Chapter 83: One Year
After the contract was completed, Leon released the Efreeti.
Seeing the Efreeti follow Leon out of the Dome Castle, the Salamanders were stunned, filled with worry even after Leon told them the Efreeti was now his servant.
Leon was still considerate, having gotten the Efreeti, he did not forget the Salamanders, and specifically instructed the Efreeti not to seek revenge on the Salamanders, otherwise, it would be a slap in his face, and any consequences would be on the Efreeti itself.
Tassera left, leaving Leon alone.
Leon had few relatives and no slaves plundered from anywhere, he did not need overseers, nor enforcers for the time being, his first task for the Efreeti was to transform the environment of Steam Lake, until every pond and lake of Steam Lake dried up, the boiling water that was just above the shin of an average person turned into molten lava, and Steam Lake became Molten Lava Lake.
"Now it’s up to you. If you do well, I might be able to cut down your service time," Leon was used to making enticing offers.
The Efreeti immediately began working.
Use without doubt, don’t use if in doubt...mainly because of the contract, Leon allowed the Efreeti free rein, not interfering, just observing.
The first step Leon observed the Efreeti taking in transforming Steam Lake was opening the teleportation gate to the Fire Element Plane, then occasionally Fire Elements would come through the teleportation gate to Steam Lake.
Probably because there were still many lakes in Steam Lake, though they were boiling water lakes, these Fire Elements seemed not quite happy, as observed from their actions, but the Efreeti would help them like it.
"Is there a volcano underneath Steam Lake?" Leon curiously asked, "Just activating that volcano would turn Steam Lake into Molten Lava Lake."
