Chapter 193 – Getting Ready to Make the Fields and Roads

We talked it over until night, got ready for work, and then went back to Mulg.

The priest made sure to watch the lumber being dried.

「Master! And others! Thank you so much!」

「No problem. See you tomorrow!」

「PiGGi!」

Chelnobok said in spirit speech,

『Thanks』

And just that.

We went back to Mulg and after eating, Vallimie said,

「I have the golems ready.」

「Oh, thanks!」

「Great job, sister!」

Vi-Vi complimented her sister, and Vallimie was a bit bashful.

Chel started to jiggle and said,

『Vawimmie, thanks』

「Don’t worry at all, Chel.」

And with that, Vallimie went over to pet Chel.

Chel, of course, jiggled around happily.

「PiGiii, PigGi」

Seems the blob really liked to be petted by a busty devil.

Then I asked her,

「What kind of golems are you bringing here?」

「Well, I thought I could lend 5 mithril golems.」

「Mithril? Thanks for sending the high class stuff.」

「I’d do anything to help!」

A normal golem could cover small things like lifting lumber and small stones, but it would lose power.

A mithril golem, though, could put a lot more power into it.

Millet was listening, and said,

「We can help operate the golems if you need help!」

「We can help too!」

It’s not hard for a normal person to learn how to operate golems.

Of course, golems weren’t made with that in mind.

Even so, since both Collette and Millet had learned magic, I think they could help.

That’s why I was happy to hear about the extra aid Millet could offer.

「That would help, but will Mulg be okay?」

「Sure, just leave that to the chief.」

Collette was hugging onto Moofy and said,

「Right? We can go together, Moofy.」

「Moooo」

Moofy seemed happy about that.

I asked Cruz,

「Are there any carpenters or bridge-makers coming to that village anytime soon?」

「Well, I did ask the assistant to send them as quickly as possible.」

「So, a few days?」

「Probably. Some might show up tomorrow.」

There was no road connecting the temple to anywhere, too.

So it would take more than just a few hours.

「And the government planner guy?」

「Will probably show up with the carpenters and others.」

「I see.」

I guess we just had to do what we could until the help showed.

「So making fields and roads then!」

「Yeah.」

「Leave the fields to ME!」

「Moo Moo!」

Vi-Vi said proudly.

Moofy also stretched when she mooed.

◇◇◇

It was breakfast of the next day. Before we went to the temple, Vi-Vi said,

「Al. I’ve been wondering for a while…」

「Hm?」

「What’s with the get-up?」

「What do you mean?」

I always was dressed like a magician. It was convenient, easy, and you didn’t care if your robes got dirty.

「If you’re going to farm, you need THIS!」

Vi-Vi handed me some overalls and a straw hat.

「Well, it is very farm-ish.」

「I made it for you, Al.」

「Oh, well, thanks.」

I guess it was good for the task ahead.

She had made it just for me, so I felt I had to wear it.

After i put the overalls and hat on, Vi-Vi looked at me, completely satisfied.

「Yeah, fits you well.」

「Hey, I want one too.」

「If I have to…」
