Chapter 549 Melodica



It took just a few moments, but soon, the core guardian started to change with the same white light that monsters gave off when they evolved. When that light disappeared, this core guardian’s body had changed a bit. It had two small hearts on its cheeks and wore a puffy, fluffy pink outfit. Its hair was dark green and tied into ponytails in a similar way as Bree wore her hair. It even had a similar body-language to the fey-kin as far as Eisen could tell.

"Ooh! Pretty!" Bree exclaimed loudly as she started looking the core guardian up and down, "I can only return that, Master!" It replied with a melodic voice, and Bree just smiled happily back at it.

"Alright, Bree, give it a name and explain your plan for the town to it, and then let’s leave." Eisen suggested, and the Fey-Kin Supporter slowly turned around and nodded her head, "Okey-dokey~! Hmm, then what about... Melodica? That seems like a cute name!" Bree exclaimed, and the, seemingly female, Core Guardian quickly nodded her head immediately, "Yes please! I really like that!" She replied, officially making her name ’Melodica’ now. It seemed like Bree’s opinion of her voice was the same as Eisen’s, and that’s how she came up with that name.

After that, Bree actually became a little more serious. She had been able to analyze numerous different villages over the past while, after all, and even if she wanted to change her occupation sometime in the future, the ’Analyst’ portion of her was still a regular part of her at least for now.

She made her suggestions on what sorts of facilities were needed, but the Town Core Guardian shouldn’t just make the town too large right off the bat. After all, there weren’t any townsfolk here yet, so having a giant, empty town would just be creepy. And it couldn’t be seen like those abandoned and ruined towns on other islands, since every part of this town would always be perfectly intact due to Melodica’s work.

"Ah! And instead of a Colosseum, turn this place into a really, really pretty wedding chapel!" Bree exclaimed toward the end after the rest of her explanations, and Brody slightly laugehd after hearing that, "Wedding chapel? Really? Why that?" The Demon-Orc halfling asked, and Bree just turned to him with a small smile on her face before legitimately explaining despite Brody just asking somewhat mockingly.

"Well, Reah is the Goddess of Love, and she also oversees things like weddings! So I thought why not turn this place into a location you want to go to in order to marry the one you love? There aren’t any super special materials or other reasons to come here right now~." Bree explained gleefully, and with a slight laugh, Evalia nodded her head.

"I think that sounds really nice, Bree." She said, while just so slightly side-eyeing Brody for how rude he was, although she soon put all her concentration onto something completely different.

"Oh, yeah! Do you and Stahl want to marry here?" Bree asked, and Evalia’s concentration was instantly catapulted completely onto the Fey-Kin, "M-Marriage? We literally have only been going out for a couple weeks, wh-what do you mean?" She asked, and Bree looked at her with a bright smile, "What does it matter if you’re in love? At the very least, I think this would be a super nice place for Dien and I to marry!"

With those words, Bree looked over at the Frost Magician who just lightly smiled at her and nodded his head. He was a kind of awkward and shy person sometimes, so he couldn’t directly just speak about this kind of thing in front of all these people.

"Well then, just let us know when the time for that comes." Eisen told them with a smile, "But for now, I think we should head back to the central islands and finally turn these islands into a country." He suggested as he and the others started stepping toward the Colosseum’s exit, already able to see some parts of the area around this place being transformed through Melodica’s direct influence on the terrain and few leftover buildings.

Askr lifted everyone beside Eisen up to the Dungeon gate, before the old man activated his transformations and started flying up a bit. This island was pretty big, but it wasn’t huge. They would be able to reach the other side within not even half an hour as long as Askr ran properly.

Eisen himself didn’t need to worry, he could fly, and so did his spirit, after all. The only thing Eisen was a bit worried for with that were the five tiny mana-dragons, so the old man simply left them with Xenia who happily agreed to take care of these guys. Although, maybe Eisen should have been more worried about exactly that... Hopefully they would stay intact until Eisen came back.

The old man tried to fly at the same pace that Askr was running at while scouting out any potential annoyance or danger, but there wasn’t really anything that could go up against Askr’s incredible pace and weight. He actually crushed a couple smaller monsters under his feet while running, and the elemental spirit swiftly volunteered to at least go get the mana crystals from them.

Either way, soon, they reached the place they left the ship again, and Eisen quickly helped Askr sit back down on it without any disturbances, before Jyuuk quickly came back out of the dungeon and summoned his Sailor Skeletons again to make them properly drive the ship back to the central islands.

And as the ship was heading off to that destination, Eisen made his way back into the dungeon while checking the progress of his Material Growth Skill. Right now, it was at level 98, and would soon level up to 99. Then it would only take a little while until Eisen would rank the skill up.

With a satisfied smile, Eisen waved the information windows away and then walked up to the others inside of the dungeon.

"Brody." Eisen said, and the Demon-Orc slowly turned his head to look back at the old man, "Yup?"

"Since when do you feel pain again?"

"..." Brody slowly turned away again as he leaned back on the chair he was sitting on. He groaned deeply while trying to figure out how to best talk about this, because it seemed like it would become a rather troublesome conversation, "A couple days, I guess. I can nearly read my red notification. Pain started coming back to me when I was able to read the last two words of it. ’Orc Chieftain’. It might be something similar where I have to go an’ meet’im or something. I don’t know yet though."

"Why didn’t you tell us about it?" Xenia asked with a deep frown as she looked at the Demon Orc, "Hah, right. Listen, you’ve all already been pretty overprotective of Eisen ever since he got his pain back, and he spends most of his time in his workshop. I’m out there getting into fights all the time. If you’re worried about him, you’ll be worried about me, and that’s really damn annoying." Brody pointed out, and everyone slowly looked at each other.

"...fair enough. I guess I get it." Jyuuk replied when nobody else did, "My senses are also starting to be a bit more intense than they used to be, but I still don’t feel pain. I thought about things like that similarly, because I don’t want any of you to worry about something like that. I mean, everyone else here feels pain beside us and the artificials, so why worry about us and not them? Right?"

"Exactly what I thought." Brody replied, and Eisen slightly sighed, "Fine, I get it. I trust you guys, so I won’t be more worried about you even if you start feeling pain. You’ll still be immortal in the end. But the thing that I don’t want to see happen anymore is any of you guys trying to use tactics like that anymore. We just won’t be able to keep acting like we don’t feel pain despite obviously doing so. If you want to make use of that status-effect cancelling ability, I’ll just make you a pill that gets rid of nearly all your health without hurting you, as well as highly-compressed, very potent potions to bring it back up immediately after, alright?" The old man told Brody, and the Demon-Orc slightly grumbled and nodded his head.

"Fine. I’ll stop with that, then." Brody sighed deeply, as if a huge part of his combat arsenal over here was just taken from him, while Eisen sat down with his arms crossed.

"Anyway, that just revealed something else to us. Like Brody said, his red notification might also be an instruction to go and meet someone. If that’s the case, then we shouldn’t push aside the possibility of the same being written on everybody’s red notifications. Maybe we’ll need to pick something important up from there to help us recover our memories. If that’s the case, we shouldn’t try to go to every place all at once, but split up instead and have everyone go where they’re supposed to go with their own parties." Eisen suggested. It seemed a bit rough, since those regions might be pretty hard to get through with few people like that, but Jyuuk quickly agreed nonetheless.

"I think so too. We should focus on getting things like that done as quickly as possible. And in the end, we can convey any information to each other perfectly anyway."

"Right, we do have the chat system..." Evalia muttered quietly, and Xenia slowly turned her head toward her with her brows raised, "And we’re all staying in the same house over there right now."

"Oh..." Evalia muttered a bit embarrassedly, "Right, sorry, I completely didn’t think of that..."

"Anyway." Jyuuk said, "We should all try to get to those places as quickly as we possibly can. Like Eisen said, it might help us recover our memories."
