63-63. The work of the saint

After that I continued to give alms.

In the blink of an eye, word about me spread throughout the city.

The less fortunate people in the city began to gather to me.

By that time, my name will already be established by Saint Lady, and I will be known as Saint Lady.

Still, I was able to eliminate people's hunger with purple water at all.

Well, I had a hard time making water all the time in those days.

Now you don't have to do it, right?

Actually, the more I used the skill, the more I found out how to use it efficiently.

If you use 【Rainbow-colored Divine Water】 normally, seven will come out at the same time, but it's possible to take out only one.

If you put out only one of them, the amount of water that comes out is ten times as much as when you put out seven, and the speed of the water increases. Somehow it's more economical than putting out seven at the same time.

Thanks to this, if you do it for a week or so, you'll be able to produce enough water for three months.

And it's not like we have to do it all the time now, because the poor people are now able to live without relying on purple water compared to before.

Well, so, as my visibility increases, of course, the story doesn't flow to all the good people.

The information gets passed on to the bad people, and I become a target.

The purple water I put out is worth more than I can imagine.

It is like treasure water that can generate huge profits for merchants. I can't sell it to people who have no money at the moment and are starving, but even those who have money can't say that there is no possibility that they will starve sooner or later, so it's something we want. There is a demand for it among the nobility. It works no better as food for soldiers in times of war.

Even so, if it was only purple water, they might not have been so eagerly targeted yet, but when the information was circulated that there was red water that could raise the level, I think they became a full-fledged target.

I can't even imagine at that point how much water that easily raises a level would be worth anymore. It's because a glass of water will raise your level to the limit level. Considering that it's inherently bloody hard work to raise your level to the limit level, it's worth a lot to say that you won't need that effort.

I became a target anyway, and I almost got kidnapped once. I managed to escape at that time, but I knew it was not safe to do so, so I decided to find someone else to protect me.

Fortunately, at that time, there were many people who loved me.

When those people find out that I am about to be kidnapped, they are angry and offer to escort me back to them.

There are few poor people who are at a high marginal level, and it is very dangerous to be an escort. However, some of them were high. There were people who had a high limit level but were suffering from a disease that made it difficult for them to raise their levels, and people whose levels had been eaten by a demon called the Level Eater, and their levels had dropped to single digits. It is said that it is difficult to raise your level when you are young, so if you are 40 years old, there is nothing you can do to lower your level.

But even such people could raise their level with my red water.

Anyway, there were about 100 people who had a high marginal level but were poor because of their circumstances. Those people started to take the lead in escorting me.

That makes it harder to carelessly touch them. Not only were they at a higher level, but they all had water that strengthened their abilities, making them even stronger than they were.

Then I would negotiate with the great people in town.

I would negotiate to sell the water I made.

The idea was to get a lot of money from it and enrich the poor people.

The negotiations were easy to carry out.

The price was more than what he bought from me, and it looked like he was making a lot of money selling water to other countries, so he could have made a little bit more, but he would get a lot of money from it anyway.

I made that money to build an orphanage and bless them with food so that they could have a decent meal other than the tasteless purple water.

Didn't you have any luxuries of your own?

Hmmm, it's a luxury to have a house like this built for me.

But I don't spend that much money, because I read a book once in a while and that's enough for me. Issa likes to eat, though, so I do spend some money.

Also, I've started fighting off the demons that appear around the town. The number of guards gradually increased, and some people besides the poorest of the poor began to want to be my guards. I think it was like an army now. I can't command, though, so I leave the commanding to those who can.

There are a lot of high-level people here, so it's easy to defeat the monsters.

With the creation of the army, I've become alienated from the high and mighty people in town. Or is it correct to say that I was feared? In fact, I'm strong enough to be the ruler of this town if I wanted to.

But I don't want to be the ruler, so I won't go that far.

It's just, well, it's just a matter of flickering it around to make them drink the demands that are inconvenient for the great man. You can't help the poor unless you do that much, so I can't help it.

Let's see, this is my life in the other world.

It was hard times, but there were also a lot of fun times.

Sometimes I want to go back to Japan, but right now I'm trying my best to do what I can do in this world.
