I Was Just Having Fun With The Time Limit – Chapter 86

Chapter 86

The seven kings’ actions were also a silent order to recognize the princess’s worth.

Rahella, who concluded that it was a silent hint to support the princess, invited Narmore to the royal palace after a conversation with Isabel.

Narmore arrived at the Alphea Royal Palace.

While entering the Alphea Royal Palace, Narmore was a little puzzled.

‘The treatment is lavish?’

Narmore, not being a noble, had never received such treatment.

“This way, Sir Narmore.”

“I said, I’m not a Sir. Please call me Narmore.”

“You are a guest of His Majesty the King, so it is right to treat you with respect.”

“But are you really the aide of His Majesty the King?”

“Yes. That is correct.”

“Why would such a high-ranking person like you……”

“Well, it’s because Her Highness Princess Isabel strongly recommended you, Sir Narmore.”

Narmore met Rahella, the Holy King of Alphea.

“I have the honor to meet the King of Alphea, the Holy King who deserves all respect.”

“You are welcome.”

Narmore had various conversations with Rahella.

He was a bit nervous at first, but he became quite comfortable as they talked.

“Yes. Actually, the front of Yurimore Bakery had turned into a sort of social gathering place.”

“I heard that nobles wait all night every day, and it seems to be true.”

“The number was larger than I thought, so I started a small hotel business there. Oh, by the way, this is a secret from Her Highness. I’m going to give it to her as a birthday present next year.”

“You’re preparing a birthday present a year in advance?”

“I couldn’t give her anything decent for her birthday this year. So I’m going to give her something nice next year.”

That nice thing is a hotel?

Rahella stopped asking further questions and just listened to Narmore, but as she listened, she was amazed.

“You mean you’re making such an outrageous profit? No one in their right mind would ever stay there.”

“Of course not.”

Narmore, his tension eased, wiggled his fingers.

“But if you stay at the Yurimore Hotel, we’ll give you a priority waiting ticket for our Yurimore Bakery.”

“That works?”

“They’re the kind of people who come all the way here, paying millions of Luden just to eat a dessert. Money doesn’t matter to them.”

For them, money was just a small means to achieve what they wanted. For most of them, it didn’t matter how much it cost.

“But we have to provide them with the appropriate service and courtesy. The servants and maids at the Yurimore Hotel were trained at the Imperial Palace.”

Those who were specially trained under Chief Attendant Dailtha were assigned as servants and maids.

Most of the servants and maids in the Imperial Palace are from noble families.

“Servants and maids trained at the Imperial Palace? You won’t be able to afford the labor costs.”

“They’re from commoner families, so it’s okay.”

“What?”

As she listened, she was even more amazed.

“You mean that strict Chief Attendant Dailtha personally trained and taught commoners?”

“Huh? She’s a bit scary, but she’s not that strict.”

“That’s impossible!”

“She just did it without a word because it was for Her Highness Isabel……”

“……Is that so.”

“Perhaps you’re mistaken about the Chief Attendant’s name?”

“Dailtha. How could I confuse the one who commanded the Black Whale, the strongest sword unit in Bilotian?”

“I apologize. I’m a country bumpkin, so I don’t know much about that. Anyway, I’m sure she’s the Chief Attendant of the Arena Palace.”

Rahella was silent for a moment.

Rahella, who knew well about Dailtha, the Chief Attendant of the Arena, became more and more convinced of her judgment.

‘As expected, Isabel is a princess in a very special political position.’

Thanks to that, it was easier to come to a conclusion.

Rahella decided to actively promote the installation and use of the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate within the Kingdom of Alphea.

“We will be responsible for the installation of the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate and the supply of the associated distribution network.”

“What about the capital? How much investment is needed?”

“We only ask for various administrative support. We will not accept any financial investment.”

“What? Does the Imperial Family support it?”

“No. I think we can handle that much with the profits from Yurimore Bakery and Hotel.”

Narmore had no intention of receiving financial investment.

If they were short on capital, it would be a different story, but that wasn’t the case.

‘I can’t share this sweet honey. I’m going to be incredibly rich. Super incredibly rich.’

He was sniffing out the smell of money with his innate sense. And he had no intention of sharing the money with anyone else.

“I see why Princess Isabel recommended you. Although you are young, you have ambition and determination, and you have the ability to execute your plans. Princess Isabel has gained a great talent.”

“You flatter me.”

Rahella’s eyes narrowed.

‘The princess has excellent magical abilities and a kind heart. She’s so cute and adorable. But she’s still too young to have the insight to recognize such talent. This blind loyalty to Isabel is also difficult to understand.’

So what does that mean?

‘In the end, it’s someone the Imperial Family assigned. They must have been educated and trained for the Imperial Family from birth. I’m sure of it. That’s why even Dailtha is stepping up to help, isn’t it?’

It was clear that he was a talent secretly nurtured by the Imperial Family.

They must have assigned such a person to Isabel, and that person was eventually dispatched to the Kingdom of Alphea to work together.

Rahella, a possessor of excellent reason and praised as the Holy King, was certain.

‘I’m sure they’ve become part of the Imperial Family’s secret project.’

Narmore signed a contract with the Kingdom of Alphea.

It was a contract to sell the desserts produced at Yurimore Bakery throughout the Kingdom of Alphea.

At first, Yuri opposed it and was very angry.

“Did you forget our first promise? I said my desserts were only for Her Highness. You persuaded me to sell a limited quantity. You said it would help Her Highness. But now what? Mass production?”

“Don’t worry. This will be released under my name, Narmore, not the name of Yurimore Bakery. What I’m trying to sell is a cheap, popular version of the desserts you make.”

Narmore established a mass production system. This was also thanks to the AC technology invented by Isabel and Teyselon.

They were able to establish a very efficient factory.

With the active support of Holy King Rahella, Narmore Bakery began to be distributed everywhere.

Three months passed like that.

Narmore came to establish a second factory.

To create jobs in the Kingdom of Alphea, the second factory was built in the territory of the Kingdom of Alphea.

……There was such an external justification, but in fact, Narmore just wanted to keep it a secret from Isabel.

Anyway, the factories were running day and night, and the pastries were being sold in real time.

Rahella put a piece of cake from Narmore Bakery into her mouth, chewed it, and said.

“The power of the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate is tremendous. The milk cream is very fresh.”

“Yes. It’s because it’s transported as soon as it’s made.”

“It doesn’t seem to have deteriorated at all.”

The TeyIsabel Transfer Gate has permeated deeply into everyday life.

Accordingly, countless people began to actively use the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate.

“Any casualties?”

“There haven’t been any so far.”

“Okay. Still, thoroughly investigate those who use the Transfer Gate and manage them properly.”

The Magic Federation might try something.

They might say that someone suffered serious side effects after using the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate and contracted a rare disease, or that someone died because of the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate.

To prevent such things from happening, Rahella managed the issue at the national level.

At least within the Kingdom of Alphea, the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate was fully established.

Thanks to that, the person who smiled the most was Narmore.

“Hehehe.”

The TeyIsabel Transfer Gate quickly took hold and became an indispensable product of the new civilization.

And the owner of the distribution network that utilized the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate was Narmore.

Starting with Yurimore Bakery and Yurimore Hotel, Narmore has now established Narmore Corporation.

The mind of Narmore, the character who was destined to become the richest man in the novel, was racing.

“This will make the Kingdom of Alphea prosperous.”

Transportation and logistics are power.

The Kingdom of Alphea borders the Black Sea, known as a useless sea, to the west, and borders the territory of the violent heterogeneous races to the south.

The north was an excessively cold mountainous region, and the only place where trade was possible was the east.

Even that wasn’t a particularly advantageous place for trade.

But things changed when they started actively using the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate.

The fact that it was inconvenient for exchange also meant that it was easier to defend against foreign invasion.

“It’s very convenient for transportation in peacetime, but in wartime, it will be transformed into a strategic point where you can simply close the Transfer Gate.”

A natural trading city was created that was good for trade but not invaded.

“Anyway, the map is important.”

In the end, Alphea would continue to grow stronger, and then the surrounding countries would have to use the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate whether they liked it or not.

Because if they stayed still, they would fall behind.

But Narmore wasn’t the only one smiling.

A woman with glasses was smiling even brighter than Narmore in a dark room.

『TeyIsabel Transfer Gate, pioneering a new era of civilization!』

She was Yuli, formerly the Chief Reporter of the continent’s largest news publication, “Whisper.”

She was no longer affiliated with Whisper but was a freelance journalist, so she deliberately refused all support from the Imperial Family.

She said that it would increase the freedom and transparency of journalists.

『Holy King Rahella calls this the TeyIsabel Revolution.』

Yuli, who became a freelance journalist, quickly reported the news of the Kingdom of Alphea.

Upon hearing the news, the seven kings and numerous nobles who had been wary of the Magic Federation began to take great interest in the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate.

The international situation was changing day by day, but Isabel herself was not very interested in the current economy or politics.

Isabel was interested in and talking about something far more macroscopic and important.

“Yeah, so, how about making it like this?”

Isabel’s eyes twinkled like morning stars.

“……Would such a thing be possible?”

“Of course! With Yuri-eonni’s ability, I’m sure you can make it!”

Isabel was inventing something as great as, or even greater than, the TeyIsabel Transfer Gate.

Isabel now looked the happiest in the world.

“I’ve decided to call it Tteokbokki!”
