A month went by, and Silva had fulfilled his part of the deal to Ezra. He had provided the capital with expensive amenities like teleportation platforms that anyone could use at a very affordable price.
The money collected was all to maintain the teleporters, and no one actually ate from the money. He also gave the capital of Aragon a new way for them to stay safe.
Recording crystals that were so small they could be placed on any part of the body. They could record sound and a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree view around the person, even seeing through the user's clothes.
This and more were the things Silva made possible and gave all credit to Ezra, and because of this, Ezra was returned to the capital as a hero.
Silva had healed him up better than he was before and given him quite a few things that could help him out.
But Ezra was far from being a free man because he signed his soul away before he left. Silva would never allow someone to simply walk away from him like that.
So he used a new binding contract that was far more vile and evil than the ones he had used before. Ezra had no choice, so he signed and allowed Silva to be his master.
Aside from the gifts he gave in Aragon, Silva had completely changed the capital in just one month.
After dumping immense resources and labor into it, the new great wall for the capital was made. It stood grandly and domineering.
The wall had two gates, but only one was opened for use.
After they concluded the wall, the next thing he began was the building of houses. Though they possessed many talented individuals and a lot of manpower,
they still couldn't get it done by the current date. That being said, they had done about eighty percent, and the people who were stranded in tents soon started moving in, but only after signing the agreement that stated they would start working and slowly pay off.
Silva used every bit of manpower he could find in the whole capital, from Orcs to Wyverns, fairies, and spirits. Everything that could lift a fork was put to work, and the pace was outstanding.
"Hm, I don't think so. Not everyone will act like Jade," Silva said.
"Oh, they will, master. They definitely will. Fay, Dawn, Lia, Amber, Roxy, even Lily. The list goes on. You better be wary," Drake said.
"Lily? Nah, Lily is the only one that I know for sure doesn't have that type of relationship with me," Silva said as he started walking with Drake.
"Ah, naive, I see. Lily is the one you should be wary of more. Even the crazy Amber comes nowhere close to Lily.
Do you know the fate of the people that tried to harm you and were left in Lily's hands? Their horror would make a devil shiver in fear.
She gets enraged when it comes to you, and she would go the extra mile or two to ensure that all your enemies eat the dust of the earth," Drake said.
"Huh? Then why am I only hearing about this now?" Silva asked.
"Because she never wanted it to distract your work, so she made sure I didn't talk. But I feel today is the best day for you to know.
But you can't fall into thought now. There is a lot for you to do on your birthday.
The first on your agenda is finally to rid the world of the prince and your brother. Ever since we took over the kingdom, we made everyone believe that they had already been killed.
But they're there, and you asked me to wait till now. But now, we must remove them, there is the risk of Sage mistakenly finding out that they have been alive.
To her, Oliver is dead, and it's good to stay that way," Drake said.
"All right then, take me to see my brother and the prince," Silva said, and Drake led the way.
