Geralt returned to Vinliel meanwhile Adreilt stayed in the new city of the Diamond Wolfves, but before he could even say hello to Mina, Mina tackled him and hugged him.
-Mina: Thanks a lot! You ended them! I'll be free of them here! Thank you Geralt!
-Geralt: All for a good companion. Glad to see you happy again. Also, I have a new pet and a new city for the guild!
Duraralt got out of his crafting room to see Geralt.
-Duraralt: Two cities already? What will you do with the second one?
-Geralt: A place where we can farm materials. You know, a garden where we plant herbs, a good ranch for new pets and they are near a river that we could use to attract monsters to kill and obtain skin, meat and bones.
-Duraralt: A pretty solid plan. I'll do some calls but I know of 4 people who need training. And better now than later.
-Geralt: Surely I'm one of them.
-Duraralt: Nope! I need you to go to search for Tanya. She was Angel's paradise priest and enchanter. I need her to upgrade your equipment even more.
-Geralt: She's a GM?
-Duraralt: Yes. You'll have to go to the city of trees, Deliel.
-Geralt: She's a GM of Deliel?
-Duraralt: Yeah, she is with Kidd. (Muttering)And I have forbidden to go to Deliel...
-Geralt: (hears Duraralt muttering) What you did? Answer to me.
-Duraralt: Me? Well... I destroyed a shrine, 2 banks, 5 pubs, a teashop and almost turned Deliel into a big graveyard.
-Geralt: Crafting something?
-Duraralt: I'm guilty.
-Geralt: (Sighs) Okay. And you want to ask Tanya's help? You know that it'll be a big nope!
-Duraralt: She's also guilty of that. That's why Kidd is watching her.
-Geralt: Hm? What you two crafted to do that?
-Duraralt: The prototype of Diane's Staff. It exploded.
-Geralt: So, it'll be worse if Diane's Staff explodes again.
-Duraralt: Hehehehehe... (smiles)
-Geralt: And you want to upgrade our equipment with her?
-Duraralt: Yeah...
-Geralt: Do it far from the cities! Promise me that! Or in Balatraf!
-Duraralt: Okay!
-Geralt: I'll go preparing to go there. Seems that I'll be in trouble. But first that around 40-50 players that are good at fighting go to the new city. I want it covered.
-Mina: Okay, I can handle that.
-Duraralt: Meanwhile, I'll call the ones that will train Mina, Tina, Dave and Shade.
Geralt did not hear last part and left to prepare.

Meanwhile, in a port of Balatraf, there are around 400 maids working on a project. Oboro enters to see how his new project is going with a to do list in hand, because his next plan will need that project of his. Then a maid greets him. Her name is Isabella and she is the leader of the maids for now.
-Isabella: Hi, master.
-Oboro: Call me Oboro.
-Isabella: Not going to do so, sir.
-Oboro: How's the plan going?
-Isabella: The flying ship is almost completed. We managed to fix the troubles that the engineers and crafters of Greltiel found with these big mana crystals and the efficiency of the mana and covered the output that this ship needed. Still this sweet ship is a bit needy.
-Oboro: Do as needed to get the ship. The ammo is ready?
-Isabella: 10000 Bombs, 24000000 cannon balls, 100000000 bullet for our sniping rifles that are in the ship, 4000 missiles and a pair of hailstorms are coming and we will improve them. It costed a lot to obtain them without lewis approval.
-Oboro: A trouble. What about the Stratos destroyer?
-Isabella: The creator does not want to cooperate. But we will make her change of idea. Either the good way or the bad way.
-Oboro: Perfect! Minions?
-Isabella: In that we don't have more minions unless our 400 maids.
-Oboro: I'll have to go searching for more minions that will help in our attack. Not more maids.
-Isabella: Understood. Maybe talking with the small guilds will be a great idea. Geralt obliterated one. The others will be afraid of him.
-Oboro: Okay. Also the medium guilds should be a good chance.
-Isabella: They won't attack Jerome's brother.
-Oboro: A shame, but I'll try either way. Poison?
-Isabella: We have enough paralyzing poison to stop a big guild, we have like three gallons of normal poison, 2 gallons of berserk poison and 1 gallon of freezing poison.
-Oboro: Perfect! Acid?
-Isabella: 10 gallons ready to exterminate any player that you capture.
-Oboro: And lastly, equipment?
-Isabella: A rank all of it. The ship is made of elven silver with 60% of resistance to magic, 100% resistance to thunder and a barrier that could stop a hit from Alvyn.
-Oboro: Seems that the bad guy's gonna win this one! Still, try to improve the mana crystals and the mana reactor and build a killer ray on the ship with its own mana reactor and the best coolers. Still try to keep the cost low. As more we pay, easier is to be discovered.
-Isabella: But the killer ray can't withstand more than 3 shoots, and that's with around 2000 coolers! It is very slow to charge!
-Oboro: Mana loophole. Always works with weapons that need to charge. Keep the mana flowing in all the weapon.
-Isabella: But the weapon will have a cooldown time then!
-Oboro: I know. But better than not having the ray.
-Isabella: Understood sir! I'll start on it.
-Oboro: Perfect. I want to be ready for next month!
Oboro leaves with a smile that made everyone that saw him feel fear and no one wanted to talk with him with that creppy smile.

Meanwhile, in a shrine filled with earth totems, a golden haired elf girl with green eyes was healing people when Kidd entered in the shrine.
-Kidd: Tanya, someone is after you. Get ready.
-Tanya: I'll stay, there are wounded here. If someone tries to kill me, I'll fend them off myself. I'm a member of Angel's Paradise.
-Kidd: I'll cover you.
Kidd found a chair where to sit and started checking his weapon.

Things are getting interesting! Oboro is getting a new plan ready, Duraralt is trying to help Shade, Dave and the twins to make them stronger and Geralt is going after Tanya to ask for help.
