Chapter 192: Palace Walls
When James saw the differences between the races again, he remembered that Abby had taught him not to underestimate any race.
His ancestor Abby had been right. James had seen the difference in power status between other races. Still, James knew that with his abilities and other trump cards at his disposal, he could kill anyone at any time, so he was still stronger, but he had been crushed in status. Therefore it was showing that the levels weren't everything once more.
By the time he had cleared the place where the construction of the walls was to begin, he had completely forgotten that he was busy giving his approval to the talk about the length of the walls.
"Master James, we ask you."
James, who had suddenly been roused by a voice from Narbeth, turned round. Looking at the drawings on the scrolls, he said, "This length is good, we will need way more mines than a wall to be built for almost 70,000 square metres, but this is the length required for the yetis, or ice giants, as you call them." and approved the project.
Even with all the ore they had, they would still have to fortify an area as big as the Sun Empire's massive palace, but it was clear that it would not be a good idea to do it all at once, which is why Luke seemed to have an idea.
"Young Master James, isn't the palace you told us about, with all its gardens and beauty and training grounds and everything, just that big?"
When James shook his head at Luke's question, Luke began to speak again.
"If we use the minerals we have extensively, we can enclose the village with walls of the same length to include the agricultural areas. This will allow us to spend more time on the next mining operation."
When Luke's words were heard, James waited for a few seconds and then asked, "It might look like different tiered zones, how do we solve that problem?"
After James' question, Luke shook his head and then said, "We can make a section with four entrances, we can create a huge section in the middle of the village where we will build a castle or palace by dividing the walls, we can have free space since we will cut the wooded areas and plant them in the distant areas."

James smiled as soon as he heard these words and then said, "A palace that stands behind the walls and extends away from the same walls? I like this plan." He said and indicated that he gave his approval.
After these words, all the positions were withdrawn, the signal flags were moved to an area well back, to the agricultural fields outside the village, and James began to clear that area.
The rampart frames, made of the minerals the dwarves had brought from their own villages, were already in place. After James had melted the snow with his flames destroyed the underlying ice layer and dried the soil, the rock mixture that would stabilise the ground to some extent was poured on the ground.
After waiting for it to dry, the small frames, which were the first part of the wall, started to be erected one by one.
At that moment James felt that someone was watching them from the distant woods, something was watching them. After calling Ariel to his side, he took Miracle out of his inventory and ordered her to protect Ariel, telling Ariel to keep an eye on the woods.
With that, Ariel and Miracle entered the forest.
As the blue-haired woman entered the forest, she realised that what James had said was true, someone was indeed watching her and Miracle.
Ariel, who had begun to look around cautiously, took out her knives from her inventory, raised her eyes towards Miracle, who was sitting on her head, and then said, "If you hear or see anything, tell me directly."
"Okay, Grandma." Miracle said, and with the seriousness of a child, Miracle started to check the surroundings and tried to hear the sounds with her constantly moving ears.
After only half a minute, Miracle said in a low voice, "They're to our right, Grandma"' and Ariel, hearing this, suddenly turned to the right and ran.
After a few seconds, Ariel encountered several beings and saw the silence and fear on their faces.
"Pixies..." Ariel said. She realised at that moment that there was no reason to fight.
"Please don't hurt us, my whole tribe has come to ask for help..." said the largest of the Pixies, almost forty centimetres tall.
"We came here to spy on you because we thought you were enemies, if you want help, why didn't you come and ask?" Ariel said, and the female pixie who heard this tilted her head and replied, "The demi-demons are big, we are afraid..."
"Haha...You can come with us, there is not much to be afraid of, pixie spells will help us a lot." Ariel said, and with that, the pixies were happy, but they were still afraid.
Ariel smiled as she saw the gaze fixed on Miracle, the little she-dragon, and then asked, "Miracle, honey, would you please change into human form?"
When the little girl Miracle nodded her head and transformed into human form, the pixies looked at the little dragon transformed into human form with admiration and hugged her.
Almost two hundred pixies were flying around and some of them were hugging Miracle.
With that, it became clear that there was no danger and they returned to the village under construction.
The demi-demons, elves and dwarves were shocked.
"I thought you were extinct, oh dear pixies," Narbeth suddenly said, surprise written all over his face.
James smiled when he saw the pixies and went to the eldest one and said, "My name is James, nice to meet you, you must be the leader."
Pixie shook her head and held her face with an embarrassed look and then landed on James' shoulder and then waited there.
When James thought he had made new friends and smiled, he saw a message in front of him that he had never expected and that made him tremble from his toes to every hair on his head.
[Nemesis looks like it's going to kill you, James.]
Moros played the role of the bad messenger again.
