The Demon King's Paladin

Chapter 135. Visitor

It's been 2 days since the swamps were restored. After informing Anna in private that the Water Goddess was contracted to her, Anna checked and was shocked to find her added to her contract list. Once all of the information was finished being traded, for the first time in a while, Sarah, Anna and I simply went to sleep without doing anything. Fighting a Wyvern and transforming a part of a continent probably has that effect on everyone. Yesterday was busy. Dragging everyone into my office to explain the plans going forward was an ordeal. Of course there was push back, mostly from Rodrick and Jim surprisingly. Rodrick because he had personally had milk before and was poisoned from it for 2 days. I explained that it was like medicine, as in not knowing how to handle it can result in poisoning yourself, Rodrick backed off. Jim on the other hand was harder to deal with. As a chef, his complaints were justified. He eventually accepted my selfishness when he realized I wasn't going to back down. In a way I felt bad, his concerns were natural. If someone told me they were going to start mass-producing and feeding people snake venom in my world, I'd probably call the police on them.

" I guess that I need to account for that and change the attitude towards milk from Paradise first. But how do I advertise it past that? No... First comes the product."

I reminded myself not to get ahead. I was sitting in my office now, thinking about how to make all of this viable. I'd probably need to use a double pot method for pasteurizing the raw milk. I'll just have to make them gigantic. Thankfully, this world has a spell for checking the temperature of something and they used a similar system to gauge heat as my world did. that'll do for temperature checks. I've already sent the designs needed for the process of different dairy products. From there I just need to mess around with the right amount of magic in place of modern machines in order to get butter, cream and cheeses going. I'm going to need to get rennet from plants. Thankfully I checked with Lily, and she can just create the rennet from scratch from using a special plant magic. Then I need to get some of the craftsmen involved in working for the dairy facility and makin---

/KNOCK....KNOCK.../

As I was double checking my plans for the rebirth of Paradise for the 7th time since I woke up, I heard some polite knocking on my door.

" Come in."

I responded to the knocks calmly. In walked Ellie and Wendy of all people.

" What are you 2 doing here?"

I asked the obvious question.

" Ms. Ruby said to bring you to the Northern Greeting Building. Apparently, someone has come, and she asked for you to come and speak to the outsider."

Ellie informed me of the current situation. Who could have arrived now? I look at both of them and nod my head.

" Okay, thanks for coming to get me. Are you both going to walk me there?"

Both Wendy and Ellie nodded their heads innocently. Great, people really do think I've gone crazy, they're even having children hack as minders for me.

" Well, thanks for the help, I guess. Let's get going." 

I got up to start walking out and the girls followed me. Once we exited the house, Ellie spoke very bluntly to me.

" So, did talking to that Goddess make you go crazy?"

" Huh?"

" Ellie!"

Wendy was concerned for some reason. I guess that whole " I'll execute anyone who gets out of line thing is still at the forefront of the Human's minds" I turned to Wendy and started to speak.

" Wendy, if you're worried about me randomly killing someone for speaking out of line, I'd punish someone with disciplinary actions if it were in front of outsiders, but it's fine if the people who live here want me to explain my decisions."
