Chapter 810 Building A Proper Village Inside My Divine Realm
-----
[Day 273]
It has been around a week since the month in the outside world began. Which has been actually four weeks here, a whole month, and we had been working hard to improve our strength, learn about our new awakened abilities, all while building a lot of houses around the ice castle as if this were Minecraft Creative Mode.
POOOF!
A new house made of stone and wood quickly emerged in front of me with a mere command by Fuyu, who used her unique System Interface to create whole buildings in mere seconds as long as she had the accumulated materials, which appeared as little icons within the system interface.
The people in the surrounding village that had been made over the month inside the divine realm cheered as they saw not only one, but a dozen of new houses emerge one after the other in quick succession, making a long line of the same-looking houses with two floors and a chimney.
"A-Amazing!"
"This is the godly power of our gods!"
"Drake-sama and Fuyu-sama!"
"Wooow!"
These people are the ones we had been welcoming in the castle for months now, a vast majority of them are former slaves with nowhere to go, but there were also refugees from villages in the verge of starving, and more that we had been finding around. There were even people we found in this zone too, a small tribe of lizardmen that had nowhere to go after the small caves where they lived were destroyed after an earthquake, and also small tribes of beast-kin, dog, wolf, and cat beast-kin. The little Cassim felt at home when he saw so many cat-kins like him.
"How about you pave the area while you're at it?" I wondered.
"Yeah, I'll do it…" Said Fuyu, as she clicked the system windows and in a few seconds, the floor within the residential areas that she just made began to change, as paved floors emerged in square-shaped blocks one after the other until-
POOF!
"Ah, I don't have more Stone!" Sighed Fuyu.
The paving process stopped midway through, sadly. There weren't enough stones. We had been mining them out of the mountain, but that takes some time. I cannot really just cut a mountain entirely and give it to her, we got a limited amount. Digging the floor for stones would make too much of a mess and a disaster as well, so what we are doing is employing people with [Miner] Jobs which I've bestowed to them by spending a few hundred Divine Power points and gave them the task of mining stone and any other precious gemstone from our mountains. I've also created Ice Golems and also left several Undead working as well, so the mining job is swift.
The entire divine realm is overflowing with divine power, so mountains regenerate their resources over time, but cutting one whole would completely make it impossible for it to regrow its resources, so I haven't done anything chaotic like that… yet. I could use direct Divine Power to create stone, but that would be a waste, so I have simply decided to do it in the old way.
"I'll go look for more stone in the mountains for the moment." Said Fuyu.
"Alright, I'll go back to the castle for now then." I said while waving my hand to the people and flying back home.
I saw the big village that had been built surrounding the ice castle and I couldn't help but smile a little bit, it was quite a pretty sight, this is… the beginning of my own place, my own nation, maybe? Away from the problems of the outside world yet still very much connected to it through the large gate where anybody can go out if they want to.
Anyways, I entered my ice castle and swiftly moved towards another large room, where I found nobody… Ah, where is Benladann and everyone else?
Suddenly, I heard a telepathic message sent to me through Benladann's Telepathy Accessory, which I've made and imbued with the Telepathy Skill so she can use it anywhere she is.
"Drake! Come to the backyard, you promised you could continue teaching me how to use dragon powers, the girls are here too!" Said Benladann.
"Come on, you're such a slow lizard sometimes…" Sighed Miranda.
"Don't call me lizard!" I sighed, as I flew outside and gave a twist around the ice castle, finding my family waiting for me outside, in the vast backyard which was slightly paved, there was a large shrine I had left there for the worship of yours truly.
"Here I am, just as called." I said. "I thought we were having lunch at this hour."
"Yeah but I did it now! I also have to cook, you know? You can't just do everything." Sighed Benladann. She pointed out at a picnic that Miranda, Benladra, Belle, Shiro and Kate were enjoying. Oh right, there was also the little Chaos Spirit, which Benladann named Nox.
He looks like a black slime with a floating red eye in the middle of his body, he's harmless to anybody as long as Benladann wants it, and he had grown used to us by this point, and even took a liking of the food.
"Nom… Nom… Ahh, the forbidden disgusting food of this world… Why does it tastes delicious now?!" He cried while wolfing down a large sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes, ham, cheese, mayonnaise, and more.
"Alright, let's practice." I said with a small giggle.
"Alright then!!!" Said Benladann, jumping into action as her legs suddenly were covered on silvery blue scales, her toes grew sharp black nails, and using the overpowering strength she gained in her legs, she jumped straight into the skies.
BOOOOMMM!
She created shockwaves everywhere, which were blocked by a barrier made by Miranda just in time before the shockwaves blew everybody else having a peaceful picnic. I saw Benladann suddenly grow large silvery blue dragon wings out of her back, as she flew through the airs and began to flap them rapidly to maintain herself lifted in midair.
"Come on! Let's practice more!" She said.
"Alright…" I sighed. She had indeed developed into a strong half-dragon at this point.
