The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor Chapter 31.9

Chapter 9) Embinyu Church's Suffering

Lee Hyun searched for a suitable place for the next disaster .

“Places where the Embinyu Church is playing an active role… . ”

It was convenient to check the bulletin boards . There were posts talking about places where the Embinyu Church had mobilized a huge army to invade . Even the home pages of the broadcasting stations showed dangerous areas where the Embinyu Church was located .

“There doesn't seem to be many places that the Embinyu Church is controlling . ”

He could ride Wy-3 to penetrate into enemy territory . There were already some righteous people who believed in their own level and encountered a useless death . Lee Hyun couldn't act recklessly because he had his own burdens .

It would be dangerous to become surrounded by the army of the Embinyu Church and the Great Disaster Nature Sculpting .

“I need to fight back in the safest spot . ”

Lee Hyun searched for such a place . The terrain and natural environment needed to have the proper conditions for the disaster .

Bernerd Castle in the Aidern Kingdom! The army of the Embinyu Church is advancing towards it and a siege was expected . The place was close to the sea with intense winds .

“It is suitable . Yet this isn't a perfect plains area so the users would have no choice but to be approached in the disaster . ”

Lee Hyun couldn't control the disaster or adjust the strength at will . He took the destructive power of the volcano into consideration and placed it in a distant place but other disasters were uncontrollable .

“I should write a sentence . ”

Lee Hyun logged into his own account on the home page of Royal Road . Thousands of messages had arrived in his mail .

Naturally he didn't read the contents but skimmed their titles . There were advertisement contracts and product sponsorships . Messages that fans sent were like spam mail but he still had the habit of reading the subject .

Hyun-woo entered the bulletin boards .

“I have to write it simply . ”

Title: I am Weed . This is a request .

I'm planning to fight the Embinyu Church at Bernerd Castle in the Aidern Kingdom .

Please warn the users there that a disaster similar to Fort Odin will occur .

They should be careful and not leave the safety of the castle tomorrow .

As soon as Lee Hyun wrote the post, the number of replied surpassed 2,000 in no time .

-I am first .

-Boarding .

-I hitched a ride as well .

-Look at the information not the comments .

-Is it really Weed?

-I'm also Sun Hwi Gwon .

-I thought it was a trick but the ID is really the God of War .

-Weed-nim wouldn't write a sentence here, fools .

-My name is Weed . Kya kya kyak .

-Eh? It really is Weed .

-The person who wrote this is really Weed the God of War .

-I don't know who is a fool . But this is amazing .

Lee Hyun's post increased by hundreds of views in a very short time . It quickly moved to other bulletin boards and communities and became a topic . It spread to the extent that the news reached the broadcasters .

-I'm currently in the Tullen Kingdom . Can I arrive at Bernerd Castle by tomorrow if I ride my horse all night?

-I'm in the Aberdeen Kingdom . I am looking for people to go to Bernerd Castle . Riding skills beginner level 6 or intermediate carriage control skill is necessary .

-I'd like to fight like Weed-nim . Let's go .

-I'll go too . I can't miss a great opportunity to see a disaster .

-Asa, I'm in the Aidern Kingdom . There isn't anything to lose . I have to see the disaster!

The users saw Lee Hyun's words and gathered at Bernerd Castle .

Bernerd Castle .

The Embinyu Church was scheduled to attack it so the users moved to other areas . However, Weed caused users to teleport or travel from other kingdoms towards Aidern Kingdom .

Bernerd Castle has the atmosphere of a festival as users gathered . Tourists arrived at the castle through the main gates .

“Come in quickly . The Embinyu Church is coming closer . ”

“The disaster?”

“Nothing yet . ”

“We've just arrived!”

Users who walked or rode a horse from distant places barely entered the castle walls . If the users' power was combined together then Bernerd Castle's defense had increased by 10 times .

“Embinyu Church!”

“The army is approaching from the south!”

Users felt a sense of expectation in their chest despite seeing the demons and fanatics in the Embinyu Church's army .

“What will Weed-nim use to smash them? It will be completely wonderful . ”

“Kyaa, I really wish they would all be swept away . ”

It was difficult to experience a thrilling moment like this in Royal Road without risking their lives .

The Embinyu Church began advancing towards Bernerd Castle . The distinctive shrieks and voices chanting strange hymns to the Embinyu God rang out .

Kill for God Embinyu

We willingly sacrifice our bodies .

The word of God Embinyu tells us to destroy this corrupt world .

A complete cleanse .

Demon slaves were pulling large siege weapons .

“When is Weed-nim coming? These guys will arrive in less than 30 minutes . ”

“Isn't he a genius? Look at what he did in the previous broadcast . ”

“Being a little late is different from not coming at all . ”

“Maybe it is in between? He often makes a surprise appearance . ”

Users prepared for the siege along with the soldiers . They were in Bernerd Castle so they had to fight the Embinyu Church if they wanted to survive . The Embinyu Church's army was getting closer . They had marched a long distance but the High Priest's power meant they weren't fatigued .

“How long until he comes? If he doesn't then we'll have died for nothing . ”

“He will come . If he doesn't then I will curse him for the rest of my life . ”

Their anxiety grew larger . And then something appeared on the open sea . It was rapidly advancing over the water .

“What is that?”

“F-fabulous!”

The users gathered on the walls . The reason was that they could see 12 whirlwinds approaching land from the sea . If the users died at that moment they would've been satisfied just seeing the whirlwinds!

In front of the whirlwinds was Weed aboard Bingryong . Bingryong roared his regret .

“Master, why is it me this time?”

“Wy-3 ran away!”

Wy-3 hadn't met him at the scheduled place so Weed was delayed .

Bingryong flew with all his strength as the whirlwinds violently whirled behind them . The 12 whirlwinds moved and mixed temporarily, sometimes becoming so big that the size couldn't be imagined . It was to the extent that the sea floor was revealed . The power of that whirlwind would be enough to tear Bingryong to shreds .

“Master, I'm happy because I could be together with you in the meantime . Please give me proper funeral proceedings when I die . ”

The frightened Bingryong flew with all his might while leaving behind a will . The whirlwinds were too scary . Weed also thought back about the long time he had spent with Bingryong .

“Don't worry . I will prepare red beans . ”

“Why would you bring red beans?”

“I can't send you off with nothing . I have to separate the useful parts and sell them . ”

Weed wanted to engage in business with patbingsoo (shave ice and red bean) .

“Kuowooooh!”

Weed and Bingryong finally arrived with the whirlwinds .

“Kyak, the best!”

“Weed-nim, I've been waiting!”

“Ah! It was worth coming here . ”

100 people were on a hill of stones near the coast . They didn't leave even when the Embinyu Church nears and just waited for Weed to come . They were relatively high levelled but set aside their most important equipment . These users wanted to try the cool experience of dying from a disaster .

“My body is floating!”

“Kyaaah, how cool!”

“Grass porridge . Grass porridge!”

The fearful wind suck up the users and struck the army of the Embinyu Church .

Kuweeeek!

Demons shrieked as they flew into the air . The whirlwinds passed over land and uprooted large trees . Even demons planting their feet in the ground and trying to hold on were drawn in by the wind . The 12 whirlwinds advanced through the army of the Embinyu Church and left a complete wreck behind .

Bbuuuuung!

A huge rhinoceros flew into the sky . It then fell to the ground and crushed the fanatics, Dark Knights and priests .

The twisters that intersected and mixed together increased the destructive power to a truly terrifying level .

The siege weapons were smashed or ripped apart and some were dropped into the sea . The steel shields had no effect in stopping the wind as the fanatics were sucked into the whirlwind .

The players who came to Bernerd for the spectacle had goose bumps .

“This isn't a joke . ”

“Ah, it is really scary . ”

“It is like something from a dream . ”

It was the electrifying sight of Weed passing over the Embinyu army on Bingryong with the whirlwinds following him . It was a charisma that made even high level users humble .

“Only the highest levelled use in Royal Road would possess this degree of capability . ”

“It's not completely a legend? I've never seen something like this . ”

“It is really difficult for a magician specializing in wind magic to raise their skill to this extent . ”

The users cheered on Weed's destructive power .

“Bingryong, if this continues then we're going to die . Fly faster!”

“The best… I'm doing my best . ”

Bingryong was big and couldn't help being affected by the whirlwinds . Despite squeezing all his power to fly quickly, the whirlwinds were overwhelming . The power of the whirlwinds was so strong that the users on Bernerd Castle were pushed back by the winds .

Weed turned his head and looked back at the whirlwinds .

“Bingryong . ”

“Speak Master . ”

“I have good news and bad news . Tell me what you want to hear first . ”

“The good news . ”

“The whirlwinds have decreased to 8 . ”

“I'm glad . ”

“And the bad news is that they've become stronger . ”

“That isn't so good after all . ”

“But you felt comfortable for a bit after hearing the good news . ”

4 whirlwinds had integrated with the others and the power was doubled . 4 large and 4 small whirlwinds were left .

The Embinyu Church's army formation completely disappeared because of the wind . Battling in such intense winds was impossible . The Embinyu Church became offerings for the whirlwinds .

The demons, fanatics and Dark Knights were also flying in the air with Bingryong . They were thrown all over the place by the whirlwinds . They fell from a high place so almost all of their health drained out at a dreadful speed .

The even more fearful thing was being caught in the middle of the whirlwinds . The distance between the whirlwinds was wide so many things were caught up by them . There were wood, stones, trees, water etc . along with the Dark Knight, demons and fanatics .

“We're going to get caught . Can't you go faster?”

“This is the maximum speed that I can go . ”

“It can't be . ”

The power of Great Disaster Nature Sculpting meant he couldn't get caught . Disasters like a landslide or cliff collapse was somewhat predictable but the suction power of a whirlwind was different . It was to the extent that solid wooden buildings disappeared without a trace . A large rock hanging in the air was crushed into tiny pebbles by the wind pressure .

“The disaster shouldn't last that longer . Bingryong, prepare to turn back!”

Bingryong obeyed Weed's words and slowed his speed . His instinct was to fly forward but Bingryong took a breath and slowed his speed while turning around .

He believed in Weed after the relationship they formed . As soon as he slowed, Bingryong felt the suction power of the whirlwinds .

“Wait a minute . And… Now . Blow!”

Ice Breath was emitted from Bingryong's mouth and struck the whirlwinds . The whirlwinds were temporarily weakened but that only lasted for 10 seconds . The whirlwinds spinning and scattering the chunks of ice was a spectacular sight .

It was more like an ice storm than a whirlwind . And the movement stopped until the remaining whirlwinds were merged together . Bingryong's eyes were filled with resentment as he looked at the whirlwind . The whirlwinds mixed with each other started to unravel .

“Bingryong, fly!”

Bingryong was happy to accept that command . Weed and Bingryong escaped from the tangled whirlwinds and flew to the remnants of the Embinyu Church's army .

The whirlwinds had really wreaked havoc as corpses and shattered fragments were scattered in front of Bernerd Castle . And the moment the whirlwinds disappeared .

The Embinyu Church's army had fallen from the sky .

Kuwooooh!

“Em…bingyu… Praise God… . ”

The demons and fanatics were scattered all over the place . The Embinyu Church's army had suffered a loss of more than 20% . Almost all the Dark Knights and priests caught in the whirlwind had died . The demons and fanatics didn't suffer a huge loss but their morale had fallen to the lowest possible level .

The Embinyu Church's High Priest had immediately retreated with some dark knights when the disaster had approached . The Embinyu Church didn't have that spirit of sacrifice like the Royal Knights .

The highest rank of the army was safe but the damage received by the army caused the command system to collapse . Morale played an important role in battle and their commanding officers had just fled the battlefield .

Weed flew towards Bernerd Castle on Bingryong . And he let loose his Lion's Roar!

“Let's go! We will win this fight!”

Bernerd Castle was owned by a NPC lord . Weed wasn't a king on the Central Continent so he had no authority but he had showed off his power and leadership .

“Open the gate!”

The gates opened at the lord's command . And users came out to fight the Embinyu Church . It was possible to fight while protecting the castle wall but the enemy wasn't responding properly so it was more profitable to go and attack directly .

There was the High Priest and Dark Knights but it became a one sided battle once Weed, Phoenix, Golden Bird, Silver Bird and Bahamorg appeared .

“Kuaaak . ”

Wy-3 belatedly flew down from the sky .

The Embinyu Church's army had suffered considerable damage but the main power, the High Priest and Dark Knights had been unharmed due to their retreat . The fanatics and demons tried to fight against Weed, his sculptural lifeforms and the users of Bernerd Castle but they had lost their will .

The main force retreated as soon as the situation wasn't good . Nevertheless, it was a big battle so the people involved could gain fame, loot, stats and achievements .

“Weed-nim, thank you very much . ”

“I'm really grateful . ”

Weed got back on Bingryong and disappeared into the distance . The users couldn't forget the memory of Bingryong's magnificent wings spreading .

The third Great Disaster Nature Sculpting was used in Rosenheim Kingdom .

Many areas in the Rosenheim Kingdom were under the rule of the Embinyu Church . While searching for a suitable place, he found a fortress that the Embinyu Church had built!

A colossal amount of food and weapons for war were gathered .

“There are at least 70,000 troops . And siege weapons are also being manufactured . ”

It could be seen as an important bridgehead for the Embinyu Church to secure the Rosenheim Kingdom .

Weed decided to ruin this place . And Wy-3 was trembling in fear .

“I've done many bad things but this isn't dangerous . ”

He had created quite a few disasters . This time safety was the most important fact so Weed prepared something suitable .

“Great Disaster Nature Sculpting!”

A sculpture of a Red King Ant was destroyed! After a while, the Embinyu Church's fortress was covered with red king ants .

“It looks as beautiful as expected . ”

Weed flew over the fortress on Wy-3 . It was going to be broadcasted on KMC Media and CTS Media so a suitable atmosphere was required .

“We need to use his popularity . ”

The broadcasting stations wanted a song . The reason was that many viewers were interested but Weed declined . He couldn't properly sing if the stage wasn't a large battle .

“I won't recklessly sing my important songs . ”

The king ants could eat wood and even stones and iron . The demons and fanatics in the fortress tried to resist by fighting . Several buildings collapsed and flames soared up .

However, the number of red king ants crawling from the ground and through gaps in doors was frightening . They had small wings but could only fly 4~5 metres at a time . On a broad plains area, wide area fire magic could be used but the fortress was a shut environment so it was more advantageous to the red king ants .

Monsters crawled out of every opening and holes in the buildings . Meanwhile the red king ants ate the food fathered and made it impossible to use the weapons . The buildings were severely damaged and many fanatics died .

Even more cruelly, it didn't end with just one disaster . So far Weed had created disasters related to the natural environment . But this time the disaster was related to a creature .

The red king ants cut holes in the ceilings and laid many eggs . The baby ants would be born and the disaster repeated .

“Even the house I lived in before had trouble with ants . ”

Weed remembered the house he had rented back in his junior high days .

It would become infested with ants if he spilled even one drop of a drink . It was to the extent that leaving an open bottle of coke would have the ants swarming . The cockroaches and mice were nothing next to ants . If the ants bred properly then it was really difficult to get rid of them . The ground was covered in a blanket of ants

“The ants aren't as strong as humans . But if didn't leave any food in the house then they would try to tear my flesh . ”

The disaster reminded Weed of bad memories in his past .

The power of experience!

The Allesa Fortress became permanently unusable .

Ddiring!

Weed gained a huge profit from the disaster related quest .

“I need to go back and report the quest . Wy-3, let's go . ”

While the Imperial Palace was being constructed, the Hermes Guild worked on domestic administration for the areas they occupied . Lords were appointed, roads built to connect to other areas of the Empire, farmlands were expanded and urban development and mining was accomplished .

But more than anything else, it was important for them to expand their military power . Knights were selected and commanders led soldiers out to subdue monsters .

Only a small number of top level leaders knew the Hermes Guild's war plans .

“We have to hurry and conquer the continent . There will be no truces now . ”

“The training of the archers has been completed quickly . The magic soldiers unit is the problem… . . ”

“Didn't Krobidyun agree to prepare them?”

“More time is necessary to raise the ability of the residents . Despite that, the magic soldiers unit right now is wonderful . ”

The Hermes Guild strategically built magician related facilities and learning facilities in various cities . It was expensive but necessary to raise the ability of the guild . The Hermes Guild also invested in research and development . They taught smart residents and formed a magic soldiers unit .

The Hermes Guild raised the Haven Empire and prepared to conquer various kingdoms . They didn't want to stop the continent conquest war once started so they systematically prepared their forces for it .

“Weed is showing a prominent figure these days . ”

The residents of the Haven Empire were talking about Weed every day . Merchants trading at a market or workers in a tavern spread stories about Weed's adventures against the Embinyu Church . Weed was being called a hero of the continent so the Hermes Guild wasn't pleased at all .

“He seems to be doing the Sculptor's Master Quest . Bardray-nim, do you have anything to say about that?”

“I have nothing to say . It isn't necessary to deal with him right now . ”

“He has the precedent of causing trouble for our guild . It might not be a good idea to leave him alone . ”

Quite a few top level leaders wanted to take strong measures against Weed . Weed had damaged the Hermes Guild's pride many times . They wanted to restore their honour now that the Haven Kingdom had grown into an empire .

Bardray had already got revenge on Weed in the Melbourne Mine so Lafaye considered him as minor compared to the other noteworthy guilds on the continent .

“Stop . The Hermes Guild can't care about Weed now . Class Master Quest? There is no need to be interested in that . If Weed succeeds first then it might distract people . Our goal is to complete the conquest of the continent and we should focus on that . ”

“Understood . ”

Lafaye made preparations for war with the entire continent . It was decided to ignore Weed for the moment .

Weed arrived at the Stellar Tear in Rhodium to report the quest .

“You have come back safely . ”

“Yes . I restored justice on the continent as a sculptor and returned . ”

“It must have been difficult and dangerous . ”

“No . I was just doing what my heart felt was worthwhile . It is my mission to help the people persecuted by the Embinyu Church . ”

Ddiring!

The Embinyu Church at Fort Odin and Bernerd Castle . The third disaster struck Allesa Fortress .

The inhabitants of the continent will know about the sculptor Weed's justice . The Embinyu Church that recruits people with lies and fear has received a big impediment .

“I will tell you more about how to express a radiant beauty . ”

“I will listen . ”

“There are several avenues for research so sculptors often find their opinions conflict while drinking alcohol . ”

And he heard miscellaneous stories for a long time . Some sculptors didn't have a good nature, others weren't happy drinkers etc . Weed remembered all the information he heard with no exception . Something might be a clue when facing a difficult quest .

'Drinking alcohol and fighting, being popular with women, selling sculptures to pay off debts… . . Different types of sculptors tried to sculpt a radiant beauty . '

Weed was then informed about what he had to do .

“You must not give in when trying to express a radiant beauty . You should move forward despite any disruption that might occur on the continent . It will help if you learn to bend with the wind and the waves . And the years… . ”

“Huh?”

“It takes a really long time to be able to carve the nature in the world . The sweat incurred from the long labour can be represented in the sculptor's words . ”

Even the open grain of a dead tree cut down was beautiful and over time it could grow branches again . Rainwater would flow and gather in ravines and after a long time become a waterfall .

It was the magnificent beauty of nature that even a sculptor couldn't challenge .

“Something created over a long period of time can be called a miracle . The sculptor had to go through hardships in order to express that beauty . Are you familiar with the free spirited Fairies?”

“A little… . Our relationship isn't bad . ”

He had a quest related to healing the Fairy Queen Teneidon's wings that were cursed by a dragon . However, the quest difficulty was high and it wasn't an urgent quest so he could do it without rushing . He had saved Teneidon by killing Barkhan so the fairies were still thankful to him . They also sometimes appeared when he cooked in dungeons . Weed was satisfied eating delicious dishes and the fairies would go away when he tore off barley bread for them .

“Even if you are the aware of the miracle of nature, the sculpture will take a long time to form . The fairies can help with that . ”

Ddiring!

The sculpting master Zahab has left behind Sculpting Blade . It is a sword technique that uses moonlight to defeat wicked enemies! You have developed Sculpting Blade and even learnt Radiant Sword .

Raise the skill proficiency of Radiant Sword by watching the wind and waves . The more intensely the wind and waves are, the quicker the experience will rise .

Your current standard is Beginner level 6 . Reach Advanced level 2 in 110 days .

Level of Difficulty: Final Secret Sculpting Technique Quest

Quest Restrictions: Sculpting Blade and Radiant Sword is required .

The quest will fail if you fall into the water and die .

It was a very unexpected quest but Weed was used to this type of thing after training with the Geomchis . And it wasn't just one quest .

Many of the beauty in the world isn't completed in a short time period .

Complete a sculpture of nature .

If completed, the fairies will gather to live there and give you a gift .

Due to the nature of sculpting and the fairies, the terrain can't be completely changed .

Level of Difficulty: Final Secret Sculpting Technique Quest

Quest Restrictions: Nature Sculpting is required .

A close relationship with the Fairies .

The quest will fail if you die .

He already had the quest from the Fairy Queen Teneidon but fortunately his quest to create a secret technique didn't affect his quest limit . If he hadn't settled that then he wouldn't be able to get the final secret technique .

“First the most urgent… I need to reach Advanced level 2 in 110 days .

The proficiency of an offensive skill grows quicker than a basic sword skill . But it isn't an easy thing to suddenly raise a skill .

“If my Radiant Sword level was already high then I don't know how much I would've had to raise it . Anyway, if I use it repeatedly then I can raise the proficiency level . ”

Weed's mind was already heading towards the beach . This wasn't an ordinary sea . The beaches on the northeast of the northern continent had fierce winds that hit the waves .

Merchant users often visited Vent Castle and Arpen Kingdom became more widely known .

“This is a specialty of the Arpen Kingdom! A really good product . Many people are looking forward to it so I've brought a lot . ”

“In the days of the Niflheim Empire, there was no need to worry about monsters like we do now . ”

“I'm thankful for the King of the Arpen Kingdom for beating back the north . But our knights are loyal to the Niflheim Empire until the day we die . ”

“The food from Morata is really fresh and tasty . Wasn't it a place known for its sewing skills in the past? It seems to have a wonderful lord . ”

The residents and hunters marvelled while trading with the Arpen Kingdom users . The merchants were satisfied with the trade route and went around the north even more eagerly .

Merchants would ride horse drawn carriages to look for new villages . They created northern trade routes .

Morata's Merchants Association!

Merchants who found a village and traded there could gain experience and money . They invested a huge amount of money into the Arpen Kingdom and the merchants like the benefits of proprietary trading .

But that changed after Gamong opened the way to Vent Castle .

'I can't eat that much alone despite my monopoly ending when other merchants come . '

'It will be okay if the village develops . '

'There are many places in the north that have been closed off with their development stagnant . If merchants come there then development will quickly increase . '

The scale of the trade depended on the size of the village and the number of residents .

“I came here with some food so do you want to trade?”

“Of course . You brought such important food… . . But as you can see, our village is old and there might not be enough to exchange . Will you take the fangs of a monster or animal leather as payment?”

“Yes!”

Ddiring!

The food has been imported through trade with a merchant . The empty grain warehouses have been filled and residents can feel a sense of relief .

The productivity of the residents has increased by 300% for 1 month . The village's culture and technology will advance quickly in that period of time .

If there is a stable supply of food then the village's birth-rate will increase .

The residents' alignment has changed to active .

Guests can participate in the festival and enjoy themselves .

Rice snacks and wheat that were the Arpen Kingdom's specialities could be sold at the festival . The advances in productivity, the technology developed and the birth-rate increase were highly appreciated .

Many villages in the far north and the mountains have existed since the time of the Niflheim Empire . If the population increased then the merchant could trade in larger quantities . If the village grew into cities then the list of luxury goods would grow .

Villages isolated in the mountains of the north that weren't destroyed by monsters were developed by the merchants . While Weed had a grasp of the circumstances in Morata and the Arpen Kingdom, he didn't know about the changed in Vent Castle and the north .

Many of the northern villages were destroyed by monsters so only a small number of people lived there . Users weren't interested in such places . The population didn't exceed 300 people maximum in those places .

It was just a momentary place to rest while exploring the continent . But the villages grew due to the merchants visiting and the influence of the Arpen Kingdom spread .

And it spread .

They had a village meeting and decided to belong to the Arpen Kingdom .

Specialties: None

Population: 1,491

Monthly Tax Revenue: 732 gold .

Villages steadily joined the Arpen Kingdom .

“Isn't it true that King Weed doesn't begrudge spending money on his residents, agriculture, technology and art development? I heard it from travellers . Many people are talking about the intelligent king of the north . ”

“I heard that the Arpen Kingdom is a place that people can really live in . Of course it would be wonderful with a hero ruling it . ”

“We can trust in the honourable King Weed . I will take my wife and children to Arpen Kingdom . ”

Weed was known for his adventures, sculpting, Morata and the founding of the Arpen Kingdom so he had a significant impact on the residents of the north .

For the moment, the land was scarcely populated and of no use but if they got rid of the monsters then mine development could be accomplished . There were also specialities from the Niflheim Empire so if investments were made then they could reappear .

The territory of the Arpen Kingdom widened and the merchants obtained more profit from trading with the villages .

Merchants affiliated with a kingdom could have easy and comfortable dealings when making domestic trades . Normally only a few merchants would go to closed off villages but there was no such restrictions in the Arpen Kingdom . In addition, it was possible to enhance their fame and contribution to the kingdom by making large profits in trades .

If there was a good village then merchants would buy farmland or abandoned mining areas . If they threw mercenaries at their investments to eradicate the monsters then they could make a steady profit . They also didn't forget to build stores and smithies . They could buy more goods in a village they had influence in .

Merchants didn't have a very good impression on the Versailles Continent .

-A miser who won't get rid of even 1 coin .

-A talkative person who spends time in the squares and talks nonsense .

-A profession with no combat power, can't adventure and has no goals other then making money .

Merchants had no merit other then making money according to other people . Most merchants were active on the Central Continent were the economic power and development was stable . Of course, merchants enjoyed themselves but other users didn't approve of their profession .

But the north was a paradise . Development speed increased depending on the activities of merchants riding on carriages . Beginners were absorbed by the Arpen Kingdom and spread in the north . From the users' perspective, the villages they were active in became large and the quality of the goods sold improved .

The north was polished off by Mapan and Gamong!

Other combat professions respected the for their ability to develop a village .

-The merchants are raising the kingdom .

-Merchants are the flower of trade .

There was a re-evaluation of merchants . And some residents who were scholars said .

“The King of the Arpen Kingdom has a link to the Niflheim Empire . ”

“What does that mean?”

“He is the only person that can bring the Niflheim Empire back . ”

Weed had gone to Jigolaths and succeeded in a S rank quest .

The founding of the Niflheim Empire! The quest was just lingering and waiting for the conditions to be met . Weed had the title of Heir to the Niflheim Empire and this had a great effect on the culture of the Arpen Kingdom .

Even the users and lords in the Arpen Kingdom were swayed by it . The villages in the north including Vent Castle started to show respect for Weed and their interest in the Arpen Kingdom increased .
