What is money?
This question can have many answers. Be it power, influence, comfort, even love.
In the midst of all this, what is most valuable?
Many believe it to be love. Others want a life of luxury.
But...
Maira believes that to have all this the biggest cost is... Time!
Yes, using time, time that can be used to make money, can also be used to say one last time to the person you love the most that the happiest thing that ever happened was meeting him/her.
Maira believes she knows the value of her time. The time she spent, whether it was when she created the Dimas Corporation or even the time she spent coming home early to cook food for her children, hug them, pamper them a little, do the impossible to get more time with them, these are all valuable to her.
A global crisis. A general change, even in this kind of ordeal, she didn't forget those words. Didn't forget to say he loves her kids. She didn't forget to visit her father and tell him she loves him. As well as not forgetting to run the company she created and so many people now depend on her.
"I will not sit idly by while I know there is a threat to the one I love!" Floating in the air, using Origin Materialization to create a pair of wings, Maira looked like a goddess of war as her back hundreds of thousands of insects manifested as if she were a gigantic hive of flying insects.

Scattering in all directions, the insects look for any clues that might discover where the people behind the impending danger are.
'Luan was right, staying at that specific location while controlling the formation - it's like I have infinite Qi.' Maira, who controlled the swarm of insects, was more than surprised at the speed of recovery of Qi she was able to achieve thanks to formation around the island.
Meanwhile, the fairies looked at Maira curiously. So far, Maira is the second to use that much power at once and was able to use the formation to her favor.
"Wow, she's the princess' grandmother, yes?" A fairy was delighted as she looked.
"Yes Yes!" Another fairy said, "See how much power she can use... She's amazing~"
"Hehehe~ As expected of the princess' grandmother." Another fairy laughed and said, "But why is she doing this?"
The elder fairy said, "Someone is targeting the island. It looks like she is trying to find the culprit."
"Is that so?" One of the fairies cocked her head cutely as she put her index finger to her lips.
"Should we help?" another fairy asked.
"Yes, I think we should." The fairy of light said.
"The island is also our home, and the princess, do we have to help? I think so~" The hope fairy smiled as she said it.
After making up their mind, the fairies flew to where Maira is.
Maira felt the presence of the fairies and smiled gently. "Hello, little fairies."
Seeing the gentle smile, and hearing Maira's soft voice, the fairies smiled in response.
The light fairy then said, "Hello, we are here because we want to help you, can we help?"
Maira was a little surprised, but then smiled: "Really? I thank."
With sparkling giggles, the fairies took turns kissing Maira's forehead, giving her the fairies' blessing.
The number of buffs she received was enough to raise her power on a massive scale. This got to the point where she was able to summon even more bugs at the same time to be her eyes and ears.
"Remember, the blessings will last a little over 2 hours." The elder fairy circled Maira as she said.
"I understand. Thanks." Maya smiled.

Meanwhile, in the tower.
"That's it," Luan muttered as he sat in the lotus position.
In front of him, a small white dragon floated. It was a little bigger than the palm of his hand. The little white dragon hatched from the egg that Luan gained upon reaching the 50th floor of the tower, mixed with Cloud Origin. By using Cloud Origin, the little white dragon can multiply.
Not only can it multiply, but it can also possess the body of someone else with less mental power than Luan. Obviously, if you manage to prevent the little white dragon from entering the body, even though it is weaker, it will not be possible to possess the body.
"But if I defeat the enemy first, that won't be a problem," Luan muttered.
This is close to his plan. Control the current presidents of the countries on earth, thus, not having to worry so much about the possible war that will happen.
'Unlike my past life, I don't think the third world war will happen in 2 years... However, it's no guarantee that it won't happen... It's just a matter of time until the earth stabilizes completely.' Luna contemplated.
Unlike humans, insects grow at a very fast rate. Keeping the insects under control is something that even with the help of the tower would take a little over 1 year.
Animals also grow faster. Mainly because they are not afraid to eat what they see in front of them. The caution of animals is not superior to that of humans.
Being cautious can be a positive point, but in evolution, humans lag behind animals in this requirement. Many rare plants are recognized by animals and they are more determined when eating. Some animals are still a little cautious, but when hungry, they end up eating anyway.
Insects do not know fear. Most insects grow so fast it's scary.
'Thinking now... The insects must have already strengthened, it's just a matter of time to attack...' Luan touched his chin as he thought.
While it shouldn't have gone beyond the Third Order, it will be difficult to exterminate if it attacks a large scale. Although humans have grown stronger in that time, there aren't that many that can survive if attacked by insects.
'It's no use thinking about it now, after I get out of here, I'll think of something to solve this problem..' Luan got up and walked towards the table not far away, where Ingrid and Lenore were meditating.
