After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1095

A/N: So, this is a bit embarrassing but I guess the mass release turned my brain to soup so I mis-edited a few stuff xD I changed up some things during editing that I now realize was messed up.

To summarize, the events of the previous chapters happened a few hours after the declaration, not the next day. Lololol. I edited and fixed some continuity stuff (in Nightlife Street chap as well as the previous one), but do tell me if I missed anything!

Cough. Back to the story!

A lot of people wondered what was with 3:00 am and fireworks, but the activities were so explosive and the energy was high that everyone was just happy to see such a surprise.

Anyway, even if they were wondering, everyone stopped whatever they were doing and headed to find the best places to view.

These were either the view decks or the parks with the least amount of tree canopies to block their sights.

At this time, the guard team assigned to keep peace also headed towards various squares.

One of the teams was Cassie’s, who was now a captain. She had just been promoted last month after gathering enough contribution points. She divided her team into pairs to go around various spots in the square making sure the peace was there.

After all, although there were a lot of rules and regulations, plenty of things still went past it—otherwise, everyone would get yellow cards. So their tasks as internal guards would be to keep the order despite this.

Cassie’s partner also ended up with a partner this time, and it was none other than the aborigine Bumi.

Bumi had also joined the guard team a few months back and he tried hard to get assigned to Cassie’ team. His hard work bore fruit when Cassie was promoted to captain.

New Captains were allowed to choose half of their members among the unassigned rookies. Because he worked very hard and was a very good worker, she chose him.

Bumi was so happy he almost jumped for joy. His grandmother, Bona, was also happy he got closer to Cassie. She even made huge sumptuous delicious dinner for him—half of which he was asked to send to Cassie and her grandmother to ’show appreciation’.

Bumi’s grandmother was a pretty good cook. She took night classes for cooking at school and became one of its best students. Suffice to say, Cassie and her grandmother were genuinely appreciative of the good food.

Anyway, currently, they would even be watching the fireworks together! It didn’t matter if it was on the job, bonding time was all that mattered.

"Should we get our grandmothers?" She asked.

Bumi blinked. "Are they already awake?"

After all, the announcement came at a really odd time. They just finished dinner when everyone was asked to rest in preparation for the post-midnight activities.

"I think so," Cassie said. "I think we should check. I’m sure they wouldn’t want to miss this either way."

Bumi thought for a moment and nodded, and the two went by their houses to get their grandmothers.

It so happened that Cassie’s house (which they owned) was near Bumi’s house (which was rented). The two old women hit it off and exercised together every morning with the other old people.

Bumi’s grandmother was also hired in the same clothing shop, and they had been BFFs since then.

Even after Bona gained cooking skills after a few months of night classes, she didn’t move industries, preferring the peacefulness of the profession more than the high-stress field of restaurants.

The old women also used the Training Hall together (though their grandchildren often accompanied them to level up outside when it was their day off).

When they got near their neighborhood, they encountered their grandmothers who were well-dressed and already heading out.

They seemed disappointed to see the two of them though, with Bona shaking her head as she looked at her grandson in disappointment.

Still can’t get a date?

Bumi: "..."
