Chapter 9

Caepron had walked for roughly 20 minutes and he was now in an open plain, with a giant red typed wood forest behind them, the ocean on his left, mountains straight ahead, and open plains as far as he could see to the right. He decided on this spot as it was within a reasonable distance of everything. "System, village creation stone." Caepron stuck out his right hand and a white light shined for a few seconds. Afterwords a Platinum-colored block with small sculptures of houses on them appeared in his hand, he looked at the stats of it.

Item: Village Creation Stone (Divine)

Description: A Village Creation stone that will create a village wherever the owner so chooses.

Caepron's mind was blown away that his village creation stone was so strong, but considering that he was Adrollis's inheriter, he would more than likely get some overpowered and strong stuff. "Do you want to use "Village Creation stone?" [Yes],[No]". "Yes". The stone glowed in bright light and disappeared from his hand. All around him, the ground started shaking and rumbling, and slowly, five buildings slowly came out of the ground.

Four buildings slowly started forming in near proximity and then a single building by itself formed a little bit away from the others. The first building had an open area, with anvils and wooden benches with tools hanging above them, it had a wooden sign hanging above the entrance with the word "Blacksmith" on it. Next was a small homely looking building with a small enclosed garden behind it with a front window that showed bottles and plants inside, it had a sign that said "Apothocary" on it. Next was a building with a large open yard with several large barrels with open tops in it. It had a sign that said "Tailor" on it. The next building that came out of the ground had a wooden wall surrounding it, with an enclosed courtyard, a large, long-running building in it, and an open field that was beaten down dirt behind it. It didn't have a sign but from guesswork, you could tell that it was some sort of barracks. The final building was a little bit bigger than the other buildings, it had two stories, and looked more put together and orderly than the rest. It had a sign in the front saying "Townhall" on it. All the buildings were made of wood and thatch at the moment. Making Caepron think that it needed to be upgraded before it would be built out of more sturdy materials.

Caepron walks towards the Town Hall and stands on the front porch to look at the rest of the buildings in front of him. He pulls out all the talismans that he had gotten from the bag and crushed them in his hand. While he did that, three more figures were forming out of the lights in front of him. When the light disappeared, six people were standing in front of Caepron. Four men and two women, Caerpon looked at them and then said, "Rise, please, no needs to bow yourselves before me." The six people were slightly shocked and slowly stood up. The first woman was a very homely, lovely girl, she had a padded apron on and had some sowing needles in one of her front pockets. She had a small round face, with shoulder-length brown hair hidden under a bandana that she wore on her head to cover it from the heat most likely. She had small lips and hazel-colored eyes. Quite the beauty even compared to models and such. Caepron was stunned slightly but quickly got himself back together. Next was another woman, she was older with a mature look, she had a beauty mark on her right cheek, she seemed to be around 30. She had blonde hair tied back in a bun, showing off her tan and hourglass figure. She was wearing a robe with pockets on the front. With a few herbs and such sticking out here and there. Next was a big-chested man, he was roughly 6' 8" with a brown sharply kept beard, brown short military cut hair, sharp eyes set in a large face that had been weathered by the smithy, giant bulging muscles, and a blacksmith's leather belt on with a few tools hanging from his belt. Next was a man wearing a long white robe with an aqua strip down the middle, with a small maroon cloth around his waist to hold a few small pouches, and a well taken care of white goatee on his chin. Next to him was a man who was odd to the extreme, he wore a white cap like a sailor, a white lab coat with marks all over it and color stains, a pair of baggy tan cloth pants, and wooden sandals. He had unkempt hair up top, a clean-shaven face, sharp brown eyes, and a sharp nose that complimented his face. The last person was a young man, possibly no older than Caepron himself, he was standing in an at-ease pose, his hair cut short and clean, clean-shaven face, very well built, with a tunic with a leather belt at his waist, dark baggy pants for ease of movements, and a pair of what looked like leather moccasins.

Caepron looked at each of them before speaking. "As of today, you are the first citizens and members of the Anderson Kingdom. Thank you all for being here for this." All the people got straight back down on their knees, while the old man with a goatee spoke. "Your majesty, you should not thank us, or give us equal footing with you, we are your servants and will do anything for you." Caepron gave them an eyebrow raise at this, did he look like he cared for such nonsense and stupidity. He shook his head and laughed, walking to each of them and helping them up. "I don't know what ideas you all have in your heads, but I am no more than you, a simple human being who wants to protect what is his and what he loves. You are my people and I care for my people, so never, ever bow down like that to me again. You are all my people, not beings that live to serve me, if I were to allow that, I would start changing into a man that I couldn't stand and would rather be put to death than become a snot-nosed child who is high on power." The six people were shocked to hear what Caepron was saying, so much so that they didn't know what to do. The young man with a military air had a sharp gleam in his eyes and a smirk on his face. He took a step forward, turned to Caepron, and saluted. "As your head general, I swear this day that even into the jaws of death or the gates of hell I will follow you to the end!" Caepron knew this type of person, they were the best to make friends with as they would ride or die with you to the end. He stuck out his arm instead, "I promise that if we find the jaws of death or the gates of hell, well beat them down till they can't get back up!" The young man was smiling with a crazy man's smile and took Caeprons arm in an old fashion arm shake. The rest of the people started smiling with hope in their eyes that they had possibly the best master to serve.

Caepron then looked at all of them, "I would like to see your stats so that we may get started on this grand adventure." Everyone nodded and lined up. The young girl was up first.

Race: Human (1/100,000 Ancient Being Bloodline)

Age: 19 (100)

Cultivation: 0-0

Cultivation Technique: The Ancient Matra

Skills: Threading Arts, Eyes of The Sower

She already had two skills, which Caepron assumed were related to her occupation. She also had a par of the Ancient Being bloodline, which Caepron wasn't so sure as to why but he was gonna try to figure it out. She also had the Ancient Matra cultivation technique, to explain cultivation techniques, every village starts with one, some better than others based on who you are, if you have a bloodline, or if a being intervenes and gives you one, otherwise you get in a drawing for basic techniques, this allows you to cultivate and grow. However, Adrollis gave Caepron the Ancient Matra, the technique that he had developed for his people that he thought he would lead. However, because he was betrayed, he didn't get that chance, so he gave it to Caepron to give to his people instead since they were technically Adrollis's second-generation nation.

Hey Guys! If you guys are enjoying this, have any ideas for future plots, or spot spelling errors or things that don't make sense and I can change them, let me know. I'd also appreciate gifts and power stones as they will let my book get on the charts and as a college student, I can only put so much time into each thing I do. So if this starts making money for me I can take more time from other things to work on this. I appreciate all who have read so far and hope you guys are enjoying this far in.
