Chapter 3647  Running Things

"Best of luck, Smith," he said Aymn. "Thank you for everything you did, Aymn," I said to the man.

It had been ten days since I had arrived in the city, and Aymn had helped a lot in making me understand the responsibilities.

"You would have been fine without me. It is clear you had the experience," he said, and I smiled. Yes, I had some practice in running the academy after the extermination of the Grimms, but I had unloaded that responsibility as soon as I saw my successor ready to handle the responsibilities.

I walked him to the front of the manor before he took the sky. I watched him till he disappeared before coming back inside.

A minute later, I entered the conference room, where fourteen people were sitting. These were the people who actually ran the borough. My job is to keep an eye on their work and direction.

A minute later, I entered the conference room, where fourteen people were sitting. These were the people who actually ran the borough. My job is to keep an eye on their work and direction.

"Everyone…" I begin with the meeting.

It lasted for one, and a half hours before everyone walked out of it. I look, at the elevator, when to the top floor, where no one is allowed in.

I looked at the borough and the city and couldn't help but sigh. Even now, I want to leave. It is a beautiful city, and I wouldn't have minded spending some time, but I couldn't afford to do that.

I have to keep progressing without stopping. It is the only way I would be able to meet my family and Marina. Unfortunately, I couldn't leave for at least a year; four max. Though most have to stay for three, leaving in two rare and only one person had been able to leave within a year in the past century.

I didn't want to stay, even a year either, but I couldn't simply leave. It is mandatory.

Though, if I found something fishy, I could go back to the organization. I met with the Prime Volsnorth, who told me they had found something going on in there but found no proof of it.

As long as I found even a hint, that led to proof; I would get out of here and they wouldn't send me on any administrative training until I had reached Sky Sovereign.

I closed my eyes and entered my core; everything was nearly the same here. The plants are growing, and the clones are working.

There is one addition, which I added four days ago. I had started forging it for nearly three months and finished quickly, but soon the problem had occurred, and I needed some specific material.

I didn't have, nor the organization, and needed to wait for over two months before I got it and completed forging.

It is a purple-black thick metallic disk of three and a half meters and there are six small pools, or some might even holes. Four of them are equal in size half-meter in diameter, with the fifth one being a quarter of them.

The sixth one is smaller than my palm.

All six of them have been filled with colorful things. They are powerful energies; even a single drop from them could vaporize me.

The pools contain the energies from the branches; the artifact had broken their original form and converted into the form through which they could easily be utilized.

Till now, they haven't been utilized. The energies are too powerful, I wasn't able to use them either alchemy or artifice.

Though, I might use them within a year or two, depending on how things go.

I looked at the disk for a moment, especially the time and energy. It is for this, I had to wait for that specific material. Without that material, the disc wasn't able to process that tiny branch and store the energies from it.

Soon, I appeared at the door of the library and entered inside.

I glanced at the clones working on the establishment before sitting at the table and started working on the formation.

For the past eight days, I have been working on the most complex ancient rune formation yet. It will be a big leap for me if I am able to create it, but it is difficult.

If it had been easy, I wouldn't have been focusing on it this much, but I have to do it. It will make my inheritance more powerful.

Most importantly, I could use it as a base to create an even more powerful version of it for the Earth Sovereign inheritance.

I shook away those far-fetched thoughts and focused fully on the task ahead of it. Only after succeeding in, it, I would be able to do those things in the future.
