Otome Game Mob Villain Chapter 271

I was sitting opposite my father on the sofa across the desk from him, as usual, to report on the activities of the Second Order of Bardia in my office in the main residence.

After taking a deep breath, I slowly spun the words.

'Father, I will now report on the activities of the Second Order."

'Mm.'

After confirming that Father nodded quietly with a stern look on his face, I began to report and explain about the Second Order.

The changes that ca to the Bardia territory after the Second Order beca fully active were dramatic.

First of all, the road leading from the territory to Renalute has been given top priority, and the children who can use earth attribute magic are making the road increasingly flat and firm.

In the coming days, the road will be clean all the way to the border fortress area.

A fueling station for 'charcoal trucks' is also being constructed on the already clean road.

This will also be completed in the coming days, so that the border point between Renalute and Bardia territory can be reached without problems by 'charcoal truck'.

The magic that the children of the beastn use to clear the ground is the magic that I created and taught them the basics of.

It not only flattens the ground, but also hardens it to make it solid at the sa ti.

The centre of the path is raised slightly to allow for drainage, and water flows to the left and right edges.

Using earth attribute magic, the first and second squads of the Second Order's ground troops are mainly responsible for preparing the road.

The first detachnt is a quick working detachnt, led by Kalua of the Bear tribe.

The second squad is captained by a boy called 'Gedding', who is a horseman and a bit quiet.

The Bear Tribe is better at magic, but the Horse Tribe has a larger area of activity due to their faster movent speed.

The Bear People clear the roads close to their territory.

The Horse Tribe is responsible for clearing the roads close to the territory, while the Bear Tribe clears the areas a little further away from the territory, and they seem to be working efficiently.

By the way, when using earth attribute magic, they crouch down on the ground and put both hands on the ground to activate it.

This is because I thought it would be easier to learn the magic if they had their hands on the ground, but perhaps it is easier to use than I thought, and they do not change their stance even after they have beco accustod to activating the magic.

Therefore, the image of them all crouching side by side and activating magic with their hands on the ground is quite picturesque.

The road maintenance is, more than imagined, well-received by the territory's residents.

At first, when the territory's citizens see the children of the Second Order, they look at them quizzically, but when they use their magic to clean the paths, they roll their eyes.

As a result, the Second Order's success quickly spread throughout the territory.

Considering the talks and the future, we are working on the roads that connect to Renalute with the highest priority, but we are receiving requests to improve the roads from all over the territory, so we plan to respond to them in turn.

In addition, the third and fourth squads of the Second Order's ground troops used 'Tree Attribute Magic' to produce wood as a raw material for charcoal using 'Tree Growth'.

The work of processing it into 'charcoal' is also being carried out at the Production Technology Developnt Workshop.

This has made it possible to stably produce and consu fuel locally within the territory.

Of course, it is also sold through the Christie Trading Company, which also contributes to the Bardia family's earnings.

The commander of the third squad, which handles the 'tree attribute magic', is Toluva, a mber of the Bovine tribe.

He is the smallest of the ox-people boys, but he has excellent leadership skills and is leading the third squad well.

Similarly, the fourth squad, which deals with 'tree attribute magic', is captained by a girl from the Ape Man tribe called Scala.

Scala is a girl who began to show her potential in training after the Battle of Hachimaki.

She is usually a quiet girl, but for so reason her character becos a little rough during training and when she uses magic.

She is a little strange, but there is no doubt that she is a very talented girl.

By the way, regarding the tree attribute magic 'Tree Growth', I tried it with fruits and vegetables that can be used as food, but I discovered a problem.

The problem is that things grown only with 'Tree Growth' are not very tasty.

In the case of apples, they are like scraggly apples with no sweetness and no honey.

It's not inedible, but I don't like to eat it', so it may be good as a starvation asure, but it's not for sale.

If it's fruit from a tree, the taste could change depending on what you do with it after it's matured, but it's going to take so ti to get to that point.

As for the frontier special forces, they are working to ensure that information on the Second Order of Bardia is not easily leaked to other countries.

The special forces are moving swiftly in coordination with Aria and her sisters' air force, and they have already succeeded in cracking down on kidnappers and those who are thought to be spies.

The Special Forces are not solely responsible for the crackdown, as they also cooperate with the First Order.

Even so, it is a good achievent in the short ti since it was established.

Father was also very pleased with the achievents already made, as they have led to a stronger crackdown on those who kidnap and spy on people.

However, it was the 'air force' organised by Aria and her sisters that he was most interested in and felt had the greatest potential.

Of course, the use of 'communication magic' had expanded the possibilities.

Even so, it is said that the air force conducted advance reconnaissance and conveyed information to the First Knights in advance, which made a huge difference to the efficiency of the field.

As a result, it seems to have improved the environnt for the knights, and Aria and her sisters have beco very popular with the First Order.

When I finished my general report, Father nodded with a look of admiration on his face.

'Hmmm, ...... so far the only thing that is expected to be profitable is 'charcoal', which is produced and consud locally? But considering the permanent gain, the establishnt of the Second Order is well worth it. Besides, the developnt of roads is vital to enable rapid action. I never realised that an Order that makes magic available could be so frightening."

To my father's words, I shook my head lightly to the side and replied with a wry smile.

'No, no, this is only the start. The future is vital, Father. If everyone in the Second Order progresses well from now on, the scope of our activities will broaden even further. Besides, if we apply this educational program to the children of the territory, I think the possibilities will expand even further."

The 'education program' given to the children of the beastn is only a trial stage.

Sandra and her group are already identifying problems with the curriculum and identifying areas for improvent.

Once the improvents have been fixed, the next step will be to finally give an education course to the children of knights belonging to the First Order of Bardia.

We have also submitted a draft proposal for this to the father and received his approval.

If things continue smoothly as they are, in ten years' ti the Bardia territory should be a territory with a wide range of influence within the Empire.

If so, it will surely be able to face up to its fate of 'absolution'.

When Father heard my answer, he muttered,

'Rid, you really are a terrifying young man. 'Even when it cos to magic, just being able to use it is useless. It is how you use it that is crucial. The magic you developed and how you used it was all inconceivable to the common sense up to now. In a few years ......, or even in the near future, the perception of magic within the Empire will change drastically."

I nodded, smiling at my father's words.

'Hmmm, I suppose so. I would like the Bardian territory to be at the forefront at that ti. But, Father. I am more concerned first of all about Mother's illness than I am about the next few years. How will the eting with Renalute turn out?

'Yes. We will talk about that as well.

In response to my question, the father's expression beca stern and he nodded.

And the conversation shifted from the report on the activities of the Second Order of Bardia to the eting with Renalute.
