Chapter 650



It’s not polite to do this to someone’s face, but is it because the person you’re dealing with is me?

Now this old man has no qualms either.

“Are you not going to tell me?”

“Before that, can I ask you one thing first?”

“Go ahead and try it.”

“Why have you been avoiding me all this time?”

Even though I thought it was a bit of a lame line, I thought I would definitely ask him in person when I met him.

“Avoiding? “What does it mean?”

“I wanted to make an appointment to meet you, Marquis, but you ignored all my communications.”

Unless he was intentionally trying to avoid me, this behavior is completely incomprehensible.

Then, why is the Marquis like that?

I’m not asking you to flirt with me.

Not long ago, he even offered a seat at the royal meeting and even showed interest in getting his daughter married.

The truth I heard from the lips of his marquis was very simple.

“You’ve been busy.”

“Is it so difficult to send a reply?”

“I didn’t even know I got a call in the first place. “I spent the last few days inside the palace.”

When I looked again at the marquis who said that, I saw that there was deep fatigue under his eyes that could not be hidden.

But is that why?

His Marquis’s voice is also more sensitive and sharp than usual.

“I heard that the head deacon explained it to you that way in the first place?”

“uh….”

I heard an explanation, but I didn’t know it was real and not an excuse.

I felt embarrassed for some reason and kept my mouth shut, and the Marquis looked at me as if I was dumbfounded.

“You are also very strange. He came to me asking why I was avoiding him even though I didn’t meet him. “Isn’t that too arrogant?”

“…huh?”

“Don’t think that everyone will make time for you just because they want to meet you.”

“i get it. “I apologize for this incident.”

“Not an apology, but a promise. Don’t come to me like this again. A certain level of rudeness can be tolerated due to cultural differences, but this is an act of disrespect to me.”

“…You said you understood.”

Is it because I came here in a disappointing position?

When you say that with a straight face, I’m so scared that I can’t say anything.

‘…I wonder why you’ve been so busy these days.’

What could have happened to the Marquis, who commutes from the imperial capital of Karnon, to the point where he was so busy that he couldn’t even leave the royal palace for several days?

I couldn’t help but wonder why, but I couldn’t open my mouth to ask.

They didn’t even give me a chance to do that in the first place.

“Now then, tell me your business. “I can’t waste any more golden rest time.”

As the Marquis complained several times during the short conversation about lack of time and fatigue, I also got to the point without further ado.

“I came to ask you to select our Yandel family for the reconstruction of District 7.”

But maybe it’s because this is my first time making such a shameless request.

Or maybe it’s because I didn’t expect someone like me to do something like a favor.

“…her?”

The Marquis let out an exclamation filled with astonishment, then looked at me and asked.

“Is there even a need to do this? “I don’t know what they did, but I heard that Melves has already selected you as their representative.”

Well, that’s right.

Since it receives support from Melves, it is not a big deal if it participates in the competition for orders normally.

But, that’s what business is all about.

“There is a way to definitely handle it, so there’s no reason not to choose that way.”

“I agree with that way of thinking, but….”

Soon the Marquis narrowed his eyebrows.

“I can never agree with your attitude as if you came to retrieve something you entrusted to me.”

It was a side I had never seen before.

Even when I joked about breaking his head in front of him, he didn’t sound this annoyed.

‘Did you really pick a time when you were so busy to come visit me?’

Although I regretted it later, I decided to think positively.

What should I do?

If we had waited in the first place, I don’t know when we would have been able to meet and talk like this.

“Tell me. “Why should I do you a favor?”

I just responded in a consistent and shameless manner.

“Think of it as a bachelorette gift.”

“Bachelorette gift…?”

The Marquis tilts his head at a word he has never heard before.

Well, this is why they are seniors.

“Why can’t I get married in the future, so I can at least give you a gift?”

In fact, there were cases like that in our society before I was brought into this world.

Isn’t it unfair for non-marriage supporters?

I can’t get it back after paying the congratulatory money.

“….”

Hearing my logic, the Marquis paused for a moment, as if lost in thought.

It may sound far-fetched, but as the person who blocked my marriage, I couldn’t just ignore it.

“…You have a point.”

Fortunately, the Marquis was also a person who understood the law of give and take well.

“However, I cannot decide matters related to state affairs as I please. “What should I do with this?”

The Marquis muttered to himself as if he was in trouble, but in fact, he could not sympathize at all.

This is because the marquis was an old monster who did whatever he wanted in his place as second-in-command.

It is better to filter out painful words and think of them as a lubricant before getting to the point.

Just like this.

“Oh, then how about this?”

As expected, it is different.

Soon the marquis proposed a compromise.

“I will give you a chance to compete fairly.”

“opportunity…?”

“Actually, it is true that a total of five families, including the Yandel family, are being considered as strong candidates. “The chances of the Yandel family being chosen are infinitely low.”

Well, that was expected.

Until now, the Yandel family has never shown anything related to architecture.

Without the support of Melves, he would not have even been nominated.

The reason I couldn’t wait patiently and tried to meet the Marquis was because I knew that fact well.

“so? What exactly does it mean to give a chance?”

“That’s literally it. “I’ll lay the board for you, so you can prove yourself.”

How on earth are they going to lay the board?

I couldn’t picture it in my head easily, so when I listened to the Marquis’ explanation later, I was truly amazed.

“Let me sum it up…. Are you saying that the five families should gather together and have a building competition?”

“It’s hard to call it a competition, but it will be more of a demonstration where each family shows off to the public what they are good at and what their strengths are.”

I wonder if that’s it, but the Marquis’ next words were quite reassuring.

“Just achieve a certain level of performance so as not to ruin my reputation. Then, this order will be taken from Baron Yandel.”

For some reason, I felt strange.

It somehow fell through, but come to think of it, there was a time when Melveth originally tried to do something similar with a dwarven family.

“Okay, let me know when the time is set.”

…I never thought a battle of hard work would come to fruition like this.

***

When I returned to the shrine after finishing my conversation with the Marquis, our administrative secretary general was still working overtime with the lights on.

Well, isn’t it?

“Shavin, what are you reading so intently?”

“Ah… that’s… a letter. The branch manager of Alminus Bank asked me if I was thinking about changing jobs…. That’s strange. “He’s someone I don’t really know in person…”

what?

Could it be that Count Alminus gave the advice? Like if we could meet once and scout, we would do it?

‘This old man is really….’

“Just ignore him, he’s definitely a scammer.”

“…So, your pride is suddenly hurt?”

“It’s my mood, it’s my mood.”

“So what’s going on at this hour?”

“Am I someone who only comes when I have work to do?”

“yes. “Do you think I don’t know that you don’t usually come here because you’re afraid I might order something?”

Uh… you already knew everything.

I felt embarrassed for some reason, so I quickly got to the point.

“I’m on my way after having a conversation with the Prime Minister today.”

“…With the Prime Minister?”

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Just like that. Looking at things like this, he seems like a really great person…”

Shavin was uncomfortable talking back, but I didn’t come here to talk about this today anyway.

Afterwards, I shared the conversation I had with the Marquis with Shavin and declared that I would take the time to personally check the hard work capabilities of our warriors tomorrow.

“Tomorrow…?”

I sensed some life in Shavin’s trembling voice, so I hurriedly continued to explain further.

“You don’t have to call too much. But instead, call in the whole team, not just the ones who are doing well so you can see the average.”

“Hmm… then it’s not that difficult.”

“There is no need to feel too burdened. “Right now, I’m trying to find out what the warriors’ skills are and analyze what more we need to prepare.”

“all right. “I will prepare it that way.”

Okay, then I guess I’ll just have to look at this in person tomorrow…

After finishing my errands, I talked to Shavin and her tribe about some more work, then sneaked back to the temporary lodgings and fell asleep.

And the next morning.

“Oooooh!”

“The clan’s strongest warrior came to see our skills!!”

“It’s time to show my skills!”

“Behel—laaaaaaa!”

For some reason, the barbarians who had been summoned in the morning took the test with great enthusiasm.

It was completely unexpected.

It’s not like you want to see my fighting skills right now.

‘When did these guys become serious about architecture?’

Out of curiosity, I asked Einar vaguely, and a completely unexpected answer came out. No, not exactly…

“It’s thanks to the brainwashing of the Executive Secretary.”

As a tribal leader, a word appeared that could not be overlooked.

“…Brainwashing?”

“The Executive Secretary said that even goblin notions can be cured with appropriate compensation and constant praise.”

When I listened to the story, wondering what it meant, it seemed like Shavin had made efforts in many ways to change the perception of the warriors.

The warriors who completed the task were given a small reward, praised greatly in front of everyone, and their desire for honor was satisfied.

‘It satisfies the need for recognition…’

Should I pinpoint the part where the barbarian goes crazy and runs wild?

Why are warriors so passionate about force in the first place? The reason may be that force is closely related to life itself…

The essence is that the need for recognition is satisfied.

Because everyone recognizes strong people, our warriors shed blood and sweat every day.

“I don’t know, but some time ago we had a conversation about building a house quickly! “If you win there, you become more popular with the opposite sex, so I went out there and it was difficult!”

“….”

“it’s a shame! “I could have done better if I had learned construction work instead of going into the labyrinth!”

Even Einar said something that was completely contradictory, so there would be no need to explain the status of architecture within the tribe…

‘I don’t know if this went well or not…’

As a tribal leader, I was a little worried, but I decided to look at the positive side as much as possible.

If architecture becomes more advanced, doesn’t that mean there will be a way to make a living without having to live as a warrior?

Increasing options is always a good thing.

‘…Anyway, I guess it would be good to have expectations like this?’

Soon, from a distance, I watched the demonstration construction process prepared by Shavin Emoor and took the time to evaluate the architectural skills of our warriors.

“I can move three rebars!!”

“No, I can do four!!”

On carrying capacity.

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

In terms of work speed.

“What are you doing! “Just stick it in there!”

Details ha.

“…What, Kirita, Myoka’s second son! W, the window doesn’t fit here. “What should I do?”

Highly difficult work skills.

“Everyone, cheer up! “The president said he would give us 10,000 stones if we build it by today!”

Labor costs ha.

Also, let me point out a few peculiarities here.

Only square-shaped buildings can be built.

I don’t know how to make a circular roof.

Overall, it’s fast, but mistakes are frequent.

I don’t know how to read blueprints at all….

‘Is it this much…’

I whetted my appetite as I saw the disadvantages that were as obvious as the advantages.

“Useup….”

…what should I do with this?
