"How did you create that teleportation portal?" xavier asked curiously after they came out of Gloria's residence.

"That's confidential. If anyone else knows how to make it, it could be misused. Just imagine if a kingdom sent its troops to another kingdom using a teleportation portal, wouldn't that be bad?" answer Daru.

"You have a point .., look for an inn so that no one sees you making it" Xavier suggested.

Daru nodded in agreement and went to an inn with Frey. Daru rented a room on the top floor and asked the inn employees to make sure no one was around.

Daru took out his Smartphone and started ordering ten sets of teleportation stones.

"Mas Daru, Ms. Frey," said Veux.

"Mr Veux," Frey replied politely.

"Thank God I've met" Veux said as he gave a package to Daru.

"Thanks to Veux as well," Daru replied as he signed the receipt.

"Then I go first. See you soon." Veux waved his goodbye hand before disappearing.

"Daru, why did Mr Veux call us mas and mbak? It was quite strange in this world," Frey asked Daru.

"Take it because he thinks of us as friends. Haha."

Daru opened his package to check if all the necessary stones were enough before rushing off to where Xavier was.

Xavier waits for Daru and Frey at the north gate of Carin City. He really wanted to see how the teleportation portal worked.

"Xavier!" greet Daru who just arrived at the North gate.

"Daru, did you make it?" ask Xavier.

"It has. I will plant it" Daru said as he walked closer to the gate. He then crouched down to plant the Teleportation Stone. He arranged it in such a way that the stones gave off light. Not to forget he also made a teleportation stone that could only be used to teleport to Sarren Hill and vice versa. Daru blacklisted the Moon City portal, so that no one could use the teleportation portal to move to Moon City.

"Xavier, stand on the rock and close your eyes" Daru said.

Xavier complies and suddenly moves to Sarren Hill followed by Daru and Frey.

....

Sarren Hill.

"Woah this is too impossible to believe!" xavier shouted after exiting the Sarren Hill teleportation portal.

Soon Frey and Daru also exit the teleportation portal. Daru instantly set up a portal on Sarren Hill in order to only be able to teleport someone to the teleportation portal they previously used. So it was impossible for the people from Moon City to teleport to Carin City or vice versa with the portal on Sarren Hill.

"Frey, come in the store. Xavier and I are going to finish some small business" Daru told Frey.

Frey gave a small nod and walked towards the store. Daru and Xavier return to Carin City to summon the Griffon. They could not summon the Griffon to Sarren Hill because of the magic artifact that Zoref planted on top of the outer wall. Daru this morning turned off the cannon mechanism for fear that if Xavier and his Griffon managed to escape the magic defense then it was certain that they would both be charred.

....

"Mmm, since the affair with the other Nobles Family is nothing interesting, let's speed up the time. All the higher-ups of the other four Noble Families were certain to sign the blood contract in the same way as the Gloria Family. Thank you" Daru said to you.

....

Afternoon in Sarren Hill.

Daru had managed to make all the higher-ups of the Five Nobles Families become his slaves, he had also planted teleportation portals in the cities he had just visited and ordered the Nobles Family to spread information about Sarren Hill. Daru had just arrived at Sarren Hill with Xavier.

"Thank you Xavier. With this the five Nobles Families will not be messing around anymore" Daru told Xavier.

"certain. This is also my apology. Then, when should I start teaching you magic?" ask Xavier.

"You can teach me magic when you have time. No need to rush. Oh, is the Book of Julius's Journey this book?" asked Daru while taking out the book he got from Julius Tomb.

Xavier was shocked in disbelief when he saw the book in Daru's hands. "This ..., how did you find it?"

"I found it in the same chest as Julius' gold plate, take it." Daru threw the book at Xavier.

"Either why my debt to you increases again .... Thank you Daru. I'm sure my Master would love to see you if he were alive."

"I met his ghost once when I took his treasure."

Xavier was once again surprised to hear what Daru said.

"Then what did he say? Is there a message for me??" tanya Xavier is excited.

"He told me not to be noisy when stealing his treasure," Daru replied with a flat expression.

"Haha! That was my teacher .... Tell me where the tomb is."

"Loner Cave, Arc Forest."

Xavier nodded and was about to go to the city earlier to summon the Griffon.

"Wait Xavier. Just warn you, after you leave here, I will activate the defense mechanism on the outer wall of Sarren Hill. If you want to come here, come by the teleportation portal, not by air" Daru said.

Xavier nodded and immediately went north towards the Arc forest.

Daru walked towards the south where the control room was located to activate the cannon mechanism.

"Hahh, lately I've been spending too much money. I need to save more on my expenses" Daru murmured with a sigh.

After he activated the cannon mechanism, he walked towards the shop to check the sales results today. On the way, he saw some new building foundations that were not far from his shop.

"Blue Star Restaurant and Bull's Horn Bar have already begun to plant its roots here. Haha, things are going well," murmured Daru.

He sped up his pace as he impatiently wanted to hear what was happening today in his shop.

"Boss!" Sapa Sylph who was standing behind the counter to serve the customers.

"Boss Frey was on the second floor with Shera to talk about the temporary earnings of the store for today" Sylph replied.

"Okay, I'll be there. Continue your work" said Daru as he left Sylph for the second floor.

Daru arrived at the front door of the room on the second floor. He opened it and saw Frey was talking to Sylph and there was some paper in front of the two of them.

"Yes!" greet Daru.

"Daru," Frey replied with a smile.

"Boss!" Shera stood up in the upright manner of a soldier.

"Why are you obsessed with the army, Shera?" ask Daru.

"Ready! Because soldiers are cool, Boss!" shera replied firmly.

"Hahh ..., whatever. Frey, how's your body doing?" ask Daru to Frey.

"I'm doing fine. Thank you for saving me. And ma-"

"Don't apologize. I heard too much of that from you" Daru said cutting Frey's words.

Frey smiled slightly and patted the sofa on which she was sitting. Cueing Daru to sit next to him.

Daru walked up to Frey and sat down next to him and said "Shera, tell me the progress of the store for today."

"Ehm, the temporary income for today is 23,000 gold coins, less than yesterday. I predict earnings will continue to decline over the next week and at that time our daily income will be stable at five thousand gold coins. But it will decline again if the customer's saturation point is at its peak."

"Most customers buy disposable items, such as cigarettes, instant noodles, ice cream, and cold drinks. Sales for other items such as soap, and others are currently on the decline."

"Oh, Blue Star Restaurant and Bull's Horn Bar have already started building its branch on Sarren hill. The trading company has not yet arrived." Shera ended her explanation.

"For the matter of daily income, I've already installed teleportation portals in the five major cities of Resia. I'm sure there will be a customer explosion tomorrow. That would buy time for a decline in earnings, yes even if five thousand gold coins per day is not too small a number. Frey and I will help with the sale tomorrow. By the way, what about the state of the customers here? Is something going on?" ask Daru.

"A lot of people are fighting because of the long queue, boss. The people in the back queue often troublemaking with the person in front of him. Although the first floor is quite spacious, but there is only one counter, so the long queue does not shorten quickly."

"I'll put two other counter desks starting tomorrow, and I'll increase the number of employees to become security guards."

"Good, Boss!" said Shera.

"Shera, I'm sorry if my question is too painful. Do you know some of the slaves Ronald sold?" ask Daru.

"It's okay, Boss. Yes I know some. Does the Boss want to buy slaves?"

"Yes, I want to buy two female slaves and three male slaves who have the smallest mana circle. I want you to go over there, pick out the slaves I need and tell Ronald to bring them here tonight when two trading companies come."

"Bos ..., ap-do I get to choose my friend who's there?" shera asked expectantly.

"Whatever, it's important if your friend is a guy, his mana circle is under 20. If it's a woman, it's up to you."

"Thank you boss!" shera said with a deep bow.

"Yes yes .... Oh, bring silver and bronze money too. Buy gold jewelry from Star-que."

"Good! I'm leaving now."

Daru gave the silver and bronze coins equal in number to Shera's account of the silver and bronze coins the shop received. After that, Shera rushed off to Moon City to carry out her duties.

"Then what is my job?" ask Frey.

"Didn't you want to go to your parents' house early this morning?"

"Shera told you?"

"Yes ..., next time you want to go, at least let me know."

"definitely. Thank you Daru," said Frey, holding Daru's hand and smiling sweetly.

"Oh, you haven't explained what you did last night" Frey added.

"I awakened to which circle last night," Daru replied lightly.

Frey was shocked and immediately flowed the mana into Daru's hands.

"How can you raise him?!" Shouted Frey.

"Haha. I'm great, right? You didn't choose a man wrong" Daru replied proudly.

"How is it? It was impossible to add to a circle of mana, let alone raise it to fifty circles!."

"I don't want to tell you, but I can't say it." Daru said curiously.

"Hahh .., I'm afraid I won't be surprised anymore by what you did with the Nobles Family" Frey said with a sigh.

"Oh, I made the higher-ups of those families my slaves."

Frey was more surprised than ever. Frey looked at Daru with an expression of disbelief.

"They want to sign a blood contract? How's it?"

"Haha. A little negotiation and they agreed. Trust me, Frey, I'm a great guy."

"Hahh .., Daru, you're too much of a surprise. I feel good to be next to you" Frey said as she leaned against Daru's shoulder.

"Keep, I feel that way too. Go see your parents immediately. I want you here when the two trading companies have arrived. Be careful and stay alert" Daru said.

"Well, I'm leaving" said Frey, peeking at Daru and heading towards Moon City.
