Reiner increasingly felt that it was not enough for him to carry out infrastructure construction alone.

Although he has enormous magic power and can quickly build a small building or a bridge, now that he has established a country, there will definitely be a lot of places that need construction in the future.

After thinking it over, he found Fiona who was in a meeting.

Recently, she has been holding various large and small meetings almost every day.

It turned out that after winning the battle, Reiner allocated nearly 400 square miles of primeval forest to the west of the forest to the orcs for development.

She needed to hold a meeting with the chiefs and planned to allow some clans to continue expanding westward.

Development definitely requires cutting down trees, which requires the permission of the elves, and there is also the issue of ensuring food supply... She is getting busier and busier now.

After waiting for a long time in front of the Orcs' Council Hall, Reiner finally met Fiona.

She walked towards home dejectedly and did not notice Reiner standing under the tree.

It was not until she heard approaching footsteps that she turned around in a daze.

"You ignored me again. I was standing under the tree just now, and you didn't even see it." Reiner chased her and elbowed her twice.

"Lord Reiner? Why are you here?" Fiona's eyes flashed with fatigue. "Sorry, I'm really tired. I've been running around all day today. I wanted to go back and rest early."

Having said that, she narrowed her eyes again and asked meaningfully, "Are you free tonight?"

(Sorry! I was so busy yesterday that I didn’t even take a shower! If only Reiner-sama had told me in advance…)

Her cheeks flushed, but her tone was tired.

Reiner was a little worried about her. If she continued like this, she would eventually collapse from exhaustion.

"You've been so tired lately, so forget it. Get some rest. I came to see you for another reason." Reiner walked up behind her and rubbed her shoulders. "Your clan is called the Rock Clan. Is there any meaning behind this name?"

Fiona tilted her head and thought for a moment, as if lost in thought: "When I was a child living in the North, I asked my father why the clan was called this name.

He said that hundreds of years ago, our clan actually lived in the northwesternmost part of the continent, where there were many towering mountains, and our tribe was built among them, so it was called this name.

Our Rock Clan was once the most powerful orc clan, but has declined in the past decade or so."

Reiner sighed.

It turned out that he had misunderstood.

"I thought with your name, there would be many orcs who can use rock magic. It seems I was overthinking it."

Fiona shook her head. "I didn't think much about it. My father said that most of us orcs have a talent for using rock magic, but rock magic has been lost... My father and I only know how to use black magic."

"How did it get lost?"

"Fifty years ago, the previous priest lost many important items during the tribe's migration due to war, including the magic book that recorded rock magic.

Although that priest did try to make amends and taught magic to many priest candidates, most of them later died in the rebellion, and the few who survived chose to join the Black Wolf Clan.

Fiona yawned after she finished speaking.

The chat had already arrived at Fiona's door.

Reiner walked in naturally and continued chatting with her: "You've seen me use rock magic, right? You should come to me directly to learn."

"It's mainly because I don't have time." Fiona lowered her head and started to twist her body awkwardly. "Besides..."

"And what?"

"I... I'm afraid Lord Reiner will find me annoying." Fiona's cheeks flushed slightly.

"No, I can teach you as soon as I have time." Reiner propped up his chin and looked at her, "Besides, after establishing a kingdom, there will be many times when you need to build things. You can't just build a house with wood, right?

The elves being unhappy is just a minor issue; the most important thing is their low efficiency and mediocre structural strength. A strong wind would blow the house away."
