13 Episode 12 Get permission from the village mayor.txt




 The next day .

 The goblins in the village were friendly and didn't particularly change the way they treated Bellamus.
 But they were asking a lot of questions about how he can use magic.

 Bellamus fooled them by saying that humans grow up too fast.
 Goblins don't know much about humans, so it was relatively easy to fool them.

 They won't change the way they treat you, but they'll understand that you're not just a child.

 Afterwards, Beramus will go to the chief's house.
 The purpose of this visit was to ask for permission to renovate the village to improve the living conditions of the goblins.

What's this all about?

 The chief sat down and listened to the vellum.

'First of all, is it clear to you that I am no ordinary five-year-old?
Of course, a normal five-year-old boy can't beat the orc boss. That's not normal for a goblin.
I have a lot of knowledge and can control magic. I wish to use my knowledge and magic to improve the living conditions and defenses of this village. I have come to ask your permission to do so.
"Improving Living Conditions and Defense Capabilities: ...... What exactly do you want to do?
We'll start with agriculture. I want to make sure we have a steady supply of food in this village.
"Agriculture is not a technology of ...... ningen.
'And then there's the renovation of the house, the improvement of the clothes, the building of a wall around the village, the strengthening of the weapons, the evolution of the goblins.

 Bellamus listed one proposal for the renovation of the village after another.
 The Mayor.

Just do that and we'll be like a Ningen town.

 He looked at me with nostalgic eyes.
 It was as if the chief had seen a human town before.

If you are willing to work for the betterment of our village, I have no reason to refuse you. This orc incident has reminded me that this forest is no place for laxity. This area has been peaceful for ten years. The environment of this forest can change drastically for a while. ......

 Once again, the chief seems to be remembering something that happened long ago.
 This time his eyes seem to recall something terrible.

This is how it's going to be done. Then let's do it. I promise you we'll make it a better place for the goblins to live.
Yes, it's all right.
Also, since the workload is too much for me to handle on my own, I'd like to ask for the village goblins' help as well, is that okay?
Well, you can ask the men in the village. Maa, no one would refuse a request from Varamus.
Okay.
If there's anything I can do to help, please feel free to ask. You see, I'm an old man, I'm not good at physical work.
You can't put the mayor to work. Take your time and watch the village change.
"Ho-ho-ho. I'll take that as a yes. I will have one more thing to look forward to.

 Bellamus left the village chief's house and began to work quickly.
