Steve’s POV.

After Jacob was gone I got some time to work on the park. W should I do first? I wondered. Maybe I should create something from the park menu, I decided after some reflection.

"Open park menu."

First, I created a forest in my domain. After that, I placed some plants on my land and some water plants in Siriki lake. Then, I began to create some flowers and planted them throughout the forest and outside of both Jacob's house and Siriki lake. When I was done with planting the flowers, I opened the park menu again and pressed ‘build’.

I first built a road from Jacob's house to the lake. Upon the roads completion, I decided to speed up the growth of all the seeds that I planted, using park points, and to make the ground inherently more fertile, also using park points. My tasks completed, I began to actively absorb mana as I waited for Jacob to return.

Jacob’s POV

After an hour of walking, I arrived at my park. When I looked towards my home, there was a road leading to my house and lots of flowers everywhere. A forest had also appeared in my ouse’s backyard. Upon I entering my house, I called out Steve.

"Steve are you awake? This place looks pretty nice. Great job," said Jacob.

"Thanks Jacob," said Steve, with a bow

I told Steve what happened in the town. and I gave him the mana stones. Soon after, he started to rapidly grow. When I gave him the 50th mana stone, I heard a ding.

Ding.

Steve has reached level 5!

Park menu expanded.

After that, I kept giving him the mana stones until only one hundred were left and let Steve get to work on expanding the park territory. I got to work making the terrain liveable for the animals. I saved a lot of money and park points by not providing the animals with any food, as all animals (other than the park master), including monsters, can live off the park’s mana. After I was done with making homes for the animals, Steve and I talked about the animals I bought. I had bought many animals that we discussed, including:rabbits, horned rabbits (a monster), foxes, two-tailed foxes (a monster), hedgehogs. mice, rats, otters, raccoons, frogs, and toads. I also bought some fish for the lake and birds for the sky, such as: owls, rainbow colored owls (a monster), crows, lightning crows (a monster), trout, rainbow trout (a monster), blue trout, ducks, guppy's, Pikes. ravens, bluegill. And largemouth bass. As Steve and I talked, it gradually grew dark As tomorrow would be a busy day, I made dinner and got to bed within an hour of it getting dark.

The next morning

I woke up at 3 am and started making the park ready for when the animals were delivered to the park. Before I did that, I asked Steve if I should plant the tree saplings and the seeds. After some thinking, Steve answered: "I think you should let me absorb them because then they will be added to the list of species we could create."

“Wonderful idea Steve. I will give them to you right away," said Jacob.

I gathered the seeds and tree saplings and gave them to Steve.

"Thanks Jacob," said Steve.

And he began to absorb them. After he was done absorbing them, I asked Steve "Would you like to expand the forest on our domain with the new plants and trees? Let's make a bridge to it."

"I have a better idea than a standard bridge. Why don't we make smaller islands around our domain and connect them with bridges to the mainland of the park, " answered Steve.

"Awesome! Steve, you do that. I will be working on creating another forest, a bit farther from Siriki lake," said Jacob.

After the discussion, I started making a forest with the park menu and filling it with plants and rocks. As I was almost finished with making a forest, I started making a couple of caves inside the forest with basic park magic. After making the first cave, I heard a ding. Ding.

Your mastery of the skill ‘Basic park magic’ has reached level 2!

And after the third cave, I heard another one.

Ding.

Your mastery of the skill ‘Basic park magic’ has reached level 3!

And after the 5th one.

Ding.

Your mastery of the skill ‘Basic park magic’ has reached level 4!

After that, there were no more blue screens. When I finished making the eighth cave, it was 1 pm. In about 2 hours, the animals will be brought here. I quickly made a road, with the park menu, from the forest to Siriki lake and started walking to Steve. 10 minutes later, I arrived at Siriki lakeI called out to Steve.

"Steve are you almost done?" asked Jacob.

"I am done with the first side of the lake and almost done with the second side," answered Steve.

"Can I help you?" asked Jacob.

"Yes you can. You take the left side, I take the right side," said Steve.

"Alright. Let's start," said Jacob.

Afterward, Steve and I started making the islands and bridges and connected them to the mainland of the park. We placed trees and plants on and around the islands. As we were done with making the islands and bridges, it was 3 pm. I started walking to my house. Upon my I arrival I saw the caravan from the pet shop appear in the park.
