After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World - Chapter 643

Chapter 643: Cassandra and Gill
Her begging made him rock hard, but he still paused, lifting his head to look at her.

“Are you sure about this?” He asked, sweat dripping on her skin. The women of Xeno were much more conservative than they were, especially girls with her background.

What she was doing… could be considered extremely scandalous in her world.

He couldn’t do it.

With this thought, he gestured to get back up, but she was held in position by Cassandra, who was a level higher.

“Why?” She asked, pained, and it broke his heart. He leaned down to give her a peck, supporting his weight with his strong arms. He parted from her, and rested his forehead against hers.

“That’s unfair to you. What if you get in trouble?”

“I won’t,” she said, “Please?”

She looked up at him, her large purple eyes looking at him, begging. She wrapped her arms around his neck to pull him closer to her, moving so he felt her naked softness. He could feel all of her curves rubbing against him, and each touch was sending boiling magma down his groin.

“Do you not want me, Gill?” She asked, her hot breath on his ears. With this, his reason went down the drain.

Who could reject this?

And so was the current scene.

He took a deep breath and turned to her, trying not to get distracted by her ample cleavage and beautiful face. “Are you… okay?” he asked, and Cassandra looked at him as if he asked a weird question.

“Of course,” she said, “You were a little wild, but fortunately my level is high.”

This made Gill blush a bit, but he looked at her with a bit of seriousness and apprehension. “Do you regret it?”

This made her frown. “No, do you?”

“No, of course not,” he said, laying back down to wrap his strong arms around her.

“I’m just… now that I’m thinking about it, I realized that it’s so sudden,” he said, “Wouldn’t you get in trouble? Is it worth it?”

“I don’t mind, I wanted to give my first time to you,” she said. His eyes widened a bit at this, surprised, but seeing her determinated face, his heart softened and he patted her cheeks, “I’m not stupid Cassandra. What happened?”

She paused, looking away, and unable to look at his eyes.

Cassandra was in such a rush because of the letter from her family.

They were forcing her to wed a man she didn’t like, though Cassandra knew it was for the sake of her Town. According to the letter, it would lift up the territory’s current slump, making it great again.

Women… simply didn’t have much say in their own marriage, especially a woman of her position. Rebelling wasn’t a default in their worldview. Even Cassandra, who was much more feisty than her peers, didn’t even consider it.

Regardless of what happened, Cassandra simply wanted something to remember by.

She loved Gill and although it was impulsive—for once, she just wanted to do what she could for herself.

But none of these was spoken out loud, and she only buried her head into his generous arms in silence.

Gill knew she wouldn’t say, for now, but he knew there had to be a reason for her to risk being potentially vilified by her society.

He just pulled her tighter into his embrace “Whatever is in your mind, know that I am willing to listen.”

Cassandra buried her head on his generous chest.

“Thank you, Gill. I love you.”

…

After the celebration, the daily lives of the citizens resumed. Whether it was people hunting, going to factories, gathering resources, or others, they were all out and about and contributing to the overall strength of the territory.

Micheal watched the hustle and bustle of the village, and then stared at the few hundred people who would be coming to him to Bright, which was already much more than he expected.

These people were all slaves, most of whom had some friends and family still in Bright.

He also announced a free residency program to anyone with enough skill, which enticed a lot of people to come with him. They knew Bright was a subsidiary to Altera anyway, so life there wouldn’t be too bad. At least in Bright, they were proper residents!

He had also gotten a hint that the costs of becoming a resident in Altera would only increase by a steep line. Where was the next best thing for people who wished to have residencies? The nearby villages, of course!

He also had to think about his huge debt to Altera. He needed as many working citizens as he could in order to pay for that.

The memory of how he milked Garan’s money came to mind, and he shook his head. Oh, how the tables turned.

Still, a part of him hoped Altera would just merge them, but he knew that it was wishful thinking. Altera still had too large of a room to grow—there was no place for Bright, at least not more than as a subsidiary.

Micheal requested for some guards to escort him, which the Elders allowed just this once. These guards were not few and well-equipped though. After all, there were rebels in there and they would have to be ready for a confrontation.

Anyway, Bright was their subsidiary and the war punishments would not be triggered with just this amount of guards ‘attacking’.

As for the other guards, they would continue guarding Altera, while a few would be sent to check on Vismont and Belluga as part of the usual rounds like before.

These villages were extremely close to them, and they made a point to monitor what was happening there, especially when they found out aborigines had already reached and caused chaos in one of them.

Other than these, Althea and Garan finally started planning for their newly obtained territory.

A new satellite! It was a new scope, a new area to handle, and a whole new adventure to fix.

It was a lot of work, but the couple was sure it’d be worth it.
