When the sun's light faded away and the darkness surrounded the mountains, Michael and Gaya left their home through the backdoor. They informed Jack that they are going to secluded cultivation and not to be disturbed.

After reaching the Core Formation stage, Michael's flying speed increased significantly, it only took them five hours to reach the Dark forest.

"No matter how many times I enter this place, it still gives me the creeps," Gaya said, staring at the dark walls of the Abyssal.

The winter climate blanketed everything in white snow except the dark forest as not a single drop of snow could be seen in the forest. As usual, the dark storm clouds hovered over the forest with continuous flashing purple streaks of lightning. It was a domain that stood independently radiating an evil vibe, a vibe that could be even compared to the Treacherous ocean.

"This is home, Dark Queen," Michael who was now adorning Lucifer's armor, said.

He truly did feel at home much as he did when he was at the sect. To be honest, he liked Abyssal more because here, he was himself. Deep down he knew Ghost was just a facade and Lucifer is the real him.

Michael did not waste any time interacting with Dular but went straight to his room on the far end of the underground.

"Dicky would love this place" Gaya jumped onto the bed that Michael bought from the system and placed it in his room which was used by her more than him.

His room had not many things and seemed empty. Only a few things occupied the space such as a large table and a comfy chair, two six feet tall book racks, and a spacious fancy black bed.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

"We can't bring him here, anyone with half a brain could connect Nightmare to Ghost and guess Ghost is Lucifer," Michael said, sitting before the large table to build things.

Leisurely supporting her head using her hand, Gaya stared curiously at him to see what he was up to. Michael willed the system to take out the things Jack bought for him.

Soon afterward, on the table appeared a stack of mirrors. Each individual mirror was the size of a 24 inch monitor.

"What do you wanna do with all these mirrors, see yourself from various angles?" Gaya chuckled.

"We are going to see the entire Bredia" behind the black mask, Gaya was stunned to hear his words. She quickly stood up and came closer to see him applying a greyish glue-like substance on one side of the mirrors.

"Let me help too," she said, taking another brush from the table to apply the greyish substance on the mirrors just like he does.

"What do you mean by seeing the entire Bredia?" while applying the glue, Gaya asked Michael.

"It's easier to show than explain" Michael continued to apply the glue. After a few minutes, Michael used the Arch energy to lift the mirrors before placing them one after another on the wall before him.

In just a few seconds, the entire wall was filled with mirrors and reflected nothing but the images of Gaya and Michael.

"Just watch" Anticipation made Gaya jump on the table and sit there staring at what he's doing.

Before starting to build his army of spies, he took a one feet long tubular metal and a few other parts that had runes on them. Most of these parts were used to assemble magical objects such as carriages, weapons, and tools used by people of various professions, therefore, he could directly buy the parts rather than custom building them.

After looking at him assembling the parts and gluing them together, she saw him taking the Junk metal ore and placing them before him. Under Gaya's gaze, Michael gently caressed the long metal tube in his hand, it resembled the shape of a ballpoint pen, only it was one foot long and had a diameter of three inches.

"Let's see, Ignitia" holding the pointy end of the metal tube at the Junk metal, Michael cast Ignitia as a bolt of lightning went straight into the metal tube.

"Wow" Gaya's eyes immediately widened in shock and surprise seeing a bright blue color light appear out of the metal tube's point end forming a hole in the metal ore.

"What is this?" Gaya asked curiously. This was the first time she saw a light cutting metal with this precision and ease. Normally, she knew the blacksmiths would heat the metal using various means before cutting them, and even though it was a weak Junk metal, Gaya could tell the heat coming from the blue light could easily cut many strong metals such as iron, silver, and gold.

"It's called Laser, with this I can build my army of little spies"

"How?" her eyes sparkled, wanting to play with the laser like a child.

"You'll see" After successfully building a laser to cut the metal in desirable shape for his first big move in taking over Bredia, he had everything he needed to build little spy cameras.

Michael's full focus was on the task at hand as he began to cut the metal ore and assemble various parts in front of Gaya's eyes. He felt like Batman who was creating Batarang in his Batcave.

"Spider?" After Michael assembled his first spy camera, Gaya took it gently and examined it with eyes full of curiosity and wonder. The spycam on Gaya's hand was the size of a shirt button, it had eight tiny legs and instead of eight eyes, it had only one eye on the center of its head.

"How does it work?"

"System, connect the spyder cam to one of the mirrors" Before answering Gaya, Michael entered the system to connect his spy cam to one of the mirrors. He did build the spycam to use Arch energy and link with any orbs without the help of the system but with the help of the system, he knew that he could create a state-of-the-art surveillance unit in Abyssal.

"It will cost the host 20 badass points"

"Do it"

Michael experienced a tingling sensation in his mind after he ordered the system. Soon afterward, he exited the system to feel that he could control the spyder cam using his thoughts instead of a remote.

"Whoa!" Behind the mask, Gaya's jaw slightly dropped when one of the mirrors suddenly began to show her face. She stared at the mirror and the spyder on her palm repeatedly until Michael gently grabbed the spyder cam from her.

"With this, we can soon spy on the entire Bredia"
