"Hahaha… Narita, don't say that, you're not stupid, it's just that your thinking doesn't make sense. If you think carefully, and put yourself in the shoes of a commoner, you should be able to easily guess what Hikaru is thinking."
Hearing that, Narita nodded and continued: "So... how do you make those kids sit still?"
Shala laughed and said, "Hm… this is a very simple matter. As long as you give them a purpose."
"Purpose?"
She explained: "Um! I showed those kids the benefits of studying, of course, I also used a few other tricks. Hehehe… I won't tell you those tricks."
"Only when you become a teacher, and teach the kids, will you be able to find the right methods for you."
Narita heard that and didn't ask anymore. He felt a little nostalgic for the old days, it seemed… he had found a glimmer of hope for himself.
"Shala, what do you live for?"
"Heh?! Why are you asking?"
Narita shook his head and said, "Nothing."
"Hahaha… I just want to serve master."
"Hm?! Don't you have another dream?"
Shala smiled and said, "That is my dream. I have been dead for a long time, however, when I died, I still wanted to see what this world would look like in the future."
"Master brought me back to life again, and he helped me see the future of this world. He even gave me magical abilities and I learned a lot of new things."
"That's why, master's dream is my dream."
Narita sighed, it seemed that Hikaru was very popular with the girls. Strange, why was it that every girl around him is so talented.
He remembered the queens of the great kingdoms. The only things they could do is try to look more attractive, try to wear more expensive jewelry and to appear more luxurious.
Few of those queens were able to manage or assist the monarchs in managing the kingdom.
But the girls around Hikaru were different, every girl was extremely talented, even Fellea and Saraya were Fallen Angels.
Wisdom, strength, diplomacy..etc. The girls around Hikaru were all full of these elements.
He was a bit jealous of Hikaru. If in the past, when he was still alive, if he had been supported by such talented people, perhaps his era would have been extremely glorious.
His era might have even lasted several hundred thousand years.
However, that is only if…
Narita was beginning to feel like this place wasn't that bad either. What if… he founded a church in this place?
That's right… Why don't I establish a church in this territory? Even though those women are not my women, and they won't help me.
However, if Hikaru agrees to this plan, surely they would have to help me build the church.
Great!
Narita thought and nodded, Shala who was walking beside him felt like he was a bit… strange.
Okay… even though he's weird, he's also a person of high status in the past. Although Shala didn't know how high Narita's status was, she could tell that Narita's status would probably not be lower than the King of a high-ranking kingdom.
"That is…" Narita suddenly saw the villagers planting a stone pillar about three meters high.
He had seen those pillars in the "Stone" workshop that Hikaru had shown him this morning.
"Ah!" Shala explained: "master wanted to illuminate the road so he installed street lights."
"Street lights? What's that? An item with a lighting function like the Misty Lamp?" Narita asked.
"Hm… actually it only has a lighting function, it can't dispel the fog like the Misty Lamp." Shala explains: "Master thinks that everyone goes to work in the morning and afternoon, and if everyone stays at home at night, it would be very boring."
"That's why he wanted to light up the whole city with street lights. That way, in the evening, people can walk around the kingdom."
"If someone goes out at night, they won't have to worry about bad guys watching, as everywhere is lit by street lights."
Narita felt extremely confused: "Bored? Take a walk?"
"Um! Hmm… master also intends to build shops that operate at night such as a restaurant, a coffee shop, etc.."
"Restaurant? Coffee shop? What's that?" Narita found the words difficult to understand, as he had never heard of them.
Shala laughed and said, "Ah! I don't know what they are either, but I look forward to their appearance. Do you know that nowadays, people often go to the supermarket at night?"
"Take a walk?" Narita shook his head: "No! I thought that after working all day long, they probably won't go out at night or try to level up if they're people who can use magic."
"Haizz… you look like an autistic old man." Shala pouted, her eyes filled with pity as she looked at Narita.
Narita: "..."
He felt as if he was not only the stupidest person here, but he was also the most pitiful person here. Maybe… he was more pitiable than the mixed-bloods.
"You… What are those eyes."
"can't you read my expression." Shala pouted and said, "You are so pitiful. It's like you haven't experienced joy, there is no one more pitiful than you."
"You..." Narita didn't know what to say: "I have no need to go for a walk. It's just… What is Hikaru doing all this for? Isn't it alright as long as they do a good job? If they go out too much at night, it will be difficult to control them."
"Haizzz." Shala shook her head and said, "I said you should put yourself in someone else's shoes to think, don't you remember?"
"Not everyone lives as selfishly as you do. Intelligent creatures, especially humans, are social creatures."
"If their life consists of working and staying at home, what's the point? After suffering is joy, they have worked hard, they need to be relieved at night to make their mind more comfortable."
"Evening activities are necessary, in the future, master will surely show you a city that never sleeps."
"A city that never sleeps?" Narita mumbled, he was starting to get a little interested in this.
However, he asked: "But… where does the energy for those street lights come from? You must know that energy or lighting items consume a lot of energy and are extremely precious."
"If Hikaru used them often, and even used them in buildings like… hm… the restaurant, or coffee shop you just mentioned it would take a lot of energy."
"Hahaha… I don't know." Shala said confidently.
Narita: "..."
"It's the first time I've seen someone as confident as you say 'I don't know'."
"I don't know means I don't know. But that doesn't mean we won't know later either. Maybe… when those street lights work, you'll understand where the energy for them to work comes from."
Hearing Shala's words, Narita nodded, and he and she talked about many things. For the first time, Narita felt that talking to someone was extremely enjoyable.
It was so interesting that he just wanted to talk to Shala more.
…
Meanwhile, Hikaru had just arrived at the army barracks, and the Harpy had begun to gather at the training ground.
At this time, the Harpies had become extremely mature and disciplined soldiers.
When he saw the Harpy group, he nodded and said, "Hm… well done, Tsuraguki."
Tsuraguki stood beside him, smiling proudly, she held her head high. Her arms which were crossed in front of her chest made her two mountains even more visible.
Behind them, 5 people of the Blood-Elf race were also standing in this place.
"Hm…" Hikaru said, "You guys did a great job last time. There were no mistakes in the rescue process, congratulations."
The Harpy group smiled, although they didn't think they would be praised by Hikaru, after completing the quest, they also felt extremely happy.
Now, as they were being praised by Hikaru this made them even happier.
ƥandasnovel.com "Although this is your first mission, and you haven't been training for long, you still successfully completed the assigned task, so I will give you a reward."
The Harpies and the others were filled with anticipation. Although before, they received Tier SSR weapons, along with great equipment such as glasses that see through the fog, clothes that increase defense…etc.
But those things all belonged to the military, not their own equipment.
That's why, when Hikaru mentioned the reward, they were extremely looking forward to it.
Hikaru also didn't say anything more, he raised his hand, and a beam of light enveloped the entire 21 Harpies.
The blinding light lasted for a minute and then disappeared, revealing 21 normal girls with wings on their backs.
They looked very similar to Angles, however, their wings were brown rather than white. Besides… on the wing joints and fish joints, it looks like there used to be a hand like a Bat's wing.
"This is…" Harprite felt extremely surprised. She raised her hands in front of her face, and examined it carefully.
Harprite even clenched her fist, and opened it repeatedly to see if she was dreaming.
"This is my gift to you. With this form, you can be more comfortable in moving, training, and fighting."
"Hopefully next time you will try harder and bring more glory to us."
"COUGH!!!"
"COUGH!!!"
"COUGH!!!"
"COUGH!!!"
…
As soon as Hikaru finished speaking, the Harpy group shouted with pride and joy. That's right, they were evolved into Tier SSR by Hikaru.
Upon sensing their strength and ease of movement, they felt they could defeat any enemy, and complete any mission.
"Um! However, an army cannot lack souls, this will be your souls."
Hikaru clapped his hands, and Tsuraguki who was standing beside him immediately turned serious. She approached the clock tower, then waved her arms.
On the top of the clock pillar suddenly appeared a stone pillar about 3 meters high, on the top of that stone pillar there was a flag fluttering in the wind.
The flag was red, with a yellow circle on the background, and around that yellow circle were countless rays like sun rays.
That's right, it was an image like the sun.
Hikaru smiled and said, "This is our national flag. As long as the flag is still there, the kingdom is still alive. You must treat the national flag as your soul, as your blood, as your life."
