The Plan.

It didn't took long for them to reach the surface with the guidance from Gobu.

Throughout their journey up, he finally took the time to look around the cavern with more attention to flesh out it details. He noted that they really just looked like any cave system with staglamites forming here and there. Only difference was that the pathways are more consistant in height and size. The exception to all of this was the room he was in where he found X-32.

'Maybe i should pay that room a visit again later...'

Adam thought as he walk. However, that thought wafted only for a few moments as the warm of the sun struck his face.

"Ahhhhhhh the sun! How I missed you so much!" Adam let out a cry of joy.

From a simple glance, one would wager that they are in the middle of a forest, far away from civilization. There isn't even a clear path from the cave entrance to anywhere thus sigifying the scarcity of visitation.

Seeing him acting as such with just a mere simmer of sunlight, Tokkie shook her head as if in disbelief while giving off a quiet chuckle.

"So where exactly are we?" Adam said once he snapped out of his joyous stupor.

"We are at the westmost corner of the continent, the outskirts of the Elvengarde Empire and Merowangsa Empire, power center of the Order of Life and Keeper of Order respectively. The continent itself is divided into 4 main powers which are Elvengarde to the west, LaMort to the east, sandwhich tightly in between is The Coalition of Free Cities and to the south of all of it is Merowangsa." Tokkie explained as she took out a map and pointed at the locations she talk about.

" I see... Looking at this map, I guess it would be safe to say that we are a good distance away from both the nearest city in the Empire of Merowangsa, Ulu Sempadan as well the Elvengarde Empire, Elfheim. We should be safe as long we don't raise any eyebrows as we build up our forces..." Adam said as he scouted the map.

" I'm will be heading back to Elfheim where my branch of the Secret Order of Chaos is located..." Tokkie says as she points at a location on the map about 10-15 days worth of distance away from them via foot.

" Alright, safe journey back! We look forward to your return with good news! " Adam said as he patted Tokkie on her shoulder.

With a smile, Tokkie kneel down and bid Adam farewell before turning around and walking into the thick of the jungle.

"Now, let's get building!" Adam said.

"Wait master. Be careful with that one. She is hiding something..." Ha'kash said once Tokkie's figure is no longer in sight.

"Hey look, I know she ain't to you standard with your rude comments but she did risk her neck to safe me here and there. She is somebody I can trust!" Adam defended.

"That may be true but the descrepencies surrounding her story is worrying..." Ha'kash replied.

"Discrepensies?" Adam questioned.

"Didn't she say her party was ambushed and she couldn't do anything before her party was killed and her taking in as a sex slave by the goblins?" Ha'kash said.

"Yeah?..." Adam replied warrily.

"Dont you find it weird how she was helpless being met with an ambush but could so easily handled 20 or more goblins alone with a single skill?" Ha'kash pointed out.

"That..." Adam found it hard to refute the claims.

"Not only that, if she came with a team and the team was wiped out, where is their horses and stuff? Surely they couldn't have brought the horses in and surely nobody could have come out or come here to steal their steed now could they..." Ha'kash pointed out once again.

P

"Stop, I trust her, I am sure she has her own reason to lie but ultimately I believe she is trustworthy!" Adam said with conviction.

"I am merely giving advises to master." Ha'kash replied as he bow.

"Good, I thank you for it but please drop it for now." Adam said sternly.

"As you wish. So what now master?" Ha'kash asked.

"There is two things on our agenda. 1st is the construction of our dungeon and its trials. However, I have been thinking, doing that alone might alert the attention of the surrounding kingdoms to our cause without a proper facade. Why would the cave reputed to be the holy site of the Faith of Chaos, the enemy of all other religion, suddenly have so much construction or activity going on... " Adam explained.

Ha'kash and Gobu nodded their head.

"... In order to reduce the suspicion as much as we can, we ough to mask the expansion of the cave by developing a village right here. That way even if people walk over and saw activity going on in the area, the can coin it towards settling of a new city and less redevelopment of the dungeon of chaos!" Adam continued with conviction.

" As expected of master, you have thought through it well!" Ha'kash clapped his hand as he spoke.

" Thank you! " Adam said as he smiled awkwardly.

Honestly speaking, it while he did thought about all of that, it wasn't the main reason why he wanted to do so and so.

The real reason he wanted to build a settlement outside was because he couldn't bare staying in the cave for the rest of his life with only deformed beings as his friends. By having small settlement build up here, it might attract other people as well and thus opening up more avenues for him in the future.

"Gobu like! What would village be called?" Gobu said as he jumped in excitement.

Adam halted awhile as he fell into deep contemplation. What should he name his new city? It must be a neutral village in order to avoid suspicion but at the same time awesome as it will be the name people will come to know his empire by. What would it be hmmmmmmm....

"How about, Village of Death!" Ha'kash said as he strike a dab.

"Eeeeer no... Too ominous..." Adam shook his head.

"Great Goburin Village!" Gobu chimed in.

"Eeer no... We are going to have more that goblins you know..." Adam chided.

It is at this moment, a random jungle cat strolled over and went 'meowwww' at the two figure infront of it.

"Cat... Roar... Cat... Roar... How about Catzor Village?" Adam said as if he have had an epiphany.

"..." Ha'kash.

"..." Gobu.
