Chapter 46: Each home here has a bath

Chapter 46: Each home here has a bath

I met him only once before, but I was certain the boy in front of me was none other than Luke Albert-sama.

Welcome. I am Luke Albert, the chief of this village.

and I am the appointed governor of the North, Dant.

I introduced myself and knelt down.

I deeply apologize for not greeting you sooner.

I didnt even know he was sent here, so it was naturally impossible to greet him any sooner. Even so, for the sake of appearances, I decided to apologize to him.

Oh, its nothing. Please dont worry about it. More importantly, I hope you enjoy your stay here.

Luke-sama said so with a kind smile.

From then on, I was back on being surprised again and again.

First, there was the array of buildings that I have never seen before.

These buildings were tall and wide at the same time, and were cubic in shape.

They werent built with wood, but they didnt seem to be built with stone either.

According to Luke-sama, these buildings were the homes of the villagers.

Were calling them apartment buildings, by the way.

Apartment?

We continued going around.

I couldnt help but notice how clean the village was.

In frontier villages, it was often the case that no proper waste management system was in place. They typically just dig holes and throw their wastes there. Needless to say, the area around such pits reeked.

I hope so

More and more, I was regretting coming to such a crazy place.

I guided Dant-sans group and went around the village.

Ive shown them all that I should, right?

Yeah, I think that about covers it.

Ahm, Luke-sama, Im sorry to ask this again, butbut is this village really built just half a year ago?

Uh, yeah, it is. When I came here half a year ago, it was nothing but a wasteland.

Dant-san showed a face of disbelief.

Well, you see, its mostly thanks to my Gift [Village Building].

[Village Building]?

Yeah.

I then began to explain my Gift.

Because Selen has warned me to not mention my village skills and the fact that I could do more things as my village levels up, I omitted those points.

What an incredible GiftI see, so thats why Lord Albert sent you here?

No, I dont think so. I myself only found out what my Gift can do exactly when I got here.

I wonder what would have happened if I found out back then though? I think I could have prevented my banishmentbut then again, I like how things turned out. I enjoy my leisurely life here and I dont think Id want it any other way. yeah, like I thought way back then, Im not suited for this age of war.
