After fully understanding the functions of the [Scenery Maker], Ian couldn’t help but look around the room they were currently in.
“Ian, do you know how to use this gadget now?” Machi asked curiously, watching his actions.
The corners of Ian’s mouth curled up slightly.
An idea formed in his mind.
He winked at Machi and chuckled softly.
“Machi, I think you’re going to absolutely love what this gadget can do…” “Have you ever thought about what kind of room you’d like to live in?” Hearing Ian’s words, Machi paused.
She tapped her cheek lightly, her gaze drifting off as she fell into thought.
“A room?
I’ve never really thought about it.
Isn’t a house fine as long as it provides shelter from the elements…?” Ian couldn’t help but smile wryly.
*I almost forgot…* Machi and the others had grown up in Meteor City.
Their expectations for life had always been based purely on survival.
“My question was a bit too strange.
To make up for it, please enjoy this magic trick I’m about to perform for you, Machi.” As the boy’s clear, gentle voice faded in the room, Ian held the [Scenery Maker] in front of him and looked around.
Suddenly, a plume of white smoke materialized out of thin air.
As the Nen inside Ian’s body was consumed…
*Poof!* The originally dilapidated wooden roof vanished, replaced by layers of pure white clouds resembling soft fleece, stretching out toward a boundless azure sky.
The surrounding walls transformed into a vast, lush green prairie.
Various cartoon-like animals from nature appeared incredibly lifelike, observing them from both near and far.
Antelopes with round, wide eyes bounded about, their hooves trailing little wisps of clouds.
A lion hid in a secluded spot, lazily peering in their direction while stretching its claws to scratch its snout and yawn.
An elephant with ears like giant fans stood by a river, a cheerful smile on its face as it sprayed water into the sky with its trunk, forming a rainbow.
In the center of the room sat a bed so soft it looked like a white cloud fallen from the sky, practically begging someone to sink into it.
Seeing the scenes unfolding before her, Machi gasped in astonishment.
Her mouth fell open and her eyes widened as she stared at the unbelievable transformation of the room.
“Where…
where is this?
It’s amazing…” The sudden appearance of a prairie landscape she had never seen before, along with the adorable animals that seemed to have stepped right out of a fairy tale, made it almost impossible for Machi to believe her eyes.
Ian was also quite astonished as he looked at his masterpiece.
The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise.
In this moment, Ian finally shed his mature and composed facade, revealing a trace of the innocent wonder of a boy his age.
It had to be said, even Ian was shocked by the effects displayed by the [Scenery Maker].
The scene before them was like an absolute dream—a picture that could only be imagined in the mind, one that no famous painter or master architect would ever dare claim they could bring to life in reality.
Whether it was the vast expanse of the prairie or the materials used within it, there wasn’t a single flaw to be found.
Yet, relying on the [Scenery Maker], he had truly and perfectly replicated the image from his mind.
Standing in the middle of it all, the two felt as though they were genuinely out on the open plains.
They completely forgot that they were actually inside a dilapidated little wooden shack of less than ten square meters.
“This is a prairie…
Machi.
No, to be exact, we are still inside your house.
I just created a prairie scenery.” “Do you like this kind of scenery?” Ian looked at Machi beside him and chuckled softly.
For the residents of Meteor City, the only scenery they might ever see in their entire lives was skies filled with yellow sand.
Machi’s round eyes were wide open as she looked around, her voice filled with delight.
“It’s unimaginable.
Is this a prairie?
I love it…” “Is all of this real?” “Not all of it is real, but at the very least, aside from the surrounding scenery, the rest is real.
Like this bed, for example.” “I think from today onward, we finally won’t have to sleep on wooden boards anymore.
Go on, give it a try.
It looks pretty comfortable…” Ian explained with a smile.
