Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

The mechanical robots quickly dragged Fahnin and threw him under Aldred's feet.

Fahnin looked up and was shocked when he saw the 12 year old boy. "You... are you the golem master? You cannot kill me. I am a Diamond Rank magicians. We can work together. Wait no, I will be your subordinates!"

"I don't need you specifically. I only need your memories."

The bladed robot immediately beheaded the man's head right after that statement.

And just like that, a Diamond Rank magician, feared by the warriors, died.

Corduul began to crack open the magician's head and golden tentacles came out of his arms before it stabbed into the brain.

"Any valuable information?" Aldred asked.

"Only in the category of magic spells, master. And we confirmed that the Dark Horse worked for the Count of Waralia. We also find out that the count might attack us since town leaders are not allowed to attack each other."

Aldred scoffed. "The count will find excuses to attack us sooner or later. I am not afraid of him. We have powerful army. Even if the count was an Adamantite Rank, I believe we can kill him."

Aldred was excited at that thought. With Victor's blueprint and knowledge, the mechanicum had advanced their mechanical legion every single day. Aldred had also upgraded the strength of his golem now since he was a Diamond Rank. And every day, he got stronger and stronger as he stayed in this continent.

"With the resources in this city, it should be sufficient for us to create a mechanical factory in this place," Corduul suggested.

"Do that. Work with Tarrar to transport the supplies."

Aldred and Corduul entered the city and took control of the government building. Everyone already fled the premises, but that was fine. Aldred did not need them. He did not care about this city, he only care about the resources it offers. The only city that he was willing to develop was Towbone.

Since Aldred decided to make that as his temporary home base for now and as the gate for his expansion. The other reason was because he had sympathy for Bhurud Hukhor.

Ever since Aldred received the kid's memory, it made him recall his past life.

Suddenly, roar of men came from outside. Apparently, the people had been taking arms and wanted to rebel.

Aldred raised an eyebrow. "This is new. When was the last time I see civilians rebellion?"

Since this was the world of magic and power ruled over justice, the idea of rebellion was too idealistic unless you had the power to back it up. Most rebellion happened among two powerful groups or smaller groups that formed into a big group.

But civilians? They were called civilians for a reason. They were weak and powerless. They were working class, and were basically ants for people at the top who fought bloody teeth and pulling nails every single day to get that position.

"What is your command, master?"

Aldred looked down from the window of his office. Seeing the people rising up against him was quite irritating. He did not even plan to harm their interest. In fact, he even wanted to improve their life a little.

"Kill them."

One thousand gunner robots and golems aimed their weapons at the people and began to fire.

Flames were spat out and, and in a split second, the mass of people in the street was completely covered in blood. Under the sweep of the hail of metal bullets and fire bullets, the street literally became meat mincing machine and the people down there were the cattles.

Fifty artillery robots bombarded the ones that tried to flee. The flames burned and melted the skins while the shrapnels shredded them inside and out.

Then came the bladed robots and golems, brandishing their large battle-blades they were like a blender cutting everything into millions pieces.

There were no ordinary people in this continent, almost all of the people here had Gold Rank strength. But they barely experience any fighting since they were not soldiers. So, of course no one dared to fight after they saw their friends being massacred.

"Quickly mine the materials in this city and build the factories. I want all the resource veins to dry up to fuel our expansion," Aldred said.

The next day, a large numbers of huge buildings completely made out of cold steel erected all over the place, within and without the city.

Large vehicles came and go as they transported the materials the robot had dug up.

The materials were right below the city. Corduul had set up all the mining robots in place, and they were digging non stop. Constantly, the sound of machines were ringing day and night, removing the word 'peace and quiet' from the citizen's vocabulary.

It was so loud that anyone could barely talk to each other.

Engineering robots swarmed all over the place, like ants, they worked non-stop, building munition factories after munition factories.

Every single day, tons and tons of robots, were built with the new materials. They were stronger, better, faster, and much more intelligence because they had far larger memory and processing power than before. They were also heavier.

Seeing this, the people in Marldon decided to leave. Aldred left them be. In fact, he even paid for all of them to leave this city.

When they all left, he leveled the entire town, and completely replaced all the buildings with factories.

This world might be ruled by an iron fist, but lords did not usually let their citizen go. This was because the city's population paid all kinds of tax to funds the lords' lavish lifestyle. So the more population was considered better.

Aldred had so much money already. He did not need to collect more money from tax. What he needed was resources; metals, materials, and things that could increase his strength or the strength of his army.

Every single day, Corduul's old robots were replaced with the new generations of robots.

"What about your super human project, Corduul?" Aldred asked. He had always been interested about the serum that could turn ordinary human into super human. They even manage to turn ordinary human into Diamond Rank warriors purely because of strength, speed, endurance, and physical toughness.

"The Mechanicum is also developing in that category. With the magicians help from the Ceraisian Empire, our progress is even faster than before."

"That is good. Maybe we can sell those serums in exchange for valuable resources. Some things could not be bought with gold coins alone."

It was true. Most high rank warriors and even magicians did not even consider gold coins as currency. They only accept mana crystals as they could use those to increase their own strength, perform rituals with them, and all kinds of other things.

Aldred did not had a lot of crystals with him, only gold coins, but he would find ways to gather more wealth.

He wanted to get things done quickly, but it seemed like the Count of Waralia did not make any move. This made him smile as his army increased larger by the day.

Time was on his side. The more he got time, the more advantage he had.
