“I have to quickly create a workshop!”
A ceramist needed their oorkshop It was difficult to ith fire in the city and monsters infested the riverside The monsters were just snacks to Weed but they were a fearful existence to the ceramists
They utilized their ability to the utmost and built houses The house was made of pure clay and earth! The lakes and river near Morata had a lot ofe topic a the Morata users
“How much is the cost of construction?”
“It is just water and soil so it is a similar price to the shacks”
“Oh, really? How many days does it take to complete?”
“One day”
“The best! Can you build ive you a fee”
There was an active response a the intermediate users as word of the clay houses spread It was an opportunity for beginner cera point of the clay houses was that it was built with natural materials Therefore it wasn’t co wood so it was popular aood”
“This way It is incredibly warht really set the mood The Morata users could rest and fully enjoy their adventures in the north Friends gathered to bake sweet potatoes and eat fish while discussing their expeditions and hunting Along with honeyed grass porridge, there was nothing rew, they moved out from the shacks to the clay houses The shacks on the hill and the clay houses near the riverside helped toprices The clay houses were the new characteristic of Morata so the ceraain a position early on
Apart from the houses, they made bowls and pottery that sold extredorains Coffee and istered as new specialties
There was an especially big refory affiliated professions Religious orders from the continent dispatched priests and paladins to see the Garden of the Gods and praised the King of Arpen as sained fame and increased its relationshi+p with the various churches Players wearing white unifor from the Central Continent Priests and paladins weren’t the only ones that could be seen in the Garden of the Gods
“How old Why?”
“If you donate here then you can raise your contribution”
People came to the Garden of the Gods to donate a substantial amount to the God they believed in The donations were collected and architects started to construct cathedrals It was the reason why construction still continued in the vicinity of the Garden of the Gods
People who came to the Garden of the Gods also visited the Art Centre and the Arpen Kingdom’s culture expanded

The lords won’t rejoice as the residents would becodom
It is possible for areas with low loyalty to their lord to revolt
If the rebellion succeeds then the area will belong to the Arpen Kingdo will lose honour and diplomatic relations orsen

Weed wasn’t the type to stir a rebellion to expand the region and increase the population Even if the area expanded into the north, Morata would still be the best city
The goods that novice blacksh the athered rare iteeons and traded the loot so the development potential of the city was endless
Word of Morata’s miracle spread on the bulletin boards It was to the extent that novice users unconditionally wanted to start in Morata
While the Arpen Kingdo every day, the other lords in the north couldn’t catch up with its developo and help the to Morata, they would prepare houses and stores Guild members also pulled out weeds to prepare farmland
“Lord-nim, thank you very much”
“No If you feel any discomfort then cohted when a child was born When the residents increased by 3 than 4 people, the population would eventually grow until it becaed to develop Morata from the time it was poor so they believed it was possible
“I’otten the benefits I’ve received fro the territory! Those who heard about Morata’s advanced technology, huge econoe and left in the evening
People cruelly left with their carts full of things!
Many users hunted and adventured in the north so the visitors to the northern lords’ villages increased They had hope but there were no large benefits
“Shall we hunt in the vicinity and then return to Morata in the evening?”
“Let’s quickly hurry”
“I have an appointht… Let’s hunt fast”
“Yes!”
Even if dungeons and hunting grounds developed, users still returned to Morata While the population of the villages painfully increased by 100 people, Morata was increasing by 20,000 or 30,000 people
“Keohuhuhuk!”
Morata’s es could trade with them but they couldn’t catch up with the sculptures and support facilities
“The guild’s funds are in bad shape from the mercenaries hired Hahahat!”
They couldn’t build any buildings They had heard about the Grand Buildings constructed in Morata through the broadcasts The hearts of the northern lords suffered a blow
“Why is Morata’s beer so delicious?”
The 2nd Northern Alliance had been formed to declare war However Morata’s users had increased by dozens of times and their levels also rose so it was difficult The reaction of the other lords was also negative
“War? Oh, that isn’t possible so leave us out of it”
“Why fight when the odds aren’t in our favour? We will just end up paying war preparations to Lord Weed Have a conscience”
“Do you have confidence you in if you declare war on Morata?”
There was a large trade relationshi+p with Morata so the northern lords didn’t want a war Some lords actively developed theirit If a war started with Morata, it would lead to a halt of the exports and most northern users would follow Weed If it ended then their lands would be abandoned by users There wouldn’t be any visits frouilds in the Central Continent had strong power and th but the situation was different in the north Morata had a low tax rate and fantastic environht The historic Garden of the Gods was completed so it had a massive popularity
Meanwhile the lands of the northern lords were infertile, the population’s skill level was low so their loyalty was also low

Ares that wished to becodom
The residents voluntarily decided to accept Weed’s rule There were very suilds
“Ah… Crazy How did this happen?”
The lords were faced with an unenviable situation They would need to mobilize the troops to quell the residents But the loyalty of the residents’ would continue to decline and that would lead to the population decreasing They would gain a tremendous notoriety
“At this rate, it is impossible to follow the speed of Morata’s development…”
It was difficult for their population to even reach 10,000 yet Arpen Kingdom had millions of residents The situation had already deteriorated for the lords The situation would worsen if there was excessiveor monster attacks
Users in the north had e aricultural development They didn’t expect that they would be like a rural village next to Morata Watching the residents protesting, the lords had to make a difficult decision
“What should we do?”
“Guild Master-niap in ainst Morata in the long-term”
“What will happen if we becodohts as Lords but can’t we still keep out investment funds?”
“Several opportunities can be obtained but there will be es then it could develop rapidly Furthery, population, trade, fadom would be shared so there would be a favourable environment
“But we still have absolute power in the area as the Lord If the situation changes later and the village develops…”
So to obediently leave their seats They were attached to their ego and power
But the uild said
“We need to decide in the early days of the Arpen Kingdoht worsen and the village will disappear”
“Guild Master-nio Fortress? People with a higher average level than our guild are hunting there Arpen Kingdo quickly”
“Remember ere driven out of the Central Continent Wasn’t it because we lacked power? Weed won’t cause a war in the north but if he does then our villages will cease to exist”
“If we delay anydoood if we join later There will be a larger econoes The users in the north also won’t have significant expectations If they leave Morata to adventure, our villages are close to they e will have really weak growth potential It won’t be easy to develop on our own”
Theto persuade therated with the Arpen Kingdoreat benefits in trade and taxes
In fact, they watched people trading at the entrance and squares and realized they couldn’t coathered together, it wouldn’t be easy to achieve their goals
The users with co to say Developing a village wasn’t their area of expertise so they didn’tas it was profitable In order to receive class skills, adventures and hunting quests, they needed to go to Morata
They had the power of a lord but their investuilds were also active in the Arpen Kingdodoive up the Lord status
“Everyone’s opinion has been understood Then let’s accept the will of the residents”
