Chapter 156 - War prep part 2

I walked through the town, which had become moderately fixed compared to before and found something surprising, "Kevin? I thought you returned home?"

I had found Kevin helping Rigurd with reconstruction, not just making blueprints but doing the hard labor. Rigurd was reluctant at first but found his assistance helpful and his personality very calming.

"This place needed help, I was free and happy to help. Scold me later but I got some work to do." Kevin said firmly and with grace.

But instead of being angry, I grew suspicious, "If you are here then that must mean that Yuura…"

"Yuura is currently doing last minute training with Benimaru and Hakurou, she should be that way." Kevin said while pointing in a direction.

I navigated the space that he pointed in and found the training grounds, I found the training grounds to what I can assume is training… but it just looks like Hakurou and Yuura bullying the Tempest forces.

I teleported over and wondered what their methodology was here. As Yuura was training, she felt a familiar shiver go down her spine and she looked away for a second to my figure teleporting in.

Seeing the opportunity that Yuura was distracted, someone took advantage of that for a sneak attack, " Goblins riders! ATTACK!" Gobta, Rigur and the rest of the goblin riders jumped at Yuura's backside.

Sensing the attack, Yuura spun her wooden staff in a perfect arc that both defended against the goblins and exerted enough force to knock all of them down violently. All without breaking her line of sight of me.

"Hello Master, did you come here to see how training is going?" Yuura asked me with her usually cheerful voice. Hakurou was confused by Yuura's distraction when he heard my voice, Hakurou was very scared of my ability to completely vanish from someone's senses and that fear kept increasing every time I appeared out of nowhere.

"No I'm just surprised you would have such an altruistic side to you. I thought you just go back to Eden and enjoy some time with your kin." I said confused to Yuura which did not make her happy.

"Do I look like some cold blooded demon which just cares about myself and disregards every life around me?!" Yuura's adorable face pouted which was just straight up disarming and adorable but I remained firm and kept myself in control.

"Well, the evidence stands for itself. Ok I don't have any proof on me at the moment but you like to hang around Eden alot of the time without caring about others." I said as I unconsciously moved my hands to her cheeks and began kneeding them.

" Master, stoooooop!" Yuura tried so desperately to get me to stop but her adorable, desperate outrage just made me want to caress her cheeks more.

Hakurou just looked at us two with a serene expression, " Hah, youth." He seemed to understand why I was doing what I was doing.

Yuura acted like a proper commander and teacher when she was around anyone in Tempest. That personality immediately changed in correspondence to Kevin or Lord Simon.

When she was around Kevin she acted friendly, almost seductive. When she was around Lord Simon, she acted like a spoiled child who just wanted to be praised for her actions.

Honestly it made Hakurou change his views on the relationship between master and surbordinate, 'Should a relationship between ruler and surbordinate be so close with each other? Is that more effective?'

"ATTACK!!!" The remaining goblin riders, Youm and Grucias all attacked Yuura and me by association due to our close proximity.

"Don't interrupt tHis MOMENT!!!" Yuura immediately went on the offensive when she realized they were about to ruin something she lived for.

She activated Eligor and immediately seized their minds in an instant, making them slaves to her will and authority. Me and Hakurou looked at her in horror, "Don't you think using your ultimate skills is kinda overkill?"

Then she looked at me with determination causing me to flinch slightly, she walked over and ducked her head to me, as if to present it to me.

I immediately knew and I began patting her head gently and adamantly. Yuura closed her eyes and began purring like a cat, the sight of her was just utterly adorable that evens an old timer like Hakurou began feeling jealous.

" I'll leave you two to your last minute training." I stopped petting her head which caused her to show visible disappointment but she obediently went back to training.

I was walking through the streets of Tempest, on my way to the blacksmith. I entered the blacksmith and found Kaijin and Kurobe hard at work.

It was clear that they were preparing for the war as Kurobe was mass producing regular equipment for the big forces and Kaijin was making special gear for the stronger forces such as Benimaru or Souei.

"You two seem to be doing quite well at work. Mind if I join you?" I spoke catching the attention of the two. Both Kurobe and Kaijin immediately got up and greeted me respectfully.

I walked past them and extended the buildings space to create another forge although this one was far more technologically advanced and had editing options for enchantments and choice of metal.

I turned towards the two who looked at me flabbergasted by my sudden actions, "You two go on without me, I will just be here making my own stuff."

Despite my statement, the two stopped what they were doing and began watching me forge weapons. They saw as I used magic to melt down divine steel and then shape it into the shape I wanted from sheer force of will alone.

Then I put the weapon in the enchanted and literally just picked out my enchantments and the weapon was finished… in three minutes and two and a half of those was just checking the catalogue of enchantments.

Both Kurobe and Kaijin felt a certain sense of being robbed. I turned to the two of them, "Do you want a little bit of a lesson?"
