Chapter 120 - (120) Back To The Temple (1/2)

After everyone finished signing in, Geth told the people to assign their Grimoires to one of the available housing units. He gave them the rest of the afternoon and the following day to explore the city.

The facilities were much more ideal than in the Dungeons. Even though the buildings were more like hand-built cabins, they still had Formations for necessities.

Water was available through Formations that could be turned on and off like a faucet. Even a toilet with a Formation inside would disintegrate feces or urine.

Geth enjoyed inspecting the Formations in the houses and even gained a few ideas from them. According to Larz's memory, he had designed these facilities himself, but they'd since been downgraded.

Geth decided that he would continue staying in one of the treehouses. For some reason, he felt more comfortable in them than in the simple structures.

The kids still seemed strange to him, especially Peter. Seeing a three-year-old studying Runes as if he was doing calculus would be strange no matter the situation.

El had put a lot of points into Intelligence, and Til had bought her one of the Goblin's Ice Shard spells. Since that was the only ability she'd had, one of the Talents she'd received helped to enhance her ice magic capabilities.

'I wonder if I would be able to buy a State Change: Water Skill for her?' Geth had already been contemplating what Skills his family and party should get when they upgraded the Tower.

One thing that was desperately needed was more healers. Every party would need one in the future.

'We need to rush to clear these last Dungeons.' Geth sighed to himself. Not everyone could handle being away from their families for long.

Still, he was impatient to get started. From a logical standpoint, what was the point of spending time with your family if they would die from you not completing your objectives quickly enough?

He sighed again before standing up and heading towards the temple. Soon enough, he was sitting on the ground meditating while six of himself ran around in his mental sphere.

Instructions had already been given to all of his citizens. Everyone was to report to the Tower for training with Hulk and the old man.

Geth learned that the old man's name was Yue. He'd chosen it after some historical martial arts master that he admired.

He intended for himself and his party to set out within the next few days. There were only three Dungeons left to clear in the Region.

Four of his selves worked on unraveling the new simple Formations he'd discovered inside the residences. One continued working with Albus to make a small Formation to keep his form in their shared mental sphere.

The last one had his thoughts on Alise. He hadn't introduced the children or his family to her yet.

'It seems that she does have feelings for both Zolis and me, but the relationship is more for Zolis' benefit than mine. I certainly don't mind, she needs someone she can share her feelings with, and that's something that I'm incapable of.'

Geth's self was floating upside down near the top of the mental sphere while he was thinking. He stroked his beard out of habit.
