516 I Learnt Designs
The dragons roared in such a fierce way while I motioned to the two lovers to get on their backs and start their search.
“But boss…” Leo paused before adding, “the message system is down!”
“I’ll find a place outside of here as a base,” this was also part of my future planning of my capital.
Just depending on the ancient building of Boston and the other two cities nearby was useless. I had to rebuild the entire place, take advantage of the empty zones outside, even adding more towns and a few cities around in my capital.
My capital must not be a normal city. It should be a fortress! One that would stand alone in front of anything and triumph.
“What about us?” Sara asked.
“Like I said,” I sighed, throwing away Karoline’s problem behind my back, “we need to arrange a team to welcome the new humans. Then you can select your elites to start training under Lily’s instructions.”
“I can’t start like this,” but Lily suddenly said, “I need a lot of things first.”
“Anything you want just buy from the market, I’ll handle all the fees” I got she might need resources, items for training, and even prepare a place for such a thing.
“But…”
She was about to argue but the next moment, her eyes went wide out of surprise. She just got one billion coins. “This is the advance payment… anything else just let me know and I’ll cover any cost up.”
She froze for a long moment before finally nodding in such a happy way. “It’s enough as a start,” she said and I grinned.
“And anything else you want, you can use the help of Bulltors and high humans.”
“Are we going to use them as work labour now?!!” Hilary was already taking the opposite side of Lily.
“Do you have a better opinion?” I rolled my eyes and she seemed to get none.
“About the team…” Angelica stepped in to relieve this undesired tension, “who will deal with the incoming humans… We can use normal humans to do that, letting the elites train.”
“Good point,” the spearhead nodded.
“That’s wrong!”
“Bad point!” the spearhead shook his head, making him gain a glaring look from me to shut the hell up.
“Why?” Angelica ignored the fat dude and focused on me instead.
“They lack the good and experienced eye to recognise the good from the bad,” I said, “we need good people to lead them. Leaving things to such weak humans will bring us nothing but trouble!”
“Then I’ll take the lead on this,” Hilary hurriedly said, and Angelica followed: “Me too!”
“That’s enough,” the spearhead seemed to want to volunteer, but I cut the path over this lazy jerk by saying this. “The rest will go and prepare the training place with Lily.”
“What about the reconstruction process?” Isac asked, attracting everyone’s attention to her again.
“Who… Is he again?” Hilary seemed to grow fishy of him, pointing at Isac as if she was pointing at Lily. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“You can handle it,” I said, ignoring the question of Hilary.
“Who is he again?” But Hilary wasn’t ready to give up.
“I’m a Selvator race paragon,” Isac said in such aloof and arrogant way that made me inwardly sigh.
“And what are you doing here?” Everyone instantly turned wary of Isac, looking at him like they were looking at an enemy.
“He… Is an ex-paragon,” I had to step in to stop any bloodbath, “and now he is part of our team.”
“Damn fierce, boss! Snatching a paragon? Damn cool!” the spearhead said in admiration while others looked at me in surprise.
Even Hilary looked surprised by this.
“I got… Him back at the illusion battle,” I said in short explanation, “and now he is part of our team. He is called Isac, please treat him well.”
“Sure dude, you are now a brother to me,” the spearhead jumped as he slammed his heavy arm at Isac’s back like what he did with Leo minutes ago.
But tactfully Isac stepped aside, escaping such incoming heavy blows without the need to do extra effort.
“Damn! You are good!” the spearhead prevented himself from falling while saying this in surprise.
“Let’s get rolling boys, and girls,” I said to end this conversation here. “Go now and start working. I’ll summon the humans out there, so go down and gather up what you trust.”
I was talking to Hilary and Angelica, and the two nodded. As the chariot was emptied from everyone else but Isac, I let my chariot fly away first before saying in sincere advice:
“If you don’t end up dead in the hands of my chick, make sure your acting is flawless.”
“I’m a perfect actor! I’ve trained for years to act like a man!”
“Yes, tell me about it!” I answered her with a roll of my eyes and a long sigh.
“What? I really trained hard!” she said in defence, and I couldn’t help but comment:
“In singing and dancing? Yes, you trained damn hard to act like a man!”
“Don’t belittle my higher ups arrangements! They never trained me in these things only! I also trained in party arrangements, fashion, decorations, and even etiquette!”
“…”
Right now I knew I was fighting a losing cause! Dammit! What went wrong in their heads when they planned her training? Was someone preparing her to be the wife of his son or something?
Damn those jerks!
“What?!” she crossed her arms, and just looking at her posture made me sigh.
“What’s written must be seen!”
“Excuse me?”
“Nothing,” I shrugged, deciding to drop such a cause and not think about it for now. Hilary got the secret of the jumper and didn’t react fiercely towards it. I just hoped she would be generous and understanding to do the same with Isac.
“Have you worked before in something like this?” I asked her, tryng to get over her troublesome identity.
“I learnt designs,” she said in pride.
