Garudeina Oukoku Koukoku Ki Vol 2 Chapter 11

「Nii-san……」

「Hmm? 」

「Some people fainted, but……」

「It’s a shame. It’s surely their first time flying in the sky.」

「Why don’t you……」

At the time, Georg was flying smoothly to their reclaimed land. At first, Georg thought about letting them fly the same way Ferris flew, but he was afraid that he will scare them and decided to transfer the whole ground with them.

He cut around the beast people and the goods and approximately 50cm into the ground and compressed it. The ground was just like an iron plate now and was lifted up with the help of wind magic.

「Aa~…… Now they huddle together……」

「Wouldn’t it be nice if they became friends through the suspension bridge effect? 」

Said Georg who laughs cheerfully, while Ferris stared at him with a hint of mockery in her eyes.

「Don’t look so much, it’s embarra.s.sing.」

「I didn’t look at you in that way!!」

「That’s a pity. Apart from that, we’ll arrive soon anyway, do you want to say something to them? 」

「You are getting serious all of a sudden…… I’m fine. The plan for today is only the greetings, medical treatment, meals, and rest, isn’t it? 」

「Yeah, aside from guiding them through the town if you want, there is nothing to do today. When the houses are a.s.signed properly, you can get them to help you carry the blankets and miscellaneous goods. I can make simple closets and because we have blankets I should make beds, too. Until we can produce new clothes we need to handle them properly because it’s all we have for now.」

「How to say it? It looks like your utility is more delicate than I thought, Nii-san.」

「…… Don’t say more.」

He can’t make clothes (because clothes made out of shredded dragon skin are not recognized as clothes) and even if he produced food and hasten the growth period, it won’t be enough. The creation of living things is out of the question since something like that is the work of demons. After all, he is not embarra.s.sed to live all alone, or more precisely his efficiency to manage these things after the country is established and developed is, by then, not in his hands anymore.

「There is no kind of living thing that is perfect. Mm, if I compare myself to humans, I might be eternally perfect.」

「I wonder about that.」

Every living thing on the surface has excelling proficiency in stubbornness to survive, moreover, the quality of magic is everywhere and high too. That led to a lifespan 20 times higher than normal. It’s natural that mankind yearns for this place.

「Thanks to various things, I’ll able to handle the strain and save the trouble.」

「Nii-san, I think you’re overdoing it.」

「I intend to do it properly.」

While continuing this conversation, they headed towards the new land of the beast people.

「We have arrived.」

「At last, oh, be careful people behind us. We’re going to descend now.」

And then inside the built castle wall he unloaded them in a place where nothing is constructed yet.

「Hmm, there is no obstacle at our schedule landing point. No magical abnormality. The Output is normal. Now……」

「What are you saying? 」

「……………」

George was silent as he landed on the ground, while thinking about the extent of his male romance.

「Now, first of all. Welcome to your new world!!I’d like to say various things first…… Could you come over here first?」

When he looked at the beast people, most of them are more or less injured and their condition doesn’t seem to be good either (But this is mostly because of Georg).To cure them he made up his mind and used large area recovery magic.

Light wraps up the vicinity like warm sunlight. There were beast people whose complexion obviously improved. The animals in the cage behind them seem to get energetic incidentally as well.

「Th…… This is……」
「M, My ears…… I have ears!!」
「The pain in my hands and feet are gone……」
「It’s warm……」

Such voices suddenly appeared, while Georg approvingly nodded while he continued.

「Now let’s try again with the greetings, I’m Georg Stanford. As you can see, I’m a Dragunir. And this is my sister……」

「I’m Ferris. Ferris Stanford. I’m a tiger beast.」

He took his hood off while talking and noises different from before can be heard.

「Even though he said sister, but as you can see we are not connected by blood. I was bought for a certain village, then saved by my elder brother and now I’m here on my own accord. I’ve got a generous family and with my elder brother, I’ve spent it as a younger sister so far. From now on, I hope that we all can become a family.」

As she summed up her talk, the noises quietened down and were now waiting for the next words of them.

「…… Then Ladies and Gentlemen. I welcome you to our town, our home and to my family. There are no humans here. There is no one here to oppress your existence. You’ll develop it with your own hands, make it rich, and make it a place where life is fully enjoyed… As long as it is here and at least as long as I am here it’s protected. I, in this world, want to change the way humans look down upon the so-called demi-humans. The first step, it is up to Ferris and you, Ladies and Gentlemen…… If I hear that somebody wants to return to their former place, I’ll send you back by all means. However, I pray, that you want to carve a new history with me.」

He finished speaking to them and waited for a reaction. Before long, bit by bit, their voices returned.

「…… Here, is it possible to live freely? 」

「Well, of course, there are limits. I’ll punish killing, stealing, fraud and other criminal acts with severe punishment.」

「Err…… We…… What should I do? 」

「There are various things to do. Agriculture, dairy farming, animal husbandry and in the future the management of the town and commerce etc. while I only a.s.sist.」

「Su…… Such a thing…… But I’m also uneducated.」

「I forgot to say it, but for several months, I will have you study hard. We will start with reading and writing of the characters, then addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in order to be able to do it. I’ll secure the food, clothing and housing in the meantime. And those who reached the desired level will be a.s.signed to a work that fulfills their demands. Though a temporary house is given now, as soon as your workplace is decided, you’ll move to a place more suitable for your work, which will become your princ.i.p.al residence.」

「I can study!?」

「Obviously. Or let me say: I plan to have a lot more people in the future and all the work will be left to me? Give me break.」

He said while smiling wryly. The excitement of the beast people increased to its peak.

「We’ll study……」
「Should I no longer be afraid of violence?」
「I…… I can choose work for myself……」
「I can’t believe it…… like a human……」
「Bulls.h.i.+t, we are not an imitation of humans.」
「I…… after all…… can have a house?」
「I didn’t say that.」

The loud noises lasted for a while.

「I’ll follow Stanford.」
「Me too. I want to return the favor of healing my ears.」
「If a powerless elf like myself can be useful……」

Such voices were emitted from every mouth and soon a consensus was reached. Georg spoke soothe.

「You made up your mind. Ladies and Gentleman, You are the beginning of this town and you will mark the beginning of its history……」

Then, after looking at the eyes of the people, he smiled.

「My Family.」

After saying this, everyone had a uniformly joyful smile or a tearful face or a determined expression on their faces.
