The city wall erected by Terra was finally completed. This was a rough wall of compressed dirt. It was nothing close to the grandeur of the Capital city, but considering it was erected in less than a month by a single person, it could be considered a miracle.
So far, we hadn’t gotten any signs from bandits or monsters. Since we were in the wilderness, the bandits avoided this area, as they considered it not worth the time. Besides the fact that few merchants made it this far west, there was also a certain level of danger given the monsters in this area. It would be far too much trouble to attack such an out of the way city that offered little wealth.
As for monsters, the Bandits didn’t know that the existence of Karr Dungeon had kept the place safe from monster attacks. The symbiotic relationship between Hell and the Demon King’s Castle was a rare event. Most dungeons were territorial and avoided each other. There were even records of some dungeons getting too close and then destroying each other.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter the destruction of Karr Dungeon, it turned out that Chalm had been protected by Astria. She was still a dungeon boss, so using the fairy spring I built, she had kept any monsters from attacking. Then, when I finally built my dungeon, it finally set in stone the safety of Chalm. Yet, now that Chalm was growing wealthier, it might start gaining the interest of certain bandits. That was why the wall was built.
However, when it came to my war against Reign, the army still needed a month or two, and the city needed better protection. We’d have to start working on a real wall soon enough.
“I can do better,” Terra responded.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“My Earth Manipulation is getting better. I can compress the dirt to be many times firmer than before. If you give me time, master, I can give you a city wall harder than steel!”
Terra took my desire to bring in labor as a personal challenge. Since Terra said to trust her, I definitely would. After completing the wall, she began working on improving it. She compressed the dirt over and over again. She gave me a sample of what the compressed dirt felt like, and it did approach a metal-like consistency. I was impressed. Plus, compared to the mound-like dirt wall that currently existed, the compressions had caused the surface to smooth out, giving the city wall a sandstone like appearance, except in a darker shade of brown that approached black. Actually, now that I looked at it, with grey streaks, it sort of looked like obsidian and gave the feeling of a dark or cursed wall that felt intimidating.
Well, no one ever said a city wall should be inviting. At least we were protected.
I checked on all of the girls, one after another. Lydia was giving out Swordsman drills to the most promising students. Celeste was flying around singing, which turned out to be a magic that caused good feelings and increased productivity. This sort of felt like population control, but I decided not to think about such things so much. Shao was in the dungeon, practicing her shadow control.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMiki was going around using her spiritualism to help people. She particularly focused on the elderly. It turned out that her time in the slave caravans had spread throughout the city, and she had grown into a bit of a popular consultant for those coping with loss and death. Although she never claimed to be able to talk to people’s ghosts like the spiritualists of my world, she seemed to be good at providing comfort to such people.
In fact, the only one who didn’t seem to have anything to do was me. I followed the mayor around for a bit, but after two days of it, I felt like he was intentionally trying to avoid me. I then went to the Adventuring Guild to see if they needed any help, but no one was willing to be healed by me. Apparently, Mary had sent five Priests to Chalm, and they were working under a reduced rate for the next five years.
With nothing else to do, I decided to go relax in the spring. After pulling off my clothing, I walked up to the hot spring built in the back of our mansion. I had been working so hard since coming to this world, that it felt itchy not doing something. I suppose it was okay to sit back and relax for a bit after everything I had built.
Just as I thought it wasn’t so bad to take a load off, a magical circle suddenly appeared under me, and I felt the feeling of being transported. My vision changed from the calm bubbling of my hot spring to a throne room. The towel wrapped around my hips fell to the ground. I looked around to see a room full of people. There was a supply of reagents on the ground, and I was standing on a magical formation which resembled something like that Blue Mage drew.
“A… summoning circle?” I asked in wonder.
“D-Deek! Your clothing!” Eliana covered her eyes.
“Hehe… he’s bold even in summons!” Prince Edward nodded.
“Silence!” The King bellowed. “I have you now! You thought you could hide in your city after what you did? Guards! Kill him!”
