Chapter 10: CHAPTER 10: JOURNEY
2 days later...
We arrived home in the rocky mountain. I was surprised to see the changes in the mansion.
"Welcome back lord Michael!" said Rudolph
"I carved more rooms for the kids. I like that indoor plumbing system you have here. It taken us some time to learn how to work the toilet and the piping system. It's all thanks to the instructional books in the library."😊
"Nice! Oh Rudolph, James got thw clothes for everyone. I also have a lot of furniture and lets just say I have a lot."😋
"Damn! I have to hang out wuz like you! You gonna runaway again when things turn to shit!" - (Rudolph)
"Fuck you Rudolph! I did not runaway. You went after that baron on your own! I told you to wait so we can get more people. It was the smart thing to do dumbass!" - (James)
While they are arguing, i released the servants, cook and livestock farmer. I then used <EARTH MAGIC> to create a ranch with fences, I also created a chicken coop based on my memories from earth. I then released all the livestock to their proper dens. I also created a storeroom for their feed. Using <EARTH MAGIC> again, i made a house for the servants.
I then took out beds, wardrobe, tables and chairs on the front yard and ordered them to put one on each rooms for everybody. I then went to the kitchen and took out the stove, oven and kitchen suplies. I gave the cook free reign on whatever he wants to cook. I then went to the storeroom and emptied all the food from my inventory to the storeroom. I then went to the weaponry and expand it due to the amount of weapons and armor i got from the castle. Afterwards I decided to keep the treasures i got from the castle in my inventory.
I went to the library and made more book shelf to fit the enormous amount of books i got from the royal library.
By the time i was finished it was dinner time already. During dinner time I made an announcement.
"I have made a decision to go on a journey! While I'm away, I'm leaving Peggy and Kelly Bundy in charge. The lieutenants are James Bond and Rudolph Rain. Everyone can live freely here including the servants, all I ask is you all have to better yourselves to keep our coven strong. I have all study materials in the library. Oh! I also assign Abigail Davis and Lucy Morning to be in charge of Alchemy. The Alchemy lab is in the basement. I want the 2 of you to research and develope new alchemy formulas. If you need more information, sneak yourself in the forest elf domain in the east."
"If it is by your will lord Michael!" everyone responded. And started to eat dinner.
"So where are you heading?" asked Kelly
"I am thinking of going to the demon continent. They have immortal cultivators. I want to learn it. So..umm..I will be gone for awhile. We all have immortality. You and Peggy can take turns managing the coven. You can even assign someone if needed. Go explore the world if you want. The servants have limited lifetime. Once they grow old, let them free to retire using the curse cure potion. You have <SHADOW SLAVE> skill, just kill a criminal and use the skill. It requires mana, so make sure you keep mana elixers with you.
A week later I set out on my journey. The demon continent is 15 days journey non-stop flight. I will be using alot of mana elixers on the way.
I waved goodbye to everyone and flew away. I used <WIND BARRIER> and <FLY> at the same time thanks to the <MULTI-CASTING> skill.
I flew 5x the speed of sound. Multiple sonic booms sounded out as i broke the sound barrier.
15 days later...
Flying non-stop is a little tiring. I was nearing the continent when suddenly my magic stopped and I went nose dive 700 mph into the ocean.
(SPLAT!)
My body splattered on the ocean. My regeneration was slower because magic was unusable.
"System! What the hell happened? That shit hurt big time! My balls is still stingy dammit!"
[THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ANTI-MAGIC BARRIER ALL OVER THE CONTINENT. YOU CAN ONLY USE SKILLS WITHOUT MAGIC. THERE IS A LARGE AMOUNT OF NATURAL QI IN THE AIR, SO QI TECHNIQUES ARE USABLE]
"So I have no choice but to learn qi now. Oh~ well...<BLOOD WINGS>!!!"
I flapped my wings and started to fly in the direction of the nearest land.
I landed on the nearest land and saw a fishing village nearby. I decided to head there to get information on the way of life here.
I went towards the gate guard to see how much the fee to enter. The guard looked confuse looking at me.
"Hi, I want to enter the village! How much is your fee?" I asked
The guard tilted his head and answered back.
"Ching ye~n Wo shing Chow mein!" - (guard)
I slapped my forehead for being so stupid. I forgot I am in a foreign land. Foreign land means foreign language and writing.
I just waved both my hand and said "Never mind jackasses!" then smilled and waved goodbye.
I decided to just go to the forest and hunt bandits and kill them to use <BLOOD STEAL> to learn things.
I started to explore the jungle while updating my map. I also used <APPRAISAL> for useful herbs or rare plants to use for alchemy. I also decided to build a house. I used <STEEL CLAWS> to clear the trees. I carried the logs using <BLOOD CHAINS> to a pile. I use qi instead of mana to perform <HADOU KEN> and let out and energy ball to clear the huge boulders. I took out my blacksmith tools from my inventory. I also took out carpentry tools. I can't use <BLOOD CLONE> since half the skill is mana dependent. My qi pool is still small.
I spent the whole day building the foundation of the house, complete with indoor plumbing. I didn't need to sleep since i don't need to replenish mana anymore. So i worked through the night. Using my <BLACKSMITH> skills, i made a device to make bricks. I then shoveled some red clay mixed with sand. The whole night, I made enough bricks to build 2 houses. I then traveled to a nearby boulders and used <HADOU KEN> to break it into crumbs.
I then mix clay, sand and rocks to make cement. I use seawater for the mixture. I know this will weaken the cement but the bricks will take care of that. I heated the bricks using a ghetto oven by digging a pool size hole and lay the bricks on the walls then put a huge bonfire in the middle. While waiting for the bricks to dry up, decided to build a moat around the perimeter. I used <BLOOD CHAINS> continuously like an automatic shovel. Then used it again to layer the moat with small boulders.
It was morning when i finished the moat. I used <BLOOD WINGS> to head back to the ocean and decided to get a huge amount of sea water to put into the moat and other stuff.
I returned and dumped the water to the moat. My next project is the perimeter walls, since magic don't work for a wind barrier.
I took a break from house building to hunt. I came across a 6 foot black tiger with white stripes and deer horns. I used the bow and arrow skills to kill it but it was stubborn so i used the axe attack style to decapitate the tiger. I used <BLOOD STEAL> and<APPRAISAL> on the tiger.
(DING!)
[LEARNED <TRACKING> , NEW BLOODLINE UPDATED - ABYSS TIGER (1/10)]
It no longer surprises me. I took out the beast core and I can feel the tiger's qi in the core. It's different from the beast core back in the kingdom. This core is alive.
I got intrigued, so I started to hunt some more. I hunted for a week straight day and night that i forgot about the house.
I hunted abyss tigers with so much gusto that I think I made it extinct. The bloodline went to (10/10). I also got 10 feet King kong gorillas, 7 feet demon eagles and 25 feet anaconda snake.
I leveled up to 30 and learned <STEEL WINGS>, <HYPNOTIC EYES> and <PRESSURE GRIP>.
I still haven't found any bandits. I started to think that this might be a law abiding people continent. So i decided to go back and build the house.
1 month later...
"Haaa~...I finally finished the house. I need to do something about these flies. I think they got stronger after drnking my blood."
I use alchemy on the water of the moat to create fly killer fumes. I also created fly repellants.
"Now that it's finish, I need information gathering."
He decided to visit the village again. The goal is the cemetery and find a fresh grave. He used <STEALTH> in which he turns invisible for a short amount of time, and <BLOOD WINGS> to fly straight to the cemetery. He then use <BLOOD CHAINS> to dig up the corps and <BLOOD STEAL> in quick succession and reburied the dried corps and fly back out. He got home before <STEALTH> looses it's effect. He then looked through the memories of the corps. He learned the language, writing and culture of the people. Their currency are called demon coins and demon crystals. So the money he got is useless. He also need to find clothes because the clothes he was wearing are like clown clothes.
"Now I know why the guard look at me funny. These are clown clothes or clothes for weirdos" he said "Looks like i need to sell beast cores and breast hides in the guild. I can also sell some weapons and armors."
He also learned new cultivation methods. Thise are different from Qi cultivating. They are demon spirit cultivators. The immortal cultivators are in a higher realm in a different dimension.
"I guess I'll hold on the qi training and focus on spirit cultivation"
