Chapter 192: How can you say that to a maiden!
My plan to entrust the management of the railway system to the kingdom was a success, likely because I presented my case to the king himself.
Things like discussing with each local lord as well as the planning for the railway’s route have all been taken from my hands.
Of course, the actual building of the railway system was still up to me.
Well, more accurately, to my body doubles.
Also, after much deliberation, we have decided that instead of building the railway system above ground, we would build it under.
Trains and railways weren’t common knowledge yet in this world.
So, if we built it above ground, a lot of people would be curious what the tracks were for and probably be run over by the trains.
In other words, I had to first build the underground tunnels that would connect the cities to each other.
Like this though, we would be able to install the railway system with minimal changes to the landscapes of the involved cities.
The line from the royal capital to our wasteland village—by way of the original Albert’s capital and Riesen—has been given approval already.
These areas were under the direct control of the royal family, after all.
After my body doubles have finished building it, we would likely hold a test run.
“Luke, let’s go ride the train again!”
“Luke-sama, why didn’t you take me with you as well”
Selen—who seemed to have enjoyed riding trains—asked me so with sparkling eyes.
On the other hand, Millia looked at me reproachingly.
“Fufufu, I win~!”
Selen looked triumphant for some reason.
Didn’t you ride the train purely by chance
At that moment, Satin contacted me via telepathy.
He sounded quite flustered, so I readied myself for something troublesome.
