Thummmp!
The ship shook again; it was the seventh time it did in the past ten minutes and didn't make the experience less scary than the first time.
The only thing that calmed me down that, that I knew all the defensive formations were working properly. The airship was running as smoothly as it could; I decided to be satisfied with that and pulled back my soul sense and soul waves.
Even if there had been a problem. I wouldn't be able to do anything. So, I shouldn't look.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.
A moment later, I am at my core. I looked at the beautiful plants for a few minutes before walking into the library.
It took me a while to get into focus, but once I did, hours passed without me knowing. I became so engrossed in work, that I stopped thinking about everything else, including the metal box I am in, riding the spatial currents.
'It is born,'
I was working when I stopped and walked out of the library.
A moment later, I appeared in front of the hive. It is the newest hive; the third one, but it is bigger than the first one.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA new queen had been born in it, making three. This means, now I could start with it. However, I first looked at my preparations before waving my hand, opening up the restrictions on the plants, that were sealed from the eyes of hives.
Now, these bees will sense it.
The plants, I had unlocked divided into two islands were no normal plants. They are plants at Peak Sky Sovereign; the ones, I got from the garden.
It is for it; I had created the new hive. This hive will create the Sky Sovereign grade honey for me.
It will not be the best, honey, but it will be better than what they could produce outside. Those plants are rare; they are not average plants with one or two rare among them.
It will also take these bees to Sky Sovereigns.
Thankfully, I had done the calculation and knew it would be bearing the weight as long as their numbers remained in a certain range.
At first, I had no plan to do that, but I noticed. I didn't have as much as Sky Sovereign grade resources; I like to have them. I have more than most Earth Sovereigns, but less when I compare myself to the Sky Sovereign persona.
If I planned to masquerade myself as the scion of a powerful organization or even realm. I need to have the resources as such with me.
The sky-grade honey of these bees helps a lot with that.
The senses of these bees are strong; they sense the plants within a second and move toward them. There are a hundred and twenty-seven nectar-producing plants in there and some are quiet.
I am quite excited about the honey they will be able to produce.
I will get sky-grade honey in a week, but it won't be the best of what could be produced from these resources. The best one will appear in a few months when these bees reach the sky sovereign.
At that level, they will produce the best honey.
I looked at it for a few minutes more, before you opened my eyes.
It is dark in an airship, with most people lying still with their eyes closed, but barely anyone is sleeping. If could feel the soul sense of nearly everyone moving around, not caring about the privacy of the others.
Outside, there is an etiquette, but here in the metal box, there is none. The space is too small to care about it.
I released my soul senses and checked the state of the airship and felt relief when I saw everything was perfect.
The accidents are rare; the last one was two decades ago.
These people understand the risk well and do their job diligently. All the airships are tested in every way.
Tamidas didn't dare to mess with it; each airship contained a lot of Sky Sovereigns from a lot of organizations, including theirs. Each death brings consequences and affects the reputation of the organization, which they didn't want to happen.
A minute later, I once again closed my eyes and went back to my work.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA day had passed and in the day, we had crossed massive distances. So, much, that it would have taken me weeks to cross, and the journey had yet to be over.
As if giving me a sign, the airship shook again, hard. Quite a few people opened their eyes and their soul sense moved around before they closed their eyes.
They shouldn't be worried. If there is a problem. It would kill us so fast, that we wouldn't be able to act at all. We would finish in less than a second.
Time passed, and another day passed.
I am in the library as usual working on the formation for my inheritance. Which is progressing smoothly.
I already had ideas about the type of inheritance, I wanted for the Earth Sovereign and moving according to it; getting inspired by the way, which made me change the ideas or discard them.
It is a wonderful, frustrating process, but I wouldn't want it any other way.
I had many chances to gain a powerful inheritance, but they never interested me. Though, I wouldn't say, I didn't think about them. I did, thousands of times, even after coming to this world.
Those thoughts only appeared in my mind for a moment or two, before the rationality kicked in.
I know, if I hadn't got this inheritance, I wouldn't have been standing here. I would be part of the nutrients in some Grimms' body.
It is the inheritance that kept me alive. Gave me what I wanted, including the amazing core. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't have it with me.
Its help has been tremendous in my journey and will play an even bigger part in the journey ahead.
