Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Episode 731: What I Want

Does Priest Nicolo refer to personal assets when he says, "That's what I wanted"?

You got anything you want? If you put your hand on your chest and think about it when asked, there's not even a few of them.

First of all, I want to move to a bigger and brighter place than the office where my current paperwork is piled up, and I want a garden where Sarah's one can plant herbs and beans at will and keep chickens.

I want a document desk that is wide and can be adjusted in height, and I want to build a pen that doesn't catch on.

I feel like I'm going to make my eyes look bad if I don't make the lamp a little brighter too.

I want Gorgogo to make a pasta noodle maker, and I also want a dimensional torso pan to boil it and a fresh and abundant vegetable oil to soothe the noodles.

Speaking of which, I need to buy Sarah new clothes as well as shoes.

And then you wanted a copper fork too.

But if you say so, that's about it.

It's a little extravaganza to the extent that even today's earnings can be realized if you care about it.

I don't want any more status or honor. The only thing that adds to the job is visible.

Are you sure you don't want to? If asked, there are hopes that cannot be realized even in the Church.

It is that "a world where all rushing adventurers can buy workshop shoes cheaply and people are never frightened of monsters" will come true.

This would be impossible to achieve even with the power of just Priest Nicolo.

Giving "the desire to relate to the desire of the individual" with "the desire that cannot be realized by me personally and that can be realized by the Church" is difficult to guide.

"Right..." said Priest Nicolo, annoyed to buy time, "it's an abnegation..." etc.

No. That's what I call a big mistake, and I want to say it out loud.

Nevertheless, it would also crush the face of Priest Nicolo to insist on nothing as it is.

"... then, could you build a church? Because it can be small."

That seems to have made sense to Priest Nicolo.

"On the leather street, huh? Quite a handful."

"I'm afraid so."

There are repeated raids on the Leather Street shoe workshop, in short because the place is not important to the ruler.

Whether there's a slum called 3rd class neighborhood, or a case in its depths, the guards won't even know unless the citizens are harmed.

Therefore, the situation continues that we have to defend ourselves against direct armed raids.

"If there's a church there, let's not reduce the number of people who plot something obscene"

Yes. With the Church, we can remind ourselves of the very act that extends to force.

The church can be seated "Post" by being able to do new churches, and it can be monitored against shoe factories.

Neither is a losing deal.

I'll throw the bait at the church and give you another, fateful request.

"In welcoming the new church to Leather Street, I want to transform the street itself into a clean path. As you know, the paths of the third class neighborhood with leather streets can be dirt and dust if it is clear, and muddy and sewage paths with unpleasant odors if it rains a little. As a workshop for the Cardinals, we wanted to at least improve the passage."

"Hmm."

"I would therefore ask you to allow the laying of cobblestone roads, the installation and cleaning of drains, on the scope of the parish of the new Church that can be done"

"It's a special victory."

"When it comes to the actual construction, you can also send people from the technicians we have called for for the development of the territory..."

"Let's be good. Let's also cover the cost of church construction."

"Thank you"

I feel signs that Priest Nicolo is somewhat confused about whether this will be a reward, but for me it can be considered a twelve minute achievement.

A clean environment is a very luxurious substitute, although it may be unimaginable for cloudmakers to come and go only between first- and second-class neighborhoods like priests.

Beautiful cobblestone roads in 3rd class neighborhoods, sewage that never overflows with rain, will be something to be proud of for artisans working in the streets.

Everyone feels compelled to work in a workshop that looks better than the one that looks narrower.

And the "other right" gained in the present request. This could become a very significant right later.

Perhaps I accidentally admitted it because it was the blind spot of Priest Nicolo the Cloudman.

Though I may have just missed it.

"It would have been easier if I'd been a priest or involved."

"Unfortunately, I am alone all my life."

As a reward for taking in a manipulated person, besides guarantees to the person such as marriage and raising his or her identity, there are also ways to take his or her brother, son, into his or her proper capacity.

If I had a clan person, I'd take them into my own hands by offering them a benefit.

If it's capable, if it's incompetent and scandalous, it's a loan to me.

That is one way to take those who do not become priests into the faction by increasing their borrowings and turning them into geese.

But, Priest Nicolo, you haven't given up on making me a priest yet.

A man who can, he doesn't give up badly.
