Shadowslash already realised who the old man is since he told Mitz he would be in the library he should have forbid anyone from going inside during his stay.
Then the only person who dared to come inside is the person he asks for.
A person who was well versed in building a fortress.
Shadowslash directly asks for the man to teach him how to build a fortress.
Since it was a direct request from him the man dared not to be negligent.
While Shadowslash was listening to the lectures his clone quickly arrives in front of Reias study room but when it got insideitz wasn't there.
Since nobody is inside the clone just put the letter on top of the desk and disappears.
Shadowslash on the other hand spent the remainder of the day listening to the lectures about building a fortress.
This kept on repeating as he listened to different views of workers also Mitz quickly purchased the books that he wanted.
A month later Shadowslash left the mansion full of knowledge on constructing buildings also because he waited for a month Mitz manage to obtain all the materials for building a giant fortress.
The first place he go was Banjo's personal realm when he got to where he was Shadowslash was disappointed to find he was still sleeping but the fluctuations of Spatial Energy around him became stronger.
Shadowslash then left he decided to check on Banjo's progress or condition of he had time.
When he arrived in the center of the Howling Ridge where the Scarlet and the demonic dragon door is he felt the surrounding atmosphere quite different.
He then saw Scarlet sleeping but she was much bigger than before he also realized that her aura has also gotten stronger.
It seems that after continuously eating meat Scarlet finally recovered from her injury and more.
Now she could use all of her abilities and traits.
As if sensing his aura Scarlet opens her eyes and looks at him.
Roar! When she saw it was Shadowslash she let's out an happy roar as she pounced at him.
Shadowslash bitterly smiled as he saw Scarlet on top of him it seems that she really misses him.
After continuously patting her she finally got off of him Shadowslash couldn't help but shake his head thinking that a monster of her age and strength was actually acting like a spoiled cat.
With a wave of his hand ten orc corpses appeared in front of her.
She was confused as why there are only ten of them as her appetite is extremely great and Shadowslash also knew that.
Suddenly her eyes started glowing as she realized what kind of corpses in front of her is they were Crimson Gold Rank corpses.
They are much beneficial than Gold Rank corpses and with her injury recovered she was now using the energy from the meat she have eaten to recover her peak.
She immediately started munching as an expression of happiness could be seen on her face.
While Scarlet was relishing her food Shadowslash was looking around picturing what his fortress would look like.
After a while an image finally appeared on his mind after he decided on a particular fortress he summoned his nine clones and started working.
With his incredible fast speed and great strength together with his great mind his work is a hundred times more faster than any expert worker that work in any kingdom in the Hundred Forest Continent.
Days passed then they turned into weeks sounds kept coming out of the Howling Ridge this was the result of Shadowslash destroying some walls in the ridge to build his fortress.
2 months passed and Shadowslash who was working in his fortress suddenly stops and looks towards a certain direction.
After working for an entire two month together with his clones and sometimes the 10 mid-class undeads or more accurately the newly evolved 10 high-class undeads would help him.
With his speed he could shift in any spot in just a matter of seconds actually he could finish building his giant fortress in just a month but he decided to make it grander so he continue improving the structure and design.
Inside the fortress there was a giant dome it repel the fierce qi that was floating around there natural energy was thriving and plants were growing.
Back in the present Shadowslash quickly halted his work and dashed towards that certain direction.
The direction he is going is where Banjo's personal realm is located and the feeling he got is that Banjo have awakened.
Arriving at the space hole he immediately felt the spatial energy going crazy.
'This is!!!' Shadowslash was in shock he knew what is happening in the secret realm.
It was undergoing an evolution he would have never thought that it hasn't even been a year but Banjo managed to upgrade his realm.
Since it was still in the process in evolving then he shouldn't go inside if not he might make the entire realm unstable.
But at least that meant Banjo's understanding of spatial rule have improved that meant the plan to fuse the Hidden Camp and the Elemental Sanctuary back on Dragon Kingdom would be a lot smoother.
Since he couldn't disturb him yet Shadowslash returns back to his work the fortress was already 88% finishes.
Inside the fortress Scarlet was sleeping on top of a new type of grass.
The grass was something Shadowslash planted around his fortress this is one of the most durable grass in the continent.
They might have no value but their ability to adapt and survive in any given location was top notch.
With Shadowslash help and Hentai's modifications they managed to evolve and because they have the characteristics of absorbing fierce qi they were named Fierce Beast Grass.
Scarlet loves on sleeping on top of them even though the Fierce Beast Grass were incrediblely sharp after their evolution they would become soft as long as it was a Fierce Beast that stand atop of them.
The reason for this is because they would absorb the excess fierce qi being emitted by the said Fierce Beast.
Shadowslash also planted numerous plants that high survival rate and adaptability rate he wanted to see if they could evolve into plants that would be beneficial to a Fierce Beast.
So far in the hundred plants only 5 manage to survive even with Shadowslash and Hentai's help.
The five plant was the Fierce Beast Grass, Beast Fruit Tree, Fierce Beast Rose, Bloody Fierce Berry and Scarlet Blood Tree.
The first is the Fierce Beast Grass which was already explained.
The second was a mutated Everfrost Tree which could survive even in the coldest climate it is like a cockroach hard to kill.
It's wood and branches are as hard as steel its leaves sucks up all the nutrients in the soil while suck up the energy in the air leaving nothing to other plants.
Since the amount of fierce qi in the Howling Ridge is abundant to the point it infected the ground the Beast Fruit Tree has plenty to go around.
After Hentai modified it and together with the fierce qi it evolved into a magic plant with a grade of Silver.
It would bore a fruit everyday the fruit is extremely beneficial for Fierce Beast as it is the accumulation of pure fierce qi.
But there could only one fruit that has seed on it and it's former form the Everfrost Tree would only bore it after one hundred years when it will die after expending all of it's energy in creating the seed.
Shadowslash don't know if this would also happen for the Beast Fruit Tree but according to Hentai it was highly unlikely as the Howling Ridge has a large amount of fierce qi so creating it's seed would be much smoother.
The third plant is the undying rose it had this name not because it had the characteristics of an undead but because of it's ability to survive.
As long as it had a tiny amount of energy to absorb it will live it could even suck up another plant's nutrient just to ensure it's own survival.
But because of this one trick trait it was extremely hard to modify there were at least a dozen of them before now there are only one left.
The fourth is the Bloody Fierce Berry it came from the most common and also the most popular plant that Shadowslash and his group always carry with them.
The Bloody Berry yes the Bloody Fierce Berry is another evolution of it this time it doesn't help in purifying bloodline but it would speed up the improvement if tiers of a Fierce Beast.
This was quite tempting for Fierce Beast what's more the taste of the Bloody Fierce Berry taste like blood so it would be quite popular.
Most of the Fierce Beast were carnivores and there are only a couple of omnivores in the race but all of them prefer to eat meat and drink blood.
