Chapter 255 Building



There was a vast area of uninhabited land in front of Adara and all around her.

Adara reasoned that she should gather her friend and some of the other earth mages in the group behind her to construct a shelter as it didn't appear that any monsters were nearby.

All Elsie and a few other earth mages needed to do was to construct the various structures that would serve as their temporary home by manipulating the earth between them.

Adara thought the idea was a good one, but she decided to get the commander's opinion first. After getting the commander's enthusiastic support, Adara decided to act on her plan right away.

Adara first got Elsie to try creating a slightly hut-like house before she called the others in the crowd who could also manipulate earth like Elsie.

Elsie's expression changed to one of seriousness at the moment she heard this, and she dropped to her knees before circulating her mana.

Despite the fact that all Adara asked of her was to construct a hut, Elsie wanted to give it her all because whatever Adara had in her head seemed important.

Elsie circulated the mana in her body to a certain extent, then slammed both of her hands on the ground as the ground shook a little in front of her, and a certain area began to rise.

Elsie started to manipulate the earth by structuring it to look like a hut in accordance with the image she had in her head after it had risen to a height of two meters from its initially slow but sure ascent.

She ensured that while building the hut, she also strengthened and hardened the earth. Elsie did her best to demonstrate to Adara that she was still useful despite not being instructed to do so.

Adara started acting distant from everyone a few days after Ace and his team left, though no one knew when it began or what caused it.

Nobody was sure if it was because Adara had to mature to assume responsibility, but she began to take charge to the point where even her lax classmate had a piece of her.

For one, Adara's attitude began to indicate that she would treasure something if it was useful and disregard it if it wasn't.

The same applied for the humans around her as well.

The individuals who demonstrated their utility were rewarded, while those who did not were treated normally and given tasks to complete in order to maintain their utility.

Since it was the apocalypse and the old rules of the world did not matter as they did before, Adara's classmates at first began to show little regard for the fact that she was a princess. However, after Adara came into contact with her father's men, things started to change as she grew more powerful.

Aside from her own power, which was also growing, the thousands of men under her caused her classmates to once again fear her, and as the monsters around them grew more powerful quickly, the only place for them to be safe was beside Adara. Nobody wanted to be abandoned and left behind simply because they were useless.

Elsie made sure to give it her all when Adara asked for assistance so that she could demonstrate that she was still useful, as was the majority of Adara's classmates.

Contrary to what they believed, Adara found all of her classmates useful because in addition to their personal power, which was relatively strong, they could also assist her with management. If only Elsie and all of her classmates knew that they were never truly considered in Adara's head, they would all breathe a sigh of relief.

She never intended to abandon them. Some of them, at least.

After a minute, Elsie had finished building a hut as several people's minds, including Adara's, raced with thoughts.

Adara and the commander approached the earth hut in front of them, Elsie trailing behind them as they entered.

A hut is supposed to be small, but due to the thoughts of one particular person, the one they were in at the time was rather large, with an open door to let people in and two windows that were positioned on the walls on either side of the door.

The hut's walls were a little rough, but not so obvious that one could tell from a distance, and the floor was also hard earth rather than the sand that was outside.

Adara poked the hut with just the force that a car traveling at 180 mph would use to strike it as she continued to inspect it, and when she saw that the hut was still standing strong even after this, she nodded her head in satisfaction.

After checking out the state of the hut, Adara came out of the hut with Elsie and the commander.

"How many more times can you do it?" When they were outside, Adara questioned Elsie.

"Like 25 more times", Elsie said as Adara immediately asked another question when she heard this.

"How many times can you make a hut like this if you reduce the size of the hit and the overall thickness of the hut a little?" Adara questioned Elsie as Elsie put her hand on her chin and took a moment to think before responding.

Elsie finally estimated her upper limit, "at most 35," after giving it some thought.

After hearing this, Adara nodded and turned to speak with the commander next to her while Elsie waited. After a short while, Adara turned to Elsie and instructed her to summon every earth mage in the crowd to come meet her. Once this was completed, Adara gave Elsie the directive that they should all construct a hut until they are unable to do so any longer and handed the lead to Elsie to issue orders to the other earth mages.

Adara wanted the foundation of the settlement to start moving while the other people in the crowd got busy themselves as it would be some time before it got really dark.

Adara understood that even if they were able to construct a few more structures for the earth mages to live in, for tonight they would still need to sleep outside due to the relatively small number of earth mages.

Adara thought it was better for everyone to sleep outside and that they wouldn't stop until it was possible for everyone to lay under a cover, even if there were already some hut for a few people to sleep in. This was done to prevent trouble in the crowd caused by a select few people being able to see under a cover while the rest couldn't.

As things got busy around the sea area, it was also busy at the blazes location.
