How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

- Episode 2

“Horses… … do I have to?”

“of course? Have you been busy these days? But suddenly he said he would build a city. Shouldn't I listen?”

Can't I just say my true feelings?

I nodded lightly and said my true intention.

“Actually, from long ago. It was my dream to build a resort in a sunny and warm land.”

Of course, the purpose is self-interest.

Of course, today's Pahilia is also a good place to live, and it's a perfect paradise.

Frozen ground is a thing of the past. Nowadays, there are hot springs in large cities, and it is truly a kingdom... … No, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the best resort on the continent.

‘Even so, I can't help the feeling that comes from the difference in the fundamental environment.'

Human greed knows no bounds.

and me. Arell's greed is even more limitless.

Of course, the next desired place is the southern country where the hot sun shines down.

“Because the location there was perfect.”

“In short, you want to build another resort there?”

“That’s how it is!”

A snowy land is good, but a land with direct sunlight is also good!

I nodded my head and explained at length why it was suitable as a resort, and in the end, everyone had no choice but to agree with a half-embarrassed laugh.

“Anyway… … If you get entangled in just playing, you can’t stop being stubborn.”

Originally, I was a little stubborn.

At least when it comes to play, it's going to attract all the useless surplus spirit.

There is no reason to be impatient, but there is no need to take your time leisurely either.

Waiting for the external procedures for the construction of the second resort to proceed properly, I decided to move so that I could start work right away.

i.e. what we do.

“First of all, it would be good to take a closer look to see if there are any other problems here.”

preliminary survey.

… … It was an excuse to run away to a moderately warm southern island.

Seina and Dia accompany this expedition, and many others have formed a pre-investigation team for city architecture.

Anyway, I need to work a little bit to figure out about this place as soon as possible.

“Hmm? It would be most polite to wait leisurely at the camp barracks, but in times like these, I have to move too. Right Dia?”

“… … of course.”

D.A. quietly nods and agrees behind me as I stand out confidently.

And on the other hand, Seina sighed as if she couldn't stop it.

“… … Is it an investigation?”

I ask in a somewhat astounding tone.

“huh? It's an investigation, right?”

I deliberately shrugged my shoulders and looked around.

In front of you, it's so blue that if you look closely, you can see the clean sea with blue water droplets and low waves.

And although it was slightly damaged with traces of battle, the beach seemed to be pretty good anyway.

“hmm. It is a wonderful sea.”

“I can see Allel-sama enjoying the sea view, right?”

“Since ancient times, the basis of an investigation is to be thrilled.”

“… … The basics of momentary investigation are play. I heard that.”

“If you pretend, you pretend.”

There's no need to deny it anymore. I decided to show my true feelings to the fullest.

“Actually, the investigation was an excuse, and I was hot anyway, so I thought we should spend some time at the beach in moderation.”

“… … haha. Well, that way is more comfortable for us.”

From an escort's point of view, it's easier to goof around in a moderately safe place than get involved in something dangerous.

good. Let's goof around in moderation to become a master who doesn't worry the people around us.

In fact, even though it seems like they are just playing irresponsibly, they have surprisingly done everything they need to do.

‘Anyway, I've just scratched the surface.'

After the decisive battle, I and other collaborators consulted and searched it several times.

There will be nothing dangerous.

Realistically, it's common to be worried that the ground collapsed in the aftermath of the battle or that a strange ecosystem was formed due to the influx of monsters from the outside.

‘Because that's enough to leave it to others.'

I mean, it doesn't matter if you spend your time here enjoying the sea to your heart's content.

“Ego? Then, let’s explore in advance where and how much you can play.”

The sea is also a concern, and I want to check the surrounding topography once again.

“Not even a child… … It's just trouble if you go too far.”

“… … it's okay. When the time comes, I will move it with magic.”

“No, I'm not going to act like a child, either? How old do you think I am?”

Lately, I've been paying attention to being calm enough for my social age.

… … Well, it seems that no one around me agrees.

Hey, isn't there a similar saying that a man looks like a boy no matter how old he is?

I started looking around in that half-excited state.

“Unexpectedly, the environment on the sea side… … Well settled.”

“I don’t know the value that Arell-nim is talking about. At least I think the scenery itself is fine.”

Seina nodded in agreement.

As a result of the war, it was virtually neglected and became an isolated island over time. It felt like an ecosystem of its own had begun to take root here as well.

The waves were rough at the time, but the equipment that created the environment was also destroyed, so now there are only calm waves.

It's a nice sight.

“The water is clear... … It would be perfect if the details could be worked on later during construction.”

Planting corals using magic or other techniques. If you decorate it so that moderately good-looking fish come and form a school, it will feel like a natural sea.

good night.

“It seems that there are no monsters around here either.”

Dia said that after looking around the sea from above.

“You are lucky. Usually, in this case, the beach becomes a monster den.”

This peaceful sight is a delight in its own way, as the budget was planned to expel monsters in the future.

“Maybe it's the aftermath of a battle.”

“Is it an influence?”

“why. The battle was quite fierce here... … Did you hear that?”

For now, I have no intention of revealing the truth any time in the future, so I explained by referring to the reported information.

There were all kinds of monstrous strongmen here. Including the existing ones, me and other collaborators who came in to destroy this place.

How did the place where those guys fought in the middle of the battle look like in the eyes of monsters and dangerous creatures?

‘To put it bluntly, it must have been a hellish scene where nuclear bombs were constantly exploding... …

that would be terrible

There, the energy of such people is bound to remain for quite a long time.

It's not like there's any magic left, but you might still feel something dangerous in the senses of things like wild monsters.

‘Well, just in case, once the city is built, we can hire dragons to patrol it.'

First of all, they are the pinnacle of the ecosystem, so they are perfect for preventing dangerous wild monsters from approaching.

It is also a dragon for pest prevention.

“Anyway, it's literally land that came down to build a resort.”

Isn't this the feeling of benefiting unintentionally?

I never thought I'd think of renovating the place where I fought with Herial into a tourist attraction.

Didn't they say that people with good salesmanship benefit even if they fall backwards?

Unexpected places are starting to show considerable value.

“Now that it's like that, you shouldn't see it with your own eyes, but should you feel it?”

I smiled and pretended to warm up moderately.

“???? ah. no way.”

Seina and Dia predict my actions and narrow their eyes.

Shall I dry it? don't dry it I'm thinking about it.

Of course you can't dry it.

“If there is an ocean, shouldn’t we try swimming?”

That's the human instinct to play.

So I rushed towards the place where the water was moderately shallow.

I intentionally turned off the magic tool I had for temperature control. As soon as you feel the heat as it is, your body wants the cold.

Just right.

And take it without hesitation.

Enjoy the cool sea water all at once

.

“The temperature of the water is nothing to blame.”

I've been diving before when I invaded this place, but the environment is different now and then.

That's fine.

“It really doesn’t change with age.”

“What if you're frustrated too?”

Of course, the two of them also have measures to prepare for the heat here, but they will still feel a little stuffy.

Above all, playing alone is no fun.

In the end, the two of them hesitated at first, but then, as if they couldn't help it, they prepared to play in the water together with me.

These are my close associates who always adjust to me.

After playing for a while as if experiencing the sea here a little bit, we blew away all the water and salt with Dia's magic and looked around with a refreshing feeling.

“Slowly… … I took a quick look around... … In the future, this area can be used as an artificial beach.”

“It’s a beach… … Are you referring to places like Kelia that you have been to before?”

“huh. I'm not trying to imitate that queen, but at least I think I'll be competitive.”

Of course, it may not be a rarity compared to Kelia, which relies on the potential of different races for its tourism business, but even with such a clear sea and climate, it is bound to be a sufficient weapon.

“no! Rather, this is the standard tourist destination!”

Sometimes the basics are the best!

For some reason, Seina was looking at me with such excitement that she couldn't stop it.

“Come to think of it, Arel-sama seems to secretly like the sea, right?”

“ah… … Does it look like that?”

“I see enough. Everyone probably knows.”

Just as Seina said, I occasionally said or did something obsessed with the beach.

I am aware of that as well.

That's because I actually like it.

“Actually, I never said anything until now. Originally, I wanted to have a manor with the sea.”

“Eh? Was that a sword?”

Well now it's a past dream

In particular, Seina, who had been appointed as an escort even before I came to Fahilia, was perplexed as if she had never heard of it.

“what? Wasn’t Arel-nim excited about this and that back then?”

“… … I don't know because I wasn't there at the time, but I heard that from someone who was there at the time.”

Dia, who wasn't there at the time, was also puzzled.

Well, it is true that I made a fuss while preparing to move after receiving the landlord, and there is no one who does not know that.

“It's true that I was really excited about receiving the territory. I was also busy making plans. But that was a problem before that.”

Even if you receive a present, it is the same principle as having a taste and secretly wishing for something.

Like a child praying to Santa to send him a present.

“When I was young, I wanted to have a manor with the sea.”

Actually, it's a taste that has been firmly established since a long time ago, but first of all, let's pretend it's a childhood dream.

“When I was young… … How old are you?”

“Ah, eighteen years old? About?”

Well, actually, it was a long time ago.

“Anyway, in the past, I felt like I wanted to get my hands on a territory with the sea.”

“But Mr. Arell? In Ernesia Kingdom... …

“huh. There was no sea.”

At that time, in order to firmly know the environment within the kingdom, it was a time when he was devouring various materials, so that dream was immediately shattered.

the sea... … No sea! I got frustrated there once.

Of course, it was a one time thing.

I had no choice but to give up after 5 seconds.

“After that, it doesn't matter what territory this happened to. I was going to go out and see you, but I was going to grind my teeth.”

“… … Anyway, is the territory what you wanted to get?”

“huh. Well, for some reason, I flew to Fahilia a little earlier than expected.”

Anyway, it seems like it was yesterday.

Memories are fresh.

It's a little thrilling. It's now that I'm going to build a decent resort town on that land that only has snow.

And because they are burning with ambition to build a second city.

I've come a long way too.

“Anyway, with this, the sea I longed for is now in my hands.”

Tourism resources are indeed honey.

The resources of the overwhelming environment are so great that it is difficult to keep up with any skill.

This is why I was heartbroken when I saw a country that uses the sea as a tourism resource.

Unlike a port, the clear sea that can be used for tourism is really valuable. How
