48 [Bonus chapter]Project "Camp -> Settlement" (3)

~Wait! Wait! Cancel! No!~ However it was already too late. Lucius had completely forgotten about the recovery period he had gone through when the solis fragment was first installed, and now Pagan was down for the count, right after he had just woken up.

"I know. Don't worry, he'll be up in a few days," Lucius interrupted, pissed at himself for forgetting.

This time, however, Lucius stopped at minutes, 5, 10, 15, 20, and so on, to check if there were any leaflings who wanted to stop there. They still had work to do, and he couldn't afford all of them passing out like they usually did.
