Chapter 8: Thoughts
I woke up at around 7 PM. I was in that strange mode of being really tired but also really awake.
Never mind that, I had some food that was hunted by Dante and Oliver. Cooked meat was getting old, though. Sadly, there was no alternative of which I could think.
Grown food would take too long and would not meet Demons' dietary needs.
Without any other food that I could feasibly get, I just sucked up my hate for the food and gobbled it up.
My teeth were noticeably sharper, the meat tore easily, and with my increased jaw strength, eating meat required no more effort than eating potatoes.
Reflecting back, it had been a long few days and not only that, but it was also just getting started.
Part of me just wanted to sleep and eat until I died. Yet, I also wanted to conquer.
I thought too much lately, what should I do then?
Meditating sounds nice; it's how my brain got this calm in the first place.
I got into the locus position but found it uncomfortable, so I just lay on the ground like I was sleeping.
Deep breath in...
And a deep breath out.
Deep breath in...
And a deep breath out.
Two hours later, the sun had fully set and the room, without a fire, had gone completely dark.
Focusing for such a prolonged period of time was hard. Especially at the start. Yet, after some time, I got into the swing of things, and it got much easier.
For the first time since I had gotten here, I had finally relaxed.
I only realised now how much I had gotten into the heat of things and rushed. For instance, the 20 houses had a week's deadline and I had done it in 2 days.
There was no extra reward for doing it earlier, so why did I rush?
I know why. It was because I wanted to do my best, to try my hardest, but sometimes trying my hardest did not necessarily mean rushing it. Sometimes you are better off planning properly for the future.
For example, in city planning, my houses were placed with no consideration for the future and would eventually lead to congestion and overcrowding.
The demons were mentally strong and could deal with most issues they did exceedingly well in poor conditions.
But I didn't want to be any ordinary king.
I wanted my city to be a reflection of myself.
Not perfection, but I wanted to get as close as possible.
I would need to fully explore my map for resources in the future. I would also need to train my citizens and myself in martial arts and other weapons training.
Would it raise our stats?
My guess is maybe. Honestly, I had no clue, but eventually my troops would end up better disciplined and overall fitter, making them more battle ready.
In LordsVsLords, I had made a good training regiment for my troops that was rated by the system as 2/5 stars. How did my troops then win most battles? My training regiment trained the mind more than the body. The system just sucked at noticing how important the mind was during warfare.
So, I think implementing training would be good. I would do that tomorrow, I decided.
Next, I would need to attempt some city planning.
What should my citizens do throughout the day?
Do I make them train for the entire day?
No, that would be inhumane. What else do they do, though? Wait, why do I have to plan out what they do? They could just decide for themselves.
So tomorrow I need to do some city planning, then I need to train my citizens, then I need them to build that workhouse, and then I need to do the new mission.
Finally, I need to meditate for at least 3 hours tomorrow.
Yep, I wanted it to be a daily thing. For my mental health, I feel I need to rewind sometimes, or else I'll burn out.
Ourgh so much thought, I've had enough. I'm going to sleep.
So, I did, I fell asleep 2 minutes later.
