The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 99 (2/2)
Of course, she didn’t seens of resistance In fact, she seemed happy
“Van, are there only people like Eleanora a eyes
“… No co to answer He didn’t think that there were, but it was possible that…
Thinking like this, Vandalieu couldn’t completely deny the possibility
“Vandalieu, you’re hurting a girl’s body before she becomes a bride, so you have to take responsibility,” said Darcia
“Uic, wouldn’t that ery on any women?” Princess Levia pointed out
“No, to go as far as to take responsibility…” Bells too far In fact, she was looking forward to receiving surgery from Vandalieu
She did have herfrom Vandalieu overcame them
Just like in that dream
“But I would be happy if you could avoidme too indecent,” she added
Bellmond’s former master, Ternecia, was beautiful even to her eyes However, that beauty was not an elegant one
Though her words and the way she normally dressed were likely the h this ilance at others, let alone flirted with them
“I’ll do my best, but I think it will be fine,” said Vandalieu
Vandalieu had only been face-to-face with Ternecia for a few minutes; he hadn’t particularly felt the prostitute-like iht that even if he replaced every part of Bellmond’s body below the neck with Ternecia’s, she wouldn’t look indecent
“Bell to become muchi-muchi?” asked Pauvina
TLN: This is a childish, onomatopoeic word thattranslation in this case), but the word “voluptuous” doesn’t really fit the vocabulary of the character here
“What about thelikes?” asked Varbie
“I do think that she will beco the muscles,” said Vandalieu “She has plenty already, anyway”
“My body becoue can move freely, there will be no problem,” said Bellmond
“Coroaned
“Well, I do believe that I will becoave a bitter s her to the post-surgery ain a companion
Suddenly, Bellmond became aware of a person who had been silent the whole ti squirm with bloodshot eyes
“By the hat is he doing?” she asked
“Luciliano? He is researching Lump-of-flesh-chan,” said Vandalieu
The convulsing luans, produced as a result of trying to resurrect Darcia using the inco, resurrection device
When luether, they had fused to forer lump of flesh, but no matter how much time passed or what Vandalieu did, it was still a lump of flesh
Vandalieu had tried adding the Deed
However, this , its es had begun
“He was saying that this ht be the birth of a new life,” Vandalieu said
“A new life,” Bellmond repeated “I see”
The two of the violently in an apparatus rese an enormous pot in front of Luciliano
It had for as if it were boiling, and there werepeople’s hands and snake heads that eed and extended a short distance fro back into the lump of meat, over and over
“It looks toboiled in the cauldron of hell,” said Bellmond
“What a coincidence,” said Vandalieu “I think so too”
“So that looks like a human’s head co that it reserow lots of heads?”
It seereeht of dead souls trying to crawl out of hell
Vandalieu couldn’t see its Status yet, and the Appraisal spell only gave hi lump of flesh,” so it was still unclear as to whether it was a living creature or not
“How is it even staying alive, Your Majesty?” Princess Levia asked “It doesn’t even have a single organ, let alone bones”
“We gave it some food from time to time,” said Pauvina
“It’s eats really happily e give it meat!” Jadal added
It see it
“It really eats,” said Pauvina
Despite not having abut ave it blood, Luh the saanisms absorbed food
It indiscri it caerous It was probably best that Vandalieu created an enclosure around it so that the children wouldn’t fall in
“But it doesn’t eat vegetables,” said Jadal
“Even if we feed it a live frog, it just spits it back out,” said Pauvina “Even if we scold it and tell it that it will never beco if it’s too picky, it won’t listen”
“I see, so it sees,” said Vandalieu
It didn’t have ears or a head to listen to scolding, but it was possible that it was relatively safe It was possible that it sis, so Vandalieu decided that he would try seeing whether it would eat live mice, fish or Undead
“It looks like I’iven frogs…”
It seemed that she was a little shocked by the fact that Lump-of-flesh-chan, as a failed atte fed
“Well, Mos are delicious,” Vandalieu told her
But despite the expectations of Luciliano, as engrossed in his research, Lu creature
“Whether it is afor it to beco creature,” Luciliano concluded as he reverted his research on Lump-of-meat-chan to plain observation
Around the end of Septe to drop, the road between Talosheie marshlands to the south was co dairy products, fish, lotus roots and other things in the future, waves of attacks had been conducted to clear the forest of enormous ferns that was in the way and Vandalieu had flattened the ground and used Golem Transmutation to lay stone tiles to create a road
In tiht the threats, and even if they were daed in such situations, they would reabsorb the broken pieces and repair thehway
There was no need to worry about bandits, but it was a highway crossing a Devil’s Nest where erous than bandits would appear, so these functions were necessary
Of course, the monster numbers in the southern forest had already been reduced drastically, so it was possible for the highway to becohway in a little over a decade from now
Now that Vandalieu had dealt with the aftermath of the Cream Expedition and performed the necessary work for future develop was…
“Now then, we’ll begin the universal conscription can,” Vandalieu announced
The training of Talosheim’s non-combatants
“As I explained previously, this cah to at least kill a normal soldier,” said Vandalieu
“That’s different from the universal conscription that I know of,” whispered Lina, the foruild, current receptionist at the trading post and Fester’s lover
Taking no notice of her, Vandalieu continued “As you know, Talosheim is surrounded by Devil’s Nests, and we could be attacked by the Mirg shi+eld-nation and the A to prepare for such times”
“We’ve heard that, but… Even if we level up, on’t beco hard as a stoneained an additional member
As he said, ordinary people with creation-oriented Jobs would not see large gains in Attribute Values even after leveling up Creation-oriented Jobs mostly provided bonuses to creation-oriented skills
And those with creation-oriented Jobs would gain less Experience Points fro monsters than those with coe Just as it would be strange for a warrior to level up by perfor work as a stone monsters
“Yes, I know that,” said Vandalieu “That’s why I’ to have everyone acquire skills”
He was focused on skills rather than Attribute Values Lambda had a convenient skill system, unlike Earth
And once skills were acquired, they generally weren’t lost If they weren’t used for a long tiroeaker, but if this kind of training was held regularly, they could stay in a reasonably useable state
“I see So, you’re telling us to get level 1 skills to begin with,” said Kyne, who had once flown through the sky on Vandalieu’s back As a hunter, he possessed the Archery skill at level 3, so he would be one of the instructors rather than one of the people being instructed
Vandalieu’s policy of having the civilians use crude spears, bows and arrows to at least have level 1 skills was one used by many other policymakers
Civilians with level 1 combat-oriented skills would be able to fend off bandits on their own to sole Rank 3 e
And they would be capable ofto hills and fields that weren’t Devil’s Nests to harvest the blessings of nature, hunt beasts for food and tan their hides for leather
The policy able to reduce the number of permanently-employed soldiers
Of course, it would be probleers turned to banditry due to poverty, but the policy if they were not confident that they could prevent these things fro
Vandalieu’s objective was simply to increase the citizens’ ability to defend themselves, however
“No, level 1 skills are not dependable, so at least level 2,” he said “Of course, it would be helpful if you became able to use martial skills”
“Aren’t you expecting a lot from us?!”
Incidentally, Fester’s Swordsmanshi+p skill had been at level 2 when Vandalieu first met him
Even though he had been an apprentice, he was a youngin that line of work, studied at an adventurer’s school for a year and spent his days gaining experience by facing monsters such as Goblins day after day That level 2 combat-oriented skill had been a result of all of that
“But if you don’t have skills at level 2 and can’t use ainst thein the Devil’s Nests around here,” said Vandalieu
What he said was reasonable Kyne couldn’t ih the excessive outer walls of Talosheiet inside, but he couldn’t deny the possibility that so unexpected could happen
“But won’t we have to go through hellish Spartan training to get level 2 skills?” asked Lina She and the others had stiff expressions, thinking that it was iain level 2 skills in the space of just a few days
“It’s alright,” said Vandalieu “I’ve prepared capable instructors”
He had his instructors stand up to show themselves
The instructors that appeared with clattering sounds were suits of arnized
Indeed, just suits of armor
“They are Living Arhts’ Order,” Vandalieu explained “I will have everyone wear these Living Arh experience”
The people would train by wearing these Undead suits of ar inside them
Lina and the others froze as Vandalieu declared this unprecedented training method
“Now then, let us hurry and begin our training! I must quickly acquire a level 2 skill and return toout of Van-salanced back at everyone else before beginning to choose the instructor that she would wear
