Adopting Disaster-Chapter 121.1: (Part 1)

Pure and Upright (1)

The first flagship product of the Silence Tower was a recording device.

Various agricultural machinery such as stone saws and rock breakers were being developed, but the nobles were not interested, and the common people did not have many opportunities to access them yet.

In the meantime, the second flagship product was a completely unexpected item.

'It's really funny...'

What he was holding in his hand was a stylish box made of thin silver.

There, the Silence Tower mark was written along with this:

-Stone flower.

Simply written in two characters.

Just by that, people immediately recognize it as the stone flower petal tea made by the Silence Tower.

Currently, the Althea Church is actively cultivating it, but the most famous thing was the product of the Silence Tower.

The story of a man who devoted his body for a woman rather than defeating the demons.

It was a more romantic and deeply ingrained beautiful story.

As such rumors spread, the stone flower became known as the flower of love.

It was decided to entrust the cultivation of stone flowers to the Kalton Mountain Alliance.

The stone flower was discovered in the Kalton Mountains, and they promoted the cultivation of stone flowers as a specialty product by researching the ecology of plants and animals and recently clearing forests to create reclaimed land.

From the standpoint of the unclear main income of the Kalton Coalition, it was very good news.

"How much of our stone flower production compares to the Althea Church?"

"They say it's 1:10. We are 1."

"What about the quality?"

"They say it's similar."

There's no comparison.

Reed was not in a hurry, although it was enough to be pushed back by the Althea Church.

"How much is the product value compared?"

"The tea from the Althea Church is 10 UP per 10g, and ours is 1,380 UP per 10g."

The product value was 138 times different.

"It's increased tenfold since the last time I heard."

It was an effect created through rumors and stories.

-If you give tea cultivated in the Silence Tower, not the Althea Sect, to someone you like, they will fall in love.

-Since two people have actually been connected, the effect has been proven.

The rumors spreading through hearsay grew uncontrollably, and it began to be considered a must-have item for noble ladies.

'In a fantasy world, storytelling is important too.'

Reed realized that storytelling was an element that transcended time.

Reed began to think carefully about how to use this tea.

"Let's not sell the tea. It's not like we're short on money."

They weren't short on money.

No matter how much money they had, there was little influence they could exert on the tower.

"Instead, we'll make them wait for us to provide the tea."

"How do you plan to do that?"

"There are a few issues related to intellectual property rights, so we'll prioritize that project first."

"......"

"So if they want to get tea from us, they have to solve this problem. That's what we're advertising. Then they'll want to help us."

"Ah, I see."

Phoebe finally understood what he meant.

"But would they really move just for the tea?"

"What do you think the reason for the 138 times difference is? It's because they can't get it."

It shouldn't be thought of as just a number.

This is an emotion.

It's an item that they want to obtain, no matter what they have to do.

"Then many ladies will come to the Tower Master and ask for help."

"......You'll take care of that for me, right?"

"This is Phoebe Astheria Roton! I'm not called the watchdog of the Silence Tower for nothing!"

Phoebe confidently smiled.

Well, she knows how to handle such matters on her own.

Normally, Reed wouldn't care about it, but he wasn't happy about women approaching him.

"Master, is there a problem?"

Phoebe, who wasn't very smart, was always quick to notice when it came to Reed. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒏𝙚𝙩

"No, it's nothing..."

Reed glanced up at Phoebe.

He thought about it several times, and eventually nodded his head and confided in her.

"It's because of Dolores."

"You mean the master of the Wallin Tower?, right? Should I call her your fiancée?"

"Yeah, her."

Upon hearing that, Phoebe sat down across from him.

With a serious expression on her face, she asked Reed.

"Why is she like that? Has something changed? Is she being distant?"

"Well, she has changed a bit since before."

If she was lovely before, she's even lovelier now.

Their relationship had become more intimate than when they were both Tower Masters, with more physical affection and acting cute like a younger woman. To others, they would seem like a perfect couple, showered with envy.

Her pure, cute, puppy-like appearance had become stronger, but so had the opposite side.

"When it comes to other women, it's like standing in the middle of a snowy field..."

When stories involving women begin, the atmosphere takes a sharp turn.

Her face is clearly smiling, but a cold chill blows in, freezing the surroundings.

At first, Reed thought it was just his imagination, but after the third time, he was convinced.

Her jealousy had become much stronger than before.

"Indeed... it's a personal matter to talk about with someone else."

Phoebe nodded her head with a regretful expression.

"Your fiancée is also on edge these days. There are so many women who slander her."

"Dolores is being slandered?"

"Yes. If it's not true yet, there are so many people trying to take her place!"

"Hmm..."

"Ladies of the nobility have unimaginable persistence? Since they can't bring down the Tower Master, they spread malicious rumors about your fiancée being a wicked woman with a bad heart."

"Huh..."

Reed didn't appreciate hearing that someone from his family was being slandered.

"Dolores must be hurt."

"But she doesn't seem to be giving in. She says that being jealous only confirms that she is the winner."

"That's just like her."

In that regard, she was strangely positive.

As Reed smiled faintly at her words, Phoebe stared at his face blankly and asked.

"Master."

"Huh?"

"Do you love your fiancée?"

"Of course."

He nodded his head as if there was no need for further explanation.

"That's what I thought... it's only natural."

Phoebe showed a strange mix of relief and sadness.

Then, with a composed face that Reed didn't notice, she said.

"If I were in the same situation as your fiancée... I wouldn't like hearing about other women."

"Is that so?"

"If I may suggest a solution, it would be better to keep some distance from women. And even if you do talk, it's best not to mention it to your fiancée."

"I guess so?"

From now on, he had to maintain a certain distance when meeting unfamiliar women.

Reed took note of the advice Phoebe had given him.

"Don't talk to women as much as possible, and don't tell anyone about it... Okay?."

As he was about to put down his pen, Phoebe exclaimed, "Ah," as if she had forgotten something.

She added as if she remembered something.

"Besides that, when that happens, you should act cute yourself."

"…Me?"
