A week has passed in Earth time. Five weeks had passed in our territory, and ten weeks had passed in Gate 2.
The nunchi developed the mine by employing monsters called kobolds living in the mine. Interestingly, kobolds are marked as slaves, not territories. Among them, a smart guy was appointed as the captain, and he gave them the amount to mine every day.
Curiously, kobolds were slaves capable of not only mining but also the smelting process. What they lack.
Corak! Corak!
It was food. For food, I bought more feed from the company and supplied it to them. At first, I ate like crazy, but then I always filled the food distribution table with feed, so at some point, I only ate when I was hungry.
It’s like training puppies to feed themselves. Kobolds were not as hideous as they appear in the novels. Is there a cute corner?
They may seem that way because they are hard-working kids in my mine. However, mines are not the only mines. There is a hunting ground like a dungeon in it. Most of them are Minotaurs.
According to the nunchi, they are corrupt minotaurs, so it doesn’t matter if I kill them. And the guys who entered the gate before that didn’t know anything and hunted kobolds, and that’s a bad thing. Because they are workers. Perhaps that is why the Self-Defense Forces have been developing mines by grinding manpower.
“Notice.”
mmmm!
“Have you ever seen a dwarf? Are you good at making things, and you think your height is about my chest?”
dory dory.
I don’t know. There are no dwarves in this gate.
“If we’re done talking, let’s go hunting.”
father
“A shield made of mithril is very useful.”
it’s mother
“Take the beautiful blacksmith’s hammer!”
it’s a demonstration Seeing Siyeon like that, Seonwoo asks.
“Hey, isn’t your main weapon a sword? What kind of hammer is a kid with swordsmanship?”
“Ah, it’s a concept. When you fight, fight with your sword.”
“Ah… he’s such a fun kid.”
“What is life? It’s about enjoying life.”
Of all of us, I wonder if Siyeon is the one who knows the most about life. He is always intuitive. So it seems to be the least stressful.
I started going to school two days ago, but I gave up on Typhoon’s dream of becoming a transfer student. Kids study too much. So when school is over, they fly like a dart and enter the gate.
My father is busy working outside the company, and I am on standby until the company is established, so there is no need to go to the company. Perhaps the boss knew that he was the owner of the gate and was considerate, and at the same time he had a desire to catch me.
I don’t feel the need to leave the company even though I don’t have to make it uncomfortable by taking care of my salary.
In the case of my mother, she spends most of her time inside the gate. The air is good, and above all, he is friendly with Orcs. And now, as the level of construction of the orcs has risen, they have started to build the lord’s castle, and Karak is very motivated to show him what the image of the lord’s castle is like from the outside.
“Then everyone go hunting. Notice, you know?”
mmmm!
Except for Hoya and me, Nunchi was still the strongest, so I ordered Nunchi to protect my family and Seonwoo.
Then I returned to Shiho Mansion and briefly watched Karak build the lord’s castle and headed to the forest.
Oh, and as the atrocities of the Self-Defense Forces became known in the outside world, even Japan’s move to promote the Self-Defense Forces to military ranks is eating a double curse. It is a problem that they conducted human experiments, and human experiments on their own citizens, but the gate owners around the world expressed their anger at the fact that they tried to control the gate owner by turning it into a living corpse.
As the incident became known, the gate owners in Japan began to change their nationalities. Normally, if you go to asylum, you will not be able to enter your country. But this case was special.
The world actively moved to attract gate owners residing in Japan to their countries, and a global special law was proposed that gate owners could stay in their countries even if they went into exile.
Naturally, all countries except Japan voted in favor of it. From my point of view, that would be a special law that allows them to take pictures of their feet.
But from the point of view of gate owners, it’s a good thing that there are so many more options. And I also think that the treatment of gate owners will be different in the future.
Currently, gatekeepers are restricted in their movement. Because there is no way to move your own gate. In the end, it means that it becomes difficult to go far from the gate.
Therefore, there were many cases in which people belonged to the country in which they were born just because they lived while they were born. However, because of that special law, the gate owner can go into exile in a foreign country, and if the asylum is accepted, the gate owner’s residence temporarily becomes even the land of the country to which the gate owner belongs.
Of course, the cost for that will be paid by the country, but even so, it is a profit situation. The competition between countries for gate owners begins.
“It sounds like you unintentionally gave the gatekeepers freedom.”
Nyaang.
Hoya yawns as if he is not interested and sits on my shoulder. Seeing that he can doze off on top of me while I’m moving, he’s such a great kid.
“So, where are we going today?”
Hoya in my question points in one direction.
“What is there?”
Nyan!
Noisy and go away. So I went. Then, it caught my eye that there were a lot of trolls living there.
“What did Dad do wrong?”
puck!
Noisy and hunting. So I decided to start hunting according to Hoya’s words. When I try to turn on the lights, the trolls come running madly. So it showed a bad taste. Koreans have a spicy taste.
However, the trolls come running as they are, engulfed in fire. Looking at it, the burnt area heals and new skin grows in real time. And I get goosebumps. I learned that these guys are not the ones to be treated with fire.
“uh? by the way······.”
However, I had a different thought. Being hit by fire, their movement slows down. for playing. It completely goes out and returns to normal, but before that it slows down. Of course, in the meantime, I can finish them off with a sword.
But if you think differently, wouldn’t it be possible to level up fire control more reliably?
“Again, fire control!”
The five trolls ended up in the fire hell. And I was able to raise my fire control skill to level 10. In the meantime, I continued to observe and understand the movement of fire and this and that. Then, finally, what I was looking for came into existence.
– Your understanding of fire has risen above the standard level. You can create your own fire magic.
A message from the system that your understanding of fire has risen above the threshold. I guess the reason I couldn’t use magic until now was this lack of understanding. If you think about it, that seems right.
If you think of the process of a wizard becoming a wizard in a place like a novel, it is common to receive a great theoretical education, learn how to rotate mana, and then learn elemental magic. Of course, I can’t say that reality is like fiction, but one thing is clear. The fact that many novels tell stories that way is because it makes sense.
Most of people’s imaginations are there, and there are many cases, but if you imagine learning something, a frame is created that says, ‘Maybe it should be like this.’
In other words, my understanding of mana itself was quite high, but my understanding of fire was low. In fact, it is natural that I am not a person who was in the profession of handling fire. Usually, the only fire we can come in contact with is the fire from the gas stove.
When I go somewhere to play, I think that’s why I see a bonfire and hit the bonfire. Is it to say that you are fascinated by the unfamiliar movement of fire?
Anyway, what I have to do now is to make the most basic fire magic.
“Fire Arrow!”
-Skill Fire Arrow (Active) Level 5 has been created.
After all, the understanding of Arrow itself was not that low. I’ve seen Siyeon make water arrows many times.
But why don’t they say fire arrows and fire arrows? I just say it looks like it’s there. it’s my heart And didn’t the system respond to my will and register the skill as Fire Arrow?
The 5th level fire arrow was quite strong. It burned the troll’s heart as it penetrated.
The five trolls died just like that. and.
puck!
“why!”
When I asked Hoya, Hoya sighed and pointed to my bag.
“Oh, blood.”
I burned my heart, so no blood comes out.
“Shall we go over there, Mr. Ho!”
I quickly made my way to the other trolls. And in the end, I was able to create three magics.
Fire Arrow, Fire Ball, Fire Shield. Each level is 5, 3 and 7. The reason why the fire shield was the highest seemed to be because it was in the form of a combination with a shield.
And I caught the trolls like crazy, and my level rose to level 52. I invested all in intelligence in the sense of raising firepower.
“let’s go.”
Hoya stood on my shoulder as if satisfied. It means that you can do it here today.
***
While preparing a meal at Yeongji, Seonwoo and his family return. Everyone leveled up a lot and reached level 43. And the faces are very bright. The brightest is, of course, Siyeon.
Siyeon brought a lot of mithril to the cart. There are four cows pulling the cart. Talk about a lot of that. But it doesn’t matter what to say. Because that will come back to us eventually. Is it a failure these days? It wasn’t a failure, but he started arming the orcs with things he didn’t like.
The Orcs now hunted on their own, and now they have raised their level to the mid-30s.
“You were here first.”
“Yes, I am making a cure.”
I am making a cure, or potion, with Woowing. Borrowing the wisdom of Woo-Wing, an Orc healer, he intends to create a healing potion that only appears in novels.
After all, the most important ingredient is troll blood. Coincidentally, it was possible to experiment with this and that because it contained almost a few drums of troll blood today.
“Now, why don’t we call the people of Gapyeong?”
“Ah, has the accommodation problem been resolved?”
“There were a lot of people selling their homes around here. I don’t know why. So I decided to take over all of them. in the name of the company.”
“Then, are the people in Gapyeong hired by the company?”
“right. That way, we will be comfortable with each other.”
If you don’t have your own land, you have to farm on someone else’s land. It is called peasantry. The residents of Gapyeong are currently in a state where their land is difficult to farm due to the earthquake. That’s why we decided to make a living by coming in through our gate and farming and supplying it to our company.
“I will be busy from tomorrow.”
“right. Shouldn’t we grow the estate in earnest now?”
“It should be.”
grow the estate This is something that gives strength to me and Young Ji-min, who belongs to the gate. So from now on, I plan to properly develop the power of Yeongji. To some extent, frankly.
Because the Self-Defense Forces incident made the gate owners a little more free. The little ball I shot was changing the gate society.
