“So, what did you think after seeing this town?”

Currently, George had a meeting with Leon and two other representatives of the Dragonets at the hall of the lake.
Nina and Kyle are in the attendants too. Because there is a possibility that many things will depend on them depending on future discussions.

By the way, with regards to the Dragonets and elves other than the three who are currently in this place. They’re walking around the city freely under the supervision of a couple of guards.

Regarding shopping on the road, if it’s cheap things, such as snacks and fruits, just saying to the guards is enough, they carry cash enough for all that can be found on common roads. Regarding bigger things, I instructed them to inform the parliamentary budget officers to be checked if can apply later.

“Yes, to speak frankly… it’s wonderful. This city is incredible!”

Leon, who seemed to be impressed, said that as soon as they grasped his fist, the two others also nodded big and agreed.

“Foods, clothes, residences.. a large number of people can live having these, and the high walls that can prevent intrusion of foreign enemies!, this is imaginable to us..  it’s just too much … “

People standing behind George nod slowly with deep emotion, as Leon speaks excited.

“And above all, the one who controls them is that Dragonfly Stanford, your city’s popularity, skill, enthusiasm, are all the best I have ever seen. And you’re wondering what we would like to do from now on… think a little. “

“Huh …?”

“Are you thinking of moving us to this place and trying to show that power?”

“…That’s.. not wrong, but honestly, it’s a little troublesome”

George said that much, and called Nina and Kyle closer.

“What is the department that is needing elf personnel that can use magic?”

“Ha. Civil engineering construction, iron industry, wood industry, the more individuals who can use magic the better”

“Similarly, there are many places looking for such individuals for active participation in the agricultural industry, livestock industry, fishery industry, and a lot more places”

“But when you take in Dragonets you will change the story.”

“Johan “

“Haha, here,”

“With the current budget of the guards, can we afford to hire more than 50 people?”

“… It is tough”

“How will you handle the industries if you decide to appoint Dragonets for the open positions?”

“… If they become citizens here, as they’re a race that’s so similar or near to you, your subordinates will react badly at it, it’ll be as if the newcomers suddenly become superiors. Those who have been working in those positions and those who love you.. I think it is inevitable that there would be conflicts to being with”

“… All industries are the same in that aspect”

“… Felix, what is your opinion?”

“Wow … me … umm … well, a bit, suddenly my colleague becomes my boss, I’d be worried … It might be a problem … but If we worked together for a while, it wouldn’t be so difficult to recognize him though …”

There are various ways of pinpointing it, but the essence of the problem is exactly the same as what George was concerned about.

Dragonets. If they were inhabitants from the very beginning, there is no doubt that such a problem would not occur. However, the reality is that they came to Galdina just now. To a Galdina which currently has a population exceeding 2,000 people. And they entered in this growth period.

At the present stage that various organizations are already running, each has a chief and an assistant, and finally the most important functions of the city have been improved. So, them entering the present industries are an uncertain factor.

“Then… we are unnecessary and a problem here… so, why do you ask us…? if you can’t take us in”

Leon says so, not with anger or resentment, but rather with a voice and expression that shows sadness.

“It is a fact. There is no doubt, that you’re a reassuring race as long as you stay here.”

“Is that so?”

George is asking the surrounding people, and then five people expressed their positive views towards this.

“The point is, you’ve come later. In this city, the ability decides the status, but no matter how powerful Dragonets are, suddenly appearing and taking their places.. Many people will be puzzled, and, many people will think that you’re playing underhanded methods for power, It can lead to confusion… Do you understand? “

“…Yes”

If we look at the Dragonets, from their position and what would be their feelings in that situation, we will be struck by guilt letting them play that role for our benefit.

Indeed, because they are very powerful, just by looking at their appearance, it’s really hard to ignore their sadness when they feel depressed.

“Is there a way? …”

At the words of George, the Dragonets turn their faces with hope and expectation.

“Johan”

“Here”

“Solve the issue about the missing guards for my residence and my own security guards with them”

“… No way”

“Oh, the guard’s duty is to protect the city and its residents. An organization that protects life. And adopting the newly arrived Dragonets as guards, as my attendants, attendants of the parliament, the people will accept them. Let’s do it. “

“Okay … that’s it !! that’s the solution !!”

“Do not be afraid. There’s no reason for the people to doubt the loyalty of the guards, or keep away from them, Dragonets are not inferior nor superior, you’ll be very welcomed in this position.”

“…………”

It was that problem the only worry since the time I encountered the Dragonets, but the solution proposed is very good.

“The current guards are originally in a state where they’re both the military and at the same time my guards… but this now works only because the city is small and the population is only a few. Do you understand now? This can’t continue. “

“Yes……”

Even now, internal fights and trouble increase, and the guards are having more work.

“When the town grows and the population increases, guard and military will have to be separated eventually, I would like you to think that this step only has come a little earlier ……… although I have not planned this yet …”

As I said so far, watching the reactions in the surroundings, Dragonets are half as joyful, and half sorry for the problem they caused, and the others.. although a little bit unconvinced, they showed an understanding about the situation. Their next words were only welcoming the new members.

“Johan, if you created any troops on the military, I would like you to lead them as their general commander, on my behalf.”

But that’s a story for the future.. I don’t know yet when it will be.

“Wow … on behalf of His Excellency!”

“Oh, you’re currently just accumulating dust as you’re, the same with the past guards and loyal commanders, etc. The current guards are partly commanders by nature, so they’ll be executives who recruit new personnel, and organize new troops… Jill, you will assist Johan as chief commander in charge of the supplies staff and serve as a mediator between me and Johan. “

“Such big responsibility …. but I like it!”

“So.. this will be how we proceed, is there any objection?”

“Ah … there’re no objections! We certainly will work to meet your expectations!”

“In the same way, I am also proud of you people, I am honored to have you here with me…”

” … I will surely show you how useful I’m, even if I have to replace this body because it becomes unusable after it…”

About the dragonets.. this is the idea I thought of. Working with the Dragonets at the side to defend the city, and that way to make them to be accepted by the people.

Therefore, I decided not to advance to military all the current guards so they can become familiar with dragonets.

“And, although this came a bit late but, … Leon, are you willing to move here?”

Finally the main topic is here.

“Yes but… I should consult with everyone … probably, the answer is already decided, we also honor the proud Dragonil race, so we do not want to miss this chance.”

“Ok, so please come here again after you ask the others. I’m expecting they would say yes, so let me prepare in advance for a place today, to let you all take a good rest. Lets ask the guards to give you guys some more time to walk around the city. Do you see any problems? “

“No, it’s a good idea”

Thus, a new inhabitant is about to join Galdina …

“Brother”

“Hmm?”

After everyone left, Felix and I remained in the mansion. I have finished dinner now and have been staring at the office’s materials.

“Do you have any opinion about the Dragonets suddenly brought along?”

“… Well, somewhat … There are a lot of unknown things about their capabilities, and it is risky to let them mix into the various departments.. but at the same time, it is a matter of fact that I do not want to miss out on war potential. “

“… let’s leave it for now after all” he said.

“I do not know what to think, but somehow I feel that it will be troublesome if we let them be on low ranks forever?”

“I know that.”

“Well, if we do not have a plan now… then it’s best to decide how to handle the problem of their acceptance into the community more than being fixed on their jobs…”

“Oh, it seems a bit impressive to think we can solve that issue, but.. the guards can be of help at it..”

“Yeah, at the end, everything is just a change in title …”

Such a discussion went on for a long time.. until the morning surprised us with the first light….
