30 Chapter 30
After leaving the palace, Shin went to the battlefield to retrieve the scales and teeth of all the dragons he could see.
He didn't want to take their bodies because it would take up too much space in his personal space, so he only took the bodies of dragons or creatures that stood out from the others.
Dragon teeth, claws, scales have always been top quality materials for crafting, although Shin does not think they will be useful to him to build his Ultra Divine weapon or even an Immortal weapon.
But they could always be items for sale if he needed money, whether in the world of Fairy Tail or any other.
When he arrived on the battlefield, he saw countless corpses lying on the ground.
Dragon corpses and human corpses, but the difference was that human corpses rotted faster than dragon corpses.
Shin landed on the ground and hurried to take all the resources from the hundreds of dragon bodies lying on the ground.
With all this, he was sure that he would not have any money problems, or at least not in the world of Fairy Tail.
He took his gourd that he had hidden in his clothes (as if by magic lol) and absorbed all the resources.
He knew that his personal space was big enough to store everything, his element of space being of medium rank, so his personal space was big enough to store a dozen dragon corpses and knowing this, he was almost sure that at the highest rank, his personal space would be almost infinite.
Moreover, he could simply think of the object or living being to get it out of his gourd, which reassured him because, given the size of his personal space, it would have been complicated to search for what he wanted.
Having finished absorbing all the materials, Shin wasted no time and flew to the mountains to try to find ore.
After several minutes of flying, he reached a mountain and could see a cave full of ore at its entrance.
He took all the ore from the entrance and ventured further into the cave to absorb all the minerals he could see.
By absorbing everything, he was able to get a wide variety of metals.
He was able to get iron, titanium, steel, copper, silver, gold, diamond and ruby.
Shin was very shocked to see so many varieties of minerals in one cave, knowing that he had some, he wondered if he was missing any.
He thought he must have stumbled upon THE cave that contained all the minerals in the world, and thinking that, he thought he was very lucky.
His ore harvest was faster than expected and the harvest exceeded all his expectations, so without further ado he left the cave and headed for his final destination.
His cave and now his old house.
Almost there, Shin was able to see the forest that he knew well because he had plenty of time to go there to see, relax and take care of the animals.
He could also feel the energy of life which was in greater quantity than anywhere else.
This was to be expected, because Shin had already transmitted a large amount of life energy when he destroyed it the first time he arrived, and then with all the time he spent here, the forest was able to absorb Shin's life energy every time.
Shin didn't necessarily realize this because the amount he took was for Shin small, which is not surprising given that Shin technically has an immense amount of life energy that is continually regenerating.
Crossing in an instant the forest, Shin arrived in front of his cave.
Seeing it, he felt a small feeling of sadness at the idea of abandoning this place in which he stayed for a whole year, his first "home" since his reincarnation.
He also felt the approach of the animals from the forest towards the lake at the foot of the mountain which seemed to have sensed his presence.
He entered the cave and again observed the crystals that adorned the wall throughout the cave.
He knew that these crystals were filled with magical power, making them more powerful and resistant than the classic minerals he had found so far.
When he arrived in the cave, he was able to see the view he had not seen for 6 months.
After looking at it one last time, he took the crystals and left only a few to preserve the beauty of the cave.
Finished putting the crystals in his gourd, Shin came out of the cave and thought about how to hide it a minimum.
Then an idea came to him.
The cave was just above the lake at the foot of the mountain so he flew a little above it and landed on the top of the mountain.
*BAM*
He gave a slight punch on the ground to create a small crater.
Shin then concentrated his magic power in his palm to make a ball of water appear.
His element of water was only a low rank but he could always create water, it was the base.
Concentrating even more magic power in the water ball, the water ball grew to the size of a basketball.
Shin threw the water ball into the crater he had previously created so that the water ball would crash into it and fill the crater with water.
The crater was connected to the edge of the mountain, so the water flowed out of the crater to fall off the mountain and flowed down to the foot of the crater to merge with the lake.
The waterfall, which passed in front of the cave entrance, was wide and dense enough to hide the cave entrance.
Then it added a charm to the landscape as a bonus, so everything worked for the best.
Happy with his result, Shin jumped from the top of the mountain to land on the ground and admired his creation.
During his admiration, all the animals came close to him, surrounding him completely but always staying at a certain distance so as not to disturb him.
Shin then shifted his attention to the animals.
Turning around, he could see that they were all sitting down to hear him as pets.
This scene made him laugh, as the animals tilted their heads in confusion.
"It's time for me to fulfill my promise," Shin said to the animals.
As they heard Shin, all the animals felt excited as they wagged their tails, ears, stuck out their tongues, and had sparkling, starry eyes.
In the animals there were rabbits, foxes, wolves, bears, deer, birds, snakes, and all kinds of forest animals.
Always smiling as usual, Shin took out his canteen.
"This gourd will absorb you in another space while waiting for me to return to the divine realm to take you there," Shin explained.
All the animals nodded their heads as a sign of affirmation for Shin.
They didn't even ask any questions or protest, they had complete confidence in Shin.
The gourd floated above Shin's palm as the tip shone with a blue light that resembled space.
The blue light scattered in several parts until it reached all the animals and immediately afterwards the blue light retreated back into the gourd with the animals.
"Perfect"
Shin had now accomplished everything he wanted to do this morning so he quickly returned to Dragnof.
Everything he had just done, he had done in only 1 hour.
So when he arrived at Dragnof, Irene didn't seem to be awake yet.
Shin sneaked back into his own room and waited on his bed thinking.
'I'll have to concentrate on my elements as well to have at least a medium level of mastery on all of them, but for now I'm going to concentrate on the basics of the forge'
Meditating for a while, the door of Shin soon began to knock.
Hearing them, Shin opened his eyes and smiled as he got up from his bed to open the door.
When the door was open, he could see the only person who had given him the feeling of love between a woman and a man.
The woman was smiling, radiating a joyful, shimmering aura and was accompanied by that beautiful smile that could knock anyone down.
"Good morning, did you have a good night?" Irene asked gently.
"Yes, thank you." Shin could only answer with an affectionate smile.
"Let's go then" blushing at her smile and the sight of Shin, Irene said to Shin.
Then they both left.
