Chapter 372: Home Sweet Home (2)
When I stepped out of the long hallway of light, I saw my kingdom... was what I would have said if the world was kind to me. Unfortunately, all I saw was pitch darkness.
“Whoa, what is this? It’s so dark!” I said.
There was nothing but darkness. As I took a cautious step forward, my feet sank into something squishy. The texture of the darkness was almost exactly like a lump of mud.
“It’s because nothing has been created yet,” the Primordial Staff answered from behind. “This place is like bare ground where not even the framework of a house has been built. There’s no roof, let alone built-in furniture. Scream Sky, you earned enough to buy the land from clearing floors, but you haven’t built the house yet.”
“So I’m a landowner but not a homeowner, huh?”
If that was the case, then it meant that buying a plot of land needed grinding from the tenth to the eightieth floors. Supposing that I compared life to this Tower of one hundred floors, then acquiring the land for my home would be equivalent to completing eighty percent of my life’s goals. That was both realistic and kind of unpleasant.
“Where can I find an architect and interior designer to hire?”
“Sorry, but you are the architect and interior designer. You’re no longer a Hunter who just accepts and completes quests. Well, if I had to describe it like a quest, it would be like this.”
The Primordial Staff etched snow-white letters in the air with the tip of her staff.
