Chapter 2092: Restoring the Territory II
"Ye..yes!" Adrian stated albeit almost biting his tongue because he did not expect that Frey would still remain as he knows that the Valkyries are extremely busy.
"Why do you seem so nervous? Did I perhaps trouble you in some type of way?" Frey asked as she did see that Adrian was busy talking with Creepysoo and another girl that seems to be a guild member.
"I was just caught off guard as I thought that you would leave after the battle." Adrian stated. "Do you want me to leave?" Frey asked playfully.
"No! I am sorry I meant to say... please take your time." Adrian stated hastily which Frey found a bit cute as he was flustered.
The people that saw this scene could only look at the two with judging eyes. Some were having butterflies at their stomach due to watching the two. The hopeless romantics were glaring at their guild master as they thought that he was one of them. There were others paying gold coins to others as there seem to have been bets placed on who the guild master would end up. There are also those that are couples that had their own world.
"I should thank you for aiding us. I did send the reinforcement request in the guild chat, but I did not expect that you would come hastily. Was the travel bad? Are all the business that you have in the northern continent done?" Adrian asked a series of questions which was odd for his guild members as they never seen their guild master be this chatty.
The guild members did not know that their guild master was already in the talking stage with Frey. They even gave their contacts in real life and the only thing separating the two from meeting was the literal ocean. Still, Adrian still has his reservations on meeting Frey as he has yet to fully recover and might get stares when they meet. If Adrian knew that Frey did not care for things like that then he might get a confidence boost, but he was still afraid to talk about
it.
"Things in the northern continent seem to be quiet for now but the people there are in high alert. So, are you busy right now?" Frey asked.
"I was about to go around the territory to fix things as it seems the Territory Lord needs to assess the damage in person to fix. Do you want to come with me so that I can also tour you around? The last stop will be the guild house." Adrian stated.
"Sure! I can accompany you but do not mind me too much and focus on your work. I will be just by your side observing so that you will not be distracted." Frey stated.
"Do not worry as I will be a good host." Adrian stated as he went around the territory and explained all the parts to Frey like a tour guide.
The people living in the territory were still full of smiles as the damage was not that extensive. The personal homes of each of them were pocket dimensions which is why they were relatively safe. The ones that are damaged are buildings like inns or restaurants that the residents gather to. In fact, some business owners started fixing the damages without Adrian\'s intervention. A lot of races even joined in to help others of a different race.
The harmony and sense of community in Avalon is actually so big. Some even started to open stalls even if they were not totally fixed. The main menu that they have now are mainly fried wings or barbequed flying monster. The menu was definitely made from the surplus of flying monster meat that flowed into the territory.
Even if the residents themselves were fixing the stalls without Adrian\'s help, he gave them the necessary materials and even lowered the overall tax by 5% to ease the burden. In fact, the residents themselves were the ones complaining that the tax was already small. They were the ones that actually wanted to pay more tax because the abundance that the land gives is phenomenal.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
The presence of the Tree of Life and Death makes Avalon a powerful production hub for specialized things like herbs, vegetables, and produce. No crop or livestock would ever go sick in this place, and they reproduce at an even faster rate. The benefits of the crops here are also apparent as there is a large demand for them.
The crops or livestock in Avalon never go below B grade and even the elusive S grade ingredient is possible. The addition of Farmhand Vince boosted the grades of crops even more to the point that all of them are all A grade. A lot of magic towers or even kingdoms are requesting herbs from Avalon due to this. Adrian is aware that the produce in Avalon is in high demand, but he does not know that a lot of places are raving about it.
The ones that fully know the prices and the trade are none other than Solstice and Piggy Bank. The two of them were working together to make a powerful market. In fact, it is said that they already control 10% of the market for the entirety of Pandemonium. They are even said to have joined the secret trade society that controls the flow of goods in the market.
This is not yet proven to be true as it is not general information but the facilities in Avalon are top notch and is said to be because of these two people. Frey enjoyed the company and just smiled as Adrian was greeting and being thanked by those that live in his territory. He could see that there is no great problem here than to the places that she has been. There were many guild run territories that were not optimal as they were mostly using heavy taxes and such but Avalon was different.
