Nate

**Nate** (涅特), Demon Realm mechanic master, president of Bloody Empire Mechanic Alliance. He is of the Mammon Family (see note below).

## Appearance

A few days later, Chen Rui was about to go to Turia's laboratory when he suddenly received a notice. This notice was sent by Nate, the president of the Bloody Empire Mechanic Association and the top mechanic master of the Demon Realm. Nate asked him to visit the president's office.

Nate would be behind the closed door to comprehend about mechanics from time to time previously. These days, he happened to finish his session. Perhaps he wanted to see Chen Rui after hearing about his magical talent (magic eyes).

Nate's appearance was a middle-aged man in his forties. He had a burly figure, a square face, thick eyebrows, a mustache, and a faint deterrence momentum. The Analytical Eyes showed that his Comprehensive Strength Assessment had reached the peak stage of the Great Demon King.

Nate did not try to get Chen Rui to appraise the equipment or ask other questions. His first sentence was, "I'm Nate. Mammon, the strongest mechanic master of the Demon Realm."

This tone revealed strong self-confidence and dominance. It had the momentum: Who else is the Demon Realm's top person besides me? Then his second sentence was actually, "I asked you here for only one matter. Are you willing to be my apprentice?"

## Story

*See also: /Story*
Nate had previously raised many alchemy geniuses, only to murder them and harvest their talents for himself. Nate once tried to harvest Fonsaq's talents, even sending Teris and others to kill his family, but Fonsaq fell into the Poison Cloud Abyss and escaped, using the new name of Skye.

When Chen Rui arrives to the Bloody Empire under the guise of Richard, his magic eyes talent catches the attention of Nate, who desires to harvest the skill for himself. Chen says his magic eyes will be undergoing a mutation and says he needs time to rest. While he is 'resting', he spends three days with Dark Demon installing speakers all over Bloody Empire ultimately to expose Nate in a trap.

Chen and Nate then travel to the 4th floor of the Book Collection Hall, and Chen says his magic eyes have finally undergone the ultimate mutation after accumulating the knowledge in the 4th floor worlds and demigod territory. Nate then tries to harvest the talent, but it turns out Chen had a microphone installed in the room connected to the public speakers, thereby Nate's true intentions to the whole world. Richard then 'self-detonates' (Chen Rui escaped via Star Gate), injuring Nate. But with the public indignant at Nate, Raizen sentences Nate to life imprisonment and removes his title as president of the Mechanic Alliance.

In fact, with Chen Rui's power, it was not difficult to kill Nate. The difficulty was to let this top master lose his reputation and be completely ruined. Otherwise, even if Nate died, he would still be a martyr who would be respected for ages, but now it was different. This perfect trick of ‘everyone knows' made the martyr become a "bad guy" with a bad reputation for ages.

Chen Rui imitated this strategy from the plots in the comics and movies he had seen before. In the end, he did not kill Nate, but he gave Nate a "survival route".

However, this survival route was not smooth. Nate who survived had to face all the people who knew his conspiracy, including all the masters and mechanics in the association.

Nate had himself to blame because he arrogantly said so many words in order to crush Chen Rui's will. Especially the sentence, "The mechanics or masters in this Mechanic Association are actually the food I raised in captivity." All the mechanics had felt the crisis and indignation.

What is a public enemy? Now is the time for this guy to face all the anger of his "food".

Even if Raizen did not order the execution of Nate, who was a royal family member, the notorious president would be ashamed to set foot in the mechanic world again, let alone serve as the president. However, Raizen would definitely calm the public's anger, unless he wanted the entire Bloody Empire's Mechanic Association to become void without any masters or talents.

When Chen Rui revealed Nate's crime of harming Fonsaq just now, he deliberately added the sentence betrayed by Teris. This was not a lie. Master Fonsaq once said that when he asked for help from Teris, his whereabouts were exposed to Nate. The reason why Chen Rui emphasized this sentence was obviously to drag Teris into the trouble.

## Mammon Royal Family

* Nate is actually not part of the Samael Family
* Later it is stated that he is of the Mammon Royal Family
* This makes sense since Mammon is the ruling family of Bloody Empire

The original text from Chapter 258 reads:

* 霍福德没有选择锻造径直来到了制甲的制作台前从空间戒指中拿出了一大块兽皮开始熟练地切割起来。
* 安德森大师瞳孔骤然收缩果然是双系精通！而且金属和皮革的双系精通包括那些眼熟的法正是他的老对涅特所拥有的难道这个霍福德......是涅特的弟子？
* 涅特是萨麦尔王族霍福德同样如此。安德森越想越觉得可能年不见涅特竟然调教出一个这样的天才弟子！

This is translated as:

* Horford didn't choose to forge and went straight to the armor crafting workdesk. He took a large piece of beast hide from his space ring and began to cut it skillfully.
* Master Anderson's pupils suddenly contracted. *He is actually a dual-specializations master! Also, the specializations of metal and leather, including the familiar methods are exactly what my rival Nate has....is he a disciple of Nate?*
* *Nate is also a dual master like Samuel Royal Family's Horford.*Anderson felt that it was more plausible as he thought. *After not seeing Nate for many years, he actually taught such a genius disciple!*

## Cultivation

Power is at the intermediate stage of the Great Demon King? Oh, your strength and spirit power are both at the intermediate stage of the Great Demon King. Your speed and physical strength are at the early stage of the Great Demon King."

### Alchemy

Nate was a duo-specialized master who envied the Trio-master Arthur. Of the three specialties in mechanics, Nate was lacking in proficiency with accessories.
