Overgeared

“Prime Minister! Why didn’t you stop His Majesty?”

Administrator Rabbit visited Lauel’s office and raised his voice. He was so furious that his entire face and neck were red.

“Why were you silent while His Majesty destroyed all of the kingdom’s insane dragon iron?!”

Over the past few years, the economic market of the Overgeared Kingdom had changed significantly. Agriculture used to be the center of the economy but now the armory business had become the industry that represented the Overgeared Kingdom. The reason behind this was the insane dragon iron. Thanks to the infinite multiplication of the insane dragon iron, the battle gears were produced almost free of charge. This meant enormous profits were made. The insane dragon iron was one of the treasures that promoted the profit of the battle gear industry of the Overgeared Kingdom.

Then Rabbit received the news that King Grid, after returning today, recovered and destroyed all the insane dragon iron. Rabbit was the administrator with the duty to make the kingdom rich and felt like he had been struck by lightning out of the blue.

“His Majesty should still have some of the insane dragon iron that he owns separately! You need to persuade His Majesty to re-supply the insane dragon iron to the blacksmiths!”

After Rabbit’s insistence, a notification window popped up in Lauel’s vision.

[Administrator Rabbit has proposed the quest ‘Persuade the King.’]

Rabbit was the top official who manages the Treasury. It was hard for players of the Overgeared Kingdom to refuse the quests he gave because it was an ‘order.’ However, Lauel had a higher position than Rabbit. It was much higher. He easily rejected the quest and asked Rabbit a question, “When did the insane dragon iron belong to the kingdom?”

“That...”

“The insane dragon iron has always belonged to King Grid. He just loaned it to the kingdom for a while. We have no right to intervene, no matter how His Majesty disposes of it.”

“That is true but... isn’t your duty to admonish His Majesty when needed? If he disposes of the insane dragon iron, the economic growth rate of the Overgeared Kingdom will be many times lower than it is now. We can’t stand idly by...”

“No, it is the duty of a true servant to trust His Majesty before admonishing him. Why did His Majesty make this decision?”

“......”

Rabbit stared dumbly. He realized that he had lost his temper for a moment due to the pressure of calculating a profit and loss. Lauel’s words were right. He was Grid’s servant before he was the administrator. Rather than questioning Grid’s choices, the right attitude was to trust him and try to understand.

Rabbit thought silently for a moment before speaking, “Is His Majesty burdened by the danger of the insane dragon iron?”

"Yes, that is correct. I personally think that His Majesty did well.”

Everyone made mistakes. One of the tens of thousands of blacksmiths might forget to suppress the proliferation nature of the insane dragon iron. It was possible that the insane dragon iron would cause unforeseen accidents. Looking back on the incident where the empire struggled to deal with the insane dragon iron needles embedded in the walls of the empire and the gift presented to the empress, the dangers of the insane dragon iron was too great.

‘It can even bring dragons.’

Lauel shook his head as he recalled the information he received from Grid. Since he didn’t want to get involved with dragons, the insane dragon iron gave him the creeps.

‘I don’t know if we can meet one who can talk like Nefelina.’

The effect of the flyer was verified through Rabbit’s reaction and the satisfied Lauel explained, “Weren’t a lot of mines found in the previous Gauss Kingdom’s territory?
