19 Episode 18 Making a barrier.txt




 Building a barrier is also done using earth magic.

 The magic magic house you used to build the house can also be used to build the wall.

 Making gates is a bit of a hassle, but the wall is not difficult to build.

 Although the goblin village isn't very large, I'm planning to enclose the land that the orcs made available to us by cutting down trees with a wall, so I have a large area to enclose.

 It's a magic that consumes a lot of magic, so the goblins can't use it yet. Therefore, I'll have to do it alone.

 Because of that, Bellamus had expected it to take a long time.

 In fact, as he expected, it took quite a while.

 Although his magic power has increased compared to when he built the house, the scope of his work is still large, so it took him thirty days to complete it.

 But with this, the village's defense strength has increased significantly.
 Since the goblins are able to use magic and can attack from a distance, they won't be able to penetrate the village so easily.

 Also, I made the gate a bit special.

 It's a door that blocks the gate, but it's very different from normal doors.
 It's not opened by pulling or pushing, but by pulling it up.
 To pull it up, you use a magical, automatic doll called "Golem".

 When the golem is placed on top of the door, it will open the door when you give a specific signal.

 It took some time, but the barrier was completed.

 The goblin village is now much safer, but there's still a lot of work to do, such as preparing clothes, making weapons, and expanding the farmland.

 However, unlike houses, there is no magic that can be made easily, so Bellamus thought it would be easier to go to a human town and buy some clothes and weapons.

 Of course you need money to buy it, but you can earn money by defeating the demons in the forest and selling the materials.
 The value of things may have changed since his previous life, so what you thought was expensive may be cheap.
 But it's hard to believe that everything is cheaper.

 Beramus is a little torn, and decides to go to the human city.

 He decides to go to the city alone.
 Because the goblins are likely to be hated by the humans.
 If I take him to the city, they might attack me.
 If he'd evolved into a hobgoblin, he might be fine, but I don't want to put him in harm's way.

 By the way, the human town is just west of the goblin village, through the woods.
 The chief told me about it a while ago.

 It's not far, but it'll take us at least five days to get there and back before we get there and back, if we want to make money and do other things.
 Before you go, Vellums thought it would be a good idea to explain things to Aretha and Delarosa.

 By the way, with Delarosa there is no problem growing Merune.
 She has access to all the magic she needs.
 Even when we were building the barrier, Delarosa began to use magic during the construction of the wall.

 I've decided to leave the day after tomorrow.

 And the day before he left.

I'm going to human town tomorrow.

 He told Aretha and Delarosa that.

"Eck. ............

 Aretha looks like she's been through an uncharacteristic shock.
 Why do you look like that? Aretha chuckled awkwardly as Beramus wondered.

That's right, that day has finally come. ...... I was prepared for that day to come.
Hmm?
I've been wondering if you, a Ningen, would be happier living with them. You're only five years old, but you're certainly respectable enough to change your village. ...... If you want to live with Ningens, it might be better for you if you don't keep them.

 This is a big misunderstanding, Bellamus thinks.

'Aye! Bellamus, you're going to Ningen and you're going to disappear! Yadar!

 Delarosa has tears in her eyes.

'Don't cry, Delarosa! When we say goodbye, you have to smile!
You're making a terrible mistake. I'm going to the human city to buy weapons and clothes and stuff. I'll be back in a bit. I won't be gone forever.
Oh, really?
Of course. Sure, I'm human, but I lived in this village long before that. I have no reason to go anywhere else.
Really, it's good to see you at ......

 Aretha patted her chest in relief .
 She was quite shocked to think that Vellums was going to leave.

'You're not going to leave, Vellums? Moo! Don't scare me, yo!

 Delarosa is furious.

"I think I got off on the wrong foot a little badly.

 Bellamus apologized.

"But I've got to go to the town of Ningen. Can I follow you?
No, it's not safe.
'Aye! What a day!
'It's possible that many humans don't take well to goblins. Besides, I'll have to have Delarosa watering the meroons.
'Aye! In the city of Ningen, mind you, Lou! I've been there!
Delarosa, don't be selfish.



 Aretha scolds Delarosa.

"You'll have to be patient with me this time because I'll get you there.
"Ummm, ...... really?
It's true.
Okay, but you have to take me there someday. But promise me you'll take me there someday. I promise.
Yeah.

 He didn't know when he would be able to fulfill it, but he made a promise.
 He hoped that in time he would be able to clear his mind of misunderstandings about goblins and learn to trade with humans, so Delarosa would be able to go to the human city when that time came.

 The next day he went to the human city.
