105 Chapter 6-4 Demolition work

"Look, why don't you cut in a little deeper there! Why don't you peel the scales first!

Under Grandpa's instructions, the knights go ahead with their work without hissing.

The work has started an hour ago, but it has still not reached 20% of the entire itinerary.

But it was helpful that Grandpa knew how to dismantle the dragon.

He remembered it quite a while ago when he hunted junior dragons. He was also a ground dragon at that time, and because he didn't know how to do it, he dismantled it in a half-examined state, which caused much of the material to go bad.

This time, they're using their experience to try not to damage the material.

"With that said, it's been about two hundred years since the royal family was involved in the demolition of dragons."

Teeda seemed to have looked into the dragon in the library and had interesting stories.

For example, it seems that the meat of the dragon is delicious, but it is quite stiff, and if it is not softened in some way, it is literally toothless, or the last time I hunted the dragon, the central figure was the second prince at the time, and he had the same dark hair and black eyes as me, and at birth the queen made a noise that she cheated, or the scales of the dragon could be melted and processed like metal, or something...

"Phew, is it the same as metal..."

I got some good information inside. I was just thinking about updating my current leather armor, so I might be as luxurious as I want at this time.

"I knew I was out -!

"Hurry up and take it with you!

"Don't forget to put it in your magic bag!

At that time, a group that was dismantling the Wyburn subspecies, a short distance from the ground dragon, became noisy.

Looking at you, he seemed to have just cut open the stomach of the Wyburn subspecies, with a melted human upper body coming out of them.

"Tamer... that's gross"

"Ugh..."

Teeda seemed to have never seen a body like that (...), holding her mouth by her hand.

"Tenma, come!

Jean, who was directing the demolition of the Wyburn subspecies, is calling me while holding Tamer's bag.

"Is there something wrong?

"Hey, do you think you can still use this bag?

The two bags offered by Mr. Jean were melted and perforated everywhere, and it seemed difficult to repair them, but they did not appear to be completely broken, so the contents could be changed.

"It looks fine. Bring me some replacement bags. Anything about the same size."

A nearby knight brought a bag to my order.

I receive the bag and use Grant Magic to create a simple magic bag.

Connect it to a broken bag and let it share the space. All you have to do is open a new bag and retrieve the contents.

"How did you do that! This!"

Jean is surprised, but by reason, it's an easy one. The point is, I just made a new opening and mounted it on a bag that I couldn't open anymore.

Explaining that, Mr. Jean was impressed with whether it was like that, but when asked later by Grandpa, he said this was a new technology, and cautioned to remain silent because when this technology spread it would certainly be misused.

I checked Tamer's magic bag for the tournament like that, but I couldn't find anything particularly suspicious.

However, from Tamer's personal belongings, which were kept by the attendant, which were examined using the same method, various shitty objects emerged, and Jean and the others were pulling lightly.

First and foremost were the poisonous substances, which were stored in objects with strong killing power, to weak objects, to objects with immediate or delayed effects, and even to objects for demons and animals, to potent ecstasy and horticultural drugs.

The next most common was the weapon category, and this one even came out with what appeared to be torture.

Later, with what appeared to be stolen goods and foodstuffs, Ms. Jean, who confirmed these, temporarily interrupted the dismantling and headed for the preparation of the report and the interrogation of the remaining members.

"Excuse me, Mr. Tenma. We'll have to dismantle it later."

Tida bows her head instead of Mr. Jean, but I didn't care because I seemed to be able to dismantle even one of my own with regard to the Wyburn subspecies.

"Mr. Tenma, the ground dragon just takes out his guts and finishes sorting, and skins the rest"

After about three hours without Jean and the others, he finally came to peel the skin off the dragon.

Once we get here, we can use magic to move forward crisply.

"Well, I guess I'll just take a break."

Tida told everyone what I suggested.

"No, this is quite a bone."

Grandpa comes closer as he turns his shoulder, but doesn't look as tired as he says with his mouth.

"Hold on, this guy's a pretty big guy. It's bigger than the one I took down. It's not proof of that, but look, look at this."

Grandpa took it out because it had a diameter of 40 cm or more. As a result, the Wyburn subspecies were about 20 cm in size.

"That would be worth more than 10 million Gs. If I put it up for auction, I'd lightly double it."

"It's worth a lot... but I'm not going to sell it, and I don't have a use for it at the moment... I guess I'll let it die in my bag until it turns up"

Talking to Grandpa, for example, Teeda came interrupting like she said she was afraid.

"Um ~ Tenma. I've been wanting to hear from you for quite some time now...... what is that cow over there with Shiloumal?

Teeda pointed to three white-haired buffaloes, eating grass behind the sillowmall.

"Oh yeah, I was wondering, too. Are you going to eat that?

Grandpa seemed to be concerned, and if he was going to eat, I would help him snort, but I told him I didn't mean to.

"If I helped, they missed me. That's why I brought them here. Thought I'd keep it at home."

I'm surprised at what I said, Teeda.

"Right, okay. You can use a backyard or something that you don't use for the breeding area, and if you ask around Martha, she'll show you how to take care of it."

Tida was surprised even at her grandfather, who had agreed to it so lightly... wouldn't it be surprising if she said a total of three calves in two 1t-over cows, as if they had dogs and cats?

"The problem is bait, but what are we going to do about it?

"I don't have a problem with that. Basically, I think if you mow the grass together in the meadow, save it in a bag, and buy out some extra cheaper grain or something, you should be able to collect it in exchange for cow's milk, grandpa."

White-haired buffaloes look something like Holstein. Well, the white-haired buffalo is considerably bigger.

For this reason, I thought I might be able to take milk, so I tried my first milk squeeze in my life, but this was amazing.

Whatever, the milk came out lightly at 30L. When I tried it, it was quite rich and tasty milk, so I store it in my bag.

"White-haired buffalo milk comes from luxury products. I can't get it because I can't tame it. Meat is even more luxurious."

Rest assured. There's meat too! Grandpa was quite happy when he took the meat out and showed it like that.

I had teada too. I did, so when I said I'd split it it up when I dismantled it, I was happy with this one.

"So, Mr. Tenma. What are the names of those cows?

I was asked, so I announced the name I had been thinking about beforehand.

"That taurus is" jubeye, "the cow is" hilo, "and the calf is" balls. "

This came from "One-Eyed Buffalo (Willow Raw)" where the Taurus was Juubeye, and from the Juubeye connection, the calf (female) had balls (Galasha), and then the mother was named Hiro.

However, his mother's name was lost in Hiro or Ter, but in the end he decided to Hiro.

"Well, that's a different name, isn't it?"

"Yeah, you're changing."

Again, there seems to be some discomfort between the two of us when it's a Japanese-style name, but there's no choice but to name it. Get used to it.

The introduction of the white-haired buffaloes came to a relaxing place, Master Maria.

"Teeda, Tenma. How's it going?

Maria joined the break, and the four of us continued our conversation. Looking in the direction of Maria's arrival, Lady Lyle is still sitting in the front seat.

As a royalty, as the head of the military, Maria said something horrible like, "Because it's the usual."

"So, what part of the dragon can you sell?

I was asked, so I told her that I had spoken with Master Lyle in general, and I decided to leave it officially in the documents.

The area to sell to the royal family is one eyeball from the ground dragon, the majority of the gut except the heart, a few bones, dozens of kg of meat, from the Wyburn subspecies, both eyeballs, the majority of the gut except the heart, half the skin, half the scales, nails and fangs, half the meat.

They will take more than they originally planned, but they want to color the right price and give Jin and the others a little more than they originally planned.

Again, Master Lyle doesn't seem to reach Maria's feet in such a rush.

"So it's a reward... you don't need a title, do you?

"I don't want to!

Tida was quite surprised when I put a quick no to Maria's words.

"Well, I thought you'd say that... but I'll tell you for once, in the case of the title, I'm even thinking of the Count, right?

"Still not going"

Maria seemed to know I would say no, but Tida seemed uncomfortable.

"Why, Mr. Tenma? I think it's probably the first time in history that you're 15 years old and you're going from civilian to earl?

Teeda's words are the most, but that's in the case of normal people.

Honestly, I don't think the title is that good for me right now. I have never been in a special position before (including in my previous life), so I don't care, and I think I have a better life than the nobles there.

Besides, I don't have a problem with money, so I can do whatever I want and live.

When it becomes aristocratic, you have to do the corresponding (tedious) work, such as managing territory and calculating tax revenues, and even if you receive an honorary lord who doesn't have territory, you get caught up in troubles between aristocrats.

Besides, in my case, when I get the title, I will have to form a ministerial group from scratch, and I will have to sort them out, so the pros and cons will only increase.

Yes, I told Teeda, Teeda looked complicated, but on the other hand, Maria was laughing funny.

"Though the blood isn't connected, you're the son of Boulder Sealia and Ricardo. You look just like me!

Maria, with a laugh, began to talk to me and Tida in a delightful way.

"Actually, Ricardo refused to be listed as a nobleman, the same way. Says Seelia has the same opinion."

It's the first time I've heard of it from Maria, but the truth is that her father and mother were originally aristocrats.

He said his father was the son of the Knight Sir, the lowest throne, and his mother was the Viscount's niece.

Well, when I think about it, my mother said it was Maria's childhood, and my father said she was a classmate at the same school as the king, so it's a strange story that at least one of them is not noble.

I just tried to ask Maria why those two were in Kukri Village...

"That would be better if Lady Merlin spoke than I did. Isn't that right, Master Merlin?"

So I spoke to my grandfather, who had come right behind me at some point.

"Damn, why would I teach you that? I don't even want to remind you."

"If Tenma was a normal kid, I wouldn't have talked to her either. But it's going to be tough like this, for sure."

Grandpa also sat in the chair sighing at Maria's compelling smile.

"That's true too... Shall we start with Ricardo? Even so, it's not a big deal, because Ricardo's mother dealt with the aristocrats and Ricardo was born. Ricardo lived in the village of Kukri as a child, but the father of the Knight Sir, who had no trace, was called to King's Capital to raise him. And Ricardo goes to King's Capital school, but a few years later his father lost his leg and lost his title. At that time, Ricardo might have left school, but he was good enough to stay a privileged student."

They knew the Kings then. For this reason, the secondary school is the equivalent of the secondary school of the previous life.

"The problem is not with Shelia's home. Even though she is a relative of mine, she was originally the daughter of my brother in the Viscount family, my brother's daughter. I was born after I left home."

Grandpa was born as the third son of one of the Viscounts, and his mother was said to have been born as the eldest daughter of the second son of the Viscounts.

He said his grandfather and mother's father were close in age and were close, but they didn't go against his grandfather's brother (eldest son).

That caused Grandpa to leave the house before he could grow up and become independent as a civilian (...). It's rare to leave home before adulthood, but fortunately, Grandpa had a magical talent, so he didn't have a problem.

But my mother's father... my grandfather was different. He said he was not allowed to leave the house because he had no magical talent and said he was his second son.

After that, she was married and her mother was born, but her eldest son also gave birth to a boy who would be a trail, making her independent as a knight.

Immediately after independence, they struggled quite a bit financially. But the eldest son, he said, did not provide any support or anything.

By the time Grandpa was made independent, he had already made a name for himself as a fairly famous adventurer and took considerable care of him financially.

Thanks to this, my mother was able to attend school and became friends with Maria (hence the elementary school… places like elementary school). At that time, Maria was the king's wife, so she later became acquainted with the king.

Because of that relationship, my mother met my father and got to go out with him. Even as a grandfather, he said that his father was drawing noble blood and that his grades at school were good, so he was going to welcome him as his son-in-law.

With that in mind, Grandpa admitted that his father and mother would go out with him and that it was a good experience to act as adventurers, he said.

But it seems that the eldest son, whom the king mistakenly thought the king cared about his mother for (...) being close to him as his mother and friend's lover, put all sorts of pressure on his grandfather to turn his mother into the king's sideroom.

Because of that, Grandpa said his body wasn't originally sturdy, but he was exposed to severe stress and got sick.

Worst of all, the eldest son accused his grandfather of not being able to perform all his noble duties and tried to adopt his mother as his own.

Just then, the mothers had returned to Wang Capital to compete in the martial arts tournament, and when they found out about the story, the mother and father protested to the eldest son, but the eldest son did not listen, and even involved his faction boss to try to move forward with the plan.

The king (then the Crown Prince) also tried to protest, but Mr. Cliff, who came up with a measure, said he stopped.

And when they heard about Mr. Cliff's measures, the mothers competed in the tournament and won every one of them.

He said this when he told the king at the time that he would reward him for winning.

"" We don't need a reward, so let us acknowledge our marriage and cut off from our parents ""

He said this was the measure Mr. Cliff had in mind. Normally, it doesn't seem strange that there would be punishment as a crime of disrespect, but there, to the then king and some leading aristocrats (royalists), the Crown Prince (the current king) had taken root beforehand, so the request was admitted so much that the two married and moved to the village of Kukri, where his father was born.

Conversely, the eldest son was forced to replace him for causing unnecessary noise.

Shortly after the replacement of his eldest son happened, Grandpa said he had just died of hard work.

"Besides, due to poor quality, my eldest son (Sealia's cousin) is still in Viscount status... he may harass me with resentment"

"So one of the countermeasures was to count Tenma."

She said Maria was obsessed with my title because of that reason. Well, that won't be all.

"By the way, come on... can I kill that former Viscount?

To my straight speech, don't pull, Teeda.

"No, I don't think so."

"Well, that's not good."

"That's right! Mr. Tenma!"

Teeda has a soothing look at what the two of you disagreed with, but...

"It's too early to kill! Not until we see how things are going!

"Well, we have to plan carefully so that we can never get away with it!

More Don't Pull Teeda. In particular, it seems most surprising that Maria has made a statement to condone the killing.

"Tida, do you understand? Sometimes nobles have to take people's lives. Trouble, huh?"

"No, Mr. Tenma isn't noble... besides, isn't Mr. Tenma the cause!

Teeda with a tired look.

To Tida, the adult black joke seemed too early.

That, half of it was serious. Half of it was a play conversation going on, overtaking breaks if you noticed.

"If it's not time to start again, don't let the sun go down"

"Yeah, shall we get started, Mr. Tenma?"

The condition of the dragon now is that it contains cuts for peeling. So first I drop the head and tip of my hands and feet that get in the way.

This is my role.

"Oops..."

Firstly, manipulate the giganto to secure the ground dragon. And along the cleavage just below his head, he cut the meat open with a knife.

As you cut it around your neck, the bone remains at the end. It's just hard to cut a bone, so I put a knife tip on a nearby joint to help.

"" "Ooh!" "

The earthly dragon's neck is cut off more easily than I thought and cheers from the knights I was watching around.

After that, he cut off the tip of his hands and feet, following the same procedure as his neck.

"This is good, all the time"

Put the knife and the giganto back in, and I'll make sure Gin and the others get their share first.

The knights use their magic on the knife for demolition to sharpen it and separate it along the border between the skin and the flesh of the ground dragon.

Occasionally inexperienced knights have made mistakes and cut their fingers or not let the meat peel clean, but generally the work went without problems.

And roughly two hours later, the entire itinerary of the work ended.

The time it took was roughly seven hours, mobilizing more than twenty knights, and the ground dragon turned into material.

"That's it!

Teeda is just excited that the work is done, but it is the work of the knights that is done (...).

"Teeda, your work is not done yet."

"What?"

Tida tilting her neck at Maria's words.

"That's right. Now we still have the task of negotiating the price (...) of the material to trade with the royal family. The person responsible for this one is Teeda... be gentle."

I said it deliberately with a smile towards Tida.

Teeda, who looked at me and blued her face, saw Maria nearby, but Maria ignored Teeda.

Anyway, it was Maria who told me to do these acts (...). So to speak, that's a mastermind.

This is nothing like saying, "You can take money from Teeda." It's just saying, "Let Teeda go through these deals, so to speak, Maria's kindness."

"Okay. What is it here, so are you sure you want to negotiate in my room?

Now that I know I can't count on Maria's backup, Tida tries to discuss it in her room, but I turned it down.

"No, we'll do it here anyway. The knights who took part in the demolition will also wonder how much value will be attached to the material of the ground dragon they dismantled."

Tida gave me the choice of place, so I didn't hesitate to say no and suggested we do it on the spot the knights were watching. Even the most suggestive is that Tida has no choice right now. Whatever, the knights are already looking at Tida with anticipation.

Teeda, who lost sight of the knights around her, responded to the negotiations here. This prevents Teeda from getting a bad price for the material.

Because if they are poorly priced, 'successive generations of kings have put a price on their jobs' and so on.

There is no indication that Tida noticed the incident at the moment, but Maria's eyes are getting a little rough.

"First, let's go from the dragon. One eyeball, guts except the heart, a few bones, and dozens of kg of meat would definitely accommodate you here?

"No, I have a change in my gut. I'll take one lung, liver, gallbladder, and stomach. Instead, let's sell 200 kg of meat"

Demand in the gut system is what I just said. I told Maria I would sell them, but it's one hand to try and stick with Tida if she's the other.

"Yeah, I don't mind that, but can I get you that much more meat?

"Oh, we still have a lot of meat. I'd like to consume you if I could."

"Okay."

Teeda did exactly what I thought. Honestly, compared to the value of the gut, meat would be something other than that.

Whatever, meat can only be treated (...) as edible, but the gut can also be a material, medicine, and of course it can be consumed.

Teeda is simply delighted that the amount of meat has increased, but she has not noticed that Maria's expression has become more rude behind her.

"So that's the price... but what's the deal with the dragons in the past?

In response to my question, Teeda began to take out and answer the materials she had been working on beforehand.

"In past deals, there are a total of five that remain as material. The first case was head, heart, scales, nails, meat 200 years ago, and the second case was eyeballs and all guts 150 years ago, plus bones and meat on scales. The third case was 120 years ago and only meat. The fourth case was eighty years ago, everything except meat. The last was Merlin's defeated individual forty years ago, and he's buying everything away at this time. However, they were in pretty bad shape, so it's not very helpful"

Besides, the price is quite different now, so it can only be used for reference.

It wasn't very useful, but still, it seems it was a positive assessment for Maria that Tida was making the materials in advance, and she's smiling back just a little bit.

"If that's the case, shall we go with the price individually? That's an eyeball first. How about this for a million G's?

"Eh... yes, that's fine for the price"

I said it in a bit of a blow, but Tida nodded lightly.

"What about the guts... for $800,000?

"It would be helpful if you could make it a little cheaper"

"Well, how about 700,000?"

"Thank you"

The story progresses with a great deal of clapping. As the story progresses, so does Maria's expression.

Later, Tida decided to preach.

Such a future was the expression I could see as if I were in my hands.
