To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Chapter 652

Episode 652 The Kingdom of Heterogeneous Races (4)

Around the time Rei started building in earnest.

The number of goblins under his command gradually increased.

At first there were only three of them, but now there are dozens of them grunting and working overtime.

Among them were goblins who worked as carpenters.

Those who watched with curiosity intervened one by one without saying who came first, and now they are working harder than anyone else.

“Oh, it should be trimmed like this.”

“Kieek.”

“If you apply too much force, the surface will be damaged, so be careful.”

Talking and going somewhere again.

Those seeing it for the first time would think of it as a boss who gave rough instructions, but the goblins had a slightly different idea.

Even if he seemed to be doing it roughly, he was observing each goblin carefully.

When a mistake is about to happen, he recognizes it like a ghost and comes to give advice. I have never met a person like him.

Especially the goblins who were carpenters couldn’t help but feel how helpful it was.

They were the only goblins of the previous generation that could be called teachers.

All it learns are crude catch skills that only slightly imitate human skills.

However, learning from him, my knowledge was deepening day by day to the extent that the previous goblins looked ridiculous.

“How many nails did you make?”

“There aren’t even a hundred of them yet.”

“Put everything else aside for a while and focus on making nails.”

“yes.”

I should be busy with my own work, but managing other goblins’ business.

Seeing this, the carpenter goblins grew more and more respectful.

‘As expected, the gods are different.’

‘Kayek. It is not a skill that has been cut once or twice.’

There is a solution to a casually thrown word, and the casual tapping of a hammer was enchanting enough to be embedded in one’s mind.

It is enough to believe that I have lived my whole life touching trees.

Let the sun begin to set in the distance.

Ray clapped his hands and drew the goblins’ attention.

“Everyone suffered. Let’s stop here for today, and let’s meet again tomorrow.”

I told them to disperse, but not a single goblin organized the work.

Rather, it is full of goblins holding on to the pillars and rushing to hammer them in order not to fall.

“I still want to do more.”

“I want to complete at least the first floor…”

Now that the floor is finished and the window frames are starting to be carved, the work is in full swing.

Ray stroked his chin and thought for a moment.

Human carpenters would have shook their heads and refused right away, but these are goblins.

Even when night comes and the son-in-law becomes dark, the goblins can see it as brightly as daytime.

Besides, if you need a break, there’s nothing to worry about because they know how to rest in moderation.

‘Heh heh. What kind of rice cake is this?’

The corner of his mouth twitched when he got free manpower who didn’t mind working overtime until late at night.

Effortlessly erasing his smile, he pretended to be serious.

“Then let’s finish at least the first floor within today. Although progress on the window sill is slow, staying up all night should be enough.”

At those words, the goblins filled their faces with smiles.

“thank you!”

“thank you!”

I even received thanks for the subject of using manpower.

Embarrassed, Ray left the place.

I should at least prepare a meal while the goblins work on it.

He took out an iron pot from his backpack and lit it skillfully.

Throw some firewood and hang the pot.

Then, this time, the goblins in charge of cooking clung to the side.

“Give me a lesson!”

“please!”

These were the people who were brought to work on the first day and their hearts were pacified after eating his food.

They were vicious criminals who secretly stole cooking ingredients until they were scolded by the previous goblins, but thanks to that, Ray was able to prepare a fairly delicious meal and readily accepted them.

It was true that I had to trim the material.

Ray held out various vegetables and chunks of meat.

“Trim this and this.”

“yes. Please leave it to me.”

The goblin who received the ingredients was hesitant even though he answered enthusiastically.

“Hey God…”

“Why?”

As he answered deftly, as expected, the embarrassed goblins held up the ingredients.

“What is this…?”

“It’s a fish.”

“A new fish?”

“You can think of it as fish from the sea. How to clean it…”

He grabbed the fish by the tail and placed it on the stone plate.

Sweep the fish with a rugged kitchen knife, and the scales will fall off.

By vigorously cutting off the head, revealing the inside, and removing the intestines, a clean fish was easily trimmed.

The goblins who were watching him seriously nodded.

“I will try.”

Among the food picked from Hafman, it is a fairly high-end fish.

As much as that, it was more difficult to clean than normal planting material, and there was a somewhat rough side.

The goblins each picked up a fish and immediately began cutting it.

Teouk-!

The head of the fish is cut and the scales fall off with the sharp knife.

Let some time pass.

The goblins, though clumsily finished, presented their own food.

It has a rough appearance, but this is enough for the first trimming to pass.

‘He has talent.’

Even though it must have been the first material they dealt with, they bravely accepted and cared for it.

Seeing that all the scales were meticulously removed and even the bones were removed, this must have been innate.

It’s probably that the monster’s habit still remains.

“good job. Fresh seafood is life. If you don’t hurry to clean it, it may even spoil during cooking.”

If the preservation magic had not been applied, this fish would have been thrown away after a few days.

Ray poured the prepared seafood into the pot.

As I tilted it to the side and brushed it off in small pieces, the scales that had not been trimmed were burned.

In addition, various vegetables were added and the heat was gently applied, and the savory smell emanated.

“Smells good.”

It is a delicacy that I have not eaten in a long time.

In the meantime, I used to chew beef jerky or jelly, but now I can have a meal like a meal.

A few sweet leaves were laid under the fish that had begun to be properly grilled.

If you bake a little more in that state, the fishy smell goes away and only a pleasant bitterness remains.

“Now, it is complete.”

There was nothing to call it a plate, so he carved out a rock and made a whole table.

There is also a place under the table where you can light a bonfire like a furnace.

I didn’t have to worry about the food getting cold while eating.

The goblins went to call the workers, and soon enough hungry goblins flocked to them.

“Keew! It’s a meal! meal!”

“Please leave me mine too!”

The goblins rushed in quickly and sat down on the table.

However, those who thought they would eat in a hurry are quiet for some reason.

“Let’s eat and give thanks for the food God has given us.”

A fairly old goblin said something.

Then the others bow their heads and remain silent.

Do you even pray before meals?

without any doubts.

After a few seconds of silence, the indifferently savage meal began.

It is only then that they become a mishmash of statues, plates, and wreckage, and you realize that they are monsters.

The goblins who had dismantled the wild boar they had caught the other day knocked on the table.

Sensing that his life was in danger, Ray hurriedly moved his hand.

Around the time when a noisy meal was in full swing.

The building built behind them was changing into a plausible appearance before I knew it.

* * *

Foreign nobles who came to Ray stayed at an inn within the territory.

It was because I wanted to refuse to stay in a shabby hut crawling with spider webs and bugs.

Gregory’s proposal to make a suitable inn for his abode was accepted without objection.

“Mmm.”

Selena stretched and said.

“Can I believe the words of the Holy Son to be completed in three days?”

Gregory shook his head.

“Three days is a tough time to build a house. Don’t expect.”

Just like that.

The short time of three days is too much to build even a small hut, let alone a building.

“Don’t worry too much. Thanks to coming this far, you can bring good magic tools, right?”

“That’s true. An alliance with a principality that has not yet reached orbit… The status of the empire will fall to the ground.”

Gregory sighed.

An equal alliance between the principality and the empire.

Depending on the listener, the Empire may be seen as strange.

Philia waved her hand as if it didn’t matter.

“I don’t think it’s a loss. Just having a saint in the principality is enough reason to open your hands.”

Other nobles also agreed to her words.

If you think about it, it makes sense.

Lessian is a superpower that has grown unprecedentedly on the continent.

On the other hand, other kingdoms are large, but do not reach the empire.

Among them were small kingdoms.

Since the gap between the kingdoms is huge, it is only natural that there is a difference of opinion.

Gregory pondered and said.

“I’ll have to ask you to improve your relationship with the Empire.”

No matter how great the effectiveness of magic tools is, having an equal relationship with the empire is something that can cause a big wave.

Selena also seemed to approve of it, as if it made sense.

“I wonder if the Holy Son will listen.”

“What do you mean?”

As the nobleman of the Kleiman Kingdom spoke meaningfully, Gregory and Selena drew attention.

“As long as the kingdoms other than the Lessian Empire are moving, the saint will not be sorry even if he does not form an alliance with the empire.”

Rather, the balance of power with other kingdoms that began to share magic tools would begin to strike.

However, even so, it would take several years of effort to approach the status of an empire, but it was certain that the widening gap would narrow.

‘It’s difficult. But there’s nothing wrong with saying it once.’

While they are having a serious talk and heading to the manor.

Before I knew it, I was able to arrive at the shabby cabin of yesterday.

It is still an old house that would not be strange if it collapsed at any time.

I’ll know better after seeing this.

To build a building for VIPs in three days.

It was nonsense.

moment to take a step back.

A faint, raucous noise could be heard in the distance.
