Chapter 90 Golden Pillar And Building The Estate With Knowledge From Another World.

Eros frowned.

"What is it?" Lady frostbite asked.

"Forgive me, lady frostbite, but i'll have to cut our meeting here!" Eros stood up to leave.

Immediately, she caught his hand, "please don't leave me!"

Eros turned to her and patted her head.

"Don't worry, you will find me when you are ready!"

He moved, Leaving the dream world and back to reality.

*Knock*Knock*Knock!* there was a knock on the door. However, Eros did not first attend to it.

In the real world, Lady frostbite laid on the floor, some of his yang energy still leaked from in between her legs.

Eros Cleaned her up and placed her at a corner.

Afterwards, he dressed up and proceeded to open the door.

Dan, still in his mask and costume was outside waiting for him.

he had been the person knocking on the door.

"what is it?" Eros asked.

"Granddad! Outside. Quick! you have to see this. Its a golden pillar of light from the sky."

"A golden pillar of light!?" Eros could not believe what he had just heard.

Dan led the way and he followed him out.

Outside in the far off distance, a long pillar of gold light touched the sky and the earth.

Eros watched this. He was not the only one.

There was also others, men and women that came out of their rooms to see this.

There pointed at it as many rumours went around.

The pillar of light resembled the same pillar of light that had gone into the sky when Dan had touched the anchor stone.

Although Dan had told Eros that the Pillar of light came from the sky, it was obvious to Eros that the Pillar of light went from the earth to the sky.

Eros was very sensitive to energy.

Even from where he stood, he could feel the strong primordial energy coming from the Golden pillar of light in the distance.

Eros took deep breaths in and out.

"Primordial energy," he muttered.

This was primordial energy.

He turned to Dan, "it seems another one has decided to show itself."

"Another one?" Dan asked.

However, he suddenly remembered, "an anchor stone!"

Eros nodded.

"Come boy! we are going home. There is much to prepare for."

Dan nodded and followed along behind him.

"Wait!" a voice called from behind. It was Lady frostbite's mother.

"What of my daughter?"

Eros turned about, "don't worry about her. She will wake up in a few hours time."

Eros carried Dan and the two masked men disappeared from sight.

...

It was deep in the night. The commotion of the golden pillar of light had settled.

This golden pillar of light was seen not just from the frostbite estate but from many other places within the Almace kingdom.

This included the Tate estate. However, once it settled down, everyone went about their business.

This gist of the Golden pillar of light would become gossip topic for the next day.

Everywhere was silent, and it was very early hours of the morning.

Eros and Dan sneaked into Eros's study through the window.

There had left without telling anybody and did not want to bring alarm to anybody.

However, the moment there got into the room, the soul lamps in the room where turned on.

Eros and Dan stood frozen in their positions.

On a sit in the center of the room was Butler Jimmy.

He had his wounded shoulder bandaged. There was a cup of tea in one hand and he sipped it gently.

"Its cold outside. I took the privilege of making some tea while waiting for both of you to come back. I take you have stories to tell."

Eros and Dan smiled as they removed their masks.

Jimmy was such a person. Even when he was injured and unwell, nothing happened in the manor without his awareness.

Eros and Dan joined him, and of course, Dan, excited about his adventure with his grand father had stories to tell.

.....

Early morning of the next day, Commander Half bra received yet another letter from a lightning crow during breakfast. Eros saw her look as she opened it.

"What is it?" He asked.

"My Commander has woken up!" she replied.

Eros got to find out that Commander half bra was not initially a commander amongst the red bra pirates, but was one of lieutenants under a different commander. Her commander had gotten seriously wounded, and their command had been split into smaller groups for the lieutenants to command.

Commander Full bra was also a lieutenant under the same commander.

Their commander had been injured, but she had now woken up from her coma. .

She insisted on leaving immediately.

Then again, she and the rest of her crew had stayed for far too long on Eros's shores and it was about time they left.

There was also still a summons for all captains of the Red pirate crew to meet and there was only so much time that Commander Full bra could cover for her.

Eros said his fare wells the same day.

But before they left, he gifted them some treasure to take back with.

Also, he gave Commander half bra a new sword.

Just like Dan's weapon, it was a soul weapon.

After farewells were said and gone, it was once again time for Eros to concentrate on his territory.

The issue of having soldiers in the Territory had been solved with Eros's suggestion of having a Guild in the territory.

At the moment, Ngozi, Xena and Carin were still in closed door cultivation.

Once they were out, forming the guild would be their task.

It was winter. Food for the estate had been secured as a result of the merchant guild under Victoria's rule that had now come to stay.

But what would happen after the Winter was over was a question on everybody's mind.

For this, Eros went out to the fields and personally felt the texture of the soil on his land.

Seeing and understanding the problem, he made out plans for a functional irrigation system that was being used in his former world.

Things such as farming, arts and crafts etcetera were subjects that were taught in detail to young schoolers in his former world.

Even though he ended up a psychologist and never needed to use such knowledge because of his occupation choice, the knowledge he had gotten from that time was not at all forgotten by him.

Such knowledge on farming practices such as shifting cultivation, mixed farming etcetera were valuable knowledge in this age and time.

He sat in his study drawing out plans in relation to the available land for farming in his estate.

However, even after hours of drawing plans, he was still not satisfied.

This was his land. Although it was not so big, it was still his.

Eros wanted to improve the lives of his people so far that it reached the level of comfortability of people in his former world.

Money was not an issue for him because of the treasure he had, but what if he was not around?

What if because of one thing or the other, he was sent yet again to another world?

He did not want this people here to suffer. He was their baron and he wanted only the best for them.

For this, he thought hard for a solution.

He thought hard for a method that would allow the estate to make its own money and function wit a private economy different from that of the kingdom.

Thinking thus far, he looked outside the window of his study.

Far off in the distance, he could see the shores and the boats on the waters. It was winter, but for many, activities were still ongoing.

Most of the citizens of the Tate Estate were either farmers or fisher men.

However, because of lack of sufficient strength, to deal with soul beasts, no one really went far off the reef area to fish.

Eros thought hard about this and many ideas came to his head, but without sufficient cultivation strength, the fishermen would not even be able to catch fish that would be considered very valuable.

Just then, there was a knock on his door.

"come in!" he answered.

Dan opened the door and walked in with a bowl of steaming hot soup.

"You have been working for a long time. I thought to bring something for your stomach. Like Penny says, one should not think on an empty stomach," Dan made a Penny impression with his fingers and Eros cracked a smile.

"Its Soul beast Catfish pepper soup."

"Hmmm! Eros nodded. He could see the look on Dan's face the moment he mentioned Penny's name.

Eros walked up to him and patted his head, "don't worry boy. we will get your sister back."

Dan nodded.

With everything that had happened so far, he trusted his granddad's words.

Eros sat to eat the food.

As he did, Dan watched.

However, only after taking a spoon of the soup, he frowned, and turned to Dan with a questioned look.

"I'm sorry! I couldn't make it like Penny does. The merchants did not bring enough salt and then Jimmy said we have to manage the one we have."

Dan's words suddenly rang a bell in Eros's head...
