On the second day at the construction site of the planned city, we were walking towards the area marked on the blueprint where the walls would be erected when I felt like there were so presences who seed to be approaching because they saw Sophia and Marnie.
And as I had suspected, they ca to bother Sophia and Maria.
「Hey there, Elf-oneechan, Rabbit-oneechan. You’re so hella sexy.」
「Hihihi, they totally help release our motivation, don’t they?」
「Yeah, won also need soone to embrace them, yanno?」
When Sophia and Marnie ignored them completely, the n escalated more and more.
These guys are criminal slaves, aren’t they? What are the elves managing them doing? Are they trying to pick a fight with ?
「Hey you! Don’t ignore ! 」
「Ora! Rabbit! You’re just a trophy slave, aren’t cha!?」
I think I heard sothing snap inside .
「「「Hiik!?」」」
When my anger leaked out and was directed at the n, the criminal slaves who were cursing us out just a second ago were now shaking uncontrollably.
「Oi! You! What are you doing away from your station!?」
An Elven knight sensed sothing abnormal and jumped in.
Sophia dealt with the knight, explaining what we were here to do today, to which the knight’s face paled.
「My sincere apologies, Iruma-dono. You had co at the request of our country, and yet you have been offended……」
「Not at all, I accept your apology. So please don’t apologize too much.」
It’s not a good idea for the Elven knight apologizing repeatedly to . I was angry at the idiots, and I did think the elf managing them was also at fault, but it’s enough if I receive an apology.
The criminal slaves who ssed with Sophia and Marnie were dragged away by the knights of Yggurle Kingdom.
How could the three of them skip out on work and wander around?
「Takumi-sama, please don’t be too mad.」
「She’s right. We are fine.」
「…………」
「I’m happy that Takumi-sama got mad at them for us though……」
「Indeed. Friction in a country’s venture would be awkward.」
「……yeah. I also lost my cool back there.」
I couldn’t oppose the warnings from Sophia and Marnie.
I have a feeling my father once told that in a household, the stronger the wife is, the better. Though it was way too long ago and vague.
Refocusing myself, I started on the walls that would beco the cornerstone of this fortress city.
Gogogogooooo!!
It will stand at 10 ters, it was a bit lower than Wedgefort’s 15 ter walls, with a thickness of 3 ters compared to Wedgefort’s 3.5 ters. Outside of it, there will be a moat with a depth of 4 ters and a width of 8 ters. The earth would be turned into solid stone, and supplent this by applying it with 『Harden』 to complete the sturdy fortress walls.
It will take 5 days to surround the city with the walls. The fact that it would take half the days I took in Wedgefort was because the city was smaller in size, but it might have also been influenced by my personal growth. It would take another two days to build two side towers and a gate.
Gogogogooooo!!
「W- what in the world is that……」
Seeing that the earth rise completing the moat, and an imposing wall built in the blink of an eye right in front of him, the civil official Holt who was dispatched to this site was stock-still from shock.
He had heard that Earth Magic was being used for construction, but in truth, Holt was one of the people who ridiculed that. So much so that there was a fixed notion within them that magic was ant to be used for combat.
He had been surprised that Takumi finished preparing the soil in the city in no ti at all, but when he saw the fortress walls and side towers in a flash, he wondered what the Elves had been doing up until now.
However, Elves lived very long lives so they felt no need to rush in construction.
「Would this not be a imnsely effective for constructing field encampnts?」
The astounding spectacle before Holt made his senses change.
There were probably very few Elves who would be able to use Takumi’s thod of combining alchemy and skillful use of Earth Magic. No, perhaps none. Furthermore, it was certain that this Human surprisingly possessed even more magic power than Elves.
Takumi was soone that even the Miss Sophia of the Sylphide family, a war hero, followed constantly. Sophia’s appearance in such a way was nothing short of a surprise to the knights of Yggurle Kingdom.
Holt thought that upon his return to the Royal Capital, he should research the uses of Earth Magic in construction and architecture.
Though it should be considered that there were few Elves who had the aptitude for the Earth attribute.
