nFarmhouse

nInside his bedroom, Rezen can be seen. He was sitting on top of his bed as he cultivated

nIn front of him were two mystic gems of the same element. They are black in color but also contain small and subtle yet colorful specks of lights

nBoth mystic gems are already at the 1st fusion rank, courtesy of Rezen’s effort for an entire night

nThese mystic gems were newly acquired types of gems yet Rezen is already fusing them to become 2nd fusion grade gems

nThis was all thanks to his resources!

nRezen waved his hand excitedly and the two mystic gems approached each other

nAs for what type of gems these two are, they are spatial-type!

nSpatial mages are one of the rarest types of mages in the world!

nMost people can condense ungraded mystic gems of the common elements without even studying them. However, spatial mystic gems are different. Even just the ungraded gem already required great comprehension of space!

nOne of the mysterious bananas that Rezen obtained gave him the comprehension of space albeit it was only up to the 2nd fusion rank

nStill, this was already a good thing though spatial mages at the lower ranks were weaker compared to others

nThis was all because space-type spells have high requirements and there is almost nothing that low-level spatial mages could do

nBut one of the mysterious peaches that Rezen ate also gave him a space-type spell and it was quite useful

nThe two 1st fusion grade gems touched each other and they instantly fused together

nThe resulting gem instantly resonates with the natural laws but compared to the two mystic gems before, this resonance was extremely unstable

nThe gem shook violently as if it would explode any moment from now. If that happens, not only would Rezen lose his mystic gems, but he would also receive a backlash

nHowever, with his comprehension of space, there is no way he would not succeed

nRezen waved his hand and a magic circle with the same colors as the spatial gem formed

nHis eyes turn black in color along with the colorful dots of light as if his eyes hold an entire galaxy

nThe magic circle stabilizes the mystic gem and in just a few minutes, the fusion was successful

nAfter the success, Rezen heaved a sigh of relief before he grabbed a glass from his side. This glass contains some sort of green liquid that looks like a juice

nThat green liquid is precisely the condensed essence of vismian grass that he needed to recover his mana

nIndeed, the Spirit Plants Essence Condenser is a blender through and through!

nIt turned the vismian grasses into this smoothie!

nRezen drank the glass’s content before he slapped his forehead. “I should have just used one recovery pill! The vismian grass can be sold for mana stones!” He scolded himself

nAfter learning the required mana stones to upgrade his farm, Rezen has become a bit cheaper

nHe can only sigh at the wasted ‘mana stones’ before he continue cultivating

nHe has a lot of mystic gems that he hasn’t condensed yet and he wants to finish them as soon as possible!

n——-

nIn the end, it took until the next nightfall (mainly because he also has to plant tens of thousands of rainbow clementines and waited before harvesting them) when Rezen finished condensing most of the mystic gems that he know at least one spell of

nThe rainbow clementines almost used up all the mana stones that Rezen has since the seeds he has are not enough and he was back to being poor!

nWhen he was done, Rezen stretched his arms and legs as he finally came out of his room

nOutside his room was Zero. Throughout the entire week, Zero’s power didn’t increase that much and he just consolidated his strength

nPills or spirit plants of Quality 4 costs tens of thousands and Rezen decided to wait until he upgraded his farm to help Zero’s physique improve

nSpirit plants that improve the physique are rare and even more so for the pills since the path of Tattoo Warriors has already become obsolete

nAs such, the price can even increase to almost or at a hundred thousand!

nRezen only had a million mana stones prior to killing the Wolf King, how can he possibly indulge in Zero when he still has many things that needed money?

n“Master, should I reheat the food now?” Zero asks as soon as Rezen went out of his bedroom

n“We can do that later. For now, let’s go bring your brothers and sisters… or well, siblings!”

nOf the 4 million mana stones that Rezen earned from the Wolf King, 2 million were used to ‘recharge’, and another million were used to buy ten Life Seeds!

nThese Life Seeds have a maturity time of around a whole day and by now, they should be ready to be harvested

nSince these Artificial Humans wouldn’t have any genitals, it feels wrong to call them brothers and sisters, the term siblings would be better

nEven Zero was only addressed by Rezen as a man so as to not give away their identities

nZero 1.0 said that their master invented the Life Seeds and you can’t get it anywhere else. Wouldn’t Rezen be inviting disasters if Zero’s identity was found out?

nWith that, the two went out of the farmhouse to ‘harvest’ the Artificial Humans

nOn Rezen’s farm, ten thick stems with large flowers on top can be seen. In the middle of these flowers were sacs and each sac contained one curled-up artificial human inside surrounded by a hazy light

nRezen can only completely see their features when he breaks their sacs

nAs such, Rezen touched the sacs of the Artificial Humans one by one and soon, ten naked people stood in front of him

nFortunately, these people don’t have any gender and there was nothing in between their legs. If not, whether they be a man or a woman, Rezen’s nose might still bleed

n‘Hmm? Doesn’t that make me sound bisexual?’ Rezen thought before shaking his head and throwing those thoughts away

nThe artificial humans kneeled in front of Rezen and called him their master, the same thing that Zero did in the past

n“Alright, alright, stand up guys. No need for this courtesy!” Rezen said as he guided all ten of them inside their new home

nHe gave them one set of clothes each which used up a large chunk of clothes in Rezen’s closet

nAfter all, he came from a normal middle-class family, he doesn’t have a ridiculously large number of clothes

nHowever, since all of his clothes were for males, although the artificial humans have androgynous features, the clothes they wore still gave them a more masculine look

n“This wouldn’t do… if I only let them wear male clothes then wouldn’t all my subordinates be men? People might think I’m being sexist when in reality, I am a believer in true gender equality! Also… wouldn’t people think that I have a harem of beautiful boys?”

nRezen resolved himself into buying female clothes. Seems like he has to make a trip to the city

n“Alright guys, I’ll ask a question. Do all of you have the inherited memories?” Rezen asks and all ten of them nodded their heads much to his delight

nThis means that Zero wouldn’t die from the exhaustion of engraving them with tattoos!

n“Good, good, for now, just engrave your tattoos and become Tattoo Warriors first!” Rezen ordered since these humans are almost no different from ordinary people without their tattoos

nThis was similar to a human with a powerful soul and extensive comprehension but lacks a mystic gem

nThe Artificial Humans all stripped off their newly worn clothes without a sense of shame and they all sat on the floor, reminding Rezen of another problem

nHis house is too small! Even with just an additional ten people, the small house was already cramped!

n“Should I build a dormitory for them? Hmm, that sounds good but in the meantime, I think I at least have to buy them pillows, mattresses, and blankets”

nFor now, Rezen can only have his subordinates sleep in the living room. Zero was also sleeping there but he has the couch but since ten more couches wouldn’t fit in the living room, mattresses would do for now

n“Zero, come with me. We will make a trip to the City!” Rezen said. Fortunately, despite cultivating for a long time, thanks to the recovery pills, he doesn’t feel physically tired

nRezen and Zero just got out of the farmhouse then when their senses suddenly picked up the movement of mana

nTheir senses tingled as they felt the approach of danger

nZero, as Rezen’s subordinate, puts his master’s life as the priority and he moved

nSeveral balls of fire were thrown toward them and Zero effortlessly punched them away as tattoos spread all over his body that resonates with the natural laws

nThe spells used against them were just at the 2nd fusion rank, not something that can harm Zero

n“Who’s there?!” Rezen shouted angrily. What the ** is wrong with the mage or mages that cast that spell?

nAs far as Rezen is concerned, he had never offended anyone!
