My Succubus Harem System-Chapter 215 - Miracle of Life

Fifty million from the first mining operation. This fact was still bouncing around in Ryan's head, after all, there were still several gigantic chains of magical iron on the surface of the flying islands. When you added up the value of this material with the gigantic crystals of pure concentrated mana, the value tripled.

<Isn't there a chance that magical iron will end up being cheaper? You have control of production, but there's no guarantee that the world will need such large quantities> Nyx said, as she floated over Ryan's head.

Shaking his head from side to side, he denied it. 'That's impossible, magical iron is an indispensable resource for most magical processes. Both levitation platforms and building doors and barriers use magical iron, the more the better.

Ryan was also considering an important factor: most of this type of item was only obtained from portals. The difficulty of mining this type of item, coupled with the quick time it takes to remove it, meant that production remained low in the competition.

Crossing his arms, a doubt arose in Ryan's mind: 'Opening a portal to the second world isn't very difficult, Sylvanna is an exemplary mage, but it still doesn't make sense for her to be the first to achieve this feat.

The possibility of the guild having access to the second world was something that had Ryan worried, this thought had already appeared in his mind a few times, but without a clear answer it was better to put it aside.

*Sigh

"I need to talk to Alexandra," he said, as he looked at the horizon. Taking a deep breath, Ryan returned to walking around the island. Rin had already returned to the first world to check on the purchase of the magical iron.

In her absence, Ryan remained mapping the magic iron on the main island. A few meters in front of the village of Sunset there was a dense forest with dozens of gigantic rocks.

A quick analysis showed that they weren't rocks at all, just dozens of tons of magical iron. Some were oxidized, others were full of moss, but there was no doubt that they were such a difficult ore to find.

Getting those purple rocks to the center of the village was easy enough, Ryan asked Brigitte and Pharah for help, which made it even easier. By creating a platform of ice, he made those stones slide into the village. The sound of those items passing close to the village startled some of the peasants, who looked curiously at what was happening.

"Is Master Ryan carrying stones?"

"He's with the craftswomen, it must be some building material"

"Our master is working so hard for us"

When Ryan finished his work, there were at least twenty billion gold coins in magical iron near the portal.

"I want you two to make some applications with this, first I'll need three floating platforms. One to go down into the forest and the other two to move between the side islands, when you're finished I need you two to make a sewage drainage system and taps."

The two nodded and got to work. The idea was to create a method of locomotion for those who can't fly, as well as improving the standard of living in the village. Ryan knew that this task would be simple for the two.

Meanwhile, Ryan flew towards the crystal lizard barn. Arriving at the island, he was surprised by what he saw. One of the lizards had already laid more than twenty eggs, which meant that they would soon have their first culls. These animals could grow even faster, which would make it much easier to sell their hides along with the magical iron.

"What Nyx said is right in a way... If I release too much iron, we'll have problems with the price. The leather will help regulate these casualties" he said aloud.

<Hoh... So I was partly right?>

"Yes"

- I didn't know you had such advanced notions of economics, master -

"I'm studying a bit more with Kyouko," he said confidently.

Ryan then gave the lizards some mana crystals, put in a water crystal to supply them for another day and used Eternal Garden to collect the animals' feces. With the help of the plants, he put the waste underground where the plants would use it as fertilizer.

'I need to have more sex with Ellen, her nature skills are coming in very handy'

<Wouldn't it be better to bring them here?

Shaking his head, Ryan agreed. "I want to bring them all to the village, but only when the place is ready"

<Well, now they're living in the apartment.

"Yes, it's not difficult to find a moment to talk"

After taking care of the lizards, Ryan flew to the other side of the island. Where his office would soon be. The island was empty and, compared to the lizards' island, rather bleak. The place was quiet and vast, and somewhat reminiscent of the island of Sunset Village before it was inhabited.

* Pio * Pio * Pio * PIo *

As soon as Ryan's ears caught this sound, his eyes began to shine with happiness. Running towards the barn, Ryan found a small chick struggling to get out of its egg. The creature had black feathers with a purple glow and skin that was as dark as obsidian, its two bright blue eyes shone in the reflection of the light as the little bird tried to get out of its egg.

"Easy buddy, I'll get you out," said Ryan, who carefully broke a bit of the egg and pulled the bird out.

* Pio * Pio *

Taking a few steps back, he retreated as he watched the animal's first steps. But a few seconds later, the creature started running after him.

"He's following you!" Said Nyx, who appeared in her physical form just to play with the bird.

"He's very cute!" Said Lux, who also appeared in her physical form to stroke the little bird. The two of them were trying to get closer to the bird, but every time they got a little closer it would run up behind Ryan.

"Maybe he thinks you're his mommy," said Ayumi, who was standing at the entrance to the barn.

"His mom?" Ryan replied confusedly, looking down, he saw that little creature running its head over his leg as it walked carelessly on its little legs.

Crouching down, he picked up the bird. "It's carnivorous, it can probably be fed small insects...", looking at Nyx he nodded "Tell one of the maids I'll need some fishing larvae.

"Come on! I wanted to play with him more!" Said the succubus, who began to throw all her body weight down as she flew forward with a face of defeat.

"I'd love to help, but I don't have wings," said Ayumi, who could only get around with the help of Ryan's presence.

Lux sighed, "I can do it," she said, and then the angel girl flew off to the main island.

"Have you decided on a name for him yet?" Ayumi asked, as she ran her hand over Ryan's back.

* Pio * Pio * Pio * Pio *

Turning his face slightly, he stared at that bird. "I don't know, he's an obsidian bird with fire powers. So maybe Magma?"

Nyx raised her chest and shouted "Flint!".

"Oh, that's a good choice," said Ayumi, who started laughing at Ryan's unexpected reaction.

* Pio * Pio * Pio * Pio *

Nodding his head, he said "Then it'll be flint".

Now that the first bird had hatched, Ryan was seriously considering keeping the other birds inside the village. As well as making it easier to get around, these creatures could be trained to help defend the island in the event of an attack.

After a few minutes of waiting, Lux returned with an open can of worms. "Here! These poor souls are trapped inside a tiny can, I had to open it to give these helpless creatures one last ray of sunshine," said the angel girl.

* Pio * Pio * Pio * Pio *

Lux's pure manner always surprised Ryan.

'If Lux were a human, she would surely be crowned a saint,' he thought.

Then, for the first time, Flint had his meal. Ryan squeezed the worms with his hand and placed them in front of his beak.

One peck after another, the little creature began to move even more, as if it were dancing with excitement. Before long, half the can of worms had been devoured by the little winged beast. And with that came an unexpected smell.

The little bird started shaking its head from side to side, until the sound of poop coming out of its buttocks startled the two girls standing next to it.

"Flint!" shouted Nyx angrily.

* Pio? *

"That's normal for a puppy," said Lux, who gave her sister a disapproving look.

* Pio * Pio * Pio *

Looking at the two fighting, Ryan gave a sideways smile. "I could really use some of that slow life."
