Chapter 137: Using Enemies
I returned to Lyra’s room.
There I saw her warmly gazing at her egg.
She had wrapped the egg she had given birth to carefully with her tail.
Her appearance fascinated .
I could feel the holiness of a mother exuding out from her.
「Lord Emissary.」
「It’s fine, you don’t have to move.」
I stopped Lyra from getting up.
「How is it?」
「I think it’ll be born soon. I can feel it inside.」
「Fumu」
I nodded and looked at the egg.
I couldn’t tell from looking at it, but she was the one warming it so she would probably know.
「I’ve made so things. I made three block rooms with fruit trees in them. There are various fruits, an automatic watering system, and proper lighting. I think they should continue to bear fruit unless you cut them down……do you like fruits?」
「Yes. I like them more than at or fish at least.」
「Huh?」
「Well, cause I swallow them whole.」
「Oh, so you’ll get bones and stuff stuck…」
I didn’t realize that.
「Also I left a treasure chest in the other room. There are valuable but bulky things in it. Once soone grabs it they would need to leave with it since they have to carry it with both hands. They’ll probably leave satisfied so don’t go near that place if you can.」
Apparently Lyra was quite valuable for invaders.
「Thank you very much.」
「Also, on the opposite side I made a fake Queen’s room. I dismantled so things and broke so regular things in there. I left them lying around to give the impression that it had been attacked before and destroyed. It is supposed to give the idea that it had already been attacked and looted so humans should just leave. It’d be best if you don’t approach that room either.」
「Thank you very much.」
「Also——」
I explained them one after another to Lyra.
I hadn’t made her a town, I’d made a dungeon.
I hadn’t prepared things too only repel enemies, I’d also prepared things to fool them into leaving on their own.
Unlike my own towns I couldn’t have guards around this area.
That’s why it focused more on getting them to peacefully leave than it was for destroying them.
Even if I say so myself, it was quite roundabout. By so chance I might end up forcefully making a law using my authority as King to protect Lyra and the others……but for now this should do.
「Lord Emissary is……」
「Hm?」
「Lord Emissary is an amazing person as I thought. You made things we couldn’t even think of in the twinkling of an eye.」
「We?」
「My family. My mother, her mother, and her mother’s mother. Each of them dug a deeper and deeper hole to try not to get entagled with anyone. They hid themselves away.」
「I’d also like to get that know-how as well.」
「Eh?」
Lyra was surprised.
「I-it’s nothing that great you know?」
「I understand that it may not seem like that for you, but it is pretty amazing to be able to dig so deep.」
「Is that really so?」
「nu Open.」
I took out my DORECA and made an ice cream with magic.
It cost 50,000 magic.
「Can you eat this? It’s called ice cream. It’s delicious and cold.」
「Delicious and cold……? It is! It’s delicious. I’ve never eaten sothing like this before!」
「This is one of the things considered ‘nothing much’. It cost 50,000 magic power.」
「Ah……yes」
Lyra seed to understand what I was trying to say and nodded.
「Plus, even if it really isn’t nothing much…as long as we pile up many small things, it will beco a big deal. It’s the basics of manufacturing.」
「I see. I understand. I’ll teach you about mother’s nest.」
「Yes, please do.」
「Master」
Olga arrived.
「Invaders have arrived desu.」
Lyra’s body stiffened.
Her face paled and she moved her body even more protectively and hid the egg behind her.
「How is it?」
「They went to the fake Queen Room and left deus. 『Damn, it already got done it』 they said and broke the room so more desu.」
After hearing that the invaders had left Lyra was visibly relieved.
「So they were venting their anger. Leave the room as it is, don’t fix anything. I’ll accept their realistic destruction with thanks.」
「Yes desu」
Olga finished her report and set off running.
「Lord Emissary is amazing.」
「Hm?」
「If it were I would’ve fixed it up a bit.」
「It’s just using what they gave . It’s nothing amazing.」
「Yes, Lord Emissary is amazing.」
Lyra said and looked at with more admiration as she ward the egg.
