A week has passed since the invasion of King's Landing. We are still doing our best to rebuild the city.
When we first invaded King's Landing, we thought it would take three years to rebuild the city, even if we called in people from the capital and used manpower and sea tactics. However, there was no support from the Empire, which we had counted on, and we had to rethink our original plan. Dozens of things to be done came to mind, and we prioritized them and started with what we could do first.
However, on the third day after we started the soup kitchen. There was a change. To my surprise, the people of Tokyo said that they would do the soup kitchen themselves. We were grateful for this. All we had to do was to carry the food, and the ladies who had gathered there would prepare the dishes on their own. It was nothing short of brilliant that they had organized the duties and assigned each person's role in almost an instant.
Immediately we set about another task. It was to dispose of the many corpses left in King's Landing.
For the time being, the smell and decomposition were suppressed by the scales of the faerie dragons, but it was only a temporary measure, and it was clear that decomposition and smell would occur as the days passed. It was May who solved this problem. She used an insectivorous plant called "kolassane", a devilish plant that wraps its tendrils around the body of a living creature and sucks the nutrients from it, as a solution.
Hearing that the plant grew wild deep in the mountains of the Principality of Niza, Mei and I took the Ilimo and moved to the Principality. We entered the mountains and immediately found the plant, which we immediately locked in a ward and brought back to the capital.
First of all, the corassane planted in the cultivated area where the dead bodies were left, took root as soon as May poured some medicine on it and covered the dead bodies with its vines. It seems that the drug was an explosive growth stimulant, and although it has the disadvantage of withering away quickly, it is a perfect drug for this environment. Not wanting to damage the residential area, I set up a ward over the entire cultivated land and watched the situation. Overnight, the area had turned into a beautiful flower garden.
The blooming flowers were devoured by the faerie dragons in no time. I heard that the taste was very rich and luscious, but I don't know what it was.
After another night, the korasane had withered away beautifully. Seeing this, we gathered the corpses of the Lamarong soldiers and planted kolasaane there. Two days later, there was nothing left but their armor, helmets, and swords. We took some of them, but most of the surplus armor and helmets were as good as scrap iron, so I waved to the people of King's Landing that they could take them home if they wished. In the end, their armor and helmets were all gone within a day. They were later used not only for the gates of the city, but also for the people's houses, stores, and even carriages, and would play a role in improving the defenses of the city and its people.
At the same time, May was studying the golden bird. The birds were still chirping noisily in the wards, but May took no notice of them and began to dismantle them as soon as she caught them. Then, she started to study the birds, not caring about the rotting meat.
After an hour of waiting, May, who had experimented on several golden birds, turned to me with a smile.
"Master! This is a very rare individual! After all, since saunaworth circulates in the body, it is relatively easy for the phenomenon of shalinaeus to occur! I see. This is well done. So, if you can get the linkage jit right.... But in watts might work too. I can do it!
"...Oh, yeah. . ..I got it pretty much figured out. I got the gist, yeah. I'll leave the goldfinch to you..."
"Hi!"
May replies happily with a huge smile on her face. I am not without a trace of anxiety, but maybe, just maybe, it will be all right.
After that, May wanders, or rather explores, the forest of Lunois while feeding the golden bird. She says that she needs to know a little more about their ecology in order to raise goldfinches. He is not worried about it, since he has basically warded the area and can check their location on the map. They will be back for dinner.
With food supplies no longer a concern, and the many corpses disposed of, King's Landing is coming back to life. Basically, there are only old men, children, and women in the city, but everyone is trying to rebuild the city.
The old people are especially energetic. The old man is doing carpentry work with his old-fashioned skills. Mei checked the cultivated land and found that there was no problem at all, so seeds were sown and water was supplied from the well.
There were a surprisingly large number of young women who had been thought to have been overrun by Lamaron's soldiers. They hid them in the attics of their houses or warehouses to save their lives. It was highly possible that the tragedy would have spread further if our arrival had been delayed.
Basically, Knogen and his men were in charge of protecting the capital, and so far no major problems have occurred. They are perfectly accepted by the people of King's Landing, perhaps because they are dressed like adventurers without a small iron belt. Many of them are second or third sons of the empire and are basically good looking. This is one of the reasons why they are so popular among the women, and some of them have already been asked to make lunch boxes for the young ladies. Well, it is a good thing that love is fostered, so for now, I am keeping an open mind.
Speaking of women, the problem of women victims in Ramalon was quite serious. Women abducted from neighboring villages and towns had already been victimized, so it was not a simple matter. May, as expected, had no way to deal with this problem, and it seemed that the problem had reached an impasse.
It was the Poseidonians who saved the day.
They were known as the "Black Doctors" in Krumfal, and when they were ordered to assist, four of the best doctors were transferred to the city. I entrusted them with the health care of the people of King's Landing, and when I asked them about the women, they told me that it was possible to erase their memories by using faerie dragon scale powder.
I immediately consulted Sadakichi, who told me that it was only possible with a higher species like the faeries. I asked him about it, and he answered that he would try it, although he was quite hesitant.
We immediately transfer the women to the house and gather them in the garden. We then lock Fairy and the women in a ward. The women who are immobilized or in a state of delirium are forced to come with him, so there is quite a commotion inside the ward. In the midst of it all, the faerie is fluttering around above them.
The faerie has been flying for a while, when suddenly a dazzling light emanates from her body. The soft light gently envelops the women. When the light subsides, the fallen women and Fairy are found.
"Hey, Fairy! Hang on!"
"Uhhh..."
Upon closer inspection, I saw that his wings were torn to shreds. Immediately I heal Fairy with my Ultimate Heal and repair her wings.
"Don't be reckless!
"I was trying to make the powder the way I imagined it, but I put too much effort into it..."
"But I admire your efforts!"
I take Fairy in my arms and pat her on the head.
"Heh heh heh..."
Fairy smiles happily. What a soothing smile. She must be quite a beautiful girl if she were human.
The women sleep for a whole day. When they awoke, most of them had successfully lost their memories of the Lamaronites. However, some of the women who were delirious or had a complete mental breakdown were in a state of amnesia, forgetting even their own names. Faeri was quite depressed, but she could not be blamed for this. It seems that the women who have lost their memories are all alone in the world because their families have been killed by Ramalon. Still young, they have no choice but to start a new life in the capital.
Incidentally, it will be a long time before I will know that all the women who were victims of Lamaron's soldiers have been restored to their original state thanks to my extra heel.
For now, each of them is busy getting their lives back on track. I am in King's Landing every day to find out what the problems are, to think about how to solve them, and to put them into action. Rico, Peris, Ferris, and Ruara are also taking turns to support my work and the people of King's Landing. I am very grateful.
But the most important thing is the resilience of the people of King's Landing, which I can rely on very much. They gather voluntarily, discuss problems, and solve them on the spot. This is also the reason why there are still few requests like petitions.
This exchange in King's Landing will create an unexpected scene in the future that will astonish the whole world, but I had no way of knowing that at the moment.
