The early morning sea fog envelops the awakened Liberty City.

Residents who had rested all night were ready to get busy. The sea fog has not yet subsided, and the smoke of the cooking has enveloped Liberty City, which is still a small town.

Loew had just lost his job because no new buildings were being built in the city, and he was about to try his luck at the Great Wall of the North, which had no walls, but a long wall under construction in the north that ran east from the foot of the forested mountains.

As a result, he was recruited by the castle lord's mansion and said to build a magnificent cathedral in the city.

Less than 1 in 10 people in Breezy City had a wife who urged him to go without even asking for his salary, and everyone was honored to build a church for the God of faith.

Loew only believes in the goddess of wealth a little, but his neighbor Jimmy is a devout believer, but he was recruited by digging a river, and he also came to the door with a few pounds of dried fish, hoping to exchange with Loew-

"I'm sorry, but I'm equally devout in my belief in the gods."

Loew rejected him...... What if the church was built and blessed by the goddess of wealth?

Set off to the site of the church, which is still a wasteland, and the shopping street is next door.

"Who will look at the drawings!"

The Minister of Architecture, who could only hear voices and could not see people, shouted.

"I ......" Loew, who found his voice drowned out in the noisy crowd, raised his hand and shouted, "I! ”

The crowd parted, and a low barrel "rolled" over.

"Very good, now that you are the captain, choose five people to follow you."

Wine...... No, the benevolent dwarf threw a drawing at Loew, who unconsciously straightened up in the gaze of those around him.

"Loew, how the do you look at drawings!" Those who knew him shouted jealously.

"I'm in the worker's class at school." Loew looked up proudly, "You either choose magic or potions...... You mudbloods deserve to be mages too? ”

Loew chose five workers who did not scold him in the midst of the scolding, and ran to the construction site to look at the drawings first. His first impression was of the movement of the guest rooms on the second floor of the tavern...... Oh, what a blasphemous thought!

But the drawings do divide a church into chapels, and Erie Gravel gathers the captains together and tells them that this will be a temple of gods with statues of all the gods in it - and you will be the builders of this temple of immortals.

The captains were enthusiastic, and then the boring laying of the foundation began......

It's still far from the start of building the church, and they have to lay the foundation first, and it is estimated that it will be done before the rainy season...... Without the earth element, all construction was forced to slow down.

It is difficult for them to replicate the miracle of building Liberty City in the first two months.

From early morning to night, the workers received their salary: a silver coin, and the captain gave an additional 50 copper coins.

Many workers refuse to be paid, they don't want money to desecrate their faith.

"Take it, this is for you from the city lord."

But there is also an inequality in Liberty City: Annan is greater than the gods.

Loew accepted his wages without guilt, and even the goddess of wealth would be relieved to know about it.

"We should have a place for Lord Annan in the Temple of the Gods!"

A shout came from nowhere.

……

"They talk about making you a god." Ingrid said.

Annan, who was flipping through a geography book and pretending to work hard, raised his head: "Become a god? ”

"The god of magical images."

The fire of curiosity that had just been raised by Annan was extinguished: "...... Forget it. ”

"Really? I don't think there are legends and demigods competing with you for this priesthood. ”

Annan thought of himself in the future and gathered with a bunch of gods:

"I am the god of light, and I fill this world with light."

"I am the goddess of the sea, and I control the whole ocean."

It was Annan's turn to say, "I am the god of magical images, and I take magical images for everyone to see." ”

Ingrid showed a look of regret: "Recently, there have been some rumors in the city about mad dogs...... Rumors are spreading that the "Grand Duke" of Gilles is going to attack Liberty City.

"We shouldn't have traded with the surrounding towns, right?"

"The news brought by the merchant ships also said that the 'Grand Duke' of Gilles was preparing to levy us, so the merchant ships brought in food and resources."

Annan thought of the many boats floating in the bay these days, and they did not dock or leave. It seems that this is the reason.

"Didn't you tell them our purchase price?"

"Having said that, they are ready to be mad in us...... Lucky...... When the Mad Dog Grand Duke attacked, he sold us food and resources, as well as the location of the ship. Ingrid eventually succumbed to Annanqi's title.

"It looks like they're going to waste a lot of time and money.

Annan did not sympathize with these merchants at all: "What about our mercenaries? ”

Annan handed over the matter to Francois, who had been asking the Mercenary Guild to come to Liberty City a few days ago.

"The Mercenary Guild agreed to settle in, I temporarily put the Guild in an empty warehouse, and a master-level mercenary group accepted our commission."

"Master?"

"The head of the regiment needs to be a master professional and complete the challenge." Ingrid had become accustomed to Annan's ignorance, "My commission to them was to expel all those who lingered outside the walls. ”

This should solve the problem of lack of staff in Liberty City.

Annan, who was leaning on the sofa, sat up a little straighter: "Do you think this mercenary will stay in Liberty City forever?" ”

"Their head is male."

"Looks like there's no chance...... Remember to ask Francois to find some mercenaries who have a chance to stay in Liberty City. ”

Ingrid wanted to continue talking about political affairs, but the shrewd Annan interrupted her: "Is Lilith still studying with Dean Brehem?" ”

"Yes."

"Find a reason for the mercenary group to see Dean Brehim."

This should dispel some unnecessary troubles.

"Okay, about-"

Annan turned the page: "If you have nothing else to do, go and get busy, I'm going to continue reading." ”

"Okay."

Ingrid didn't say anything more, and suddenly turned around when she went out: "Your book is reversed." ”

Annan's movements paused, and he returned to normal: "I'm practicing my ability to read books backwards." ”

"What's the point?"

Annan put down the book he had taken down and said solemnly: "Maybe one day in the future, I will be caught by the bad guys, and they will hang me upside down, and a book not far away will become my lifeline." ”

Ingrid responded by closing the door and leaving.

Annan breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at the window: Lily was jumping onto the windowsill on a flower bed.

"The cat sees the stupid cat."

"Is it playing outside?"

"Uh-huh." Lily was lying on the windowsill in the sun.

Annan couldn't help but want to touch a few handfuls, and when he came to the window, he suddenly squinted his eyes and looked out of the street.

The witch was wandering outside the City Lord's Mansion.
