Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Fairy Recruitment Department

Noah returned to the Dragon Nest, but the garden in the front courtyard had lost its usual hustle and bustle. Although there were still fairies moving about, most of these Little Flower Spirits were seizing the time to rest and rejuvenate, losing interest in playful antics.

For this situation, Noah felt a slight pang of guilt but not much, as he never really promised anything, merely suggested a possibility to the Little Fairies.

Besides, after packaging and selling—whoops, letting these little ones assist his adoptive mother, Noah did strive to secure many benefits for these Little Elves.

After all, these little fellows were no longer working for him, but for his adoptive mother. As their Sect Master, he could freeload with confidence, but his adoptive mother couldn’t; there is a difference between close and distant, so his adoptive mother had to pay them proper rewards.

Noah didn’t demand gold or silver as compensation on behalf of the Little Fairies but asked his adoptive mother to open her magic potion garden, allowing the Little Fairies to freely enter and absorb the essence of the potions as a reward.

In the past, this was a privilege only enjoyed by the Great Fairies. The Little Fairies could benefit, but only if they followed the Great Fairies. Now that the restriction was lifted, Little Fairies could enter on their own, although the time they could stay was limited.

Even so, for the Little Fairies, this was a great opportunity, increasing their chances of evolving into Great Fairies at least tenfold.

As for this request, Selena naturally agreed without hesitation. The absorption of magical power from the magic potions by the Little Flower Spirits would simultaneously provide feedback with their unique magical power, promoting the growth of the potions.

The relationship between the two is mutually beneficial and symbiotic, though Little Fairies aren’t useful for overly powerful potions, but enabling more Little Fairies to evolve into Great Fairies is also quite beneficial.

Investing in advance and fostering them—after all, Little Fairies can only be pushed so far; exerting them a little more and they’ll be useless, but Great Fairies are different, easily able to advance to Radiant Gold and withstand highly burdensome workloads without collapsing.

However, for every policy at the top, there are countermeasures below. Although the fairies couldn’t avoid the heavy work, they certainly knew ways to reduce their workload. They weren’t fools; previously, they just had no need to use their wits.

The Augustus family’s territory was still developing, but it had already reached a steady pace. The total amount of administrative work to be handled was limited, not infinite. Therefore, when unable to escape the work, they could find more companions to join, indirectly reducing their workload.

Thus, the original group of just over a hundred Little Fairies, under heavy workload, still managed to spare some sharp and effective members to form the Fairy Recruitment Department.

The purpose was obvious—to find more companions to join them, and the slogans they chanted to the outside were very appealing to fairies, incredibly tempting.

"Let our songs echo across the sky, let the world hear our voice."

"Head to Elisium, reclaim the wings of freedom!"

"Join us, rebuild the lost Fairy Land."

"Fairy Alliance, building dreams together; Hand in hand, towards glory."

"All the fairies in the world unite!"

Nearly twenty years old, with a sense of drowsiness creeping in, Noah couldn’t help but smile wryly when he heard the fairies’ slogans for recruitment.

"These little ones really have ideas."

Recruiting more companions, even with a Great Fairy leading, was a daunting task. But with the support of a Duchess who was an Extreme Intent Mage, the outcome was entirely different.

A large number of Little Flower Spirits scattered in the wilderness, hiding cautiously, living difficult lives, were found by their peers wishing to reduce work pressure, coaxed and persuaded to join.

In fact, for Little Flower Spirits, who could be considered the weakest of fairy-like creatures, facing an invitation from their kind was something they couldn’t refuse, let alone with a Great Fairy involved; the sense of security is the most urgent first demand for Little Flower Spirits, who can’t even guarantee their survival.

"Have no worries, recruit to your heart’s content, and set no thresholds!"

The Great Fairies naturally reported this to Noah, and Noah naturally told them to go ahead, as after all, how much trouble could the mischievous Little Fairies possibly cause?

"Hooray!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

The fairies’ enthusiasm for recruiting newcomers reached an unprecedented peak, driven by Noah’s indulgence. In just half a month, the number of Little Fairies doubled, and this speed was accelerating, as these fairies were gradually becoming skilled in recruiting new members.

The elves began to thrive, but Noah’s mental vigor diminished day by day—a weary feeling, unstoppable and unconquerable, swept over him like a tide.

"Noah, are you about to enter a deep slumber?"

Tidel, hearing the news, hurried over to Noah. After his mother returned, he was reassigned to the fort at the Valley of Flames, overseeing the construction of the fortress above the Valley of Flames.

Although many underground clans had surrendered, the Augustus family hadn’t relaxed their vigilance over the underground. They continued to strengthen their armament in that area, preparing to expand and cultivate land around the Valley of Flames, truly bringing that area under control, and gradually developing the 300-kilometer uninhabited zone.

"Yes, a nearly twenty-year-old young dragon like me should be entering the second deep sleep."

Noah lazily replied.

According to the normal growth cycle of dragon species, reaching this age is considered a very mature juvenile dragon. Unfortunately, Noah was still a young dragon, but fortunately, the deep sleep period was approaching; otherwise, he would indeed be somewhat anxious.

"So how long will you slumber this time?"

"How would I know? As you can see, my situation is more unique than most of my kind."

Noah replied grumpily. He then looked at the noble in front of him, who still maintained a youthful appearance.

"Don’t talk about me; you’re almost thirty and still don’t have a child. You’ve been married to Edith for so long, why isn’t there any movement in her belly? When are you going to have a baby for me to play with?"

"For you to play with?"

Tidel was silent for a moment, then replied in a calm tone,

"That’s not something I can decide alone. All I can say is I’ll try my best."

"Don’t just try your best. Is there some unspeakable secret between you two? Is it that you’re not capable, or is there something wrong with Edith? Is the elf bloodline in her causing difficulties in having children?"

Noah wondered aloud.

"Don’t talk nonsense; there’s nothing wrong with either of us. It’s just that we don’t get to spend much time together."

"Oh, I see. Then I’ll have a word with Aunt, so you can spend more time together. I want to see your child when I wake up."

"Why are you worried about this?"

Tidel, feeling rather helpless, was more so resigned.
