After entering the old 'Betsy', which was a hidden elevator, the silence lasted only a moment.

"How deep are we going to go down Mr. Cobbler?" -Asked the Overlord-

"Unfortunately it will take a couple of minutes, see my dear Momon, since, before our first deal, I was already feeding a much bigger project; to tell the truth, I have many more technological developments than that you have seen so far."

"Hoooo? Is that right? Have you developed them recently?"

"Hehehe no, not at all, you see, for a long time, more exactly from the youth of my grandfather, an idea came up to facilitate the work of ponies, tell me, have you ever heard the term automaton?"

Eeeeeeehhhh! Automata! Have you made automaton?!

"Hmm... if I remember correctly, I think I visited an exhibition about them in Manehattan during one of my trips, why do you ask?"

"The first automaton ever created was a work of my grandfather, his invention was revolutionary for his time, the intention was to reduce or, if possible, fully eliminate the need for ponies to carry out arduous and/or monotonous tasks, his invention could easily work a whole acre without a problem," -the pony's tone turned from jovial to harsh and bitter- "but instead of receiving the recognition he deserved, he was censured and ridiculed."

All this made the Overlord curious, he had not received anything about it in the reports.

Well that was something to be expected, an automaton is something very advanced for this society.

"But who could be so closed-minded as to ignore a technological advance like that?" -Asked Satoru with feigned incredulity-

For a moment Cobbler stared at Momon when he said these words, he simply saw him blinking like an owl, then a big smile was seen on his face.

"Umu, now I'm sure that bringing you here was the right choice!" -he replied, recovering his cheerful tone for a moment- "the one responsible for my grandfather being branded crazy and ignorant was Celestia herself; as soon as she spoke against him, he was gradually banned from all commercial circles, in protest he created a revolutionary group with the support of many of the citizens of Mustangia who knew and respected him, the movement was suppressed with violence, many perished, but thanks to them, we gained some independence, my father always hated my grandfather's inventions, so he did not follow in his hoofsteps, but I was amazed, like all my compatriots, I grew up rejecting the government of Celestia, but it was not until... let's say several years ago when the matter became more... indispensable, that's when I truly started to do something to remedy it. "

The hatred and pain in the pony's voice spiked Ainz's interest so he began to pay real attention.

"She rejected my advances in prosthetics and let's say spare parts for living beings, she name them aberrations."

"Now I understand, that's why in this place there are many more technological advances than in the rest of Equestria including the capital." -Ainz intervened-

"That is Momon Shade, that is why I decided to revive the group that my grandfather started," -at that moment the wall stopped being concrete and began to be metal- "only that my intention is not the independence of Mustangia, no, to fulfill my objective I had to improve, innovate, in short, I needed more power, I intend to overthrow Celestia and her sedentary government that prevents technological advance, I am going to change this nation," -the wall changed again, it stopped being just metal, now one full side was glass and the image behind it was amazing, when he saw the slight change in the face of his guests Cobbler continued- "I welcome you to Techquestria!"
