 A few days after the dinner party, Leolde  came to the royal castle with his research team that , including Charlotte and Rudolph.

"Now, let's see the results of our new barrier magic."

 The reason why Leolde and his team had come to the royal castle was to   report about the new  baarriers magic. The first step was to show the king and his ministers  how god that magic 

 As a demonstration, Leolde  was attacked with magic and Baynard  was attacked with a sword. The king and his ministers shouted in surprise when they saw how well the   protected with  barrier.

 Having confirmed the strength of the barrier, the next step was to test their implementation. The first step was to observe the situation for a week. During that time, Sylvia's sacred wards would be  undone and knights and mages would be stationed on the castle walls. This way, even if the barrier will  be breached, so  we would be able to respond quickly.

 That's why Leolde will be returning to Ze'at. If a problem arises, his subordinate are supposed to handle it, but Leolde will came if the researchers can't handle it.

 Leolde hoped that he would not have to take part in this.

 After returning to Ze'at, Leolde took care of the paperwork that had accumulated. After that, he  need  to meet with the head of the merchants.

 After that, he went to Marco, who was working hard to develop  cars, and asked him about the progress. He  answered that at this stage, the car was not yet at a level where it could be sold  on market .

"Well, ......."

"I'm sorry, Lord .Leolde. I couldn't live up to your expectations. ......"

 Don't worry about it. I don't expect it to be that easy. Let's just  di it step by step.

"Oh. All right, Lord Leolde!

 Even if  he know the completed form, it is still difficult to reproduce it completely. But the fact that it's so close to completion is amazing. He  should praise Marco and the other workers .

 After leaving the factory, Leolde decided to take a tour of the city. The streets were finished, but many of the buildings were still unfinished, so it would take some more time.

 And what Leolde was most interested in was the former imperial territory thar was near the  sea. The registration of the indigenous people had already been completed, but there was no port. There is a reason why there is no port, it's  because in addition to being in the corner of the imperial territory, the nearby sea is inhabited by ferocious monsters .

 That's why  it's impossible  build a port. But Leolde  Can give up on the port. With Charlotte's transference magic, it is possible to  get fresh fish at any time, but that would not promote the development of food culture. Leolde, who wanted more people to eat fresh fish if possible, decided to proceed with the construction of the port.

 However, an unexpected problem appeared . He wanted to make it a tourist attraction. There was a proposal to kill the ferocious  monsters that lived in the nearby sea and turn  that place into a beach and a tourist attraction place .  Leolde thought it was not a bad idea, but countered that a port would be better for the economy.

 Naturally, the other party countered, and the argument continued. It was not normally allowed to argue with the lord, but since he had given permission, there was no problem. However, only honest opinions  were acceptable.

 After a lot of discussion, it was decided to build a port , because the port is important for distribution. However, if Leolde  wil be be given a new territory in the future, it would have to be a tourist attraction.

" We'll build a port and recruit shipbuilders at the same time!"

 Leolde was not a genius. His men misunderstood him, but he had no knowledge of shipbuilding, as he only drew his knowledge from  past life memories. That's why  he need to  find experts.

 That's why Leolde  asked Sylvia. Leolde also has a wide network of contacts, but Sylvia's network is wider than Leolde's because she has been meeting with many nobles for a long time. So, Leolde  asked Sylvia if she had any suggestions for a shipbuilding craftsmens .

"Your Highness! I'm planning to build a port, but I don't have any ships, so do you know anyone who can build them ?

"A ship? I know a few people who might be able to help you out.

"Oh! Thank you very much."

"- Hmm, this is  not big deal ?"

Oh, thank you!"

 He very pleased with my reliable fiancée Sylvia. Incidentally, Sylvia is also happy that Leolde  can rely on her.

 With Sylvia's help, Leolde begins to build the port. First, he  told to the former citizens of the empire that he is going to build a port. Since none of them lived  near the sea, there was no particular opposition. In fact, they seemed to welcome the idea of creating a place for distribution and enriching the market.

 Then, Leolde called Zephyr and asked him to  cut own trees .

"Just so you know, I'm a mercenary, right?"

"I know, but wind magic is the best to cut down trees, right?"

"Yeah, but ....... You're always doing the  strange  things.

"Oh, come on.  I will pay you."

"Not everything is allowed if you pay for it, you know. But as long as I'm being paid, I'll do my job properly.  After all, trust is the key to a mercenary's job.

"Good, that's the spirit!"

 He asked Zephyr to help him clear the forest to make room for the port town he was planning to build.

 In his mind, he had a picture of a port town from a famous movie. He is thinking of recreating a beautiful town with a port.

 To do this, he called Sasha and explained the town he had in mind. Sasha listened to Leolde's vague explanation, and through trial and error, she successfully arrived at the cityscape Leolde had envisioned.

"  I didn't expect you to actually recreate it."

"Oh, well, ...... is still in design stage , so it's not quite finished yet. ......"

"Hmm, mmm. That's right. But I'm amazed that you were able to recreate it so well with the explanation I  just gave. How long will it take?"

"With a hundred or so earth magic users  that equal to you  , it could be done in three months. ......"

 Hearing this, Leolde  almost broke out into a snort. The city that Sasha had designed was indeed the very model that Leoldd had in mind.

 However, it would take a tremendous amount of effort to recreate it. 

 However, not wanting to compromise, Leolde decided to hire    earth magic users. There are already many earth magic users working in Zeat, but only a few of them are  equal to Leolde . Then  he  ned hire new ones, but the problem is that there are  not a lot of free earth magic users in the kingdom.

 In any case, Leolde   need to hired most of the free earth magicians.

Note wil take break for couple days
