"I don't know about that, it seems a bit surreal for that old man to simply die out of old age, at least that's the opinion I and many others have," Drayce said with a slight smirk.

"I understand why, but some of my teacher's students have managed to reach Sainthood, and yet he still remained a Transcendent, stubborn in his belief," Jack said with a shake of his head, remembering just how many times some of the others students tried to talk some sense in his master, only to fail miserably.

"With him reaching Sainthood, it will probably only take him the fraction of the time other Saints need to reach the pinnacle, before once again stopping," Eldar stated, fully certain of his words.

Those thoughts were not only his but the thoughts of many who knew just what kind of a monster Musashi was. To reach the pinnacle of Transcendent, it only took him a short 24 years, while others would need centuries to do so.

"But weren't you supposed to be unable to leave the planet?" Reign asked Jack who shook his head.

"Not fully, during normal circumstances, we are to stay here until everything is finished, but thanks to how good everything is going, plus the fact it was my master that has reached Sainthood, the Alliance sent a replacement for me, at least during my leave."

"She will stay here with Eldar till I get back, and the system won't penalize me for leaving my post."

"Once you become a Transcendent, I can recommend you to my master, I'm sure he will be glad to take you as a student," Jack told Reign, but in his mind, he was fully determined to tell his master about Reign, and the monstrous talent the boy had right away. Even though his master usually took on Transcendents as students, he did take some who were in the leveling realm before.

It was not only because he believed that Reign's talent was high enough for his master to take interest in him, but also because Jack himself was afraid that even before Reign reached the Transcendent realm, he wouldn't be able to teach him anything. He would feel humiliated at that point, as one of the students of Musashi himself, and one of the most talented ones, he wanted to keep his pride, which he would do if he managed to get his master to personally teach Reign, or perhaps some of his seniors.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, my replacement is also arriving at the same time, so be there to meet her, it's not polite if she arrives and doesn't get to meet you or the others," Jack told Reign who simply nodded at him.

Even though neither one of them had formally said so, Reign already considered Jack to be his teacher, at least half of a teacher. Not only did Jack show him and the others how to sense mana back in the past, but he had also taught him much about swordsmanship and even the [ Severing ] series.

He would always keep Jack's words in his mind.

"Wolf and the others are at the top of the wall, you should join them," Eldar told Reign who took it as his sign to leave. Nodding at the three men, he made his way to the wall and took a small elevator to the top.

The wall itself was massive, standing at over 100m tall. The sheer size of the wall was enough to make anyone think it was impenetrable, which was the idea since it was meant to keep Tier IV monsters at bay.

Standing at the top of the wall, he could see the entire valley that stretched for hundreds of meters in front of the wall. The fog, the mountains, the rays of the sun coming from above the mountains, all looked seemingly magical. For those that had no idea just how dangerous the depths of the mountain range were, they would think it was a magical place full of beauty and wonder.

Reign knew better, however. He knew that beyond the beautiful exterior, the depths were a place of sheer horror. The powerful monsters, the lack of color, and the suppression of the fog were things that could keep even strong Tier IV beings away.

Upon looking around, Reign was able to quickly find Wolf and the others who were staring at the wall and the ground below it. They were talking, seemingly making plans for something.

Laura had also arrived, she had left the territory a bit after Reign, and upon seeing how he was talking with Eldar and the others, she made her way to the top of the wall, fully aware that he would join them soon.

"Yo." Shadow greeted Reign with a fist bump as the others all smiled at Reign.

They were talking about modifying the wall a bit. It was something a couple of players, mostly the builders had recommended.

The 'Builder' was a class that the players that didn't fight had. Those good in construction and with some abilities that could help them in that regard, such as earth manipulation, wood … would take the class, which allowed them to build things using the skills they were given.

Even though Reign could build buildings and houses for them all, it wasn't that cheap, and they all looked very basic. There were a bunch of empty buildings in the territory, but for the players that wanted to customize their homes or headquarters for their group, they would look for builders who were able to even install defensive arrays and turrets in the property.

The builders had also participated during the siege of Doncaster, staying far away from danger, they constructed turrets that would attack the monsters from afar, giving support to the players.

There were also Mechanics present there. After Shadow's arrival from the planet, he had gone to for his first evolution, the class had become open for everyone, and some people, interested in how it functioned, chose it, some had even switched to it.

Classes were made more as a guide to how players could fight, allowing those that weren't very talented to quickly get some skills and point them in the right direction.

Those that chose the class were able to use mana to build different kinds of machines and trinkets. Some were defensive trinkets that could save someone from a lethal blow, others were powerful offensive tools that could be consumables and incredibly powerful or could be used until they were destroyed.

They could also create different kinds of machines that they could imprint with their own mana and utilize during battle. Mechanics that did that were similar to necromancers, only without the need to utilize corpses.

Shadow had seen many incredible sights on that planet, even cities that could move around as they were made on a massive construct that multiple Mechanics had created. The things a mechanic could do were almost endless, and Shadow had even been a bit perplexed by it at first.

After all, many of the things he had seen were a bit similar to Earth and how the electric appliances, cars, and similar things functioned. Still, because the constructs and machines were something that utilized mana to be used, the system allowed them to exist and did nothing to them, contrary to how it was for Earth.

It seemed that the system was not against technology and technological advancement completely, but they had to be connected to mana in some way, otherwise, it wouldn't be allowed. 

At least that was what Shadow and the rest believed after he told them everything about the place.

The builders, together with other players, were in charge of reinforcing the wall and making turrets while the mechanics were doing something else. Many machines could be seen on top of the wall, as well as on its sides. Most of the machines looked like spiders, and they were making small hollow areas, as well as helping the players out with reinforcing the wall.

The hollow areas would be where the machines would be placed in. The mechanics and builders were cooperating for this large project, wishing to make the wall a lot sturdier and safer.

By placing an array all over the wall, and powering it up, they wanted the machines to be self-sufficient and able to get out and fix the wall up if it was damaged. The mechanics could imprint a couple of commands that the machines would follow before leaving them here, only to be activated by the array once they were needed.

The builders had also proposed a gate to be made. Wolf and the others were currently looking at the proposal and thinking about it. Creating a large gate in the middle of the wall wouldn't be easy. They would first have to make a large hole, but carefully, so as to not damage the rest of the wall.

The gate itself would need to be sturdy enough, without being powerful enough to withstand the attacks of powerful Tier IV monsters, it would be futile to place it there as it would become a big weakness of the wall.

They had the materials to potentially build such a large and powerful gate, but what was in question was whether the builders were able to make it, even with the materials, one needed to be proficient enough, as well as powerful enough to make use of them correctly.
