Chapter 39- Mission (5)
‘This is…’
It was a beautiful figure, as if you were attracted to it without even knowing it.
Have you ever seen anything with such a luster?
Even water viewed under the moonlight at night would not be able to have such a luster.
“It’s not something you need to be interested in. This spear is only for Lempria-sama.”
Alfrea glared at Isaac.
She was quite short, but her upper body was pumped up from her blacksmith work, and when she said, staring at her ferociously, Isaac couldn’t help but shrink her body involuntarily.
“Don’t look at it that way. It’s not like you’re just making one anyway, right?”
Iron is not a metal that can only be used by special people, but a metal that should be spread throughout the empire.
These were the words spoken by the goddess of wisdom and the god of blacksmithing at the same time.
Now, mass production was difficult because processing was difficult, but in terms of reserves, there was much more iron.
If you go over a few mountains to the east, there are tons of reddish-colored stones buried there.
“This is my first glorious work that I made with only Lempria-sama in mind. Other people’s interest in things for Lempria-sama…”
“Then it would be fine if it was something else?”
“Yes?”
“If you can make one, doesn’t that mean you can make two too? You won’t be keeping the facilities as they are.”
“Yes, but…”
“Make it.”
Alfrea munched her mouth and looked at Lempria, barely nodding her head.
“Okay, but it might take a while. With such a high failure rate, I’m not sure when I’ll be able to tell you when I’ll be able to give you an accurate answer.”
“Please do it after 3 days. Did you understand?”
“Yes?”
Lempria left behind the bewildered Alfrea and pulled Isaac by the arm.
“Then I’ll be back in 3 days, so should I make a spear identical to mine?”
Before Alfrea could even open her mouth to say anything, Lempria had already walked out.
“Three days…”
I picked up the iron ore that Alprea had piled up in advance.
It seems that I have to work for about three days without rest.
“Can I come out like this?”
Isaac, dragged out by Lempria’s superpowers, asked in bewilderment, and Lempria smiled broadly.
“Of course Alfrea has her abilities, but her lack of self-confidence is a problem. She’s under strong pressure from the outside, so I’m sure she can make four spears in three days. I’ll give it.”
Even though the emperor said so, there was nothing Isaac could say.
“Then where are we going now?”
Isaac was sure that this time he would be able to go to the barracks and receive reinforcements.
I didn’t know how powerful the spear made of metal I’d seen for the first time would be, but the spear wasn’t given to all soldiers, and the battle situation wouldn’t change even if I held it alone.
“Didn’t I say that it was my first time to see the island? I can’t go up north until the spear is made anyway, so I’m moving to give you a tour of the island until then.”
“So, is there any additional support?”
“What more do you need?”
Isaac can’t help but be taken aback by Lempria’s calm voice.
Does this woman really think she has enough support with one spear?
‘Maybe you’re overestimating me.’
As she got closer to the draft, she felt her new ball inflate.
If Lempria had heard these rumors as they were, she might have overestimated her own abilities and felt that it would be enough to increase Isaac’s strength by supporting the spear.
Hearing Lempria’s next words that immediately followed, Isaac realized that everything he thought was an illusion.
“I, the mightiest warrior and wisest philosopher in the Empire, will accompany you to the north. What more do you need?”
“Yes?”
Isaac had no choice but to ask himself involuntarily.
No, why did the emperor follow him?
It’s an emperor who controls a large territory, but she leaves her business alone.
“Didn’t you understand? I’m saying that I’m going to personally support you guys.”
“Emperor’s money…”
-Paaak!
“Are you saying Lempria herself?”
“So, why not?”
“As you are in the emperor’s seat, don’t you have something to do?”
“You can leave it to the philosophers. At this point, let me introduce you to the philosophers.”
Lem Pria leads her Isaac, and her Isaac finds her and travels to where she first came.
“Have you ever heard of a thing called philosophy, Isaac?”
“Isn’t it the study of things useful to the human world?”
“That’s right. It is a study directly given to us by Lady Catria, the goddess of wisdom, and Lady Lemfra, the god of creation. The essence of philosophy is not to entrust everything to the gods, but to help human beings solve their own problems and develop their abilities. God There is no obligation to answer all our questions, so it is a study in which we find the laws of the world one by one.”
“I see.”
Isaac nodded her head, thinking that it was a very difficult story.
Although Lemfra named it philosophy, the study they were talking about included a much wider scope than general philosophy.
It was a study of everything, including human thought as well as natural science, technical science, and sociology.
After time passed and civilization developed, it would be necessary to go to the lower studies separately, but in the current level of civilization, everything could be tied to one study.
“Look! How big and small things all fall at the same time!”
As she approached a group of philosophers, an unnamed woman dropped a large stone and a small stone at the same time from a height.
The two stones landed on the floor at the same time, and the philosophers around them cheered.
Isaac didn’t know why he was so happy when he saw the stone fall to the ground.
“There must be many things that you cannot understand. The ideas of philosophers are often far removed from those of ordinary people.”
“Yes…”
As Isaac was looking around with unfamiliar eyes, a man of considerable size approached them.
“Who is the man next to you?”
The man looked at Lempria and asked.
‘This person doesn’t even know who this person is!’
He looks quite old, but that didn’t mean he was allowed to use short words with the emperor.
It was not yet an era when the emperor’s authority was properly established, but he had the minimum courtesy to treat those who ruled him.
“I’m a northern warrior named Isaac.”
Lem Pria said, putting her arm around Isaac’s shoulder.
“That’s right.”
The unidentified man glanced at Isaac’s entire body.
“You’re a nice guy.”
The four-letter word good man could mean so many things.
Yes, a heroic man is a good man.
Isaac forcibly erased any other meaning that came to mind.
“This is my father.”
There was a reason for using short language with Lempria.
‘If I gave instructions without knowing anything, I could have been in big trouble.’
“My name is Isaac.”
“Yes, please take good care of my daughter from now on.”
Paint grabbed Isaac’s hand and shook it.
The word “Forward” He said kept lingering in my head, but I forcibly forgot it.
Yes, I guess you want to watch over your daughter who is leaving for the war in the north.
******
Lempria and Isaac left for the North with a spear and a bow each.
“So, is this the weapon you made?”
“Yes. The power of the stinger is not very strong, but the poison applied to the tip will help incapacitate the opponent.”
Lempria fiddled with her spittle, then spread her spittle inside and blew lightly.
“Hook!”
For the first time using a stinger, the stinger flew very far and slammed into the tree.
‘Surely Lemfra’s apostle.’
To handle the first weapon so strongly…
“It’s definitely much easier to use than a bow. Instead, it’s definitely less powerful, so did you make up for the lack of power with poison? It’s definitely an excellent weapon.”
Isaac’s shoulders went up at Lempria’s praise.
Contrary to his exaggerated achievements, the needle was purely a weapon he made.
Such a weapon was strong in the Empire and was well-received by high officials, and I couldn’t help but feel good about it.
“Let’s rest here today.”
Both of them moved as fast as ordinary people, but it wasn’t enough to reach from the capital to the north in one morning.
Upon entering the village, Lempria and Isaac were warmly welcomed.
No one knew Isaac’s face, but because Lempria had passed through almost every village during her previous conquests, the villagers knew her face.
“You can rest here.”
The village chief guided us through the two houses, and of course Isaac moved towards the smaller house.
-Chin
“Where are you going?”
“Wouldn’t it be right for me to sleep in a small house?”
“Why should I sleep separately?”
“Yes?”
Lempria dragged Isaac into the big house with glistening eyes.
From the big house the two of them were in, wild moans continued to leak out.
