Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

Chapter 103 Back To Central City



The rest of the day was spent making sure everyone in the South City was okay, but the trees and animals had taken care of most of the people. We were just mostly greeting the people as they came up as we walked around the city on the backs of the two-story-tall cats.

Most of the people seemed confused by everything that was happening, but that was something to be expected.

The world had ended almost exactly three days ago, and now I was watching the sun go down on the back of a twenty-foot-tall Siberian tiger.

"How long do you think we will have before they try again?" Melody asked from her seat in front of me as she leaned back into my chest.

"That is a good question, but I don't think we have to worry about that. We have a good long-range surveillance system set up now, so they won't be able to sneak up on us. They also gave us the north, so they are going to have to work for a while to catch up with us now," I explained, and Melody turned up to me with a smile.

"Does that mean we are going home?" Melody asked, and I nodded.

"Yeah, time to head back to Central City. The trees have weeded out all the bad eggs, and I scanned my Kratos clone, so there is nothing left here to do. I would like to get back and work on the project that Anya and I started with the books. That is something for tomorrow, but tonight I am going to be spending time with Katie," I explained.

"That is right! Do you have a tree ready for her?" Melody asked as Snowball, our giant tiger, turned north and started to head to Central City.

"Not a tree. Katie likes to be active, so I wanted to do something a little different for her. She also likes challenges, so I created a massive dome maze from roots, vines, and many different plants. I let the trees decide how it is laid out, but it also constantly shifts," I explained as Snowball bounded forward.

"Wah?! The girls are all so different, but you seem to be able to think of something for each of them! Not that I am surprised, but it is impressive how well you know us all. Most men struggle to learn about one!" Melody laughed, and I rolled my eyes.

That was only because our group had always been friends, and all of them had been girls, except me. It had started off casual, but after grade seven, the girls started to change.

They all wanted to spend more time with me, and at first, it was just the three of us. Melody, Katie, and Anya, then I met Marley through Katie on their farm, and Anya introduced me to Vic.

Once we all hit grade nine, I ended up getting asked to come and help with things, but that was when I really started to get to know each of the girls. They all had sides that they showed the other girls, but they were all different when it was just us alone.

"I just paid attention to you all. You know, that was one of the main reasons why I picked you. You never asked me for anything, but then you did, and I couldn't believe what was coming out of your mouth," I chuckled, and Melody closed her eyes and pressed herself into me, rubbing her head into my chest.

"I don't need your help; they do. You need my help, all I need is your love, and you give me that whenever I ask for it. Things have gotten a lot more complicated than I planned for, but ten is a good number. These girls all need you, and I know that you want to help them all grow," Melody explained, and I let out a long sigh.

We stayed quiet for the rest of the ride home, watching our shadows slowly get longer as we ran through the forest. It was strange to look down and see old roads and fields that once were farmed with massive trees sprouting out of them.

The world was slowly being changed around me into a green utopia, but I was starting to wonder if I was any better than the AI. Sure, I was trying to make a perfect world, but that would mean pushing out anyone that didn't want to conform.

"Melody, what do you think about what I am doing with the people that don't want to conform to our new way of living? You know, pushing them out and such?" I asked as we slowed down.

We had just reached the outside of Central City, but my barrier had finally been erected. Vines and roots weaved in between a ring of Great trees that surrounded the city, and I could see that the ceiling had started but had stopped.

"What is wrong with it? You are asking them to live peacefully, and they don't want to. Some people are never going to change, so there is no point in keeping them around. I think that most people will change, even if they have to spend time outside for a while. I also think that in a month, people that survive are going to have different outlooks," Melody explained, and I nodded.

The massive wall of vines and roots untied and weaved apart, letting us in, but I felt like I was walking into a paradise. The whole place was changed, and all marks of the old humanity had been removed.

"Wow! I did not expect this!" I exclaimed as I looked out over the fantastic sparkling forest top city.

All the buildings were gone, buried or overgrown; it didn't matter, they were all gone, and the place looked spectacular! This was like something out of a fairy tale or a light novel!

"Ya, we have been at work over here when we weren't helping you. We also have people using the clones since they can communicate with the trees more. Gaia and I have been directing people during the cleanup to remove all the old buildings. Now we have a pretty forest, but it's not completely done yet," Melody explained, and I kissed her cheek.

"Still looks great!" I laughed, and kissed her as Snowball stopped.
