Episode 653 Heterogeneous Kingdom (5)

Selena spoke to the noise as if the workers were shouting.

“It looks like you’re pretending.”

“It must cost quite a bit of money to get the materials to build it.”

“How long will that last…”

the nobles said one word calmly.

Even otherwise, the principality lacked funds and manpower.

To build a building on such a plate, it was not efficient to hang on all day.

‘What the hell is the saint thinking?’

No matter how much I think about it, it’s incomprehensible.

Gregory took his first steps.

After passing through the forest where the cabin was, a large clearing came into view.

Among them were three or four goblins eagerly carrying lumber, and Ray clinging to the pillar and swinging his hammer loudly.

When he saw them, he waved happily.

“I see you again. Was the bed comfortable?”

“Yes… Thanks to you, I rested comfortably.”

“That’s nice. I was going to be the first to call it when it was finished.”

While talking, the hand does not rest.

How well do you handle the hammer?

Huge wooden pegs, which had been scattered here and there, are now getting stuck.

However, his hammering did not enter the eyes of the nobles at all.

Contrary to my expectations, Philia stuttered as she looked at the building that was being built quite well.

“Did you make this in one day?”

“It’s nonsense…”

Gregory, who was trying to keep his composure, also opened his mouth.

according to their words.

The building, which I worked on all night, was already forming the basic foundation.

Even in the case of the first floor, it is safe to say that it is almost complete.

Selena looked around with sharp eyes.

Then the materials the goblins were carrying caught my eye.

‘…what is that?’

when doubt arises.

The goblins were working together to insert it into the building.

As if assembling.

The strangely shaped timbers are gently overlapped as if they were originally one.

Selena was shocked by that.

“You’re assembling it!”

At that cry, the nobles also woke up.

Looking around, I saw some goblins who were handling unusual materials.

“Oh my God… what a great idea.”

“…Certainly, if you build a building as if you were assembling it, the time can be shortened.”

Surprised nobles gradually turned into profound expressions.

Ray said scratching the back of his head.

“If you want to meet the deadline of three days, it is impossible in the usual way. So what I came up with was assembling the building.”

It was a woodworking technique that was familiar to Ray, who had lived in modern times, but to them, there was no such fresh shock.

Carving intact wood into its own shape and overlapping it.

Since it was a public corporation that did not originally exist, nobles who looked at it had mixed feelings.

They glanced at Ray.

‘I thought there was only force, but it wasn’t.’

‘…a person who cannot be underestimated.’

Extraordinary thoughts cannot originally come from criminals.

It is natural that one cannot think without digging into at least one field and fully understanding the principles.

The saint in front of me seemed to understand the principles of woodworking better than anyone else.

If it was a method thought by an ordinary craftsman, it would have been surprising, but in the case of the saint, it was a little different.

His power is beyond the reach of ordinary people, even if he strives for magic and swordsmanship.

However, in addition to craftsmanship, he also has a good knowledge of carpentry, so how could he understand this?

He is only a little over twenty.

I couldn’t help but be surprised that I had already built up prophet-level skills in various fields even though I was too young to achieve unity.

Gregory was genuinely amazed.

“As well as meeting the deadline… If we build it this way, we can save materials.”

“that’s right. It takes a little effort, but once you get used to it, it speeds up.”

I have to cut a huge piece of wood to fit it exactly, but how can I speed it up?

“Did the saint learn carpentry?”

“I learned over the shoulder from my father-in-law Dwarf. It is worthwhile to learn that it will be useful someday.”

“I see… if each person is a dwarf who is a craftsman.”

He must have learned these techniques under them.

After interpreting that, Gregory nodded and said,

“If you are interested, would you like to work together?”

Like a beast that has seen delicious prey.

Looking at Gregory’s hard, muscular body, Ray licked his lips.

If you get caught wrong, you might have to spend the whole day as a slave laborer.

He hurriedly shook his head in denial.

“I visited today to convey the words of His Majesty the Emperor.”

“What is the old man’s answer?”

“yes. To put it bluntly, His Majesty wants to be treated differently from other countries.”

Gregory continued.

“As you know well, Lessian is different in scale from other kingdoms. Not only do they dominate all trade markets, but the location of the Magic Society and the Merchant Continent is also different. As such, I think that in order to maintain an equal alliance with Lessian, that kind of treatment must be promised.”

He spoke calmly and with utmost courtesy.

Ray thought for a moment about the future.

‘Well, there’s some truth in what Gregory is saying.’

As much as there are different things I can do, I think it would be nice to do more for the Lessian Empire.

In addition, after making a good relationship with Lessian, they helped the halfman top tier without knowing it.

If you receive something, you have to give it back.

Ray readily agreed.

“great. I can listen to that much.”

Gregory’s complexion brightened as the job turned out to be easier than he thought.

“His Majesty the Emperor will be pleased too. I dare to express my gratitude on behalf of Lessian.”

“Selena of Lessian gives thanks.”

The two bowed their heads.

The aristocrats who watched it from behind were frankly envious.

Indeed, it is Lessian.

It’s amazing that he can speak boldly in a situation where things might go wrong if he does something wrong according to his mind.

Leaving behind the eyes of half regret and half envy.

Gregory and Selena were able to leave with pretty bright faces.

On the other hand, the aristocrats who started to get impatient had to roll their feet while watching the scene.

Let the architecture start to get somewhat on track.

Lei left the job to the goblins and set off.

I passed through the winding road and entered the castle, which was built quite plausibly.

“God, what are you doing at this hour?”

“I came to see the Queen.”

“If it is the Queen, she will be in the castle. Please wait.”

The goblin who opened the castle gate guided them to the inside.

By the time I arrived at the inner room with strange patterns drawn here and there.

The courtesy goblin politely withdrew.

“This is all I can guide you through. The Queen is across the room.”

“Ok, thanks.”

“yes.”

The goblin bowed briefly and withdrew.

Ray lightly knocked a couple of times.

Knock-knock-

“Come in.”

It seems that he already knew that he had come because of the presence he felt from the outside.

I opened the door and entered the room.

The soft, refreshing scent of tea tickled his nostrils.

The Goblin Queen held out a teacup.

“Eat.”

“Ugh. Goblin tea is not to my liking.”

I heard the rejection because I had been severely burned by the mud car (?) the goblins had given me in the past.

“It’s not a goblin car. The tea leaves were sent from the upper half of the store, so I’ve only tried brewing them once.”

He is a half-man with a deep knowledge of cars.

If it’s from him, you can trust it and taste it.

Rei took the teacup and took a sip.

“Mmm.”

The smooth flowing tea leaves a bitter taste in the mouth.

The moment I was about to pass the car I had rolled in my mouth once or twice.

The tip of the tongue started to feel a fairly familiar taste.

‘This is…’

The smell of mud.

Once I was conscious of it, it seemed like there was a taste in my mouth.

The goblin queen, ignoring the speed of others, smiled.

“Halfman gave me good tea leaves. It smells really good.”

I was just curious about how I mixed the mud with the good tea leaves.

I couldn’t bear to spit it out in front of this person who was sipping tea as if it was genuinely delicious.

Ray forced himself to swallow the tea.

“Heo-eok…”

It feels like a lump of mud has passed over my throat.

“How was it?”

He sighed after glancing at the goblin queen who asked for his impressions after feeding him mud.

“Not bad. More than that, I have something to tell you.”

“Tell me.”

Unlike the time when she commanded dozens of goblins in the dungeon, now the queen who reigns over numerous goblins has begun to appear quite absolute.

Looking at her like that, Ray said.

“I’m thinking of leaving the manor soon.”

“I was expecting that. When are you planning to leave?”

The response is calmer than expected.

“It will be suitable around the time the territory starts to develop.”

“yes. I was worried about what would happen if I left right away. But… are you okay?”

“huh?”

“This realm belongs to God. But I’m not sure if I can rule… or if I can lead the goblins the right way.”

Queen’s Anxiety.

That could soon become the anxiety of all goblins.

“What if you get anxious? You’ve been doing well so don’t worry. I’ll leave a trustworthy guy behind as well.”

“…Are you referring to submission?”

“okay. Even if he looks like that on the outside, he’s someone you can rely on in times of need.”

The goblin queen narrowed her brows involuntarily.

Now I feel sorry for Subok, who is not trusted even by the goblins.

She said with a serious face.

“Goblin God, let me ask you one last question. Can I really lead the territory in the direction I thought?”

She is a queen who has been doing well so far.

Ray answered indifferently.

“okay.”

What changes will the current answer bring?

He didn’t even realize it at the time.

Encouraged by the answer without hesitation, the goblin queen drank her tea.

The two, who met and chatted for the first time in a long time, did not know that the picture they were drawing was changing.
