More Fabrication

The entire DoA office plunged into silence as everyone stopped moving. They could only see that the manager was being devoured by the tentacles. His body was melting in the strands and seemed to be absorbed by the tentacles.

Everyone was trying their hardest to move, but they couldn't even move one muscle. They were so frightened by what was happening yet they were powerless to do anything.

The monster completely absorbed the branch manager and retracted its tentacles. He turned around and looked at all the other users and staff members.

" Feel blessed that you are going to be devoured by the almighty ruler. Your consciousness will be absorbed into mine and you will live on inside me."

A gloomy atmosphere surrounded everyone present in the building. The shadows started coming out of his body like tentacles and enveloped the entire hall. Every tentacle reached a user and pierced their skull.

There was no scream nor an utterance. The entire hall was silent as a cemetery. The only sound that could be heard was from the footsteps of the monster. It walked to the end of the hallway, with each step it took the users started to melt and got absorbed by those tentacles. By the time it reached the end of the hallway, the entire place was devoid of life.

The front gate of the DoA office opened and a user got out looking satisfied. He got through the checkpoint and started walking on the sidewalk, as he approached a dimly lit alley, his body changed shape and turned into Willam's body. He shook his body and cracked his neck.

" August Dalton and Nile Brooks, huh?" He smiled and started walking.

*****

August was experimenting the entire evening. He perfected the A rank artifact making process and started to simulate more variants. He wanted all the data he could get from these experiments.

By the time he finished, it was already dinnertime. He went back up to his room and ate dinner, and talked to his sister and mother about their day. There was not much going on in their lives anyway. It was a typical and normal life of any family. He thought if he could keep this up forever. There was a serious threat coming and it might change the future of the society. He might have to reveal his secrets to them at some point, but he wanted to enjoy this tranquil life a little more.

He got back to his room after finishing dinner. The progress on the transformation of the house was going as usual. It required a couple more days to finish. He decided to take a nap fr now. He hadn't slept for a week, so the mental fatigue was building up. Even though it wouldn't affect him that much, he decided to rest for a bit.

' System, notify me if anything changes.'

[ Understood ]

With that august closed his eyes and fell asleep.

It was eleven o'clock at night and all the members left the guild. Fatty's assistant was preparing to leave the guild after organizing the documents. When she was preparing to leave, she saw the branch manager of the DoA come in.

" Sir, why did you come here at this time ?"

The assistant has a weird look on her face. The branch manager of DoA was coming to a small guild in the non-office hours, this was really unexpected, to say the least.

" I am looking for Mr. Brooks, did he leave the guild ?"

" Yes, he left an hour ago. Tell me if it's urgent, I will notify him tomorrow." The receptionist spoke.

" It's alright, I will talk to him on my own." He said smilingly.

" But, in this hour.."

*GAAK*

A tentacle pierced her head and just like the people in the DoA office, her body got absorbed by the tentacles. The monster transformed itself into the receptionist and went inside the guild.

The next morning August woke up and went to the lab.

' system, create defensive blueprints for the house. I want the whole house to be covered. '

[ Simulating defense mechanisms…]

..

..

While the system was running the simulations, he looked at the map. They have already cleared two red zones in a week. The levels of both fatty and Daisy increased a lot. Fatty almost reached A rank, and Daisy was approaching S rank.

If he could make some artifacts to boost their progress, that would really speed things up. He prepared two batches of nanobots and tried to make some artifacts for them. He took out two beast cores that will suit them best. One was an earth attribute and the other was a poison attribute.

' Start the synthesizing process, for the first batch add the earth attribute and poison for the second.'

[ Starting fabrication…]

[ Progress… 1% ]

[ Progress.. 2% ]

The two batches of nanobots were being merged with their respective cores. August had practiced it enough so now it was easier for him to build the A rank artifacts. The system also received a lot of data so the process was smooth and automated quite a bit.

After the process finished, he looked at the newly made artifacts. He had already given the blueprints for the shape, and this was similar to their current artifacts but with little tweaks.

He looked at the artifact information.

[ Sanarae's Hammer]

[ Type : Artifact ]

[ Grade : A ]

[ Attack : 98 ]

[ Defense : 89 ]

[ Accuracy : 91 ]

[ Durability : 2000/2000]

[ Weight : 6 ]

[ Skills : Shatter(A), Mold(A), Fracture(A) ]

[ Level requirement : 50 ]

[ Rayzlle's Roscoe]

[ Type : Artifact ]

[ Grade : A ]

[ Attack : 100 ]

[ Defense : 71 ]

[ Accuracy : 99 ]

[ Durability : 2000/2000]

[ Weight : 3 ]

[ Skills :Toxin Penetration(A), Curve path (A), Split(A), ]

[ Level requirement : 50 ]

Looking at the skills, August nodded his head. These were really good skills that were compatible with them. He specifically designed the blueprints, so that they would match their fighting style. They would definitely give them a huge advantage in fighting.

After he was done with making all the artifacts he got ready to go to the guild. They needed to clean up all the red zones by the end of the month.

He looked at the progress of the reconstruction and the defense simulation one more time, then he teleported himself to the guild.
