My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 202

"The Colony even looks like it’s made out of stone," Kisha remarked as she and Duke marveled at the spectacle before them.

"Master, it was indeed made from stone that my worker bees carved out with their forelegs," Bell explained through their mind link, causing Kisha to choke a little on her own saliva. It was a testament to the incredible strength and how sharp the scarlet bees’ forelegs.

"Carved out! Carved out!!!" A cheerful, excited voice echoed in Kisha’s head, distinct from 008 and Bell’s. Her head instantly whipped to the side where Zeus was excitedly spinning around, almost as if chasing its own tail.

Kisha was surprised to hear the voice inside her head, especially when she realized it came from Zeus. ’Could it be because I can now see Zeus’ status window under my pet panel?’ she wondered. ’If so, does that mean I can mind-link with Zeus like I do with 008 and Bell?’ Her thoughts raced, but since she had upgraded 008 herself, she couldn’t ask for confirmation. Still, it seemed plausible to her.

Once she made the connection, Kisha stopped dwelling on it. She and Duke admired Bell’s growing colony, then turned their attention to the forest, which now housed a variety of trees—sandalwood, acacia, agarwood, African blackwood, and more. Each tree alone was a treasure trove.

If she had secured this space before the apocalypse, Kisha thought, she could have become a tycoon, selling everything produced in this territory. All she would have needed was capital, whether big or small, to earn endless money.

"This is a treasure trove!" exclaimed Duke as they passed several African Blackwood trees while following Bell.

"Exactly what I was thinking," Kisha replied, scanning the surroundings and realizing the forest’s purpose: to cultivate valuable and expensive trees, rather than host wildlife. Not having seen any animals reinforced this conclusion for her.

But for Bell to settle in the forest also means that Kisha could potentially raise her own wildlife if she wanted. It seemed feasible now to have more than one pet like Bell, with plenty of space for them to stay and it seems her system could also accommodate more.

After passing the entire mountain where the forest lay, they arrived at a small pond. Kisha frowned slightly, noting that the only inhabitants seemed to be the ornamental fishes she had taken from Duke’s place—a pond as large as a swimming pool.

"Bell, are you sure this is the pond?" Kisha communicated through their mind link, sensing Bell’s confusion.

"Yes, master. This is the pond," Bell buzzed its wings as it affirmed.

Kisha’s confusion deepened, her brow furrowing. "What’s wrong?" Duke asked, noticing her concern.

"Hmm, let me think for a moment. I feel like I’m missing something here," Kisha replied, then accessed the territory’s interface. Upon examining the aquatic animals, she determined they weren’t dead but might be located elsewhere. She then mind-linked Bell again. "Do you know of any larger body of water nearby?"

There was a sudden silence from Bell, indicating it was deeply pondering the answer. Then, its wings began to buzz excitedly. "YES!!! Master, there’s an enormous lake at the foot of this mountain. The lake is several times larger than this pond, and beyond that, there’s even a sea!" Bell explained eagerly.

Whenever Bell had the opportunity to explore the space, it always took the chance to roam around, becoming more familiar with its layout than Kisha.

"SEA?!" Kisha exclaimed with wide eyes, her voice carrying surprise and excitement. The revelation of having a sea in her territory space was astonishing to her. ’Doesn’t that make my territory space a complete island?’

"What sea?" Duke asked, his curiosity evident. He had encountered many extraordinary phenomena with Kisha, so the idea of a sea in her domain didn’t shock him. Yet, it still filled him with a sense of wonder. He couldn’t shake the feeling that his wife was truly formidable and otherworldly.

I’ll earn more points and see if we can buy a spiritual beast friend for you, okay?" Kisha wanted to comfort Bell, tempted to pat its head, but she hesitated, mindful of Bell’s delicate antenna. Before she could decide, another voice interrupted their moment.

"Master! Me Friend! Bell friend!!" Zeus interjected eagerly into their conversation. It sat up straight, front paws in the air, tongue lolling out like a silly dog. Despite its playful demeanor, Zeus’s size and powerful presence were evident— almost as tall as Duke with large paws capable of killing zombies with ease.

Seeing Zeus concerned, Bell’s gloomy mood immediately lifted, and it flipped in the air happily. "Right, Zeus is my friend now too! And with Master here, I won’t ever be sad again!" Bell exclaimed with newfound enthusiasm.

With a gleeful mood, Bell led Kisha and Duke to the foot of the mountain and to the edge of the enormous lake. The water was pristine, free of pollution, and so clear that they could almost see the lake’s bottom. Its depth was difficult to gauge. Freshwater fish gracefully swam within, unperturbed by Kisha’s presence, almost as if recognizing her as the owner of their newfound home.

Unable to resist, Kisha dipped her hand into the cool water, marveling at its clarity and the serene environment it provided for the aquatic life. _{ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom}

’Aw! Don’t act too cute, or I’ll feel guilty eating you up,’ Kisha thought to herself as she gazed happily at the plump fishes in the water. However, the vastness of the lake made it impossible to see all the diverse species she had put in, adding to the mystery and allure of her expansive territory.

If Kisha wanted to relax and fish, she could enter her space. Feeling lazy, she could simply procure livestock or food from her territory via the interface, which was incredibly convenient. Going into the territory was more about the experience than necessity. However, farming posed a different challenge since she really needed to do it on her own.

She likely needed people to oversee her livestock and aquatic animals, ensuring proper breeding and minimizing territorial disputes. The adaptation of diverse fish to their new environment was another concern she wasn’t well-versed in, making oversight crucial for their well-being.

All she knew was that her animals and fishes were all plump and looking juicy.
