Instead of creating the shelter immediately, Nial chose to wait until Ophelia arrived.

Ophelia was bound to provide him with some helpful insights that may as well change countless plans in the construction process. She was intelligent and one of the best new generation Runiciers.

Thus, Nial ended up clarifying a few things with Michael Ignis, Master Crevian, the Dracos Lord and the leader of the Shelturion, Great Wirliam.

He had a few things to tweak and modify about the plan they had already come up with which they adjusted in the following days.

Afterward, Nial ended up practicing the Vortex of Abyss cultivation technique to expand the length of his first Darkness Pillar. So far, only the foundation of the first Darkness Pillar had been constructed, and Nial wanted to focus on his strength so as to make sure that he was a little bit stronger when he would meet Ophelia.

It was not exactly necessary but Nial had heard about a few beings at the Mythican rank being able to emerge on Jundra. The Mythican rank followed the Keltia rank and it was the cultivation rank in which one turned the Mana Pillars within the Mana Sea into Temples.

Nial felt that the requirement to create temples was a little bit odd but it was not as if he had anything against it…except that the Mythican rank was another time-consuming cultivation rank.

However, Nial was fine fighting beings at the Mythican rank since he was already at the beginning of the Keltia rank. He would give his utmost if some beings at the Mythican rank would try to attempt to destroy his plans.

As long as no being at the Trixor rank would emerge on Jundra, in the territory where he intended to construct his own shelter, everything would be fine! The Trixor rank was what most Originals considered to be Demi Gods. It was not comparable to the Demi God stage of the Ascenders since Demi God Originals were as strong as the Lesser God Ascenders, possibly even a little more stronger.

Nial would be fine as long as no being at the Trixor rank would suddenly appear. Jundra shouldn\'t yet allow someone like that to appear, let alone any Gods who might think that it was time to wreak havoc by descending as well.

He was not sure how long it would take before Jundra would be able to free itself of more shackles that had been put on it, but Nial sincerely hoped that it would take a little bit longer. He was not in a hurry to fight Gods, not yet, at least!

After Nial cultivated for over a month, a group of Dracos entered the Halheim shelter, precisely the expanded area that had been constructed by the Army of Dracos.

Nial sensed the arrival of a familiar source of Mana, which made him stop cultivation. He jumped through the darkness of the isolated room using the Grasp of Eclipse movement technique and emerged in the dark shadows near the newcomers.

Nial was less than 20 meters away from them when they took note of him. Their instincts caused them to react very differently. Some ended up raising their guard by moving into a defensive stance and simultaneously unsheathing their weapons, while others stared blankly at the near-untraceable presence of the blind human who had sprung up from within the shadows.

"Hello everyone, my name is Nial Orin and I hope we can have a somewhat friendly cooperation while constructing the shelter, and of course, we continue it even after we\'re done constructing the shelter!" He said, stretching out his right hand in an attempt to shake the hands of the newcomers.

However, most of them didn\'t react due to their vigilance against Nial, who had been able to sneak up on them without their realization. Only the Draco, whose mana Nial was familiar with, stepped forward. It was Ophelia who stepped forward, her hand grasping his before she tightened her grip.

\'A test?\'

Nial was not sure if she wanted to test him but he was not someone who liked losing a battle, no matter who the opponent Thus, he used some of his physical strength to grip Ophelia\'s hand tightly while his expression remained the same as before.

His strength was bound to be higher than Ophelia\'s, especially since he was already at the Keltia rank while Ophelia had barely entered the Deux rank.

Nial and Ophelia were almost the same age but Nial was simply too fast in his cultivation process. Ophelia was already considered exctraordinarily talented by advancing to the Deux rank before the age of 30, yet Nial managed to surpass her glorious achievement several years earlier. He advanced to the Keltia rank long before reaching the age of 35, and he was an Archmaster Runicier at such a young age to boot!

Even Ophelia was not yet an Archmaster Runicier, officially at least!

Well, officially, Nial was not an Archmaster Runicier either…but that didn\'t really matter since he was good enough to be considered an Archmaster Runicier.

"We will help you, of course! If you show us the blueprint of the shelter we will be able to better assist in constructing the foundation of your shelter in the near future. I even brought some Architects, engineers and everything else you can wish for!" Ophelia answered while trying to hide her pained expression. She loosened her grip around Nial\'s hand which resulted in Nial doing exactly the same.

He smiled at her in return while retracting his hand. All of a sudden, his expression changed a little and his head flicked up to the sky. The others followed suit as they heard a loud shriek from high in the air, where they could see a large black dot that kept enlarging.

"Don\'t attack. He is my partner in crime," Nial cautioned when he noticed that the vigilant Dracos were about to prepare for battle. Of course, Nial didn\'t really want the Dracos to fight Ryu, who shot down to the ground without any mercy.

He landed on top of Nial and threw him to the ground, which caused the Dracos and even Master Crevian to feel a little stupefied.

"I am still alive, no worries…" Nial said as he emerged out of the darkness that spread out all over the ground in the blink of an eye.

He emerged next to Ryu who pushed his head against Nial\'s body, demanding to be caressed all day.

Nial obliged and began patting Ryu since they hadn\'t been together for quite a while. He handed over the plans for the creation of his very own shelter, where he had also mentioned a clear separation of tasks.

Ophelia read through the checklist of tasks that were clearly distributed amongst the races and occupations of the people who were willing to help Nial in the construction of the shelter. The distribution was well thought and it made sense, however, Ophelia couldn\'t help but stare blankly at the pages.

The checklist was mostly correct. There were a few tasks that could be reworded or put in a different order but the core essence of their meaning was still the same as before.

However, the things Ophelia read the moment she turned to the second page were not something she had expected to see, at all!

"What the…"
