Death... and me

Chapter 1590 That will do!

It turns out the kids Logu took care of weren’t the only ones Rean ended up taking with him. There were some other people involved in construction that worked with Logu in the past. Although the majority got other jobs, those that Logu invited were people who decided to follow in her footsteps. By the time Rean finished gathering everyone who signed the contracts, he had over a hundred kids and seven adults.

’Hmm… I better recruit more adults later,’ Rean thought to himself.

With that resolved, Rean decided to ask Logu, “Logu, what do you think the sect in this place should be like?”

Logu narrowed her eyes a moment before changing the topic. “I guess there isn’t much sense in pretending to be a man anymore.” Immediately after, the concealing skill that she used disappeared. She then used her Divine Energy to create a layer that impeded others from seeing through. Eventually, the layer disappeared as she returned to her female appearance.

Rean and Roan still found this kind of thing quite useless. Divine Sense could see through everything, so clothes were quite useless. Well, they guessed people still felt embarrassed nevertheless if they didn’t use it. 

Surprisingly, Logu wasn’t as old as Rean thought she was. ‘No, she’s definitely much older than me. It’s just that her cultivation made her look like she was in her thirties.’ Well, Rean was right. Logu was, in fact, 347 years old. Not everyone could cultivate as crazily fast as the twins, after all. Nevertheless, considering the lifespan of an Elemental Transformation Realm cultivator was around 3000 years on average, she was doing very well.

Logu then looked at Rean, as well as the subordinates who decided to come with her. “Alright, there’s no need to call me Logu anymore either. You guys can call me Eliana once again. Since we’re not staying in Glastocen, it won’t matter anymore.”

With that, Eliana looked back at Rean and asked, “You didn’t lie about the amount of Divine Stones available for the building, right?”

Rean nodded in response. “I didn’t. You can use as much as you want as long as the sect is efficient. Remember, I don’t care about appearances. What matters most is the efficiency of the sect itself.”

Eliana nodded, saying, “Don’t worry, with me and these guys here, it’ll become perfect.”

Eliana then introduced those extra six adults to Rean, with her being the seventh one.

”This is Katia. She’s very good at designing foundations.”

”Ricardo’s good at architecture, just like me.”

”Omacro was the one responsible for sanitization. In any case, don’t look down on his job. Although many think that sewers are nothing to be proud of, a real city can’t live without people like him.”

Rean immediately nodded, saying, “Don’t worry. If there’s one thing I’m absolutely sure about, sanitization is extremely important. I don’t care how much it costs. Make sure the sect’s sanitization is perfect.” Rean came from Earth, after all. He knew how much of a difference it made.

Omacro was surprised to hear Rean say that. Usually, when he worked with Eliana and her projects, those contracting her put little to no thought into his job and wanted to spend as little as possible on it. “T-Thank you, sir. I’ll do my best.”

Eliana’s opinion of Rean improved quite a bit after she heard that. “You aren’t half bad.”

She then continued to introduce the rest.

”This is Luto, Jana, and Asfrika. You could say they don’t have one specific talent. However, you can put them in charge of almost anything, and they will see it through. That in itself is a very good talent already.”

The three nodded at Rean before saying, “Thank you for taking us in.”

Rean smiled in response. “I’m surprised that you guys didn’t mind joining my sect at all, especially since it hasn’t even been built yet.”

Eliana shook her head, though. “You have the wrong idea here. It’s exactly because it still doesn’t exist that they joined me on this crazy idea.”

”How come?” Rean asked back.

Asfrika was the one to answer, telling him, “Hehe! Unlimited resources! How many people can say they have a bottomless account to build a sect? These were the words that captivated us. Besides, none of us have families or anything like that, so we didn’t mind joining either. It’ll also be good for our cultivation.”

Eliana added, “To be honest, I had many, many more people who I worked with back in the past. However, these guys were the only ones I knew that didn’t have anyone to worry about. As for the rest, they all have their families, parents, friends, and their own accomplishments that they wouldn’t want to leave behind in this city.”

Rean nodded after hearing that. “Well, that makes sense. It would be too strange if everyone you knew back then suddenly accepted to give everything up and come with us.”

After finishing introducing everyone, Eliana finally went back to the main topic. “So, there’s one very important thing to ask. Would this sect be able to come out of this Dimensional Realm of yours? Or will it be locked in this place forever?”

Rean was taken aback as he pondered over it. “This…” Even he didn’t consider this point. He thought he would need to rebuild the sect’s building in the future once they decided to establish themselves somewhere. “Well, we’re able to bring everything out. However, is it really a good idea to move an entire building? You have to consider things like the terrain, the structure, the things inside, and so on, no?”

Eliana and her group’s eyes all lit up after hearing that. “Really?! You can really move everything at once out?!” Rean nodded in response and waited for them to continue speaking. “Then you don’t need to worry. We will make a sect that can be positioned in almost any terrain.”

They couldn’t help but laugh after that. “Hahaha! This is going to be so fun!”

Eliana had only one request after that. “We will need some high-level Formation Masters, though. Can you invite some later on?”

Rean shrugged his shoulders as he replied, “I’m a Golden Peak-level Formation Master. Would that be enough?”

Eliana’s group became more shocked when they heard that. However, that only made them happier. “That will do!”
