"Alright! Machines done."Letting out a breath of dense mana, Dream relaxed and overlooked the new addition to the factory.In front of him were thousands of machines. Some produced synthetic diamonds from carbon utilizing ultra high pressures, some produced liquid helium for cooling using sterling engines that cooled the gases, and then those two machines sent their products toward the metallic hydrogen machines that produced tiny little chips of the stuff for use in fusion reactors.While no single machine could make a lot, multiply it hundreds of times over and those supply problems would be solved. Even now, Dream could see dozens of little metallic hydrogen chips being pumped out."Now, we've got our fuel. We just need the reactor."[I've got a good design.]"Then let's make it."Not wasting time, Dream got the schematic from Sophia and pulled some metals over.[This reactor is only about 10 inches in diameter. It'll go on your back, and its shell will be constructed out of the p
*Slap* *Slap*"Ugh... Huh?"Dream awoke from his nap as his cheek was tapped. When he opened his eyes, he could see Luna sitting next to him, looking down at him."Oh good. So my skills do work fine with you.""Huh?""Hehe, I saw your energy levels dip and came to check you out."Luna giggled as Dream sat up. Right now he was back in his human form dressed in sweats and a comfy jacket he liked the texture of. He stretched his neck as he felt his soul."You healed me?""Mhmm. I wasn't sure how good it would work since I haven't tested it with your new body and all, but it seems to work just fine. By the way, what happened to the vessel inside you that contained our energies?"Luna asked as she probed around his soul. Usually she could feel her contract and where the energy went, but now she couldn't, as if it just dispersed into his body."Oh, I got rid of that.""Got rid of it?""Since my control of energy has extended to every energy I know of, there wasn't a need for a complicated s
Several months pass...During this time, the Haven continued developing itself. Although they were totally isolated, by now, there was no shortage of any resource. The economy was booted up, everyone prospered, and it turned into a fully functioning society.New history books were written, magical academies began teaching their students everything they could, and the people slowly started to get a hold of themselves and look to the future. In their hearts, although the Haven was a sanctuary, it was also like a prison. Their place was in the outside world, and everyone hoped that one day they or their children could emerge once more and take back the homes that they once knew. When it came to this fact, Dream was glad that not many knew how the Empires were utterly obliterated.Either way, their development went smooth, and everyone adapted faster than Dream thought they would. Luna wasn't surprised though. Given all the accommodations Dream built, it was only a matter of time. The bou
*Boom!**Crash!*With a blow, a flaming red figure went flying across the colosseum, crashing into the wall and shaking the stands."Hm. Work's better than I expected, though not really when used against people who resist. Maybe I could use this for my machines."Dream, who was still in the center of the stage, mumbled and thought to himself as he looked at the gauntlet around his fist and forearm. This was a device built with the recently acquired mechanical energy manipulation magic, and it was designed to negate and redirect force.Iris, who was on the receiving end of that gauntlet, had gone flying with a single punch. Although she was weak, he was able to gauge its power rather well and concluded that it wasn't that useful in battle."Eh, oh well. Now, I think I'm done. Are you?"Dream's cosmic figure focused on Iris. Around the colosseum, all the other class 4's were strewn about either laying down or sitting up. They had all been exhausted and beaten down by Dream, but Iris, wh
A few weeks after the big battle at the colosseum, Dream was observing the portal that was being built within the demon's empire.He always had Sophia monitoring it, and as of now, it was about 90% complete. There was still one section that wasn't yet built, but it wasn't much, and Dream was planning on enacting his plan within a week or so. Until then though, he was just locked away in his factory, as he had been for most of his days.As Dream floated in the air within a big room within the factory, his cosmic form manipulated strands of mana and gray mist, forming a complex magical network. In the center of this network was Aegis's armor body made of platinum.Dream hadn't used the armor much at all lately, and he had been mainly focused on optimizing it and testing its limits. As they had expected when they first made it, the platinum was indeed more conductive to mana and could store much more. In fact, after messing around with flux ratios to find the highest stable grade, Dream
*Boom!**Thud!*"I cannot be defeated!"When two figures clashed in the air, one was sent several meters down into the earth. It was the devil, and he shouted in annoyance as he flew back out of the trench he created."You measly class 4 dare to reduce me to such a state?!""Are you admitting I'm superior?""Shut up! You cannot possibly fathom the true power of the demons! You're nothing more than a worm in the outer cosmos!"The devil continuously retaliated against Dream's attacks. Unlike the cool and apathetic demeanor he had several hours before though, he was now a raging and impulsive mess. Obviously, he hadn't took too kindly to fighting a battle with an equal and being severely injured.Dream wasn't exactly in the best state either though. The devil truly was equal with Dream. His suit was weakened with its enchantments having been debilitated, and his body was destabilized. Whenever the devil came back with a punch, it would blow a hole in Dream's suit and body which would ta
When Dream walked outside the cabin, the first thing he saw was a large patch of scorched ground and a deep pit. The walls of the pit were lined with corrosive black goo, and the smell it gave off was horrible."Sheesh. What the hell is she doing, trying to turn this paradise into a barren cesspit?"Blocking the smell from entering his nose, Dream floated over to the edge of the pit. Inside he saw Luna and Iris as well as the small pool of a bubbling tar-like substance."Oh, you're up."Luna smiled when she saw him. She was sitting on an ice chair that floated over the pool of tar. Then there was Iris, who was laying inside the tar in her fox form."Yea. So... mind telling me what's going on?""Iris had a hard time controlling her powers for a bit and ended up dissolving a hole in the ground. It's mostly calmed down though. Her soul is starting to stabilize.""Interesting. How long until she wakes up?""Whenever I decide to send in some healing power. I was waiting for you to wake up
"~I don't want to set the world on fire~"Within the factory, Dream hummed himself a tune while sending mana through a section of the portal. He was in his cosmic form, and the mana around him was following his every command as if he were a king."~I just want to start, a flame in your heart~"*Clank!*On the portal, a plate hiding some enchanted panels underneath was popped off. Dream proceeded to dig further into the structure of the portal."~In my heart, I have but one desire~"[~And that one is you, no other will do~]"I've lost all ambition, for worldly acclaim~"[~I just want to be the one you love~]*Woosh!*Raising his hand, Dream called over a piece of metal which he formed into a small thin bar. Sophia then enchanted it, and he placed it on top of the other enchanted panels of the portal."~And with your admission, that you feel the same~"[~I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of~]"~Believe me...~"[...]Suddenly going quiet, Dream's hands froze in place. The mana in t
