Chapter 3: Domain

Once all the villagers had gathered in the center of the village Tomini began to speak "My name is Tomini, where is the village elder, come forth."

An elderly man came forward and spoke "I am the village elder what can I do for our savior?"' the villagers were still wary of Tomini, it's not every day that someone who can take down tens of soldiers.

"Why does the Empire send its soldiers to attack your village?" Tomini questioned the village elder. "They want to get rid of us because we are just another mouth to feed we don't produce any valuable materials but the Empire sends soldiers to keep us safe and those soldiers cost the Empire gold, In short, we are not profitable enough for the Empire" the elder finished.

Tomini knew one thing if he wanted to create a new peaceful world he would dominate the world. But he couldn't be in all places at once so he needed capable and loyal men, those men would be the foundation that maintains order in his absence.

If Tomini wanted to he could use admin commands to do it in seconds, but then what? What would keep his empire from doing the same thing that the current Empire is doing to the villagers? He needed to show his future countrymen what he could not show the others in the old world.

"From today onward the distance extending 25 miles north, east, south and west is my domain" declared Tomini. The Villagers were terrified they thought there was a tyrant in front of them and Tomini knew this, he decided to ease their worries by casting a mass healing spell on the area of the village, to make sure that he was a good person. "Light attribute Grand Areal Heal" Tonie cast the healing spell.

"From today onward you are my people please send word to the empire that I will not take kindly to trespassers. Also please send the three strongest men to me. I will leave to the outskirts of town to build my manor and Miss Ardale please come to my manor in one hour" Tomini stated he began to float and fly away out of sight.

After reaching the outskirts of the village he began contemplating what style of the building he wished to summon "I know I'll summon a pagoda. Space Attribute Summon Building Maximise " A & tiered pagoda was created surrounded by 20-foot walls.

"Hello, Mr. Tomini whaa..." A female voice was heard. Tomini turned around and the voice matched a person it was Ardale "Is this your house??"

"Indeed step inside please" Tomini replied. Walking inside Ardale couldn't help but feel mesmerized by the imposing building. Everything inside was so clean and pristine. "I'm sure you've noticed how clean this place is id like to keep it that way you will be the maid for the house your tasks". Tomini was in a good mood.

"A maid? I can't be your maid I'm too hideous " it's not that she didn't want to work living her whole life as a village girl she worked hard every day, whether it's in the field or construction. She felt that if she was in Tomini's house she would stick out like a sore thumb she was covered with dirt from working on the farmland.

"Nonsense did you forget you said you'd do anything," Tomini said in a stern voice. "No, but are you sure?" Ardale replied to which Tomnini nodded his head "Yes on the fifth floor there is a bath go up and bath yourself I will bath after you." Ardale decided not to argue with Tomini any longer and walked to the 5th floor.

Opening the door to the floor she saw steam everywhere she saw the water was hot and was dumbfounded. She had never seen a bath with hot water taking off her clothes she moved into the bath. With the bathwater it felt to her as if all her stress was swept away "Mr. Tomini is a good person" She thought to herself.

Walking towards the bath Tomnini knocked on the door and spoke "When you are done three rooms from here is your room its marked "room 4" with your maid uniform in it. Take as long as you need in there" Tomini spoke.

"Hey, mister Tomini the healing spell was a 5th tier spell, right? I'm surprised you are so strong I've never heard of someone casting that level of the spell." Ardale asked

"Can you tell me more about this spell tiers?" Inquired Tomini

" There were nine tiers that we villagers knew about. The first three are inferior spells capable of using the elements to attack and defend or for example to cook a meal with the "Fire Attribute". The lower tiers are what most people would be able to achieve." answered Ardale.

"They created a ranking system for spells? Having permanent death had a big influence without being able to respawn it meant people would have to kill higher level creatures to raise their level but also it increased the risk of dying." thought Tomini to himself.
