Now, I don't like the idea of soone invading or my settlent. I got enough of being a citizen of an invasion-riddled country, so I imdiately decided to be the one to fire the starting shot. It is not like my ego is unfounded because this forest is the property of the undead and I am the hero of the god of the undead, so I have the authority to even call this place mine.
But of course, I will not do that until I finished the hero's test. Thinking of such things, I imdiately made a simulation of the war I want to make, this simulation however is just the result of my already known knowledge of all the primates that are in the Theory of Evolution and the more weaker normal monkeys in modern tis.
This ant that my simulation did not include any special traits possible for the otherworldly monkeys and we don't want so flawed simulation to be the base of my plans. Thus after a long day of organizing things for the recovery path of the settlent, I imdiately ordered Kabuto to venture to the second layer and find a monkey to tail and look for their hideout.
After which, he has to spy on every single one of their secrets, except for useless ones like toilet tis, etc.
"Then, go ahead."
Kabuto nodded receiving my order with a wide smile.
"Yes, rest assured that even their toilet ti will be revealed."
Oi, I just said that toilet ti is not needed! Well, who cares I guess, I thought so as Kabuto turned translucent, and with a blur, he disappeared. I looked at the spot in which a subordinate of mine is in just a while ago for a mont, my heart is still beating uneasily because of a command that I am reluctant to do so until now.
"Please be careful."
I muttered and sighed, as I went inside the cave, the entrance have a residential area and I don't have anyone to talk to there so I went to the section which I gave to Ellie as her laboratory.
[You're not even in the talking stage and you already gave her a nickna?]
Hey now, there's no need to think too deeply about it... we will be heading into that stage very soon.
[I see, that's so arroga- I an confidence.]
I ignored [Guide] and then looked at the two goblins who are heads of the crafting team nad Kabra and Bang, they have a blueprint of so sort in their hands, they did not even notice as I slithered out of their way and went to look at Eleanor who already has a microscope and many Petri dishes among other lab apparatus in her table.
How did she grab all of that? She doesn't have anything when she first ca here, she even grabbed a tong in between her cleavage...
[Won's Secret.]
Hey, no dirty joke! I imdiately corrected my naughty unique skill as I stared at Ellie's mumbling and note-making figure.
She is always adjusting her microscope as she scribbled with a tablet made of earth, seems like that's her attribute. Well, scribble I say but she just uses her precise control to take notes without the use of a carving stone or sothing. Yeah, that's right this is a sowhat dieval world (Exclude Slavery, Racism, and extre poverty) so paper will never be a staple equipnt for ordinary people.
Even I would need a proper amount of ti and a suitable alternative to modern thods of paper making and also an alternative that is not cumberso like those big fat-ass paper-making machines in the early phases of the industrial revolution.
[That is not a challenge... Though it is a lengthy procedure.]
Yep, if it's magic, then it is possible but it will be lengthy because I never made paper before and only knew how it is made theoretically.
I have that industry planning ideas as I continued to watch Ellie who have a frowning face that will turn happy, and the frown again and then smile again and again.
"Oh..."
"Huh?"
"How weird... Isn't it supposed to..."
"But then..."
I unconsciously smiled at the sight of her being engrossed in her passion and was interrupted by the creepy guy inside my head.
[You like them weird huh?]
What do you an weird? Didn't she look cool when she is doing sothing she genuinely likes? I think that's attractive.
[Oh... here it is, I saw sothing that says you completely folded to this girl who loves bugs... That explains it.]
Hey! Th-that's against the 1987 Philippine Constitution, Article Three also known as the Bill of Rights, Section Three by which it proclaims that: The privacy of communication and correspondence shall be inviolable except upon lawful order of the court, or when public safety or order requires otherwise, as prescribed by law.
Furthermore, Any evidence obtained in violation of this or the preceding section shall be inadmissible for any purpose in any proceeding!
So you better not do that again!
[You're embarrassed huh? Well, I would agree with you though, in all seriousness, people engrossed in things they love have this certain charm on them.]
Yeah! Right! Right! Calling them weird is just an overstatent.
I made a little commotion and Eleanor noticed , I made a "geh!" sound and smiled awkwardly, she also smiled faintly and nodded while waving her hand that is bound by a sand tentacle and continued her work.
Now that I think about it, is she using my goblins to create her lab? Well, not like I mind but why do those green-skinned people can be attached to a stranger who sneaked into their place and not who created it in the first place? I cannot understand.
[Like you didn't just call her cool a while earlier.]
Eh, like I said, I do not mind.
Anyway, I just sighed and looked at her for a little while before entering my new dwelling, it is a room furnished with stone, as what would you expect from a cave right? I then recalled the passionate face of Eleanor one more ti as I closed my eyes.
I can't wait to grow up... Oh, and I wish she was into girls.
The next day I saw several materials being transferred in the lab of Eleanor, most of them are tables, wooden faucets, and other ancient-looking lab tools. Ellie is sleeping on her table with the microspore in front of her, and should I say that sleeping in a fucking lab is dangerous?
"Seriously..."
I made several tentacles and gently grabbed her like a princess and then placed her on the section that she particularly partitioned as her sleeping quarters, the gaps between the plywood divider is filled with tree sap.
I then placed her on the simple mat made of weaved palm leaves and coated her with a blanket made of the sa material. I then left her room and waved my hand to a goblin who with her eyes in the opposite of my direction waved back.
Haha, rowdy aren't they?
I continued to stroll away from her lab and imdiately went to continue the adjustnts of my settlent. The adjustnts yesterday of course are not yet finished, in that day I have to instruct them how to dry age at how to make Palm leaves mats and blankets as well as how to cure the pelt of the wolves and make leather for clothes and armor.
After that I have to help Lyra with the arrangents of the houses being transferred inside the cave, I also tabulated all of the soldiers that evolved and morized their nas, after which I have to listen to the civilian count report of Lyra, a good thing none of them died and a few injured are the only worst damage in the report.
All of that was finished in half a day, but the military ones are more complicated. First I instructed the lumber team to focus their tree-cutting activities in an area a little far from the settlent to make a clearing wide enough for a unit-unit war to happen, this is a place in which the soldiers will train as they will not hunt for a while and hone their Martial Arts skills, I am not to believe that they don't have that when they can kill wolves with spears made out of a chiseled stick and sharpened stone.
Furthermore, they really can't hunt any gas right now because of the amount of at we acquired, we will be in serious trouble if they did so.
This however requires ti as it's only the lab that is being made and the housing of people tending the salt pans as well as the farrs I recently assigned to cultivate plants.
And then I also have to designate my subordinates as the official generals of the army, they are lower than the commander Bernardo, but hey, they are my subordinates so their appointnts are just temporary until I find soldiers among the ranks that fit the requirents of being a general.
And so all of that required another half a day resulting in the delay of the additional orders, these orders are quite complicated and the soldiers have to rest so I did not make them have overti because that would be pushing them.
And so now, I have to continue my commands by rearranging the army. This is quite a good problem I have, I have many goblins here that have the potential on being high-ranking people in my future military so all of them will beco unit leaders.
However, the good thing about Isekai worlds with an MMORPG-like system is that potential has nothing to do with your genius, I an it has but not to the point that normal people will have an utter inferiority complex towards those prodigies, they just have to work extra hard and the gap between talent will beco irrelevant in the long run.
That ans, that even though I have said that there are people who have potential, that doesn't an the other goblins I will not assign as leaders will not have a chance to bypass these people. All of my soldiers understand this logic, thus resulting in an intense yet healthy rivalry between them.
Rember that, their fear of is just activated by the skill, and upon sight of , though it is etched in their heart because of their nature as monsters, they have already forgotten most of it and only the skill keeps them from completely wiping it out of their mory, so they have this "I have to be strong for that Tyrant... B-but it is not like I want to serve her or anything!"
Sothing like that.
[Don't call them tsundere... I an, they are but don't call them that.]
I snickered a bit listening to [Guide] as I looked at the assembly of soldiers in front of as I announced my commands, Lyra and Kabuto are absent and Philo's still training the goats so I am only here with Agilus who is angrily peaking my head because of almost dying.
And also Bernardo, the commander of the soldiers.
"Guardians of my Land, I am here to thank you for your..."
I made a short speech of made-up crap thanking them and whatnot that spanned for about thirty minutes until it was finally finished.
"However, with this encounter, I noticed flaws about my organization of your ranks thus the following commands will be implented, first..."
The command is as follows: the goblin soldiers will be reduced by a hundred, which ans there will be 200 left in their ranks, these 200 will form 20 people units led by people I designated. That ans 10 units, this unit will be training day in and day out for their chemistry to build up and every week, there will be mock battles for them to be tested.
The other 100 will form the goat cavalry, this unit will be our war unit and cannot be used as hunters because they will make big commotions because of their size. Sadly, the lack of people prevented from expanding the army, this is because all of the pregnant won goblins have to carry a child for 5 months from the mont they were nad.
And I nad them just recently and I am just in my second month of being transported, so you can understand why.
That's all I will be saying and Bernardo will be the one to say the auxillary matters. Why? Because I have been itching to test my new magic powers.
Specifically, the fire elent... That Ember Magic ca a long way...
Anyway, I proceeded to go to a clearing after making sure that Agilus knew of my absence.
I cracked my little knuckles as I stretched a little.
"Alright, let's start."
