Hilda watches as the two leave, sighing with Shila as they do so.
“Hilda, you could have died if they didn't see any interest in working with you.”
“I know!”
“Anyways, where do we build this?”
“Somewhere isolated, with a big enough place right?” Shila confirms with Hilda.
“Nope, just somewhere big enough since I want a flying house!”
“... K.”
“Mom, where is big enough?”
Hilda looks around at the ruins of the village, swinging her sword with more sword qi and mana, flattening out the rest of the area.
“... Hilda, all this for a house is messed up.”
“You don't seem to disagree.”
“Of course not, I'm connected to you, my personality is made so it won't be too much of a deterrent to you, so I'm not too morally upright either, and obviously Jasmine isn't either since you both have the same sub trait.”
“Hey Shila, what's your sub trait?”
“Didn't I tell you before?”
“Nope.”
“No… I swear I did.”
“Nope.”
“Whatever… anyways, my subtrait changed.”
“It can change?”
“Yep, but only under certain circumstances.”
“Like?”
Shila looks around at the recently committed massacre.
“Oh.”
“Anyways, it's partial apathy now.”
“You weren't as apathetic before?”
“Yea, though it was on the verge anyways. Though I doubt it'll change again ever since the subtrait will just keep on fusing into me, making it harder to change the longer I have it.”
“Oh”
“Mom! Stop talking to sis! Let's go make house!”
“Alright, alright Jamine, calm down.”
Hilda pets Jamine on her head, calming her down slightly as she remembers the gift provided by the elf and dwarf.
“What's this?”
Hilda takes out the pouch, opening it to find gold coins which disappoint her before Shila sighs, showing her the coin's description.
Gold coin.

“How generous huh?” Hilda starts smiling like crazy, annoying Shila and confusing Jamine.
“Mom? Are you okay?”
“Yep, we have more than enough for a house now.”
“Yay!”
Points: 23,526,927.
“Hey Shila, can't we build the blueprint?”
“Nope, you still need the skills needed which cost a lot. You still need the maintenance tools.”
“How much are those?”
“Oh, nothing much. Just like 100,000,000ish.”
“...”
“Then how do I make my house float?”
“Oh, simple. You go to the shop instead of asking me.”
“Fine.”
Hilda opens up the shop, finding multiple usable objects.
Floating platform.
Gets stronger the more mana is infused into it, the owner and any connected or allowed entities can mold the shape like clay.
Resistance to acidity scales with the amount of mana infused.
Can self repair at a certain rate. Increases with the amount of mana infused.
Weight can be changed by infusing minimum amounts of mana.
Mana cannon.
Strength increases based on the amount of mana infused. Durability increases based on mana infused.
Resistance of acidity scales with the amount of mana infused.
Can self repair at a certain rate. Increases with the amount of mana infused.
“This should suffice for now.”
Hilda immediately spends more than half her points on the floating platform.
“haha, this is gonna be nice.”
“Guys, make a floor out!”
As they start molding, they end up with a figure similar to an upside down pyramid.
“Guys… what?”
“Hey Hilda, this is so your house can balance properly if you intend to land it.”
“Mom, it looks nice!”
“...”
Hilda sighs, jumping on top of the platform, continuing to mold with Shila and Jamine joining in.
“So… Hilda, what's the plan?”
“Anything, improvise.”
“Sure.”
They keep molding, making many changes and arguing non stop with June just playing with it like it's playdoh as they eventually end up with a castle midair, the originally white coloured cannons and floating platforms turning black permanent under Hilda's trail.
“Damn, the fact the trail is connected to my soul is annoying.”
“Too bad.”
After a couple more hours later, the house is completed.
An upside down triangle, a giant castle on top of it with a bunch of cannons sticking out from the bottom of the triangle, all connected to Hilda, ready to shoot on her command.
“Let's try it out?”
“Yay! Mom is great!”
“Jamine, calm down we helped too, along with the massacre, of course she should.”
“Oh, is that true? How about I leave you here Shila?
Shila shakes her head, making a zipping motion on her mouth as she jumps onto the platform with Jamine following after, the ground beneath her slowly melting but repairing fast enough to negate it mostly.
“So what's to go first?”
“Me!” They both answer at the same time.
“Aren't you two a bit too enthusiastic?
“Hilda! Who doesn't wanna fly a flying castle with cannons!”
“Yea mom!”
“Just take turns?”
“Fine, Jamine can go first.”
“Yay! Thanks sis!”
Jamine hugs Shila, causing her to get annoyed by the slow melting caused by her.
“Mom, how do I fly it?”
“Just think, you're connected to me so it'll probably work.”
“Ok!”
Jamine starts trying it, successfully lifting it into the air as she starts shooting the cannons, annoying Hilda with the unnecessary amount of mana waste.
“Then what do we shoot?”
“... Forest.”
“Ok!”
Jamine starts a new form of deforestation, sending the forest where the golems resided to hell.
A while later, Jamine stops, watching as the ground below her has been reduced to nothing as she lets Shila start instead.
“Hilda, what do I blow up?”
“Your choice”
“Hmm… can you buy a mint or something like that?”
“Sure?”
Hilda buys something called a speaking platform which increases volume of voice as Shila suddenly starts sending the platform full force into a direction, stopping in front of a cave as she steps onto the speaking platform.
“This is revenge! Revenge for talking back and pissing me off!”
“Huh? What is Shila on about?”
Hilda looks down, using mana around her eyes as she notices white with his system inside.
“Oh…”
Shila starts blowing up the cave, not being able to kill white at all but hurting him and trapping him temporarily and causing a cave in.
“Yea good job! Blow his ass up!”
“Mom? Ass?”
“Nothing Jamine, don't say that.”
“Ok?”
Jamine goes to the side and watches, remembering something her mom said while blowing up with wyverns.
“Fuck em up!”
Hilda and Shila both turn to her then to each other.
“Hilda, this is your fault, don't even try to blame it on me.”
“...”
“Jamine, bad girl. I told you not to say that.”
“But you said it!”
“You can't.”
“That's not fair!”
“Bad girl.”
“Mom is mean!”
“I'm not! No saying that or no more food box for you both!”
“What?! Hilda, why am I affected too?!”
“Cus I feel like it.”
“...”
Shila goes back to blowing white’s area up, leaving Hilda with enough mana to fly them back to the ruins of the city where she buys a massive bed for them to all go to sleep.
