Gathering all the grand dukes.

It was a public meeting at the Greenwich Observatory. At the very least, I needed to decorate the meeting place. I had showed off my status by sending the invitations so I couldn't skip this task.

I called the dwarf king and all the dwarves. Of course, Oswen was necessary and he arrived first at the Greenwich Observatory.

"Your Majesty. You are giving me too many things to do."

"I know."

"Isn't unravelling the high dark elf's curse the most important task that Your Majesty gave me? It takes a considerable amount of time to create a weapon that will block a curse like that..."

"I know."

"I was just finishing off an idea for an experiment. At the very least, my skills are needed to create..."

"Oswen."

"Hum hum, I couldn't help saying such words. It is very important."

Oswen was somewhat disgruntled. It seemed like unravelling the high dark elf's curse wasn't going that well.

Chrisley's mother and Aojin's lover. She had been killed by a very powerful being and trapped by a curse. It wasn't easy even for Oswen.

I understood but he needed to cool his overheated head a little bit.

He had profound knowledge in the blacksmithing area, but wasn't he also my subordinate? I wouldn't have cared in my previous life but now I felt some sympathy. If things weren't going well then he should take a break.

"Complete it in two days."

"Two days is a little tight. 200 dwarves will be required."

Oswen's eyes burned as he decided to change his mindset. Even if things didn't work out, it was clear that he liked making things.

I nodded lightly.

"I will give you 400 dwarves so take care of it."

"So...it is possible to decorate things a little more luxuriously."

"Did you complete the request I asked for a week ago?"

"Ah, that request. It is finished. There are exactly 200."

I touched my jaw. I had clearly entrusted many things to Oswen. This was because Oswen was the only one who could do it. I had great respect for Oswen's abilities.

When talking about 'usefulness,' Oswen was one of the top two. He was sly but thoroughly capable. I didn't care as long as he didn't go against me.

Anyway...Oswen was busy with the high dark elf's curse when I presented him with a task. Fortunately, he managed to complete it amongst everything else he had to do.

"Install half of them."

"Should I make them as inconspicuous as possible?"

"You understand."

"I will tell Fairy-nim what is necessary."

"Do so."

"Then..."

Oswen bowed and left.

There were many tasks but he had no substitute. He could only blame his own excellent abilities.

However, Oswen never did a shoddy job. He was always committed to producing the best possible results. I couldn't not use him.

'This magic power?'
