《Re: Globus Online (Completed)》Chapter 23. Building and the Fallen Structure.
Advertisement
Author - I'm just going to skip most of the building because I think everybody knows how building goes... It's very boring if a god helps build...
I wake up and see the girls aren't sleeping beside me and have wandered off.
I get up from the grass and walk down towards the city construction site.
Everything is quiet so I start slowly humming to myself not to feel so alone.
I walk around for a while and look up in the sky and see the sun coming up...
I look at the rising sun for quite a bit of time from the air until I see a chopper heading straight for us.
I fly towards the chopper and I go near the cockpit of it and fly next to it.
The chopper pilot stares at me flying with no assistance and then lands on the grass where every other chopper lands on.
The ramp to the chopper opens and scientists walk out of the chopper.
I go to greet the scientists but the moment they see me floating down to greet them they jump back and quite a few of them faint.
I wave to them and one of them steps up.
"Hello and forgive us, God Ethos, for our unannounced arrival. We also did not know we were coming here until two days ago. I am the Head Researcher of Unknown Beings and Technology, Ray Lakewell. Basically researching anything 'Alien' or 'Not from Earth'." (Ray)
"Hello Ray. It seems you already know of me... But who told you to come here?" (Ethos)
"Well... The president of USA did..." (Ray)
"And what do you want to do here?" (Ethos)
"To research the five different beings and you and the group you are with...?" (Ray)
I sigh and float around them.
"I will allow this... Except researching me or my small group. Our powers are not meant to be researched as humans wouldn't ever understand them as anything else other than 'Magic'.... Also, if they don't want to be researched you shall not forcefully try to take samples and things from them. I will kill you if I get even one complaint about you forcefully doing something." (Ethos)

"Understood!" (Ray)
"Good... I'm going to wake up everybody to start on the construction of the city..." (Ethos)
I fly up into the air.
"WAKE UP!" (Ethos while shouting)
My shout goes on for kilometers and probably reached a human settlement freaking them out...
The dragons wake up and then the Lamia the third is Nymphs and the fourth are Elves and Demons wake up last...
Good to know their order of waking up to one of the loudest shouts they possibly have heard...
The races gather up and I tell them we shall start the construction of the city and I also tell them about the researchers.
Quite a few of them were disgusted about the researchers being here but I also saw a few of them who were intrigued.
After that we started the construction and we finished the buildings for the Elves really quickly... And I mean... Very quickly.
It took us about five minutes to construct about five hundred of them at the same time because everybody was assisting.
I just looked how they built and supervised because I want them to get along better in this world...
At the middle of the day over half of the city is built and the only races who don't have houses yet are the Demons, Dragons and about half of the Nymphs.
We are building the city in five sectors, one for each race... And the representatives got a genius idea to put a huge statue of me in the middle of the city where all the crossroads link up and I'm facing the rising sun...
And the worst part is... They actually did it... All the races pitched in and finished my statue that is very detailed and made out of stone and Iron that was melted down by the dragons and then forged by the elves so it has this fancy look to it...
Right now I am looking at the races building the Nymph houses and three groups have started on the Dragon houses that have a small part but also a huge bedroom-like place for the dragons when they want to sleep in their normal forms.

I still haven't seen the girls today though... I wonder where they went...
I fly up into the air and look around to see and I see a beach and the girls are there... With bathing suits. Where in the hell did they get the bathing suits?
Oh wait... Two of them are goddesses... Yeah it makes sense now. They used creation magic...
I really like creation magic but I always use it too much and go overboard... Like that one time I wanted to just create a simple lake... It turned into the Grand Lake in the middle of the Steppes on Kuran.
I fly over to the beach that is about... A hundred or so kilometers away? I really like flying right now... And I really love that my eyes can see hundreds of kilometers away and spot any movement.
Now the only things missing is a red cape, a blue suit and laser eyes. Oh wait... I'm no superhero.. I'm a god... Being a god is better right?
I reach the girls in five minutes flying at low speed and then land slowly.
"Hello... I see you've been on the beach for a while.." (Ethos)
"Ethos! You finally got here!" (Kyra)
Kyra jumps out and hugs me.
"Sorry that I am late... I never got any notification about having to come here so I was supervising the construction of the city. It's over half done already... And my statue is slapped straight into the middle of it for some reason. Blame the representatives." (Ethos)
Aphrodite and Hera chuckle.
"Come here Ethos!" (Kyra)
Kyra drags me over to the ocean... One thing I haven't seen for a long time except the one time I flew above it and didn't care about it...
Kyra stops and looks over the ocean.
"Girls... I have something to say. I found an abandoned structure in the middle of a continent that seemed eerily suspicious to me. I want to know what it is so I must go there. Could you three stay here and look over the researchers who came today and the races?" (Ethos)
"Sure." (Aphrodite)
"No problem with me... You've done enough for them already." (Hera)
"If Aphrodite and Hera are staying I will stay too." (Kyra)
"Thanks. I'll be off then." (Ethos)
I jump up into the sky after Kyra lets go and then fly over to Australia in almost an instant.
I land infront of the structure and look at it...
I walk closer and walk inside it looking for clues but the only clue I find was... Traces of dark magic.
Faint but existing traces of dark magic going underground...
I use wind magic to blow the sand away and reveal a huge iron door leading underground.
I punch the door open and fall down the huge shaft until I fall through an elevator and land on the bottom of the shaft.
I balance myself and walk through the big door only to see a lot of technology and the trace of dark magic getting a lot stronger...
I use light magic to illuminate the area a bit and I see tons of black spots everywhere and blood is everywhere and I find four piles of corpses in the middle of the hallway...
What the hell happened in here?
I walk forward while looking around the hallway.
I send one of my lights to the end and find a huge blast door that could probably withstand a nuclear blast...
The thing is... It's charred and busted open... And the dark magic is coming from there...
I quickly look around the room and find nothing but blood, black spots of dark magic and dead bodies and tech.
Guess my only way forward is in through that...
Time to find out what the hell the humans have been doing here.
I bring all my lights back and walk through the blast door...
"What the..." (Ethos)

8 311Dungeons Are Bad Business
Vee Vales has been kicked out of his home and directed to make his own way in the world. Along with his friend Alforde Armorsoul, Vee travels to the city of Oar's Crest. Once a prosperous and well-to-do city, Oar's Crest has fallen into depression and disrepair. After finding a strange stone that takes up residence in a tattered top hat and introduces itself as Reginald, Vee and Alforde decide to open a dungeon in Oar's Crest to revitalize the city and, more importantly, make some fleurs. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: Dungeons are Bad Business (DABB) is a slow burn slice-of-life dungeon core litRPG citybuilder that's focused on the day to day experience of running a dungeon. There will be some action, but it won't be the focus of the story and Vee and his friends will usually overcome their problems with their minds and their pocketbooks instead of their weapons. Since I'm participating in the writeathon, I will probably be uploading chapters almost daily for the duration of the event. Thanks for reading!
