Chapter 194: Dragon’s Nest, Experiment, Change, Enhancement (2)
“Sh*t.”
I arrived at Lindel, but I couldn’t find it in myself to rest comfortably. It was because the party members were still out hunting, and I was in dire need of help.
I immediately visited manager Kim Mi-young.
I had to check if what I saw was true. The almost completed nest was so absurd that it was jaw-dropping.
“Sh*t!”
Not much time had passed since I left Lindel. If I were to think about it with common sense, it was impossible that the building was already nearing completion. No, to be precise, it was not impossible. This place had a different background from the Earth, after all.
If you put high-quality personnel to do the job, then it was a whole different story.
Of course, if one were to hire wizards or craftsmen with skills, the reality was that it would cost a lot more. Looking at the beautiful architecture that resembled a piece of art, it seemed as if all craftsmen had been gathered.
Probably, more than one or two people were employed. Otherwise, there would have been no way that the central axis would have already been completed.
‘Fuck!!!’
In order to make the nest, they seemed to have hired all the wizards of heroic-grade or higher, as well as blacksmiths and even production workers.
The labor cost itself must have been very expensive. However, the bigger problem is the material that makes up the nest.
In the first place, it was questionable whether that amount of mithril ore was available in Lindel.
Considering that mithril ore was imported from other cities and Yeongju, the transportation cost would have been unimaginable.
They must have even used griffons!
Even if they refrained themselves, it would already be costing astronomical amounts of money.
Of course, my personal fortune was immense, but even if I spent all my fortune, it would never match the money that went into building that nest, especially if the interior had been decorated.
‘Crazy woman. Crazy woman!’
With this, I had forgotten about Park Deokgu and Yuno Kasugano in the black world for a bit.
When I opened the administration office door in a hurry, I saw the face of manager Kim Mi-young, looking surprised.
“Vice Guild Master.”
Of course, she has something to say about this ridiculous situation.
Manager Kim Mi-young is not stupid. There is no way she will allow to put that amount of money to build the nest. I mean, she couldn’t control the situation either. I had to open my mouth immediately.
“Kim Mi-young manager, that nest…”
“F-first of all, I want to apologize, Vice Guild Master.”
“I need to get all the details.”
“Yes, so…”
The story was a bit concise. She explained that Dialugia immediately commissioned the nest’s construction after Kim Hyunsung and I went to Lindel.
Of course, the work progressed quickly because I had already told manager Kim Mi-young that we would make a nest.
“At first, I listened to Vice Guild Master and didn’t pay much attention to the budget…”
“The budget kept increasing?”
“Yes. That’s right.”
The problem was when Dialugia started directly intervening on the construction site.
She insisted on completing the nest as she intended by continuing to give additional orders as if she wasn’t satisfied. Of course, everything had to go her way.
There was a limit to the budget that could be organized, and I must have already used my personal property and the property of Blue.
At this point, when manager Kim Mi-young realized that something was wrong, she and several party members tried to stop Dialugia, and as I thought, they couldn’t.
“I thought that it should not be left as it was, so I cut off the money line as soon as possible, but…”
“…”
“That… Dialugia herself started to get money.”
“How?”
“She went to each guild and borrowed money directly from her name.”
“You couldn’t have stopped her.”
“Yes. Strictly speaking, the guild cannot force Dialugia-nim to exercise any rights. She isn’t someone who can be controlled physically, so what we could do was to put pressure on other guilds not to issue bonds to Dialugia.”
That was a great decision.
If you can’t stop her from borrowing money, you could stop the guild from lending her the money.
“Of course, this plan did not go smoothly either. When the guilds in Lindel didn’t issue bonds to Dialugia-nim, she quickly realized that we were doing something… She then announced that she would sell kins and scales to humans throughout Lindel.”
“Was it sold?!”
It is impossible to sell anything from her body without my permission. I had no choice but to realize why the situation had reached this point.
“No… To prevent that, we had no choice but to allow her to borrow money from other guilds.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
“Let’s see how much it is.”
Manager Kim Mi-young slowly handed out the documents to me. The more I checked it, the more I felt like passing out. I had no choice but to realize that I should praise the administration team, including manager Kim Mi-young, rather than reproach them.
It can be seen that they managed the funds tightening the belt.
Come to think of it, her dark circles almost reached her chin, as if she hadn’t slept for a few days. The same was true for the others. I could have been sure that these days were hell for them, too.
“Thank you, Manager Kim Mi-young.”
“No, Vice Guild Master. Rather, I want to say sorry.”
I couldn’t blame the guild’s administrative team. Strictly speaking, this was my fault. I felt like I’ve worn her out before I even had the chance to study.
I was speechless. I had gotten myself into a pile of debt in no time at all.
Of course, some profits would continue to come in. However, the black market in the underground of Castle Rock was still under being prepared.
I felt a bit bitter, but how could I recover if Dialugia was still there?
Of course, I had to go to Dialugia. I had to know the welfare of the nest.
As soon as I got onto White Paul, Jung Hayan looked at me. She obviously wanted to come together, but I couldn’t let her. After all, this was definitely a family affair.
“Hayan.”
“Yes, Oppa…”
“I will start researching tomorrow. You should start preparing. Perhaps you’ll have to stay overnight with me in the lab for a few days.”
“Yes… Yes!”
For now, I could leave Jung Hayan with this. I then flew quickly towards the nest.
‘That’s cool… Did she pour out magic stones, too?’
Its sheer size would be enough to overwhelm people, and it seemed like it was not only magic stones that were used. Many artifacts were also in place.
As I entered the nest, I could see a very colorful interior.
The night lights embedded in the sky were sprinkled with brilliant light, and even objects whose purpose was unknown were visible.
I was not a dragon, so I was not entirely sure, but perhaps each of them had their own use.
It was then that a voice called out to me. It was obvious who it was. When I turned my head and looked, I could see Dialugia approaching me.
“You came back quickly.”
“Where is Tol To-ri?”
“He’s still sleeping. More than that, I have something I want to show you.”
“You made this so fast…”
My anger once again rose to the surface. However, I realized that Dialugia looked the happiest than I had ever seen her ever since she had come here.
I would look like that, too, if it were me. Anyone could see that this place was beautiful.
It even had its own artistic landscape. There were also ponds and trees in the cave, so what else did I need to say? The resources were enough for them to be called lakes and forests.
“I think it’s amazing what human magic can do.”
‘Fuck…’
“I didn’t think we could create an environment like this in the nest.”
‘She looks so happy…’
What she was feeling was the complete opposite of what I was currently feeling.
“Actually, since I have to live with you, I wanted to discuss things with you in further detail, but I thought you were busy… Tol To-ri also needs a big nest.”
“I wasn’t very busy. You could have consulted me at once.”
“No. I think I had been a little sharp last time. It hit me how high your position is in the human world. There were many things that I couldn’t solve by myself, but by putting your name on it, I was able to realize what you told me before.”
“I see…”
“I was able to realize why you could provide a safe nest. Ah. Of course, I would like you to restrain yourself a little from going out too much… You need to focus on Tol To-ri, too… Anyway, it seems as if you’ve worked hard.”
Honestly, my lips were trembling. I had come here, completely ready to burst out at her for wasting so much money.
But for now, I felt like I could tolerate it. This was because she suddenly became kinder, the one who had treated me so coldly up until I went to the capital.
‘She is a treasure.’
Dialugia was indeed a treasure. Even she was realizing, little by little, her worth.
Although she robbed my entire fortune and even made debts, it was not bad overall if I could manage to look good with owning such a nest.
Anyway, many things could be obtained with little research. The money will come in eventually. She would be the key for me to earn astronomical amounts of money and would be responsible for my class change as well as the enhancement of Park Deokgu.
‘Tol To-ri’s quality of life will also improve.’
It seemed that taking this direction wouldn’t be so bad. Thinking like this made me smile.
“Ah. Come to think of it, did you say that there is something you want to show?”
“Of course. A large nest has been made, and of course, there are many things you should know about. Humans don’t know anything about dragons.”
I knew I certainly didn’t. I had initially thought that I could get a rough idea of ??the dragon’s ecology just by going around this place.
Walking around with her, I could see that there were certainly a lot of amazing things.
“It’s a food warehouse.”
“Does it need to be so big?”
“Now Dialuria is starting to eat more little by little… He will continue to take nutrients between 3 and 5 years. This is to turn all nutrition into magical power.”
“Ahhh…”
“Some of the magic of humans is a kind of magic that preserves the food for longer periods of time. Thanks to that, I think I can get a lot of help.”
“What about that forest and lake?”
“Ah, Dialuria will learn to hunt there.”
“I see.”
She didn’t spend my money on useless things as I thought. Of course, all the goods to be used by our Tol To-ri should be of the highest quality.
‘Although my chest still feels sore…’
“And this is your room.”
“You also…”
“You are Dialuria’s father. Of course, you have to think about sleeping here. I’m still ignorant of the way humans live, and I’m still not sure, but I did my best.”
‘I can’t stay here all the time, but…’
First, however, it would be correct to thank her.
“Thank you for your consideration.”
“In fact, this is what I really want to show you.”
“Yes?”
As I passed through the room of a dungeon-like structure, what I saw is a large alchemy laboratory. It was a laboratory of a size that could not be too difficult to fit in Dialugia’s original body.
‘What…’
“They said that it is indispensable. I honestly don’t like it that much, but didn’t you say you want to know about my body? In the first place, I am here with that condition, actually. I’m not sure, but by human standards, I know I’m a luxury product. You just need to know that it is my gift to you for giving me this nest.”
“Gift…”
The scale was quite large. It felt like many gold coins were spent in this particular area.
Dialugia must have ordered the construction manager to create this workshop. As she didn’t know anything about this, she must’ve struggled a little, but honestly, her efforts and consideration were admirable.
Though momentary, a question passed through my mind.
‘Is the budget correct?’
The budget that was roughly calculated with the papers and in my head was just this cave. It would not be enough to set up a workshop of this size.
“You don’t have to worry. It’s really a gift.”
“Gold is…”
“Ah. Kind humans lent the money to me.”
Fortunately, she didn’t sell her body parts.
“I was able to complete this nest with a lot of help from the guilds in Lindel, but in fact, gold alone was a little short even with that. There was a kind human being who lent money to me, and I asked for help from them.”
For some reason, an ominous feeling passed through me.
“The conditions were a bit tricky, but fortunately, I met those conditions…”
“What was the condition?”
“Unusually, there seemed to be humans who offered loans only to women. I didn’t know in detail, but I stumbled across a Player Professional Women’s Loan. As it was a gift, I don’t think I should owe it to the humans of the guild you belong to, so I made a contract for the first time. I wasn’t a player, but it seems like there’s some credit because of you.”
“What?”
“You don’t have to be so happy. It is my sincerity for you to be good to Tol To-ri in the future.”
“No, what did you say before? That… Before you said about not wanting to owe me.”
“Are you talking about player Professional Female’s Loans? Are you hearing about it for the first time?”
“Hey… I already…”
“So you know, too. Ame… Ame… I don’t remember what he said… Ah! It was lent from the guild called America Love.”
“Hey, you crazy woman!”
I had no choice but to scream the moment she said this.
