Of course the price of such tools wasn’t that much, even if they had to prepare enough for the two hundred million races coming here.
Comparing it to the big gains they got from me through the last deal, they would come out with lots of profit without doubt.
[Sigh! Ok, let’s do it this way then… We’ll state in the contract that if there isn’t enough high grade woods in quantity that will serve our purpose, you’ll have to pay for the fees of these tools. What do you think?]
[Pretty much meticulous and careful in doing business] I shook my head in helplessness, [Fine! Send the contract]
It was as if the price of these tools would be something big anyway. In the next few minutes, she sent a contract and I read through it.
[Damn girl! One thousand bones for mere wood cutting tools?! What do you take me for? A fool?!!]
[They aren’t low grade tools, greedy humans] she sent before adding, [The tools the races will take are all high grade. Besides there are much big tools there that will clear many trees and cut them into the standard size acknowledge by all the impacts in the universe]
[Fine!] I knew this was a losing case from the start. She made sure to milk me of any bones, but hopefully she will deliver what she promised..
[If I found low grade tools or nothing of what you just mentioned, I’ll look for other impacts to deal with later on]
[Humph! Since when did we cheat on you? Don’t treat us like those low grade impacts]
I signed the contract and waited for her to deliver.
I was hovering over a large stretch of plain field that was filled with towering and thick trees. It stretched for tens of miles around, expanding even more than that according to the map I had.
It was a nice place as a start. Not only was it close to the series of mountains, but it was also so spacious, enough to accommodate the incoming big races.
*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*
*Bang!* *Bang!* *Boom!*
Yet when the portals appeared, the entire scenery changed! Tons of races appeared on one side, while portals that delivered huge sized tools appeared at another.
The tools… They looked like big war machines! They had steel tires, sharp edged horizontally placed cutters, looking like big and mighty swords.
Just looking at these tools and machines made me realise she wasn’t bluffing about the price. It was just appropriate for all these high grade and effective tools.
So… Let’s start then…
“Listen up!” I led my chariot and appeared on top of the heads of those races. Their numbers were getting bigger with each passing second. I looked and saw a myriad of races here, with a good number of giants here.
I had to sort them out, but not for now at least. However even with my chariot, they looked like they weren’t listening to me, or even looking up.
They appeared in such a greenery world, something not anyone living in the hellish times of the apocalypse would see in such a way.
So they were busy looking around and checking this new world they came to.
I looked at them and sighed. “Come out!” I summoned my fallen gods and dragons. “You, circle in the air, and you… Release an attachment there!”
I gave the order for my dragons to fly on top of these race heads. As for my fallen gods, I ordered ten of them to attack a distant area.
*Rumble!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
The attacks came and landed fiercely over that distance, causing enough destruction to silence everyone here.
“Roar!”
And in the next moment, my dragons roared and flew on top of these race heads. If they wouldn’t listen to words, then they would listen to my fist.
“Listen up!” this time they were attracted to my chariot and forgot about the world around them. Or else, what just landed at the distance would land at them and claim their lives.
“I’m Hye, your new lord,” I was signing the contracts delivered with their arrival, “from this moment on, you will all listen to my orders!”
*Whisper!*
When a group of thousands whisper, the sound would become a little loud. But when millions, tens of millions, whisper, then their voices would turn into a chorus of noises.
“I know you all came from different places and worlds, and were fighting desperately in the apocalypse. But hey, this is over now! Since this day onward, you will start living here, in such peaceful and calm world, away from the apocalypse and its terror.”
*Whisper!*
Of course few shouted to say something, but in the middle of such chaos, I couldn’t hear anything. And I didn’t want to.
In my eyes, they were just useless races who came here just to work and serve.
“See these tools out there? Go and get familiar with it. From this moment, you will work on cutting the trees around. Clear enough space for all of you to live in happiness and peace. Ah, I forgot to tell, I’m a human, and my race will come here later on and they will be your new masters.”
*Whisper!*
The shouts came this time louder, but I also couldn’t make any sense from these.
“I’ll handle your contracts for them. So when that time comes, you will listen to whatever they say. And in such a calm world with no danger in, I doubt you will even suffer like before. Now… Go there and start work!”
I turned my chariot and went to the tools and machines location. I stopped my chariot there and waited. Few started to come as they listened to my words.
But the majority didn’t! They just started looking for their own kin, gathered together in big groups, as if they were announcing their defiance.
“Sigh! Why every time I have to kill a few of you to listen?“ After ten minutes, and when I finished signing and finalising their contracts, I looked down at them and shook my head.
