Chapter 488: World Builder In Effect

Once he was satisfied with the location, he turned toward the others.

"All right, tell me what you want before I start building."

Freya immediately raised her hand.

"A swimming pool! And I want my room upstairs so I can see the lake."

Caelus glanced toward the enormous lake beside them.

"Freya, there’s already a lake right there. Why do you need a swimming pool?"

"Because I want one!"

"...Fine. Anything else?"

"Not yet!"

Caelus shook his head and added a swimming pool behind the house before turning toward Sylvia.

"What about you?"

Sylvia approached the projection and examined the upper floor.

"Our bedroom should be here. We’ll get a nice view of the lake from this corner."

Caelus moved the bedroom to the location she had selected.

"Good choice. I’ll add a balcony too."

"And a big bathroom. Make sure there’s enough space for a large bathtub."

"How large?"

"Big enough for both of us, obviously."

Caelus smiled and adjusted the bathroom’s size.

"Anything else, dear?"

"Put the training rooms farther away from the bedrooms. I don’t want to hear explosions whenever someone decides to practice."

"Good point. I’ll make a separate training wing."

Caelus added the training rooms behind the garden, connecting them to the main house through a covered walkway.

Considering their current strength, he also made sure the rooms would be reinforced with defensive mechanisms.

Otherwise, someone might accidentally destroy the entire building while training.

"Oh, and make the kitchen large enough for us to cook properly," Sylvia added. "I don’t want to depend on servants every time I feel like making something."

"All right."

Caelus added a spacious kitchen beside the dining room.

Freya, who had been examining the design, suddenly raised her hand again.

"Big Brother, can you put my room near the kitchen?"

Caelus turned toward her.

"Your bedroom?"

"Yes!"

"Didn’t you just ask for an upstairs room overlooking the lake? The kitchen is downstairs."

Freya frowned as she examined the projection.

"Then can you move the kitchen upstairs?"

"Why would I do that?"

"So I don’t have to walk so far whenever I’m hungry."

Caelus rubbed his forehead, wondering how she had already managed to make something as simple as choosing a bedroom so complicated.

She was a damn primordial!

Sylvia laughed beside him.

"Just put her room near the staircase. That should be enough."

"Yeah, let’s do that."

Caelus moved Freya’s bedroom closer to the stairs while keeping the lake view she had requested.

"There. Now you can get to the kitchen without walking across the entire house. Happy?"

Freya examined the design for a moment before nodding.

"Yep!"

"Good."

With that settled, Caelus turned toward Himmel, who had been quietly watching them the entire time.

"What about you? Any preferences?"

"I don’t need to sleep, so you can give them whatever they want."

"You can still have your own room, you know."

"Then anything is fine. I don’t particularly care where it is."

Caelus decided to give Himmel a room overlooking the garden, along with a study beside it.

Since Himmel didn’t object, he left the arrangement as it was.

After making a few more adjustments, Caelus examined the completed design.

The house would have three floors, several bedrooms, a spacious living area, a dining room, and a large kitchen.

There would also be a garden, a swimming pool, and a separate training wing.

He added a few guest rooms as well, since there was no telling who might visit them in the future.

"Well, I think that covers everything. Everyone satisfied?"

Sylvia nodded, while Freya eagerly agreed.

Himmel didn’t have anything to add, so Caelus confirmed the design.

[Design confirmed.]

[Awaiting construction materials.]

By then, Bertram had already returned with several attendants carrying large quantities of materials from the nearby storage building.

Stacks of pale stone, dark timber, and metal beams were brought onto the field, followed by glass panels and various crystals used in construction.

Caelus directed the World Builder toward the materials, allowing the artifact to examine everything.

[Material assessment complete.]

[Construction requirements satisfied.]

[Ready to begin construction.]

"Looks like we have everything."

Bertram nodded excitedly.

"Then go ahead. I’ve been wanting to see what that artifact can do."

Caelus selected the construction option.

[Construction initiated.]

A bright light spread across the ground as the World Builder began working.

Large sections of stone floated into the air before descending toward the selected construction site.

The ground trembled slightly as the artifact prepared the foundations, arranging the stone blocks beneath the surface.

Metal beams followed, connecting to form the structure of the house.

Caelus watched with interest as the materials continued moving without any need for him to control them.

"That’s pretty convenient. I don’t even have to do anything."

"That’s why construction artifacts are so valuable," Bertram explained. "They can save an enormous amount of time, especially when building something this large."

While they were speaking, the walls began rising around the frame.

Pale stone fitted together without leaving any visible gaps, while large windows settled into their designated positions.

The outer structure was completed surprisingly quickly, and the artifact immediately began working on the interior.

Floors, staircases, and individual rooms gradually took shape as the construction progressed.

Even the plumbing and energy systems were being installed automatically.

Freya was especially excited as she watched the upper floor being completed.

"Big Brother, look! That’s my room!"

Caelus followed her finger toward the balcony overlooking the lake.

"Yeah, that’s yours."

"Can I go inside now?"

"Wait until it’s finished. You can explore as much as you want afterward."

"Okay!"

Freya reluctantly stayed beside him while the World Builder continued working.

The main house soon stood three floors high, with broad balconies overlooking the lake.

A covered walkway connected it to the training wing, while steps led down toward the garden.

Behind the house, the swimming pool was gradually filled through newly formed water channels.

Lamps appeared around its edges as the final construction materials settled into place.

Caelus also added several privacy formations and defensive mechanisms supported by the World Builder.

A faint barrier spread over the entire property before gradually disappearing from sight.

Although he didn’t expect it to stop every powerful cultivator in the Primordial World, it would at least provide some protection against unwanted visitors.

[Construction complete.]

As the remaining light faded, a grand house stood where there had previously been nothing but grass.

Caelus examined the finished building with satisfaction.

It looked even better than the projection, especially with the lake stretching out behind it.

Sylvia seemed pleased as well.

"I like it. We should be quite comfortable here."

"Yeah, and there’s plenty of space for everyone."

Before they could say anything else, Freya was already running toward the entrance.

"I’m going to choose my bed!"

Caelus laughed.

"You already chose the whole room! At least let us get inside first!"

However, Freya had already disappeared through the front doors.

Sylvia shook her head in amusement before taking Caelus’s hand.

"Come on, hubby. I want to see our room too."

"All right, let’s go."

Caelus followed her toward the entrance, while Bertram and Himmel entered behind them.

As everyone stepped inside, the lights throughout the house gradually came on, illuminating the spacious entrance hall.

For the time being, Caelus was looking forward to spending a few peaceful days here.

However, far beyond the lake, someone was watching the newly constructed house from place hidden overlooking Bertram’s territory.

It was Aron, the King of the Stellar Devils.

He remained there even after everyone had entered the building, keeping his attention fixed on the house.
