Chapter 9 - city and company

It's been a few days and the terraforming is done so I will finally start building everything. I will have the material's near and be using an item like the builder from sub Nautica where it takes the materials and stores it at a atomic level then uses those atoms and rewrites the structure to said item pretty cool if I say so.

I start with the underground like the sewers and wires I will need while also adding pillars into the ground that will act as stabilizers in case something happens. after completing the underground, I start on getting the base for some buildings and marking where streets will go. while i was doing all this I had materials being delivered so I don't run out as i go through them at a fast pace. after finishing the base of buildings, I started with housing instead of stores or the warehouses after that I began to do a warehouse or 2 then the factory that will start putting things out a lot of it is automatic but I will have people trained to repair or work things.

after the factory was finished, I started on what will become the market area as Kuo kuanna will turn into a port for shipments instead of a full settlement. I then start on more residences and putting some residences on the water to give the aqua Faunus. after completing that I started on making a port for people to arrive, I also made sure to add better reception that scrolls will have later. then I started on the company where a lot of things will go on so i decided to do a mini skyscraper it is only 40 floors right now.

I told sienna that she can start recalling after the residences were built so we have the people of Kuo kuanna here now and getting settled as well interviews for the company ongoing. after finishing everything i looked at the new city and it was amazing there's arc reactors to power things and a place where atomic reconstructors are placed for trash.

I started production of safety equipment for workers as before anyone starts, I need it done. after I finished everything, I had paperwork to for logistics and get thing running so I had interviews and training to do so i have reliable people. all of this took a couple months to do so the total time it took to get the company and city running maybe 6 months another month and will have more people to start delegating more.

over the last few months, I spared with Mordred and hung out when I could and she is fierce in a fight, sure I hold back a bit but damn she's strong. recently I caught her sneaking looks at me like when I was building i had my shirt off to deal with the heat at the time and she just would stare. I had no idea she could be like that so maybe the grail affected her more than I thought and now that she's here and not connected to the grail it's not restricting her growth and brainwashing her. she looks free in a sense as she smiles a bit more than at first and I'm not talking bloodthirsty smiles I'm saying real smiles and when i first saw it I was frozen in place as it was one of the most beautiful smiles I've seen.

one of my recent talks with her I asked how she felt, and she said " I feel lighter as if a part me was unlocked and now free. that's the best way I can explain it but I still have that wish I will get it. I also understand just focusing on that it's not living and now that I'm free and can actually be considered a living being instead of a spirit that had no freedom, I will enjoy myself and my second chance that you gave me so thank you."

I smiled at her growth as a person she deserved it I just hope shell make friends soon I don't want her to be lonely while I'm busy. Fenrir has started to trust me a lot more as were both wolf like beings he could sense i was serious about being a true pack. he also trusts Mordred now and I see them walking around every so often and she seems happy about it too. I told her his story and she could understand as it was in our instincts to have a pack so him being betrayed by who he considered his pack hurt him more than a person would.

I'm proud that they are getting better and ill summon again soon but now I'm going through the things that Jaques did and I'm angry that Hes just like those bandits from before. After going through it I start organizing it and build a case against him also making sure he can't weasel his way out.

recently we started selling products and sales have been huge as we use stuff without dust, and I've had ironwood try to contact me to get stuff, but I haven't revealed myself to the public right now the CEO is private and only a few know. not too much more till i start traveling again and go to atlas.

I turned 15 a couple days ago but didn't really care as it's not the first time I've been 15 and I hate puberty so much my voice cracks every now and again it sucks and Mordred laughing at me doesn't help I've also seen Fenrir smirk at me as well. I haven't done a lot of training as I've been busy but sparing with Mordred helps and a big stress reliever. we just got more people coming in from the white fang and sienna has told me that some of them have said no to retreat and it was focused more on the vale branch, and I immediately thought of Adam. I hope Blake is not there nut I soon got my answer.

as I was doing paperwork with ghira as he was sharing his office at home, I had a bit of relaxing music going to help. we then hear a known on the front door but don't do anything as kali will get it and we are usually busy, and she won't disturb us unless important. I then hear kali start screaming for ghira to come here quick and we both were startled so we both ran there to see what happened. once there we see kali hugging a girl with what seems to be cat ears, I immediately knew who it was and smiled. ghira also figured out what was happening and walked up to Blake and started hugging her and saying my daughter is home.

after a bit they started talking and I decided to stay out of, so I went back to the office, but kali spoke " where do you think you're going Doryu?" I stopped and spoke " this is your reunion not mine so i was going back to the office as to give you guys privacy." she looked at me and shook her head and said " you don't need to over the past couple months you stayed your family so no you're not come meet Blake our daughter who is the same age as you and hopefully still a bookworm." she said the last part with a chuckle and Blake groaning in embarrassment. I chuckled and nodded as I introduced myself, " hello Blake and welcome home my name is Doryu Dragonsvayne and I've been staying here while everything was being built and to make sure everything went smoothly."

she looked at me and said, " what do you mean to make sure everything went smoothly and what is with the blindfold?" I then decided to take the blindfold off and show her my eyes ghira and kali never saw them either and I spoke, " well I'm the one who made the plan and i built this by myself in about 7 months and am trying to get everything running without my help. as for my blindfold my eyes attract a lot of attention, and it helps keep my eyes not take in too much info of the world, so my brain does not go into overload. they take info and I mean a lot of info imagine how the brain is a scroll and how they can only store so much data before its full then my eyes keep on wanting to take info and store it constantly. so, if I didn't have them covered at all and all day every day, they took in info my brain would be overloaded. of course, I'm able to have it uncovered for some time I just can't have them on all day. I'm able to see through the blindfold easily so it doesn't make anything a hindrance though i could use sunglasses my eyes just bring a lot of attention."

they were staring into my eyes amazed at how they look, the crystal blue and the draconic slit is really eye catching. they all nodded and agreed Blake said," wow they look really beautiful I have never seen something like that before." I covered them back up and said," well thank you Blake I'm happy a pretty lady likes them." after I said that I could feel ghira glare at me as Blake blushed hard as she was not used to talking to people. she then snapped out if and remembered what I said and spoke, " wait you said you did all this and you're the same age as me how is that possible?" I chuckled at her and said, "well I've been planning this since I was 6 and I'm very smart."

she looked at me as if I grew a second head and was amazed during this time Mordred came back along with Fenrir and stayed silent and I just remembered Blake doesn't like dogs as I remembered it, she saw Fenrir and you could see her eyes widen and she jump up to the chandelier. as I saw Fenrir have a grin that he was going to have fun with her and i chuckled and said, " the beautiful and badass lady there is Mordred Pendragon she is a master swordsman. an then we have Fenrir the god slaying wolf and my best friend and pert of my pack." as i introduced Fenrir he stood proud and tried to look regal but as he was in his puppy form it looked adorable. Blake still didn't like it that he was here but i knew it was only time till she warmed up to him.

after that day Blake was mostly in her room reading and studying but today, I didn't have to do paperwork so I figured I would ask her to train with me so that I could help her out as I've already helped 2 members of team Rwby, I will help Weiss soon. Blake accepted so we went to the backyard and i started training in what she lacked she needed to conquer her fears and instincts so as not to be controlled by them. I helped show her how to do it as well helping her refine her weapon mastery as well as hand to hand. i also helped with some of her studies but not much she's smart it might be her cat part of her as cats have better memory than most.

training her was kind of easy probably because of her experience in the white fang and now that the company and city are operational without me, I can go to atlas and start what i need to do there. it's been a couple months since Blake came back so she got some decent training now it's all her and I've seen her read ninjas of love and she quickly hid it but I saw and looked at her and I could smell her arousal from reading I had a wry smile and told her to read that stuff in private and she turned bright red and I could've swore I saw steam from her head and she was going to faint. but she got up and ran to her room and couldn't look at me the rest of the day.

Blake and Fenrir also became close as he would sleep near her while she took a nap like he was protecting her, and I could understand why as she had her fears radiating off her when she came home. I guess she fears what Adam will do as he went off the deep end after hearing the retreat order and just attacked a settlement for that after bake found out she ran home as she knew he won't come anywhere near here as he is now wanted dead or alive.

me and Blake have become good friends as she consoled in me about her fears and what she did. she was scared at what would happen and what she should do and i told her to stand and fight as that will help more than just you it helps the people who need it. so, she started training harder and fiercer to the point she would pass out I had to stop her and tell her to slow down or else it's going to hurt others more than herself. she said who would care about a person who helped a monster, and i said " I would damn it and don't you ever say that again you were in a blind love where he was brainwashing you but you got away and your home so don't say that! you are a good person who is now trying to get back what she lost, and you will get there. your parents who love you no matter what are still here and i am going to be there for you as well so don't hurt yourself anymore please."

she was shocked and had tears in her eyes as she ran to hug me and just bawled her eyes out and hugged her back to comfort her and told her "you will never be alone as you think even if I'm not there with you by your side know my heart and soul will be with you." after she stopped crying she looked at me and said " thank you Doryu that means a lot." she continued to hug me and asked with a shy face, " would you do me a favor?" I was curious but said "sure anything" she then said to my shock " can you pet my head and still hug me?" I was happy and shocked so I just smiled and complied, and her ears were so soft she must take really good care of her hair.

a couple days after that incident I was taking a nap on the couch and apparently, she decided to lay on top of me I didn't really care so i just hugged her and slept later that day I saw kali looking at me and Blake with a smile and saw me awake and said," I want grandbabies but not yet Huhu." after she said that i had a bit of red on my face. but that wasn't the end of it as ghira walked out and saw me and Blake let's just say I respect him as he stood up to me after his indicts were saying to retreat.

overall, this past year and a half have been fun I guess but I need to get to atlas and deal with that mess and that's going to probably take 6 months then I'm going to go to dome Remy and help jaune. so here i am packing some things along with Mordred and Fenrir is being lazy. after we packed, we got ready to say goodbye ghira kali sienna and Blake were waiting. I walked up to them and said " well it's time for me to go, sienna don't give up on people yet as there are really good people out there I've met 3 so far and they are a family and the youngest is honestly one of the most pure beings you'll ever meet and watch out for Adam and "snakes" near you." she looked at me and nodded and said goodbye and left.

ghira and kali came up to me and kali said, " Doryu you helped more than you could ever know thank you and know that you have family here with me and ghira and will always be welcome along with Mordred and Fenrir." I nodded and turned to ghira and said " if there are ever any problems let me know and I'll see if it can be fixed remotely if not, I'll be here as soon as i can. thank you both for letting me stay with you and accepting us into your family if you need help as well let me know I might have an idea to help." they nodded and decided to talk with Mordred as I went to Blake.

as I was walking to her, she looked sad that I was going but I said, "Blake I know you're going to miss me and I'm going to miss you but kno--" I was cut off with her shutting her lips with mine, my eyes opened wide i was surprised that she did that but I didn't think and just kissed her back as we just were in our own little world. I start to feel a glare on my back and stopped kissing Blake and turned I saw ghira was glaring but I didn't expect to see Mordred with a jealous face as she must have noticed I was looking at her, she turned away.

after Blake caught her breath she said, " I know that you have things to do so i will be going to beacon as well, we will meet again there and i know that you want a "big family" and I'm fine with that. just as long i have room in your heart I'll be fine and having sisters sounds fun." to say i was shocked would be an understatement but nodded and said, " ok then I'll be happy with that, and you certainly surprised me there. see ya later Blake at beacon train hard but not too hard. she nodded and ran onside as I chuckled, and I turned to Mordred and Fenrir and said " let's go on to atlas and drag a bastard down to hell.
