Chapter 109 – Industrial Developanization fully established, Grants was about to undergo major development

With the heads of each department have been decided, anization was bound for a se's report, Ares signed the docu to recruit domestic officers fro, there are still many ere treated unfairly by the aristocrats Should we really hire theh the materials as he said so

[Thereeach district]

George planned the develop into account the very nature of Grants itself

In central Grants, he turned Heinz and the surrounding suburbs into a large commercial city

To the west, the 『forricultural district due to its fertile ground

To the east here thedistrict is

Northward, he used the vast meadow as the pasture to raise horses, cows and other livestock such as goats and sheep

And lastly, the south was used as the industrial area because the land was less fertile The still vacant areas were utilized as a ranch to raise buffalo ht froround for dragons

[I have received reports on progress and plans froe then started to read the report

First was agriculture When Ares first arrived here, Grants was still adopting the e practices In addition to that, their far tools were poor in quality, which in turn caused an increase in the tie did was to renew it all He changed the far tools were rented free of charge He wanted to lay the groundwork for later i the Land of Demons Not only did he attracted or recruited people from inside but also outside the territory to start new settlements

The policy rericulture Secretary and proceeded with field developiven the local cli efforts in iation and equipment to stabilize the farmland

[Next year, we'll be able to harvest the crops we are currently working on Looking forward to it]

George added

[In addition to that, we need a new plant in order to utilize the undeveloped wasteland… such as the wax tree which produces raw material for wax We can even e continued on

[Heinz will continue to develop as is The speed is so olee has been coe is to expand the city to the suburbs]

The current Heinz is completely different before Ares arrived It is now a city with good culture and hygiene, as well as a beautiful cityscape

[We can start receiving ier scale now But let's continue to develop further]

George then changed the topic toward industry

[Fran is currently focusing on industry First of all, regarding the production of the 『distilled spirits』that Milord showed us the other day There is also an urgent need to start developing tools and ic stones We will invite craftsmen and artisans from the royal capital to help develop the hu that needs to be addressed?]

In response to Ares' question:

[When recruiting people froathered to the call What I' is… I feel that there are stillin the capital]

And lastly,

[It's a good time to develop our human resources Let them learn from the craftsmen we hired from the capital That e can nurture a lot of talents at once]

Ares sn the docu skeleton?]

Ares was intrigued upon hearing Elan's report

Elan was travelling around Grants in his duty as the state counsellor Meanwhile, Raned to Heinz, s have been going, then reports it both George as the state secretary, and Ares as the lord

This was George's arrangeinally, Ramires was more suitable for the task since he's e and shi+on wished to hone Elan's talent by letting his In turn, Elan also ht a lot of new information to report to Ares all at once

[Yes Apparently eon]

Elan turned over the ether

[Moreover, it's not only walking skeletons but also zombies?

Both skeletons and zoeon Many who died on the battlefield and becao there, attracted by the eon as well

Zombies would continue to wander around with its rotten body which was incapable of coht While skeletons are pretty much the same except ere left of them are just their bones

They were a low level adversary individually, but can becoe nuence and would attack any nearby living being They felt no pain so they could go on endlessly regardless of wounds To kill the them to ashes with fire… or separate their head from their body… those are the only ways

The worst case would be the aftermath of a war Intense ould result in lected, these corpses , soes

For exactly this reason, the church would dispatch priests after every battle to bury and purify the corpses

Dungeons were the second hottest spot other than battlefields Inside a dungeon, a corpse would also eventually turned to undead If other adventurers found a corpse inside a dungeon they would immediately take it outside and bury it properly or to wipe the entire corpse without leaving a trace with gunpowder or ic story, but necessary to reduce the number of undead

[Skeletons and zombies aren't exactly rare, aren't they?]

[No, what's strange here is that they roup]

Elan looked over the ain then continued

[And in addition to that, their anized Noranized manner So maybe they're…]

[Products of necroreement

[Yes Apparently there was someone who controlled all those undead… that's et ahead of ourselves… although it's indeed possible Necro]

Necroic is to produce undead and control it It is said that in the past, an excellent necrohts Soendary undead spartoi

But fro death, which caused it to be deemed as evil It was soon pushed to the brink of extinction with the church Now it's just a ic often depicted in fairy tales and stories that people nowadays can only dreaate this ave a look at the person before hiht smile on his face; one that was very unlikely to appear when he's busy doing paperwork Elan knew full well that his friend tends to succumb to his own curiosity

[…since it's partially because ofElan's affirreider

It's a dungeon southwest of Heinz

Ares was in the 12th underground floor

With him were two other people The first one was obviously Elan, while the other one was Sigurd, who insisted on coo, but once he saw the group…

[Well, since the participants are already equivalent to an arht… but please coer you are absent]

then he siht we'll couess this fellow is harder to find that I expected]

The trio had already spent half a day scouring the dungeon, but found nothing They occasionally ca odd Not even an undead visible On the contrary,

[The strange thing is… we haven't encountered any ht It was just as Sigurd said They hadn't encountered any undead orthe way

[And I haven't seen any adventurer's corpse yet This is really strange]

Ares nodded in agreeuess we need to search even deeper…]

When Aresfrom behind

A sound of a ave a look at the other two, then headed to the source of that noise

The path led to a fairly wide open space What Ares and the others saw inside that rooe monster A little bit behind was a man in a cloak, most likely the one who controls the undead

[That's… an Earth Dragon?]

The first one to respond to Sigurd was Ares

[Indeed it is one Although se threat to the adventurers That aside… that's some number of skeletons there]

The skeletons that kept coon's an to overwhelh, the cloakedat the back slowly approached the dragon and swung the sword that was previously hanging on his waist

[Well done]

Ares reflexively urd and Elan still couldn't believe their eyes

After a short silence, the dragon's head shi+fted, and fell to the floor with a loud thud

After confiric stone, which immediately sucked all the skeletons in to be stored inside

The man then turned toward the trio

[It see for a while now… do you need so hostility Noticing this, Ares raised his hand and said that he meant no harm
