Chapter.30 Clock
Not much has changed.
Except I decided to be a little more honest with my emotions.
Of course, that alone will not bring about any significant change.
We will continue to advance our relationship slowly and steadily.
Among the minor changes, the biggest one is that Rurin’s bucket list changed from a little bit to a little bit.
Of course, I don’t plan on doing it as often as I did during Kkook.
That’s an act of love that happens when emotions are at their peak, that is, depending on the mood. You can’t just smack your lips all the time, right?
That’s how much Lurin has changed.
And if I had to name one thing that changed, it would be that I no longer had any intention of hiding my feelings for this guy.
Lurin is sleeping on me right now. The bed is at the bottom. Me on top of that. And on top of that, Lurin.
It’s a ridiculous three-tier structure.
Of course, I also like our dragon, who has a nasty sleeping habit of rolling around all over my body.
This guy usually sleeps peacefully, but when he was tired, he had a habit of sleeping very strangely.
In that case, you have to move Lurin aside to get out of bed. Then I spin around and crawl into the blanket by myself, and sometimes I wonder if I’m really sleeping.
One month from the Eucharist.
Our daily lives have not changed much.
The only progress is still the kiss, but now I believe that our hearts are connected a little more deeply.
What remains now is Rurin’s mother’s case.
To avenge the enemy, clear away the stigma, and make Lurin stand proud among the dragons without receiving any disgrace.
That is the biggest task left for us.
Of course it is not that simple. You have to move very carefully. Since the true nature of the enemy cannot be seen, it will take considerable effort to bring out its true nature.
I plan to resolve the issues that have arisen before starting that head-to-head fight.
Now, along with the Gray boy, I was busy trying to introduce something called a watch into the world.
When I first thought of the watch, it wasn’t for dead time. But now, it feels like it’s a combination of two things.
It’s a world where the level of science is far behind that of modern times, but honestly, there’s nothing that’s inconvenient.
In modern times, problems that were solved with science are solved with magic and Lulin. Rather, it is possible to live a life that easily surpasses science.
If you want to make a hot spring in front of your house, you can create it and stop time to prevent food ingredients from spoiling, which is a far superior preservation method than a refrigerator.
Also, I enjoy watching Rurin more than watching TV.
So modern civilization has no meaning to me.
However, if there is one thing that is uncomfortable, it is the concept of time.
There are no clocks in this world.
It doesn’t matter if I do it alone. Because I can write it on my own in my own time. However, I can’t help but feel that it would be nice to know more accurate times when doing business, not only in restaurants but also in markets, including the opening and closing times of restaurants.
I have a watch, so I go to the store on time, but other merchants have very different opening times.
Large errors occur every day.
In particular, this phenomenon becomes more severe when the sun is obscured by clouds, making it difficult to tell whether it is morning or afternoon.
So it’s a watch.
And I even came to the idea that if I was going to introduce it, I would increase my assets with it.
Also, if the watch factory is built in Deadran City, the unemployment problem in Deadran City will be solved by creating jobs due to the demand for workers at the factory.
The plan is to use the embezzled money recovered from Deadran City and Rieden’s property as capital to get things started properly.
However, it is difficult to introduce watches that are too ahead of their time, such as quartz watches or wristwatches.
A watch that can be implemented to some extent here as well.
What I chose while looking for it was a grandfather clock that uses the principle of a pendulum that rotates in a manual winding manner.
A large body and large gear wheels.
Unlike the small, artistic parts that go into a wristwatch, it is made up of large parts, so I was confident that if a dwarf with some technical skills took the lead, I could make it.
If you start making grandfather clocks and selling them across the country, you can make a lot of money.
If you understand the concept of time, the world will change to the extent that it will be divided into a world without it and a world with it.
Naturally, watches will become a necessity, and the royalties that such a necessity will bring are sure to be an enormous amount of money.
Of course, copies may be made, and since there is no concept of patent rights, it is impossible to prevent them.
However, it will take that much time for people in this world to understand the principles of clocks by teaching themselves.
The watches that will be sold by then will already be enough to secure a large amount of assets and make Deadrun City also known as a watch failure.
That much more progress can be made.
The people of Deadran City also get to live better, and I make money.
I like my sister and my brother-in-law.
If we increase our assets, we will be able to gild all over the rares as Lulin always insists.
So, the first thing I did was summon a grandfather clock and show it to the Gray boy. The boy’s eyes popped out and he almost fainted.
A grandfather clock is a long wooden box containing a pendulum clock. Compared to a wind-up watch worn on the wrist, the structure of the gears is not bad.
In this world too, there are 24 hours in a day.
The cycle of a year is the same.
I already confirmed last time that the time I spent in modern times and the time I spent here are completely identical.
The problem is that you still need a skilled craftsman who understands the concept of time to some extent and can create it, but there is no one better than a dwarf for this.
The plan was to entrust the important design and work to the dwarves and proceed with the rest by providing jobs for the unemployed of Deadran City.
So the first thing to do was to find a trustworthy dwarf.
“Lurin. “Get up at 1 o’clock already.”
No matter what happens, Lurin’s daily routine of waking up doesn’t change. Perhaps this will never change? If my child is born in the future, I imagine myself waking up Rurin and Rurin Junior at the same time.
That was a slightly dizzying imagination.
“1 o’clock? Ugh, I don’t like it. “I wake up at 2 today.”
I also taught Rurin how to read the clock. Therefore, the expression began to move away from saying that the sun was up in the sky and started referring to a specific time, but Rurin countered that by tossing and turning, saying that she would sleep for an hour more.
Of course I can’t accept it.
“Huh.”
When I lifted the blanket, I saw the charming Dragon curled up even more and snoring.
“I think you’re already awake. Why don’t you stop struggling?”
“I didn’t wake up!”
Lulin curled up further and put his head under the pillow. When I threw the pillow away, he lied down on his front with a helpless expression on his face, and this time he opened his hands towards me.
“Then it’s Jjook!”
I can’t stop you. It’s like closing your eyes and sticking out your mouth.
I really can’t stop you.
I really can’t stop you.
However, just like Kkook, I don’t plan on overusing it too often. That’s too much of a mannerism.
Isn’t it nice to live an exciting life every day? Even for Lurin.
So, instead of using my lips, I smeared my soft cheeks and turned around.
Because this is also a joke.
“This is not it!”
Then, caressing his cheek, he jumps up and raises his eyebrows, expressing the difference between him and Jjook that he wants.
“This is also a kiss? You don’t like this, right? “Isn’t that too much?”
“I didn’t say I didn’t like it. But other than that… !”
“The reason it’s noisy is because of the atmosphere. “Just sticking out your lips like that doesn’t work.”
“I don’t care about the atmosphere! “I want to cum in the bathroom too!”
It’s funny.
At least bear with it.
I pressed my temples in earnest and then turned my back.
But soon you feel a heavy weight behind your back. This is because Lurin jumped and clung to my back.
I left the room in that state.
And then go down to the first floor.
The turtle shell on its back does not want to fall off.
Lurin, who treated me like a pony until I arrived at my destination and put her down, came down to the floor and started yawning as if she had never done that before.
A large bear-patterned pajama hangs down.
It’s a large pajama, so Rurin’s hands are inside the sleeves, feeling like she’s wrapped in it.
The place we arrived at was the sauna room.
When Rurin wakes up, I always make her wake up to the sauna first. It’s not an extreme sauna, but rather a simple steam bath that activates the dull brain after waking up and helps blood circulation, and then takes a shower.
The sauna room was introduced very recently. Since having only a bathhouse felt a bit empty, we even built a sauna.
However, it is a little different from modern sauna rooms.
The origin of sauna is Finland. Because the word sauna itself is Finnish.
Sauna originally refers to a traditional Finnish bathhouse. Although it is called a public bath, it is not a bathhouse as we commonly know, but rather a sauna as we think of it.
However, unlike what is common in Korea, the one I created is a traditional Finnish dry sauna.
This Finnish style was more convenient to make here as it warms the body with hot steam to help blood circulation and skin care.
This method is used to create a fire pit in the center, heat rocks and sprinkle water to create steam.
Of course, the ones doing that work are hired low-level monsters.
They are the so-called subordinates of Lulun.
Since Rare’s livelihood was starting to become difficult with only Lulun, they hired monsters that they could control to manage Rare.
The wood inside the sauna itself is of the highest quality, comparable to the price of gold, and the water used to create steam is rock water from the snowy mountain from the highest peak on the continent. I brought everything that was good for my body.
In addition, birch wood, a necessity for Finnish saunas, is also available.
As the leaves of the birch tree melt, they give off a scent and become soft, and if you stimulate them by hitting them with this, it’s that good.
When Serena and Elena were invited, a war broke out over this birch tree.
Lulin first started hitting Sereina with a birch tree, saying it was good for her health. Is there any way that Sereina would just tolerate that?
“How are you? “If you take this, your skin will improve!”
“Oh, that’s right? Then you should try it too.”
“Why are you hitting my head!”
Something like this?
But the funny thing is what Elena said while watching that intense death match.
“Can you hit me too?”
I guess you thought that the more you get hit, the better your skin will be.
Anyway, I entered the sauna with Rurin in her pajamas.
