Chapter 189. Daily life on a day when she doesn't want to work.

I'm not even thinking about escaping anyway.

“I thought about it in the carriage before. It's built pretty well. Isn't it better built here than your royal capital?”

You have good eyesight.

Being praised like that made me feel a little proud.

“How does it compare to the imperial ecliptic?”

“...It's frustrating, but I can't help but say it's better.”

That's right.

This is because I have mobilized all my taste and architectural knowledge that I can mobilize.

I am confident that I will never be inferior to any capital city in the world. Above all, the empire's ecliptic has been built for over a hundred years.

Of course, there is no way I can compete with my newly born city.

“...But I think the road is too long'?”

However, the princess, who admired other things, seemed to feel a sense of discomfort while walking along the roadside.

As she pointed out, the roads in Fahilia are quite wide compared to other cities.

This is one of the minor differences that I made because I gave instructions one by one, contrary to the common sense of common architects.

“I made it wider on purpose.”

“Is it too wide for a wagon?”

“Broader is better.”

How much will the interior of the city be activated in the future?

And considering what will be put in, this amount is appropriate.

If it's not wide, isn't it ambiguous to do expansion work later?

“I don't know what's going to happen here later.”

To her, who didn't understand, I joked around that I would know naturally when the time came.

Little things like the width of the roadside are fine.

“Where shall we go first...?”

Where would be the best place to take Pena and guide her?

After thinking about it for a while, we stopped in front of a bookstore that opened in the city.

“....ah. Come to think of it, there really was.”

As I happened to look at the bookseller, I just remembered something that bothered me.

Shall we just check it for a while while we're here?

“Would you like to look around the bookstore for a moment?”

“It doesn't matter... A book?”

Responding okay, Pena, like me, turned her eyes toward the store where the books were displayed.

“Aren’t there any books in the castle?”

“There are many books in my library. But that's not the only reason I go to see them.”

“Hey?”

“And most of the things in my castle are old books or something... technology-related books and sorcery books. In general, there aren't that many books circulating among the common people.”

Of course, it is a secret about the books that I personally collect.

“When you visit a place like this, sometimes you find something interesting.”

I won't tell you what kind of book it is.

I'm sure you'll get angry if I tell you.

However, Pena showed interest differently from before, as if she was reacting to being purely interested.

Even if I lived a life that was far from the concept of playing, I would have read at least.

“Then shall I take a look?”

So, we decided to stop by the bookstore first.

Regarding the Kingdom of Ernesia and other neighboring countries, if I had to pick one of the things that changed the most after I came to power as a lord, there would be many things.

If I had to choose one really subtle change among them, I would choose this place.

It was a change in booksellers who deal with books.

“Just a few years ago it was all made of parchment or poor quality paper.”

In addition, the book itself was quite expensive because it was difficult to make.

It was an item that had no reason to come into contact with unless you were a nobleman or a moderately wealthy merchant.

On the contrary, there were many geeks who set up booksellers with the meaning of collecting rather than trading.

That's why the bookstore that handles books.... In particular, they say that this kind of bookstore that they are in the middle of the day.

“Right now, I can’t find anything made of parchment on the contrary.”

All thanks to my paper.

As paper was cheap and common, the book situation in the Kingdom of Ernesia changed drastically.

Most of the books in circulation now are made with paper produced in our territory.

However, the printing problem has not been solved yet, so books are still expensive.

“Hey, is that so?”

“Do you think that will work?”

Back then, I was busy skipping classes.

The plan for the development of the territory was made only after coming here.

It's true.

And most of my development plans are improvised, driven by my desires.

This is the basic policy.

“Wow... that’s ridiculous. Wow Wow Ah ....

Every time Pena turns the page, I continued to admire it in an undesirable sense.

“Nonsense.”

A book like this.

The more I read, the more I understood that Pena's face was getting tired.

At this point, it's just a scam. I have to beautify it as well.

But it's not like I want to do this.

“Don’t read that in front of me before then.

Because I feel like I'm going to turn around because I'm ashamed.”

“Even if you told me about it... Arel, you wrote it, didn’t you?”

“Absolutely not.”

I can't stand this kind of misunderstanding.

“I wasn't the one who thought of this in the first place....

First of all, in the mood of making excuses, I put the names of the things I insisted on publishing this absurd book.

“The one who thought of this was the Marquis Karet... and my uncle Richen Igerd.”

“The Ernesia Bank President and... are the nobles who run the Arnil Chamber of Commerce, right? year? He must have been your uncle.”

Hmmm... Do you know the approximate names of the people around me?

It's surprising to think that you didn't know anything about me when you first met at the palace.

Could it be that you did some research on me in that brief moment?

“As you said, this is what the two of them struggled to do.”

In order to make my name known and expand my business, I have to become more famous or something.

So I ended up publishing this absurd autobiography.

He persuaded me so terribly that after ten days, I finally gave up and gave him permission.

What's even funnier is that I didn't write this.

No matter how shameless I was, there was no way I could write something like this casually.

Who really wrote this?

Who the hell wrote that a third of the book is a tribute to me?

If this came out in an era where civilization was developed to some extent, it would have been treated as a disturbing book right away.

“so? Did it work?”

After that, those two people said they couldn't bear to carry their faces in front of me.

I was too embarrassed to lift my face.

I like to stand out.

But that doesn't mean I don't like being stared at in such an embarrassing way.

It's a shame that I feel the same as everyone else!!

I'm not happy that you're doing this.

That's how I received this book and said that I kicked the blanket all night.

Well... that's another black history.

that's life

Now I'm even looking forward to what the next dark history will be.

“so? Did you come to check this out of curiosity?”

“...it bothered me a little.”

As expected, the feeling of kicking the blanket beyond imagination made me sad.

“And that's not the only thing that bothers me.”

I opened my embarrassing book and pointed.

Pena said, “Because you read it already?” I said, furrowing my brow, and I corrected myself.

“Exactly look at how I printed this letter. Is it not uniform?”

“...what about that... huh? Uniform?”

Only then did Pena realize a sense of incongruity, look at the embarrassing book as if taking half of it, and flip it over.

“...It's not a transcription, and it doesn't seem to be a typeface either?”

“Isn’t it normal to notice that when you see it?”

Does it mean that only the eyes that see are as certain as they have been through education for gifted children?

Surprisingly, this princess isn't bad at all.

If I say swipe 10, 4 of them? 5 notices
