Uninhabited Island Level 9999: Creating the Strongest Island Nation with Uninhabited Island Developm

Chapter 117 – Child of Odin

A black-haired man appeared before us.

A scholar ―― or rather, an alchemist’s attire stands out. He is tall and slender with narrow eyes. … Hmm, I wonder if he can see properly.

It seems that he is a half-elf.

“Aren’t you Theodore-sama?”

“Hello, Skor-sama. I heard rumors in the wind about your return, but I didn’t know it was true.”

“Yes, thanks to Rasty-san’s help.”

“Oh, with the help of the Third Prince. Is this fate, I wonder?”

Theodore looked at me with his narrow eyes.

“Theodore-san, I came here to learn about agriculture and such. I heard that you were a reliable person… and you’re a companion of Ludmila and Eduardo, right?”

“Oh, you know about them! Are both of them doing well?”

“Edu is on my island. Ludmila is planning to come.”

“What! I had no idea that was the case… It seems there is movement in the World Scriptures. Now, the world is tilting and heading in a bad direction. The world will once again head towards destruction.”

This person is casually saying something outrageous. Considering he’s a legendary figure, he sure sounds convincing. It seems real.

“The one choosing destruction is the ‘Empire.’ So, how about stopping it with Ludmila and Edu, Theodore?”

Havamar, who was listening to the conversation nearby, intervened… is that okay? She’s the Demon King after all.――No, it’s too late.

“Oh, a cute young lady with cat ears. Hmm…? Oh my, this is surprising. It’s been three hundred years, hasn’t it? My arch-enemy, Odin-dono!”

“Nya! Don’t, don’t hold my hands, it’s creepy!”

Theodore was firmly holding Havamar’s hand. Hey, where did the hostility go!? And, isn’t the distance between them getting closer?

 ―― Wait, Odin?

It’s a name I’m hearing for the first time.

“Odin-dono, are you starting the Holy Demon War again!?”

“Let go of my hand, you idiot! I only inherited the name Havamar from my father, Odin! My father has long since disappeared from this world.”

“Oh… I see. That’s unfortunate. Your father had a similar appearance ―― but I didn’t know he had a daughter.”

“We are siblings.”

“Huh?”

“Rasty and I are Odin’s children. Long ago, our father was betrayed by the Empire… His child was taken away, and I was given the name of the Demon King. That’s the truth!”

Oh, so that’s how it was. I’m Odin’s son!? Wait, who is Odin!? …Ah, so it’s no wonder I don’t look like my stupid big brothers. Personality-wise and all.

I’m starting to get a glimpse of the whole story behind the Holy Demon War.

“Yes, Odin once enriched the world. He created a country and was the king of mankind. But that was a story long ago. People chose independence and gave birth to many countries such as the Dvorak Empire. At that point, gods became unnecessary… So Odin became the Demon King. And that’s how the present situation came to be.”

“Alright, I understand. I will defeat you.”

Havamar, who was unusually angry, generated the Holy Spear Gungnir and took a stance. Hey, hey, she’s really angry. As her big brother, I need to stop her.

“Stop it, Havamar.”

I delivered a chop to her head.

“Unya…! Ah, big brother… This guy is our enemy.”

“No, I don’t feel any hostility from him. Just like Edu and Ludmila, Theodore here is the same. I don’t sense any ill intent. He’s just enjoying provoking you.”

“Gah…”

Havamar dropped her shoulders with a ‘funyaan’ sound. I can understand how she feels. Anyway, let’s put aside the Holy Demon War for now. Theodore’s power is necessary for the development of the island.
