Clearing the Game at the End of the World Chapter 303

Chapter. 15. Can someone who has seen the end of the world plant an apple tree? (6)

“It seems difficult to go any further. “The weight of the device is too much to be dragged by spirit power alone.”

“okay. This is a lot. “Thank you for your hard work, Idrasil.”

The professor took a deep breath of the dry air and prepared to jump off the balloon.

In the end, Dana did not return to the chat room after that day. After hearing various stories, I was scared that something was wrong at the hospital, but fortunately, Holly, who came to see Dana, told me that everything was fine, so I was able to put my mind at ease. Something could happen at any time and I suddenly lost contact with the other person, but I felt helpless, unable to do anything and not knowing what was going on. This must be how Dana felt.

Without realizing it, my relaxed heart was tightened. Let’s go out. I will save everyone here in 3 World, and with that, I will save my life. Let’s go out and buy Dana some clothes and show her that she doesn’t have to worry.

Such thoughts spurred the group’s journey into the desert.

After parting ways with Astrad and the others at Wuthering Heights. The balloon, which had been slowly sinking as it crossed the ridge of the Blue Line, flew much farther than it was supposed to, thanks to the support of the wind spirit of Idrasil and a lucky good wind, and was on its way to landing.

“Idrasil. But is it really okay to stop by your hometown and come back? “Since there was such a big incident in the empire, it’s natural for the Great Mother to be worried.”

“Do you miss the person you saw in the morning at lunchtime?”

“huh?”

“Only a few months. For humans who can only remember their crumbling lives, it is time to accumulate quite a bit of longing, but for elves, the life wears off slowly and thinly. I’m sorry, but even now I can remember the order in which I watered the bonsai tree the morning I left Canelan. “Because the memory has not worn out, it means that the longing has not accumulated.”

“Um… if it’s okay with you. I’ll get off soon, so go and wake up Otman and Notum. “Because it might shake a little.”

“yes.” While

Idrasil

went to wake the two people up in the living space on one side of the apparatus, the professor lowered the thick rope and looked closely at the ground beneath his feet through the dim dawn light.

Fortunately, there were many places to land to avoid private houses or roads.

“Thank goodness it’s early spring.”

The place they arrived now was Teldrat, a country famous for being a golden granary.

Cooung.

Twaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

The professor who jumped out of the balloon held on to the rope connected to the balloon, and while his feet were being pulled by extra strength, he created two long furrows in the cold, still rough field.

The hurried alarm bells of sleepy guards and the barking of dogs awakened the peaceful dawn of Teldrat’s city of Kalashan.

****

“Thank you for your hospitality, my lord.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha! Thank you. Isn’t it the duty of nobles to treat precious people as they deserve? It’s a shame that we haven’t been able to properly show you the abundance of Teldrat since we’ve just entered winter! Oh, this is an appetizer, so just to whet your appetite-”

“That’s enough. For a country waging war, there seems to be too much food. For Haram teaches us to abstain from luxury.”

“That’s right! Ah, the table was already overcooked, so all that was left was junk from the street… Oh no! “I thought I would share it with the people!”

Hororok –

The professor nodded his head seriously, looking solemn as he looked at the struggling young man in front of him.

Snap-

[Otman, the wine here is really good.]

[Hmm. surely. It’s restrained enough to feel polite.]

[Use. I’d like to get a few bottles. I’m trying to show off my temper by pretending to be frugal, so it’s difficult right now… I’ll have to tell the butler secretly before I go.]

[The meat is delicious. I have to make an offering to my ancestors who helped me in the empire, so just ask for one more white cow.]

[Okay, okay. Let’s ask for everything. Idrasil, what are you writing like that in front of the dinner table?]

[This is a record of the not-so-evil duality of humans.]

Of course, while admiring the amazing steamed fish and wine, which were disparaged as mere appetizers, I thought about robbing them of things to use in the desert. It was just that.

If Rodrik extends thinly to the south, centering on a wide territory in the east, especially in the north, based on the blue line, the city-state alliance is located near the upper right corner of Rodrik, which resembles a wide triangle, and Teldrat lies below it in the eastern part of the continent. occupies the remainder.

In short, if Roderick faces the frozen ground in the north, Teltrat faces the desert area in the east.

The professor and his party, who landed from the balloon and were obediently arrested by the Kalashan guards, proudly revealed the name of the saint and were waiting to see how well the name would be accepted in Teldrat.

“When I think about how many people in the city are preparing for spring hunger and eating a single grain of wheat, I can’t get over the fatty food easily.”

“That saint. As someone who manages the city’s finances, I can tell you that last year’s Kalashan harvest was not that bad, so I wasn’t that hungry…”

Taaaaaah!

“Uh-huh, Treasurer! How dare you express a difference of opinion with the words of the saint! Isn’t this a lack of faith? “I was already planning to open a warehouse and provide relief to the people!”

What the hell.

“Hmm. A true believer. Ah, thinking about the people who will be happy after eating their fill makes me want to thank Lo Haram. Since I have a seat, I will wait a bit and pray in my room separately-”

“Put your thoughts away! The prayer of a saint! You can do it right here without having to go far! “If it is the saint’s prayer, it is no different from blessings falling on the castle!”

Hey!

“…I think it will take about five hours. I’m sure it’ll be fine. If one person uses the drawing room for that long, the Baron’s business will be-”

“It’s okay! It’s okay! Hello! Immediately clear the table and leave the sutras and prayers! “Call priests from the nearby Gwangmyeong Church to help the Holy Son pray!”

Look at this?

The Kalashan Baron is willing to do anything, as if there is no greater joy than this, even if the request is not only a little unreasonable, but almost rude. The professor tried hard not to laugh as he watched his surroundings change from a living room to a prayer room in an instant.

[Do you think this will be done no matter what I say? What else should I ask you to do? Should I ask you to make a ‘good faith’ donation? I heard that the Lord of Teldrat has a lot of money.]

[This is a reaction that cannot be understood through common sense. The lord of Kalashan was confirmed to be a member of the Cult of Courage as it is on the border of the empire, and there was only a temple of the Cult of Courage in the territory, but no temple of light.] [

Of course. I wonder if the Baron here is so religious that he would treat me like this.]

You can tell just by looking at those eyeballs that they are rolling around while they keep clapping as if it is my pleasure.

That person doesn’t treat me like this because I’m a saint.

To be precise, he is ‘a saint who recently became involved with Lady Lucilla Aedran and made her daughter the empress of the empire’, which is why he is making such a fuss.

Even when Lucilla ran away from the family, she was ‘just a daughter of the Aedran family with some respect. ‘Scheduled for an arranged marriage as the second wife of a certain family’ was all that was evaluated about her.

But he left home and joined the saint’s group? Soon, rumors spread that the ladies’ last gamble, [Suitor of Teldrat], was not selling, and ‘Oh my gosh, Aedran’s golden tier is also on the decline!’ I laughed at him, but he became a truly legendary figure and took the position of empress of the empire! It was grabbed.

The Baron and the Treasurer, who had gone outside to make a place for prayer, could be heard talking about ‘Emperis Maker’ and which of their three daughters seemed objectively the best.

Hmm. He is a saint who made a wealthy nobleman with three daughters and a girl who was poorly regarded in social circles into an empress in a matter of months. Even if I were in the Baron’s position, I would still be anxious to look good.

If this was just a rumor or something to get caught, the lord of a territory wouldn’t have come out in such a low-key manner, but judging from the physiognomy of a cool-headed nobleman, my position is quite good. Even putting aside the story of the suitor, he is the one who proved the emperor’s coronation ceremony.

A person who will be close to the emperor for generations -> A person who must be looked after by the imperial nobility for generations -> A person with connections to most of the empire’s nobility.

This means that if I just introduce them appropriately, I will be matched with someone who is much more valuable than the nobles you would normally meet in social circles. Since this place is already a Blue Line border area, there will be even more interest in the Empire’s marriage.

So even if I’m being picky like this on purpose. It would be like a tongue in your mouth.

Test results. Professor Saint is invincible and a god in the noble estate of Teldrat.

[There will be no need to worry about supply.]

[If possible, I tried to get support from the Gwangmyeong Church, but Gwangmyeong is also pouring money into the front lines like water. It would have been difficult to provide support to nobles who had already sold everything they had to sell after the fall harvest and through the winter. I’m glad I got there.]

In the drawing room, where all of Baron’s people had already left and only the group was left, the professor thought as he gulped down the water on the altar they had quickly set up.

[Now that I’ve come this far, I plan to scrape everything I can.]

[Hmm. I’ve been feeling strangely burning my will for some time now…]

[I have to work hard. Because people’s lives are at stake.]

Taaagh!

The professor neatly emptied the water bowl prepared in place of the holy water bowl and looked back at Kalashan territory with eyes burning with determination.

As the Baron said, I planned to enjoy the appetizer in moderation in order to fully enjoy the whole meal.

Beyond. It is a territory with a granary area several times as rich as this place.

Although the road to the desert area would take a bit of a detour, the professor planned to stop by the Aedran territory while he was in Teldrat.

****

“Oh my! “You were thinking of going to Aedran Territory!”

“….exactly. “I was wondering if I could get some cooperation regarding the supply of military supplies.”

“Huhmm… military provisions. “You seem to have been entrusted with important work at the denominational level, but this has become a real problem.”

“Do you have any problem.”

With a little force, I could have taken down the storehouses of Kalashan Territory here, but if there were rumors that lords were sitting on the streets of each territory the saint passed by, the Aedran family might be wary, so I stopped at a moderate amount and took it out without paying anything. I felt sorry for what I ate, so I accepted the lord’s invitation to have tea.

I wondered if it would happen, but as expected, it ended up being an event with the lord’s three daughters. I was planning to let it flow like a moderate stream and pass it off by arguing, but the conversation about the destination suddenly stopped me.

“It’s a problem… of course. “If it’s Aedran, there’s a rather mysterious problem.”

“secret?”

“yes. There are rumors going around that the Aedran family’s fortunes have declined considerably in recent months. Even if the family’s fortunes are in decline, the Golden Family’s reputation is such that it is possible to provide support for the saint’s personal work, but it does not have the capacity to take charge of the supply of that wide front… Umm. I wonder if the precious person who represents Gwangmyeong is wasting his time…”

Crispy!

“Oh my teacup…!”

What kind of nonsense is that?

Aedran. Aedran, who was rumored to be richer than the royal family of Teldrat in terms of cash assets, was captured by a dragon after telling a nonsense story that the 3rd generation head of the family could buy even a hatchling with money, but the dragon, who had just peeled off the flesh and ate it, returned the remains and said, ‘It was a lie. What’s going on with the Golden Family Aedran, who said, ‘It’s hard to see, so I’ll leave the family as is’? The tide is tilting?!

For the professor, who was dreaming of soon invading the Aedran family and getting compensation for Lucilla’s matchmaking service, it was like a bolt from the blue.

“How on earth can I get this! Saint, where were you injured-”

“You’re okay, my lady. The teacup is a bit… soft. Anyway, I think it’s a little hard to believe the rumor the Baron said. Perhaps the Baron was listening to a small rumor tinged with jealousy… Recently, the daughter of the Aedran family has become the mother of the empire, so isn’t it natural for some to be jealous?”

“When I first heard it, I thought it was just cheap gossip from many social circles that would get you kicked. Until I received a letter from the Aedran family asking if I could get some funds in their name. Still, I couldn’t believe it, so I looked into it and found out that close to one-third of the famous golden top was sold out, and a large number of good horses and carriages were released into the market. The number was so great that the price of horses in Teldrat plummeted-”

Crack!

“Te table!”

“Uh um… I think the table is a little soft too. “Stop because you’re so shocked.”

While the servants were busy cleaning up the broken teacups and the Baron’s three daughters were pouring tea, the marble table on which the professor lightly placed his hand was carved into the shape of the professor’s fingers.

Even if everything else is the same, it is a fact that cannot be left out or ignored if the top part has been sorted out.

As even Dragon acknowledged, the Albuza family is suffering from financial difficulties. How did the money demon family, who said they never run out of money even if they build new dwarven walls in all of Teldrat’s territory, end up like that?

‘During previous play, was there a case where the top of the Gold Geyser was completely damaged?’

[I don’t remember that.]

‘So you’re saying it happened because you came to my world and touched something?’

[Right.]

‘What is it? The only one related to Aedran is Lucilla. By any chance, Lucilla becomes empress and the system becomes balanced? ‘Isn’t this a game that operates so artificially?’

No matter how much I thought about it, I had no involvement with the Aedran family and I had no influence over them.

Aedran is ruined. The upper part is sold and a credit loan is taken out. Where did all that mountain of gold go? the rich. When an absurdly rich person goes bankrupt. That much money suddenly seemed like a ghost…

“Ah.”

Memories of the past flash through my mind like lightning.

———

Goldman SUCKS: Hehehehehehehe

———

That guy didn’t say anything in the chat room for a while, but then he suddenly came out and started laughing.

“no way….?”

———

– Goldman SUCKS: Heh heh heh. It’s him. Goods do not disappear in an instant like this. This means that if something is purchased, the value is simply transferred to the item, and the great family does not become a debtor. He’s the only one who can waste money so much that it deviates from economic logic… That bastard! Even if you grind bones to make carbon diamonds and sell them, you’re like a beggar and a foot wrap!

———

“Roman… Roman Gachia Manson?”

“ah. Did you also know? Recently, the head of the Aedran family seemed to be possessed by something and talked about a huge investment in social circles, but when the response was not positive, it seems that they started a business of their own. It is said that it is so secret that the Yeongju Castle is closed, outsiders are not allowed in, and anyone entering the territory is thoroughly checked. Tsk tsk tsk. It is said that even if a rich person falls, three generations will survive. How can it be that the golden Aedran falls so easily?…”

After that, what happened to the lord’s military business, and their Kalashan territory also had a good harvest last fall, so the church and supplies I kept talking about how I could handle the deal, but it didn’t reach anyone’s ears.

———

– Goldman SUCKS: In the end, the great matriarch of Aedran also fell under his spell! It looks great! Carlsted Aedran! Even though I couldn’t surpass you as a merchant! Even you couldn’t escape from that damn guy’s clutches! Hahaha! I never thought I would see Aedran clean up his business and go around borrowing money in my lifetime! Hahahahahaha!

– takealook: It’s also 3 World’s self-destruct button. No matter who your opponent is, you are merciless!

– Roru Drug: Do it! Authentic gacha doesn’t have a gentle system like a ceiling! Those who can’t do it won’t be able to do it for the rest of their lives!

– Goldman SUCKS: Hehehe… He’s not your average devilish bastard. The more you have a business eye, the more clearly you can see his vision, so you will be captivated and pour money into it! And it’s ruined! Cruelly! Between a failed work whose value is unrecognizable to anyone but the gnome and the player, and a pile of magic gemstones with all the magical power of rare metals drained of all new types of magical power, making it impossible to even cover the cost!

-Goldman SUCKS: Ah, Professor Park! Hurry and go to Aedran Territory! Go and see a mountain of empty shells of large, high-end magic stones worth tens of millions of shillings each! I want you to see the head of Aedran before my eyes, looking up with vain eyes at a toy made by crushing a truck with minerals similar to gems, such as meteorites and the heart of the earth! right now! Hahahahaha!!!!!

Roman Gachia Manson. Also known as Roman Gacha Man.

This is an inventor class that brought about the technological uniqueness of an era, and a hero unit famous for being an infamous NPC that drew bloody tears from the eyes of countless territory players.

‘Hot hot hot! Hot hot hot hot hot! Success! In the end, I succeeded!’

The professor, who remembered him lifting [Prototype Aircraft No. 1] while laughing like a broken man, began to be genuinely worried about Aedran Youngji.

‘….He’s the guy who ruined a large estate the size of Goldman’s, even when he was developing while hesitating between failure and success. ‘How much of a monster did the guy who rushed forward, confident of success, to create the masterpiece of his life turn into?’

Even when he was kicked out of his family and went to gambling places, he couldn’t give up expensive magic metals like gongmanstones, so he resorted to theft. He has no brakes in that area.

The professor spoke to the Baron, whose face was full of worry and anticipation, recalling the Aedran territory collapsing in real time and the head of the Aedran family watching it.

“As for going to Aedran Territory… I guess I’ll have to wait until next time.”

“Well thought out. “Count Aedran, who is cornered, may be able to ask for support from the church.”

———

– Goldman SUCKS: No! You won’t go to Aedranga! I must see him fail with my own eyes! Oh, how much will it be? How much would you give him to throw a silver coin in his face and laugh at him?

– professor: No matter how much I pay, I won’t go there.

———

When the professor arrived at Aedran Castle, he could easily picture Manson smiling brightly and repeatedly shouting ‘Friend!’ just like before. And next to him, Aedran’s matriarch with a devastated face staring at his enemy’s ‘friend’ as if he were going to kill him.

‘I do not know. Lucilla will do something. It’s the golden top. She is the empress of the new empire. You’ll figure it out on your own, right? maybe? do?’

The professor chose to take a step back, ignoring the disaster he had created with his own hands.

I feel sorry for Lucilla and the Aedran family, but he is someone who must hurry to clear the path as quickly as possible and return to reality.

When I thought of Manson, who would stick to me like a leech even if I went nearby, the desire to go there disappeared.

“If Aedran is so. “I want to know the way to the desert.”

“It’s a desert. It is a place where the sun and mystery flow. “If you help me just a little bit, I will spare no effort in supporting your steps.”

“hmm. The Baron is a great man who speaks well. Umm….Latura. “This too is clearly the guidance of light.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha. Ratura. That’s a fair statement! Instead of doing this, would you like to have a drink and talk?”

“That’s good news. Now that I think about it, I know of a few families that are rushing to marry their heirs due to the disaster in the imperial capital and the vacant position of the head of the family…”

“Oooh!”

An extremely cordial conversation began between the saint and the baron, who turned away from the topic of the ‘Aedran family’ as if he were turning his head away from something dirty.

I thought it was a good thing that Lucilla stayed in the empire and was not with the group. If Lucilla had been here, she would have definitely been dragged away and caught up in the action.

Manson is a really good person, a great friend, and a capable person, but

he had too many criminal records to be trusted in that regard.
