A relieved look appeared on Legolas' face on seeing this.
On top Akela and Leo respectively, Legolas and Christensen went on an important trip to the headquarters of the landmark Construction Family. After stalling for a week, Legolas was now ready to ramp up his plans.
For the past week, after the end of the election, as soon as the swearing in ceremony was scheduled for a month later, he focused on his own plans.
His own plans was mainly his decision to start his own organization.
Having told the other High Officials during the first official leadership meeting, Legolas easily had his way and got a huge plot of land in one of the best locations across the planet that was colonized by the humans.
After getting the plot of land, he focused on making everything in order, making sure that the land was ready for development before furthering his plans.
The first target that came to his mind was the premier construction company in Planet Darvis, the Landmark Construction Company.
During the past 6 months before the war when he and his students engaged in different missions, they managed to take on a mission related to this renowned construction company where they were able to form a shallow connection.
This shallow connection was not enough for Legolas to visit them so brazenly though, the only reason why he did so was because of his current status.
Unlike the previous time when he came here, he was much more powerful now. Every organization in the planet respected Grade C Superhumans.
Not just that, after his exploits during the battle of the Hellfire Mountains, his reputation and renown was at an all-time high.
Literally every little kid in Planet Darvis now knew of his name.
Not just that, after gaining the 2 new titles after the war, the Planet Darvis Legend and High Official of Planet Darvis titles, his negotiation and persuasion power was at his peak, this was what gave him confidence to come.
From afar, the guards of the gigantic mansion already recognized them.
It was no longer news to the influential core in the Planet that Legolas acquired a humungous plot of land. Now with him suddenly coming with his student, the Construction Family already knew their motives long ago.
They welcomed them enthusiastically into their mansion.
Seated inside the luxurious dining room of the mansion, Legolas and his student were treated to the best delicacies that Planet Darvis had to offer.
"Meow!" A certain cat meowed excitedly.
Legolas instantly recognized the cute feline meow as he smiled brightly and looked in that direction. "Po, you miss me?"
"Meow!" "Meow!" "Meow!" The tiny cat was excited.
He could never forget it when this human and his 2 companions saved him and his siblings from the filthy hands of the beast traffickers.
The cat charged towards Legolas and jumped on him, Legolas chuckled as he rubbed his fur and head even as Po purred cutely.
The next moment, 3 other shocked feline fellows arrived.
It was like Po receiving so much love triggered their radar senses.
"Miaow!"
"Mew!"
"Mewl!"
All 3 excited feline cats charged towards them. Whereas Fo and Sho also charged towards him, Lo charged towards Christensen excitedly.
Both Summoners chuckled as they played with the 4 felines.
As this happened, Albert looked at them with a smile.
"They seem to miss you guys a lot, why didn't your 3rd come?"
"He's busy". Christensen answered as he focused on Lo. "She sure misses me".
A few minutes later, the cats scurried away after they were done eating.
Albert finally hit the nail on the head. "So, I have heard your needs already, but I need more elaborate details to get the right construction team for you".
"Can you give me details?"
Legolas smiled. "Sure".
"I intend to start an Army, not just an organization encompassing one set of supers like the Elementalist Academy and the others".
"My ambition is to create something more like the Hunter Union".
"I want my headquarters to be big enough to house thousands of supers from the 3 main classes". Legolas rubbed his chin. "As I want something more akin to a military base, I would like my headquarters to have multiple floors".
Albert was calm as he carefully took in all the details. "If that is your exact vision for it, then I think I have the perfect team for you".
"They have tons of construction models fitting your description".
"If you meet them, you can flesh it out and decide on what you want".
Carter continued as he explained more about his special construction team, even as he continually deviated into the more technical architectural parts. A few minutes later, they finalized on the work part.
Legolas rubbed his hands together. "So, what is the budget range for this?"
This was when Albert's smile became wider than ever before. "We have decided to waive the bills for this construction as a charity to your ambition".
"…" Legolas was surprised.
His surprise was not hard to understand since his ambitious construction was likely a project involving hundreds of millions if not billions of Darvis Credits.
Albert explained. "After your exploits in the Hellfire Mountains, not only did you protect our lives and others from descending into depravity and chaos, you also protected the interests of our construction company".
"By destroying the core of the Clown Society, you kept our company in business. If the Clown Society succeeded, without a doubt, we would have been forced to stop business as they fulfilled their crazy order in chaos ambitions".
"So, in essence, our company owes you a debt".
"This is our way of paying you back".
"My father already approved it".
Despite understanding the explanation, Legolas was still taken aback. 'Damn…! It's good to get power man, so many things become convenient'.
With the Landmark Construction Company so adamant on licking his boots, who was he to reject? He accepted their goodwill as they soon progressed to the end of their talk, a few minutes later, they came to an agreement.
Legolas and his student left the headquarters of the Landmark Construction Company with a special construction team following them.
Through teleportation, their journey was smooth and efficient.
Bzzz!
On arrival, like planned, Christensen took over from his master.
He was to be in charge of supervising the construction team as they mapped the land, and determined the best way to start their construction.
As soon as Christensen left, Blade met his master. "Please, can I see you?"
"Sure". Legolas smiled.
Inside an enclosed tent, Blade sat cross-legged opposite his master as he looked at him. "I don't know if you've noticed, but for the past few weeks, I've been busy in my quest of rebuilding the Pugilist Academy".
"Despite trying my best and with the overwhelming support from White Flame Eleanor, I have found it harder than anticipated to accomplish my goal".
"Seeing how much progress you've made in so little time; I don't know if you can help?" Blade fidgeted a bit.
Despite becoming a powerful Grade C Pugilist already that was at Jon Stones' level, it was already ingrained in Blade's head, this was his master. Legolas' achievement in the war increased his awe and respect for him even more.
Legolas smiled. "Of course, I can".
"In fact, I already started helping you".
"Huh?" Blade was surprised.
"I know your ambition to rebuild the Pugilist Academy, but despite that, I never had any intentions to separate from anyone of my students".
Blade frowned. "But I made Jon Stones a promise".
"I know, that is why I created an alternative option. Unlike other organizations like the Pugilist Academy, I created my army with the intention of accepting all supers of the 3 main classes including Pugilists".
"If you've noticed, the land that I acquired is bigger than expected".
"I got it for a reason".
"Instead of going out to rebuild the Pugilist Academy, join me and rebuild it here. While I will be the leader of the army as a whole, I want to create a Pugilist branch which can be a substitute for the Pugilist Academy, you can be the leader".
"That way, you'll fulfill your promise while still staying with me".
"In essence, you'll be killing 2 birds with one stone".
Blade was taken aback. "That… works?"
"Yes". Legolas grinned.
