Centurion Showdown (Isaac, the first Adventurer)

Chapter 14 (Foundations of Fame)

I immediately went on a shopping spree, searching all the nearby towns and every shop within them.  I was looking particularly for builders and construction contractors. 

After a long walk I finally found a Construction District in one of the larger towns.

Within the district was a huge warehouse, filled with all kinds of building materials.

I went up to the huge door and knocked on it.

A builder answered the door and let me inside, taking me down multiple descents of stairs into a huge underground chamber complete with Brass statues, holding up the pillars.

I consulted about 20 of these Builders.

"Is it a bad time to request a huge project?" I asked.

"It's never a bad time with enough money," One of them said.

"You will have to work together with other workers, this will take as many hands as possible. I plan to have a gigantic stadium constructed near the center of this Universe. How much money do you want for your help?" I asked.

"Depends on how many workers. Got any blueprints?" They asked.

"Not yet, I was hoping that some architects were present. All I can say is that the project is very big and I will probably need all of you," I requested.

"We work for this big guy," One of the builders said, pointing to a Brass statue larger than the rest. This statue wasn't holding anything, instead sat down in a giant stone chair.

"He gives us the instructions most of the time. He is an excellent architect and has made some amazing blueprints in the past. You could ask for his help," They suggested.

"The statue?" I asked. "Alright I will. Thanks for the help. I'll come back when I have a plan so we can determine a price. I already have a team that can ensure your transport and your safety on site,"

I went up to the tall statue, ready to talk.

"What?" The Statue Boomed!

"I seek your wisdom in architecture. I am looking to build a giant stadium near the center of the Universe. It will be the grandest place ever, it will unite all the Realms," I proposed.

"Come back later," The Statue replied bluntly.

"Alright," I said, as I prepared to leave.

"He takes around five hours to complete blueprints," A builder came up to me and said. "He is definitely going ahead with it,"

"I will be a centerpiece of this Arena," The Architect demanded.

"He also likes being a statue in great buildings," Another builder pitched in.

"Of course. You shall stand tall and strong in the Champion's balcony," I offered.

With a metallic creek, the statue came to life, moving and beginning to write the blueprints on a huge stone table, looking as if it was carved out of the cavern floor!

I waited patiently and after about an hour the statue began dropping blueprints down to me.

They were so complex yet so precise, I couldn't even understand them fully.

"Can you guys understand these?" I asked the Builders.

They each took a page and began reading.

"Yep. Quite easy once you work for him for a while," The one in the middle said.

"So how much would you expect me to pay for a project like this?" I asked.

"The big guy is technically our boss. I would ask him," The Middle Builder replied.
