Extremely Busy
At that time
I was still young
With my parents, we went to the central square of the royal capital.
To put it bluntly, as a child, I had no interest in politics.
Why were there so many people in the square?
Why were my parents so happy?
Why is that man on his knees?
I didn't understand.
But it didn't matter.
The sight I saw was too divine
There was a huge wyvern in front of Emperor Giran.
At its feet was a man in a white robe.
On the kneeling emperor's head, he puts a dazzlingly shining crown
Then the emperor rises and turns to us
Everyone gathered in the square raised their voices in joy
It was so loud that it hurt my ears.
And the bell rings
It was the beginning of the imperial reign.
On that day, I witnessed history change.
A few years later
I learned that the person who crowned the emperor is called the Imperial Dragon.
-----------------
-Empire, Year 1-
"Shiro-san! From today onwards, it's the imperial reign!"
Wince speaks to me with the most exuberant smile on her face.
"That's right! It is amazing!"
"Well, it's amazing, isn't it? I heard that the Imperial Dragon has almost the same authority as the emperor!"
"That's right! It is amazing!"
"For now, do you want to go on a trip?"
"That's right! It is impossible!"
I have things to do.
So much to do.
When I turned my attention outside
There are a lot of people running around.
And we're busy doing paperwork.
The house is being shaded
I don't know why.
"Kadaza is going to be the capital of the empire, that's nothing but harassment!"
The city called Kadaza disappears from the map
This is the Imperial Capital and the Dragon Capital from this day forward
It changed its name to Fafna
And to be an Imperial Capital, it needed a castle
It is currently under construction by gathering intelligent people from all over the continent.
"Shiro-sama! This design proposal is...!"
"Shiro-sama! My plan is better than his plan...!"
"Shiro-sama! My design is better than those guys...!"
Everyone rushes to get their design adopted
Fortunately or unfortunately, Yukikaze brought the airships she built for the construction of the huge building.
10 ships
Thanks to them, it was already bigger than Berdreich's castle.
It's only been five months since Giran became emperor.
"Shiro-san, do you think we should make it bigger?"
"I don't need it! This is enough! What's the point of making it any bigger!"
"Eh? But I heard that this castle is Emperor Giran's castle?"
"…Ha?"
"I heard they planned to build a Dragon Castle right behind the Emperor's castle?"
"…Are they building two castles?"
"I heard so. Kadaza is a vast basin, so there is still plenty of land to spare, you know?"
"Yes! Cancel! Cancel the two castles! One is enough!"
------------
Canceled by the authority of the Imperial Dragon!
I don't need such a huge thing!
But it sounds like I said it wrong
Three months later
It turned out worse than I expected.
"Hahaha... that's not it..."
It was too surreal that I couldn't even scream anymore.
A huge temple was built in front of me.
"Ah! Dragon-sama!"
Someone looks at me and shouts
"Um... hello..."
"Look! We built it with you in mind, Dragon-sama!"
I see! That's awesome!
Worst of all.
The cancellation of the construction of the second castle
I canceled it because I was worried about the burden on the people.
It changed to a favorable opinion of the people
Then donations came in from all over the continent.
[If we can't build a castle, let's at least build a temple.]
The general consensus was that
"I'm getting scared that whatever I say is going to be converted into a favorable opinion."
"It's the result of Shiro-san's actions up until now."
"It's still more modest than my castle, which is good..."
Before I knew it, the first emperor, Giran, who was next to me, was also exhausted.
Not physically, but mentally.
"What is this... how did this happen..."
"Is Giran in some kind of trouble?"
"Increase in number of marriage partners"
"Ha? What happened?"
"It's your Yukikaze and Ginkei's fault!"
Even if I get yelled at like that, I don't care, because I had nothing to do with it.
"Tenrei's daughter. Do you know a woman named Shovu?"
"The youngest daughter?"
"Yes. She will become the second empress."
No, that wouldn't be possible
Giran is a human and Shovu is a fox person.
Even if a child is born, there is no future for it
"I know what you're going to say, but Yukikaze and Ginkei prepared a solution."
"What kind of solution?
Giran shows me a glass vial
Inside was a clear purple liquid.
"If you drink this before the deed, a child will not be born as a mixed one."
Why was such a thing made
The first cause is the large amount of materials brought from Suitka.
The old man that worked for Prelati had just breathed his last.
Yukikaze and Ginkei saw it all
The second reason is that Ginkei was able to decipher it.
The third reason is that Yukikaze was able to understand Ginkei's story.
The fourth reason was the unification of the continent.
With the unification, the races of the continent became mixed.
And there were many who fell in love between races
And to settle their anxiety about the birth of mixed ones
"Will it work?"
"Ginkei says it won't cause any biological problems."
"That makes me worry"
"I have a good report to ease your anxiety a little, do you want to hear it?"
"I'd love to"
"Mother is pregnant."
It was about Sylvie getting pregnant with her second child.
"I hope this will solve the problem of successors in the Bardonacia region."
There is much to know about the empire since it became an empire. So many reports.
All the information that has been kept by the four kings until now is getting passed on to us.
"It's killing my head. Too much information..."
"Anyway, I have no choice but to quickly finish one by one."
Giran talked for a while and then returned to the castle.
"Wince"
"What is it?"
"Am I going to live in this temple from today?"
"We too, you know?"
I see.
I'm not sure I'm comfortable living in a place this fancy.
My life is definitely going to be difficult from now on.
