  *Sigh……

  Sighing out softly, Samuel massaged his shoulders and sat down.

  Not too long ago, Shiro had just told him that they should start making preparations for moving since she had just finished creating the anchor. But when it comes to moving everyone, it’ll take much longer.

  Roughly around a few weeks or so and yet Shiro had told me to prepare to move immediately.

  Before he could even have a proper rest, he heard a soft ping as the ear piece turned on.

  "Samuel can you hear me?" Shiro called out as Samuel sat up.

  "Yes I can your highness. What do you require?" Samuel sat up immediately.

  "Are the preparations complete?" Shiro asked as Samuel’s smile twitched.

  "I’m sorry your highness but I was not able to complete it within the time that you have given me." Samuel replied with a sigh.

  "Mn…… that’s a problem. Oh well, are you able to call all of the spirits? I can do something about their houses later. The main thing is that I need them to be gathered in the centre or at least in one place. The centre just makes things easier." Shiro asked.

  "I don’t know if I can get everyone but since it’s an order by the queen, I’m sure they’ll oblige. Is there any particular reason for it though? If there is, it’ll be easier to convince the masses."

  "There is a reason. I’ll be moving them to their new home via large scale teleportation I suppose. The main thing that’s worrying me is their possessions. I can duplicate their homes without any problem." Shiro sighed.

  "But since this is going to take a while, I don’t mind if you take your time with this since the city isn’t going anywhere. My main concern is keeping it hidden but I can hide it underwater for now. I’ll set up a barrier so that it doesn’t get flooded. Just get everyone ready to move and I’ll show myself at the capital in a few moments."

  Without giving Samuel a chance to reply, the ear piece cut itself out as Samuel stood in place dumbfounded for a moment before sighing.

  However, even if Shiro’s requests were a bit on the unreasonable side, he knew that she wouldn’t ask them to do something for no reason. Even though he had a few doubts about her teleporting everyone, he set the doubts aside for now and let her actions speak for themselves.

  Stretching his body, he immediately called the other elders and had everyone gather towards the centre. With the amount of people they had, a few would need to sit on the rooftops, but this was fine for now. Plus, even though this was the spirit capital, there weren’t many humanoid spirits around since they were essentially refugees.

  If they weren’t oppressed or forced to flee, the amount of spirits in the capital would be much higher.

  Sending out word that this was a royal decree where Shiro would show them to their new home and that everyone was required, Samuel left out details on what she could be doing since he wasn’t sure aside from the fact that she was going to teleport them all.

  After around an hour or so, most of the spirits were gathered around the plaza but they weren’t able to check how many had actually arrived.

  "Hmm…… I’d say about 60% have attended. Not too bad for an unreasonable request. I wanted people to come here so that they’re not teleported in the middle of doing something but this’ll do for now."

  "AH!!" Crying out in surprise, Samuel turned to his side and saw that Shiro was standing there nonchalantly while glancing towards the crowd.

  "Well I’ll bring the 60% of people away first." She shrugged before glancing back at Samuel who was looking at her with shock.

  "You feeling ok? Why do you look so surprised?" Shiro asked curiously.

  "Ah *ahem*. Sorry about that your highness. Shall we address the masses about what you want to do?" Samuel asked as he was shocked at how suddenly she had appeared.

  He didn’t sense any fluctuations besides him so the moment he saw her, he was fearful of what she could have done if she was an assassin.

  "Mn I should. Both Nan Tian and Isilia are waiting so I’ll keep the speech short. I’m not one for speeches or something along those lines. I’ll probably just say something like I’m sure you’re curious as to why I called you here or something." Shiro shrugged before walking forward.

  Before Samuel could stop her, she had already cleared her throat.

  *AHEM!

  "I’m sure all of you have questions about why I have called you here. I’m not sure how much Samuel has said but I shall tell you our next goals. I have acquired or rather, constructed our new home that will allow us to live properly without cowering in small reclusive areas like this. Our new home is safe and secure, it is armed with weapons to fend off our enemies, it’s bigger than most cities and I can guarantee your safety. I know it sounds unbelievable, the fact that I have the power to construct something like this however, know this. I, your Queen, will not lie to you! My race who has been oppressed; I will do everything in my power to stop the oppression placed upon us by the previous races due to the fact that you didn’t have a leader.

  "The times that you needed to hide are behind you. You will receive the power to strike back at your enemies yourself. If you do not seek battle, I will protect you as the Queen. All those that wish to fight back, it is my promise that I will arm you with the best weapons and armour to keep you safe. I will not force you to fight as I am not a believer or forcing actions upon you.

  "Even if I have to stand alone on the front lines, I will defend you to the best of my abilities and my first act will be gifting you the mightiest of fortresses that I can construct. With my power, I will gift you both a home and an instrument of power against our enemies! If you fight, I will gift you with techniques, training manuals, weapons and armour that you have never seen before!" Shiro cried out as her aura flared up.

  Hearing her shout, quite a few of the guards that were patrolling felt emotional as they have always hated the feeling of fleeing from the enemies. Imaging a scene of fighting on the front lines as their own queen supported them caused them to grip their weapons harder.

  Slamming her hands together, a giant tier 6 magic circle appeared around them as the spirits that were gathered in the plaza felt weightless for a moment before realising that they were currently floating in above the sea.

  "I present to you our new home, Asharia." Shiro smiled before snapping her fingers.

  Suddenly, a glorious city hovering in the water presented itself before the masses as the size of the city was much bigger than what everyone had expected.

  Even though quite a bit of the land was bare, they could see that houses were being constructed by nanobots every second.

  "I will offer you each a scanner to mark your land and it will be reconstructed on the fortress so you do not need to worry about not having a home. The scanner will also have you register some of your details so that it will mark you down as a citizen of our new city. Once you are registered, you may ask the drones or use the computers around the city to search for anything you may require. If you don’t know the way to a friend’s house or you don’t know the way to the markets, you may ask the drones and they’ll show you the way. There are job centres for you so if you choose to stay within the safety of the fortress, you can still contribute through jobs such as farming.

  "There will be drones to assist you should you require help. Schools will be constructed and libraries will be added. I shall send everyone the details once we have proved every spirit to this city. I’m sure many of you may have concerns but I assure you, I will answer everything you require. Those that don’t want to migrate don’t need to and anything that you find lacking in this city will be attended to. Once you have registered, you can offer suggestions to the AI and they will mark down your request. The move will happen over the course of the next few weeks to months. So you do not need to rush."

  As Shiro was talking to the masses, Samuel could only stand in silence as he looked at the majestic fortress that floated on the sea.

  Balling his hands into fists, he could already imagine the spirit race launching a retaliation towards those that oppressed them before.

  Tilting his head back, he looked up at the sky and closed his eyes.

  ’Your sacrifices for everyone have not been wasted. We have received the best queen we could ask for and we will avenge your deaths!’ Samuel thought in his imagined all those that have died up to this point. Looking at Shiro, he swore in his heart that he will support her with everything he could to offer.
