For a few days from the day I saw the palace, I was expanding the cave where the seven stones were dug.

When I returned to the ground in the middle of the day when nothing happened, Riena called out.

"Dear Heel! Finally, the Commercial District and the Administrative District are finished."

Oh, well, let's go and have a look.

"Sure, after hearing the opinions of the Principality and Lord Sierre and the others, it has become quite splendid!

I'm looking forward to it.

I hurried along with Riena to the part of Sheol that belonged to the City.

First pass through the previous palace.

The path through the interior of the palace is on either side of the central staircase, so there is no need to bypass as before.

Leaving the palace and entering the square, the scenery was clearly different from before.

"Oh, this is it!

There was already something to call a splendid city.

There are four or five storeys lined up that cannot defeat King's Landing.

All buildings are made of stone.

I could see marble, gray rocks, painted rocks, white and beige walls.

The roof as a whole appears to be made of orange tiles.

"I guess you've already made it so colorful..."

"Until now, it was all white and gray. According to Siel, there seems to have been a savings of paint in the underground city, so I used it. The paint didn't seem rotten."

"I see.... so here it is."

"This is the administrative district, right? The buildings are divided by the work that each person is responsible for."

"You mean the ministry. No, I didn't expect this in a few days...."

The walls of the building were each decorated with fine sculptures.

The Ikari symbol belongs to the Kamu division in charge of the ship and navy, and the sword and shield belong to the military director Yerevan... so we can see what kind of division each building is.

"Ciel and the Empire have joined us a lot... it seems that some of us were involved in architecture. In cooperation with Mr. Mappa, water and sewerage systems have also been developed. I don't know if sewage will be incinerated or disposed of..."

"Ah, to the tap... it's exhausting."

"Can you see inside the building?

"No, they're not used to it yet, and I feel like I'm going to see them if I need anything."

"Now let's go through the residential area to the commercial area beyond the walls!

Ah.

We go through the northern residential area next to the administrative district.

Walking down the avenue, I noticed not only street lights, but also street trees and flower beds.

There are fountains and waterways everywhere, and the sound of water flowing is beautiful.

The neighborhood was also quite splendid. Similar to the administrative district, there are many buildings with more than three floors.

Riena looked at the residential area and said.

"The Principality and the Underground Empire still want to live here more than in a cave."

"Man wants sunlight."

Well, I prefer the basement...

"The houses are arranged so as to surround the courtyard squarely with each compartment. It's like growing plants in the garden!

"The King's Capital was made the same way. I hope it's a place to rest."

As I walked through the residential area, I saw a kind of splendid castle gate.

A marble gate with two roofed towers and splendid statues and pillars.

"Oh, you've made the castle gate a great place too... if you get out of here, it's a commercial district"

"Yes! And it spreads right in front of me..."

Walking through the castle gate, there was a large square. There is a huge fountain in the center and a square overlooking the sea. Of course, even the buttocks of the giant Mappa statue can be firmly seen.

"Wow...."

"It's Sheol's entrance! The merchants who came to Sheol will spend most of their time here."

According to Riena, basically, only this commercial district can accommodate non-residents.

Speaking of which, Barris said he wanted to show the richness of the island by making it luxurious.

For this reason, the building facing the square in particular has become luxurious.

I saw something like a big bell tower or a clock tower.

"There are shops, lodgings, and more. It's just...."

I somehow understood what Riena had to say.

"I don't know what to sell...."

"Yes, I've decided to sell fish and rocks, but I've heard from Heel before."

Selling Sheol's gold and silver gems can have a significant impact on continental prices and the economy.

Also, stones with great effects, such as metallurgical stones, cannot be sold because they may be abused.

Then it becomes a fish or a rock.

The branches of the world's trees seem nice, but I'm worried about the price of timber on the continent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I've been thinking a lot... it looks like Mappa is trying to sell it."

Riena pointed to a building with a chimney in the corner of the commercial district.

I wonder if that's Mappa's forgery.

So that's.....

What was placed was a statue that mimicked Mappa.

Mostly stone statues, but they're trying to sell them....

No, as I said before, it's very elaborate.

But who will buy it....

Well, if you look at the giant Mappa statue, some people might buy it as a souvenir that mimics the iconic city.

"... oh, but the crafts might be nice. The crafts of the branches of the world tree."

"That's good! The wooden bracelets were popular between us and the goblins."

"I think the kingdom will like it. But you want something more...."

Fish, rocks, crafts... maybe a little less attractive as a merchant.

The vineyards are being expanded to grow grapes to make wine, but it takes time to grow.

I want something else that could be said to be a specialty of the island.

"That's right... hey, Riena. The leaves of the world tree were made into tea, right?

"Yes, you can keep it on fire or ferment it for tea."

"The leaves of the world trees always fall. Why don't you make it tea? Why don't you make a place to serve tea? People in the kingdom don't drink much tea, but if the taste is good, it may become popular."

"I thought it was a good idea! Food and beverages will have little impact on the lives of the kingdoms."

"Okay, let's do that. Let's try to devise a container."

This is how we decided to create Sheol's specialty.

At that time, however, a man in the basement was visiting the island again.
