Chapter 74: 74 - 74th Earthquakeり

"Well, what are we going to do with them?"

Decide what to do with the 200 gurions. For the time being, we decide to keep the Gurion King as a hostage in the house of the Lord of Krumphal. The rest of them were to live basically in the woods around the house, where they were to hunt and keep a certain number of the demons they hunted in the house. Naturally, if any harm is done to them, I will exterminate them. Perhaps it will not come to that.

Since there were few people who could talk with the gurions, Rico would stay at the house during the daytime for a while to listen to their reports. As I would later learn, there were many resources and fruits in this forest, and the Gurions were very helpful in hunting them in cooperation with the harpies, as well as in gathering information, and they were very useful as our scouts and vanguard force.

And as for the baby gurions, we were able to find the enemy of the baby gurions. But the world of Gurions is a simple one where the strong win and the losers have no say in the matter. Therefore, Baby Gurion has no choice but to become stronger and defeat him.

By the way, what is your name?

"Name? What is it?

"Well, it's kind of like a marker for us to call you. If you don't have one, I'll give you one.

I'll think of a name for the gurion king for a while. It's getting tedious.

"Okay, your name is Geki. I'll call you Gheke."

"It is understood."

They accepted me without any objection. He does not seem to be too particular about his name.

"Speaking of which, let me give you a name too. You are..."

"By the way, this baby gurion is a female.

"Ue? Scalpel? Uh... your name is Itra.

"Kyuuuuuuhhh!"

Baby Gurion looks happy. Gong told me later that he was happy to be treated the same way as the Gurion King. We decided to take Itora back to our house and make her our pet. She will get bigger in the future, but that's something to think about then.

Some time after the settlement with Gurion, I was back in Krumphal territory with May. It was autumn and the farmers should have been talking about harvesting, but as I looked down from the small hill, I could see that the fields were covered with salt, and it was no longer about harvesting.

Why was there salt damage in the Krumfal area? We were able to learn about this from an old man who lives in the farmland.

About three years ago, the water from the sea suddenly began to flow back toward the river. Since then, the river has been flowing backward whenever the tide is high. At first, the farmers were very happy because they could catch fish from the sea in the river, but the water from the river was used for agriculture, and the water mixed with the sea water turned the cultivated land into a white color.

The land was already poor in terms of crops, but now the yield is even lower. In despair over such a situation, those who were engaged in agriculture managed to survive for a while with the support of Count Krumphal. However, when the head of the family was killed in a rebellion by Count Krumphal and most of the soldiers in the territory were killed, a succubus appeared.

The succubus began to entangle the men of the village and the soldiers who were in charge of the guard one after another, and to stay in the house in the forest where the headquarters of Krumphal's army was originally located, and to loot the place one after another.

"Most of the men in the village have left, so the only people in the village are old men, women and children..."

The chief of the village of Imade, located north of the lord's mansion, muttered to us without effort.

The area to the north of the pavilion is full of grasslands. If this area were to be turned into a cultivated field, the territory would grow by leaps and bounds..."

"The villages of Imade, Kulfeta, Taipan... all the villages in the territory where agriculture is practiced have salt damage and the men are gone, so it will be tough until they come back."

On the way back to the pavilion, May and I were discussing measures to be taken for the farmland. According to May, it is not enough to remove the salt from the farmland, but the problem is the salt that has accumulated in the soil. It seems to be a common sense in this world that once the land is damaged by salt, crops will not grow, and this is the reason why people in the village abandoned their farmland immediately.

"We have prepared a large amount of fertilizer that can easily grow crops, but I am not sure if it will work on these salt fields..."

No, it's too early to tell. Let's try my plan first."

From the next day on, I devoted myself to the restoration of the farmland.

First, I mobilized all available men and villagers to remove salt from the farmlands of Imade village and destroy all the irrigation canals from the river that drained the farmlands.

Meanwhile, I dig ditches in the farmland with earth magic. At the same time, I made a huge hole to pool the water that flowed from the ditch. Then, after the salt has been removed, I put up wards over the farmland. After about two weeks of work, I watched as a heavy rain fell inside the warding.

The rain soaked into the earth and the overflowing water fell into the ditch and flowed directly into the huge pool. For three days I made a huge rectangular block of earth, hardened by earth magic to be harder than concrete, and dropped it into the sea to make a breakwater.

When the rain stopped and the pools of water in the ditch filled up to the brim, creating something like a lake, I released all the wards and ordered May to spread the fertilizer she had created over the entire cultivated land. After that, I dug a trench from the lake so that the accumulated water would flow into the sea.

Then I go to the upper reaches of the river and dig holes with earth magic. There is a large amount of underground water around here, and I thought that it could be used for agricultural purposes. After digging for a while, a large amount of water gushes out. They dug holes around the area and searched for water springs. A considerable amount of water gushed out, and the place began to look like a lake. I dug a trench, soaking wet, and connected it to the first trench I had dug. Then another river was formed.

"Hey, guys! Take water for agriculture from the newly created river..."

Everyone pulls a canal from the river as they see fit. May seems to have finished spreading fertilizer, and the farmland is covered with black soil.

"This is... good soil. This is good soil for growing crops.

"Try it once."

"But we don't have the numbers..."

"Grandpa, we'll help you."

"...Then you are welcome. You can sleep in any available house.

Thus, agriculture in the village of Imade started on the road to recovery.

I then carried out the same kind of salt removal work in the villages of Kulfeta and Taipan to restore the cultivated land. During the course of the work, there were some difficult construction projects, and I collapsed twice due to lack of magical power. Each time, May was given a minimum amount of M! I was cuddled on my knees until I recovered my M! It's nothing to hide, but I don't tell Rico. I'll do it too!" I feel that he might say, "I'm not going to be able to do that," and with Rico, I might end up in a kneeling position. No, I never did anything erotic with May. It's just, you know, something to tickle a man's fancy. Asking Riko to do it for you is not very exciting. Kneeling pillow is a very deep thing!

By the way, we decided to use the mansion where the succubus lived as a lord's mansion. Although it is dangerous in the forest, the gurions guard the mansion and the harpies are more comfortable in the forest, so it was moved there.

Originally, it was a day's ride from the forest to the lord's mansion, but if we use the road that the gurions are using, it is a straight line and we can get there in 30 minutes on horseback. Therefore, I made the road leading to the forest mansion with great difficulty, making full use of earth magic.

And as for the remaining old lord's mansion, I have already thought of a way to utilize it.

Yes, we will use it as a hotel.
