“A race can be killed, and eventually you’ll end up uprooting the source of plaque using this way. So you won’t miss anything by doing this, right?”

Well… he was pretty hyped up for a reason I couldn’t get about helping such a race. But he was also a bit convincing.

If I really got a way to close up those sources of plaque in towns and cities, then it would be great. As he just said, if it turns out to be a brutal war, then I have nothing to complain about.

At least we’d get a chance to purge our lands from this damn plaque and curse.

“Ok, you got my word,” I slowly nodded and Tove was really smart.

“Does lord already have healing energy in his possession?”

“Something like that,” I didn’t give a direct answer as I still didn’t know if this would work or not.

“That’s… Awesome!”

Such the happiness he showed in his tone and the hard features of his face cracking up in such a big smile made me sigh.

This necromancer ex-general… Did he have a girlfriend from the zombie race before or what?

“Go down there,” I got tired speaking about this issue, “train and get stronger. This world is still evolving, and with it the energy here will get denser and higher. Don’t disappoint me, or else…”

“No lord, we won’t slack,” he got my point, “we will start training from this moment until you call for us.”

“Great,” I waved my hand for them to leave. Summoning them to any fight wasn’t going to be an issue.

After all… They were bound warriors to me. I could simply recall them back any time I wanted and resummon them again.

I grew curious, would this work while being in another world or what?

Burdened by what Tove said about the zombies, I went outside.

And just during this time, the size of this pocket world seemed to grow bigger. I knew it was thanks to the ongoing expansion there. And that made me grin, forgetting what Tove annoyed me with for the time being.

When that plaque would hit my lands, I’d see if his weird method would work or not.

As I went out, I headed directly towards my capital.

My forces were now scattered at the Hector big continent, taking control over all of it.

That would take time. And I had to see what the two girls did while I was away.

However… Just when I moved fast for half an hour, and just before seeing the ocean once again, I saw something else that startled me.

“What the heck are you doing here?!” My chariot’s speed was much faster than the chariots my friends had.

And just up front, I saw the chariot of Angelica moving towards the direction of the capital.

“What? Did you forget to tell me something?”

We were just a few tens of miles away from my capital, a distance that I could easily cross in less than half an hour.

But meeting her here, and hearing what she said made me frown!

“What do you mean by that? I left you four hours ago! At least ten!”

“Ten? No way! We just departed in almost an hour or less!!”

She shouted in response to my words, shocking me more.

“We just left each other an hour ago? Are you sure?!!” I had to ask again, and she firmly nodded, while giving me a look like the one I used to give to the old man before; a gaze worthy of a mad man!

“I was just travelling towards the capital. What? Did you forget something or what?”

“…”

In response to that, I didn’t give any answer and just got lost in deep thoughts.

I was sure… I was absolutely sure that I spent almost ten hours at least in my pocket world.

And here she said it took less than an hour… Wait… Don’t tell me… My time manipulation ability worked there as well!!

“Hahahaha! That’s terrific, hahahaha!” and once I reached such a discovery, I started to laugh in such a hysterical way.

“Sigh! I knew something was wrong in your head at some point,” and the all ignorant Angelica pointed at her head in a signal for being crazy.

Well… This came out of the blue to be honest! Like this I could leave my boys there to train and get stronger without worrying about the short time we had.

Damn! This time manipulation ability of mine was really OP! It affected the time at my second Earth to run twenty times slower than Earth. And now, it made the time run ten times slower in my pocket world compared to Earth.

Such news… I just hoped it kept working like this like… Forever!

“Come on board then,” I said with a smile that wasn’t wiped out until we arrived at the capital.

“What about these two?” she pointed at the sleeping Lily and Legend.

“I’ll bring them then,” I knew she was weak to handle the two so I simply jumped and brought them over my chariot.

“Why are you… Looking a bit different? Since when have you shown such an attitude of helping others?” and when we started moving again using my chariot, she said such weird words that pained me.

“Come on! Who gave you the chariot? Who helped you control and lead such large armies? Who helped you to get the cosmic relic site?”

“I didn’t get it yet!”

“You will when you are in the other world,” I rolled my eyes. Just what was the heck wrong with that cosmic site?!! “I also was the one to bring that world to your life, right?”

“Well… But you never did something like that before.”

“Like what?”

“Volunteering to help in such labour work,” she went into silence for a long minute, before adding such a crazy comment, “it seems what Hilary is feeling might be true. You… Are you interested in this all scales girl or what?”
