Legend
Lesson 2,886
The day after Ray took care of the Necrogolem... as I told Nina the day before, Ray decides to leave Egginis and goes down the boulevard with Set.
The faces hidden by the snow and winds, including Anne and Lindy, seemed rather unfortunate that Ray was gone, but nothing more was said that Ray's determination would remain unchanged.
As for Anne, Ray is a reliable person to help herself.
If you ask how much you can rely on that, you can rely on someone from the Dolan Workshop to help you defeat Dylan's ambition and defeat the Necrogolem... just as overwhelming.
In Lindy's case, I'm also grateful that Ray's decision to destroy the Dolan Workshop helped him find Goliath.
Given the current situation, it was obvious that Ray was worried that he would be gone.
... like a man in love with Anne, there was no one in there who would be happy that Ray was gone.
But there were really a few of them, and most of them seemed anxious to see Ray gone.
Ray convinced them that he would be back in Exinis soon.
I'm asking Roger to make a golem, but I haven't received it yet. It must be quite reassuring for those who are anxious.
A golem is basically a very expensive substitute.
That's probably why Ray was so persuasive in explaining that he would come back to receive it.
In fact, Ray doesn't really want a golem, but he does know that it's convenient to have one, so it's also true that no matter what, you don't have to do anything to get a golem.
When I said that, I decided that it would definitely be troublesome, so I did not actually say such a thing.
If Ray can break up in peace, I think that's the best thing to do.
Grrrrrr?
What are you going to do with Set walking next to Ray? and snarls his throat.
While stroking such a set, Ray watched what was happening around him.
The boulevard has been badly damaged in the case of the Necrogolem.
At the same time, however, it was also true that reconstruction work was progressing considerably compared to what we saw yesterday.
A lot of people are taking part in cleaning up after the rubble, but I'm sure Golem means more than that.
Cleaning golems pick up small pieces of rubble one after the other, while larger golems help move rubble.
Large and small numbers of golems can be used as a workforce because the thriving Golem industry, Egginis, stands out from the rest of the city.
Workshops and chambers of commerce that own golems, or aristocrats that happened to be in Exinis, are not imitating things like dispatching golems free of charge.
Robert and Dwanda are supposed to pay for moving the golem, and they are also supposed to pay for it.
Besides, there are not many people who do not move here because the reputation of those who put out their golems is improved because Exinis put out their own golems in a difficult time.
"At this rate, we're going to finish cleaning up the boulevard pretty soon."However, I'm sure you'll be pretty busy restoring or rebuilt after that.The carpenters keep screaming happily and I feel like they're getting noisy. "
There is no doubt that it is a pleasure to concentrate on my work.
But at the same time, Ray also had questions about whether only the carpenter in Exinis could finish the job.
Nevertheless, the carpenter had to do more than this, and the Exgenis carpenter had to work hard.
Or maybe you'll borrow a carpenter from another village or city temporarily, as you're doing with the Gilm expansion.
(I think using a golem as an architectural workforce could be quite effective, but... honestly, I don't know.)
When it comes to a golem that can imitate things like transporting construction materials, it's quite expensive.
It would be subtle if the carpenter were asked if he could make a profit by buying such a golem.
In the long run, it would be positive for Ray.
(In the upper echelons of Egginis, if you can buy golems cheaply to boost the golem industry, or if you have a system to subsidize the purchase funds... maybe you will)
I walked down the main street thinking that I might not be able to, and suddenly I saw some children approaching me.
What the hell do you want from me?I thought, but when the children stopped in front of Ray and Set, they bowed their heads at once.
Thank you!
The children say so in unison.
It was obvious to Ray that this was how it happened.
I mean, these kids are probably grateful for the necro-golem thing.
As for Ray, I didn't mean to be thanked by these kids.
I didn't... but I'm still not feeling bad being thanked this way.
"Don't worry about it. This was also my job as an adventurer.... if your family and friends are safe, that's fine. "
There are quite a few dead people in one of the necro-golems.
There were quite a few people who didn't listen to the story of the necro-golem passing through the boulevard first, even though they were ordered to evacuate.
It's not unusual for things like the rampage of a golem to happen if you live in Egginis normally.
However, in the case of necrogolem, if you touch it, it will be absorbed by the necrogolem, and if you don't touch it, if you delay escaping, there are many people who die from rot and poisonous smoke.
That is why there is no doubt that among those who, as a result, have taken orders lightly, there have been many deaths.
Even if someone told Ray that some of the children who were bowing their heads were dead, Ray would be convinced.
Still, the children were smiling, so I thought maybe that would not be the case.... since I'm a child, I can't deny the possibility that I just don't fully understand the death of a human yet.
"Brother Ray, you're amazing!"I defeated such a big golem! "
”Hey, hey, have you ever defeated a strong monster?”
Ah, I want to hear it too!
The children cheered around Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Rae watched the children with Set for a while, but eventually opened her mouth while stroking the head of the child who was nearby.
"I have a little business to do, so I'm going out."So, I'm sorry, but I can't talk to him.Just... I see, you can eat this and help me clear the rubble. "
Saying so, Ray takes the fruit he bought yesterday as a souvenir from the Misty Ring and gives it to the children.
The children didn't seem to understand what they had received at first... but then one of the children understood what he had received and exclaimed happily.
"This... is the fruit of Dwa!"
The children who heard the word "fruit" were also surprised and gladly saw the fruit in their hands.
When it gets hot, it gets sweeter... and yet, when it gets hotter than a certain amount, it gets worse this time, that's the fruit.
Yesterday, when Ray suddenly became hot due to the magical effect of burning the necrogolem, I bought everything where Ray was most sweet, and stored it in a mystery ring without the flow of time.
As expected, overnight, the heat caused by the magical influence of Ray had largely abated, and the temperature had fallen to a level a few degrees higher than usual.
Even so, it was hotter than usual, so it showed how powerful Ray's magic was.
In Ray's case, I think it's worse that it's hotter than usual in that sense... but it's also true that we had to defeat the Necrogolem.
"It's going to be hot today, so drink water as soon as you're thirsty."
Research on heat stroke and dehydration in Summerbathe has not yet been carried out in this world.
Some people say that they fall because they don't feel good enough, as they did a long time ago in Japan, and that they often skip rehydration.
Not everyone is like that, and some of them are imitating things like rehydrating frequently based on experience.
While hoping that such children would not fall due to heat stroke, Ray separated from the children and headed to the main gate.
The children were quickly eating the Dowa fruit that Ray had given them, and they were excited by its sweetness.
So Ray went to the main gate with Set.....
Huh. It's completely cleared out.
The main gate itself is quite broken, but its wreckage is almost non-existent.
When Ray came back yesterday after defeating the Necrogolem, there was still a lot of debris.
"That's true, isn't it? This front gate is the face of Egginis.Of course I couldn't leave it broken.Even without such honor, some people carry supplies from the outside and others go out, and people come in and out.You gave me priority in spinning the golem, and it was already finished yesterday. "
It was a guard who called out to Ray.
The friendly attitude towards Ray is that yesterday, many of the guards that were bought by Dolan's workshop were captured.
Normally, it's never pleasant to think that one of your colleagues has been caught.
Still, the guards who had used the authority of the Dolan Workshop to do so must have been a nuisance if they were guards who hadn't been bought from the Dolan Workshop.
There was no doubt that it was a great pleasure for the guards to have such people wiped out.
"Do I have to do this to get those who came to Exinis inside?"It will eventually be quicker to rebuild. "
"I see. The more visitors, the more money you drop."Besides, there are some merchants who not only imitate Egginis to buy things... basically golems, but also bring and sell things that are not enough for Egginis today. "
The more materials, the better.
"That's true. There are golem materials, but if you ask me if I can build a building because of that, it's not like that."According to what I've heard, there's a certain period of time, but it seems that the merchants who come get preferential treatment when they do business in Exgenis.It's moving fast, isn't it? "
Ray and I don't know who initiated such a policy.
However, I could have predicted that it was probably Robert or Dwanda.
In that sense, are the merchants who are now coming to Exinis lucky?
Today... or yesterday, no matter how hard you try, you will have a policy that favors incoming merchants.
In other words, the merchants who are coming to Exinis now become the lucky ones who arrived at the right time without knowing the information about them.
(To succeed as a merchant... no, not necessarily as a merchant, but anyway, you'll need luck to succeed.Those who are unlucky, no matter how powerful it is, it will be harder to succeed.)
Ray thinks he's lucky, too.
... but maybe that luck should be described as bad luck.
It's not that simple to say that you're lucky in the pure sense of the word when you think of the current situation where you're in a turmoil everywhere you go.
"Anyway, you're leaving Exinis, aren't you?Then we'll have to go through with it.No matter how much Ray is a celebrity in Exxon, he needs to get out of town.... because this is the situation, it's superfluous. "
When the guard said that, Ray couldn't disagree with it either.
In fact, you can see that the entry and exit are quite strict due to this incident.
They must be on the alert for bad guys to come in, taking advantage of Exinis' current condition.
Ray nodded honestly to the guard.
