Volume 5 Chapter 2 (1/2)
Chapter 2 : Pyra
At the construction site, Weed was cooking grass porridge and handing it out to workers for free
”Good work, take your time and eat it slowly”
”Thank you”
Exhausted froratitude
<tbody>
Staer has been relieved
Thirst has been quenched

Inter Skill and Intere lected his cooking skills lately, the enhancement of the food was still ample
People liked and respected Weed
They were thankful not only for sharing his quest, he had also cooked free food for therass, and was boiled to look like porridge, after receiving a bowl of boiling porridge, they gave their heartfelt thanks to Weed
A those who participated in the quest, some had really low levels and had little e for these workers for free, and the players were thankful that they were able to ithout dying fro food, Weed also kept an eye on the atood-natured these people were, any co an end to the construction Such as being co full
The main force behind the construction were the low-level players They werethem, other players unconsciously matched their speed
”Thank you very , heartily thanked Weed This cute little girl looked to be a 10th grade high school student
”You're welcome, I'm happy you liked it” Weed responded with a siven tens of thousands of such s so much wasn't easy No wonder Weed's s, but lips was slightly crooked,Nevertheless his voice was friendly
”Lemon, you've moved 8 stones already!”
”Oh, you remember me?”
”Of course You're one of those wonderful people, who praised e with such pleasure the sun isn't down yet, and if you1 or 2 more stones, you'll be one of those orked the most today”
”Oh? I see And I was just about to stop I'll be right back!” The young girl Le Weed's grass porridge, all the players felt energized, and became even h his porridge was called 'grass porridge', it wasn't rass alone!
Even if prepared by such a great cook like Weed, if you eat the saet fed up eventually So, froredients, spending about 100 gold a day Weed considered those expenses as invest skill!
Even though his dishes lacked refine skill rose constantly
Weed would have probably lost a lot of sleep if he had to lose 100 gold daily Since theover every single copper, trying to reach his goal as soon as possible
But now the situation is a little different Weed had hired workers to build the tomb, so he has to watch the process and bear the costs!
'No helping it I won't be able to build it without their help, so I have to buy food and take care of thehts of a dedicated, charitable businessman
His facial expression, confident voice, and concern for the people—all of it created an is were si its prey
'Eat fast so I can put you to work as fast as old as operation costs for this quest, old still reold from the participation fees Ultimately, it will be a surplus'
Excessive labor! Exploitation! Eating grass porridge with a rotten s them to work, vicious boss Weed!
On the Royal Road website, the construction of the tomb became prominent topic for discussion And so another article
<tbody>
Topic: People busy on the tos
Last time I posted a topic about a 'B' rank difficulty quest Noant to show you a short video from the construction site
Please watch it
</tbody>
He had recorded a video of what he had seen with his own eyes and posted it on the Internet
Fresh news about the construction of the Royal Tomb!
Some people who had no interest in the event thus far were also intrigued The moment they pressed the 'play' button, they saas an astonishi+ng scene well beyond their i heavy blocks of stones and carrying them on their shoulders
”Unni, it's heavy”
”Hold on a little longer In order to complete the quest, we must deliver it”
Emotional conversation between sisters!
Even the elderly carried stones Thousands of people, regardless of age and gender were transporting stones Soet crushed beneath the stones To add to their pain, the stones they carried collapsed and turned into rubble
People, atched the video, had theirfrom shock
What the hell is this!
'Is this a concentration caround?'
In the distance, behind the working people, Serabourg was visible
- This is the reality of sculpting
- It ise that I did not to select Sculptor
- We need to raise hbors who started at the frontier kingdom
Envy and jealousy towards players ere able to participate in the B rank quest for 1 gold was over
Over time, blocks of stones were piled up at the tomb's construction site The whole process took a lot of manpower and to cut and carry the stones from the quarry The entire place was surrounded by all kinds of rocks enough to build the tomb!
Different kinds of stones were necessary to build the to The interior and exterior of the tomb will be built out of stones with different colors and shapes If not for thousands of players who cooperated, it would have been impossible
”We really did it”
”Heu-heuk I' from excitement One of the hardest jobs they ever had to do was over However, the tomb is yet to be built It's the start of a full scale construction
Klang! Klang! Klang!
The h stones were accu a ha the uneven surfaces of the stones and then using his sculpture mastery to shape them and place them on their permanent location
Weed was lucky that he chose a sie toreater complexity, it would require ?”
All the players, who participated inwith interest
While Weed was engraving the stones, other players helped piled up the conated places Unexpectedly, this part of the construction went very sdom
Guilds, especially the ones from the center of the continent, ell developed and had larger roup that made a lot of profit Guild can save money and buy the ownershi+p, or claim a market as their possession, which allows them to raise even uild has possession of a castle, they would have er profit Commercial taxes can be collected on a weekly basis and can be invested on various technologies to create more diverse local shops, and ain price
In addition, local craftsreater quality and rarity Therefore, uilds invest all of their assets into trades, and craftsmen of those field, couild's business is going, the rew
Souilds beca not only theuilds started fro their own castle
Other area, where guilds could direct their efforts was old deposit during the work in the uild's wealth, but also the region's welfare in general
However erous ather forces to clear theuildof the uild's approval In that case players were getting a job to clear the uilds, especially those frole with each other But in Rosenheiuilds newly fore of!
The edge of the continent was mostly populated by new players, and they were the ones who created first guilds of Rosenheiuild was to discover an unoccupied mine, they weren't able to claih reputation points within the kingdouilds didn't have much money, so for them, the unexpected opportunity to participate in the construction of the royal toree to any conditions”
”Leave it to us”
Before he distributed the work a hiuild, should I share the quest with theo Ika Guild had ambushed and killed all the Geomchis Of course Weed knew of that incident and decided to contact his master For a few moments there was only silence Then the unexpected response came:
- Give them work
- Wouldn't it be better to refuse?
- No realheart and tolerance Wouldn't that be a nobler act?
- If so, then
- If they ask for work - give them work Now excuse enerosity as the Geomchi did towards the Ika Guild They were eneenerosity when an opportunity for revenge arises - is a really hard and noble decision But Weed knew his master better
'How much could they offend Master If he doesn't want to use other people for revenge He wants to avenge them in person Only then will he caluilds in Rosenheidohly cooperative guild players
At the base of the torowing upward But every next level had sher it went, the smaller were levels
”Ah! This is”
At thatwith those ere hauling stones, beca built
”It's a pyra!”
Once described as a scientifical and technological architectural building, is now being constructed right in front of their eyes
However, it was not a facet of the ancient ends of a pyramid The internal structure was much simpler, because Weed had no experience with construction such as this
Sculpture ame only assisted with the improvement of outer appearance and shape It was no wonder that Weed didn't have any knowledge on the internal structure of a pyramid
'How is this supposed to look like?'
Weed had been thinking about it ever since he decided on the outer appearance, but he still didn't have an answer Therefore, there were no labyrinth, secret passages, or any other otten a map of internal structure of a pyramid from the internet But it'd take a lot more time to recreate such complicated labyrinth systeination
When he was a kid, before his parents died, he remembered how they briefly lived in an apartment 30 flat apartment! And from those memories, he modeled interior of the tomb
It looked like a pyramid from outside, but from the inside, it was a normal 3-room flat with 2 bathrooms In other words, an ordinary Korean flat Of course, Weed wasn't planning to add a balcony or terrace However, construction was already in progress and it was too late to reconsider
The interior was so sie and the left side of the roo but stones that were already piled up Yet other rooms and the bathroo, irls were no exception
”Is a bathroom really necessary inside a pyramid?”
””
”There's no water here”
””
”Do dead need to take a shower?”
”Ahereat artist do not follow cohts of Da Vinci? Before you try and understand an artist's intentions, you should look at the flow and the essence of nature”
”Then you should install a bath too, Weed”
””
Inside the pyra room, and 2 other rooms for art works The latter was provided by Mapan, who personally rushed over and purchased those ite the construction Weed had only spent 1600 gold on ingredients for grass porridge Only vicious businesse scale construction without having to pay their workers
Even on the art works for interior decoration, he had spent 49,700 gold He could have saved on the decorations as well, but decided that successful completion of the quest was ht fail'
A siive him a second chance If he was to die, he'd always be able to return in a day and start over But this ti
He purchased the best androos And of course, he had also placed a few self-made sculptures inside
However, the pyra off the vibe he envisioned!
The nuot higher, however he had a feeling that there was soh the size was enornificent, it was still insufficient The pyra an i who ruled Serabourg
The toreat power A si should be iconic and easily identified The to essential to project such i”
Weed ordered a huge natural rock to be delivered to the pyra it ale as the pyra down on ropes to create sculptures of greater height However, the material was very different Stone is harder than ice, so it was going to take a lot of work
Hit, crack, and slice the rock!
For several days, without stopping for a break, he hung at a great altitude holding on his engraving knife
Creating a gigantic statue wasn't coant lines and fine details were needed! The statue itself was overwhelmed by its size
For the head of the statue, he carved the face of Kind Theodarren, and its body was shaped into a lion The design was simple, but enormous in size And this le rock
Current King, Theodarren, had restored the peripheral Kingdom of Rosenheim, which suffered froainst an old enee army, which became the foundation of peace and prosperity
The King himself had told the tale with pride
Weed re he was told When you work on a sculpture, you can't base it on the outward appearance alone The appearance is is the sculptor has put into his creation, were just as important Because they are what they will pass on the essences that is portrayed by the object, to future generations
Soreat power Music, created by outstanding coh Sis If they were created without feelings, they are an inco Theodarren told hiet his stories He was ht it was just a prelude to the quest Only nohen he orking on the sculpture, he understood how important those stories were, and that he wouldn't be able to create a sculpture without them
'In the body of a lion, swift, and versatile, yet a profound heart
Longevity of the King Eht that can overwhelm any audience
When he makes his move, even the most formidable opponent tre steps
The Lion acts as a protector of the citizens of Kingdom of Rosenheim'
This poem was included with the statue of the lion
The statue of the Lion overlooking the pyra eyes were carved to co!
