Boom, boom, boom-!
“Excuse me! It’s getting in the way of work?! Sit next to me…… and look at the takeover report in advance! Don’t bother me!”
Ram Hwayeon’s voice woke Leeha up.
There was nothing to be solved by worrying anyway.
He had no choice but to pay back the mistake he made to Shin Nara now by being nicer to her some day!
“……Right. I’d rather work.”
Forget about it for now. Focusing on one thing and missing the other is the worst thing a sniper could do!
“Huh?”
“I will work. All tips and know-how related to the operation of Gaza City! And even your opinions about the future development! Tell me everything, Ram Hwayeon-ssi! All of it! I will study until my head explodes!”
Leeha sat down on the chair next to Ram Hwayeon.
“What should I read first?”
‘Oh, that•- That, that. If you learn the commands from the NPC steward-”
“Good. I will memorize them all.”
Leeha aggressively grabbed the pile of paper and started reading it. Without even knowing that his forearm was touching Ram Hwayeon’s forearm.
Ram Hwayeon while glancing at Leeha was sending signals to him as their arms were slightly brushing together.
Of course, it was not something that Leeha would notice.
At this moment the promise with Shin Nara was broken and the promise with Ram Hwayeon was confirmed, and Leeha was engrossed in studying.
4 days in reality was 20 days in Middle Earth.
Leeha read all of Ram Hwayeon’s reports related to the management of Gaza City and the report on “hatchlings” provided by the Holy Grill located in Gaza City.
“Lord-nim, this is the report for this week’s revenue and expenditure you mentioned.”
“Ah! You’ve worked hard, Paytor-ssi. This week’s expenses are…. That’s right, when did you say that the repair of the wall would be finished? I think it was recently.”
Leeha skillfully flipped through the report and checked the figures. It had already been more than 15 days since Ram Hwayeon left.
It was the end of the second week which Leeha handled things alone. This was already his second practical experience.
“I’m on my way after checking it just now, but Chief Engineer Bottleneck said that it could take another day or two-”
“Okay. Then, look for a place for a smithy where minerals can come and go smoothly. A place where the Chief Engineer can use as an office and workshop at the same time. You can ask Chief Engineer Bottleneck what equipment he needs and buy them.”
“The price-”
“You don’t have to worry about the price. Buy them all, Peytor-ssi. Well, starting with the bellows, all the necessary equipment and tools!”
“I understand, my lord. Chief Engineer Bottleneck will also be grateful for the lord’s full support.”
“Haha, I have to. If I didn’t do so, they would go back to Hell Anvil. So, please take care of them for me.”
“That is uncertain. Then I will go now.”
More than half a month of practice. Of course, it means that he had enough time to get acquainted with the NPC in charge of management, the NPC Ram Hwayeon called ‘steward’.
Peytor bowed to Leeha and walked out of the office.
‘Phew……. 15,418 gold spent and 15,3337 gold earned this week. Well. There won’t be any cut this week.’
The city was still in the negative. It had no choice but to be because the city functions were not fully restored and only the spending continued.
Of course, Leeha had no shortage of personal properties. “
The five items he got from Kuzgunak’sh’s lair hadn’t been sold yet.
He had quite a bit of gold he received from Pei Wu.
There was also a weekly settlement steadily received from Castle Dale. Leeha also sold the ‘miscellaneous items’ he got from hunting.
The total amount of Leeha’s assets in Middle Earth was around 12,000 gold.
In the meantime, due to the fluctuations in the international market, the value of Middle Earth’s gold had decreased slightly.
‘I can sell it if I need to, but…… it’s not that urgent. My operation fee and my mom’s shop will have to be ready soon, so I can’t use this money carelessly.’
Even in terms of the flow, the situation is not urgent enough for Leeha to sell his items.
The city is now 93% repair.
Even at this level, it has almost caught up with the amount of expenditure.
Once the repair reaches 100%, the city will have profits and refill the city’s vault which is currently empty.
‘It wouldn’t have happened if I was alone.’
How much money did Ram Hwayeon spend until 2 weeks ago?
After Leeha took over the management of Gaza City, he did not know how many times he was surprised after seeing the revenue and expenditures of the previous weeks for the first time.
‘The income was 1,350 and the expenditure was 28,300…. It was bankruptcy. To the point where I wanted to sell the city and run away. No, it didn’t even need to be sold. I just had to give up the right to be the lord of the castle. To manage the operation under such circumstances… she really is amazing.’
Ram Hwayeon opened the vault and devoted herself to the restoration of the by pouring out all the money that Gaza City had collected appropriately.
The heroic items brought by Blaugrun were also very helpful, but it goes without saying that if was effective because it was used unsparingly, leaving only 47 gold in the Gaza City’s vault.
That quick judgment and drive. It was a decision that clearly contained her philosophy of making money flow out, not holding onto it.
“We will break even next week, and maybe we could even profit the week after that? Ah, I have to take care of the knights too. I heard that the level of the NPC guild goes up the more you spend on training and equipment…… If I want to level them up more, it will take another 4 to 5 weeks before I could make a profit.”
The Gaza Knights, carefully selected by Byulcho, had grown from level 150 to 200. Normally, it would have been enough, but Leeha did not want to let his guard down.
It could be said that the Demon King’s agents had disappeared, but Leeha knew that there would be some kind of danger that would come.
‘We’ll have to go to the new continent to catch Bluebeard… but it isn’t certain. He might come back. Are we going to cross, or will they cross? As long as there’s no guarantee that they will move or not, I must be fully prepared. The number of knights should be increased according to the situation, and their level should be raised to the highest level available right now.’
Leeha opened his friend’s window and looked at Fernand’s location.
He was in the Shazzrasian Federation at the moment. After staying at Fibiel and Minis for more than a week each, Fernand moved again.
“Ughhh! It’s tough. It would be more convenient for users to be able to level up by spending money just by spending money just like the knight NPCs. Isn’t that right, Blaugrun-ssi?”
Leeha opened his character window while talking to Blaugrun.

This time, there were no special achievements or stats, so Leeha invested all of it to his agility without any worries.
His agility is now 2,734.
[Kyu, kyuu~ kyuu]
Blaugrun, who was lying face down on the other side of the desk in the office, shook his head while looking down.
“Haha, are you saying you can’t be bothered to think about such boring things?”
[Kyu]
And then it nodded. Over the past 15 days or so, Leeha wasn’t just getting used to city management.
Flap, flap, flap-!
Blaugrun flapped his small wings and flew toward Leeha. Now Leeha knew what each gesture meant.
“Cough, do you know that you have been eating too often? If you eat a lot and grow up quickly, it would be good for me too, but…”
[Kyuu! Kyuu!]
“Aack! Okay, okay, wait. You know I can’t get it out of nowhere, right?”
Leeha opened his bag and took out several items.
The method Leeha managed to find by combining the data on the hatchling he obtained from the Holy Grill and the information he obtained through Bailephus and Bahamut!
“One rare health potion, two special status ailments potions…… with this as the base of the sauce- hmm, the only ingredients left are a couple of strings of snake meat, so this is fine, right? [Seasoned snake skewers], call?”
[Kyu! Kyukyu!］
Blaugrun nodded vigorously and was drooling.
Leeha laughed while looking at the bronze dragon.
‘R-really. Even if the hatchling was a dragon, the only way for it to grow was to eat……’
Of course, the difference was that the food was expensive items that ordinary users would not be able to afford, and Leeha had to give it frequently, but fortunately for Leeha, it was not that burdensome.
Most importantly, this fact was emphasized by the fact that although a ‘rare’ potion must be added, Leeha received 2 free rare potions per day!
‘When he becomes an adult he won’t need to eat, but at the hatchling and juvenile levels, they still need to feed… I need to feed him not only for growth but also for magic.’
That was the reason why Blaugrun stumbled and almost collapsed last time with a single use of recovery magic, and disappeared from Leeha’s side.
His partner didn’t feed him, so he had to feed himself!
Even with such a body and condition, the act of bringing items while even using subspace magic for Leeha can be said as the bronze dragon’s good characteristics.
“Now, let’s go to the kitchen!”
[Kyuuuu-! Kyuuu, kyuuu-!]
Blaugrun flapped its small wings and circled above Leeha’s head. Another passed on Leeha’s schedule in Gaza City like this.
Leeha immersed himself in his work to forget distracting thoughts, but that did not stop the time.
Saturday came quickly.
“Quick, quick, push fast! If we miss this bus, the next one will be in 15 minutes. We will be late then!”
“So hyung, your hair- it wasn’t time to get your hair done!”
Creeeeak-!
The wheels on Leeha’s wheelchair slid down as if it was drifting. It was normal for the person behind the wheelchair to feel his thighs exploding.
In order to postpone their appointment with Bobae and Shin Nara, Leeha had to inform Kijung and also had to tell him the reason.
‘Who? Ram Hwayeon? Is that the Ram Hwayeon we know?’
‘Yeah. Help me out. It isn’t convenient if I want to get to Incheon Airport……’
‘No, that- wait, ung-ah. Ram Hwayeon is in Korea? Is she with Ram Hwajung? Don’t you remember how much I suffered from those girls?’
‘T-that’s an old thing.’
‘……I still clearly remember the time Ram Hwajung froze my head……. I still remember the feeling of my neck snapping like a toy……’
However, there was no way the kind-hearted Kijung could refuse Leeha.
That’s why right now, on a Saturday morning, to catch the bus to the airport, he came to Leeha’s house and hurriedly ran.
“Oh, oh- here comes the bus, here comes the bus!”
“We want to ride! Ride! Driver-ajussi! Wait a minute! Stop!”
The two young men, who started a fuss early in the morning, managed to get on the airport bus.
After folding the wheelchair and putting it in the luggage compartment, Kijung, with the help of the bus driver, lifted Leeha and sat him down on the chair.
“I’m sorry, Kijung-ah. If I save a little bit more, I could pay for the surgery-”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Eong-ah, what are you sorry for? Just treat me later!”
“Still, thanks to you, I will actually meet Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajung. Isn’t it?”
“Tsk. What can I do about it? I’ll just take you there and go home. I wasn’t even invited, so what if I am there?”
“Yes, but…… anyway, thank you and sorry.”
Kijung’s role was literally Leeha’s movement aid. Leeha could not say anything because he knew it as well.
“But eong-ah, did Ram Hwayeon really call? Did she really want you to buy her for when she went to Korea?”
“Hmm, well. Yes.”
“You broke your promise to Shin Nara-nim because of that? This, eong-ah paid attention to his hairstyle too?”
Even at the moving Kijung looked at Leeha strangely.
Leeha only shook his head with an absurd expression because he clearly knew what the thoughts in those eyes were.
“Hey! Don’t think anything weird. You know, this time Gaza City got smashed and suffered greatly. Of course, I am really grateful to her…”
