Chapter 652

Episode 652 Event (1)

Shouts like a howling storm erupt from all directions, something I had never heard even on the day of the triumphal ceremony.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaa—!!!”

…How many people are there?

No matter where you look, north, south, east or west, there are only people, people, and people. Perhaps because of this, the Barbarians also seem to have put too much strength into their shoulders and lats.

‘I didn’t know it would be this big of an event…’

I heard from the Marquis that the scale would be much larger, but when I came here and saw it with my own eyes and felt it with my own skin, the level of reality was different.

‘It’s no joke.’

A chaotic international situation and an uncertain future.

Is it because it was a fun event that occurred in the meantime?

The extensive publicity of the Marquis may have played a role, but I think the combination of these factors made this event a great success.

Well, the event itself is interesting.

Isn’t he like that too?

The country will be interested in the news that those noble noble families will compete with each other based on their construction skills.

“handsome!! Bjorn Jandel…!!”

“Aaaahhh!”

Still, I didn’t expect there to be such a festive atmosphere, so I felt a little awkward.

Well, I have no intention of staying stiff like a tree and moving on.

“The character casted [Transcendence].”

“The character casted [Giant].”

So that it can be clearly seen even from far away spectator stands.

He inflates his body to its fullest size and shouts with all his might.

“Behel—laaaaaaaaa—!!!!”

A roar that covers the entire stage, breaking through the noise of 10,000 spectators.

As expected, the response was explosive.

“Waaaaaaaaaaaa—!!!”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

“It’s a giant!!”

Enthusiastic cheers echoed back.

“The character’s reputation has increased by +1.”

“The character’s reputation has increased by +1.”

“The character’s reputation has increased by +1.”

“The character’s reputation increases by +1…”

「······.」

Hmm, maybe this will increase your reputation a little more?

It’s hard to know because you can’t read the system log, but it doesn’t matter even if your reputation doesn’t increase.

Since he’s become a clown, it’s not a bad idea to definitely provide fan service.

Aren’t these difficult times for everyone?

There should be some joy like this.

“Now then, with this, all of Baron Yandel’s technicians have entered!”

Soon, the technicians and I stood in a prepared spot, and the emcee naturally began to conduct the event.

A brief introduction to the five families, the purpose of this contest, and even how this contest is conducted.

‘Please, come out with something easy….’

After the brief explanation, we went straight into the lottery.

The test topic for this contest was to be decided by each Daseok family by drawing lots….

“The first box is filled with balls with the number of floors of the building to be built today, but what will the result be…!”

Unfortunately, the number on the ball drawn by Viscount Chiembrotta, who was first in line, was 4.

“4th floor! In today’s contest, the number of floors of the building that engineers must build is 4 floors. “It was a very difficult setting right from the start!”

Considering that the 5th floor was the maximum, it was as if it had the characteristics of a 4-star rating…

“The second box contains the main materials for the building that needs to be built today.”

Stone buildings and wooden buildings. Broadly speaking, there are only these two, but if you go into details, there are surprisingly many materials.

Bricks, synthetic clay, logs, wooden planks, etc….

“It’s Ganghwaseok!”

“her…!”

Soon, as soon as the materials were decided, the sound of singing came from all over the place. After all, reinforced stone is the most difficult material to handle.

First of all, it is difficult to physically handle because it is heavy and difficult to process.

but….

‘Is this a good thing for us?’

It would have been even more difficult if something like synthetic mud, a building material unique to this world that had properties similar to cement, had been discovered.

Because barbarians can’t do such delicate work.

Anyway, the lottery proceeded quickly after that and the exam topic was completely decided.

A four-story building made of reinforced stone.

“The ball from the third box is… 8!”

The minimum number of glass windows per floor is 8….

“Residential building! “It’s a residential building!”

The use of the building is residential, not commercial.

and….

“The ball that Baron Yandel will draw has the artistic theme of the building to be built from now on written on it. For reference, among the merits, the characteristics that will be the main criteria in the evaluation, such as nobility, softness, and intimidation, are written down… Ah! “The ball is out now!”

The theme of the building is…

“happiness! “I’m happy!”

…write it.

For some reason, the topic that was the most distant from me came up.

***

The total construction period given for this contest was 3 days.

Considering that there is a 4-story building at stake, it is a very tight schedule, but…

‘Rather, it has to be at that level to be evaluated.’

Since everyone is a professional, if you give them enough time, they will all build a complete building.

So in the end, it just becomes a place to evaluate art.

‘What’s important is how realistic the building can be built in a short period of time…’

“Let’s sell the land first! “If it’s a four-story building, you have to start with foundation work first!”

As soon as the contest started, the warriors started digging the ground and then gathered with the technicians for a brief discussion.

“I think we can do this by slightly modifying the drawing I prepared. What do you think?”

“I think it would be better to use this drawing as a basis instead.”

“Isn’t the theme happiness? Even if we reduce the number of rooms, wouldn’t it be better to expand the size of the rooms?”

Quick discussions about exam content.

This is what I felt as I listened quietly to the side, and everyone was engrossed in the topic of ‘happiness.’

“Do you think you’ll be happy just because it’s spacious? “You have to give off a comfortable atmosphere!”

“Well, wouldn’t it be better to create a space structure so wonderful that everyone would envy it?”

“kid! “Let’s decorate the child’s room.”

The happiness that people feel is different.

Therefore, I felt that my worries were pointless.

‘It’s an art score in the first place, right?’

In my view, it ultimately comes down to interpretation.

Why isn’t there something like that? The most important ability in modern art is persuasion.

And in that sense.

“How about this structure?”

“…yes? “Isn’t this far from happiness for anyone?”

When I propose a new structure, the engineers tilt their heads.

However, when I explained why I chose this structure and explained my artistic interpretation, everyone looked shocked.

Even though it sounded like sophistry, I was able to understand it to some extent.

“Sure… even if you don’t get art points, it will be highly regarded if you do it that way.”

“In the first place, the purpose of this contest was not to build a nice building.”

“Besides, I heard that the audience’s evaluation is also included on the last day… Maybe I can get a high score then.”

In any case, is it because I am the one in charge of this contest?

When I argued more strongly, the technicians looked as if they were wondering if this was true, but followed the decision itself.

“…Then, will you make the final decision to follow this blueprint?”

“Yes, I like it very much.”

After discussing for about an hour and completing the blueprint, the basic work of digging the ground was completed.

“Warriors, carry the materials first!”

“We must be working on a sewer system!”

“It’s for a competition, so the structure is simple, so it will be over quickly!”

Afterwards, dwarf engineers began sewer construction, and during that time, barbarians carried materials without stopping.

Passionately, as if competing.

“You’re carrying two of those big things at once…?”

“there! “He’s holding three!”

“They’re running there at all…?”

“oh! excuse me! Four! Some people carry four… Ah! “I threw it all away…”

Was he excited by the attention he was getting from the crowd for the first time?

Because I overexerted myself, there was a constant crashing sound, but this was roughly expected.

I had no intention of pointing out anything in particular.

Anyway, it won’t be like that for a while.

As construction began in earnest, the crowd, which had been as large as a swarm of bees, was shrinking at a noticeably fast pace.

“You said you revealed the completed building in the article, right?”

“I guess I’ll have to come back then.”

No matter whether it’s a noble race, a contest, or anything else, in the end it’s all about construction.

“Oh! “There are fewer people!”

“Is it because we can’t do it?”

“five things! This time I will try five…!! So don’t go and keep watching!!”

They were warriors who went overboard even more to keep the crowd going, but when the entertainment ran out, most of the spectators who had enjoyed themselves enough turned away without hesitation.

“Ah, ah… mo, everyone has left…!”

“I-I am not qualified to be a warrior…!”

Huh, why are they suddenly like this again?

Since the warriors had drastically lost their motivation, I had no choice but to intervene in the situation.

“It’s normal for everything to be gone by now, so don’t worry! From the beginning, it was decided that the second and third days would be held privately!”

“Oh, so you mean you didn’t leave because we didn’t like it?!”

“Of course! So work hard! When we show the completed building on the morning of the 4th day, there will be a full crowd again! Are you going to disappoint them?”

“No!”

“Behel—laaaaa!!”

Okay, then that’s enough for mental care…

From then on, while watching other families’ construction, I immediately gave advice and waited nearby if there was anything to provide feedback on our construction.

But what is this again?

“This is the first time in my life that I have seen a barbarian doing construction work.”

“I don’t know if it will collapse on the last day.”

Workers from other families can be seen whispering in unseen places. Their eyes were full of deep contempt and prejudice toward barbarians. Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Four!! “I succeeded in lifting four at the same time!!”

Fortunately, our barbarians didn’t seem to hear because they were so absorbed in their own work…

“Tsk, architecture isn’t just work done with force.”

“Haha, it’s because I couldn’t learn, so don’t say too much. Aren’t they pitiful when you get to know them? “There is no way to make money within the tribe, so I came out here like this.”

As I listen, the level of speech gradually increases.

However, rather than being angry, I just didn’t understand.

‘I don’t know what these bare-bones people believe and do.’

If the young warriors hear this and throw away their shovel handles, then what are they going to do?

Are you actually hiding something like power?

If you look at the materials being carried, it doesn’t seem like that…

“Keuhum!”

As soon as I cleared my throat, the workers who were chatting behind my back were shocked when they saw me and returned to their seats. Afterwards, I was worried that an accident might occur, so I stood guard to prevent other workers from coming near.

And time passes so quickly…

One day, two days, three days.

“It’s over. “There was a message from the Marquis that no one should touch it anymore until the review takes place tomorrow, and that if any irregularities are discovered, they will be immediately disqualified.”

The construction ends exactly at midnight on the third day, and the workers who have completed their arduous schedule are spread out on the floor.

Our warriors were no different.

They worked hard for three days without much sleep, and achieved results worthy of their efforts.

“But… it’s late now, but I wonder if it’s really okay to do this.”

“Isn’t this the Baron’s order? “Let us stop thinking.”

Well, the dwarven engineers still have a very calm face.

anyway.

Ssaaaaaa-

The sound of strong wind and drizzle of rain soaks the dust-filled construction site.

“Thank you all for your hard work! “First of all, it looks like we won for sure!”

“I had no idea that such a low-class building would come out in such a big contest…”

“haha! “Isn’t that what they did best?”

I did not offer any rebuttal to the workers from other families who ridiculed the building that contained the efforts of our warriors.

Before the storm.

The results will tell whether they are right or we are right.
