n461 A Change of Pace .

nEveryone was doing their own training, trying to get even a little more powerful than before.

nAs we were doing so, Ember went out for a while to fetch the tamed monsters of the Succubus tamers per their request, since they weren’t able to be together for a while.

nBefore the evening came, the succubus tamers went back to prepare, with their tamed monsters left behind to play with each other and pass the time.

nOther than our members increasing by a few heads, nothing changed.

nFang and Igni were still unable to enter their God Kingdoms, along with Minerva and Hekate, who were now also stuck in the same problem.

nOn the other hand, Ember kept on popping in and out as she was working on things, while Fatima was reaching the saturation of the 8th stage now. She should be able to challenge the 8th stage by tomorrow if all goes well.

nFina and the two were now moving on to copy Fatima, trying to increase their level using Essence Crystals.

nOf course, rather than using a God-level Essence Crystal, they preferred to use 5th to 6th stage ones since those were easier to process, refine, and absorb for them.

nWhen dusk came, we all returned to the skyscraper.

nThere, food was already prepared, about double the quantity from yesterday. Having more time to cook probably helped.

nToday, we also had about a hundred monsters added, with about ten of those being humanoid. Among them, the most powerful was only at the 7th stage, which was a green dragon the size of a stuffed toy.

nAlthough it looked cute, it was apparently powerful enough to level a town if angered. Such destructive powers are almost equivalent to a 9th stage!

nFortunately, none of the new invitees were big eaters. The food still vanished a few moments after dinner started, however. After having a short bath with everyone in the hot springs for the second time, washing away the fatigue from our bodies, we returned to our rooms to sleep… or such was the plan, but again, I was kidnapped from my room and placed in the sealed room with everyone.

nFor better or for worse, the Succubus Tamers refrained from joining in today, so there are a lot fewer members on top of the bed.

nWith fewer eyes around, I also got a little bolder. My hands wandered around, touching everyone here and there as I dozed off.

nThe third day was basically a repeat of the second day, with it starting with a bath, breakfast, training, dinner, and another bath.

nHowever, after that, a change appeared.

n18:39

nEmber suddenly came up with this proposal, and out of curiosity, I agreed. After getting my approval, Ember teleported everyone, along with the bed, to the rooftop.

n“Woah…!”

nAnd I didn’t regret my choice. Above us is a sky filled with bright, flickering stars. It was the same night sky as what could be seen outside!

n“How did you do this?”

nAlthough Ember’s Kingdom was wide, it wasn’t wide enough to reach outer space. As such, having stars in the night sky wasn’t supposed to happen.

nIn fact, the day-night cycle here was also basically the “border” delineating her kingdom, changing colors at specific times. There’s no real sun in this place to give light to everyone, marking the start and end of a day.

nEmber smiled proudly, as if she were waiting for that specific question.

n“I made a projector to project the night sky observed from the back of our satellite to here. I created a glass panel to cover the entire sky, where the light is reflected!”

n“I see!”

nSo she basically made her entire God Kingdom into a giant planetarium!

nThe other girls were also staring at the bright night sky with awe, wondering if they could do the same thing if they reached God Level. .𝒎

nFatima, being the most knowledgeable among everyone concerning astronomy, explained the names of the constellations in the sky with a joyful smile. The others raised questions at certain points, making it a great way to pass the time.

nWith the night sky above our heads and each other’s warmth within arm’s reach, we all went to sleep. If only we could pass our days peacefully, just like this all the time…

nThe next day, the fourth day, another day of training awaits us.

nFatima managed to safely reach the 8th stage, but unfortunately, she still hasn’t “graduated” from her half-machine body. I gently patted her head as I tried to appease her, but it seemed like I didn’t need to worry about her at all.

nShe wasn’t depressed at all, but rather happy that more of her flesh and blood were returning! Without missing a beat, she quickly started stabilizing her energy, returning to training after a short water break. Just as I was going around and helping everyone with their training, especially the succubus tamers, Ember suddenly called to me.

n“Master, all the exoskeletons under construction have been completed, so I will be away until dinner to test them.”

n“Really?!”

n“Eh?”

nEmber seemed surprised as I jumped to her as soon as I heard her words.

nAfter all, the Mecha I piloted last time was practically a battery-powered toy. It was extremely satisfying, but at the same time, the short duration of its battery was vexing. Fortunately, after I told her about nuclear power, she quickly modified her exoskeletons to harness nuclear energy.

n“Testing your G*ndam, I mean, your Exoskeletons would be more efficient if done in a match format! Why don’t we each pilot one and do a mock battle?!”

n“…”

nEmber looked exasperated, but thinking about the benefits of my offer, she quickly agreed.

n“Well, I will be testing the attack and defense modules for each mech either way, so it’s true that doing it in a battle format will be much easier and faster.”

nAfter that, we quickly told everyone else about what Ember and I would be doing. Curious, the girls stopped their training and decided to watch.

nWell, the main reason is that they were curious as to how powerful a “tool” the exoskeletons that Ember made after reaching God-level were. But the non-important reason is that they were just itching for some entertainment.

nEmber then moved everyone to a place near the edge of her kingdom, several hundred kilometers away from the center. Then she called all twelve machines that were newly furnished and ready to battle.
