Chapter 834: Putting Back (2/2)
”Should we stop him?”
Dima pondered for a bit before saying.
”Just wait a bit. Let's see what he's trying to do. He can't really escape from us, after all.”
”But he isn't trying to do anything either.”
Krune then glanced behind at the guild as he threatened.
”Are you sure you wanna stay? Alright, you can stay alone there.”
Suddenly...
*Rumble!*
The building seemed to answer Krune's words as it began to lift itself from the ground again.
*Ah, ah, ah, ah..*
Just like a child, the building felt frightened to be left alone without its parent. This gigantic building that could smash most people and demon beasts of the city was afraid of being left behind.
*bam, bam, bam...*
It immediately began to clumsily walk as it followed Krune from behind.
”Good girl. Papa will give you a reward after we go back.”
After hearing that, everyone thought simultaneously.
'It's... a girl?'
And just like that, a 'baby' building went back to where the Awakener Guild's building previously was. Krune had some difficulty explaining to it how it should sit down again. However, after several failures, the building finally rested on its position once again. Well, it's just that the entire area was full of cracks and broken things.
Krune finally let out a sigh of relief as he said.
”Phew... Good girl. Now stay there and don't leave unless I say it.”
Krune began to ponder what he should give as a reward for a... building... However, he didn't have time to do that. As soon as the Spirit Awakener Guild stopped, Dima and the other elders of the guild rushed inside before touching the floor. Following that, they used their power to connect to the Building's Spirit.
”Now!”
*Ahhhh!*
The building then let out a scream of pain as it trembled all over. However, that only lasted one second before it went completely silent once more.
”This...”
Krune was shocked by what he saw. He didn't even have time to react at all. The Guild Master and the elders had moved too fast.
”They killed the Building's Spirit.”
Even so, Krune didn't get angry. He knew that they simply couldn't let the building act on its own again since it could cause havoc in the city. As much as he didn't like to see the Spirit he awakened dying, he couldn't do anything about it. Once again, it came to that discussion about whether it was right or wrong to kill Equipment Spirits. Unfortunately, it would stay without an answer.
Last but not least, Krune knew of another problem. The building's Spirit was bound to die in the next one to two days. The same could be said for the other pieces of equipment that wanted Krune to finish waking them up.
”Sigh... Sorry, little girl. There was nothing I could do for you.”
Inside the building, Dima sighed in relief.
”It's finally over.”
Following that, he gave everyone a few orders.
”Have the accountants calculate all the damage in the city. Have the guild employees start fixing the guild. The elders should go out and apologize to the other guilds and the City Lord as well. Tell them that I will hear their requests after everything is settled down.”
”Yes, Guild Master.”
Soon after, he looked at Krune and Roben before saying.
”You two, come with me. Bring Zap as well.”
Krune and Roben nodded, quickly following Dima.
Inside Dima's room, the whole place was upside down. His desk and other furniture had broken apart or were out of place. Documents could be seen everywhere too. However, Dima quickly using his Godly Energy and grabbed all of that. He put the broken furniture in his Spatial Ring and reorganized the rest. Not too long after, the room was organized again. It's just that it lacked a few things that he would buy later.
Finally, he returned his attention to Krune, Roben, and Zap. As for the other Equipment Spirits that Krune almost woke up, they already began to lose consciousness. He hasn't finished awakening them, so they would return to be just a few pieces of equipment.
”Now then, explain to me what happened.”
Roben nodded and recounted everything that happened.
”So it was true... I saw the other equipment outside that had their spirits partially awakened. If not because of this incident, I would be more shocked by that instead.”
Dima then paid attention to Krune.
”Just how did you do that? Spirit Awakening should have been the hardest profession out there. I've never heard about someone awakening more than one Spirit, let alone so many of them. Can you show me that black cloud Roben and Zap talked about?”
Krune nodded, not minding it too much. Immediately, he concentrated on the Calamity Laws. The dark cloud then appeared on his hand a few moments later. After seeing that, Dima's eyes lit up.
”Interesting.”
