Chapter 557: Chapter 557 – 4th member.
<<Welp... Shit.>>
<<There is 6th divinity user out there.>>
[Phantasia – Desert and Beauty]
[Thanatos - Beast And Ferality]
[Apple – Chains?]
[Diamond – Blood?]
[Arthur – Sun?]
[(NEW) ??? - ???]
<<This really fucking.... I mean, I did predicted this.>>
<<But still... Damn.>>
<<...But who?>>
<<Some random?>>
<<Or maybe Apple?>>
<<Apple... He discovered the divinity related to chains before Maparapara got her hands on it and from what we found out, he obtained that divinity long time ago... And he now also revealed himself to the public, with a guild non the less.>>
<<Is the divinity of chains isn’t the only the only divinity his guild had obtained?>>
<<This is annoying to say the least.>>
<<...Welp... Nothing we can do about this now that they had obtained the divinity.>>
<<The only thing we can do is to make sure no additional divinity users wouldn’t arise.>>
<<But obviously we needed to get to the work.>>
<<I’ve headed back home with our new recruit Orion, before then making bringing her to my base.>>
"Huh... So, the vampires have freaking cities underground everywhere, and your base is also underground?" – asked Orion as she alongside Phantasia were traversing the well build massive underground passage.
"Pretty much." – said Phantasia.
"I want to work in secret and what not, so I really don’t want any bullshit situations too, so I settle on an underground."
"Huh...."
"...Question." – said Orion.
"Will it be something like a demon lord castle?"
"Em... Try a city." – said Phantasia as the due arrived at the massive gate, before then passing right through it.
"..."
(Damn... How heavy security here is?) – thought Orion as she walked through the long corridor inside of thick wall... Before then arriving at the other side of the wall.
"..."
"Huh... You weren’t kidding?" – said Orion as the duo arrived at the underground base city, Abaddon, a city under Phantasia’s control.
"This whole place... Is yours?"
"Yeb." – replied Phantasia.
"Or to be more exactly, I’ve build this entire city from ground up."
"!"
"Wait, you made this whole place!?" – asked excited Orion.
"Pretty much. Anyway, we are heading to me ’evil demon lord castle’ thing you see in the distance." – said Phantasia as he pointed at the massive castle that stood out in the middle of the city.
<<Orion seemed surprised to say the least.>>
<<I mean, this city was made completely by me and my creatures.>>
<<She thought that maybe vampires gave me a city, but nope. This entire place is mine.>>
<<After we arrived at the city, I brough Orion back to the castle and began taking her date as well as preferences, allowing me to somewhat make a framework for her items.>>
<<And while I was working on her equipment, I’ve allowed her to wander around the city.>>
<<She was quiet curios about it... And apparently she was quiet excited while doing it.>>
<<She said that it was nice city, a city that combines technology and magic.>>
<<According to the girls, it seems she was most excited about the tanks and planes that we had in the hangar.>>
<<But she had one complain.>>
"Why are they all... Girls?"
<<...>>
<<Well, that complain made sense, and there is really no point in hiding it.>>
<<I will reveal to her it soon.>>
<<But before hand, I called her over and told her that I’ve finished making her equipment.>>
"Oh... Huh... Everything is epic rarity?!" – asked Orion as she was checking her new equipment.
"Honestly speaking I could had made you unique per say, but the problem is your current build and stats... If you had both somewhat better developed build and higher stats, you could easily equip much stronger equipment." – explained Phantasia.
"Still, we want you to level up as fast as possible, so you could possible handle the trial of the divinity."
(Well, he say that... Still, everything is extremely solid!) – thought Orion as she was checking her equipment.
(This is freaking perfect equipment for my shitty build!)
"?"
"By the way, I don’t see a bow anywhere?" – said Orion as she only noticed the two short bent swords on the table.
"Oh, it is here." – said Phantasia as he picked up the two swords.
"Look." – said Phantasia as connected the two swords by their pommels, before then twisting both weapons around, causing the pommels to fuse into the one while the blade of the bow bended further and created a glowing string that that was connected on both tips of the blade.
"OH! A transformation weapon?!" – asked excited Orion.
"Well, not my idea per say though." – replied Phantasia.
"Elven, to be precise. They use combination of two swords that then can combine into the bow."
"From what I remember, only elven elites only use this kind of weapons." – said Phantasia as he handed over the bow to Orion who instantly began checking out her new weapon, messing around with it somewhat, before then turning it into the two swords once again.
"...Okay. This is fucking cool." – said Orion as she looked extremely excited at her new weapons.
"Glad that you like them." – said Phantasia.
"...By the way... I’ve been meaning to ask... But who are they?" – asked Orion as there were two woman standing in the room.
One looked like a young adult woman in her 20-30, while another looking like a little girl in her 12-16.
"I mean... While exploring the city, I’ve found only woman here... You know... Em...."
"Is this like your... Well..." – Orion approached Phantasia in order to whisper in his ear.
"Is this like your harem or something like that?"
"Hm? No. They are not this or anything." – said Phantasia.
"Let me explain."
"But please, don’t tell ANYBODY about this, okay?"
"Em... Okay?" – said alarmed Orion.
"..."
"Well then, let me introduce you to my creations." – said Phantasia.
"Or you can also call them, my daughters."
"???" – Orion looked extremely confused.
"We are homunculuses." – said Eve as she stepped forward.
"We had been created by our master Phantasia."
"homunculus?" – said Orion.
"Wait, you mean those man made beings that the organization is using?"
<<Well, I’m really not the only one using the homunculuses.>>
<<To create the true homunculus you need something.>>
<<A materials from the real person.>>
<<Obviously there was no way to hide my discovery according to the "Kid", since the vampires will use homunculuses themselves in large scale.>>
<<So I’ve made my discovery public.>>
<<However, only the tops of the organization, the one that made the vow of perfect alliance, those who cannot physically betray the organization were only ones that were allowed to use and know about homunculus’s production method.>>
<<Obviously they were being produced to be weapons, while also exposing the heaven and hell for their inhuman practice of ’replacing people with dolls’.>>
"These two are my first two creations." – said Phantasia.
"Eve."
"And Bell."
"It is pleasure to meet you." – said Even as she bowed her head.
"Sup." – said Bell.’
"..."
"Em... Hi?" – said Orion.
(Huh... So, they are real?) – thought Orion.
(Are they like tamed creatures? Or like NPCs though?)
(I mean, he did called them his "creations".)
"?"
"Wait, by any chance, those people in the plane back there were also homunculuses?" – asked curious Orion.
"Yeb. They were." – said Phantasia.
"Huh... Just asking, but how many of your...Em... ’Daughters’ you have?" – asked Orion.
"Well, originally it was few of us, but at this point there is a freaking army of us." – said Bell.
"???"
"Army?" – asked confused and alarmed Orion.
"...Wait... Are you telling me, that every single person that I’ve encountered here... ALL of them are homunculuses that YOU MADE?!" – shouted surprised Orion as she turned towards Phantasia.
"Yeb." – replied Phantasia calmly.
"..."
(Oh fuck.) – thought Orion.
(How many.... How many fucking of them are out there?!)
(You are telling me, that he not only made this freaking city, but also made a whole ass civilization?!)
(Is this guy trying to make nation or something in future?!)
"..."
"I know you still have many questions and all." – said Phantasia as he put his hand on Orion’s shoulder.
"However, I really have no time to really no time on you."
"Or more exactly, things got so fucked up out there that I don’t have time to babysit you."
"So, I’ve organized some help." – said Phantasia as he looked towards Eve and Bell.
"In short, I will need to go out again and I will be also looking for the divinity for you to inherit."
"But obviously, if you are too weak, then you can possible kiss your hopes of obtaining divinity straight in the ass."
"...So in short, just focus on leveling up?" – asked Orion.
"Pretty much." – said Phantasia.
"But hey, don’t worry."
"This time there won’t be anybody stealing your hunting grounds, I’ve made sure of that." – said Phantasia as he removed his hand.
"Girls, if she has any questions, then please answer them." – said Phantasia as he walked towards Bell and Eve.
"Don’t worry master. We will make sure that miss Orion’s growth will be steady." – said Eve.
"Yeah! Don’t worry father! We will make sure that this girl can struggle dragons with her bare hands!" – said Bell.
<<Well then, this is over with.>>
<<Orion has officially joined our little faction and she had been equipped with brand new equipment.>>
<<She also shouldn’t have any problem with hunting like before and the girls will provide her with some support as well.>>
<<She should be able to level up somewhat fast.>>
<<But still, it is obviously not over.>>
<<There is still matter of the fifth recruit.... And most importantly, divinity.>>
<<How many people are currently hunting for divinity?>>
<<We don’t know.>>
<<Nor we know for 100% where divinities could be hidden.>>
<<We need to find at least 3 divinities that are still intact.>>
<<One for Maparapara.>>
<<One for Orion.>>
<<And one for our soon to be fifth member.>>
<<Still, it won’t be easy... And let’s not beat around the bush.>>
<<Soon it will be a freaking war over these things.>>
<<It just matter of time before people will start to murder each other in order to obtain the divinities.>>
<<And honestly speaking right now?>>
<<That time may come way sooner that I’ve had predicted.>>
<<If we are not fast enough right now... Then there is a good chance that my whole endgame plan may come undone.>>
<<So, we need to hurry.>>
<<And find those goddamned divinities.>><<
