Chapter 47 An overwhelming stack of documents, enough to obscure ones vision. The grand assembly of massive papers was more dizzying to Logans mind than any curse could be. Thud. The mechanical stamping of his seal on document after document while his gaze aimlessly drifted through the void was a Sisyphean task. But Are you even checking what youre stamping? Hey, that document is concerning the castles repair issues; we havent even discussed that! Young master! Are you going to keep working carelessly?! The demon of paperwork continued to wring him dry with no intention of letting up. Ah, Ive never seen my father work to such an extent? Logan protested, albeit belatedly, as he realized the sense of disconnect from what was happening. Of course not. Most of it is handled at my level. What? The absurd response provoked a fiery glare from Logans reddened eyes. Why are you dumping all this on me, then?! Because youre going to be the heir, you need to know everything about the territory! Im NOT the heir! Come on, who would acknowledge that?! Instead of conceding, Dwayne roared back, and Logans mind went blank. Ah, is that how it is? Its not about recognizing me as the heir; its about recognizing that Im not the heir? Just as confusion began to blend into his logic, Dwayne relentlessly pressed on. Theres been a lot of backlog due to the aftermath. Some of it also involves properties from Teslon Castle. A number of those managers were in cahoots with Hamin Teslon, and given how many there were, we decided to do a complete overhaul As Dwayne grumbled on, Logan felt a throbbing headache threatening to take over. And with a shortage of administrators, squeezing as much as we can, it feels like we might survive thanks to you overseeing some of this. Familiar words of flattery emerged, following several days of being pushed to the brink. However, Dwaynes tactics didnt work this time. It feels like Im the one dying here. Then, when you become the lord later, please hire more administrators. Or now would be good too. Haha. Ugh Due to your policies, theres an influx of paperwork. It has to be on a grand scale, considering we havent even finished dealing with the aftermath Dwaynes insidious chuckle provided a transparent glimpse into his ploy. Referencing the dam construction, he had keenly assessed that Logan would be unable to intervene further. Fine. Do it, but this had better be the end, right? After this, the construction business is done?! If not, he was ready to put an end to him. The threat, laden with the intent to kill, made Dwayne reluctantly nod. After the harrowing stint of acting lord finished and filled with malicious intent from the chief administrator, Logan dragged his weary body up to the ancestral burial grounds, taking up his sword against the setting sun. Once the construction finishes, Ill recruit soldiers His head was packed with strategies to strengthen the familys military force, but when swinging his sword, he forced himself to concentrate solely on the moment. I must become stronger, too. He needed the strength to face the overwhelming foes he had encountered in his past life. Attracting such caliber of people to his side was another solution, but that was no simple feat. Not even a single piece of information had surfaced from the requests he left with Knox. I must become more powerful. If only with arcane strength. Though the vague hope seemed far-fetched, fortunately, as he focused increasingly on his training, Logan could feel his sword strikes becoming more powerful and his movements more refined. His Force-augmented senses were so sharp that he could detect even the slightest changes in himself. To Logan, training was a process wherein faint hope gradually turned into reality. Thus, the intense training that pushed his physical limits to the brink paradoxically felt like a respite for his mind. Of course, this was made possible because through the practice of meditative training, he could completely alleviate the fatigue that had accumulated, effectively replacing sleep. And so, Logans days passed by busily. As the pile of documents to process dwindled, the time he spent as a stand-in lord decreased and his training hours increased. It was around this time that an ill-omened piece of news flew in. * * * An accident?! Logan sprang to his feet, jolted by the news that broke in during his work hours.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only Yes. One of the mine shafts collapsed A sign things were going too smoothly, I suppose. When did we get a mine in our territory? How long will it take to clear this and get Hamar out? At least a week, no, three days at best. And thats if everything goes smoothly. Without Hamar, its unlikely. The miners all nodded in agreement at Logans gaze, forcing him to grind his teeth. Even for a robust dwarf like Hamar, being trapped under a rock pile and bleeding for more than three days wasnt promising. The biggest issue remained, though. Is there enough air, can they breathe? Delaying meant he couldnt guarantee the survival of Hamar or the workers. What to do A clear course of action sprung to mindhe had the most suitable personnel in his employ, an earth magician. Yet, he faced a fierce internal struggle. What if the secret leaks while mobilizing the mages? The mines existence was not yet meant to be revealed to the outside world. Could he trust these mages, mere short-term hires? Perhaps it would be better to direct his knights under the guidance of the miners. But hastiness might trigger a secondary collapse, presenting an even worse scenario. There was no better option than calling on the earth mages. Either way, I have to save Hamar. At that moment, that was paramount. There was no one to replace Hamar in sight. I must take some risks. And beyond all plausible reasons. A lesson from his previous life etched in his mind was clear. If you cant protect those closest to you, youll end up alone. Right Thats the way The turmoil within quickly dissipated. Logan bit his lip resolutely and hurried out the mine shaft. * * * The great young master! Lord Logan! Thud, thud, thud, thud. Even as he sped by on horseback, the workers greeted him, but there was no time to respond. Oh, Logan, its been a while Clayton! Could I have a word with you in private? His urgent request cut the pleasantries short, compelling Clayton to step away momentarily from the construction site. A mine and an accident? Hearing Logans brief explanation, Clayton shook visibly, taken aback. But there was no time to dwell. Yes. Clayton, please, save Hamar and the workers! I will make sure you are richly rewarded. I implore you. Ah, so the dwarf was running to and fro between here and there I see. Haha, understood. Its urgent if lives are at stake. Ill help. Thank you your compensation will be certain Clayton looked anew at Logan, who was bowing his head. A mine It struck him as odd they hadnt used collapse scrolls at all. There was something more to it, and if developing a mine was the case, it all made sense. The mine must be no ordinary copper mine to keep it so secretive. Even if it were copper, revealing such a guarded secret to save a slave and some workers, going to the lengths of promising compensation and bowing to a mere hired mage, was no mean feat. Hes not your typical noble. Clayton had been aware of Logans abilities since joining him in the territory. The breadth of spirit he showed, ensuring contracted workers were fed instead of forced, had already earned his respect. Moreover, the young mans actions in this crisis impressed him further. Impressive! He was the most exceptional youth Clayton had encountered recently. With his wealth, even if the dam construction fails, this territory will continue to prosper. Seeing such a youth filled him with a pleasant feeling he sometimes feared was a sign of age, but it was not unwelcome. Griek! Signal the others. We all go together. Clayton acted swiftly, proof of his experience.
