Chapter 54 – Brunhilde’s Astonishment
The new castle at the back of Grado village, Val Valhalla castle.
Its name makes me want to bury myself under a hole but it fits the word majestic.
It has a black roof and the walls are plated with white silver mithril. The lattice window frames, the rain gutter, and outer pillars are plated with reddish gold orichalc.u.m.
From the gate of the castle, a pure white cobbled road stretches up to the castle. The bridge crossing the waterway is also made of white stone.
It is enclosed with walls. Now, all we need to do is to remodel the village little by little.
It is possible to complete the capital city in a week if we do our best.
However, my happy city building is not possible right now.
It’s the S rank adventurer, Brunhilde’s fault.
「Please, make me your disciple!」
「I don’t want to.」
Although Brunhilde claimed to be a magic swordsman, she’s only a swordswoman who can use magic.
She seems to be good enough but if you a.n.a.lyze her ability based on the game, she’s about 40% proficient as a swordsman and about 2% proficient as a mage.
She’s only about level 30.
「This is the first time I found someone I can call master!」
「Don’t selfishly push that on me.」
I was interacting with Brunhilde in front of the castle.
「Boss, we have done a lot inside?」
Then, there came Dignity. He said that while wiggling his body.
「Ah, thank you. Let’s look around.」
When I said that we’re going to look around the castle, Brunhilde came along with my escorts.
「Why are you coming, tall onee-san?」
「I have to go with my mentor.」
「Master did not allow you too.」
「Even so, sooner or later…」
「She’s not even a threat so just let her do what she wants.」
「Gugh!」
Brunhilde is following me with my escorts while Lagreat, Sunny, and Laurel are having such a conversation.
She has a very tough personality.
The inside of the castle seems to be complete as I look at it.
There are furnitures in every room and five of the maid corps are already cleaning.
「What a beautiful castle… I’ve seen many castles, but this is such a splendid castle.」
When we were visiting each room, Brunhilde finally gave me her impression of the castle.
「Have you seen other castles?」
When I asked, Brunhilde nodded and opened her mouth.
「Yes. I have seen the castle of the major powers except for the Immenstadt Empire and some n.o.ble’s castle.」
「Oh, including the country of the elves?」
I got interested so I asked Brunhilde.
Then, Brunhilde gives her affirmation.
「The royal castle of the elves is beautiful and majestic. It’s a splendid castle with stone floors and wall, and crystal chandelier. However, elves do not like metals very much so this is the first time I’ve seen a castle that uses gold and silver generously.」
「Our interior decoration is modest but we also used marble and plaster. Mithril and orichalc.u.m are also used on the walls.」
「What? Mithril?」
When I was explaining the castle, Brunhilde looked at me with a kyoton face.
She silently pulled out her sword. She stand by the window and compared her sword with the wall.
