Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Episode Seventy-Two: The Future of Normal Life and Krumfal

In the morning, when I woke up, I was alone again. Rico's room, Mae's room, nobody's here. When we went down to the dining room wondering if we had all gone to Krumfal territory again, we were all there. I grazed my chest, but for some reason, they're all sinking faces. Quiet, take your seat.

"Good morning. Can I have breakfast?

"Oh, please"

Pallis heads to the kitchen with Dosdos. All the other women think with wrinkles between their eyebrows.

"Guys... what's up?

Often silent conditions persist.

"We'll just have to let Linos decide."

"Right. Krumfal is Lord Linos for once."

"What the hell are you talking about, Rico?

"This is the future of Krumfal territory. Indeed, the fishery will be brought back. But only then will the inhabitants, those who sent in the transfer, not eat. We're going into harvest time, but there will probably be zero harvest prospects. We will be able to support food this past year, but it will not be a future heist. I was trying to figure out a way for the people to live."

"For once, even in rough fields, fertilizers that grow crops have been made, but the chemicals that dissolve salt are still unfinished. I'm sorry."

"May doesn't have to apologize. I'm thinking about that, too. I'll explain. Give me a minute. Let me have breakfast first. And we have to reopen the Imperial City store."

"About that, sir, I've made these stones."

May took out the large, medium and small light green stones.

"If you put your husband's magic into this, it's a junction stone that can tie the boundaries to the owner"

Well, I'll try magic on the little stone. Then the stone turned red. Apparently, this is it. To try it, let Luara hold it and try to lighten it up.... Ooh, the ties are swollen properly. Which ~ and Ferris slaps. The junction breaks brilliantly and the right straight hits Luara's face. I fly away like a doll, I lose my mind. As I approached him to do the restorative magic, I found something flowing chocolate from my groin. I did the restorative magic in silence, boiled the bath, and entrusted Pallis and Rico with the later processing.

"Is that it? I was going to add and subtract strength."

"If you hit him with the power of a dragon, it will be broken in a normal junction."

Then I did a test of the junction stone for a while, but for the first time a crack entered the junction by shaking my "black knife" as hard as I could. If this is the case, it will be enough for sale. Also, the good thing about him is that it doesn't work for people with distractions and evils. Therefore, it is impossible for the bandits to take advantage of this. Incidentally, a large demon stone is the effect of 5 days, a medium demon stone is the effect of 3 days, and a small demon stone is the effect of 1 day.

Head to the Teito store with the junction stone made by May. At the same time as opening the store, a lot of adventurers and merchants pushed me and I was very busy that day. Essentially, I left the store number to May, and I was even working on putting magic into the junction stone. Thanks to the fact that I have quite a bit of stock, I don't think I have to go out to the store for a while.

While I was gone, Rico went to Krumfal territory and heard a report on the current situation. He has no particular major problems and is able to spend time. Looks like the fishermen haven't been out fishing in a long time, and fresh squid, fish, shellfish, etc. have been fried in water, so we have to go eat them again.

And at night, for the first time in a long time, we enjoyed our dinner slowly and we all had pudding to talk about the future of Krumfal territory.

"I'll tell you what I think about the future of Krumfal territory. Not absolutely, so if you've noticed anything, tell me. First, agriculture, but this has to get rid of the salt on the fields. I'll try that. And one more thing, I'm going to build a hotel near that town of Kyriek."

"Do you mean a hotel, like the one in that imperial capital, where you can stay?

"That's right. The fish over there is delicious. Also, the view is beautiful. Get guests from Imperial Capital to stay there. Or maybe a hotel where adventurers and travelers can stay. And expand the harbor. Over there, it will be a transportation hub to the north. The ship can stop there, and if there's a place to stay, the town will moisturize."

"Oh, is that possible to fulfill?

"I don't know if I can. But I think it's worth a shot."

"Sounds interesting!

"I agree with your husband, too."

"If that's what Mr. Linos is, I'll help!

Everyone seems to agree. Nevertheless, in my opinion alone, it is the main fall, so I decided to talk to the Krumfal people again when the territory settled down, and I decided to go to bed that day.

Me and Rico, Mae decide to head for a bath away. But May tried to head to the library upstairs.

"May, what's up?

"Oh, trying to do some research..."

"... because of this, why don't we take a bath together today?

"... are you sure?

"May, come in with me!

"... Hi."

That night we took a bath together for the first time in a long time and stayed in our room together.

The next morning, the three of us head to the dining room. I've been sweating quite a bit since morning, so Rico and May have a good face and look a little colorful for coming into the bath. I still get to the table, leaving me sleepy and carefree. Pallis and Ferris prepare breakfast as usual. Lately, for some reason, Luara has joined in that preparation. Even though he gave his apprentice no permission to live in this mansion, he is naturally working with us. However, since I live in Ferris' room, it may not even be comfortable.

And me and May go to the store, and Rico goes out to Krumfal. I will also head there to Miyagi, where I will meet His Majesty the Emperor and His Lordship the Chancellor to report on the tragic situation in Krumfal territory.

"... so we managed to resume fishing, but the farmland is untouched, and no harvest is expected"

"Hmm. I didn't know that was happening... There's a report coming up under Noh, is that so? Well, originally in that territory, we grew enough crops for the inhabitants to eat. Therefore, the only tax payable to the Empire is salt. Is salt hard, too?

"No, we've heard that the salt fields are back on track, so that's fine, but they're extremely likely to fall into food shortages anyway. Well, we'll figure it out for now, but if we can't do anything about it, we may ask His Majesty and His Highness the Chancellor."

"Well, then the Empire will strike some kind of hand."

"And Lord Linos, that hotel plan sounds interesting. I want to try the rest of those fish once. Besides, I haven't seen the ocean in a long time."

"Your Majesty cannot leave the Empire City."

"No, once in a while, I want to leave the administration and rest. Besides, Krumfal is going to be able to stay away from all the loud cabinet members and women and relax with the women he likes."

"If Your Majesty wishes, I am not stingy..."

"Your Majesty, you're in trouble. Don't neglect your affairs."

"Say what, Prime Minister. Isn't it the rest of fine government that leaves the inheritance? Why don't we cramp the back palace?"

"Sire!"

"Not right now. But at dawn, when Lord Linos' hotel is finished, I'll let him see the rest. That would be the case. It's like a castle built by my sister's son-in-law. Can't you tell the rest? Would that also be the role of a fine monarch?

His Excellency the Prime Minister, who made no sound whatsoever, bowed his head silently.

When I was tattooed by His Majesty and my normal life went by about a week, I had a visitor to the mansion that morning when I tried to use the store holidays to head to Krumfal territory.

As we all eat breakfast, a voice comes from the front door behind us.

"It's Pius! I have an urgent report!

To an unexpected visitor, me and Rico face each other. It's an emergency report, so I'll put you in the mansion and show you to a dining room where everyone can fit in. Pius briefly apologized to us for using the metastasis junction without authorization, spewing out words all at once

"It's tough. The towns of Kailiek and Tohotsu have been attacked by demons!
