Chapter 45: Of course, I chose to develop

Sick?

"Where did you hear all this?" asked Sean, confused.

Probably because of the relationship between Luke who trusts him very much, the other party's favorability when he sees him is [friendly], and the whole attribute is [1000/1000, friendly], which at least means that the other party will not lie in front of him.

"I heard this from a guest who is a famous wizard in the city, and what he said should not be false. Esmeda said.

Another wizard......

There are a lot of capable people in Koga City!

"What's your relationship with that wizard?" asked Sean casually, only to find Esmerda's disgruntled look.

"He's just a customer in our shop, and he's always in touch because he's bought a few things......"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just asking if that wizard is worth our trust. Hearing himself say this, the other party's emotions eased, and the state that appeared above his head also changed.

I can't see it, Luke's guy hardly talks about men and women on weekdays, but he didn't expect to be able to make a girl so obsessed with him, who has been away from Koga City for so many years and still thinks about him so much!

"That's ...... I'm not sure, but when I come to the shop on weekdays, he's very polite, and he likes to study all kinds of magic and alchemy, so he's also interested in industrial blacksmithing. Esmeida can only say that she knows part of it, as for the character, you can't see it just by looking at the appearance, and as a woman who has worked hard in business for many years, this feeling is even more profound.

"Lord Vigel is looking for him?"

"Hmm. Just a little bit about magic, can you tell me if he comes back next time?"

Sean is too eager to find a professional to ask about magic, otherwise he doesn't know when such aimless practice will be a head, and now that his magic proficiency has reached 60 points, I don't know how many are behind.

Is there a limit or is there no limit to growth?

If you continue to practice in the current situation, your magic proficiency will increase, and you will be able to use other bold magic, even the hydrogen bomb that Bahel used once before, but the power is far worse than his.

Including restrictions and grades...... There are so many things I don't understand, and it would be best if I could find a wizard to ask.

"Of course you can, Lord Vigel still has a knack for magic?"

"It's just a little curious, because there have been a few wizards in the town before, and they have helped us a lot. Sean didn't say anything deep, but when he saw the state of [doubt!] on the top of the other party's head, he also knew that she might have suspicions.

But for various reasons, Esmeida did not continue to ask, but instead asked herself about her next steps.

In fact, Sean has thought about various routes from last night to today, and there are different ways to choose until he enters the door just now, and now he has to choose one of them.

"I will stay in Koga City for the time being, if what you just said is true, the nobles from all over the south are concentrated in the city, then it will be meaningless for me to place Count Hamil again, but it is easy to be used as a spear by the big nobles......"

Sean thought that if they couldn't help each other, the appearance of his little nobleman would be an easy target.

Circling around a few big nobles, if you do well, you may be able to taste a little sweetness, and if you don't do well, you may even affect your own town. So the best way is not to appear in their sight, and simply continue to forget about yourself as a closed 'little village chief' in the mountains.

Esmerda agrees.

"But if you choose it right, you might be able to do a lot of good for you. ”

"It's like gambling, and in the end our life and death are still in the hands of others......

Esmeda's thoughts are probably the same as her original self, thinking that she can use her intelligence to mingle with several nobles for their own benefit.

But who is a fool in this world?

What you can think of can be thought of by others, although your special ability may be able to help some, but the final result is still in the hands of others, it is nothing more than choosing which finger to become.

"It's a good sign that the market for Telemian has been opened as Miss Hamil promised, and that the Mercenary Guild has been established...... At least until the next Earl's heir appears, we will be able to develop steadily, and I hope to use this period to find the direction of Telemien's development and accumulate some wealth, only by developing can I not fear the interference of other nobles. Sean said.

Perhaps from the moment he came into contact with the outside world, the town of Telemian has been inseparable from the outside world.

It's like the strategy games I played back then, starting out on a desert island alone, but when a diplomatic fleet sails into other areas, it means connecting with the outside world.

Now that the market and guilds have appeared in the town, can you still say no?

Even if these can be driven out, the hearts of the people in the town have been affected, and young people who have seen the prosperous world will inevitably 'look outside'.

And if the townsfolk who have tasted all kinds of food and fruits from the outside world want them to cut off again, it will be difficult!

Knowing that at this moment, Sean actually admired the wisdom of his ancestors......

Although it seems silly to be closed, it can retain the simple folk customs of nearly a hundred years.

In a way, it's remarkable.

However, Sean asked himself if he was not a person to stand with.

And the situation at that time also forced me to make such a choice...... Since you have chosen development, you have to bear the pressure.

"What do you think we should do next?" Esmaida did not call Sean by name this time, although she couldn't fully understand the words of the baron in front of her, but she faintly felt in her heart that the other party felt very unusual for her.

Perhaps, as rumored has it, the baron who led Telemien to break through centuries of isolation has a remarkable talent.

"I'll use your shop to establish a point of contact with the town, so you can communicate with each other about anything that happens on both sides...... Then ......"

Sean hadn't thought of this for the time being, and then did it.

The purpose of practicing magic and learning magic on your own is simple and clear, but you need to think carefully about developing a small town.

Night.

Sean originally planned to stay in a hotel near the store for the time being, but was invited directly by the two siblings to stay at the Skovey store, and had dinner with the two in the evening.

The elder sister Esmaida is more virtuous, not a lady of a noble family, and does almost everything herself, while the younger brother Claude is more powerful.

Since Sean got to know him, this little kid has been talking to him about guns, and has recommended himself many times to buy them or introduce them to other nobles to buy, and he really knows how to do business......

He had been curious about the fruit in the basket that Sean had brought, and he didn't dare to open it until the two of them got acquainted with it.

"It turns out that Pachira Go...... It's so rare, I heard from people buying fruit on the street that there have been a lot of rats in recent times, and many fruit farmers and butchers have been affected......"
