Although the two initially disliked each other, they have now been companions for over ten years.

Even so, I still make sarcastic remarks to the other person.

"It's true that I feel somewhat lost."

Finn chuckled, "But I have no intention of changing my mind. Even if Orario reforms, I will always have a place there."

"You're probably more confused than I am."

"After all... your concern for that Demon King is a bit excessive. Is this some kind of old tree blossoming again?"

Riveria: "#"

"I'm still very young for an elf, and Ming Ge is indeed very powerful, so it's only natural for me to admire him."

Riveria suppressed her anger at being outmaneuvered and calmly said, "Isn't it natural for a young girl to like 'heroes'?"

"Oh, an eighty-four-year-old girl."

Finn chuckled.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with a sharp, electric light.

Teasing and bantering with each other is a typical daily routine for the three leaders of Loki Familia.

It wasn't just Finn; many people were confused, but life goes on.

Although Orario's development speed is too fast, making it a little hard to keep up, as Riveria said, as long as it's developing in a positive direction, it's a good thing.

Many adventurers come to Orario with dreams in their hearts, their greatest aspiration being to become heroes.

But few people can do it; most endure the harsh realities of the world and choose to succumb.

Now, Orario has lost the Dungeon, the place of adventurers' calamities and dreams, but gained a hero and a king.

The lower realm will then ascend like a rocket. In the gods' billion-year-old, dulled perception, they will find that in less than the time it takes to take a nap, humanity will already be able to set foot in the stars.

The most basic things have already appeared.

Orario Inner City, Second Floor of the Babel Tower

Originally, the Babel Tower had public facilities such as bathhouses, treatment rooms, and money exchange offices on the second and third floors; however, since the Dungeon has been largely discontinued, the second floor has been converted into a conference area.

Meanwhile, Ming Ge was having a meeting with the forging clan.

All the forging-related clans in Orario that could unite were gathered together, including their chief god.

"This is... the future of humanity?"

Chun weighed the magic stone in her hand and asked doubtfully, "Although it's different from the magic stones of monsters, does this thing really qualify?"

"Of course they're different. The energy in this magic stone is directly usable, while the magic stone itself requires secondary processing."

Ming Ge said, "For human civilization, energy is the most basic and most important thing."

With that, Ming Ge installed the magic stone onto a fan.

Turn on the switch, and a gust of cold air blows out.

"Fan, heater, washing machine, tape recorder, stove."

"Refrigerators that can store food, washing machines that automatically clean clothes by rotating, video recorders that record sound, and so on."

Ming Ge spoke, she took out these items one by one.

"Energy is the core of these items, and mastering magic is equivalent to mastering the source of energy."

Ming Ge explained, "These are just practical applications that can improve the quality of human life."

"If applied to military purposes, given sufficient quantity, it would have the same effect when used on weapons."

"Even an ordinary person can defeat a high-level adventurer as long as they have a weapon."

Hearing Ming Ge's explanation, everyone couldn't help but marvel.

Just by using these household gadgets, one can elevate their quality of life by more than one level.

As for military applications... they thought of the legends of the Rakia Kingdom from a thousand years ago.

Rakia, wielding the Crozzo's Magic Sword, shattered mountains and burned seas, leaving almost nothing but barren land in his wake.

Possessing both the power to rewrite human destiny and the power to destroy the Earth's ecosystem, this is the reform initiated by Ming Ge.

It was also humanity's first step.

On the other hand, many things in this world are actually from the 20th century, or even the 21st century.

Orario had an underground pipeline system thousands of years ago for transporting water resources and drainage, and even had sewers.

The entrance to the man-made maze on Daedalus Street is near the sewers.

Its ability to remain immortal for a thousand years is also due to magic.

Combining the concepts of magic and technology, it achieves rapid development in an unexpectedly simple way.

"Alright, remember, this technology must not be transmitted outside of Orario."

Ming Ge said, "Only those who sign a contract will be allowed to learn the techniques."

Ming Ge took out the contracts, which were manufactured using the latest printing technology, along with the core technology, and distributed them to everyone present.

The contract is very detailed, but it does not restrict its dissemination within Orario.

In reality, the Magic Network Ming Ge built was sufficient to monitor the entire Orario, making it impossible for any spies outside to obtain any important information.

His Magic Network has already spread throughout Orario via the Orario lines.

It includes an information transmission network, so telephone communication functionality could be quickly achieved.

"Um?

Shortly after the meeting ended, Ming Ge received a message online.

"A member of the original Astraea...?"
