 Chapter 9. New Inventions

"Oh, peace is wonderful...... Leisure is wonderful......"

"Thanks to Noah-sama, Master's physical and mental condition has improved. Go ahead."

I took a sip of the tea that Galatea had made for me at the mansion. It's a good thing that Noah has taken care of all the hellish paperwork so far, so I can enjoy my tea like this.

“Noah's personality has its quirks, but I'm glad she's doing well. You haven't seen anything bad about her, have you?”

"Yes, I have. She's got that look and a calm personality..... She's a little passionate about me, but she's asked me to bathe with her a lot the other day....."

"Seriously..... it's pretty cold right now... Aside from you, Noah will catch a cold....."

When I said that, Galatea laughed as if she remembered that moment.

Noah who is the subject of the story seems to have a good reputation amongst the people of the territory because of her exterior good looks. They call her ‘the beauty of Asgard’.

Although she wanted to keep it a secret, the fact that she was the daughter of the Cassius family was already known, but everyone was careful to treat her as just Noah, which was an unspoken agreement.

“It seems Edward is going to bring some immigrants with him next time, so we'll be busy again...... And we should have a party soon.”

“Well, the wounds from the last battle have finally healed.”

I nodded at Galatea's words as I looked at Edward's letter. The wounds are not just the damage to the buildings. It also refers to the emotional scars of the people in the area.

Everyone was finally getting back to normal. It's time to bring in some fresh air.

“Anyway if we’re going to hold a party… will it be at our mansion?”

“Since it’s clear that I’m the one who defeated Kyle, I'm certain the nobles and merchants will want to see how much I'm worth. No, it's not just me, but also the value of this land of Asgard......"

“I see… everyone is interested in Master who invented many things and defeated his superior opponent. I’m happy!”

It's true that compared to the time when I was an shunned, it's nice to know that people are paying attention to me. But it's a double-edged sword. If I do something devious, my reputation which hasn’t been decided yet will be ruined...... however, even if we stand out too much due to the strength we have, we’ll be beaten and be vigilant in vain. After all, I have the blood of my father who loves war.

In addition to weapons, Asgard's specialty is to give a good impression....... I wonder if there are any inventions that have not yet been shown to other people.

While I was thinking about this, I heard a knock and gave the permission for the person to enter. Noel entered.

“Master, could you come outside? Finally, the prototype of the steam pump has been completed and I would like to show it to you.”

“Oh, Noel, thank you for your hard work. Your eyes look really dark.”

“Ufufu, it’s okay! I’ll just eat some potatoes and be fine in no time! Please come quickly. I'll be waiting for you!"

Noel replied a bit hyped up and quickly left. I wonder if she's out of sorts after being up all night. ......

When I told Bowman about the steam pump, he was very excited and decided to make one and since it's not his area of expertise, he took Noel, who noticed the potential of steam, along with him to Souzi's workshop as support.

“Master you can go now. I’ll take care of the rest. It seems that Noel is working hard in various ways, so please give her a compliment."

"Oh, thank you, I'll go check it out.”

After replying Galatea, I headed out of the house for a change of pace.

When I heard a thud, something shiny which looked humanoid and made out of mithril was walking. Bowman, Noel and Noah were talking happily.

I mean, what is that golem? I've never seen a metal golem before! Normally, golems are made of stone or something!
