Chapter 553 Meeting Isac
Chapter 553 Meeting Isac
“Dammit!” I didn’t get used to the abnormal strength in my right arm. I didn’t plan for any of this to happen. And I ended up summoning another dragon, landing over its back with my left hand, trying to not harm anyone this time.
“Phew! That was… Damn close!” as the dragon took my body away from the ground by just a few metres, I could finally heave a sigh of relief.
“Come back,” I called back that injured dragon which I hit out of coincidence.
Underneath it, a group of smashed bodies soaked in their blood was left there. I could only look at them and inwardly sigh.
Such an accident wasn’t intended, but I had nothing to say here but to wait for Isac to come running from far when she heard the news.
“You… Woke up already?” she raised an eyebrow, as if she expected me to sleep much longer or something.
“What? Disappointed?”
“No, it’s just… I knew you were going through a cultivation breakthrough and that usually takes a week or so to end.”.
“A… What?!!” This time her words shocked me. I never expected it would be such a thing. I thought it was just an upgrade in my energy level thanks to the technique I mastered.
But it seemed it was much bigger than what I thought.
“What? Don’t tell me you got such an upgrade by coincidence?!!” It was her time to get shocked by what I said. And I had nothing else to say but to smile.
“Damn! You are damn lucky! You know that?!”
“Luck has nothing to do with what I achieved so far,” I rolled my eyes, “it’s determination and ambition.”
“It’s luck, don’t try to cover that up,” she chuckled, “anyway, it’s great to have such a lucky boss, right?”
“Boss?! Girl! I’m your lord!”
“A lord who spends most of his time sleeping, right?” She laughed and I couldn’t say anything back even when I felt a little insult from what she said.
I wasn’t that lazy kind of lord. I was just… A bit unlucky actually at the recent events.
Unlike what she thought, I wasn’t considering myself anything near lucky.
“What happened here then?” she started to look at the chaos created by me down below.
“It’s just… an unlucky event,” I sighed and didn’t delve into anything of what happened. “Can you handle this? Ah by the way, I’ll bring much better ore. So can you wait until I bring these here?”
“Ore? We already have a nice grade one,” she said in a weird tone, “what’s the point in spending too much over this? We already have a nice grade here.”
“Not enough,” I knew this might seem a trivial matter, but against the yet to come natural disasters that would hit the world fiercely, I had to be sure my capital would stand erect and had no harm in any possible way.
Plus the higher the grade of the ore, and if it contained energy absorption and concentration properties, the better it would be for my people living here.
The foundation process wasn’t just related to the buildings in the capital, but it could also help in accelerating the cultivation progress of everyone.
Not to mention some ores had a role to play in strengthening defences and even aiding my shield.
“But I already gave the order to prepare to lay the foundations!”
“Delay such a process then.”
“You know you are going to delay us? I have a tight schedule, do you even know that?”
“I don’t know,” I laughed, “I was sleeping, did you forget?”
“You now know! And you can’t come back and delay my work in such a way!”
“This is for the better, just trust me on this,” I patted her on the shoulder with my left arm, acting more cautious to not harm her with my right arm.
“Sigh! What a troublesome dude you are!” she rolled her eyes, making me laugh again.
“You are mean,” she punched me on the chest, before turning around and leaving. “Don’t forget, I won’t wait for you more than one day! Do you get it?”
“Who is the boss here?” I said amidst my laughs and she responded with a childish act of sticking out her tongue.
“I’m the one who is doing your reconstruction anyway, so don’t try and play with me as I’m a serious Selvator dude!”
“Girl, you aren’t even close to any dude I know,” I teased her, making her stick out her tongue again before hurrying to leave.
I watched her act and control the messy situation down below before taking my leave.
I had to reach a place away from the blockage here.
But just before I left, I recalled something.
“Damn! I forgot about my room!” I slapped my forehead, while hurrying to open it.
“It reached… Over sixty-seven million in just these days… Impressive!” I looked at the number before sighing.
I had no time to care about this place. And as I opened the room, I was met with lots of messages.
I feared that the atmosphere here would be cold and filled with negativity and anger. However when I read through the latest messages here, I got to see how I was deeply wrong.
These people… Sigh! They dealt with this as a place to get to know each other, have new friends, and even try to find lovers.
I looked at all this fun and closed it. “I have to find Hilary and start appointing everyone as mods there,” I got no patience to deal with the simple questions there.
I created this room to act as a means to communicate with others and recruit them. I planned to expand my authority over the world of humans using it, but I never planned to do it myself.
I had trusted subordinates. They might be busy at this point, but who said they didn’t have their trusted aides under them?
