Chapter 179: The unexpected

Do you want to be king Nito?

William looked serious when he asked this.

Yes..What?

I agreed out of shock but a beat later realized that I had made a mistake.

Roberts is also involved in this but with Nito as king I plan to establish a country.

I see.A country?

This has become a mess, right after I became a great mage Im supposed to be a king? I mean I guess that I technically am considered a country now but isnt actually creating one on a whole other level?

Therefore, I would like Nito to provide the funding we will need to create the country and then you can leave the rest to Roberts and I. Although if you dont trust us you could also come with us.

I figured that would be the case, you need money to do anything in the world.

How long does it take to establish a country?

If you provide us with some more Old Gert then we will have the funds necessary. After that I say it would probably be possible in the next 10 years.

10 years!?

Yes.

Can a whole country be created in just 10 years?

A king plays an important role when founding a country. After all who would want to live in a country where they dont know anyone?

I guess not.

With Nito as king we will definitely be able to establish a new country within 10 years.

If Im the king I mean Bell did say that my existence is powerful or something. Around that time Francesca stood up suddenly.

I would love to! Would you mind making me a part of this!?

Huh?

That was a little sudden.

Nito! Can you hire me as a secretary once you become king?!

What?

I can also serve as your PR. Im sure that I can be of service!

Oi Francesca, What about Magical communication!? We still have other interviews to do!?

Dolly tried to reason with her.

What are you talking about Dolly?! How long do you plan to stay at this low paying job!? If Nito is going to become a king then we have no choice but to ride this wave of good fortune!

Apparently Francesca wants to quit working for magical communication.

We should make use of Magical communication!

Or not, I guess she plans to use it. Although, I really just wanted to go on an adventure not live a life of luxury. Although making a country might not be so bad, it would give Sufilia and Nem a place. Although Toa is the princess of the demon kingdom so Im not too sure what I should do about that.

Lord Nito, would you please make me queen?

Sufilia said this rather suddenly without a trace of embarrassment.

Nem is the queen!!

Nem, talk or eat, pick one.

Nem was still shoving meat into her mouth as she was trying to talk. I guess it would be a good idea to decide now, William said that all I would have to do is provide the money and then Francesca will spread the news. With that I wouldnt actually have to do anything and could just continue my adventure with these three. And then later on the country will be finished. I really have to stop being so indecisive about things so I pulled three black rings out of my storage.

William, You take these two. Keep one for yourself and give the other to Roberts.

Got it.

William was already smiling again.

Francesca you take the other.

T, Thank you.

They all seemed to know what the rings were.

Its a telepathic ring. If you wear it then I will be other to know where you are and teleport to you at any time.

These are custom made products that I got from the three dwarves.

William, Francesca.

What should I say? I guess just a short reply is best?

Okay thenI have a request.

Should I make them bow for the first time?

Make me king

William was smiling while Francesca seemed highly motivated for some reason.

Okay then, I will put in a request at the architects association.

So thats where its going to begin huh?

Looks like were going to be busy.

Francescas eyes looked more fierce than ever before.

Okay, Ill get in touch with Roberts and get started.

From adventurer to hero to great mage and the next step is king.

Okay, we should make the castle real flashy. A single bottle of wine sells for 100 billion so as long as there is more wine there will always be more money.

Always be more money?

William looked confused.

While youre looking for an architect can you find a mage that can use restoration magic?

UhmSure?

I took out the Old Gert for clarity.

To start with I think we should build an Old Gert Winery and vineyard.

I see.

I have quite a bit of wine but if we sell it all it will disappear. So we have to be able to produce it first. I learned recently about restoration magic. Magic that can restore something to its previous state. I cant use it, but if you find someone who can then it would be possible to make this wine into what it was before it was liquified and bottled.

William seemed to be thinking about what I said with a serious look on his face.

I see, well anything is worth trying once. I dont have the knowledge for it but maybe we can hire someone who does.

We talked about several things involving creating a country including my plans to mass produce old Gert.

Although for now, lets keep up the pretense that Old Gert is a wine that no longer exists. If the world finds out about the inventory that we have then its value will decrease. We can develop the winery later on as an asset to the country. Also, make sure that the selling price for each bottle is 100 billion.

Suddenly I was worrying about money. I felt like I was the CEO of Asahi, just spouting out ideas once after the other. Although I will be king so I should just say whatever comes to mind and let William figure it out. Hes pretty smart after all.

Okay, please do that then.

Did I talk a little too much? The two of them looked surprised.

I see..Got it, Ill let Roberts know.

You plan to get rich off of wine? As expected of Nito!

Nito, where do you intend to create the country?

Where?.

That is a good question, where would be a good place. Maybe next to the demon country?

We can talk about that later, but for now I need to talk to Roberts.

Okay, should I teleport you to Week?

No its not a problem. I can teleport as well.

Hes pretty versatile. It seemed like William and Francesca were now planning to head to Week.

So are you going to go form that alliance then?

Oh right, I should probably go do that.

Probably.

Everyone here looked a little tired. But still Nem, Sufilia, Toa and I headed for the royal castle.
