Chapter 18

It has been three months since I arrived in this place, and I must say that I have made great progress. The first week is the hardest. I need to spend most of my mana reserve to heal many people at once.

Even Dany complained about my work as I did not have much time to play with her. I know that it was not an excuse, but I really wanted to free this place from all the diseases before playing with her every day.

After the first week is over, I can relax a little and play with Dany. Not only that, but I also train my magic.

Speaking of magic, I awakened a new type of magic. I got knowledge of Space and Gravity magic. I also get a spell from this awakens called 'Control Gravity". This spell lets me manipulate gravity in an area of my choice.

At the moment, my range is around forty centimetres in diameter and two-metre in height. Yeah, my range has the shape of a cylinder. It was not a massive range, but I knew that I could make it more powerful.

Not only that, but I also need to learn how to use the space part of my magic. With both space and gravity, can I make a black hole? I don't know. I hear a black hole has a massive gravitational pull.

Can I create the same effect?

With the space, can I create a portal to my previous world? Or does it need time? As far as I know, Space and Time are always together. Can I create a portal to my world with just space? Urgh, I guess I did not need to think about it for now.

Right now, I cannot even create a small portal without getting unconscious from mana burn. Mana burn is a phenomenon where I use too much mana at once and injure my mana core. If that happens, my mana core will automatically shut down, and that action will send a reaction to my brain that makes me unconscious.

Not only does it make me go unconscious, but it also hurts. It is like someone burning you from the inside.

"My prince, we have arrived."

I snap from my thoughts when I hear Ser Willem say something to me.

"We have arrived at the village."

The no-name village near the hidden docks is the place where many people decide to make a home. This place is also the place where I get my patient from. I can see many rundown buildings barely holding themselves together and many filthy things spread around the area.

"Now I know the reason why they keep getting sick. This place is a breeding ground for diseases."

"Sadly, these people cannot build a proper village, my prince. The only reason why they can eat is that you use your magic to make the land near the mansion so fertile that it only takes a week for the grain to be harvested."

"But it was a temporary solution, Ser Willem. I can only feed them from that place for another year before the land loses its fertility, and we need to wait for another three years."

"Then what is your solution, my prince?"

"We need to build new farmland. I can use my magic to make this land more fertile, but it will last forever, unlike the land near the dock. However, we need to make this place liveable first. We cannot have sick smallfolk to work, or they will die from working too hard while they are sick."

Sick individuals also were not very productive. I need a happy and healthy worker so the production can double up.

"We need a city planner. I did not know how to create a great and working sewage system."

"We can help you with that, healer."

I look at my back and see Bakir, the leader of the Thousand Hands Guild on this island.

"Really?"

"Aye. We have some people who know how to make a proper sewage system."

"Great! Tell them to create a plan right away. I will help them construct the sewage system."

"Thank you, healer. Your help will be greatly appreciated."

"Don't think about it. Anyway, tell me when they have finished planning. While they are planning, I will clean this place."

I put on my gloves and start to cast Prestidigitation.

~Two months later~

"Is it just me, or are there more people here than yesterday?"

"You are not wrong, my prince. There are more people in this village."

I look at the village that is slowly starting to become a town. At first, there were only about a hundred people in this place, but it increased to three hundred or so. Combine it with the people around the dock; the population has reached seven hundred people.

"Ah, it is lord Viserys and little lady Daenerys! My lord! Good morning."

I looked at the young woman I healed and smiled at her. Just like a flood, the other people start to surround me and give me their thanks. Some people even give Dany and me their products, like a stuffed bear for Dany or wine for me.

I don't know where they get the wine from.

"Thank you all for giving me this."

I give them a bright smile, and I can see Dany follow my example. I can hear them saying something about how I did not need to thank them or whatnot, but I'm not a dick. I will always thank the people who give me a gift.

I look at Dany and say.

"Dany, what do you need to say after you receive a gift?"

"Tank ou."

"Good girl."

"Hehehe"

She is so cute. I kiss her cheek and hear her giggle even more. I then look at the people in front of me and say.

"How are you guys? Everything okay?"

"Everything is doing fine, my lord." The oldest man decides to say, "Because of you, we can have a comfortable life and delicious food to eat. Of course, we also obey your order. We always boil our water and take a bath two times a day, every morning and before the sun sets."

I nod my head. It looks like building that bathhouse is the right thing to do. With the help of my runic magic, I can create a rune stone that has a hot water system.

It will heat up and clean the water inside the bath. This stone will make sure the water stays clean and warm. Other than the bathhouse, I also use my spell to make the soil fertile. With the help of the guild, I managed to get potato seeds and some rice seeds from Yi Ti.

That has become a staple food for the people on this island.

"I see. That's good."

This island still has many problems, but I will make sure this island can stand on its own two feet and become a place where Dany can grow happy and strong.
