Soon, another week had passed.

Under the guidance of Little Fatty and the Quilboar, the monster town centered around Giant Bear Cave was finally established.

Otto named this new gathering place for monsters the Land of the Soaring Dragon.

The meaning of this name was quite obvious, as for the first time, he revealed his ambitions.

Naturally, Otto’s Monster Legion received the title of Soaring Dragon Legion as well.

He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but since learning the new name, Saru seemed to work even harder on a daily basis.

Even when the ogres brought back more monster families from the outside, there were no issues under Saru’s management, and everything continued to develop stably.

He managed everything from monsters’ daily lives to external military expansion in an orderly fashion.

This old lizardman had apparently become a qualified steward.

Thick wooden walls had been erected around the Land of the Soaring Dragon. These defensive fortifications were made from massive tree trunks inserted directly into the ground.

Towering arrow towers were also built alongside them. Though crude, they were practical and separated the inside from the outside world.

Of course, not all monsters were eligible to live within the walls.

The Gnolls and goblins were asked to live outside the walls of the Land of the Soaring Dragon and build their own dwellings.

The most miserable were the kobolds, who were kept in a different open space, completely losing their freedom and constantly at risk of being slaughtered.

On a daily basis, the goblins had to make more refined weapons for the Soaring Dragon Legion and tame wargs.

With the joint collaboration of the lizardmen and ogres, it only took a bit of effort for Saru to capture a whole pack of wolves for them.

If the goblins had deceived him, the old lizardman would teach them a lesson in cruelty.

Luckily, these goblins indeed had some skills, and a few wargs were already willing to accept being ridden for short periods of time.

These goblins proved their words with actions, saving their lives in the process.

At the same time, they won the right to live inside the walls, amidst the envy of other goblins.

If Otto had paid attention, he would have noticed that the leader of the goblins taming the wargs was that muscular, strong goblin.

The Gnolls now mainly focused on hunting, as there were many more territories and hunting grounds to cover that the lizardmen alone couldn’t handle.

The most special ones were the few Quilboar, who were the first of the later followers to be allowed to live within the walls.

Just as Otto had thought, the Quilboar could take on many tasks and brought a lot of knowledge the lizardmen had never known before.

For example, metal smelting—though crude, at least they could provide rare iron weapons for the Soaring Dragon Legion.

Otto and Sofia still lived in the Giant Bear Cave, which had also undergone significant changes.

The little girl asked the ogres to excavate a new room inside the cave for her.

The room was located right next to the entrance of the cave. She didn’t forget to create a small window for ventilation, and made a simple window that could be opened and closed from wood and animal skins.

At Sofia’s request, Ogre Little Fatty brought a large amount of wooden furniture, while the goblins made simple but practical and comfortable bedding from the original bear skin.

What made Otto somewhat amused was that the little girl had also added a wooden door to her room.

It seemed like the little girl had grown up, understanding the concept of privacy.

The weather today was nice, and Otto was basking in the sun at the entrance of the Giant Bear Cave, contemplating things related to the two adult dragons.

Suddenly, Sofia happily ran out of the cave, handing Otto a piece of green dragon scale.

This half of the scale looked familiar, and soon Otto remembered the situation when he first collaborated with Cassiopeia.

Isn’t this the dragon scale with the Green Dragon’s communication magic attached?

Back then, it was Otto who gave it to Sofia, thinking that it might come in handy someday.

And now, that time had come.

Sofia held her head high like a proud little rooster.

She stuffed half of the dragon scale into Otto’s ear, and then called Mega Fatty over. After riding the ogre mount about a hundred meters away, she took out the other half of the Green Dragon scale.

Soon, Otto felt a slight itch in his ear, and Sofia’s crisp, pleasant voice came through the half of the scale.

“Big Dragon, Big Dragon, can you hear me? Answer if you can hear me!”

Otto was a bit surprised but still tried to reply, “I can hear you. Have you learned communication magic?”

Sofia patted Mega Fatty’s head, and the ogre mount obediently ran back to Otto’s side.

The little girl jumped down from Mega Fatty and kicked the ogre’s shin. The latter responded with a goofy smile, and went back where he came from.

“A qualified errand boy!”

While Otto looked at the departing Mega Fatty and sighed, Sofia looked at him with some doubt. Sometimes, Big Dragon would say things she couldn’t understand.

Not wanting to fuss further, Sofia climbed onto Otto’s neck and took the half-scale out of his ear.

She then explained, “I broke the magic circle the Green Dragon carved on the scale and made some changes. Now, with this, we can get in touch with each other right away, no matter how far apart we are!”

Otto nodded, showing his satisfaction. This was indeed a very nice magic item.

If he had it before, he wouldn’t have had to search for Sofia like a headless fly.

Soon, Sofia began to explain the usage of this magic item.

“I injected magic power into it so even if you, Big Dragon, can’t use magic, you can still easily use it. However, the farther the communication distance, the faster the magic power is consumed.”

“What if the magic power inside is used up?”

The corner of Sofia’s mouth curled upwards as if she had been waiting for Otto to ask this question.

She giggled and said, “If the magic power is exhausted, it’s simple. Just find someone to inject more magic power, and then you can ask for my help, or Saru, or even Mega Fatty to help!”

When she mentioned Mega Fatty, Otto’s mouth twitched a bit.

He never expected that the ogre, whom he once didn’t kill on a whim, would learn the Fireball skill, transforming into an ogre mage.

Because of this, Sofia often used him as a joke, calling Otto a big idiot who was even worse than an ogre.

What frustrated Otto was that he really couldn’t learn magic.

However, Sofia’s changes recently were significant. She could often be seen experimenting with new magic spells in the open space outside their cave entrance.

The soft soil around it was filled with new pits dug up by the ogres.

These pits were created by Sofia’s newly developed magic spells, making the magic-less Otto envious.

Sofia stuffed the half-scale back into Otto’s ear, and at that moment, Saru came over.

“Your Majesty!”

The old lizardman kneeled respectfully before Otto, then continued, “The Mother of Thorns has sent a messenger. There is a lot of movement at the Sulfur Mountains, and it seems that the war is about to start again…”
