The wedding was less than a week away.
　The city of Avalon was getting livelier and livelier.

　In the midst of all this, I was in my office, frowning at a story Eliza had brought to me.

"Is that true?
"Yes, I just saw it with my own eyes a few minutes ago. It's great, because I'd offer you 10 times as much and you'd say no.
"Inn, ka

　Eliza has a story to tell, that all the inns in Avalon are nearly full.

　Travelers from all over the country are coming to prepare for our wedding in a week and that's why the inn is flat.

Some people are reselling the rights to the inn. It seems you have to pay 30 times the market price to buy it.
That's a lot of work for .......

　Get up and look out the window.
　The city of Avalon below is certainly a lot more crowded than it was right after I arrived here.

It's hard to be popular.

　Eliza came up beside me, grinning, and poked me in the side with her elbow.

......
"Huh?　What do you think?
I just thought I had to fix the situation.
"This situation is ...... missing lodging this?
"Yes.
It's none of my business, but I think it's best to stay out of it.
"...... Why?
"Nothing will ever come along beyond the event of Alec welcoming the chamber. So this is the peak. If we try to get through this and add more lodgings, there will be a chorus of deserted birds afterwards.
...... It's true, isn't it?

　Eliza was right.
　This is true for everyone, not just me.

　Nobles and commoners alike, the moment in life that brings people together the most is the same moment.

　That is, the moment of the wedding.

　So this panic now is only a week's madness.
　Don't mess with it, says Eliza.

　That makes sense, I can do it. .......

"Hmm.
What's up?
No, it's Alec. You think you have to do something about it, though.
...... Yeah, I'm going to be there. I want to make sure everyone has a good time on the day for me and everyone who came for Angel.
I knew it. All right, I'll take care of the accommodation.

　Eliza twisted around and headed for the exit of the office.

"Eliza?
"There was a block in the middle of a development to the southwest, I'm going to build it all up there.
"Are we going to make it?
"Who are you talking to?

　Eliza stops, turns around and smiles over her shoulder.

"This is the emperor of the empire, I will easily clear the difficult task ten times harder than this one.
"...... Thank you, Eliza.
"For Angers

　Eliza walked out of the room, leaving a smile on her face.

　Now, if that's so, then I have to think more and more.
　How to handle the overflowing inn after the wedding.

　As I was thinking about it, something shifted in front of me.

"Lord.

　The one who came was Astaroth.
　She is a true goddess of fertility who calls me lord.

May I give you an update?
Yes, what is it?

　Sitting back in his chair, he received the report of Astaroth.
　As usual, her report was about the cultivation and harvesting of land in Avalon and the Alexander League lands.

I would like to give the best harvest to the village that has worshipped the Lord the most ......

　Astaroth had a complicated look on his face.

"Is there some kind of inconvenience?
I couldn't get rid of the idea that it was somewhat of a foul play.
What do you mean?
The statue of the Lord is set up in that village as well.
"Technically, though, it's a statue of Astaroth.
There is a statue of the Lord. Of course, villagers pray to the statue, but there is a widespread story that it is a place of pilgrimage at the suggestion of someone else.
"A place of pilgrimage?
"Therefore, besides the people of the village, there are others who come from all over to pray to the Lord.
Okay, so you think that's a foul play, right?

　Nodding Astaroth.

　Astaroth, who is a true goddess, acts and speaks as if she worships me, a human being.
　So you can't tolerate injustice when it comes to me.

　To be honest I don't particularly care about that.
　I built the cave and had the statue built because that's what Astaroth wanted, and I'm not going to ask for a price - in this case, what he asks for is faith in me.
　So, you see.

I think it's good. You're going to use your head to get more people to pray to me.


It's ......
I think that would be good. Or rather, I'll leave it to Astaroth. If you think it's good, it's good; if it's not good, it's not good. That should work.
"...... Got it.

　Astaroth bowed to me and left the office in transition.
　The moment I thought to myself, "She's a very serious goddess .......

Ah ......

　A white light went through my head and I had an epiphany.

This would keep the ...... tourists coming.

　The tips Astaroth gave me and I set out to implement them immediately.

　　　　　Stars

　In the center of Avalon, the site of the wedding ceremony.
　There, surrounded by a curtain, I was bringing in a fresh statue.

What is it?
"Eliza

　Eliza, speaking to me from behind, looked up at the statue and nodded her head.

"Is it okay to come here?　Where is the accommodation?
I didn't build it, I gave the orders, I specified the rewards and the punishments.
Okay, that's good enough for me.

　Credit must be given.
　Eliza as a ruler is very aware of that.
　That's why her commands are powerful, actionable.

What's more.
This is a statue of God of Juno.
Juno ...... Goddess of marriage.
. He promised to come down on the day and congratulate me and Angel.
"That's this place ...... hahaha

　Eliza chuckled, she seemed to have figured it out.

Yes, if we put a statue of the god here for Juno's arrival, this will be the holy place for Juno's arrival. Moreover, she is the goddess of marriage that most people in the world want.
When the ceremony is over, people will come here incessantly to seek blessings. Seeking blessings.
That kind of thing.
You do.

　Eliza approached the statue and touched it lightly with her hand.

"It's just a stone statue. One thing like this is the best value for money ever, keeping all the tourists in line. This is the best value for money in history.
Good, I'm glad Eliza said so.

　To be honest, I'm not sure if it's enough for a statue, so I thought about casting a spell, but if Eliza says so, then it should be fine.

　If not, then no, you can add it later.

"Hmm.
What's going on?
"I'm not the first unmarried person to pray to this statue of God, am I?
"Come to think of it,
"Looks beneficial.
I have.

　I answered immediately.

"I see.

　Eliza smiled back at me.

　I've decided not to say anything else until after the ceremony with Angel, but I'm glad to see that Elisa could feel it.

　Pieces from a gourd, I guess.
