As you flew back toward the construction area, you were still looking at the harpies on your hud screen."Aisha, get me more data on harpies biology and habitats."
"Right away, master." (Aisha)
Since you plan to keep these harpies, you would want to learn more about them and build a suitable home for them near your tower. And judging by the look of these homeless harpies, they could use a new home. The information about the harpies habitats and biology has popped up on your screen, you then though it without missing any detail.
Harpies can mostly live anywhere as long as there is food available. But they most prefer to live near waterfalls, if it possible that is. As you finish reading the info, you are now planning to build the harpies new home near your tower. First, you would try to create a small river that would link from the main river in the capital. After that, you will need to create a hill and then a waterfall from the small stream that you create. Next, you need to plant a different kind of fruit trees for them to eat, as for the leader harpy (the cute/hot one) you need to feed her yourself, which you 100% happy to do it. And finally, you need to design a birdhouse, it would be like a chicken house but bigger with more s.p.a.ce and more freedom in it. After you finish reading the information about harpy, you look at the progression of the Academy.
"20% to completion. Aisha is there any particular structure that I need to do manually?"
"There is currently none that required your attention, Master." (Aisha)
"Great! Then I"ll go practice some magic at the tower." You said in an enthusiastic tone.
"I"ll prepare for the testing room and data on magic from the library books." (Aisha)
"Thanks, Aisha." You then increase your speed and head toward the Tower.
As you zip through a clear blue sky, you remember something.
"Aisha, how are the beastkin doing?"
"They currently heading toward the front line of the Eilven kingdom, which should take about 57 days and another group is heading toward the east." (Aisha)
"What their condition?" you open the map on your hud screen to search for the surviving beastkins.
"They appeared to be exhaust and low in morale. If this continues, I"m afraid the 80% of beastkin will perish." (As.h.i.+a)
"mm, you"re right, we need to do something about this." On the live map, you saw roughly about 2000 beastkin slowly march toward the northwest. They are tired and hungry. They all seem to be women appearances, just like the elves. There are adult, children and elderly, but the older women of the beastkin appear to have a wrinkle like the human. Unlike the elves, the elderly elf keeps their youth appearances, but their tattoos appear on their body as they are getting older. Mostly 2000 years and above.
"Aisha sends the stealth drone to drop food supply to the beastkin and protect them from the shadow sp.a.w.ns without being seen."
"Right away master." (Aisha) As Aisha sending a supply drone to the beastkin, a notification appears on your hud screen. Some is calling you on your HB. And it turns out Anna is calling you.
"Master, Annsama is calling you." (Aisha)
"Put her on." A square pops up on your hud screen, and a live image of Anna appears.
"Good Afternoon, sensei!" (Anna) she said in a cheerful voice.
"h.e.l.lo there, Anna, what"s up?" you smile back at her.
"It is ok for us to go to visit sensei at the Tower? I heard from Aishsan that the Tower is complete and you"re free right now." (Anna) she shyly asks you while swirling her index fingers.
"Yes, of course, you can. just give me a few minutes, I"ll be at the tower very soon."
"Are you sure? I don"t want to disturb when sensei is working." (Anna) she lows her head while softly b.u.mbling.
"It fine. I free right now, so I"m happy to show you around the Tower." You gave her a bright smile. When Anna saw you smile at her, she felt relief.
"Then, I look forward to it! See you soon, Sensei!" (Anna) she smiles happily at you.
"Mm! see you soon!" Anna image disappears on your hud screen.
"Aisha, cancel the magic testing and prepare for guest at the Tower, and lower the security to level 1." You remember that after the Tower finished, you were testing the security system and its level was raised to the max. You completely forgot to low it down this morning.
"Umm, master I think we should upgrade the security system." (Aisha) she said in a nervous tone.
"Why, is there a bug in a system?" you stun and confuse because you build the whole thing and run a calculation ten times.
"Well...last night when you were asleep, someone manages to break through the security system with triggering the alarm." (Aisha)
"WHAT!! WHO!? Don"t tell those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds??!! Aisha, why didn"t you sound the alarm!?" you began to felt uneasy. Suppose those church peoples did break in Tower. Then you need to solve this matter fast.
"No, no, no, Master, it was not the humans of the west. It...…it….. you need to see it for yourself." (Aisha) She said there a hit of fear in her voice.
You then manage to calm down. "Ok, show me the footage."
"Master, please prepare your heart because it might cause trauma." (Aisha) the security video pops up on your hud screen and starts to play.
"Ha! I"m Tony Stank! I fear nothing!" as you start bragging about yourself, the video show was in Aisha"s core room. There was a figure slowly walking toward Aisha"s core in the middle of the room. You recognise the person who walks around Aisha"s core. That person was no other than the demonic maid herself, the head maid of the Eilven kingdom, Linda.
"......…I"m not even surprised anymore." You cannot help feel helpless went it come to Linda, she is too mysterious.
On the video, Linda finally stops in front of Aisha"s core and seem to be inspecting Aisha"s heart core. The footage then changes to the view of the hidden camera where you can closer see Linda"s back. But the video zoom on her, there seems to be slight static on the video and that moment Linda disappear. The camera then moves slowly to the left and there no one, then the camera to the right, there no one either. But as the camera slowly turns back to the right.
"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!" you were so shocked that you lost control of your flight. You are now heading down toward the ground.
"Master! Activated emergency control!" (Aisha) She took control of your suit. Suddenly your body moved on its own, and your body was in landing position; then you safely land on the ground just in time. You quickly eject of your armour suit and fall to the ground on four.
You were sweating, and your heart was beating very fast. "Ha ha ha, that woman is going to be the death of me." You mutter with breathing heavily. Then you sit on the ground the and facepalm and taking a deep breath. "That was mess up." You recall what happened a minute ago. As the camera turns toward the right, Linda"s face appears out of nowhere right in front of the camera and show her creepy smile.
Linda was a beautiful elf, there no way she could scare anyone, but what on the clip was straight out creepy as f.u.c.k. Her eyes were lifeless, and that smile on her face. Remembering it is giving you a s.h.i.+ver, it was like one of those jumps scared in the horror movies, and it was a very good jump scared.
You finally calm down from that sudden event. You stood up and took a deep breath and turned toward the suit. "Let go home." You suit up and take off.
As you flying toward your home, there seems to be an awkward silence between you and Aisha.
"........Umm, should I save the cli-?" (Aisha) she nervously asked.
"NO!!!"
**************************
4 PM
The Tower entrance.
The door opens automatically, and four elves walk in. At first, they were shocked that the door opens on its own, but as they came inside, they were stunned by what they saw. They never this kind of architect before, it was smooth, bright and ma.s.sive. It was like a new world to them.
One of the doors open and everybody turn toward the door and saw you exit.
"Welcome to the Tower everyone; I hope you"re not tired from the long walk from the gate." You smile at the four that enter your tower, which is Lenna, Irin, Anna, Aven and cute little Esta.
"Ah, Ooooonnnniii-chhhhannnn!!" (Esta) She jumps down from Lenna"s arms and adorably runs toward you.
You crouch down and open your arm and receive her. Esta hugs you warmly while happily giggle.
"Hey there, Estchan, how are you? Did take long for you to get here?" you pick her up and hold her in your arm. She was Surprisingly light.
"No, there a magic cart carry us here it was very fast, so we came here very quick." (Esta) she gave you a surprising gesture by raising both her arm.
"I see, I see." Then you notice she was holding the bunny doll. "How is Mr Bunny doing? Do you like it?"
"Mmm! I love him! Mr Bunny is my best friend! And we"re always together!" (Esta) she then snuggles Mr Bunny.
Seeing how adorable she is, you could not help but smile. Her adorableness is healing your recent scar in your heart.
"Sigh, it true. Ever since she got the doll, she never let it go." (Lenna) she walks toward you and Esta; then she gently pads her daughter"s head.
"Sensei, good evening!" (Anna) she bows to you.
"Yo! Aniki!" (Aven) she raises her hand to greet you.
"...….Evening...….Tony." (Irin) she nods.
"Evening to you all." You reply with a smile. Then you turn toward Lenna, "Also, Lennsan, why are you here?"
"What? Today is my day off. You got a problem for me being here?" (Lenna) She gare at you. Then you notice that she was not wearing her usual battle gears. She wore a back top which exposes her belly and leather skirt and armour boots.
"Oh no, no, I thought you were with Helen-san for the fortress repair, the one where we meet?"
"hmph! Unlike that idiot, I always finish my work on time!" (Lenna) she said proudly.
Meanwhile at Fortress of Falenas.
"AHCOOOO!! Sniff* I feel like someone bad mouthing me." (Helen) She rubs her nose. Then she looks at the mountain of papers and doc.u.ments on her desk. "AAAAAAAAA!! I can"t take any more! I want a break!" (Helen)
"You already had your break about 5min ago your majesty, so please continue." (Maid) she said without any emotion.
"But it impossible to finish all these by myself!" (Helen)
"Unfortunately there nothing I can do. I was Instruct to watch your majesty until the a.s.signment is complete. And If there any of escape attempt, I shall report to Lindsama." (Maid)
"Uuuuggggggg, it so unfairrrrrr! Lenna! How are you leave me behind and having fun with Tony-kun! Just you wait! I"m going to have my revenge!" (Helen)
"Your majesty, please continue, if not I"m afraid I have to contact Lindsama." (Maid)
"TOOOOONNNNYYYYY-KUUUNNNNNN SAVE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" (Helen) Her cry was echo throughout the fortress.
Back at the Tower.
You are giving the elves a tour to the base of the Tower, which is the four build at the base of the tower. Even thou most rooms were empty; they still enjoy it, especially the kids. While the adult was still amazed that, all this was created in one day. But all this was above gourd, what happens if you told them about the underground facility, which is about 800 meters deep. They might really think that you are a freak.
"Tony, why are all four building is empty?" (Lenna) she while looking around the room.
"Well, these four building is for the public. One of the building I plan to make a lecture hall, but that has been change since we are building an Academy. So I"m not sure what to with them anymore." You shrug.
"Hm? Sensei, what Academy?" (Anna) turn around toward you with a confused look on her face.
"Oh, Didn"t Irin-san told you?" you were surprised as well then you turn toward Aven, and it seems she was clueless as well.
So you explain to both Anna and Aven. After you finish, tell Aven"s eyes was fills with excitement. But Anna is trembling some reason.
"So this Academy where all elves like us will attend to learn stuff, and after we reach 150 years old we get to choose our choice of career? (Aven)
"Yes, but when you attend the academy, you will be a student at the Academy, and you are not allowed to use your status as royalty. You will just a normal elf student like all the student that attends the academy.
"It fine; finally, I can make friend with the same age as me, will out worry about my status." (Aven) She cutch her fist with excitement. You guess that as the prince, she didn"t have any normal friends, and this her opportunity to make friends.
"Mother! Why didn"t you tell me about this!? (Anna) she quickly and angrily turns toward Irin.
Irin looks at Anna with the same emotionless face. "...…..You....didn"t ask." (Irin) she replies.
"What!? You could at least told me about it! Since Aven and I are Attending it! It always likes this; you never told us anything important about this kingdom! I"m not a child anymore, mother! I want to help out as well since this is my home! " (Anna)
"...….you"re....still too young...to understand...…..Anna." (Irin)
"MOTHER!!" (Anna) She looks like she about to explode. You then quickly try to calm things down.
"Now, now, in the end, both of you will be attending the Academy anyway so, you don"t need to get angry about it." You understand Anna viewpoint as well as Irin"s. Anna is a genius child who has a mature mind of an adult, but she always is seen as a child. And she wants to prove herself that she just a child.
While Irin understands her daughter"s gift, very well, but in the end, no matter how smart she is, Anna is still a child, and Irin wants her to enjoy the life of being a child where she was running around and having fun with other kids. Otherwise, when she grows up, she will have a hard time making friends and become a loner for a long time.
"But, but." (Anna) she turns to you while was struggling to find a word.
You then pat her head gently and look in her eyes. "Don"t worry, I"m one of the teachers of the Academy, besides this a good chance to make new friends who have the same interest you right?"
Anna then glances that her muscle head brother who doesn"t care about books and always train. It would be nice to have someone with the same interest as a friend. So she won"t be lonely anymore.
"Ok, I understand." She turns toward Irin. "I"m sorry for shouting early." (Anna) she bows toward Irin.
Irin crouches down and hugs her daughter. "Silly child, you"re do nothing wrong. It was my fault; I should have been more open to you." (Irin) she speaks normally.
"mother…" (Anna) she hugs Irin back.
Seeing warm seen you can"t but smile at them both. Then you notice that Aven and Esta were still confused to a current event. Suddenly there was a loud growling noise came Esta. You were guessing she hungry and might be a good time for dinner.
"Now then, you all must be hungry by now, come, let me take you to my room." You then walk toward the elevator.
When Aven and Esta heard the word dinner, they immediately forget the drama and cheerfully follow you toward the elevator. See how cheerfully the kids, Irin, Lenna and Anna giggle and you toward the elevator.
