Episode 651 Heterogeneous Kingdom (3)
Youngji is literally a beggar.
Although the goblins had made progress thanks to their hard work, it was far from enough to compare with other kingdoms.
There was no decent building for the guests to rest, so Ray was also in trouble.
“Rest anywhere you like.”
“Where are you going to rest?”
Gregory complained as if he was in trouble.
old shack.
Inside, the floor was all worn out and was about to crumble, and when it rained, water leaked from the ceiling.
“Since when did envoys from other countries hide their places?”
Even though he said it himself, he talks while looking at the distant mountain, as if he is stabbed by his conscience.
Selena, frightened by the bugs passing by, shook her head violently.
“I can’t live in a place like this! Please make a new room!”
It wasn’t just her that I didn’t like.
While the imperial officials protested, nobles from other kingdoms also joined in.
“No matter how much Holy Son, this is a little…”
“The bigger the country, the better the treatment of the envoys. Please think again.”
As they gathered their voices, even Ray could not ignore them.
“It’s so neat.”
Creeping- creaking-
Stepping on the floor screaming every time you walk, you step outside.
Workers were needed to repair it.
Looking around, I saw goblins passing by just in time.
“The three of you, come over here!”
gestured towards them.
He often jumps with innocent eyes as if he heard the voice.
“Did you call?”
“I need some help with my work.”
“Tell me.”
Third-generation goblins are easy to use because they communicate well and are dexterous.
In addition, they learn faster than others, so if you teach them one thing, they can break both.
‘It would be nice if I could at least teach carpentry.’
Having made up his mind, he began to draw a line on the ground.
“From now on, we will build a building here.”
“yes? Is that a building?”
“If it’s a building…”
“It’s a place for distinguished guests from other countries to stay. The bigger the better.”
The goblins expressed disapproval at those words.
It’s not a hut or a hut, but a building.
Even if only a few artisan goblins gathered together, it was difficult.
They looked at each other and hesitated.
“God said… I’ll call the grandpa goblin from the back room.”
“no. We take care of this.”
we?
The goblins’ eyes widened.
“We never learned carpentry.”
“You can learn from now. First of all, make a tree around you.”
He puts an ax in his hand and talks.
The dumbfounded goblins had to cut down trees as if possessed by something.
There are only three of them.
It took an absurdly small amount of manpower to build a large building.
The nobles who were watching from the back gasped.
“Saint, no matter how hard it is to make the goblins work…”
“Trust me and leave it to me. Even if they look like that, they are incredibly good at one thing.”
What on earth do you believe and say?
Even for a skilled human carpenter, it would take months.
However, a monster that has not learned anything builds a building.
It was something they couldn’t easily understand.
“I’m sorry, but while the shelter is being completed, please use that cabin. It will be finished soon.”
“Soon, when…”
“Three days is enough to complete a place to stay.”
three days?
Are you saying that they will complete the place they will be staying in at most three days?
It was absurd when I heard it, but seeing what the saint said, I couldn’t even refute it.
After drooling ‘Kkeeung’, they finally agreed.
“All right. Then see you in three days.”
When Gregory greeted Ray, he raised his hand and accepted it.
“You must be tired, so go in and rest.”
“…yes.”
I was tired from the long journey, but I wanted to refrain from resting in a place like that.
In particular, in the case of Selena, who hates insects, her complexion turned white.

As they turned around with a sigh, Ray began to gain ground in earnest.
“It’s roughly the size…”
As I glanced around, the trees got in the way.
In order to expand the size, it seemed that the forest needed to be cut down a little.
“Young car.”
Since I decided not to use mana, everything was done manually.
When he knocks on a tree with his ignorantly developed body, the thick tree splits open.
The beautiful scenery was overturned and only desolate tree roots were left alone.
Ray then skillfully removed rocks and tree roots from the ground.
How does the process flow like water?
By the time the goblins returned from cutting down a few trees, the work of clearing the ground was almost finished.
“Wow.”
“You are amazing, God.”
The goblins were genuinely amazed.
In less than an hour at most, the grounds were all cleaned up.
Even the artisan goblins could not help but be surprised to have completed the work that took two days by themselves.
Ray, whose nose was raised, moved his gaze to the tree they had cut down this time.
Wood quality is better than expected.
It was like a miracle that this amount of wood was grown in the wasteland of the territory.
‘This is a bit of a taste to work with.’
He sighed and wiped his hands.
“Today I will get enough lumber. Get some wood and build it here.”
The tree that has just been cut has oil and sap remaining.
It cannot be processed into wood unless it is naturally dried for a day or so.
Fortunately, it was well ventilated and the humidity wasn’t high, so it was a pretty good environment for drying.
“How much can I build?”
“Heavy.”
“Would that be enough for twenty trees?”
“Pile up heaps.”
“…”
I don’t know what it means, but it must mean that twenty trees are not enough.
At some point, Ray’s appearance on the job became seriously similar to that of Derp.
It was the same just by looking at the way he ordered the work with his arms crossed.
Even the tone of voice was different from usual, so the goblins noticed the difference and moved quickly.
In the meantime, Ray went into trimming the tree.
The bark is peeled and the twigs are shaken off to form a shape suitable for use as wood.
He pulled out the sword stuck in his waist and trimmed the wood to the point where it was easy to build a building, so now all that was left was to dry it.
“Ah, while I was thinking about it, I should make something else.”
Looking down at the wood, he picked it up and put it somewhere else.

Soyoung hesitantly came downstairs.
There were guards who were lined with wounds.
Jeokyoung, who could not even stand properly, waved his hand.
“Long time no see.”
“Mmm.”
Soyoung, who was about to say hello, swallowed her saliva.
It seemed that the state of Jeokyoung could not be said to be good even if it was a lie.
Thanks to drinking the potion, I recovered a lot, but the wounds on my chest and side haven’t healed yet, so pus is seeping out.
On the other hand, he looked fine, so he lost his face even more.
“…Sorry.”
Soyoung apologized in a hoarse voice.
“…I don’t understand. Why are you apologizing?”
Black Spirit tilted his head and said.
“Because I ran away, you guys…”
“That was Hongyeong’s order. If I were in the same place as you, I would have followed your orders. Also, you should know better that it would be the right decision for even one person to run away to call for support.”
“…”
When So-young was silent, Heuk-young patted her on the shoulder once.
“It’s good to reflect on abandoning your comrades and running away, but don’t be weighed down by guilt. That’s not like you.”
Wasn’t that thought unique to Dark Spirit?
The guards looked at Soyoung and did not rebuke her.
Rather, most of the reactions were laughing and enjoying her new appearance.
Soonbok came down the stairs, dragged a chair, and sat down.
-Isn’t it harming me because of your incompetence? Seven people gathered together and couldn’t protect a single territory. Tsk tsk.
Thanks to Soonbok who destroyed the good atmosphere, not only Soyoung but also everyone in the reception desk hardened a little.
Certainly.
The receiving committee themselves were not helping at all.
The development of the territory was thanks to the goblins, and it was purely thanks to the power of Ray and Subok that the territory was defended in the battle against the Black Bang.
Of course, we got information and cooperated with the upper half of Hafman, but in the end it didn’t work out.
Hongyoung bit her lip.
“…That’s right. We didn’t do anything.”
“….”
“..”
The mighty power of those who serve it.
Those who became servants in front of him felt a wall.
I had to despair at the mighty height that I couldn’t bear to overcome.
It was no different with Hongyoung.
When the person he served is trapped in the demonic realm.
When I fought against the monsters in the ‘warring land’ with the elves.
Didn’t do anything.
‘I don’t want to be like that anymore…’
Wasn’t that desire not just her own?
Each of the receptionists had expressions that seemed deep in thought.
How silent were you?
Hongyeong let out a small breath and looked around the receiver with serious eyes.
“Let’s leave.”
“….”
“….”
“As of now, it is not helpful to the Holy Son. At least if you don’t get stronger… there’s no receptionist.”
It’s a simple word, but the meaning is heavy.
In other words, there is no need for an unhelpful receptionist to exist.
“…are you serious?”
Responds to Cheongyoung’s question with a small nod.
At that, Jeokyoung struggled to raise his body.
He doesn’t seem to care even though blood is seeping out of the wound.
“If it’s something Hong Young has decided… I’ll just follow it.”
“…But the receptionist left the person they served on their own. I don’t think it’s anything but wrong.”
Heukyoung objected, but this time, Bloodyoung spoke.
“The result is now. Do you still see us in tatters as one of the three families?
“…”
The words stabbed like a dagger, and the mouth of the black young stopped.
They were silent again.
in a cold room.
There was only the sound of slow breathing.
