"Ah, you didn't do that in the morning, did you?

Suddenly appearing, Hule blinked at the huge building on the wharf side.

"Ah, ah. It shouldn't have been daytime....."

I opened my eyes several times and answered.

I woke up in the cave bedroom today and went to the basement right away, so I only came to the ground for lunch. No, it was only the world tree that went out for a few days.

In any case, I don't think there was a place like this.

"... hmm? He is."

As he stood up, a man approached from the building.

"Mappa...."

"No, I'm wearing a bow tie around my neck today. It doesn't suit me at all."

Hule was right, Mappa had a bow tie on his neck. The person sees us looking at the tie and looks kind of familiar.

Yeah, it doesn't suit me. If you're wearing it, why don't you wear some clothes...

When Mappa stopped in front of us, he turned his right hand to his chest and his left hand to his back and bowed lovingly.

"What's the matter, Mappa? So, what about this building?

When I ask, Mappa invites.

You mean follow me because I'll explain.

I'll follow you with Foulet, Taran, Siel, and Number 15.

As soon as I left the entrance, I noticed that there was a considerable distance to the building.

It seems that the distance could not be grasped because of the large building.

Between the entrance and the building, there was a marble fountain, a flower bed, and a beautiful garden with an east house. There are street lights lined with sparkling stones at equal intervals, and it looks like a pond just beyond.

Looking back, the entrance area is covered with shrine-like buildings.

The garden and entrance were lined with fine marble statues. Some of them have statues of gold and silver.

"Well, Barris told me to make this a palace...."

To show the richness of the country, he said he wanted to create a luxurious palace for everyone.

The garden alone is already too luxurious...

It's not as big as it is, but it's definitely more luxurious than the gardens of the Kingdom's palaces.

We arrive in front of the building.

"Oh, this is four floors... no, five floors."

I looked at the vertically arranged windows and said so.

But the window is twice the height of a person's back.

A hierarchy may be twice as large.

The palace of the kingdom is much higher than the height.

The marble staircase before entering the building was large enough for twenty people to lie side-by-side.

"Wonderful stairs... Okay, let's go in. I mean, can't you?

When I tried to get up the stairs, Mappa stood in front of me.

When she saw her fingers spinning around, she said she was going to put them in from the front.

"This old man really cares about the details..."

Hule looked dissatisfied and said.

"Well, I guess you want me to look in the front..."

We'll bypass the building as Mappa says.

You can also see things like a marble pier on the sea side.

"Even if it's too luxurious, it's not good. You've come to the front."

There was no garden on the front side. There's just a big plain right now.

As always, the walls of the palace display elaborate decorative columns and statues, but gold is not used as in the backyard.

"You look calm now. Yeah?"

In front of the palace were Riena and Barris.

We hurry back to them.

"Oh, both of you. Did Riena know?

Then Riena nodded.

"Barris proposed to surprise everyone."

"Barris? I wish I didn't have to do that... by the way, how do you do this in one day?

When I asked, Barris smiled happily.

"You can't do as much as you want in a day. So I've been working on it for a few days."

"A few days ago? I didn't see anything like this."

"I was covering it up with magic. You've learned the magic of pseudo-magic from Master Elt. When the heels came through, they made buildings and gardens look like the original landscape."

"That magic... was deceived."

"Cheeks. Looks like I'm beginning to be able to handle my magic."

Barris laughed with joy.

[Magic King] is a crest that can have a huge amount of magic.

As soon as possible, Barris may be able to outperform my magic skills....

With that in mind, I looked up at the palace again.

"No, but I was really surprised. But you're still inside, aren't you?

"No, I've already brought the furniture and decorations Mappa made to each room. However, there are still fabric products and carpets and curtains are not in time."

"I can't help it. Well, let's take a look inside."

"Yes, I would love to. Princess, can I ask you a favor?

"Yes, heel, this way."

Barris tells me that Riena will guide me.

Goblin opened a huge golden door as he climbed the stairs in his backyard.

Then, all of a sudden, you enter a huge space.

"Oh, is this the hall?

"Yes. Is it a ritual, a dance...? According to Barris, it's a place for such events."

"I see... the ceiling is blowing through? No, is that glass?

Looking up at the ceiling, it was a huge glass dome.

It's beautiful, but it looks scary if it cracks....

Riena tells me that you heard my voice.

"Rest assured. It's made of Leviathan scales."

"Leviathan's scale. Then I feel safe."

Not at all, but it's impossible to break it. Mappa used them to make glasses, but they worked well here.

"Next door is the conference room. We also have rooms for each department to work in."

That's what Riena said, pointing to the hallway that extends from the hall.

The hallways are wide and decorated with vases and statues.

And in the back of the hall was a staircase, and on top of it was a luxurious chair... a chair with gold and silver and jewelry.

Riena says I'm watching it.

"That's the throne. For Heel to sit down."

"Again, you've made it quite luxurious..."

"It's only natural that you're the emperor. Please have a seat."

"Hmm. Well, you really made it...."

I went slowly to the throne.

By sitting there, I will be seen as the king of this country by various foreign countries. Every word I say over there could change the fate of the island ─ ─ I think that makes things a little more difficult.

But I swore to be the emperor to protect everyone. I'm sitting on the throne now.

I tried never to go up the stairs.

But there's something passing by me like the wind.

When I followed it with my eyes, there was a Mappa sitting on the throne.

"Hey! That's where Heel-sama sits!?

As Hule said, Mappa sat on the throne with great care.

"Hey, get off! Then I'd like to sit down too!

Foulet desperately tried to force such a mapper down.

You just wanted to sit down. Or do you want to say that you're the greatest... no, that's fine.

Well, maybe you're not too upset.

Riena tells the contending Mappa and Hule.

"Fu, both of you. Please let Heel-sama sit down."

"No, Liena. It doesn't matter who sat there. I'll just sit down if I have to."

Yes, I can only act as emperor when I need to. You can continue to make decisions with everyone on this island. If I'm in trouble, I'll count on everyone.

I left the palace, thanking my inner Mapa.
