Chereads / The Strongest City Lord in the Other World / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 The Stone Road that Came as Promised

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 The Stone Road that Came as Promised

Nonas was 17 years old. It was said that he used to live in the Holy Spirit Kingdom. Although he was not very rich, he was not that poor.

When he opened the window, the rising sun became more dazzling.

"Is it sunny today?"

There were small footprints on the muddy path outside the house.

The reason why Nonas came to Berlin was that his parents had offended the so-called "incredible guy". But Nonas didn't know who the guy was.

When he was five years old, the goblin attacked Berlin.

The creature was thin but cunning. It had green skin, elf ears, sharp teeth and sinister!

His parents were killed by the goblin, which broke in. At that time, Nonas hid in the basement and escaped from the disaster.

He would never forget that night, which was the pain of his whole life.

Fortunately, he was taken care of by his neighbors, so he could barely live till now.

The first thing he did after getting up was to come to the back of the house and hear the sound of beating the iron.

Nonas had never heard any musical instruments in the city, so he thought that the sound was the best in the world.

The sound came from a shabby cottage in the mountain.

He would often see red lights shining in the dead of night.

In the shabby cottage, Nonas's favorite uncle, Uncle Launes.

"Good morning. How many tasks do you have today?"

After a while, Nonas came to the room and said happily.

Seeing that Uncle Launes was beating the iron with a serious look, he became more interested.

This skill was not simple.

Most of the hunters in the city had weapons made by him! Launes's skills were not inferior to that of the master of the blacksmith shop in Holy Spirit Kingdom. It was said that he had even helped the royal guards forge weapons. The reason why he came here was that he had offended the nobility.

"The nobility again!"

Thinking of this, Nonas couldn't help clenching his fists.

It was not that the two hated the rich, but that the rich oppressed the ordinary people was really disgusting!

"What do you think of this iron?"

Launes looked very excited and put the fiery red iron in the sun.

He couldn't see any stains!

This iron was really good!

Compared to the scrap iron that was full of stains beside, even if it was made into a weapon, it would not take long to play. This piece of iron was simply so good!

"I'll be 18 next year! You promised me that you would teach me how to strike when I was 18!"

Nonas kept nagging.

Not only didn't Launes feel bored, he even put the work aside and wiped the stains in his hands with a relatively clean white cloth.

"Don't worry. We'll talk about it when you're strong enough."

He had been brandishing the hammer for years, and he couldn't bear it if he was not in good health!

After thinking for a while, Nonas suddenly looked up and asked, "Did you hear the prince's speech yesterday?"

Hearing this question, Launes was stunned.

"I've heard that. The so-called marble is all over the city square. I don't know if it will come true or not. What an idiot!"

Launes didn't care much about this.

At present, all he wanted to do was to forge a powerful weapon to fight against the goblin, who often invaded Berlin, and the rampant bandits in recent months!

"Only with weapons can we resist, right?"

Nonas took out a newly cooled blade from the bucket.

The blade shone brightly in the sun.

At this time, an old woman rushed down the mountain.

"Mrs. Mana, slow down. Don't flash your waist again!"

Nonas reminded her.

But he saw Mrs. Mana turned around with excitement.

She hadn't been so happy for a long time!

She even danced and said, "I think he can! I think he can!"

"What can he do?"

The two of them were confused at the same time, but Mrs. Mana pointed at the road in the distance and said directly, "Of course he is the new city lord, oh no, the noble city lord Rowen! I think he can save Berlin from the edge of poverty! Believe me, he is different from before!"

Looking along the arm of Mrs. Mana, a dazzling road made the two people stunned.

"Wait, what's this?"

"What are you waiting for? There are not many chances to step on the marble!"

After saying that, the three of them hurried to the city square!

The huge square seemed to have regained its vitality!

"Marble! It's Marble! Isn't it a dream?"

Nonas was stunned, while the others were excited.

"He did it! He did it!"

"You are right."

"I saw marble in my lifetime!"

The city square was replaced by a row of neat marble!

The sun flames shone brightly on the marble! The residents were so excited that they wanted to step on the hard marble!

Nonas couldn't believe it. It was just that marble really appeared overnight!

"No... I didn't hear the sound of labor last night!"

Nonas stepped on the marble and felt it clearly, but he still couldn't believe it.

On the other hand, Nonas's face was full of joy. "Maybe, it's magic. Anyway, he did it!"

At the residence of the city lord.

In the sunshine, Rowen stretched himself. Beside him, there was clear water for washing and breakfast the servants getting up early to prepare!

"It's true. You did it! Was it God's work?"

Rowen had just gotten up when he was pushed to the bed by the excited maid Marisa.

"Please forgive my rudeness, but marble appeared, really appeared!"

The maid said excitedly.

Rowen looked calm.

"Yes, yes. God has granted and fulfilled my request."

After coming back last night, Rowen told everyone that he had made an agreement with God that marble would appear as he said the next day.

After all... The matter of system couldn't be exposed.

"Although, it's still beyond the budget!"

Rowen looked at the necklace on his neck and felt sorry for it.

The square was covered with marble, which cost thirteen thousand gold coins!

Apart from all the gold coins he had, Rowen had also taken off the pendant he had been wearing for months! Only in this way could he manage to support the project.

Outside the room, Clauco also entered the room after hearing the noise.

"So, yesterday's pray worked? Did God really bring happiness to Berlin?"

Rowen washed his face with water.

"It seems so."

But when he raised his head, he saw the incredulous look on the face of Clauco.

Rowen sighed helplessly, revealing another so-called "divine enlightenment".

"In the near future, there will be some inexplicable people to help me build Berlin!"

"..."

Clauco stared at Rowen for a while and then shouted at the door, "Priest, priest! Where is the accompanying priest? I think it's time to dispel the evil for our prince!"

This exaggerated reaction made Rowen jump up from the bed and cover his mouth.

"Dude, I'm serious..."
