From a military standpoint this made sense. Have a place for soldiers to rest after war and if the time comes you can call on them again. And any child they have will also automatically join in the war, that is probably why there are so many members of the Roman camp when compared to the Greek camp.
Since the Roman demigods get to retire and live a life, they get to have children, who are also accepted into the camp, making sure that the Legion never ran out of members.
But it wasn't just that. He wanted this life for himself and the other demigods, a future where they could be safe. When all the war and fighting was over, just a place for them to retire to.

Personal guilt
Do you accept?
YES/NO?
Percy's eyes shot open so quickly he felt like his eyelids were about to tear open. '10 million Exp?! Fuck yes I want to accept!'
Percy pressed yes and the box dissolved itself. Percy smiled until suddenly realization dawned on him. 'Wait….I have to build a city?! What the fuck?! How do I do that?! I can't even build a shelf!'
Percy was ripping his hair and hitting himself in the face over and over again while Thalia and Julia looked at him from afar.
"Should we try and stop him?" Julia asked.
Thalia shook her head, "it's times like this when I learnt that the best thing you can hope for is for Percy to just calm himself down."
And sure enough, like a switch had been flipped, Percy suddenly straightened up and a look of calm fell over his face. He had activated his Gamer's mind and used it to calm himself.
'Okay think Percy think. The first thing you need is funds. Lots and lots of money. Okay that won't be a problem. I have a freaking treasure chest filled with gold, good thing I didn't give it to Chiron yet. I can use the Gold to buy the land to build the haven on. Then I need to build actual buildings…..maybe I can get the Hephaestus kids to help me with that. Maybe they could draw up the designs and I can build it myself, or even ask Annabeth. That's it! I'll ask Annabeth! I'll get the designs from her and build it myself!. After all I do have super strength and super speed, what else do I need?'
Percy kept thinking about his new problem and soon they reached Senate building. The building itself was located on the west of the Forum, which was basically the heart of the City. The building had a white-dome on top with pillars holding up the ceiling. The steps leading up to the senate was also marble and looked polished form frequent use.
The Legionaries and Percy entered the Senate and inside reminded Percy of a mix between a high school lecture hall and the Amphitheater back at Camp Half-Blood. The hall was in the shape of a semi circle filled with cushioned seats all facing the raised stage on which was a podium and two chairs.
The Legionnaires quickly took the seats on the left of the stage near the back, while Julia and Rob lead Percy and Thalia towards the front rows. There Percy saw the front row was also occupied by ten other senate members most of whom were all older demigods, one even looked around 50, which meant Edward Neak wasn't the oldest demigod Percy had ever seen, this guy was.
Julia and Rob got onto the stage and the Greek demigods followed them.
"Ah hm," Julia cleared her throat but no one paid her any attention. Many of the senators were discussing amongst themselves.
"Attention!" Rob shouted startling everyone with his booming voice. Percy simply raised an eyebrow, if he remembered correctly Rob had a thing for Julia, ah the things we do for love.
"Thank you," Julia nodded to Rob, "now senators I am sure you are all wondering why I have gathered you all here today."
"Is it about the Greeks that have supposedly come into camp?" one of the senators, an older man with black hair and a thick beard asked. Percy looked at the man's name and title;
Edgar Winston, Son of Mercury
Lv- 27
'Wow, a son of Hermes,' Percy realised, 'I never would have guessed. He doesn't quite look the part.'
It was true, Edgar was frowning, and that was scary. Percy had rarely ever seen a son of Hermes frown, the last one he saw frowning was Luke, and that was when Luke had to go back to spy on Kronos.
Julia nodded, "yes, it is Edgar."
"Are the two behind the Greeks?" another senator asked. A chubby man with brown hair and a sweaty brow. Charles Lame, son of Bacchus.
"Yes, they are," Julia stepped to the side, "make your case."
Thalia and Percy nodded and stepped up.
"You want to take this?" Percy asked in a whisper.
"Why?" Thalia asked.
"Your a daughter of Jupiter, they like Jupiter. Plus I might accidently piss them off, again."
Thalia nodded as she spoke up, "Romans, greetings. I am Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus, or in your case, daughter of Jupiter."
The senate went into a ruckus, everyone started talking about Thalia and what she represented.
"I have come from the Greek equivalent of Camp Jupiter, camp Half-Blood," Thalia continued, "we were sent here by the Gods in order to form an alliance against Kronos-I mean Saturn, and his forces."
"Why should we trust you?" one of the Senate members asked.
"Because Kronos wants us dead just as much as he wants you," Thalia shot back.
"And what guarantee can you make that you will not betray us?"
"Simple," Thalia crossed her arms, "mutually assured destruction. If we betray you then we won't have the manpower to stand up to Kronos."
