Chapter 56: Welfare Practices

Winkel never understood the appeal of agriculture.

How could people trude through dung heaps, rough cows, or labor in the fields when they could look for gold? Peasant status is the definition of servile work.

But when he opened his bag of coin seeds and imagined that they would grow into glittering piles that he could then harvest, the dragon realized he was wrong. Watching his gold grow out of the ground will make him an honest dragon.

Especially since he watched his servants do the heavy lifting for him most of the time, which is what a true ruler should do.

"Goblin cavalry!" Van Kerr ordered his minions to dig trenches in the land of the farm. "More holes with feathers at the bottom!" My coins deserve the best care!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" His reptilian retinue happily obeys him, while Chocolate casts a spell to help with the harvest.

"How many more plots do you want to plant?" Golem Rollo asked, crossing his arms. "Rollo has to harvest his tomatoes."

"I want a field of gold, a garden of silver, a greenhouse of precious stones!" Each one is as tightly guarded as my vault!"

Winkel opened his bag, carefully took out a cute little coin, and put it in a hole. This was the most important part of the whole process, and the part he was reluctant to delegate.

Like a sheep on a cow's cake, his chief of staff ran straight into the field, followed by "Delicious Allison", "Co

pseli

G Jules" and "Manlin Charlene".

"Hey, Vic!" Sweet Chocolate waved to her companion.

"Hi Chocolati

e。 His favorite servant greeted her as well, and turned to Winkel. Your Majesty, we have to talk. ”

"Choc, how did I tell you about the fields?" Delicious Allison told Sweet Chocolate with a frown. "Don't experiment anymore!"

"But the tomatoes grow faster because I fed the soil with demonic blood!" I'm sure the coins will come alive too!"

"When the evil Furybon inevitably returns, they can protect themselves," Winkel told his entourage. "Dragons must think ahead."

"Your Majesty, coins are not made like this," argued Manlin Victor.

"I know, minion. You dig gold out of the ground and mint it into coins. ”

"You know what?" His friend stared at his master with strange eyes. And then ...... Why?"

"When you begged me to be my servant, I thought this class system was rubbish, so I decided to keep an open mind. If this system can create a magical royal cloak for me out of thin air, why should I question how to grow gold?"

Manlin Victor was silent for a second, then rubbed his forehead. "I hate things that don't make sense when they make sense."

"Yes, minion, once again I win with logic."

"Planting gold is not about planting gold coins in the ground first, and then harvesting the gold tree later!" Victor protested. "Normally, it simply kills monsters, and when killed, monsters drop a large sum of money!"

… Oh?

That's even better!" Some monsters will give more gold than others?"

His chief of staff frowned. "That's a good question," he said, glancing at the man who was collecting Joris's body. "In Out

emo

🤔 Are there any monsters dropping more loot than usual?"

"If defeated, the Golden Goose and the Jackpot Golem will drop a lot of riches," the necromancer said, but soon shattered Winkel's hopes. "However, they have been hunted to the brink of extinction by adventurers and are very rare."

"The most lucrative monsters right now are the Raffles Fairy, the Sea Serpent and the Phoenix, because their corpses can be used to craft high-quality materials," Allison said. "But good luck finding one, let alone killing it."

"Maybe that's true for the Manlin, but the dragon never flinched in the face of a challenge. We're going to find these animals and stab them to death right away. ”

"Your Majesty, we have enough gold."

Winkel glared at his chief of staff. "Manling Victor, I can't let you be lazy, because my bet with Bingfeng is still going on. For the sake of all dragons, my treasure dwarfs his own. I can't let this poser be the richest of them all. ”

Manlin Victor exchanged glances with the other Minions, then took a deep breath. "Your Majesty," he began. "We are in Mu

mu

i

There's too much gold. We're all over here. ”

"There won't be much gold," Winkel replied, confused. "Minions, are you okay? Did the fairy cast a spell on you?"

"Nope! I'm serious!" His chief of staff's words made the dragon blink. "The more goods you have, the more value it loses!" Harvesting so much gold, we are causing a nationwide depreciation of gold!"

Intelligence vs Charisma Test... Fail!

You can't comprehend the widespread impact of the dragon's lifestyle on the economy!

Realizing what was happening, Winkel immediately aimed his chief of staff with his terrifying magic. "Little demo

ba

e !”

The spell hit his servant head-on, causing him to fall, but it was unable to expel the demon that had taken him. "Minions, Frebon has cast a vicious spell on Manlin Victor!" Vai

queu

Lose one's head. "I can't break the magic!"

"Your Majesty, I'm not—"

"The chief is possessed!" The kobold rangers panicked, and Red bore the brunt of it. "We must restrain him!"

"We can't fight the Chief of Staff, it's against all my beliefs!" Yellow complaints.

"Your Majesty, Victor is in his right mind." Juris defended the chief of staff, and then said some nonsense. "As sad as you are, he's telling the truth. Your gold is depreciating. ”

“Fu

ibo

Turned my gold into lead while I wasn't there?!" Van Kerr roared. That's why. The sight must have driven his minions insane after a nervous breakdown!

"No, no! It's natural!" Manlin Victor confused his master even more. "If we bring too much money from abroad to Mu

mu

i

Such a small place, it is inevitable that it will depreciate, leading to an increase in prices!"

"Gold naturally shines!" Vai

queu

Insist. "It won't depreciate because it's essentially the shiniest metal in the world!"

"Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with the flash!" The value of a currency fluctuates, and the more we have, the lower its value becomes!"

What's going on with this hysteria? Gold depreciation? Has his net worth shrunk?" My collection is the largest in the world!" Winkel defended his precious legacy. "Hoarding gold will eventually increase its value. Otherwise, the dragon's way of life will be invalid, and the dragon's way of life is different from your crazy 'theory' and is the absolute truth. ”

"But, Your Majesty, please consider it." Manlin Victor insisted that he had sunk too deep into the nonsense. "If everyone has gold, then it's not special. Thanks to His Majesty's actions, now everyone can get gold for free. It's not special anymore!"

The intelligence check was partially successful!

"Oh, I see!" Winkel finally understood. "I see what you mean, minion. You can put it in simpler terms. ”

Manlin Victor frowned. "Do you understand?"

"If my collection were made of gold only, it wouldn't be as impressive as my collection of other shiny metals to complement it!" As a result of my enlightened leadership, even my subordinates have become wealthy, and I have to raise my standards and broaden my horizons! I have to restore my collection with newer, more avant-garde materials like platinum!"

Venk came up with a great idea today! Once again, the dragon was amazed at his vision.

His chief of staff and Stiti Allison exchanged glances. "Vic, this is the best result you can get."

Victor sighed. "Good enough".

"Not good enough, minion!" Winkel encouraged his entourage: "Good enough for those who are content not to be good enough!" We're going over there looking for my treasure!"

"So, has His Majesty agreed to stop mining gold and instead find new sources to decorate his treasures?"

"On this matter, minion, I promoted you to the head of my treasure research and development." "It's a very important responsibility because there are fewer and fewer tasks, but I'm sure your innovative spirit will help me a lot."

"So, if Your Majesty agrees to gold mining, maybe you will agree to help with the farming?" Victor suggested that he was already working. "Most of your empire is desert, and we can't exploit their underground resources without serious landscaping."

"I'm going to try this (Feng Shui) class that Manlin Henry told us about." Winkel declares that he aspires to become a wizard like his cousin.

"Kanyushi?" The delicious Alison sounds like a pleasant surprise. "I'm also thinking about taking a level course for this course; I have all the magic books and magic marijuana I need in my cabin. ”

"Magical weeds?" Manlin Victor frowned at the fairy, who smiled innocently.

"I must warn Your Majesty that it will take you a while to learn this subject due to the high ranks."

"I'm a dragon," Winkel replied proudly. "I'm going to be a wizard now."

"Oh, oh, about magic." Chocolate Sweet smiled at Manling Victor, and Manling took a step back. "Vic, can you notice me?"

"You Mark?"

"You can tag any monster and teleport them to you, right?" Maybe it doesn't just work for horses!"

"Oh, like summoning Manling Victor when I need him?" Van Kle nodded happily. "It's going to be very useful." By summoning his manling, who in turn summons other minions, the dragon can make his servants work for him at any time. Splendor.

"Exactly!" Chocolate Chocolate recognized his genius. "It's going to be very useful!" of the battle. Fight!"

"That'...... That...... That can actually be ......" Manlin Victor carefully considered the offer before curiosity and loyalty overpowered him. "Black Knight".

A black light enveloped Chocoli

e for a moment, and then dissipated. "Does it work?" She asked eagerly.

"I don't think so," replied Manlin Victor, Chocolate sighing in disappointment.

"Are you done?" The Waste Golem asked. "Rollo needs to tidy up his yard."

"I'll get the spellbook." Allison assured.

Eventually, Venquil became a true wizard.

As night fell, Victor Dalton lay on his king-size bed, trying to chase away a dangerous thought.

He lied.

You have a mount that says: Revodon Chocolate.

He did succeed with the [Black Knight] Pe

k marked Chocolati

e。 He received a notice to prove it. That means he can summon her now.

If he can mark a banshee and summon her at any time, it will work.

of the battle.

Fight!

If ambushed in his bedroom, he can summon reinforcements! Especially if he could get more marks in that class!

No, Vic, that's a serious abuse of the elite (Chaos Knights) class. A serious abuse of the power that God has given you to fight against demons. As far as you know, even if you try, you won't summon chocolate in your bedroom. If you do, nothing will happen. Nothing!

Vic, don't do that.

Remember what the angel Mill said on your shoulder. Think about your karma. Think of those angels. Consider living a life of moderation and morality so that you can safely retire in a red tape paradise and not do anything exciting throughout your afterlife.

No, it didn't strengthen his resolve. This reasoning simply doesn't work!

Victor jumped out of bed and circled around the room, trying to convince himself not to make a big mistake.

He must think about humanity.

Think of his vows! Don't beep unless it's to save humanity!

If he doesn't pass the test of mental tenacity, Victor is doomed to the demise of his entire race! That would be tantamount to crossing the line, treacherously abandoning his last bit of morality and completely devoting himself to the life of a monster!

Power, wealth, longevity, and anytime, anywhere!

Victor realizes that arguing with his subconscious mind is much more difficult than imagined. It was as if he had a devil in his shoulder, but the angel had left in disgust.

Maybe he could try to summon chocolate, just to test the café. Even if he called the girl to his bedroom, he was able to resist the temptation to do nothing that would make him regret it. He has willpower.

It's going to be a test to see if he can mark, like, Mir! Nothing to worry about!

"S-Sue ......" His heart was pounding like a locomotive, and his curiosity overwhelmed his common sense, "S-Sue summoned the chocolate ......"

As he uttered the cursed words, a bright light flashed through the room, proving that it was true that the café was indeed working that way.

What was achieved...... What was achieved......

It's horrible!

Chocolate appeared just as advertised, except that she was wearing one of the ugliest devil's fur pajamas he had ever seen, leaving him with no room for imagination.

Unfortunately, she must have skinned the animal needed to make the dress a few hours ago, as he could see and smell the blood on the clothes. She wears a makeshift hat, has black rabbit ears loosely tied around her head, and holds a skinned rabbit in her left hand and a hunting knife in the other.

"Haha! As she spoke, she stretched out her arms and smiled cutely and scarily because she still had blood on her cheeks. "So what? How do I look? How do I look?"

Victor replied, screaming in horror.

She screamed too, looking like a madman.

The undead guards guarding his bedroom opened the door and prepared for battle. "It's okay!" Before they could attack Chocolate Chocolate, Victor shouted. "It's okay, it's a false alarm!"

The mindless robots didn't say anything and closed the door casually. "What beep?" Victor asked, Chocolate Chocolate's shoulder shaking embarrassedly. "Why are you dressed like that?"

"I ......," her voice sounded as ashamed as he was uneasy. I kind of wish you could call me, so I spent the night making this dress. I'm almost done!"

"That'...... What about the rabbit?" Why are you wearing the skin of a dead rabbit?"

"Don't men like girls dressed as rabbits?" Because they want to eat?" The chocolate seemed to crumble, and the rabbit's ears somehow folded. "Don't you like it?" Am I messed up?"

She seemed so cute and vulnerable when she said this, which made up for her fear.

At that moment, Victor realized that a person can be attracted and feared by a person at the same time. "Look," he said at last. "Why don't you take a bath and wash the blood off, dispose of the rabbit, and throw the knife somewhere?"

And then ...... And then I'll go home?"

"Then we'll try again, but do it right."

The chocolate sparkles like the sun.
