Building With One's Hands Only

Early in the morning, outside of Ciemnosc's bedroom, just as he was walking towards the stairs.

Creak~.

Entering into Missa's bedroom, Ciemnosc looked at her bed empty and at her desk, which had an orange haired beauty dozing off on top of it. It seemed that even being a cultivator in the Conflagrate realm, reading through his most basic notes on Spirit Sense and its 'beyond belief' uses are too much for such cultivators. The low amount of 'activity', which wasn't the same as brain activity, in her head had been eaten up by simply reading through such.

Ciemnosc wondered if he could build a cult like this, never better said, but he simply walked over to her and slowly picked her up. First by accommodating her hair around the back of her shoulders and nape, then grabbing her under her armpits to finally carry her over to her own bed. Letting the sleeping beauty remain sleeping, lying on her own bed so comfortably, rustling noises went out as Ciemnosc took her pants off.

"AAhh~!" A great, little moan came from her lips as Ciemnosc pinched the unthinkable bean of the flower. She opened her eyes and looked at an unfazed Ciemnosc that wasn't even kneeling on her mattress, who spoke before she could even open her mouth. "Now we're even."

Saying that, and only now realizing her whole body was naked and was eye raped by his cruel self, such a thing that she could not even dream of doing since she saw him that one time a couple days ago, definitely not - she sheepishly covered her body with her pale rosy blankets as Ciemnosc’s back made its way out of her naked eye. But she remained in that pose on her bed, under her blankets, for a good, while all until a few minutes later after hearing his commanding vehicle’s motor already in the distance.

“Uuugh~, how am I supposed to sleep now, you dummy?” Thinking so, the young woman stood up, not even caring a single damn shit about her nudity, and walked out of her personal bedroom, facing the left side of the basement floor before entering another personal bedroom. From there, the handsome fella and the brown haired beauty, Leen, exclaimed in surprise. “Missa?!” - “Ah, Missa, it was my turn this week~.”

. . .

Workshop, still very early in the morning.

“Yaaaawn~,” Tini had her bunny slippers covering her dainty little feet. While her face was all drowsy and dumb, her curly blonde hair was never more temptingly messy. She faced Ciemnosc, who had just come down a land-type octopus that can go up to 300 km/h… up any surface, and without needing to stop for a damn minute like other little fellas that hadn’t been trained for long.

“Hello Cici, back to work agane?” Tini asked, and Ciemnosc, who was walking towards the east of the platform nodded and spoke back to her as if meeting a neighbor. A good neighbor, though. “Go back to sleep. It’s time for me to start with my own buildings. If I stay more time in your buildings, Older Brother would force me to marry you.”

“Ew, no no no. Go get to wurk then. Not like I wanna see you in my buildings all day, moving around with a serious, determined face and bloodthirsty at times. It definitely isn’t cute! Hmph!” Tini the Tirant said, sticking her tongue before turning around and bending over a little, ‘planting her ass on his face’ from this distance in order to childishly get back at Ciemnosc. But ah, she couldn’t tell how much Ciemnosc rated her little ass for as small as it was; it was a female ass nonetheless, and it had to be valued, mm mm.

Step, step, step, step.

Ciemnosc kept walking after noticing that she was perhaps also having wet dreams and that she should learn the array formation he taught her already, or else he might take a bite?

Having already taught Tini the array formation in charge of keeping one’s clothes or even walls from Spirit Sense, the one that really worked and not something ‘amateurish’ like the deceased elder Apegos’s work back then - which was once he knew that both she and Older Brother were ‘okay’— in his mind —in terms of array formation, he could tell Tini was practicing daily but still couldn’t get it and fully inscribe that array formation.

Just as well, not Tini nor Older Brother needed to ask Ciemnosc if he was going to get more staff to help. They now understood since the second day that it was something he wanted to do himself. Even though hiring some cultivators to help build up would allow him to finish in probably not even ¾ s of a day, he was still going to do it all on his own, and of course, they respected such a thing despite only ‘getting’ from him the fact that he ‘needed’ to do it this way.

In any case, right now, only a few days had gone by since the day that he came with some staff members of the Finances Management building. And Ciemnosc was not a disappointing fella as he directly finished Older Brother’s buildings and made a wonder-looking simple task out of just a day. By the time Ciemnosc was finished with such, Tini the Tranquil One practically dragged him over to her building and got him to even add a couple of things.

In the end, only today. Which was the 4th day since he entered the Rocaloi Academy’s secret workshop, sacred lands of sorts, did he finally get to work with his own side of the platform. He only had the materials being processed by a lot, but differently few small machines that helped him process certain materials like the most basic ones, such as wood, and stone. And even sand, dirt, and leaves as well as hay.

It wasn’t just the ordinary ones, of course, as he was even going to be doing a big deal of researching and studying, which would need a large number of requirements so that the whole building that it was being used wouldn’t come tumbling down on its own without any ‘outside help’ such as a bombardment or perhaps a big ol’ Creature crashing against it.

While each of them could have very specific and different properties, they were all alright in Ciemnosc’s eyes. He instead felt like he knew and had ‘practiced’ with such materials too much already and longed to find brand new batches of such materials to start learning again.

But now, all he could do was to depend more on protective arrays rather than the material itself, it was going to be difficult to gain as much metal as the Self-Mutilating Honores Sect does for the time being and in a short while as well. Unless… they, the Rocaloi Academy, took control over the whole ‘true west’. And that included the Little Lake…

… Days passed by with Ciemnosc starting to work, all on his own, with the east side of the platform, having also of course already finished with the decorations towards the middle of the platform. Besides that, the paving of the platform was changed, with a bit of simple, mere dirt also placed around the middle to surround the trees, the green fences, and flowers that were going to mature and grow on their own - naturally.

Both Older Brother and Tini quickly got used to having Ciemnosc create so much shit in the distance as they could see Ciemnosc really just doing incredibly well on his own, not once looking in their direction to see how they were doing - that focused was the little boy.

But they were also quickly used to their own new buildings. The changes were monstrous, as array formations were here and there even all over the most normal and ordinary places to achieve their goal of protecting and granting security to the ‘precious owners’ inside. And that was just in the matters of security. While there were many more protecting arrays surrounding the buildings of course.

This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

But it was also in their working areas that they had incredible improvements. It wasn’t as if their buildings didn’t have any array formations on them. But compared to the ones before and that is all over the most important places of the Rocaloi Academy, there was a huge improvement in efficiency towards what their work was about and not just about preserving ingredients or study objects.

But Ciemnosc himself was also not just building every day like crazy as if he was too rude to know anything else to do while he was doing such; for example, he read through Lady Calisneia’s diary

One of the things he got to know was that Lady Calisneia was nothing like the ancient records told about her, she was indeed the most incredible alchemy genius perhaps carrying some of what Ciemnosc had already ‘known’ since practically forever.

In her diary, she also wrote about the many things that were to be known by anyone who loved alchemy and any Craftsperson who still didn’t know if they were to focus on only one profession or if they were unsure as to what they had chosen to be correct for them.

In one way or another, her diary could also be said to be a kind of manual. One that explains a lot about the enigma of everything being alive and having a ‘thing’ of its own. Ciemnosc could only say that maybe she received the same feeling as he does sometimes, especially when taking his whip out, and using it excessively with his whole body getting tremendously taxed by it.

On the other hand, though his ‘that something’ was there, lying ‘dormant’, he could ‘feel’ the same from the herbs, plants, and some Creatures that were of a mildly high cultivation base. Though it was just a little bit of knowledge, it kinda served Ciemnosc, who was very very curious about the ‘something’ that also ended up giving him a great scare in his breakthrough into the Spirit Gathering realm.

As for the solidification of his cultivation base, his foundation, it had… actually somewhat solidified up, though it was definitely not comparable to eating higher realm cultivators than himself or battling nonstop - but it still got to help Ciemnosc’s cultivation base to solidify.

Still, he was doing all of this while waiting to receive his first mission in the Rocaloi Academy… that wasn’t a solo type of mission and one that would matter whatever he was to do. Leading a team, having become a Genius… If Ciemnosc wasn’t capable of affecting the situation, then why even bother continuing on this path. He had to do it all and not fail… her - his Mommy.

And that was how the platform came to completely change over the course of just a few days, not even a whole week as, by the end of the 7th day since he joined the workshop, all his buildings, array formations, and decorations in the middle were all set and done. Especially…

“... How is it?” Just as Ciemnosc was tapping on a strange machine with light, girly colors on it, he heard Older Brother’s voice as the latter came over and rubbed his palms with anticipation and anxiety at the same time. Ciemnosc just shrugged his shoulders and lazily almost closed his eyes, taking a step back. His eyes flashed as his eyes looked in the direction of Tini’s soft building.

… Creeeaak~. Step step step step!

“CIEMNOOOOSC, stop watching me baaaaaa~aaath!” Tini furiously shouted as she lunged at Ciemnosc, ignoring the fact that her Older Brother was there. Her hair blackened as it was hella wet, not even bothering to dry it up with her Power Energy while her clothes were neat and all but she reeked of soap and hair treatment products.

Thud, pla pla pla plah~.

As soon as she straddled the strong semi muscles torso of the poor innocent privacy violator Ciemnosc, her wet hair went to his head to ‘slap’ him over and over again. But it really was more like a lover’s naughty teasing as he could only feel a heavy strand, or several, hit his face before getting comfy and warm on his skin and even lightly caressing his face as she continued on ‘slapping’ him with her head shaking nos nonstop.

“Ahem! Okay, okay, okay.” Older Brother, instead of coming to Ciemnosc’s rescue, intervened once he noticed that Ciemnosc was actually enjoying feeling the dumb girl’s dumb actions that were actually kinda nice to see them frolicking like that.

“Oh, ahaheey, sorry Older Brother, I was just washing and he- he… boo- eh?!” Tini the Truly Sad One was complaining to her dad-like figure about her tomboy-like figure as she stood up, and Older Brother looked at her with tired, narrowed eyes of ‘I’m tired’ and ‘cease bullshitting me, young lass’. But then, just as Ciemnosc was standing up, his torso slightly feeling warm as well, ah, she didn’t wear anything besides her pants; it was good she at least put clothes on with her own inscribed anti-Spirit Sense prying array formations.

When, suddenly, all Ciemnosc could tell was that there was a strong change in the winter, and the next thing he knew was that the warmth from before came back and this time towards his pelvis as a koala grasped his body to death!

Her legs wrapped around his waist, her elbows’ nooks all over his nape, and the right side of her face all over the right side of his face. As she wanted her head to be eaten by his skin, she pressed her face hard against him, also trying to break his neck with her growing breasts, which were already quite grown, hm.

“Ic- Iceey- Ice cream!!” While still in that position, Tini gave Ciemnosc his pay, an eskimo kiss, before turning towards the ice cream to her right and to Ciemnosc’s left. Extending her right open palm over it, she grabbed at it from a tube and pulled her and Ciemnosc’s bodies over it, dexterously grabbing a cup and quickly pulling a tiny lever with her cup below the lever’s respective mouth below.

Csshhh~.

A wonderful pink, with little sparkling somethings within it, began to ever so smoothly flow out and down into her cup, her obscure blue eyes fully open. And an Older Brother feeling his lungs as if they could start beating from now on as well. She did not hesitate to gulp down that ice cream, the flavor of ‘magical strawberries’ and ‘magical sparkles’ all inside her tummy now, her brain cleared off of repercussions.

She smiled, smiled like she had not for so many years, smiled like he first saw her when she was just a stupid, ugly, and perfect baby in her parent’s arms. Ciemnosc spoke at this moment, while Older Brother took his time being all emotional and silly in an old mannerism.

“You are a beauty and all, but Tini, you plan on living on top of me from now on?” Ciemnosc’s voice was pretty much flat as Tini looked down at him, kinda, as even now her eyes were still below his nose. She wordlessly grabbed the cup with her left hand as Ciemnosc rotated their position once, and Older Brother pulled on another mini lever that the cup was under.

Cssshh~.

A very dark color came out, but it was unmistakably a chocolate flavor, as the ‘tough’ and modified smell of chocolate assaulted their 3 noses altogether. Without saying a thing, she retrieved the cup once it was double full, moving it towards Ciemnosc’s mouth, who in return took in some bits of it and continued to bite on even when already inside his mouth.

“Ah, come here,” Tini said, her left thumb finding its way onto his chin and scooping some remnants of his savage-like eating habits; but the truth was, Ciemnosc wasn’t that okay with sweets…

Her left thumb sucked into her own mouth. Ciemnosc looked ‘up’ at her as she seemed so haughty and too damn spoiled right now. Without a single moment of rethinking about it, his hands went below her buttocks and he placed them there without changing his expression, looking at her straight and so directly it almost convinced Tini that it was all in her head.

“Let go~!” Tini tried acting cute, but her buttocks began to feel some naughty yolks begin pressing into her tiny pair of meat bums. So, she began fighting for survival. “Let gooo~! …I won’t give you more yummy stuff then, fine by me, more for me! Hmhp! …HHMM, okay I get it, the Genius wins, so please let this little fairy go, aaaaah~!”

But it was futile. Ciemnosc was even starting to pinch and drag out what little bit of meat there was from their bums. Meanwhile, Older Brother was just crying silently to the side, supporting himself with his left arm on the ice cream machine and facing away from them.

“Okay, I won’t be silly anymore. I’ll behave and eat lots of ice cream. Now let my tail rest, okay? Unless… you marry me!!” Tini took her secret weapon out, her body with a fully straight back, she unbuttoned her dress’s upper shirt and began revealing a pair of decently big bunnies’ cleavage. Ciemnosc was unfazed though, and only let her go after chuckling out and looking ‘up’ at her, “Pf-tsk.”

“Hmmmllluuh~,” once she settled down on the dear floor, her bottom trembling and tingly all over, she patted her precious bums a few times until the tingling was reduced by a bit, but still difficult to even think about without going coo coo. She took a last look at Ciemnosc, stuck her tongue out at him, and crossed her eyes in ‘Xs’ from how hard she shut her eyes before moving her tongue to the cup still full of ice cream and swaying her hips back into her soft building. It seemed like she was staying here tonight to keep on studying.

“Mm, my turn to leave, Older Brother.” Ciemnosc said, looking at the back of Older Brother before the former’s steps began sounding, and only then did Older Brother realize that Tini had already left to avoid getting any more ‘shameful’, but he knew she couldn’t be more glad about this ice cream machine.

“Ah, sure Ciemnosc, than- eh?” But as Older Brother turned around to give Ciemnosc his thanks, he noticed that nobody was there, really reminding him of that other night. And even as he turned to look at the landing zone, there was no one nor nothing there, only darkness.

But might as well. It was already late, and the whole fate of the world’s strongest Region was going to turn over just tomorrow.
