Chapter 116 (2/2)
There were severalon here!?]
[Those skeletons and goleet tired because they're powered by reat for si at such a fast pace]
One of the skeletons raised its face, apparently noticing us It actually stopped working for a bit to wave at us Seeing that, El, isn't it?]
Rather than interesting, what's with that? This city is…
By the way, there were de the passersby And just when I was about to ask Elmer… a demon also passed by
[Ah, are you concerned with the beastkins?]
[Why of course I am What's with them? They're slaves and yet they act very complacent and at ease…]
[That's because you're still stuck with the old thinking froular citizens like us]
Elmer explained to me with a serious face
[There is no slave syste like those corrupt officials and aristocrats here either The officials are sincere and the guards are strict… and above all, the ruler of this place, he is certainly a trustworthy man]
Then Elmer tapped my back once more
[That's exactly why I invited you here in the first place, Dennis In a few months, you'll definitely understand the wonder of this city]

[Welcoreetedin a room inside the recently built four story apartment
A month has passed since our family moved into this city
Everyday had been full of astonishi+ng surprises one after another
Not only housing, but everything was also in order at Heinz
The city has a sanitized ay and sewage system All the lavatories were flush-type The city roads were paved with cobblestones up to its alleyways, and the ere in places A lot of luggage was carried by boats via the ays
The stores along the main street were lively There are plenty of foods that couldn't be found even at the capital and they even sold bread cheaply Before this, I'd never iine the day when I could eat white bread everyday
I also heard that the quality of food served in the restaurants and stalls had gone up in quality to an unprecedented level during this past six e left a deep impact within my very soul I would work myself like hell if I could have a taste of it every so often
My kids are now studying at school In Heinz, it's compulsory to find education at school They went to the sao This kind of thing was impossible back at the royal capital
[Dennis, how do you turn this on?]
[Nn? Ah, here…]
I'ineering business I could make use of what I've learned on the royal capital At the et, that's why they let everyone choose their own job It's to develop huside a beastkin
Honestly, I used to not get along ith demihumans Because I have had this prejudice since I was a kid
Huher existence than the de of the church But now that I've e my view
They warmly welcome us e are in trouble in this unfamiliar land They helped us They… are pretty much as 『human』as any of us
My kids also made a lot of friends with many of them Sure, they're better in ter would happen
Yes… this place is very equal
Even the temple in Heinz… teaches that everyone should be equal That is the true 『truth』
I'm actually unable to tolerate the hu de?
There will be no end to it if I were to talk about the splendor of this city But first and foremost… I don't think anyone will have to fear about tomorrow's meal or unreasonable violence and discri More people are gathering after hearing the rumour spread in various places…
I think our lord will accept them all Because… he's that kind of man
Ares-sa, both officially and incognito But the hot spring facility is the most likely place to coincidentally meet him
He'd talk to colance, he doesn't look like those aristocrats back at the capital
But…
For the people of Heinz, he is soly support almost to the point of worshi+p
This peaceful place was his work after all
Unlike those false aristocrats in the royal capital… he truly did things for the people I don't think there is anyone ould consider and think through everything for our happiness more than him
For that ly lay downin this city would think the sa me
