569 Giving The Girls A Surprise
She stood there, leaning on the edge of my chariot while letting her hair fly with the wind. She seemed to be there for a long time already, as a tinge of boredom appeared on her face.
“How long since you finished?” I looked outside, and the world was quiet and peaceful and empty.
The people who filled this place went to the capital to take part in the work there.
“Almost six hours… Or was it ten? I dunno,” she shrugged, “now we can work over the next batch.”
“Next batch?” I thought before checking my messages. The nymph lady already sent me a message of her readiness to deliver the next batch. She also asked about the wood.
From her question, I got the feeling that she spoke with one of the experts she sent over to me. Or else why would she ask in such enthusiasm about the amount I could deliver and start mentioning price tags?
She didn’t even ask if I got enough high grade woods or not!
“Bring your boys over here,” I said before adding, “we are going for a ride somewhere else.”
“North or south?” she asked, but I simply smiled in a mysterious way.
“Just bring them here, and make sure to bring more if you can.”
“Ok…” she was about to ask about where we were going, but for a second there she hesitated before seemingly dropping the question.
From my face she seemed to get a rejection before even asking! Girl, don’t blame me for keeping my surprise a surprise.
I waited, and during the next hour, she returned back with a large number of her boys.
Last time she had a few thousands helping her. But this time the number grew to be in the tens of thousands.
“This won’t work,” if they were a few thousands, then my chariot could accommodate them. But right now it feels impossible to do that.
“Listen up, a portal will open and you will have to pass through it first. Once there, don’t wander around before my arrival, got it?”
I motioned for Angelica to come on board. Yet while she was doing that, I saw a flying dragon coming fast with two silhouettes on its back.
“I heard you are preparing a surprise,” Hilary was the one sitting with the dragon rider girl. Once she came near the chariot, she jumped and added, “so why not inviting me? Or did you forget about me?”
“Girl, how can I ever forget about you? I was just going to hide things until I complete the gift,” I rolled my eyes while she stood beside Angelica.
I had to know it from the beginning. These two were now considered so close. So if Angelica knew something, she wouldn’t delay to deliver the news over to Hilary.
“Don’t try to give reasons, I’ll first see the surprise before deciding,” she crossed her arms in such a childish way while Angelica nodded from the side like a fool.
These two girls… “Fine, stay here and be prepared to see something you have never seen before.” ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
I opened a portal from the Krishn world interface. “Enter now, and don’t forget to not wander around until my arrival.”
I feared they would move for a long distance when I arrived. After all, the races didn’t get to know my boys, and the time difference would have turned chaotic if I didn’t warn them about this.
“Why are you stressing over this?” Hilary just heard this once, but it was the second time for Angelica to hear me say this, “where are we going exactly?”
“You’ll see,” I mysteriously said while watching the tens of thousands of their men go through the portal. It took roughly an hour for them to pass through my portal, which meant twenty hours passed back there.
“It’s time,” once everyone vanished through the portal, it was our time to move as well, “prepare yourself to see… This heaven!”
I paused intentionally for a few seconds as we passed through the portal. And the moment the Krishn world came into sight, the two girls gasped.
“This…” Angelica looked at me before looking at Hilary. Hilary was more shocked than hers, as she knew more than Angelica.
She knew how hard it was to get a single decent piece of wood. And in front of her were lots of logs, an ocean of trees rising at the horizon in all directions.
“This… It’s a new world, right?!!” Hilary was fast to reach such a conclusion, and she guessed it right.
“It’s our world from now on,” I said, “I heard it’s known as a singularity world, one that’s located in the heart of a black hole.”
I just said what I heard from Isac, as if I knew such deep information from the start.
“Damn! This… This…” Hilary was deeply moved by this world. I could relate to how she was feeling. After all this wasn’t just a world of trees and wood.
A new world meant endless possibilities.
“And there is one more bonus… The time here runs differently from our world,” I said while pointing at the far away groups of humans, “we waited an hour for them to get here. But to them, twenty hours passed.”
“…!!!”
I could see the shock over their faces. However I was concerned with the force we sent here before coming.
They walked away and didn’t listen to my warnings. The result was as expected! They were surrounded now by many races, and a fight would erupt at any given moment.
“Stop!” I moved fast and appeared on top of their heads, “we are all on the same side here.”
My words landed and the one to get terrified with them was the races. My humans already were familiar with me. But those races only saw the brutal side from me.
“What’s going on here?” Hilary asked while pointing towards the chaotic situation that I just solved.
“The humans, your forces didn’t listen to my warning even when I repeated it twice,” I rolled my eyes while the look on Angelica’s face was priceless.
