Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

"So, as long as you can guarantee your safety, go ahead if you want to. I'll be waiting for you here."

You didn't even say anything about going together?

"If it's a normal outing, of course I'll go."

"You are my favorite knight."

"But I know very well that I am a burden in the face of what is happening in Keyimu Town now."

"Rather than having to go together."

"I might as well wait for you here. The Eliza royal family... is a tolerant royal family that will delegate power to talented people."

"..."

She lifted a strand of snow-white hair from her cheek.

near.

Touch once.

Then he smiled brilliantly.

"go quickly."

"As a royal family, how can you know that your people are suffering and just want to escape?"

"But I really want to do this. This is completely... an idea that will make you think that I am not a good royal family at all, right?"

"Anyway."

"Just remember, it's not just the commoners who are suffering. There are also masters waiting here who are worried that the knight won't return."

"Then... finish what you want to do beautifully."

"..."

The only thing that matters is whether to remedy the situation or not.

No need to think now.

It’s really not that complicated.

Players.

If you want to do it, just do it.

If you don't want to go, just leave.

The only thing that matters is that you have no regrets. You have a clear conscience. It doesn't matter if it's Sese or something else.

3 month 20 day.

Cursed land.

This is the forest where Mu Xueer originally lived.

Due to the influx of a large number of refugees, the people of Keyimu Town were somewhat hesitant to clear all the forests in the cursed land at once.

Outsiders have no such awe at all.

Zeke said.

Since Su Ming asked them to come, he could allow them to stay, provided they built their own houses and reclaimed the wasteland.

The theories left by Su Ming include concepts such as how to make full use of refugees in the future... and so on.

Jike put all his knowledge into practice.

Let them be self-sufficient. Half of the leaders were from Keyimu Town, and half were their own people. No one objected to the people of Keyimu Town who equipped them with weapons and accepted them.

Herein lies the problem.

The reputation of the Cursed Land has a long history.

Before Zeke's father's generation, his reputation was already quite loud.

The most widely circulated rumor is that the original inhabitants of Keyimu Town were almost completely massacred a long time ago, and the current people in Keyimu Town are refugees who have gradually gathered together due to the war.

The natives said.

Because they had offended the demons by clearing the forest, the village was sacrificed.

But Jike had personally entered the cursed land and reclaimed it with his own hands, and nothing happened. He also followed Su Ming to the deepest part and saw many places in it that were perfect for growing crops and building houses as long as the trees were cut down.

In order to strengthen Keyimu Town, the inherent impression of the cursed land must be broken.

He has always done so.

In order to have their own houses and land, the refugees rushed into the forest. The remaining people who still wanted to stay in the cursed land could no longer bear it and wondered why outsiders could take their land.

Working hard.

According to the theory described by Su Ming, and with the help of today's carpenters and bricklayers, they can make improvements and build a better and deeper foundation, so that people can have toilets and bathing places in the house.

Weaponry.

Jike did what Su Ming said, secretly led people to fight in the burial sites near the town, and picked up a lot of them. And fortunately, after seeing it, one of the refugees immediately said that he could make it.

According to this situation.

Jike could easily imagine that Keyimu Town could become the origin of a new kingdom in the future, or even the capital.

But the good times didn't last long.

Just a few days ago.

Some refugees ran to a place not far from the Muchel Castle and dug the foundation. From underneath, they dug out something smelly. It was humanoid. Its white eyeballs could move.

People were frightened.

That was dug up during the day.

Jake just thought, what's the use of a demon that can't move? Monsters like the bishop were cremated.

Ignoring the opposition voices from the people of Keyimu Town.

Go and pull it up yourself and burn it before dark.

In fact, what most civilians say... is right, right?

Wait for Lord Plato to come back, wait for Her Highness Eliza to come back. That way, no matter what happens, I will have a clear mind.

If we really wait like that, we will not let the development of Keyimu Town stagnate. Let the refugees continue to dig the foundation... until new human figures are dug out at night in the deeper areas of the cursed land.

"Pfft-"

Completely different from daytime.

I didn't see it clearly.

The man's head had already flipped over, leaving behind a cloud of blood.

Several people were killed in succession.

Zeke raised a torch, took the lead with his men, and several more people died... before they were barely subdued.

But does that work?

The loosened soil revealed hands everywhere.

Keyimu Town, how many times can you exchange your life for another's?

"We're fucked."

"Why don't you wait for Master Plato to come back... Zeke, you are far from being able to take charge on your own!"

"It's all because of your self-righteous decision...Give me back my daughter!!!"

"..."

Since he brought the remaining people, they hid together in the notes left by Su Ming... under the cliff of the so-called refuge.

Zeke was scolded and looked at with resentment every day.

"Shut up!"

"Boss Zeke also wants us to get better! Besides, this is one of the things Master Plato told us to do!"

"Bullshit! Did Lord Plato tell you to keep acting recklessly when you encounter problems?!"

"Hasn't the last incident been enough of a lesson for us? Is it that difficult to wait for Master Plato to come back?"

"We shouldn't have touched this forest..."

"..."

Su, I did not say that you have to act on your own when encountering problems.

This matter is undoubtedly my own problem.

“I never thought of shirking my responsibility.”

"I'll take you out."

"After that, you can hang me on the railing or burn me at the stake, but I can remove me from the Toth family tree with just a frown."

“Or… among you, is there anyone who dares to say that he can stand up and kill me now, and find a way out for me?”

"..."

Such cold words made those sharp voices much quieter.

Jake is tired.

This is a major mistake.

He felt it for the first time.

The fact that I spent the first 30 years of my life as a dog was not groundless. Perhaps I had no talent at all.

He just relied on the theories provided by Plato and did some things that seemed very smart but were actually very stupid.

It's raining again.

What should I do?

If it were a sunny day, maybe there would be hope?

But it happened to be a rainy day that would last for who knows how long. If it continued like this, many people would starve to death. Even if the people of the Toss family could starve to death standing, it didn't mean that others could.

3 month 21 day.

Jake went out.

He only brought two trusted confidants with him who were quite skilled.

"Boss Zeke, we three can't bring back that much food."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"If you just want to leave here..."

“Shut up! This is not just the new Keyimu Town brought by Su, it is also the foundation of you, me, him, and everyone else! I promised Su… As long as I am here, Keyimu Town will be here.”

"..."

Anyone can talk big.

"Roar--"

But when facing a fast and ferocious monster.

Even if they managed to escape with some food, it would be far from enough to feed the hundreds of people hiding in the "shelter". It was like hitting a rock with an egg.

"Jick."

When they found another ration of food, they fled desperately.

I heard a sound behind me.

Jake turned around.

A weapon emitting a faint glow. A person with a bloody face appeared in sight.

"..."

Jike hasn't felt tears well up in his eyes in over 30 years.
