Chapter 255 - Tricked
With that being said, both Frer and Aisha didn't hesitate as they entered the Hidden Paradise through the small portal in front of them.
'That was easier than I thought'
After he thought that, Shane couldn't help but speak out his next thoughts to everyone within the Hidden Paradise.
"I'm glad that everyone is finally here. We're a small study group now! Let's give our best to receive the best results….Frer and Aisha will probably love to help everyone!
"
Earlier, he had been unsure as to how to teach everything required to pass the final exam because he had to study most of the things too, but with Frer and Aisha there, Shane was able to leave them alone.
"Talia, please explain everything to the newcomers. Aimy and Olivia will join my faction, once I establish it, while Frer and Aisha belong to the Valkyrie unit.
"
With that being said, Shane's consciousness left the Hidden Paradise, leaving behind four dumbfounded girls who had appeared within a small world, where eight young students were working hard.
"Is that some sort of ...dimension? And what the hell is such a large snake doing here??
" Olivia asked, not sure of what she was currently seeing.
Even the other three were confused by the scene in front of them, as Talia approached them with a hesitant smile.
She was not sure what Shane planned to do with them, but it looked like he wanted everyone to study.
They had much better things to do, but from the way Shane spoke about it, Talia could tell that there was more to it than she could think of.
'Our teachers might be missing us? No...I highly doubt that and neither does anyone know about the fact that we are within Shane's world...who would even imagine something like that?
Smiling weirdly, not even she could understand how they had ended up within Shane's small world.
With Umbra nearby, who ate lots of food at that!
In the beginning, this was weird and everyone felt a bit uncomfortable around a 50-meters-long snake, eating huge beast carcasses at once.
However, their fear lessened after they had noticed how docile it was to Shane and that Umbra would even sacrifice his own life to protect Shane.
As such, they could live in harmony with each other.
Looking at the four girls, Talia began to wonder how she should explain everything as Maya, who had come with Talia suddenly said.
"This is Shane's world, the snake is Shane's tamed beast and we're his artisan group. You guys can already see the Nightshade flower field, and behind that is our house, where we're living.
Next to that is a workshop and the other things are self-explanatory!
"
After Shane had shown her that she was not useless, Maya was filled with newfound hope, and her confidence began to build up slowly.
She was also aware of the fact that some things might be difficult to understand if the explanation was riddled with complex terms and jargon which caused her to state everything in simple words.
Maya could have said 'This is Shane's world, we are his employees and the snake is his tamed beast!'
If they could digest and accept that, Shane might be able to explain everything more in detail, but was that even necessary for most employees?
Maya doubted it and the most important for employees was their safety and how much they could earn.
Shane provided additional benefits, however, if one was solely focused on gaining money, he could hand out a few blueprints, explain what everyone had to do, and instruct that they should only do as they were told.
His personality was clearly not of a dictator but more of an authoritarian figure, and others would be able to figure that out soon enough.
Aisha and Frer were the fastest to regain their composure as they looked around the small place they were currently in.
'A world?'
**
Meanwhile, Shane was already within the colosseum's elevator waiting for it to arrive at one of the lowest basements.
When the elevator arrived and its door opened, Shane noticed that the whole basement was empty.
'I see...one room is empty, alright Aunty.' Smiling lightly, he couldn't help but think that her words were a gross understatement.
However, instead of bothering about the large rooms, he walked towards the room number he had received permission to use.
After he found the room, he entered it before he glanced around the empty space.
It was a small, empty storage room, but perfect for him to make use of.
The spatial door didn't require much space, either way.
As such, he took out the space door from his spatial ring, next to the other one before he placed it neatly on the ground.
It took him less than five minutes before he was sure of the exact spot he wanted to place it at. Dusting his hands together, he informed Talia and the others that he was done.
Only Dyr, Han, and the other were able to hear him because the girls were busy talking to each other.
Nobody understood what they were talking about but even Clara, who was rather shy, walked away from her twin brother to talk with the girls.
In the end, Shane didn't have to think too much about what they were doing and he didn't want to eavesdrop.
As such, he decided to enter the academy's shop in order to purchase as many Tier-1, high-quality nutrition solutions as possible.
He would need them soon and it was important to create a perfect Apprentice physique as fast as possible.
There were many things he wanted to accomplish, but the most important for now was a perfect physique and to enter the Expert stage.
In the end, he had to figure out how many funds he had to accumulate to awaken his world's mana heart as well!
It was very fortunate that the self-earned tag didn't vanish after he had obtained the ballistae Dyr and Han had manufactured, while the same didn't happen when he had sold the Nightshade flowers, the others had tended to!
As such, it was extremely beneficial for him, but that didn't mean he could earn millions of gold coins at the Apprentice stage!
He could wait a year or longer before breaking into the Expert stage, but if he were to be honest, this would shatter his plan completely!
Even if awakening his world's mana heart would cost 100 million gold coins, he was confident in earning that much while he remained within the Basic dimension in order to complete all mythic missions and approach a mana purity of 100% by solving all kinds of missions!
Shane wanted to approach the mana purity of 100% slowly and not instantly after he would have finished the Mythic mission to obtain the perfect expert stage body refining technique!
As such, he would have yet to finish several missions before he would be able to liquefy the gaseous mana within him!
Preparations were the most important and because of that, Shane purchased 27x Tier-1 (Uncommon) nutrition solutions from the Shirai academy's shop.
After that, he was left with less than 100 gold coins, but that was not something that could hurt his stingy heart anymore.
Shane knew that investing money in himself and the artisan group was the best way to use money and instead of being too stingy, it might be better to reward himself once in a while!
Thus, once he had received the nutrition solutions at the warehouse, Shane entered the Dimension Portal once again in order to visit Masua.
Yet, instead of entering the flying crystal island, Shane wanted to roam around and observe Masua's nature and see if he could find beautiful places.
At the same time, he could absorb mana and increase the stored amount of mana which the Hidden Paradise had left.
There was not much for him to do during the next two weeks, except to study, to help the others pass the exam, and start refining his perfect physique.
Nothing pressured him anymore and the only task he might have to accomplish during the next few months was to acquire a few elemental crystals.
In the end, there was no need for him to do that because it was only a request, but Shane thought that he should return the favor he had graciously received.
The Space door was too much of a game-changer for him and with his plan, there shouldn't go anything wrong as long as he would find the perfect elemental crystal cave!
