It was such a pure and secluded ce in this world that I never imagined to ever exist in the chaotic world of apocalypse.


    Just looking around, taking breath in and out, made me feel refreshed.


    “This ce… This is where my main base will be!” I decided, this ce would turn out to be my capital in this world.


    From here, everything would begin. My tale here would start and my people would rule.


    This wasn’t just a pure and secluded ce, but I felt power from its hard to ess route. This wasn’t just any ce, it was a ce that only giants could reach.


    And I was a giant!


    “Wait here, baby, I promise I’lle back soon with my people to turn these peaks into big cities.”


    The top of each peak wasn’t just tippering and narrow as I expected. Each peak had a t surface that spanned for over a hundred mile radius!


    And there were dozens, if not close to a hundred peaks here. This ce… It was really suitable for my capital!_.


    I wouldn’t just build a small city over each peak. I imagined cities built over these mountain peaks, linked together with thick and sturdy floating bridges. I even imagined a few floating inds to give more allure to the sight.


    Floating inds like the ones the Hector paragons used to summon during their fights with me. Of course I wouldn’t go for such a narrow dream to have a limited space floating here.


    I’d work to have my flying cities and fortresses. If I seeded in making any of them move around, then I’d use these fortresses as the main means of transport between here and the world down below.


    This ce… It would be the symbol of power for my human race in this world in the eyes of other races. They would look at the sky, dream about breaking through the clouds and reach heaven here.


    They would look at the flying fortresses with envy and admiration.


    Damn! Just thinking about this scene made my blood boil! I wanted to do it! I wanted to make it happen!


    And I swore at this ce and in that moment that I would make this a reality one day soon.


    But it was too early toe here. I returned back down to the green world, while the thick thunder strikes shielded that heaven off my eyes for now.


    As I returned back, this world lost all the majesty it had before. That ce high up there was enough to make me look down on the world down below.


    “This world is all green and filled with trees. My people can’te here and work on such terrain. I have to bring first those races and let them work here and prepare the world for my people.”


    I decided to bring the big number of races here first. I’d make them work for me. With their great numbers, clearing enough space out of trees wasn’t going to take much time or effort.


    As for the trees cut, I’d turn all of them into wood suitable for my future ns. I’d make entire cities out of wood, I’d make this precious material look asmon as humans looked at it before the time of the apocalypse.


    [Are you here?]


    Last time I was here, I was deprived of any means to contact the outer world. I didn’t know if this limitation was just a quest limitation or it was a general feature of this.


    [Sure, what’s up?]


    Luckily it was a quest time limitation.


    [Send me all the races you got here] I sent, [Also provide enough wood cutting tools for them]


    [Wood cutting tools? Anything specific?]


    [No, themon ones will do] I replied, [But make sure you provide enough for all of them]


    [You… Don’t tell me you got your hands over a treasured forest ce!]


    [Why? Interested?]


    [If the grade of the wood is above average, then indeed I’m interested]


    [I dunno about the grade, yet] I honestly answered, [But if you can send me a group of wood experts to supervise over them, then I can give you an answer pretty much soon]


    [These… Aren’t like themon races we have been capturing for you]


    [I know, but they will be mine from now on]


    She went into silence and didn’t answer. [Think of it as paying an up investment in such a big project] I tried to persuade her.


    [Do you know much resources spent to just nourish a single expert? Do you know how many years it takes for a single prodigy to appear? Do you know how fiercely we fought to secure them?]


    [Just name your price] I grew used to her way of doing deals. No matter how hard orplicated she described the situation, she always did that to ask for a high price.


    The only thing that would make me worry would be for her to directly refuse, or say the impact didn’t have what I needed.


    As long as they got what I needed, she would provide it for me. The only thing she grew the habit of was to y suchme tricks with me.


    Little she knew… My inventory was bulging with low grade bones that I was using to trade with her. Paying thousands and even hundreds of thousands of green bones in a single deal wasn’t that high of a price for someone like me.


    I was the only one providing these bones in the entire universe, making me hold the entire monopoly of such trade and set the price.


    And the price I sat at was the lowest and most affordable for me.


    [We can let go of five, each will cost five thousand bones… No bargain is allowed…]


    [Done!] I didn’t even wait for her to continue her words, [Let’s finalise the deal and send these over after I tell you]


    [You… Sigh! Was it this cheap for you?]


    [Did you decide their price based on my pocket? Come on! Don’t let me search for another impact!]


    [No, no, I’d never do such a thing!] Liar! She was lying, and we both knew that.


    [Fine, send the races first. They need to start working here. Ah, the price of the tools will be on you]


    [What?!!]


    [Consider it your show of interest towards this deal between the two of us]


    [But… You don’t know if there is any good grade wood out there!]


    [Girl… When did I disappoint your expectations before?] Iughed at her hesitation and shock.
