I arrived in my room at the inn and immediately started making preparations. I had a feeling that things were going to get chaotic very soon, but I was more than ready to get things going.
One thing that was strange was the fact that Olivia wasn't up here yet. The moon had been high in the sky when I had been outside last, so I assumed that she was going to be here in the room already sleeping, but I could still hear plenty of noise coming from downstairs. I could also feel that Olivia was still down there, so I decided that I would leave her alone while I went out and made a few changes to the defenses of the town.
I gestured for a portal to a place on the outside edge of town where I would be out of sight from the tower. I could see that there were four people up there now, but as it stood, they could only see so much of the far south side of town where I had appeared. I would have to add another tower or three, but getting a wall up in place was my first order, and I would be lying if I said that I wasn't excited about this.
While I had been here, most of my magic and spell-casting abilities were much greater than even the goddesses, but I was still forced to follow mortal laws and limitations. Now that I had my Astral Energy back, there was no need to hold back or pay any costs for casting.
I reached down and burned away a patch of snow and grass until I had bare ground, and then I looked up into the trees with my Mana Runes until I found a bird. I tamed the beast with a spell and then asked it to give me a view of what the entire town looked like from above. The small robin took off, and after only a short moment, I was relayed an image of the town from above, and I closed my eyes.
Now I know the area around me and an almost exact measurement of the town using my distance to the closest building as a reference. I created a mental image in my mind of what I wanted the walls to look like, and then I opened my eyes, and with a thought, the ground trembled as stone blocks rose up out of the ground.
I continued to build the walls until they were about thirty feet high all around the town, with a single tower on each corner that was fifty feet tall. Each tower had three levels inside of it that would hold archers who could attack anyone trying to scale or destroy the wall from outside. The gateways into each section were double-layered with portcullises that could be raised and lowered as needed for entry and exit.

After finishing up with the defenses, I started working on some other things, such as a ballista on either side of each gate which would make short work of anything foolish enough to try and break through them. When I was finished with everything that I wanted, for now, I was about to hop back in, but that was when the screaming started.
"Where did this wall come from?"
"Are we trapped in here?"
"Who did this?"
I just smiled as I turned, hopped over, and walked back into the town as people started to panic, but then I saw Olivia walking towards me with a confused expression on her face. "What is going on here? What did you do?" she asked as she gestured toward the wall, and I just shrugged my shoulders.
Before I said anything, I pulled Oliva in her Leafa disguise into an alley, and then I placed a barrier to hide us. The women of the town were running around like chickens with their heads cut off, but I needed to talk to Olivia before I dealt with all of them.
"I just decided that it was time to put up some defenses," I said in a nonchalant voice, but Olivia just stared at me in disbelief.

"You built this entire thing in one night!?" she asked, and I just nodded my head.
"I did not just take all night to do this. This was done just now after I took out five cultists, a horde of monsters from the Underworld, and captured two demons. I then tortured them and found out where the captives were and where Joselyn was hiding," I said as I walked up to her and dismissed her disguise. "I think it was pretty productive so far, but we are not going to be needing disguises anymore.
Oliva looked up at me with a stunned expression, but I could smell booze coming off her almost in waves, and her pale complexion was getting pretty red. "H-how did you find out where they are?" she asked in a shocked voice, and I just smirked at her.
"I tortured the information out of them and then had my way with them," I said with a shrug, but Olivia's eyes just widened in shock.
"Y-you 'd them?!" she cried out, and I just shook my head.
"It was not ; they begged for me to have my way with them by the time I was done. They both orgasmed multiple times before they finally talked, so do not act like it was anything other than what they wanted. They were demons that had been eating people, and they seemed to be paving the way for some new Black King. I don't know who that might be because I killed the old Black King, Baal, when I was living one of my lives in the Underworld." I said in a cold voice, and Olivia just stared at me in disbelief.
"You're serious? You actually killed Baal?" she asked, and I just nodded my head. "H-how?" she asked, and I just shrugged my shoulders.
