In the end, the prosthetic arm proved its worth.
It was sturdy, moved with precision, and wasn’t too heavy.
Of course, that was relative.
It wasn’t exactly light.
If I relaxed my muscles, my body would tilt to the side due to the prosthetic’s weight.There were other inconveniences, but I had no choice but to accept them.
Cluna handled the rest of the detailed examination.
She was the one who had implemented the magic nerve bundles, and she had even contributed to the technical aspects.
Good at magic and technology.
What couldn’t she do?
But it wasn’t unbelievable.
She had dwarf comrades, and she had lived a long life.
“Thank you, Cluna. I can manage now, thanks to you.”
“It was nothing, Commander.”
“No, I have to express my gratitude.”
“Then I’ll accept your feelings.”
I silently looked at my arm.
The black metal prosthetic, moving at my will, made me realize once again.
This was a game.
I had no idea how I ended up possessing the Time Stop Cultivator, but I needed to rebuild the Royal Knights and unite the Alliance.
I looked around.
Only Cluna and I were in the office.
As a precaution, I had asked Cluna to create a barrier.
In other words, we were completely alone.
“Alright, what do you think about this?”
A few days ago, right after testing the prosthetic’s performance, I received a letter.
Not just any letter, but a secret letter sealed with both magic and technology.
The content was simple.
They requested to borrow the Table of Equality for a secret meeting of the Alliance.
A meeting of the multi-racial Alliance…
In the game setting, meetings were frequently held at the Table of Equality but after the Royal Knights’ collapse, none had been held until the protagonist rebuilt them.
In other words, the Alliance was looking for an opportunity to join forces once again and that wasn’t a bad thing.
If the Alliance was revived they could properly oppose the demons.
Of course, that was assuming everything went well.
Cluna, however, expressed a negative opinion.
“If the Alliance is so easily swayed by a single knight order, it’s better off not existing.”
“You’re not wrong.”
Perhaps because of her vast experience, Cluna believed it was better not to waste their energy on something so unreliable.
She had a point.
It could actually weaken them.
If the Alliance was re-established, some would inevitably try to hinder our activities.
Of course, we could silence them with overwhelming achievements, but…
As the saying goes, the most dangerous enemies are those within.
If those we considered allies betrayed us at a crucial moment, we could crumble instantly.
“But we need the Alliance.”
“If you say so, Commander.”
“I apologize.”
But I had no choice but to rebuild the Alliance because of the demons.
This game, oddly enough, required uniting all the races.
If they failed to do so, most endings led to either a bad end or a normal end.
I wondered why they made a simple erotic game so complicated.
At first, I had enjoyed it.
It had many choices for an erotic game, and the gameplay was quite good.
But after conquering all the heroines and uniting all the races through tears and hardship to achieve the good ending…
I never dreamed I would get the Time Stop Breeding Uncle ending.
Those bastards wasted all my time.
The emptiness and anger I felt were beyond imagination.
But putting aside my personal feelings, I had to face reality.
If it hadn’t been for the Time Stop Breeding Uncle… to achieve the good ending, all races had to unite.
Each race had unique characteristics that were essential in the final battle.
In other words, like it or not, rebuilding the Alliance was crucial for a good ending.
And the first step was rebuilding the Royal Knights.
After the Royal Knights’ collapse, the Alliance became useless, and then the demons invaded, leading to their destruction.
“Thinking positively, this means the Royal Knights’ influence has grown stronger.”
“Yes, but… there will be resistance.”
“That’s true.”
Some might say, “How could they not cooperate when a common enemy is at their doorstep?”
Unfortunately, that’s exactly what they wouldn’t do.
Even in modern history, there were those who betrayed others, saying, “If I can’t have it, I’ll destroy it.”
Even if it meant their own demise.
The 12 Tribes and the Dwarf Kingdom were a prime example.
They were infamous for their rivalry, engaging in territorial disputes even with demons present.
It would be even worse for races we hadn’t interacted with and the elves, due to the World Tree issue, were openly hostile towards the Royal Knights.
“It’s a good thing we have the upper hand.”
“Yes, we have the achievements to back us up.”
“That’s right.”
The rescue of the Dwarf Kingdom, the subjugation of the 12 Tribes’ traitors, and the repulsion of the True Demon attack.
The forces we had repelled were enough to destroy a nation.
So, we had the leverage and those who had been observing from afar had lost theirs.
They never dreamed the Royal Knights would still be standing.
I couldn’t blame them.
Even I never imagined we would be able to rebuild so quickly.
Plus, thanks to the support of the three races, our situation had improved significantly.
We could negotiate on equal footing.
I nodded.
We would hold the Alliance meeting at Lionheart Fortress.
To take control.
“But why keep it a secret from everyone?”
“Just in case.”
“Just in case?”
“Yes, I know you want to trust everyone, but there will be those who prioritize their own race’s future.”
I nodded.
One of the reasons people joined the Royal Knights was for the benefit of their own race.
Bayard was a prime example.
I understood.
“But I think we should tell everyone.”
“They might betray us.”
“I believe they won’t. And if we keep accumulating secrets… we’ll eventually lose trust in each other.”
It might sound idealistic, but I believed a commander should trust their members and that was how I had led them until now.
Thanks to that, we were able to successfully rebuild the Royal Knights.
So, I would stick to my methods.
Cluna, who had been looking at me, smiled faintly and bowed her head.
“I apologize, Commander. I overstepped my bounds…”
“No, it’s fine. It was just advice based on your experience.”
“Yes, Commander.”
“Did something similar happen in the past?”
Cluna had a lot of experience.
That was why she sometimes acted in ways I didn’t understand.
Like now.
While it was good to be cautious, excessive caution could be detrimental.
Perhaps her actions stemmed from her past experiences.
Cluna didn’t say anything.
I quickly added,
“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to. I won’t force you.”
“No, it’s fine.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, it just brought back some old memories…”
“Old memories… You must have gone through a lot.”
I wasn’t saying it was a bad thing.
Thanks to Cluna’s experiences, we had overcome many difficult situations.
But I didn’t want to lose the trust of my comrades.

); }
Perhaps she understood my intentions.
Cluna immediately deactivated the barrier.
I then instructed her to summon all the members to the Table of Equality.
“If the commander has summoned us, we must go.”
“I missed the last one!”
“You were on duty then.”
One by one, the members gathered at the round table.
They all seemed to have been training in the courtyard.
After confirming everyone was present, I spoke.
“I called you all here today for an important matter.”
“What is this important matter?”
“Actually, there’s going to be an Alliance meeting.”
At those words, everyone fell silent.
I thought to myself,
Should I have kept it a secret…?
