Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 210: Chapter 210 - The arrival at Marahuyo

Within a span of 15 minutes, 90 mystiques, a mix of elves and heralds, appeared in the central plaza of Marahuyo shocking everybody currently living in the sanctuary. Makisig has already told everyone about the mass migration that is bound to happen by sunset but nothing prepared them for the sheer number of immigrants that arrived.

As the first four batches of 20 arrived, everything remained a stand still with none of them moving from the place they appeared after teleportation. It may be fear of the unknown or simply because they were technically surrounded by giants that are known to hate their race so time seemed to stop as everybody was stunned.

As the last batch appeared which included me, the tension seemed to have finally disappeared in an instant. I simply walked out of the crowd and approached Makisig to give him a kiss on the lips, a hug and a rub on his stomach that already shows a tiny bump beneath his well-formed abdominal muscles. I even kneeled down and kissed the area of his womb and smiled at him which made my cute giant lover blush hard.

After the brief public display of affection, I asked the elves and heralds to introduce themselves one by one and to tell a bit about themselves or the professions they could do which they all did obediently. Yoffir went last and as he walked past the crowd towards the front, he kept his knowing eyes on me as I also stared back a him. I already knew who he really was and what he was about to say based on the previous reports given to me by Void.

He wasn’t just a simple ”An’kin”. He was the leader of an underground group of elves and heralds that was trying to sabotage the evil plans of the elders discreetly. He wasn’t barely 400 years old. He was way older than that and was already alive during the war that killed my people. He wasn’t cursed to die though since he did not fight that war and instead hid away with his followers. He was so deeply hidden that even when his other members were killed off and hunted down by the elders, he wasn’t caught.

What his group did was like an indirect assist to Eieneos. It was much like how Sklavreyt works for Eieneos in the shadows. They are technically pro-Eieneos and Anti-Freyheimr so to speak.

As Yoffir stopped walking, he started introducing himself, his age and his profession. He was a teacher alright but he did not stop there. Due to the effects of the slavery mark, he readily told everybody that he was trained in espionage, assassination and also a leader of a rebellious group back in Freyheimr.

He smirked after providing the information and then asked if I can speak with him and the leaders of the sanctuary in private. I nodded my head and gave instructions to the other giants to settle the lodgings of the others that came with me. I also gave them food ingredients so that they can prepare a meal for everybody.

In total, there are 35 giants, 52 elves and 38 heralds currently in Marahuyo. It was a huge jump in population but it was good that we prepared enough housing and space for all of them. More people means faster construction progress and a livelier economy so I believe it was all fine. I may need to do a quick ocular tomorrow morning once all the talks and arrangements have been settled.

Makisig, Dakila, me, Ithil, Vaelion and Yoffir started walking towards our designated village center. As we walked away, I called on the bunch of childhood friends, all 13 of them, to follow us and I saw their faces light up and I even saw them have a little bit more spring in their steps.

Once we have all settled inside the village hall’s meeting room, I immediately asked Yoffir what he wanted to talk about. He made a deep breath and then started talking about the thing he and his group have done throughout the years. There were both good and bad things since they had to keep themselves undercover for their own safety. He even had to become a consultant, a hidden elder of some sorts, to be able to have enough power to protect his own people.

He said that he only had a few trusted aides left, only four of them in fact. They were children of elves and heralds that were tagged as traitors during the war since they decided not to fight and help the Eieneans. He secretly raised those children and gave them different identities since they were already orphans at that time. He trained them well so that they can protect themselves.

He also did not withhold the truth of their births so their hate for Freyheimr ran deeply through their veins and their minds since they were young. He then said that he sent them all out of Freyheimr before the Annual Mystique Blood Union Festival in the guise of important tasks and missions to avoid the effects of the curse.

For his four adopted children (he insisted that they were like his niece and nephews), they have a way to know where each of them were at any given time much like a homing device of some sort so those guys will definitely appear right outside Marahuyo as early as tomorrow since he suddenly moved to a different location without giving them a heads up. I asked him what will their possible reactions be if they saw him wearing a green bracelet for slaves but he simply smirked and said he wasn’t sure while giving me a meaningful look. This cunning old man is testing me, huh?

As for the other men in the room, I gave them permission to set up their new workplaces and shops again in any unoccupied piece of land within the sanctuary. Yoffir then pushed his luck and asked me if it was okay for him to setup his own house and shop as well. He then meaningfully told me that I wasn’t the only one who stole as many valuable items as one could from Freyheimr. I asked him how much space he needed and he gave me an amount equal to three living spaces which earned him a raised eyebrow from me.

I sighed and gave Makisig instructions to find a space that fits Yoffir’s requirements. The talks only lasted about half an hour before we all went out to help out in preparing the whole community’s dinner.

Most of the people were given temporary abodes for now and then they will be assigned their own plot of land. They will be free to use any of the raw materials available and construct their preferred homes in the next days. As for me, I also don’t have a home yet in this sanctuary since during the times I was here, the priority was the homes of the new inhabitants, the community kitchen and other essential building like the food storage, medicine storage and securing a source of clean water. As for my visit today, I will finally have time to design my first ever home in this world.

The plot of land I claimed for myself was in the northernmost part of the sanctuary which was aat the foot of the middle mountain that was bordering the sanctuary. Once everybody has been settled in their homes for the night, I walked alone towards the north to start building my house. As I was walking, I already noticed several people following me discreetly. Well, they think they were being discreet that is. I suddenly stopped walking and they also did. They even stopped breathing to not be detected. I wonder how long they can keep their breaths in. I smirked then teleported 500 meters forward to see what the stalkers reaction would be.

After reappearing 500 meters towards my north, I went up a tree and placed a stealth spell on myself. After barely 10 minutes, I finally saw who was following me. It was an odd combination of races whoch included Vaelion (elf), Reiss (herald) and Kidlat (giant). They stopped right below the tree I was hiding in and started looking around. They seem to have nice teamwork. I talking while using a sound dispersion spell so they couldn’t pinpoint where I was, ”It’s past bedtime. What are you three doing in the middle of the forest?”

The shoulders of the three men who were caught in the act, jumped almost simultaneously. I saw their faces pale but nobody answered my question. I teleported behind them and touch each of their backs then sent them back to the village center. Once the distraction are gone, I sped towards the place where I will be building my new home.

I set up some barrier stones around the property and injected mana to them. I plan to have a different security setup where only me, my trusted men and my future children will be allowed inside this area. Once the first barrier is up, I placed a separate barrier that would act like a one-way mirror so the people inside can look and hear whatever is happening outwards but nobody can do the same from the outside.

Since I already have a house plan in mind, construction was quite quick and easy. It only took me 10 hours to construct everything. I started with the main house which has 3 floors.

The first floor was the living room, kitchen, dining area, a common restroom, and my study and office where I can meet with important visitors. The second floor has my main bedroom, my mini-library and private office, a luxurious bathroom and toilet with a walk-in closet. The third floor has the main protection orb of the sanctuary, a teleportation portal and 12 receptacles similar to the one found in the room of beginnings just in case I need to place life orbs after stealing them away from unworthy men. The top floor has a beautiful glass dome that has an ever-changing night sky full of stars.

On the rest of the land, I constructed smaller villas for my other ”vessels” to at least give them a feel that they are different from the rest of the men here. I designed it like a modern twin house back on earth and there’s a total of 10 of them around the main house (a total of 20 houses) surrounded by their own personal gardens. It was a small private village on its own. These houses are still waiting for their future owners for now. Once I was happy with my arrangements, I went inside the master’s bedroom and fell asleep immediately.
