Chapter 521: Giving help

Chapter 521: Giving helpAfter finishing my discussion with Margrave Volton, his chamberlain, Xervus-san, asked for help.

「Regarding the bowling alley that the Papeck Company is constructing, a flood of inquiries have been coming from all sides...... But it’s only been made possible by the expansion of Volton City in the direction of the Savage Lands. I’ve explained this to them, but not many were convinced.」

「I’m sorry. I’ll help in any way I can.」

「Ohh! That would be appreciated!」Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

It seems that bowling itself was attracting attention even without knowing what it is. As to be expected, the bowling alley is relatively large building. If the booming Volton City did not expand, it would have been difficult to secure enough space to build in.

If a building of that scale is constructed, it was impossible for the neighboring nobles and companies that consider the Papeck Company as rivals to not pay attention to it, and it had caused Xervus-san to be a nervous wreck.

However, my cooperation might have been too hasty. Xervus-san suddenly grew lively.

「You’ve saved me. We need infrastructures in place preceding the popularization of the bicycles. Ahh, of course you will be rewarded for your help. It would be insignificant in comparison to the time that would be saved.」

「Haa......」

I’m a human heavy machinery.

Does Volton have a craftsman shortage with the expansion of the city into the Savage Lands? So, as the cause, i should help. It’s good that I’m getting paid. And that’s that.

Aside from that, the bike storage areas had to be locked. It wasn’t necessary if it’s in the Sanctuary, but here, they’re just asking to be stolen.

「Please have a look at this map. May we ask you to handle this open lot in this market, dismantle that empty store in that commerce district, and lastly, a large area next to the carriage parking at the bowling alley?」

「......I understand.」

Sebastian returned to the mansion, so Sophia and I were being given the rundown of what we’re going to be doing by Xervus-san in the carriage.

If it’s only three areas, I should be able to finish it fast.

「Here please.」

「......the grass is endless.」

「Yes.」

I needed start with a demolition of a store that was vacated because bankruptcy. Sophia and I wouldn’t even need a minute to physically demolish it, but it would be bad if we damaged the surrounding shops, so I was disassembling it using alchemy.

After I had used 『Decomposition』 on it, I collected the wood and stone and used on the building and stowed them away, I prepared the soil and hardened it, then transmuted bike parking racks just like the ones in the vacant lot in the market.

「Thank you for your hard work, Iruma-sama. The last location is a large establishment, as such, please make it slightly larger.」

「......okay.」

And finally, the carriage arrived at the nearly complete building in the newly expanded land in the direction of the Savage Lands, the bowling alley.

「This will be the carriage parking. Therefore, please do it in the space over on that side.」

「......I understand.」

The carriage parking had been neatly levelled, but the area that Xervus-san had pointed towards was wilderness.

「Please do your best,.」

「Yup, I’m okay, Sophia.」

Encouraged by Sophia, I flattened the ground and hardened it in one go. I continued by transmuted the bike parking racks, and Xervus-san approached me, smiling and clapping.

「As expected, Iruma-dono. I will take you back to your estate, please board the carriage. Your reward will be sent to you at a later time.」

「......yes, I understand.」

Was this something that only I could do? Well, it’s too late to think about it now.
