Garudeina Vol.3 Chapter 12

A great speech

————————————————————————————————————————–

 

On the promised day of delivery, Georg and Ferris voiced out their admiration.

 

“This is….. quite good…. masterfully done…..” (Georg)

“Yeah….. it’s amazing, that’s the only thing I can say about it.” (Ferris)

 

434 names could be seen on the inventory list. There were some beastmen that looked like foxes to me, a family of leopards, and some bear-like people which had a Chinese-sounding name. The leopard people truly have perfect nekomimi (TN: cat ears). Georg was extremely excited (although he tried to keep it well-hidden).

 

“The leopard group have 26 males and females in total…….that’s not a lot.” (Georg)

“Well…. forgive me. The leopard tribe people have great natural power, and so many of them escape……or are killed.” (Ed)

“No, I didn’t mean it like that…?” (Georg)

 

I explained to Ed what I really need. It’s not that I didn’t want to know the history of the people, but I really wanted him to increase the numbers from now on. I meant that I want him to increase it by all means.

“Brother, are you thinking about something strange?” (Ferris)

“Hmm? I am doing no such thing, but why?” (Georg)

“So?” (Ferris)

“Yes.” (Georg)

I have been seen through slightly.

However, Ferris seems to be somewhat restlessly looking for someone.

 

<Am I…..imagining it?>

 

From what I have heard from her, it seems Ferris didn’t have a family before she came with me…. but might that be it?

 

<I would have liked to meet them.>

 

However, Ferris, who had been looking around for a while, dropped her shoulders regretfully.

<After all…..she might not even remember their faces…..well, a long time has passed since she last saw them.>

<And I, too, don’t remember the faces of mine……Yeah, it’s understandable because it was a long time ago since I saw them as well.>

Georg, who didn’t know what Ferris is thinking, proceeded to talk with Ed.

 

“Is it certain that all the goods in this catalog are really here?” (Georg)

“Yes, if necessary we can unload them, but…..” (Ed)

“No, I don’t have time for that. I’ll believe it since it is Ed who said it, but lies will not be forgiven….” (Georg)

“Ha, hahaha…..For some reason I feel like checking again….” (Ed)

“Well, time is precious. I will check it as soon as I get to my destination.” (Georg)

 

Ed had a dry expression which seemed to be getting worse and worse, but I actually didn’t really want to retaliate if there was but a slight difference. I intended to joke about it, but it was received with such seriousness, and I was reluctant to calm him down (because no one points out my jokes in my daily work either).

 

By the way, in the city of Nidea, the are rumors of powerful people wearing mysterious white robes. It goes without saying that those refer to Georg. (He had beaten up both the guards of the lord and the famous magician in but a moment, and then walked away as if there was nothing going on.)

 

Apparently, the guards had kept their promise, because there were no rumors of a Dragunir appearing.

<If possible, I would like to hide my existence for another 20 years…..>

 

In twenty years’ time, it would be possible for the city of Garudeina to have a certain level of strength. Basically, whenever problems with humans arise, I only want to intervene as a last resort.

It’s because a Dragunir would make humans feel threatened, rather than curious, when interacting with a beastman country. First of all, it’s important to make humans think that dwarves, beastmen and elves are not at all inferior to themselves.

I want the strength of the nation to be a collective effort of the beast people, and for it to keep being superior to that of human nations, at some point.

 

<I wonder if it will be possible in the future…..>

 

Georg was determined to make such a city for the previously thrown away people.

 

“Well then, I won’t remain here for long anymore. If it proceeds too slowly, it will hurt my future plans.” (Georg)

 

 

“Will you start on the left side? Then I too…..” (Ed)

“Oh, and we will come again soon, so please gather some new beastmen in advance. And don’t kill any of them anymore, but take care of them.” (Georg)

“Of course. “All the beast-people in this town have already been gathered, and there are multiple people working on this, so I will tell you first-hand when new goods arrive.”  (Ed)

“If so, that’s good. We might not meet in person for a long time, but I would be sad if you died before I could meet you again.” (Georg)

“If we can have a good talk again next time, I will do my best not to die before then.” (Ed)

“I am starting to think that you aren’t so bad.” (Georg)

“Haha, that is the result of being trained by a certain person. Okay, I will excuse myself now.” (Ed)

“Hmm, you are a professional.” (Georg)

“I will be praying for your good health and happiness, Georg.” (Ed)

 

He said so while boarding the carriage, and he smiled to Georg without breaking his smile until he was gone. Georg is someone who tends to take aggressive actions against humans, but to those who benefit him, he is tolerant. It is one of the qualities suitable for a ruler.

 

Eventually, when all employees of the Goldberg company had left, he turned to face Ferris, and after she nodded while remaining silent, he said to the 434 anonymous beastmen:

 

“Well, people. Have you ever flown in the sky?” (Georg)

 

 

And so. There would be the same words and expressions as when those 68 people became residents.  A smile like that of an innocent child who thinks they might have been tricked.

 

Ferris smiled wryly to the 434 confused people.

Georg was satisfied with this reaction and immediately exercised his magic.

Some screamed and cheered, some were taken aback, and others raised voices of admiration. Georg has perhaps the best personality for caring for those people who have been treated like livestock.

 

That is why these moments were Georg’s favorite.

<I will do the same thing again in the future, and each time I will enjoy these reactions, and Ferris will be amazed. It’s not likely that she will stop to be amazed. This is the first step towards the freedom of those new residents. There are signs of development of a culture and the city, and common sense is slowly crumbling.

 

What can you call entertaining, if not this?>

 

“Haha, everyone has great expressions. Look closely, down there is the world, the earth, and here is the sky! Where is it written that there is a limit, where is the boundary, where is it known that only humans can be happy? It is common sense that humans are better. Let us deny that common sense! We live in this world too! It is our light! Our time!

I will create a world where you can be laughing, having fun, and be sad at times. I will! Because that is my duty! Therefore, you have the right to live together! Until the time comes when I have fulfilled my duty, please enjoy life with those who want to! Do you want to live, with me?” (Georg)

 

As he voiced this loud and sudden question, a lot of people were confused, but there were some with light shining in their eyes as they listened carefully to Georg’s enthusiastic speech, wanting to know for certain that they had not misheard anything in the wind.

 

“From now on. It starts finally, the end of this world’s common sense. There is no doubt that common sense can be made anew. I will have you show me. That is my right.” (Georg)

 

I have an obligation to tell everyone that they can do it, and to see to it that they believe in me.

Many still have suspicious eyes. But, that will surely be so for only just a while. When they arrive in that city, they will see the people that already live there. And they will walk together with them. It may be an arrogant wish of me, but I firmly believe in it.

 

That is because I trust those that already live in that city.

 

I’m sure they will welcome the new residents with these words:

“Welcome to our city, our home, our family.”

When I thought of such a future, as a young dragon, I couldn’t suppress my excitement, expectations, and enthusiasm.
