Chapter 126: Lolth’s Work

A few days later, Lolth posted a new job advertisement on the bulletin board. She also informed the eighty-eight former Superoperators of the Holy Alliance through Tina and Maider about the upcoming construction tasks.

“Important notice about the new Western New Development Zone construction project on the west bank of the Larech River tributary.”

Within minutes, the residents of Hillenbrand Town gathered around the bulletin board, eagerly reading and discussing the announcement.

Following the success of the first phase, Lolth remained confident about the second phase of the project, even though it was far more complex, with double the workload. With the support of newly trained workers and talented professionals, she was optimistic about the outcome.

As expected, enthusiasm was high among the townsfolk and the former Superoperators.

For the residents of Hillenbrand Town, the new phase meant more coins and job opportunities. The benefits of the Southern New Development Zone project were evident to everyone, both during and after its completion.

Meanwhile, the captured Superoperators quickly realized that this “Western New Development Zone” included projects to build their own homes.

Many Superoperators, like Rayleigh, had once been idealists who joined the Holy Alliance with noble aspirations. However, years of war, defeat, and exile had left them disillusioned. Captured by the demon race and introduced to the peaceful life in Hillenbrand Town, their perception of demons began to shift.

“What was I fighting for earlier?”

This existential question lingered in their hearts as they observed the harmonious community. They began seeking new meaning in their lives.

As a result, many humans, elves, and dwarves actively participated in the town’s work. They not only helped with the new development zone but also found ways to redefine their sense of purpose.

When they learned that the new project included schools, hospitals, and a City Hall, excitement spread among the group. The realization that they were contributing to something meaningful filled them with pride.

The elves were particularly ecstatic.

“I knew Master Tina wasn’t ‘fallen.’ She must have seen that this succubus is a good person!”

“Exactly! Our prejudices were too deep. We needed this experience to understand.”

“Master Froer, did you see? Our Moon Elf princess has truly matured!”

For the human Superoperators, Lolth’s generosity and fairness far surpassed the cruelty of the noble lords they once served.

Even those from noble backgrounds began to question their long-held beliefs.

“Could it be… Abyssal Demons aren’t inherently evil and cruel?”

Rayleigh Collin, their leader, shared a sentiment similar to the elves.

“Master Isabella hasn’t fallen. If this succubus is kind, serving her isn’t betrayal—it’s a new kind of loyalty.”

The dwarves, on the other hand, were more straightforward in their enthusiasm.

“This bridge design is incredible! It could hold heavy artillery!”

“Not just that, but it’s resistant to wind and waves—this is engineering genius!”

“And look at these building plans! Lord Lolth wants to construct a thirty-meter-high multi-story building without relying on extraordinary powers. Is that even possible?”

The dwarves were both amazed and skeptical, but the designs intrigued them.

“Her inventions, like that magical pile driver and crane, are decades ahead of anything we’ve made.”

“She even invented beer—by the gods! If she weren’t a succubus, I’d crown her as the Dwarf King!”

Their admiration fueled their excitement to work on Lolth’s ambitious projects.

Lolth, inspired by their enthusiasm, threw herself into her designs, creating blueprints for innovative tools like magical pile drivers, cranes, and chainsaws.

Although this world lacked industrial systems, the persistence of extraordinary powers allowed master craftsmen like the dwarves to create marvels with basic tools. From legendary artillery to intricate machinery, they brought her visions to life.

However, the uneven progress of their technology reflected the land’s priorities—warfare had always driven innovation faster than civilian needs. Even so, Lolth’s “magic machines” impressed the dwarves, sparking discussions about the potential of blending engineering and magic.

Under the leadership of Tina and Maider, the second phase of the Hillenbrand Town project commenced without a hitch. The residents and Superoperators, experienced from the first phase, quickly adapted to their roles.

With Tina overseeing the gathering of materials, organizing teams, and distributing tools, the work progressed smoothly along both banks of the Larech River. The area, enhanced by Lolth’s Space Magic Array, began to transform into a bustling construction site.

The stability of the southern agricultural zone provided abundant raw materials, freeing Lolth to focus her energy elsewhere.

Her priority now was teaching Kanor, imparting both her extraordinary powers and her culinary skills.

Lolth smiled to herself as she considered the progress. The future was bright, and her vision for Hillenbrand Town was steadily becoming a reality.
