My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start - Chapter 596
On the second floor of Blackmoon Castle, in Margaret’s room.
“Where should I start? Before I went to the royal city, Master Antonio brought me to the City of Steel and the Floating City of Stanley. Many things happened in those two cities. In the City of Steel, I created a tower that leads to the sky. Its name is—”
“The Tower of Babel.”
Margaret was holding a quill and writing on a piece of brown paper. Watson sat on the sofa and crossed his hands as he explained to Margaret. Unfortunately, he was interrupted by Margaret before he could finish his words.
“I know about the Tower of Babel that you built in the City of Steel. After all, many Blackmoon Knights have gone there to serve as gatekeepers. After returning, their strength has increased a lot. I heard that you even have a mighty black dragon there! I have recorded those in Watson, the Hero’s Biography, in the tenth volume, Climbing the Tower.”
Margaret casually pulled out a beautifully-shaped book from a bookshelf at her side as she spoke. The carefully-wrapped book had a spiral-shaped tower on its surface. It depicted a youth holding a long sword raising his head to look at the top of the tower. It looked very imposing.
“The tenth volume? I didn’t expect your novel has been published so many times now.”
Watson praised her as he looked at the well-packaged novel. He said, “Since you already know what happened to me in the City of Steel, then I’ll tell you the story about the floating city. While I was there—”
“You saved the sea folks’ princess and became their savior. You helped the sea folks build the underwater Dragon Palace Network, which runs through the whole kingdom. I recorded those in the 11th volume, the Man who Became the King of the Sea.”
Margaret took out another book. It had the same exquisite scene, the same thickness, and the same young man holding a long sword. However, the background had changed from the tower to the bottomless sea.
“It seems like you have already written about what happened to me on the road. Then let me tell you about what happened in the capital.”
“I have also written that part in the 12th volume, the Royal Academy’s Competition, where you showed your talent. You defeated one genius after another and became acknowledged as the number one genius in the Holy Dragon Kingdom, conferred by the king. You were even bestowed with a marriage alliance with Princess Kiana! In the volumes 13th through 15th, I’ve written the story of your rebellion against the king. Now, I’m ready to write the 16th volume. I’ve just thought of a name for that volume. It will be called Conquering the Elves. The content is mainly about the process of you subduing the elves and other kingdoms that exist on the continent—”
“Wait a minute.”
While Margaret was speaking with assurance, Watson could not help but reach out to interrupt her. He had a puzzled look on his face. “Margaret, how do you know so much about me?”
There were many things in Margaret’s book that he did not tell his family. For example, the details of his fight with King Landhar III involved the gods. If he told his family, they would be worried. He did not know how Margaret managed to write that part of the book.
“Watson, have you forgotten that before you left, you gave me a Pen of Truth? Its power is to turn what you write into reality! Furthermore, I am a professional writer. Even if I don’t know much about your deeds, I can add some dramatic content based on the facts and adapt it.”
“That’s right, my honorable master. “The completion of those works is inextricably linked to my assistance.” As Margaret spoke, the quill in her hand jumped up from the parchment, bent slightly in the air, and spoke in a human voice. “It has been two years and one month since you left Mount Creation. I’ve missed you so much! Fortunately, you’re back now. When I miss you, I write down my emotions about missing you with my pen. Of course, during that process, I made some small artistic modifications.”
Artistic modifications?
Hearing those words and seeing the cheerful Pen of Truth, Watson had a strange expression on his face. A bad feeling arose in his heart. “Margaret, lend me those books in your hands.”
Taking the books that Margaret had just displayed, Watson flipped through them. The more he read, the uglier his expression became.
[Watson held a long sword in his hand and shouted at Christina, a young girl from the Sword Saint family. “What kind of ability is it to pass the maze? Even if I pass through it, I will only be ranked behind the current Sword Saint. People will only remember the first place and not the second place. I want to turn the dungeon into a tower. That way, I’ll be the first to pass through the dungeon.”]
[Christina threw herself into Watson’s arms and said, “You’re so bold. I like that so much.”]
Those were the contents of the tenth volume of Margaret’s novel, The City of Steel. Seeing that paragraph, Watson asked, “When have I ever said such a thing? Plus, Miss Christina has never done such a thing to me. You can’t just slander someone. That’s very irresponsible of you.”
“A beautiful woman is worshipping a hero. That is a typical hero novel. I didn’t write about what happened between you and Christina. I only said that she adores you. Isn’t that very normal? All the women who interacted with you have some form of admiration for you. You are the strongest genius in the kingdom and the future king. Furthermore, the people on Mount Creation love such scenes.”
Margaret picked up her teacup and took a sip. Watson was rendered speechless and continued to read.
[Standing in front of the sea with a long sword in his hand, he shouted at the sad-looking sea folks. “You sea folks have always lived a life of enslavement and bullied by humans. The Sea God you believe in has not protected you or made your situation better! I’m different. I can give you protection that the gods can’t. So believe in me. I want to be your new god.”]
[Alice could not bear the love in her heart. She threw herself into Watson’s arms and said, “You’re so brave. I like you so much.”]
What!
Watson closed the book in his hand. “Margaret, that—”
“I know what you’re trying to say. I didn’t write anything wrong. It’s no secret that Princess Alice is interested in you. The people on Mount Creation heard the rumors when they were transporting supplies for the sea folks.”
“That’s not what I’m trying to say. Why do those two paragraphs seem so similar?”
“That’s what the readers like. You don’t understand. Repetition is the charm.”
Watson put the book down. He did not intend to continue reading. In any case, those books would only write about him shouting at someone and then a certain girl throwing herself into his arms.
That could not go on. If the residents on Mount Creation treated those things written by Margaret as fact, he would feel so ashamed that he would die. He had to correct his sister’s bad writing habits.
“I can tell you in detail about the story of your 16th volume, Conquering the Elves, so stop adding fuel to the fire.”
With a cough, Watson looked at Margaret, sitting opposite him. She adjusted her posture and said, “Go ahead, I’m listening.” Just as he was about to speak, the door to the room suddenly opened with a bang.
“Watson, I’ve been looking for you for a long time. So you’re here! I’ve been on Mount Creation for a long time, and I’ve obtained a lot of things here. We can’t just reap the benefits; we should get the elven soldiers in the fortress city and hold a meeting to attack the Holy Dragon Kingdom. You can make the arrangements now. By the way, I think it’s time for you to hand over Mount Creation to me.”
It was the Elven King. At that moment, the Elven King looked completely different from before. Each of his hands held a magical staff that shone with diamond light, and on his shoulders was a basket filled with Phoenix eggs. On top of his head was a large basin filled with the sun and moon fruits. It looked very comical.
It had been a few hours since they entered Mount Creation. The Elven King had finally finished touring the scenic spots in Mount Creation with Allen and Lizst. He remembered that his purpose for coming to Mount Creation was not for leisure. Instead, he was there to occupy that place and continue to attack the kingdom with that place as his base.
