"Haaa... isn't life wonderful?"
As I sat atop my newly constructed tower, I watched the world from a glorified standing point.
The blue sky, the lukewarm sun, and the white clouds that drifted slowly.
Everything was so peaceful up here.
So beautiful.
The lands spread about for miles—even the mountains that peaked at the clouds. I could see them all from my distance.
"Project Overwatch is a success." I smiled, tapping the extrely sturdy tower floor.
I was currently over a hundred feet from the ground—standing on the flat roof of the watchtower I designed.
Designed for observation in all directions, I made sure it was tall enough for its purpose.
"Now we can detect enemy attacks from a far range and a much higher angle compared to before." I nodded with a smile.
While I was currently on the roof, the true guardpost would be situated inside the tower itself.
It had four major openings at the cardinal angles, so the four guards who would be situated there could observe all the possible directions that the enemy could attack from.
Occasional shifts would ensure work effectiveness and alertness.
And, there was, of course, a bell I personally enchanted which hung on the ceiling. The guards could easily use it to alert the settlent of any harm that could befall us.
Based on how far I could see, we would have at least twelve hours—if not more to prepare for enemy invasion.
If the enemy was on foot, we could have a whole day.
"Once again, our security system is tighter than ever." I bead, looking down to observe the settlent beneath .
Everyone was working so hard—engaged in one activity or the other.
The walls had been extended, and we now had access to way more territory than before.
What used to be the whole settlent beca classified as a residential area, and a separate patch of land was used for farmland.
I made the manufacturing site also separated from the residential area—since it was unhealthy to place them close to each other.
Demons were working hard in constructing the highly fortified buildings we would be using for battle, and I could see their supervisor being hard on them.
"She's wearing clothes now..." I smiled in satisfaction.
It was a tough job getting Lilith to put on clothes, but she was finally getting used to it. That ward my heart.
Her current outfit was a dark red crop top and tight black jeans.
It seed she enjoyed extrely slim-fit clothes.
As for shoes... she wore dark boots.
I didn't get it too, but those were her preference.
I turned my gaze from the construction sites and looked toward our barracks—watching as Lucy trained the denizens of our little town.
Her fiery spirit hadn't dwindled since I t her, and she remained as ferocious as ever. To be honest, I still got the shivers anyti we spoke.
I an, I could beat her in a fight now, but... Lucy still made nervous.
As for the people she trained—they seed to be in a lot of pain, but their determined expressions told they weren't giving up anyti soon.
To protect our ho, they were all resolved to beco much stronger.
"I'm happy to see that."
Byron was overseeing things at the manufacturing plant. Having Lower Class Demons serve as the heavy lifters while using the craftsmanship of the humans, we were making groundbreaking technology using the knowledge I had of this world.
"We'll be needing more Mana Chalk and rcury soon..."
It was a bother that we had to go to the Adventurer's City anyti we wanted to get those resources.
Wasn't there a way to artificially grow our own supply here? Perhaps we could discover a mine where they would be available.
My mind was more active than ever these days as I tried resolving so many issues.
So much work awaited on a daily basis that there was hardly any ti to catch a break.
"For example, that one..." I looked in the direction of the residential area.
It was now properly tiled, and the houses were no longer tents.
Yes, we had actual hos made of stone bricks.
It was a bit tricky, but by using Magic to replicate certain stuff like cent, we finally pulled it off.
It took a week to sort through the project, so I was really happy when it worked.
The tiled roads also had a similar story.
Not only had our territory expanded, but we were advancing daily. Advancent ant effort. Effort ant ti. Ti ant work.
And all the work eventually ca to .
"Damn... it's been a full month already." A tear nearly escaped my eyes.
We had really co a long way from when I started this journey, and for that... I was truly happy.
Everything was so peaceful, but that didn't make lazy.
I made sure our farming project was going on smoothly, and the storage area was taken care of with Magic Runes which prevented rot.
I even got my personal freezer from my System Shop, so we could all have so cold treats once in a while.
Our military might was improving, and so were our defenses. Everyone was living a much happier, more productive life.
The Demons had settled in nicely, even though they lived in a segregated location within the residential area.
It wasn't due to racism.
'Demons constantly emit Miasma, so living with them isn't healthy.'
Even when they worked together, I had the humans put on safety vests that were enchanted. This blocked off the Miasma for so ti.
'The effects aren't forever, though. They also need to be charged, so they're strictly for working hours.'
Ultimately, this divide would always exist—unless I sohow solved the Miasma issue.
"That can wait!"
At the mont, two major things were on my mind.
One was business.
We had been stocking our foodstuff and exotic fruits—most of which were from my original world.
Now that we had enough, it was ti to start doing business.
