Alyssia began to dive straight back into her research for a little more time while she delegated some parts to those closest to her and some smaller parts to those within the Creation Union.
She was slowly laying the groundwork for the foundation of each of her projects and as the various things and people with potential arrived as requested, she began to set up her own artificial garden for Pop Green and her Weather Garden which would later be moved onto her ship once it was completed.
The ship that had been undergoing work within Water Seven was completed so many people were left idling around or working within Gallery La to gain extra experience so Alyssia had some of them come to work on her own ship to speed up its modifications and rebuilding.
She had planned out everything from the improvements to the generator, the artificial gardens, the science lab, the kitchen, the lounge, the storage room, the sleeping quarters, the martial arts arena, the weapons on board and other types of things to help escape danger quickly.
All that was missing was to put the pieces together and then she would have a brand new ship with unlimited potential which could also be said to be her second home.
After deliberating over what to do with Pascia, she found that it was best to meet her first before deciding anything final.
In front of her were many candidates for to work on or wield the Weatheria technology she was developing.
She closed her eyes and began sorting out each of their skills as she spotted some red flags.
She pointed to several people right away. "You, you, you, you and you. You are all eliminated. Better luck next time."
One man stepped forward full of anger. "What do you mean? We came all this way and you just toss us out in a second of meeting? This is unfair!"
Alyssia shrugged. "That is not my problem and I know well enough who I have in mind to hire. You just to not fit in with what I am looking for."
She had spotted several skills among those people which were deception, acting, stealing, spying, business espionage and some other skillsets related to either the Marines and the World Government.
Business competitors were beginning to notice the potential of White Storm so it was about time for them to stop with open suppression and murder plots and move onto placing their own people within White Storm to monitor, sabotage and even steal from the group when the chance presents itself.
Alyssia calmly stated. "You all still have your jobs and position, it is just that you all do not fit with this project."
However in her mind, her thoughts were very different. 'The only reason why I am keeping you around is to monitor you all and wait for you to slip up. It is better to watch you all up close rather than sending you all away and having to find your replacements each time. You can try to climb up but there will always be an unsurpassable wall blocking you so that you can do no harm to the White Storm.'
She had essentially sentenced them to working in a low position no matter what efforts they put in so that they could not perform their true duties they were sent to do.
Now that she had been reminded, she was aware that she would need to occasionally visit the business and work areas to do a review of the work force from time to time to look for any new spies.
Then Alyssia thought of something. 'Of course Alfred would have noticed their strangeness or had his suspicions so he must have sent them to me to test me. Sneaky guy!'
Perhaps because of her absences, Alfred had been kept busy and suffered lots of stress so he was getting revenge on her and seeing if she was still qualified enough to lead him.
She pointed to many others and spoke. "All of you will be assigned as assistants within Creation for now and help with the various ongoing projects. You three can be assigned to assist Ashwin with Dial Technology and you six will begin learning how to work in the gardens but of course, it is not an ordinary garden."
She began to feel that Alfred was right about the people that had been found, although many had potential and were intelligent they were severely lacking in terms of physique.
She then looked over to Pascia. "You will begin training directly under me, I will try pass on everything I can to you."
As she read the stats of Pascia, she was impressed that she had grown so much in a short time but she had also raised her intelligence slightly from reading books on Torino Kingdoms library.
The weak slave Pascia that would appear around a year from now was nowhere to be seen as if she was a completely new character who was full of confidence and energy.
Her dancing talent was very high and her stats were very good so Alyssia began drawing up a plan to use her talents to its fullest potential.
Skill combinations began to combine around Pascia as the model and the main skill that it formed around was the dance skill that Alyssia had been raising to assist her White Storm Leg Style which was then tailored to fit Pascia and what she knew already.
Dance combined with Upper Body Martial Arts, Yoga, Weatheria Science and Drawing which provided many templates to choose from if she wished to draw up a full training book with various pictures to show different forms and training methods.
She began to ask. "Do you have any specific tools that you prefer to use in your dancing or would you prefer to add something to a costume or piece of clothing?"
Pascia shrugged. "I can use many handheld stage props with my dancing but I prefer to dance without them if possible."
Alyssia looked through the blueprints provided by the system and began eliminating many. "How about an accessory like a glove, a small fan or something like a scarf or ribbon?"
Pascia shook her head with a proud look on her face. "I do not wish for anything that gets in the way of my body."
Pascia was aware that her body shape and her face were her greatest assets along with her dancing so if she covered up too much or used something like a fan, her beauty would be blocked.
She had become a little vain because of the attention given to her and at the age of nineteen, she was aware that once her beauty was gone her popularity would drop so she wished to climb as high as possible before that happened and establish herself as a famous dancer rather then be named as someone who only got to where she had because of her beauty and not her skill.
Once she was at the top and proved her abilities then everyone would think twice about openly mocking her.
She was willing to work hard to rise up but she was not willing to give up on her advantages, after all those were the things that she believed was why she had been able to be picked up by the White Storm in the first place.
She did not know was that it was Alyssia who was keeping and eye out for talents and had spotted her, after thinking about Pascia's future fate as a slave she decided to give Pascia a chance.
As for what she had experienced before Alyssia had met her or during her time within the White Storm Group, Alyssia had no idea about any of that.
One of the options caught Alyssia's eyes which she found very interesting of a choice, during her time within Kano she had watched a dance performance there which was called the Water Sleeve Dance so while she was purchasing skills and gathering anything that she could, she thought that it may be useful later.
Alyssia asked to confirm it first. "How do you feel about long sleeves and adding them to your dancing? It will not get in the way of your body and dancing too much and will add additional effects to your dancing one I am done with the modifications. You can still wear your usual clothing which exposes your body shape if it is designed properly so you do not have to worry."
Pascia sighed. "I guess I could give it a try, if I keep on saying no there may not be much else that I could be doing. I have experience working with silk and other fabric scarves and such so I will not have much difficulty learning what you may wish to teach me."
Alyssia looked at her seriously. "Mm.. it is good to have confidence. I will draw up your training plan and you will be under my direct teaching for some time until I feel that you are ready to use it effectively. First we will begin with learning how to create mirages as a focus."
She believed that if a costume was designed with the Weatheria Technology, Germa suits and other combinations then it was possible to make the sleeves capable of producing mirages and even adding additional features to it like wind or thunder attacks.
Even if they could not be added, they could be added to a ring or bracelet which could be used in the same way to provide her a way to attack.
