Will of chaos

After some time I managed to control the situation outside the Dungeon, Nix closes the Dungeon gate and enters using my shadow as a gate to appear in the Cradle of Spirits, she will be busy taking care of the Dungeon modifications for the rest of the day.

I tell everyone to behave while they’re here, meanwhile it looks like Luthien, Catarina, and Roman were surprised by the people of the village, but I can’t blame them.

I was also surprised when I saw so many people coming out of the Dungeon of different races, I think after being away from the Dungeon for so long and seeing other cities it started to sink in how strange it is for so many races to live together like this.

I accompany everyone to the village gates along with Roman and Carolina, Luthien doesn’t like to show himself to the village people, so she disappeared in front of us, it was only after that that Elsaris was able to control her sister.

We all pass through the village gates and through the village to get to the other side where the houses are still being built, but it looks like it’s not long to finish so I decided to do it today.

I tell everyone we’re going to be here for a few months before I leave, I imagine everyone already knows that.

After that we organize where everyone will live, meanwhile, Sophia appears with Jade to gather people from the Dungeon to go hunting for today’s food, and hundreds of people go along.

Caryna and Freya start moving things forward for when the meat arrives, so they start preparing the side dishes, including the French fries I taught them to make.

Luthien laughed at how I was using an alchemy ingredient to make food for thousands of people, she said I was practically burning money but I didn’t care, who can live without a hamburger and fries throwing the first stone.

While everyone was there I threw all the work of keeping everything under control into the hands of Sapphire and Ivan.

So I went with Leonardo to talk about the projects for the city as he looked like a madman writing on his papers as he walked.

I took Leonardo inside the house where we’ve been staying, we go over to the dining room table where I take everything off while Leonardo throws his papers open across the table. .𝘤𝘰𝑚

“Here we’ll be able to talk better, so take a deep breath and say what you have to say calmly so I can understand.” (I)

“…” (Leonardo)

Leonardo puts down his pen and the reading crystal he was using as he draws on the papers on the table, so he takes a few deep breaths before starting to speak in a more normal way.

“Master Zenos, the truth is that the drawing I showed you about the city projects was not everything I had done, I thought you wouldn’t approve of all my ideas, so I didn’t show everything, between these ideas there were some tree contractions like the one we’re in now.” (Leonardo)

“I liked this place a lot, but I don’t know how you can mix this kind of architecture in a city with normal buildings.” (I)

“The city’s design is round without walls, after all, we don’t need walls as we won’t be attacked inside the Dungeon.” (Leonardo)

“I had made drawings about a neighborhood of pensions and restaurants where there would only be these tree constructions, so the streets would be made of reinforced earth like in this village where we are.” (Leonardo)

“We can make this cone-shaped neighborhood of the city center where the master asked that a garden with flowers and trees be built to the edges of the city.” (Leonardo)

“That might work, but if the trees are all the same size and arranged in order like the other buildings in town, it won’t look so pretty.” (I)

“I thought about that too, but the answer to that is simple, we just need to have buildings of different sizes and a bit cluttered, the streets in this part of the city would not be straight, but would form paths as if walking through a forest of truth.” (Leonardo)

“This looks nice in the imagination, but what would it look like in real life?” (I)

“I’ve done a lot of drawings, we’re lucky to have the Nymphs with us, plus we have the Fairies and Spirits to help too.” (Leonardo)

“With that, we might be able to shape the trees as well as the Elves, plus the castle I was planning to make for the master outside the city might have a big blood tree growing inside the castle grounds, it would be magical.” (Leonardo)

“Wait, wait! What castle? Who said I want a castle?” (I)

“The master is the leader of a city of thousands of people, you need a castle, this demonstrates your authority and the respect that everyone has for you.” (Leonardo)

“But I don’t want…” (I)

“I’m sorry master, but I don’t have a choice about the castle, many people from Dungeon are pressuring me to build the castle, the project is already ready.” (Leonardo)

“I’m too happy with my current life to die now, so this castle has to be built.” (Leonardo)

“Who is threatening you? Was it érica? Was it Ivan? Maybe it was Lilith or Hela?” (I)

“All the options and more…” (Leonardo)

“…” (I)

“(Why don’t I have the right to choose whether or not I want a castle?)” (I)

It seems that I don’t have much control over my own city, I wanted to say that there will be no castle, but with these crazy people threatening Leonardo, I’m not sure if I would be able to defend him, due to the bizarre amount of sweat coming out of his body right now he knows it too.

I don’t think his life would be in danger, but I’m not sure what these madmen would do to him.

Sigh

“At least tell me it’s going to be a small castle.” (I)

“…” (Leonardo)

cough cough

“Define small?” (Leonardo)

“…” (I)

Sigh

“I give up, do what you want with the castle, I just don’t want to get into that topic again for the sake of my mental health, now tell me more about the other things.” (I)

“Thank you so much for making things easier for me master, thank you so much…” (Leonardo)

“Alright, just continue with your explanation of the project.” (I)

“Alright, about the library…” (Leonardo)
