Chapter 54: Ok, you see this place? This’ll be your new home.
As though they were substituting for the elves who just went home, the merchants that Dant-san mentioned arrived.
T-there really is a village out here in the wasteland
The rumors were true
Whats that? That building
I greeted the bewildered merchants.
Nice to make your acquaintance. I am Luke Albert, the chief of this village.
Nice to make your acquaintance too. I am Brookley, the one to oversee this group. all things considered, you have quite the marvelous village here. To be frank, I myself was half in doubt until we arrived
Brookley-san was a man of small build in the middle of his 30s.
Not only was he part of the founding family of the Kane Company, one of the most distinguished companies in the North, he was also serving as the vice chairman of the said company even at such a young age. Yet such a person went to the trouble of going to our village
At any rate, the things they brought were mainly the goods we lacked. To name a few: clothes, seeds, medicinal herbs, and seasonings.
All we had to offer in exchange for such things though were just the crops we harvested. I intended to offer orc meat as well, but the villagers were vehemently pleading against it. I mean, I know you like orc meat, but I didnt know you love it that much.
And so, our crops were more important than ever.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
This is the first Ive seen a vegetable this big
Would you like to taste it?
May we?
I nodded and the merchants came closer.
No signs of pests. It looks appetizing as well.
If its only a matter of making them grow this big, Id say it isnt that hard. The real challenge is to grow them this big and have them be tasty too.
Also, it can be hollow inside for all we know.
In front of the vegetables that were several times larger than normal were the skeptical merchants.
They could have done this commission from the governor simply by delivering their goods and receiving ours, but the merchants still inspected each of the goods personally and carefully. I clearly felt their pride as merchants.
Its, its so delicious!?
What we received in the trade wasnt just goods.
Mooo
Meeehh
Bawk
Cows, goats, and chickens were also part of the deal.
Im so excited for their milk and their eggs.
Ok, you see this place? Thisll be your new home.
Through my Gift, I built an animal barn.
The moment the animals went in
Moo! Moo! Moo!
Meehh! Meehh!
Bawk! Bawk! Baaaawkkk!
Whats gotten to all of you??
Everyone suddenly became excited and started running around.
They say its because they entered the barn.
Ahh, youre
Yes, Im Neruru, the one with the Gift called [Heart of the Animals]!
Neruru was a girl one year older than me. Her Gift allowed her to understand the feelings of animals.
Is it alright if I leave these guys to you?
Certainly! Ill make sure theyll be able to breed so that we can get more milk and eggs from them!
