Chapter 59
On that day, Kyle's office had been turned into a battlefield.
With Kyle's help, he flew away, only to find the room full of papers.
"What's this?"
Please help me!"
"Oh, please explain it to me."
"Actually, ......."
The Cockatrice attack prompted Kyle's army to be established early, and he immediately called for recruitment, which received nearly 2,000 applications for a capacity of 300 people.
That's what percentage of the settlers .......
"I know it's proof that Kyle is loved, but do you want to increase the capacity?"
"No, it will put pressure on the budget."
"That's right, soldiers are money-eaters."
Basically, soldiers are provided with food, clothing, shelter, equipment, and salaries. Considering training and other things, the budget for one soldier is not half as large.
We can't afford to increase the number of troops half-heartedly.
"And I had no idea how to sort ......."
Alphard, who was working on paperwork with Kyle, also looked up.
"I'm going to be in charge of the army, but I've never chosen anyone from outside of nobles and knights, so I'm having a hard time.
"Well, Alphard belonged to the Holy Knights."
There will be a difference between recruiting an elite army and recruiting ordinary soldiers.
I picked up a stack of papers in front of Alphard and flipped through them.
Professions ...... farmer, lumberjack, hunter, adventurer.
"Hmm? Are there any adventurers?"
"Oh, there are quite a few, maybe they want citizenship."
"Wouldn't it be easy to get Golden Dawn citizenship?"
Normally, the only way to get citizenship is to be born in the town or accumulate money, but citizenship in the pioneer village of Golden Dawn is fairly easy to obtain.
Basically, you can earn by having a residence and having a regular job, or by buying a house.
Moreover, there is also a room rental for those who wish to settle, so it is really easy to get citizenship.
"At the moment, we don't treat adventurers as regular jobs, although we welcome more adventurers."
Certainly, some of the adventurers have a Mr./Ms. who changes bases one after another. It may be difficult to define a regular job.
But I didn't think that adventurers would become soldiers for citizenship.
"This is my opinion as a former adventurer, but I think that most of the adventurers who applied probably like this Golden Dawn and want to change jobs to protect it.
I can understand if this is a low-rank adventurer who can't eat because of lack of ability, but as far as I can see from the application documents, it seems that there are also reasonably high-rank adventurers in the mix.
"First of all, let's get rid of the adventurers, and then we need to get rid of some combat experience."
"Okay."
"Thank you, brother."
"I see."
Persia watched with a frown as she and Kyle laughed together.
◆
The second city wall, which had not been completed, was completed.
All buildings were now protected by alchemy fortified rock walls.
During the attack of the cockatrices, the completed part was not damaged, so it is a relief to have this wall.
Today Li Fan and Kyle. And I'm going around with Persia.
"The north gate is closed now because it faces the river, and the west, east and south gates will be open until nightfall."
"You're going to create a small area outside the north gate so that it's completely adjacent to the river, right?"
"Yes, we are currently working with the Building Guild to see if we can build a bridge over this great river. If we build a bridge, it will be a gateway to the bridge, and if we can't, we will build a port."
"It's exactly as reported, Mr./Ms. is really doing their best."
I'll tell everyone!"
"Thank you, and what about the Third City Wall?"
"We're in the process of building the foundations, because the third wall is on a different scale."
"That's right."
Even the current Second City Wall is not as large as the royal capital, but the Third Wall is many times larger. It is large enough to easily fit three royal cities. It would have taken decades to build it, but with the trick of alchemy fortification, it will be completed in a fairly short period of time.
Kyle inspected the completed walls and gates with satisfaction.
A red bipedal lizard ran up to me. It would be Alphard's Red Flame.
"Kyle!"
"Alphard, what's wrong?"
"It's a letter, a letter has come!"
It's clear from Alphard's panic that this isn't an ordinary letter.
"I'm going back to the office, Brother Kraft should come with me."
"Got it."
We hurried back to Kyle's office.
As Kyle sits down at his desk, the butler, who has been sent by the Marquis for an extra mandate, respectfully holds out a letter.
Kyle's eyes peeled at the emblem on the letter.
"This is ...... Kingdom Seal"
Isn't it from the Marquis?"
"No, it's a letter from the royal capital."
Kyle trembled slightly, as he opened the letter and read it over and over again.
"What did it say?"
Carefully folding the letter and placing it on the desk, Kyle looked up.
"A delegation will be sent from the royal capital."
