Chapter 387. A weapon named faith (2)
Blind date.
A demonic word that touches the heartstrings of every single person living in this land.
A great opportunity for someone.
For others, it is a miserable humiliation.
A battlefield engraved with the blessing of glory to someone else.
That word, of course, also made the red dragon Solitas’ heart race.
Even though I don’t know exactly what the word is.
The moment I heard it, my heart skipped a beat.
I was pounding with excitement.
‘Introducing your new wife? To me? Is that a blind date? Then it must be similar to human matchmakers, right?’
It seemed like that.
Solitas’s heart suddenly became urgent.
“Is that true?”
“yes. maybe?”
“If you introduce me to a bride, can I get married now?”
“Well, it depends on Solitas-sama.”
“It sounds like you are responsible for the introduction.”
“yes. That’s it.”
“Then who is it?”
“A blind date?”
“okay.”
“It’s still a secret.”
“why?”
“You didn’t even listen to my request, did you?”
“….”
Oh, did this show too much impatience?
Solitas, who had regained his sanity slightly (?), took a step back.
“Oh hmmm! Big! then tell me What are you asking me to do?”
“It may be a little difficult, or it may be very easy.”
“You’re not asking me to burn more excrement from the people living here, are you?”
“Nothing. Could I ask you such a disgusting favor?”
“….”
enough.
I guess I will.
Solitas thought inwardly.
Lloyd’s calm and shameless words continued.
“Actually, the army of hell will attack in about three months. here.”
“what?”
“It will be quite a lot of troops, and it will take quite a bit of damage to fight against it.”
“So you want me to fight with you?”
“no.”
“then?”
“Before and after the scheduled date of invasion, I would like to evacuate the residents of the Prontera Territory and Lacona Viscounty to Solitas-sama’s lair, even if only for a few days.”
“…What?”
Solitas’ brow furrowed.
“What did you just say? in my rare? That many humans?”
“yes. A period of about 10 to 15 days seems to be sufficient.”
“I haven’t given permission yet?”
“I think you will.”
“Why am I for the likes of humans?”
“Not for humans, but for blind dates.”
“But no matter how much, I am exceeding my rare. Did you guys think I was easygoing? Do you dare to add smelly things to my rare?”
“I’ll wash it clean and let you enter.”
“Can not be done. To stay there and do something else.”
“Even if I tried, would I eat, sleep, and do more?”
“Is my rare an inn?”
“Instead, a happy blind date.”
“Are you ignoring my nest?”
“Instead, a fun blind date.”
“That’s a suggestion I also ignore.”
“Instead, a thrilling blind date.”
“Are you trying to play a joke with me?”
“Instead, a strange blind date.”
“dare….”
“A completely thrilling blind date.”
“…Joe is good.”
“Heh.”
Lloyd laughed wickedly.
Solitas blushed with shame and excitement.
So, this was an offer too tempting to reject in anger!
‘Whoa. It’s a blind date. I never thought that this kind of fate would come in my life. What kind of clothes do you wear that day? No, I just have to meet with my body. Then, after a long time, brush your horns. Shine the scales. After all, it would be best to apply wax and light a fire when polishing, right? Finish with cold water and a soft towel. From fire light to water light to glass film coating. That’s fine.’
It was a blind date that hadn’t been scheduled yet.
It was a blind date that I didn’t even know the face of yet.
However, Solitas unfolded his imagination as if he had already met an unknown blind date partner 100 times.
I also thought about how to fill out the marriage registration form.
Confused about what style to wear as a gift ring?
After all, I thought that a beach would be good for a honeymoon.
It was in the middle of pulling out a fruitful family plan in an A to Z style.
“Then you decided to listen to my request?”
Flutter!
Lloyd’s soft voice pierced my ear canal.
In addition, there was also the sound of flapping paper.
“….”
When he came to his senses (?), he found a document in his hand.
“What is this?”
“This is a short-term lease.”
“short-term…lease?”
“yes. As I said earlier, this is a contract that will open and lease Solitas-sama’s rare to the residents of our territory for up to fifteen days.”
“What the fuck….”
“blind date.”
“Can I sign here?”
“Yes, thank you.”
Finally, the contract was signed.
A satisfied smile appeared on Lloyd’s lips.
‘good. With this, the safety of the residents of the territory is secured.’
I felt a little reassured.
Solitas’ rare is quite far from here.
It was because there was enough space to accommodate all the residents of the territory.
As a dragon’s rarity, the defense and other facilities are full.
If there is shelter, the residents will be safe enough.
I won’t get caught up in the chaos that will happen here in the estate.
‘thank god.’
I blew my heart out.
But there were still problems left.
“Then when are you going to introduce your bridesmaids?”
“Once you get over this situation safely, I will do it.”
“Invasion of the Hell Legion?”
“yes.”
“What the hell did you do to go through such a thing? You.”
“That’s right.”
“Anyway, if you die, you’ll see that my blind date is gone too, right?”
“Perhaps?”
“Then don’t die.”
“yes. Thank you for the blessing.”
“But one more thing.”
“Do you have any questions?”
“of course. My bride-to-be, whom you introduce. Can you tell me a little bit about who it is?”
“…Oh, that’s a bit.”
“why?”
“Wouldn’t it be more exciting and exciting to meet without knowing?”
“Is that so?”
“yes. Of course.”
…The truth is not at all obvious.
It is natural to give information about the other person before a blind date.
But now?
I couldn’t.
‘Because I haven’t even looked for a blind date yet!’
It was.
Actually, it’s like arranging a blind date.
It was just a run.
It was all bullshit.
But I couldn’t help it.
‘First of all, it’s urgent to stop the invasion of the Hell Corps right now. Because I have to save the people of the territory first.’
The fire that fell on his feet was so hot.
I wanted to solve that first.
‘Then how about a blind date later? it will work out somehow. Then I have to go and work hard to find out about the mysterious female dragon.’
Although I have an irresponsible side to think of myself.
I really couldn’t help it now.
Lloyd shook his mind and put on a smile full of trust.
“Anyway, residents are expected to move in 85 days. I will gather the residents that day, so Solitas-sama can move them all with teleportation magic.”
“That many numbers? At the same time?”
“Are you in a hurry?”
“The dragon heart is empty and exhausted.”
“Is it impossible?”
“no. I didn’t say it was impossible.”
“great. Then, good luck on that day.”
“you also. don’t forget bride-to-be.”
“It’s fine.”
With that, the Villager Relocation Contract with Solitas is completed.
Lloyd was able to start his next job feeling much lighter.
‘The problem of evacuating residents has been solved. So now it’s time to prepare to use the holy water.’
Two billion liters of holy water to be made from the tears of the Left Angel.
how to use it
It was Lloyd who had already thought of that method.
I immediately climbed the Eastern Mountains.
We went to Lake Capua.
Coincidentally, Vibeongi was basking in the sun on a sandbar by the lake.
“Good. I had something to tell you.”
“…Do you laugh?”
Did you wake up after dozing off?
Bibeong, who is still in a prone position with only one eye open.
He explained what was going to happen from now on.
Hell Legion 2 billion liters of holy water, even the things you have to do to spread it destructively.
“…So I’m thinking of breaking it down, but here’s the lake bank. But I am saying this because I think I will need your permission to do so.”
In fact, if you look closely, it was Bibeongi who created this lake.
Bibeongi built a dam with the behavior of a beaver.
Because the dam is so large.
Indeed, a mountain lake comparable to Soyang Lake in Korea was created.
So, the owner of the embankment here could be said to be an idiot.
“Could you please allow me?”
Lloyd asked.
On the one hand, I was concerned.
Strictly speaking, he was a slanderer who was not loyal to himself.
It was a guy who followed this side only with interest and affection for Bell and participated in various construction projects.
So, what should I do if I refuse this request?
I also wondered if the bell should sell its name.
However, the answer that came back soon was….
“Byeom!”
“…uh? You say you’ll let me?”
“Beep! Scrub!”
“Isn’t it natural to cooperate when something like this happens?”
“Byeom!”
Unexpectedly, Bibeong readily nodded.
and said
“Byeom! beeping? Bumble. Scrub!”
“….”
It’s not because of the drops this time.
I believe in what you’ve done so far.
So this time I believe and follow you.
Instead, when this work is finished, let’s rebuild the broken embankment together.
Wouldn’t that be okay then?
“…thanks.”
Lloyd couldn’t help but say that.
Just like that, it was after I got the cool permission from Bibyeongi.
Lloyd was able to measure the lake shore with a much lighter heart.
An embankment blocking a lake.
from below to the manor.
I started scanning and analyzing all the terrain.
When a dam burst and caused a flood of 2 billion liters.
It was to reduce the damage to the territory to a minimum.
‘It must be a flood of unimaginable scale. If possible, only the Hell Legion should be wiped out. The damage to the village and existing facilities in the territory should be reduced as much as possible.’
There can be no damage at all.
But let’s wipe out the legions of hell.
He couldn’t sweep away the entire territory.
‘Like the Bayont Dam accident in Italy. If that happens, it’s over.’
It was a territory that had been cultivated with sincerity.
It was a clearing and various facilities that everyone made with blood and sweat.
I didn’t want to lose it in vain.
‘To do that, we need to open a path for the two billion liters of holy water that will overflow when the dam collapses. You have to make the holy water flow through the designated path. And yet, we have to achieve that result with minimal construction without waste.’
It wasn’t going to be easy.
No, in a way, it must have been the most dangerous and bold challenge among the construction projects that have been undertaken so far.
‘But I can. They also have surveying skills. I also have design skills. Just trust the simulation option. you can do it. So let’s not get tired. let’s do it. I’m working harder.’
Lloyd hung on all day only to measure so that the blood vessels in his eyes burst.
I walked without rest even when I was tired.
Sometimes I rode a twine and flew.
the widest possible range.
as detailed as possible.
We surveyed and obtained data without omission.
Based on that, we established a plan and drafted a rough design.
‘It’s just a matter of thinking that the river embankment is constructed in a slightly special way.’
embankment construction.
They made the most of those principles.
Main Levee and Secondary Levee to be constructed on the path where 2 billion liters of holy water will flow.
Cross Levee to fix the channel in which the holy water flows.
Opne Levee for full-fledged flood control.
In addition, there is an overflow levee in case the holy water overflows from the main stream.
In addition, I thought of and combined numerous structures.
Of course, on the other hand, the next plan was also prepared.
It was to inform the residents of the territory about the invasion of the Hell Corps.
‘Because I can’t just keep it a secret.’
Now, there were only 90 days left until the invasion of the Hell Legion.
In the meantime, I needed everyone’s cooperation to make various preparations.
In order to get cooperation, you will have to reveal the facts.
‘And the evacuation plan, too. You have to let us know in advance. That way everyone can prepare their hearts.’
otherwise?
What if the invasion of the Hell Legion was imminent before the fact was announced?
Everyone will panic.
No matter how well-conceived the plan is.
In such a state, it was obvious that every step of the plan’s execution would be subject to unexpected variables.
‘It’s better to inform in advance. That way the confusion will be minimized.’
Of course, there will be no commotion.
Perhaps there will also be an exodus of residents.
I’m afraid I can’t
I’m afraid I won’t be able to follow you.
Those who abandon the territory and run away or leave forever will appear one after another.
But Lloyd thought it was something he had to endure.
‘Because it can’t be helped. In fact, everyone’s life may be in danger. To remain unconditionally in the manor. Follow my plan. I just need to take refuge in Solitas’ Lair. I can’t force it blindly like that.’
So even if some territories turn their backs.
Even if the number is considerably higher than expected.
let’s not be disappointed
Let’s not be heartbroken.
Lloyd made a promise to himself.
But it was in the middle of that.
Ding dong!
“uh?”
Suddenly, an alarm sounded in my head.
Before long, an unexpected message appeared in front of my eyes.
[The residents of Prontera Territory are shocked.]
[Through the testimony of Raphael, the Left Angel who cannot lie, the inhabitants of the Territory learned the truth about the invasion of the Hell Corps.] [
But no one of the Territory intends to leave the Territory No.]
[Rather, they are all sincerely grateful to you for preparing the evacuation plan for Yeongjimin as a top priority and sending their worries and support.
] We are determined with one heart and one mind that we should all help Lloyd-sama.] ‘
What is this….’
The waves of messages that continue to emerge after that.
Lloyd’s eyes widened.
On the one hand, he realized.
Unexpected.
didn’t expect
A small miracle was happening.
