Chapter 154 The Taste Of Human Blood !?

"Also don't worry about the base, I'll complete it as per your requirements. It will take around a week to be done."

Hearing this Shin was delighted. He was worried that Mastisk may not start working until he brings those mana stones. Fortunately, that's not the case.

'Also, Mastisk is pretty careless. Currently, humans in this world don't know about mana stones.' Fortunately, Shin had some memory of the future otherwise he might have not even understood what that meant.

Mana stones are formed when a huge amount of mana condenses and solidifies. Dungeons above level 6 contain a lot of pure mana. So the monsters are also powerful. It's a good environment where mana stones can be found.

Mana stones can help increase the mana pool by refining the condensed mana. It can be used for the production of several technical gadgets. For making magic circles and many other things.

It can be said that Mana stones are a very important resource in the future. There's also a way to artificially awaken someone. But it has yet to be known.

In any case with the current strength of humans finding Mana stones is very difficult. Because dungeons of level 6 and above are yet to appear.

Before Shin could speak Mastisk continued.

"If you can't get those mana stones you will work for me your entire life."

Mastisk set this condition proudly because he knew many people out there wanted to work under him. So he considered it as a blessing for Shin.

And in case Shin can somehow bring back mana stones, that means humans are not weak and dwarves can consider making relations with them proactively.

Shin thought about it carefully and replied with an ok.

"Fine, I will bring those mana stones by the time you complete the construction according to plan."

Mastisk face was serious. Originally he wanted to give Shin 6 months. But he had to dig his own grave. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖

'1 week? That's some overconfidence he got there. I also want to see him make a fool of himself.'

Although he thought that, he did have some hope for a miracle.

"Mr. Mastisk, I'll call some people over. They will work as per your instructions. Please guide them."

Although Mastisk wanted to work alone. Shin insisted to let some of the guild members work under him. This way they can experience a lot of things.

Shin called Simon, Alex, and Celeste. Simon and Alex were called for physical labor and Celeste were going to level up working under Mastisk.

Shin relayed everything in detail and they readily agreed.

Once everyone arrived Shin handed his card to Simon and said.

"Use this card to purchase all the materials. There's enough money in there. If you need more give me a call."

"Sure."

Shu Ming and the other girls returned to their accommodation. Until the guild base is built they don't have much to do.

While Alice and Shin returned home. He had to make preparations for the next event.

"Alice, go and pack up your luggage. We are going out on a trip."

As soon as Alice heard it she felt something was wrong with her ears. She pinched it and asked.

"Where are we going?"

"Polaris city. We will stay there for a few days."

"Is this true?" Alice's eyes were wide open. Full of expectations.

"Hehe, it's real." Shin laughed seeing Alice's reaction.

"Hehe~ Darling, I love you~" Alice hugged him very sweetly.

'Hehe, this is our first trip outside the city. It's going to be fun.'

'I can't wait~' She was full of excitement as she started planning how their trip is going to be. Although she very well in her heart that there must be a reason Shin wanted to go there. She had no qualms.

What she wanted was only to be with him.

So as soon as they reached home. Alice relayed the news to her mother (Reina) and went to the room. She had to pack things carefully after all it was their first time going outstation.

Reina followed after her and laughed watching her actions.

"Alice, do you need my help?"

"Mom, help me choose clothes."

"Okay~"

After that for the next few hours, they kept on changing clothes. Until it was time for dinner.

Alfred had already returned home from work and was sitting in the living room with Shin and had a gloomy expression on his face.

"How many hours has it been?" Alfred asked.

"About 6 hours," Shin replied blankly.

Alfred smiled wryly.

"What did you do?"

"I asked her to go out with me tomorrow. A few days trip."

"So that's the reason."

"Should we order takeout?" Shin asked.

"Yes," Alfred replied while sighing.

Too bad, today Alfred was looking forward to having dinner at home. He even rejected going for after-work dinner with colleagues. Only to end up eating takeout.

*Sigh* (x2)

***

A mansion with grey walls on the outside with great artistic work. Deep in the forest when no one normally goes.

A road connecting to the mansion goes outside the forest.

A large mansion covering an area of 500 Square meters.

But inside the mansion, a beautiful woman was sitting taking small sips of the drink she held in her hand as she gazed at the portrait hung on the wall.

The picture portrays a handsome man with pale white skin, and a beautiful woman with a small smile on her face as she held a child close to her bosom affectionately.

"I wonder how many times have I seen this picture. But my heart is only full of rage and regret. No matter how many times I watch this. This deep hatred never fades."

"Is this how I'm going to live, Mom, Dad? Will I continue living being consumed by this hatred?" The girl had a sad smile on her face. After all, she had asked this question thousands of times. But unfortunately, there's no one to answer her.

Soon a white-haired man in a butler uniform arrived and bowed slightly as he conveyed the message.

"My lady, we have found their tracks. They are currently in Polaris City."

As soon as she heard those words. Rage took over her mind and terrifying killing intent emerged from her body.

"It's time."

She saw the crimson-colored liquid inside the cup and finished drinking it in one big gulp. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om

It had the taste of fresh human blood.
