Chapter 12 - Chapter - 12

You might think, Why is there a hero in this world? But after my investigation (Nova was the one who did it using the drones), I found out that the god in charge of this world was using other races as sacrifices to increase his power. He was offering them to the Balance. I have sealed even the Balance's existence from this world and from the reach of that god as well.

But why was the god doing it? And why only the other races? Why not humans?

I had that question, and when I got my answer, it made sense. It's their life force. Humans' lives are short, but it's different for other races. By killing races with long life spans, the Balance would offer a generous price.

At the current situation... after I killed that hero, I forbade the summoning of heroes in each region. If they dare to do it, then their nation will fall by my hands.

As for those morons from other nations, they were thrown outside and returned to their nations again. The reason I didn't kill them was because I still needed them for some of my plans. I also destroyed the church in the Belfort Kingdom so they wouldn't be able to do anything. There will be a new church built soon, but the priests there will be chosen strictly.

As for the Saint, she said she will be living here. Saito agreed.

Then, we are at our current situation right now. We are checking the slaves I had teleported from the armies those morons had brought with them. After inspecting them, I was sure that they were all innocent people who were forced or turned into slavery by the nobles. I had Nova bring their family members.

Eldo-Nexus' official opening will be done after three days.

The next day, there were new citizens—the elves from the Guildmaster's clan. The Guildmaster was apparently their princess, which was quite shocking to me at first. Well, we talked about the details of the place where they would settle. They wished to be in a forested area. Then we went to check for an area where they could live.

After finding a perfect place with an appropriate living area, a small river for water supply, wild animals for their hunt, and trees where they could build their houses, I asked Nova to start the construction. The elves were amazed seeing the process—how fast everything was being built. It was completed by the evening, which meant they could now live there.

Saito had asked to prepare a feast for them. Well, it was the right thing to do anyway, so we were also preparing for the banquet. Saito was checking the food that was being prepared. Maybe he was happy to enjoy meals from our past life?

At the banquet, everyone was present. The citizens were eating in the center. The elves and humans were enjoying themselves.

"Who knew there could be a sight like this—that two different races are enjoying together," said King Arthur.

The royal family of Belfort was present too. We were in the central palace of Eldo-Nexus. The Saint was also present. The kids were running around with a dog.

Wait—that is Fenrir. How was it here?

Nova answered, "It is a guardian spirit, newly made using the knowledge and memories of your mind realm."

"But I had instructed not to create any other life forms again, did I not?"

"Master, that Fenrir was your tamed beast in your past life, and its soul got attached when we were in the process of completing the children. So, he's trying to protect his master's kids, I guess."

I know that Fenrir somewhat... what was his name again? Ah, Jet.

I called him to me and asked him to look after the kids so they don't cause any trouble. After that, I returned to discuss something with Saito and King Belfort.

King Saito said, "Ryo, I think there should be some things which can only be found here, other than a unique environment for the other races to live."

"Well, we have prepared those things already, and there are not just one, but many, which can't be found anywhere else. Have you not seen those jewels, glass ornaments, clay products, and some beauty products in the market?"

"Ah, I do. There were merchants selling those, but they disappeared, spreading news about—wait, they were talking about this kingdom?"

"Yes. And there are many other things here, other than the dungeons and labyrinths. So you don't have to worry about these things right now."

Saito spoke again, "We should introduce other things—like board games, different types of clothes… and other things" 

"Well, maybe we can do that later."

After our long discussion, the next day...

The merchant humanoids who were sent to the other nations had returned while spreading the news about our kingdom. These merchants will sell the products made here in other nations in limited quantities. The adventurers had returned too; they will now operate from here. I was planning on leaving things to Saito and the humanoid who will take my place, because I wanted to travel to other nations—and maybe even other worlds. For now, I will help out here...

We were thinking about how we would collect taxes and supply food. It's not like I could have the drones do every job. We were sorting the list of people who are capable of various jobs such as farming, chefs for inns, people who can manage shops, and other roles. These things are also necessary.

We posted a notice and announced the details for everyone—job opportunities...
