Chapter 37 - The Kingdom Begins
Atlas took in the view around them. Lush green grass, a vibrant blanket of blooming flowers, and even... a river?
A river?!
How was that even possible?
He followed the water’s path with his eyes, tracing it back to its source. Right there, the Aqua Crystal Karian had been planted just a few days ago. It fed the stream that now flowed serenely across the island.
"What do you think, My Lord?" Mira asked.
"Magnificent!" he replied, grinning. "You’ve truly transformed this place beautifully, Mira."
"Yay!" Mira cheered, bouncing with joy.
Atlas quickly averted his gaze.
Shaking himself free from the overload, he moved toward the camp setup, Mira and Edrik falling in beside him. He was eager to begin placing the new structures immediately. With all the materials he’d secured in Veylamar, he was now able to unlock nearly every available upgrade for the island’s initial phase.
"My Lord, put one here... another one over there... and that spot too," Mira suggested helpfully, pointing at the floating holographic map projected in front of them.
Atlas had never imagined his once-barren island could look this alive. If not for Mira’s magic touch, it would’ve still felt like a lifeless plot of land. She’d even thoughtfully mapped out ideal zones for each structure.
