Chapter 159 Fried Chicken
Silvia looked towards the crystal and the slime that seemed to have a great connection with each one and wandered off, leaving the rest of those around them wondering about her actions.
"Well, I am glad you're here at least, teacher. Should we head inside? I think I am ready for a good lunch," Logan asked the others, as he was quite hungry after having his blood drained.
"Sure, I would appreciate the invitation. As for Silvia…" Ms. Claire began looking towards the girl who might get lost without anyone guiding her.
"Oh, if it's her, I don't mind staying behind," said Marie, trying to get out of her teacher's sight.
"You might escape now… but we will talk later, Marie," Ms. Claire said in a stern tone before heading with the rest towards the mansion.
Logan saw that Marie looked a bit scared but tried guiding his teacher inside his home.
"So, how are things here, Logan? I don't think you were given such a great town, so it must mean you built it up," Ms. Claire began to wonder as she saw the large mansion with tasteful decor.
"Well, yeah. When we arrived, there were less than 40 people here. Now it's a great bustling town." Logan smiled, feeling happy his efforts were easy to see by someone he knew.@@novelbin@@
Soon they entered the dining room and sat down while a light lunch was brought.
"So, how are the others doing? I am sorry I had to leave like that, Ms. Claire," Lisa asked while waiting for food to be served.
"The last news I got was that they successfully repelled the demon attack. I left a day before they set out to sea. As for the demons, they were dealt with easily, no problems there. I guess most of the students will continue through the labyrinth to finish leveling, or others will finish the prerequisites for their quests," Ms. Claire said as she looked at the portion of food she was served and loved the smell that reminded her of fried chicken from Earth.
"First time I saw this dish in this world, at least seasoned like this…" She hastily bit into the chicken with fervor.
"Well, we have Marie to thank for that. She seemed to be someone who loved watching movies, TV shows, and games, and within her memories, she had a few recipes she shared with the cooks in my town. If you want, you can try visiting the cinema or various shops later. You could say that Marie influenced a great part of this town with her magic," Logan informed while biting into his own piece of crispy chicken.
"I will, and it's good to see she found something to do in this world. I had her with me for a good part since she just didn't fit in, and having a power that did not go well in battle… well, you can guess how the others viewed her as someone who started like her… weak to say it plainly." Ms. Claire paused for a second before taking another bite of the meat, feeling a little sad that only a bone remained on her plate.
"She did suffer at the start. I wonder why she came here, though. I think it must have been around the time we should have arrived in the labyrinth, meaning she probably escaped our group and had someone bring her here after separating from Logan." Lisa added.
"Ruben is also here. He's a local smith. We are still trying to find where his master is. We believe the demons know. We will at least try to capture one of them in the coming battle to know what happened," Logan explained while cleaning his greasy hands with his napkin.
"Ruben? I did hear about his master being looked for in the labyrinth city. I hope they find him…" Ms. Claire said while wiping her mouth.
"So, are you doing, Alma? You seem to have changed." Ms. Claire turned the conversation towards Alma, who now looked stronger, her hair was blond with pink, and her face was lightly coated with makeup.
"Great, I had help from Marie to create a magic tool that would alter my appearance on stage. As far as my class change went, it was easy. I did not know I would get such a big audience. Marie suggested I do it in the middle of town instead of a theater, so I fulfilled the need for having a large audience and having my song change the heart of at least two hundred people at once.
It did drain my mana, so I am thankful for your town and the ability to have a crystal nearby to regain my mana reserve." Alma went over the way she finished her quest in detail.
Having so much to talk about, the group took an hour to get everyone up to speed on the other heroes and the position Logan's town was in.
He explained his need to separate his town and create his own small kingdom, and the fact he had tamed the others to help raise their power. Read latest stories on My Virtual Library Empire
By now, Lisa knew Alma had gotten her power from Logan, and while she still doubted why her best friend did not tell her before, she accepted that it was necessary.
"Well then, I will be off for the rest of the day. I need to coordinate my monsters and have them work with the soldiers. How about it, Ms. Claire? I think your ability will help them and guide them in the coming battle. I want there to be a greater synergy between both. Maybe then they will have a better chance at surviving," Logan asked, hoping that his teacher's class, Orator, would help the monsters gain more trust from the soldiers.
"Sure, I don't mind. Isn't that why I came?" Ms. Claire followed.
When they arrived at the field nearby, Logan called up Scorch, Silis, and Riptide, his main force. Regal would be a ninja in the war, and as for Voltar, he was solo. He had yet to find others of his species, as the egg given to Logan was brought by Ferra; only she would know where more of his kind were found.
