Overgeared

“Ahh... I was worried about what they were doing while construction was going on but once it is completed, it is spectacular.”

“It is much nicer than when I watched it on the videos or screenshots.”

“Right? It is said they recruited a lot of world-class architects.”

Exclamations burst out nonstop from the endless procession. They admired the high-rise buildings that lined the city walls. As a player-ruled city, the capital of the Overgeared Empire, Reinhardt, had a modern atmosphere. The most striking thing was the high-rise buildings and large geometric architecture. Buildings in styles that were hard to see in Satisfy pleased the modern people’s aesthetics and convenience.

At the same time, the traces of the effort that was put in to not harm Satisfy’s times raised praise. Color, composition, topography, arrangement, and even lighting were used to create harmony between the Middle Ages and modern times. There was no sense of incompatibility at all.

“It is the feeling of coexistence between the past and the future.”

“There are many directors trying to get it as the filming location for sci-fi movies.”

“Huhuhut...”

Lauel felt very good. From the start until the city became what it was today, how hard had he been working for so long? He raised a large amount of capital, recruited the best architects in reality, and nurtured engineers in each field to actually implement the form of the city he had designed...

Reinhardt’s current form hadn’t been achieved in just a year or two. From the founding of the kingdom to now, it was more than five years in real time. It was a project that Lauel planned and implemented by selling his own assets and investing at his own expense. It was only recently when the level of Satisfy’s engineers rose that the project could enter the implementation stage. He was already satisfied when he saw the reaction of the people. It felt like he was being rewarded for all his efforts. The amazing thing was—

“It is even more spectacular from a high place. You’ve worked hard so far. Really.” Grid’s short praise and encouragement was more rewarding than the praise from tens of millions of people.

Lauel felt the trembling of his soul. “Indeed... I think the vessel called you is really good. It is probably because it is a vessel that I don’t have to worry about overflowing.”

“Uh... In any case, congratulations and thank you.”

“I also want to congratulate and thank you.”

They rejoiced that they met each other.

The two men leaned against the railing and bumped their fists together lightly.

『 Do you see the crowds on the streets? For the last three days, the number of visitors to Reinhardt has surpassed 100 million. Today’s captain selection competition, which unveiled the updated city, has attracted people’s attention. The new buildings that were covered in tents are all revealed, impressing countless people... 』
