Chapter 151: The Beer Barrel Types

We were busy leading double lives in Volton and the Sanctuary. Today like most days we headed to the Sanctuary, when I had thought to go to the place the kids and the Cat Siths live, but a building I don’t remember was under construction. At the heart of the construction was the Dwarven blacksmith, Doganbo-san. But similar beer-barrel figures had increased by 3 people?

Was the foundation work completed by Gnome? He seemed like he was giving instructions to Doganbo-san and the other Dwarves like a site foreman. The building is a fairly large, simple warehouse-like structure.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

「Hey Gnome, what are you building?」

「Oh, Takumi? We have taken this plot. This area will be used for alcohol brewing.」

When I asked Gnome who was acting as the foreman, he said that they were constructing a building for making alcohol.

「Mm, well, that’s alright since I’ve heard about it vaguely, but why did the Dwarves increase?」

「Listen Takumi, don’t make light of the Dwarves. You see, Dwarves would suddenly appear out of nowhere and gather at the place where there is a possibility of making the best alcohol.」

What the hell, that’s scary. Maybe because I was thinking that, Gnome hurriedly made a follow up.

「Nay, be at ease. Strange fellows wouldn’t pass through the barrier of the Sanctuary.」

「I think those who come to savage lands in the western edge of the continent just for alcohol are plenty weird though.」

「What’re ya blabbin’ on about, alcohol is most important.」

「That’s right, Takumi, don’t you want to drink alcohol of potent spirits?」

Haa, the Dwarves’ love for drinking might be the influence of the spirits they worship. Even Salamander cut in.

「So, what alcohol are you making?」

「And so what you came up with was the Sanctuary?」

「Is it not allowed?」

With the Princess asking with upturned eyes, and a request from Sylph and Dryas, I didn’t think I could say anything but yes. In the first place, I thought that the masters of this Sanctuary are the Great Spirits, but for some reason, the Great Spirits have a conspicuous behavior of giving me the right to decide.

「Well, we’ll have them help with the orchard work. Let’s have the children consult the Dwarf and Cat Sith wives.」

「Thank you very much.」

The relieved Princess Mimir then grumbled about Yggurle Kingdom.

Yggurle Kingdom is the only Elven country, and many of the nobles from ancient times continue to be distinguished families. Furthermore, there were many pointlessly conceited elves who think themselves to be superior to other races. But there was a portion of the Elven nobility that has a tendency to look down on the poor despite being fellow Elves. Princess Mimir looked sorrowful as she explained. Even though she was revered as the Saint in her country, she was tormented by the feeling of powerlessness everyday.

「We will, to some extent, accept people in poverty as long as they are not criminals. Still, not too many.」

「Is that true?! Thank you very much. With this, we will be able to aid the children from crowded orphanages and the poverty-stricken widows caused by the war 50 years ago.」

Although they’re Fairykin, would it be fine if the number of people increase too much? I asked Undine, who just so happened to be near.

「I was just thinking of that too. Takumi, please build a church of the Genesis Faith in the center of the Sanctuary. We could tell Mimir to prepare a priest.」

「Will that be alright?」

「Yes, well then, a splendid church please.」

It seems I must build a splendid church. I wonder if I could get Doganbo-san to help.
