The Greatest Architect

Roman monks.

It was a byproduct of civil engineering beyond the Roman Empire.

Aqua Appia, established 312 B.C.

Completed 272 B.C., Anio Vetus.

Aqua Marcia, 144 B.C.

Many other monks also lived in Rome and suburbia.

Nearly ten kilometers.

From a distance of 100 kilometers, I drew clear water.

Thanks to this, many millions of Romans have been able to receive stable drinking water for many seasons.

‘And most of those monks are still there. They're still supplying water. ’

I suddenly remembered my college days.

Lloyd recalled the club's activities at the time.

It was a club that researched and studied traditional architecture.

We explored many architectural heritage in the world, not just our old buildings.

Of course, I once investigated a Roman monk.

‘Among them, it was Aqua Julia who surprised me the most. ’

Likewise, it was a constant built in the pre-Christian era.

But so far, it's been working fine.

I was amazed to learn that the ancient heritage still supplies water to the Spanish square, to the Trevi fountains and to the old Roman times.

“Just like that, if you build a bridge well, you can relieve water worries for decades and generations to come. Of course, I need you to take care of it for a long time. ”

Lloyd frowns on the memories that come to his mind.

His hands move.

You point to a cliff that stands like a bottleneck on either side, just right.

“So if we could put the monastery here, it would be great from there to there. The terrain is good. Low altitude cars. Besides, this is no place for an earthquake. ”

“ ……. ”

“And I think I can get some stone for the monks right around the corner. Hey, you see that rock over there that's a little exposed? That's all limestone. ”

“ ……. ”

“A tree to support the arch will also be a local procurement in the nearby forest. The distance from the territory should be just right, so there shouldn't be too much work to go around. Right?"

“ ……. ”

“Hey, why aren't you talking? ”

“Lloyd,

Only with Lloyd's point can Xaviel's words be opened.

“Where did you learn all this? ”

“This is it? Construction?”

“Yes.”

Xaviel's question continues.

“I don't understand. Lloyd, who I remember, wasn't always this capable. ”

“Phew. He wasn't very good. ”

“It's true.”

Xaviel says as if to cut it short.

The Silver Hair Knight's Fact Assault continues.

“Lazy, lazy, arrogant, unwilling to learn. Oh, there was one thing you liked to learn. ”

“Could it be math? ”

“Not at all. What do you think of yourself? ”

“A skie-jealous talent? ”

“ ……. ”

“Hey, don't be so neat. ”

“Lloyd was only interested in playing. He drank, he waxed, he blurted, and he was obsessed with games of absurd drinking. ”

Xaviel sighs.

“That's why I don't understand these days. Where did Lloyd learn all this stuff? ”

“ ……. ”

Xaviel's face and eyes looking this way.

It was not a joke or a whim.

It was filled with questions, so I was asking seriously.

In fact, I felt that Xaviel had enough of a question.

‘The first Lloyd he actually experienced was just a drunken young man. ’

At one point, I pretended to have this unimaginable knowledge. However, there was not a period in between when I was working on something.

‘Obviously, you're questioning something you don't know. ’

Lloyd sighs deeply.

His expression became serious.

“How did I learn all this? ”

“Yes.”

“If I tell you, will you believe me? ”

“I'll take Lloyd's answer and judge him. ”

“Well, then……. ”

Lloyd picks his breath.

He said with a serious face.

“Korean University. ”

“Yes?”

“You said that before. Korean university. Actually, it's a place that comes out of dreams every day. I don't know why. In that dream, I'm a student at that university. Thanks to you, I learned a lot of knowledge there and made it mine. ”

“What the……. ”

“Really. So every time I wake up, I'm filled with new knowledge. All the construction I've done so far, the construction, everything that lullaby's reciting to you, that's all I've got. Can you believe it now? ”

“I don't believe it. ”

“Right? That's a lie. ”

“ ……. ”

“If you believe, it's the truth, and if you don't believe, it's a lie. Isn't that right?”

“You mean you're not going to answer properly after all. ”

“Well, maybe it's because you don't believe me. ”

Lloyd shrugs, smiling bloody.

At this point, we need to lay out the right irons, be moderately irresponsible, and be moderately audacious.

It would be wise to leave at least one hole to escape at the same time.

Maybe that's why.

Xaviel shakes his head.

“Lloyd, I don't know about this. ”

It was that moment.

Ding-dong.

[Xaviel Asrahan feels your answer is no castle.]

[Xaviel Asrahan's affection for you has decreased by 1.]

[Current relationship with Xaviel Asrahan: 9]

[Relationships with key people have slightly deteriorated, but RP cannot be driven accordingly.]

[Current RP: 1337]

‘Huh. What is it? ’

An eye-opening message.

Lloyd reads the message with a ridiculous glance.

Saying that I learned knowledge while going to college in my dreams.

It was just a random answer.

The answer was also intended to confuse Xaviel.

Of course, I didn't expect a gram to believe the answer.

Of course, Xaviel did not believe this answer as expected.

I also felt a slight resentment.

But Lloyd is such a trivial...) I didn't pay any attention to work.

His interest was in RP that was not confiscated despite only the decline in likelihood.

‘Hahaha. This is awesome! ’

Lloyd felt the clown ascend without my knowledge.

RP.

Named, Fate Points.

It was the most powerful element for me.

Even when you fought Sir Neumann, the senior knight of the territory.

Even when I was trapped in an anthill by an accident.

even when we pull out hallucinations for various projects.

It was a secret weapon that gave the most appropriate power at all times of need.

In fact, I was a little worried.

It was due to the prediction that RP would become increasingly difficult to obtain one day.

‘There is a limit to the likes you can get from others. ’

For example, the barons and Xaviel.

At first, their liking was negative.

So even though you look a little different?

I could quickly see the message that my appeal had risen.

However, the story became more and more different as I became more fond of everyone.

‘I've been having a hard time getting a crush lately. ’

Humans are surprisingly quickly becoming dull.

At first, the surprise repeats itself, making me dull.

Even if I like someone.

Once you look good, you have to look better.

If you do not, you will become immersed in familiarity and will not be able to give you much inspiration.

That was the psychological trap Lloyd was worried about.

‘Right now, I can't reach my skin because I still have a hard time liking it. But what if she later becomes incredibly fond? At that time, if you really want to increase your liking by 1, you'll have to do a lot of work. ’

Of course, you can expand your new relationship.

You can socialize with more people.

But that was also tiring.

‘I'm not that nuclear. ’

I can't always live with the love of everyone.

In other words, building his biggest weapon, RP, will become increasingly difficult.

Now, Lloyd saw a message in front of him, and he felt that his worries were resolved.

"Even if I lose my liking, I won't take away RP! ’

It was a great thing.

That is, when the preference with a particular person becomes too high.

So when it's hard to increase my appeal,

"You can intentionally lower your liking and then score again. ’

Gulp.

I drooled through my throat.

Will it work?

Lloyd looks back at Xaviel.

As a test, I lost my temper.

“Hey, are you mad that I didn't answer your question correctly? ”

“No, I'm not.”

“Well, that's right. Are you upset?”

“No way. I didn't expect much anyway. ”

Maybe it's because I just lost 1 appeal.

Somehow, Xaviel's answer felt slightly colder than usual.

But Lloyd had a titanium steel plate.

I do experiments no matter what you say.

Armed with such minds, he wet his tongue with a needle.

“I didn't expect that, Ra. Well, I'm counting on you. ”

“…… Yes? ”

Xaviel looks around like he's talking.

I looked him right in the eye.

He said while resisting the rising tingling of the duodenal ridge deep down.

“I'm glad you've always been so kind to me. I've never said it before. ”

“ ……. ”

“Hey?”

“ ……. ”

“Why are you silent again? ”

“Phew. No. I got goosebumps for a second. ”

“... Did you hate it that much? ”

“Yes.”

“Phew.”

Xaviel nods like a pumpkin.

“Wait a minute. I thought Lloyd was crazy. Or he was hit in the head, or he took some weird medicine, or he got bit by a rabid dog. ”

“Hey.”

“Of course you just made a statement, didn't you? ”

“Tsk. Let's say. ”

“What do you mean by that? ”

“Of course I made a mistake, man. ”

“Phew. I'm glad. ”

Xaviel meant it (?), I wiped my chest with a face.

At the same time, a message appeared in Lloyd's eyes.

Ding-dong.

[Xaviel Asrahan has +1 'd your appeal.]

[Current relationship with Xaviel Asrahan: 8]

[A slight improvement in relationship with the main character earned 18 RP.]

[Current RP: 1355]

“ ……. ”

Nice anyhow.

Lloyd secretly clenches his fist.

The experiment was successful.

The intention worked.

‘If I do this, I won't have to worry about getting RP in the future. ’

Being a hater on purpose and being nice again.

Or being impulsive and soothing.

That much wheat (?) to obtain a stable RP.

In that thought, Lloyd shed a sly smile.

“Yes. That's a relief. This is 18 RP. ”

“Yes?”

Xaviel stops.

“Did you just insult me? ”

“No, not at all. Never.”

“I think you did. ”

“Ah. You heard wrong. Let's get moving, by the way. I've got a lot of work to do. ”

“… OK. ”

Lloyd wakes up with his pants down.

Xaviel, who did not erase his suspicious expression, also woke up.

There was actually a lot of work to be done from now on.

And Lloyd was not in a postponed manner.

“Then let's head down that way and get back on track. ”

Where to bury the water conduit.

Where to create a stable path.

Lloyd considered all of them.

Underground scanning with surveying skills and options.

Design skills and optional plan view (3D) up to simulation mode.

His eyes had changed more seriously than ever before, bringing all of those abilities to the limit.

In addition, Xaviel's gaze, accompanied by Lloyd, was slightly more complicated than before.

Master, your servant.

The closer I got to it, the more I felt like a mystery.

So the first day of surveying for Lloyd's water supply has passed.

♣

After that, the surveys continued for several days.

Thanks to this, from Lake Capua in the middle of the Eastern Mountains to the territory.

The optimal path for placing the water conduit was determined.

The design was also done almost every night.

Thanks to the optional plan view (3D) and simulation mode of the design skills.

‘Not only can we look at the design results as holograms, but we can simulate them as well. ’

in fact, the results of the construction are on the terrain.

So when the construction is done in reality.

The design drawings often produce different results than expected.

No, the slightest difference between design and outcome is almost always the case, and that is the reality.

‘But I'm different. ’

Thanks to two options of design skills.

Dozens of times on site, the results of the design could be simulated.

It was possible to apply numerous physical conditions.

It could be a landslide.

Earthquakes.

How long can the conduit last in such a situation?

All kinds of experiments were possible.

The results could be calculated.

Just like that, when we finish designing the overnight plan for a few days.

Completed dozens of experiments and calculations.

I was convinced.

“That's enough. ”

Baron Frontera, on the edge of the eastern corner of the kingdom.

A monumental achievement was about to be completed when the first constant water level in the history of the continent of Lorasia was built on the small territory of Bahá 'h.
