Chapter 42 - Preparation

"Hmm...well...that's quite a story, you and Mungo are bonding quite well and fast huh?" After hearing Magma's explanation of what was happening, I could only look in amazement and a little bit of amus.e.m.e.nt. I mean is this how it is in anime where people were at each other's throats, and the next moment they are sworn, brothers? So I couldn't help but tease him a bit.

"Ahem, yes we are, and I'm quite happy with that as well, hopefully, our relationship will keep on growing." I hope Magma is talking about a brotherly relationship still because that was a lot of passion in voice right there, if not...well...good luck Mungo... you're going to need it.

"*Ahem*, anyways. So what about them then, where did they come from?" I looked over to the mangled corpses of the wolves.

"Oh, them, well they tried to attack us when we were having our...breakfast...yeah, that's the word, saying we stole their prey and we will become their next meals. And well since Mungo was pretty hungry already and upset because he couldn't land another hit on me, we trained a little before eating, he went ballistic on them to vent...and you see the results of that." Yeah...well as they say...we all have a dark side, those wolves were just unlucky to see Mungo's side today and survive.

"Hmm...well nothing we can do about that, I would always want our members to try and take a peaceful approach first, but since they came with hostile intents, they asked for it." I sighed, I never really liked the loss of life, but only if it is unnecessary, wrong, or things of that nature, as I have killed before and I also killed that Green-Wolf thingy when I first got here, so I won't be a hypocrite and scold Mungo our do something stupid like that when I did the same thing.

"Oh well, they should have just walked away, but what can you do. Anyways, enough about them let's discuss some stuff about Mungo." I looked away from the corpses and turned my head to Magma with a playful and mischievous grin on my face.

"O-Oh, and what would that be?" Magma looked at me nervously.

"His training and preparation..." My grin only widened, as I lay my plans forth, right onto Magma, as he grew more and more concerned.

*A few minutes later*

"You're insane." Magma said with a blank look on his face. I chuckled at his joke.

"I would really think that was true but with how strong you are...well I believe what you say." Magma paused and looked at the devastation that my strength caused. I also looked back at what I caused.

With but a wave of my hand (paw), like how someone would shoo away someone or something, I cause a good few miles of the forest in the direction away from any places of interest or importance that I know of, and with Magma's help I know I didn't damage anything too important, well...a good representation would be as if I did an All-Mighty Push in a singular direction. And that was only but a small, small, small fraction of my strength...about, heh, somewhere between 0-1% of my true power. (AN: UI Shaggy would be somewhat amused.)

I knew full power would be way too much, so I knew it would be better to overestimate my strength than to underestimate it...and I still caused far more damage than I wanted to...well at least I got my point across.

"So yeah...I will leave my brother in your truthful hands Ryoku...please make sure he is ready before...that." Magma bowed his head to me to show he has complete and utter trust in me.

"Of course. I will make sure you have not put your trust blindly onto me. When I'm done with him here even you might not last a second against him." I flashed a toothy grin at him for the jab I just took at him.

"Hahahaha. I will look forward to that then...well, in that case, I will be heading back home, I will tell the council about your plans and rest until you guys are back, until then be safe." After his hearty laugh, he grew serious again and then turned around and took off.

"Alright, you be safe yourself you hear me!" I yelled in the direction he took off in.

"Yes Lord Ryoku!"

"Alright, now time to set my plans into motion."

'Dear, can you see if there is something like the Hyperbolic Time Chamber I can purchase in the store?'

[There is no need for that Yahweh, you have your Realm/Inventory function, remember. (AN: In Chp: 10 Lottery)]

'Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that, thanks for the reminder, Dear. However, how is that going to replace the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?'

[No problem at all Yahweh. Now for your question, the Realm is like a mini-world that you and only you own. In that world, you are basically God. You can make anything you want in there rather through your own powers or using your points, you can change that world as much as you want.] After hearing her explanation, it was like a lightbulb turned on inside my head.

'Oooooh, so like one of those city-building simulators or something like that.'

[...Exactly...yeah like that. Only far more...immersive, yeah that's the word, and better.] That little pause she had at the start was a bit weird, but I didn't pay too much attention to it as I'm more focused on what to do with the Realm.

'Alright then. So how do I move to the Realm then?' I wanted to get started with this as soon as possible, I don't want to waste any more time.

[All you need to do is say the Realm's name, which is just Realm for now, and then open, so, [Realm: Open], and you will appear in your Realm.]

'Okay [Realm: Open].' After saying that world looked like it was spinning and growing at the same time, but after a split second everything went dark.
