Chapter 2944 Future Basis (Part 2)

"Stop being so paranoid." Lith said in his best Solus impression. "Not every act of kindness hides a hidden agenda. Good people do exist."

Solus laughed hard as the earlier sour mood became a small cloud on the horizon.

They bought everything both the Verhen House and Mansion would need for months, enough to fill the pantries to the brim.

"I get the sugar, the flour, and the spices." The merchant said in confusion as he handed them the goods on the list. "But how can the owner of the biggest farm in Lustria County need to buy milk?"

Solus blushed hard. Everyone in the family loved ice cream but her enthusiasm for it was unparalleled, often depleting the share of the milk that Raaz kept for the family's needs.

"It's-" Lith pointed at her.

"Complicated." Solus cut him short, slapping his hand away. "We have lots of unexpected guests and some of them eat a lot."

"I see." The merchant nodded, picturing in his mind a mighty Phoenix as the cause of the milk shortage instead of a gluttonous, petite Forgemaster taking one night snack too many. "Thanks for bringing your business here, Magus Verhen.

"And thank you both for the Tablets. They save us a lot of time."

Most of the clients of the rush hours now submitted their orders from their houses first thing in the morning, giving the clerks the time to prepare everything whenever the work was slow. On pick up, the customers had only to check the goods and pay.

Once Lith and Solus got back home, they walked straight into the Warp Gate inside the barn, reaching the Mansion where everyone was waiting for them. With one thought, Solus set the tower in the keep.

The vigorous flow of world energy from the mana geyser filled them both with power and accelerated the mending process of her life force and mana core.

'I wonder what changes the tower and I will undergo when I finally reach the deep violet.' She pondered through their mind link.

'I'm more curious about what would happen if we got our hands on the Ears of Menadion, instead.' Lith replied. 'I believe that with each piece of the set we find, the tower recovers a part of the missing schematics of its power core.

'If I'm right, even though our version of the pieces of the Set of Menadion is inferior to the originals until the repairs are completed, the schematics of each artifact help the tower to find the best way to rearrange its floors and speed up its restoration process.'

'It's a very interesting theory.' Solus nodded telepathically. 'Too bad that we have no way to put it to the test nor any idea where the Ears are.'

Somewhere on the Garlen continent, Fringe of the World Tree.

'How is it possible that despite having access to every piece of information collected by plant forms and with hundreds of Chroniclers I still have no idea where the Ears of Menadion are?' The young Yggdrasil was angry and had no qualms about letting his servants know.

Their voice thundered in the Chroniclers' minds, bringing them to their knees while holding their long ears in the attempt to muffle the noise.
