The people who stepped past the walls and moat at the western part of the Sanctuary were uniformly wide eyed in amazement.
「……Drehd, isn’t this completely different from the previous observation?」
「……quite so.」
「Your Majesty, would that be the place we would stay at? It is quite the splendid building.」
King Lomaria and Prime Minister Drehd were surprised to see the Dejima and accommodations the last time the Trination came to observe. The Queen was genuinely delighted with the extravagant lodge.
Because it was a secluded area, the royalty and nobles were permitted to bring their attendants and escorting knights.
The accommodation built with great attention to detail by Takumi and the Dwarves was so breathtaking even for Royalty.
「Your Majesty, the comfortability of this sofa…… it is magnificent. Could we ask if we could buy it?」
「Fumu……it definitely is extraordinary.」
Checking in and relaxing in a luxurious room, King and Queen Lomaria were amazed at the various furnishing of the room and by the quality of the bed and sofa.
The day after King Lomaria arrived at the Sanctuary’s accommodation, Valkyra Kingdom’s royalty, Margrave Volton, and Earl Rockford arrived at the Sanctuary.
「……oi oi, Simon. Did the Sanctuary have a place this luxurious to stay at?」
「……No, it did not exist when I visited last time.」
「Your Majesty, it is quite marvelous. Could the building itself be adorned with sculptures and designs even more elaborate than those in the Royal Castle?」
King Valkyra, Prime Minister Simon, and the Queen who alighted from the carriage were absolutely sparkling in delight at the extravagance of the structure.
When Margrave Volton and Earl Rockford, who arrived slightly later than King Valkyra, entered the lodge, Madam Rose and Emilia shrieked in excitement.
「Kyaa! Mother! A cat! There’s a cat!」
「Oh my! How cute!」
「Rose, Emilia, settle down!」
In front of the excited Madam Rose and Emilia were Cat Siths working as the staff of the lodge.
「Haa, Rose, Emilia, those children are Cat Sith tribe. They are a race that are rarely seen in this continent.」
「As expected of the Sanctuary. It wouldn’t be strange for the rare races to be here.」
Once they finished checking in, Margrave Volton and Earl Rockford were guided to their respective rooms. They, too, were amazed at the rooms that were more splendorous than their own mansions.
There was some who couldn’t calm down in their extravagant room.
「Hey, Martha. Is it really okay for us to stay a room like this?」
「Takumi-chan guided us here so it’s okay. I guess we wouldn’t have to meet the important people if we have room service.」
Vanga and Martha of Bohd Village were picked up by Takumi, brought to the Sanctuary, and checked into one of the rooms.
The grade of the room was lower than those for royalty and nobility, but the room which was still more extravagant than the luxury inns in Volton and the Royal Capital was a first for the couple who had never left Bohd Village.
Having received an explanation on how to use the bath and toilet from Takumi, they sat down on the extremely comfortable sofa, drank high quality black tea, and did their best to calm down.
Papeck and Thomas of Papeck Company, now one of the leading trading company in Valkyra Kingdom, were, of course, not phased, but even so, they were still captivated by the never before seen gothic-style buildings and artistic sculptures.
「……Thomas, do you think they would trade with our company?」
「……these are quite the magnificent furnishing and sculptures. Perhaps Iruma-sama was not the only one, the Dwarven masters must have also been involved.
「……Takumi-sama is busy so that would be impossible. No, if it’s just a few…… but, I can’t say that it is for our company……」
Papeck stared intently at the furnishings, sculptures, and the structures, talking to himself as he walked aimlessly inside the lodge.
「Mr. President, please calm down. The objective this time is Iruma-sama’s wedding. Please save such talks for another occasion.」
「Mu, hmmmm~ you have a point. It can’t be helped.」
Warned by Thomas, Papeck reluctantly returned to their room. His indomitable spirit for commerce would likely get carried away with appealing to Takumi after the wedding.
