Chapter 745: Visiting the Stalker (1/2)

Sam is not alone in his construction. He did the first step which is making the concrete slabs on his own and he would need to continue doing so. But the rest of the work could be left to someone else.

For example, his shadows. Even though he can take his beasts out too, he is not exactly comfortable with that hidden observer breathing down his neck.

As for why he is not going and dealing with them directly, he was waiting for the word from Raunak about the involvement of his future father-in-law. He wanted to know this information to decide on his approach.

If he was not involved, he would have just dealt with them and be done with it. But now that his involvement is there, he would have to think of a different way. He has to make sure that his message goes through.

Even if this group of people particularly didn't come from that guy, he would make use of them to give that message.

As for why this future father in law has special treatment, it is simple. If it is a political backlash, Sam would only need power but doesn't have to show it all to the opponent and leave them in mystery so that they can hold them back.

After all, fighting for power will still make them have some reservations, they have to be treated in such a way that there is an unexplored terrain in front of them. They shouldn't know what they are stepping into. Their only knowledge should be that the terrain is dangerous.

But when they are fighting for their pride, ego, and any other emotions, they have to be given a mad scare. It will either provoke them to the point they can no longer keep their sanity or they would be scared enough to keep mum for a significant amount of time.

So, before he did something to them, he is keen on finishing this construction. This would also send a different kind of message.

That he wouldn't be stopped just because of the restrictions he placed on him.

Sam worked fast. Most of the lifting and placing was done by the shadows. He deliberated on taking the MInotaurs out, but after some thought, he didn't think it was a good idea.

As for placing the slabs on top of each other, those things are done by Sky.

The most difficult and time taking thing is creating the slabs themselves. Not the stacking them or even fusing them.

For the next four days, he was working on it continuously. After getting a hang of mixing this concrete, he left that work for the Ape and mostly focused on fusing them.

He even laid down a formation to reduce the hardening time by a lot.

Except for the occasional meteorite attacks, the construction went on smoothly.

Within ten days it was done.

He was satisfied with the work he had done. Even though it is not aesthetically pleasing to the eye and the color is not exactly what someone wants to look at, it is a structure that would hold up.

After finishing the construction, Sam went to visit Raunak.

In the past few days, all the city people are curious about Sam. Many of them knew that he pissed of some officials. But they don't know exactly what he did. They were completely denied to sell anything to him.

They are wondering how he would survive as they knew that he is a businessman. A businessman with no other businessmen in touch, which would be a hard thing to overcome.

But they came to know that he is building something in the forest without anyone's help. Everything was done on his own.

This is enough to raise their interest.

Particularly, some men in the construction business are extremely interested in this, so when they saw Sam coming into the city, they have some expressions of greed and there are some people moving into the forest.

Sam went to meet with Raunak. He had to wait a while because Raunak is busy with something. Only after a few minutes, did Raunak came out of the office of the City lord. His expression is cold and unfeeling. Completely unlike his usual self.

”Factory is finished.”

Sam didn't beat around the bush and make any small talk.

”Let's go then. All I have to do is record some images of the factory and send them back. Then they would send their representative here.”

Both of them started walking to the camp.

”Was all the land you bought used up?” Raunak asked as they walked.

”Not really. There is a lot of space left. The factory for biscuits is not that big. It at most used up half the land.”
