He had known that the cloud hornets altered cloud composition to make them more solid, but he didn't know that they were solid enough to serve as the bedrock and foundation for extensive civil engineering atop them.
"You have a village atop a cloud?" Rui asked in disbelief.
"Hoho... Impressive, isn't it?" The man smirked. "The infrastructure is also constituted of cloud bricks and cloud cement. Amazing isn't it?"
Rui had to admit that he was impressed. It was actually quite amazing to see such a fantastical sight right before him.
"Wait a minute," Rui frowned. "So you're telling me that in order to find you, one would literally need to search the clouds? Searching the forest is futile?"
"That's right, haha," The man laughed.
"..." Rui stared at him with a dubious expression.
"I don't accept just about anybody who reaches the center of the forest. Only those that pique my interest, like you did. And that worked out well, didn't it?"
