Death… And Me

Chapter 859 - Duties

Chapter 859 - Duties

The disciples in the Blacksmith and Formation Halls were called by Rean a few days later. After that, he passed them the blueprints of several things he wanted them to produce. "These are the blueprints for the antenna parts I need all of you to help me with. They are components at the Earth Low, Earth Middle, and Earth High-level that I know you guys can make. As for the rest, Qia, Dian, Srevil, Juo, Govin, and I will work on them." Juo and Govin were the two Earth Peak-level blacksmiths that Rean found in Freedom City.

One of the disciples of the Blacksmith Hall looked at the list and couldn't help but ask, "From what you wrote here, it seems like you'll just build 20 antennas. Isn't that way too little? Wringan Continent is very big, even if it isn't one of the best continents out there. These antennas wouldn't be able to cover even a tenth of the north side where we live."

Rean nodded, saying, "That's the plan. You must understand that it isn't enough for the Spiritual Signal Antennas and their controlling devices to simply work here. We need to test them in several different situations. What will we do if we find a critical issue, but we've already distributed all the antennas? Wouldn't we need to go back and recover all the equipment back? That would be a huge waste of time."

The disciple understood, saying, "I see...that's fine then. We'll start working on these parts straight away."

"Good!" Rean was satisfied with the answer. "The Formation Hall's disciples should work on the runes and formations that I passed as well. Since only 20 Spiritual Signal Antennas are being made, I want all your tasks to be done in at most two days. Do you all understand?"

"Yes, Elder Rean!" The disciples from both halls immediately left with Rean's blueprints. Well, it wasn't only his blueprints. Qia, Dian, Juo, Govin, and Srevil also came up with more ideas and helped improve the antenna even more. A good example was the Spiritual Energy Stabilizer Formation that Dian provided.

Rean's group didn't waste time either. Other than the nights that were dedicated to cultivation, they spent the rest of their time crafting the runes and formation parts of the devices that controlled the antennas or even the antenna parts themselves.

Thanks to the combined effort between the cultivators of both halls, the antennas were really completed two days later, much to Rean's happiness. "Great!"

Qia, who looked a little tired, took the chance to say, "It's good that we finished them so quickly. However, you're not planning to leave with them straight away, right?"

Rean looked back at Qia, asking in response, "Why not?"

"I knew it!" Qia couldn't help but sigh after that. "You really forgot the difference in cultivation between you and the rest. Look at us. We're too tired to do anything else anymore. Give everyone a few days off. We haven't stopped ever since you started working on it."

Only then did Rean stop and pay attention to everyone's condition. Sure enough, he and Govin still looked fine. However, both Rean and Govin were at the Nascent Soul Realm. Of course, Govin was already over 200 years old. Nevertheless, that age for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was the same as an ordinary human in his early forties. His cultivation only gave him an extra boost.

"Oh...my bad, my bad." Rean then smiled before saying, "Everyone, take some rest for the next three days. We will head out to put the antennas down after that."

Liza and everyone else immediately cheered!

"Yay! I can finally sleep!"

"I'm definitely going to eat out!"

"I'll go with you."

"Hey, I heard a disciple saying that a cultivator opened a restaurant in Freedom City. Let's go there and check it."

"Oh! They're really fast, huh? Well, a restaurant in a developing city would obviously be a good business. After all, a lot of work makes you hungry as hell."

The disciples left the building where the Communication System was being made while talking about Freedom City. That, of course, made Rean a little curious. "Govin, Dian, Srevil, Juo, you can head out as well. There's no point in staying here while the disciples aren't around to learn."

Dian and the others were obviously happy with that. "Then, we will take our leave."

Of course, there was one exception, which was Govin. "I would rather stay and work some more on the Communication System. Is that fine?" Sure enough, he wasn't tired, just like Rean, so he wanted to learn even more.

Rean shook his head as he replied, "No can do. Even if you aren't tired physically, you must rest mentally. I don't want anyone working in the next three days. This is a Sect Elder's order. Understood? If you break this order, I'll send you out of the sect."

Without much choice, Govin could only accept that.

After he and the others left, only Rean and Qia were left behind in the building. Rean then took the opportunity to ask, "How about it? Do you want to go to Freedom City to check out that restaurant they were talking about? We have never had someone good at cooking during our travels, after all."

However, Qia grabbed Rean's robe with a savage expression. "To hell with the food! What I want is something completely different." Soon after, she pulled him back to their room. Rean was surprised to see that. Qia looked tired just a moment ago, so where did that go? A few moments later, Rean came to understand that Qia was very frustrated...or, to be more specific, sexually frustrated.

"You won't escape me today. Ever since we got back together after the war, we had been working, working, and working even more. You better fulfill your marital duties today," Qia said with a playful smile.

Before Rean could answer, the girl was all over him already. As for what happened next, anyone would be able to tell even without seeing it first hand.
