Chapter 361 Speed Things Up
Chapter 361 Speed Things Up
"Hey, you! Did you miss me or something?" I asked as Eliza cuddled her face into my neck.
"I know you are really busy, so let me just enjoy this, and then you can go!" Eliza giggled, and I kissed her cheek as I stroked her hair.
"Just make sure to help Olivia get what I am asking for. I am using the wasteland to make a monster town, and now it is covered in forest, but I need some food for the girls to start," I explained, and Eliza looked up at me with an evil grin.
"I can think of a few people that we can feed to them," Eliza giggled but then yelped when I pinched her cute soft bum and then gave it a playful slap, but that just made her cuddle into my arms even more. "When are you going to come home and have some fun? Chili really misses you too, and she promises not to hiss at your big growth this time!"
"I am sure she does, but I need to get this done as soon as possible. I am also worried about Rem and Lily, so I need to get to the Underworld and talk to this Black King that I learned about," I explained, and Eliza sighed as she pulled away slightly.
"Fine, but you better not be gone too long, or I might have to come down there and get you myself," Eliza said, and I grinned as I kissed her.
"I will be sure to hurry back, my love," I said, and Eliza giggled as she slipped out of my arms and walked back to her garden, where Olivia was already through.
With a quick wave, Olivia's portal was closed, and I turned to my portal that was open just over the top of Lorient, but I turned the portal so it was flat and got my own look down at the town. This one was small, like the first town of Vaal, and I could see that everyone was already gathered in the center of the town, divided up. Word must have spread through the Vine about what I was doing, and this was going to help speed things up immensely.
Since I already had the layout in my head of the town, thanks to my pets, I prepared all my spells ahead of time, using my Vision Runes to look at the signs that each group was holding up. When everything was ready, I jumped into the portal and fell down from the sky into the center of town. The moment I landed, magic and cat spirits burst from me in all directions, and for the next hour, I was a blur as I worked.
First came the town walls, which I just ran along the edge of the town, and the moment I hit a corner, the wall just sprang up. I had to be careful to not make it too high, or the people would feel claustrophobic, and the last thing I wanted was for them to want to leave.
Next came the roads, and I just ran along in a zigzag pattern, and as I ran, the cobblestone just appeared behind me. It was a bit more difficult to make the roads go up and down hills, but I managed, and soon the town had a nice road system.
After that came the buildings, and I just repaired the old ones and placed new ones where I wanted them in my head, and they just appeared. The first few were a bit shoddy since I was trying to do so many, but I quickly got the hang of it, and soon the town was starting to take shape. The new piping for water and waste went in, and all the glyphs and enchantments that I had used before.
The final touch was the fountain in the center of town, and I just focused on the image in my head, and it just appeared. Water started flowing from it immediately, and I grinned as I stepped back to look at my work.
The women were still all being cleaned by the cat spirit, but I took this time to gaze around each group, marking one out of each of them. When I did, the women would look directly at me and smile as they walked over to join me. Each of them told me a bit about them and their jobs which I wrote them down in my book while also doing a quick sketch of each. Considering how many women had already made it into the book, having faces to go with the names was almost just as important, and I was also a fairly good artist.
When everyone was done, I gathered the women that I had chosen, and I had a short talk with them all about why I picked them and what I was hoping from each of them. Most of the girls just nodded excitedly, more interested in the new clothes they got, but there was one that slid over to my side.
Her name was Ves, but she seemed more interested in me than in the clothing that I had made for her. I at first assumed that she was just looking to get something sexual out of me, but when she spoke, I found out that was only half of it! She was Blacksmith, but she had just returned from Northwall a day ago from Listenia's shop, and I guess Listenia and Elfinia were talking me up or something.
"So, you are the one who took down that big monster south of Northwall and saved the Lich Queen, Morgana, right?" Ves asked, and I nodded. "I am not sure if you remember, but I am Ves. I am a Blacksmith, but I am also a Weaver. I just returned from Listenia's shop in Northwall, and she described you to Elfinia, and Elfinia described you to me."
"I see. What did Listenia say about me?" I asked, and Ves shrugged.
