The Cave King will live a Paradise Life -Becoming the strongest with the mining skill?-

"… so I'm going to show it as a country for now on the outside"

Under the world tree, I told those who were lords of the island.

Send Belfalto and his former slaves off the island and return their captives to the Dragon King... not only that, but now that the presence of this island has become bright on the Duchy ship, we do not know when visitors from outside will come again.

I can't send forward what to do with my visitors any more than this has happened.

Not only did we get rid of it by force, but we all decided to work out measures to show peaceful visitors how this island would look.

"I think it's dangerous to show it as it is..."

When Haines of Cobolt said so, Yerevan nodded in tune as well.

"I think so, too. They're going to come back for the gold and silver jewels."

Everyone is shaking their heads vertically, mostly.

Barris said to supplement.

"You'll have a problem selling it. It will take away the jobs of those who make mining their business on the continent, and there will be cities out there that will no longer stand financially. And if they find out all these jewels are buried, they're bound to invade some country."

"Then try not to spill gold and silver jewels outside... or sell small quantities for the same price as the continent... is that okay?

Riena speaks as everyone nods to my voice.

"It's important to hide the gold and silver gems, but I think it's also important to hide the cave itself. Make it a turtle stone that extends its life, a crystal that increases its magic, because I think it's worth more than a gem in a way."

"The resurrection stone, I want it because I can die, people are going to come..."

Everyone nodded, yeah, to the painfully laughing hule.

"Based on that too...... um"

Barris starts drawing something with a brush pen on a piece of paper on the table.

Is this the map of the city plan you showed me in the morning?

I thought we were talking about building a store for people coming from the outside...

Barris wrote more and more letters on the map like he saw the island from the sky.

Then point your finger at the area surrounding half the landfill on the wharf side and open your mouth.

"First the wharf side where the ship docks… why not create a commercial district here"

"Shigyuku?

Yerevan looked difficult and asked Barris.

There are other demons who lean their necks, whether it is a word they cannot hear.

Barris explained to such people so that they could understand.

"A commercial district is a place to do business, mainly in people's cities. Build shops, lodges, workshops for people coming from outside."

"I see..."

Barris shrugged even more when he saw the Yerevans looking convinced.

"Let's set up squares everywhere, with more focus near the wharf, and show visitors that it's quite a rich country. And this commercial district and the cave side are separated by walls… from here on out, the realm of our people in Cheol."

Barris showed the rest surrounded by walls.

"And in front of the cave entrance on the side of the wharf... this shall be our administrative district. Built in its center is the palace of our Lord, Palazzo Heel"

"Oh, you mean the king's mansion! That's great! Let's make something splendid!

When Yerevan stood up and grabbed his arm, the other demons responded well.

Riena follows it and suggests.

"Speaking of palaces...... gardens are good too!

"Oh, and a fountain or something? Let the duck float."

Yeah, next to the nodding hoole, Mappa shredded a chunk of iron in an instant with a knife, letting him create a small statue of a person.

"Is that the statue of Lord Heel?... I see you're making a statue of the king! Lord Mappa!"

To Ashton's inquiry, Mappa nods.

I was in a hurry while everyone was buzzing.

"Wait, wait! How can it be a palace if it's a good idea to create an administrative district? I haven't decided to make this country a kingdom yet..."

In my words, everybody says, "Huh?" and returned it.

…… If Lord Heel were our king, the kingdom he ruled, wouldn't it be normal for him to be a kingdom?

Ashton had a decent face and asked me.

"Yes, no, I am indeed the lord of this island... I have the consciousness of being everyone's representative. But I'm a king..."

I will protect everyone as lord...... I am ready for that.

But when you become king...

As a last bet, I want to stop naming the king.

My father would certainly not forgive me if he found out I had named the king.

If I could live with demons, I'd be sure to be angry.

But in case... as my last hope, I'd also like to bet on the possibility that my father would accept me and this island.

As long as my father admits to letting me live with demons on this island as one lord, that's fine. There is no vengeance on the kingdom, nor is there any territorial ambition for another country.

"Hmm...... I see. Given the relationship between the top and bottom, it's a little bad for Lord Heel to be the King."

Barris snorted deeply at me for drawing my intentions.

Ashton and Riena, too, find out about it, make a stiff face.

"Indeed, there is a problem in making Lord Heel king."

"Yeah. I think so, too. In the king, too rude..."

If my father is king, it doesn't make sense for me to call him king...

Riena is royal, and Ashton is near the king. I guess you know what the upward and downward relationship between parents and children is like.

Barris continues to tell me what to do.

"Let the king leave it to someone, or let it be vacant for a while. But even in a country without a king, I hear there is a palace. Isn't it okay to have a palace to show a single beauty?

Should there be a king even for a namesake… Indeed, everyone is able to recognize that the greatest of his tribes is the king.

Is Mappa interested in the throne, sending his gaze to me and everyone?

But no one notices it.

Nevertheless, my father wouldn't even allow someone who wasn't me to name the king of this island. This island is, for once, Kingdom territory. I don't want anything that doesn't work.

"That's right... I agree with the palace too. But let's stop beating the king..."

We should all continue to consult and decide... how about the Republic?

Cheol Republic...... yeah that sounds good.

Barris nodded, shifting his gaze to everyone.

"Yes, I did. Then the king shall be vacant. Let's get down to building administrative districts, including palaces, and you guys can do that, okay?

Everyone returned the word "no objection."

Discussions ensued on what cities to build.

The main decision is first and foremost that the entrance to the cave both be covered with buildings and be like a temple.

It was Barris' thought that if only the Islanders could get in, a sanctuary for the island...... then there would be an excuse to keep no one in the cave.

The world tree side also decides to basically keep it that way.

Other detailed proposals included the creation of hot springs in commercial districts and the public offering of flag designs.

I agree on most of that on a large scale, and the meeting is over.

At the end of the meeting, Barris asked me to check.

"Good day, Lord Heel. So here's a letter for you to give to Lord Belfalto..."

Barris showed me the letter.

I asked Barris to write what I asked for.

This one exercised force against the people of your country only in defense.

My country is not willing to antagonize the Dragon Kingdom, and this time things will not be taken as a declaration of war, and the prisoners will be returned.

Hopefully, in the future, we will propose to control piracy together as a responsible State and conclude national transport and inviolability agreements…

I guess there's no such thing as a destination because it's a draft.

We don't know the name of the king of the dragon kingdom in the first place, so we don't know it unless we ask Belfalt.

I have no problem with the content at all.

I snort at Barris.

"Perfect. It's not high-pressure, it's not demanding... if it's not such a short-tempered country, it won't make you feel bad."

"Now, here's where I'm going to be in the Qing Dynasty. And Lord Berphalt..."

"Are you sure?

"Yeah. He really wants to give back the ship he used. They'll be back here again after returning the prisoners."

"Right... but he won't have any money either..."

"Yes, I've told you that too, and I've said no many times, but I really don't give in."

That's a really thick one... but even though we're losing ship and loads.

I got two ships this way, and I'm not in trouble for any money. No need to thank me.

Barris then suggests.

"... Then why don't you ask Lord Belfalt to buy it out, just like Lord Camus? If you pay the money for the purchase and the fee, he will have a benefit too. The ship is going to be on loan, and we're going to have to ask for a deal for a while."

"I see... good idea. So please."

"Ha."

Barris bowed his head deeply.

"No...... but don't really rely on Barris. Thanks for guessing earlier."

"That was... rather unaware and very rude"

"You have nothing to apologize for, do you? Keep it coming, Barris."

"Ha. Now, I will have a letter and money to give to Lord Belfalto as soon as possible. Sailing looks like tomorrow, so let's load supplies and repair ships until then."

"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm going mining. I'll take care of the rest."

"is, heels… Your Majesty"

So Barris went to the ship early.

Your Majesty... are you only going to call me King?

Well, I don't care what you call it inside.

Nevertheless, I need you to refrain from doing so in front of those outside... especially in front of the Kingdoms.

At this time, I went back to mining with that in mind.

Along the way, the users of Barris were asked to confirm the gold coins to be given to Belfalto and the purity of the letter.

But I had my hands dirty with rocks, so I asked them to read the amount and the contents of the letter.

There's nothing wrong with the money because it's not the same amount as it was in the letter.

When I asked the user to give it to Belfort, I went back to mining immediately.

The next day, a ship aboard which Belfalto and his former slaves sail Cheol.

We dropped off the Dragon King's prisoner and the ship that had some money loaded.

Then there was also a voice of gratitude from the ship.

"Hey, those were really nice people."

Belfalto was alone in the captain's office, calculating the gold deposited by the heels.

A bag about a person's head is filled with gold coins.

There was no engraving on the gold coin, it seemed brand new, but it was enough to show that it was fine gold even in Belfalto.

"Still, it's an amazing amount of gold... I've been asked to do a lot of things, but honestly it could be hard to spend this much..."

I was told that the remaining money could be paid as a commission, but I was only going to get a fair fare and give it back to the heels.

When Belfalto locks a bag of gold coins into a locked box, he also tries to get a round letter from the heels on his desk.

Belfalto shrugged as he looked behind a letter written in Burleon.

"... Cheol” Empire ”? It could also be a good trading partner for the merchants of the Republic of Amoris"

Thus Cheol passed on to the outside as the Cheol Empire and Heel as its emperor.
