"Marriage?　Ars, you're getting married before me.

"Screw you. And what's more, you're an aristocrat's daughter.

"Well, you once said you wanted to be a hero who saves princesses."

"Maybe Lilina and some maids will come to Barca with her, so you might be able to find a good one."

"Idiot. I'm going to get married to the most beautiful woman in the world. You'll see, Ars.

　After the New Year's celebration in Fontana, I returned to Vulcania and told my family about the wedding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　My brother Bite is very angry when he hears about it.

　However, the rest of my family accepted my marriage proposal with open arms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They seem to think that marrying a peasant woman from a good place is a big deal.

　They were happy to see me, skipping over the fact that I was still a child.

"But I had a feeling that you would never get married. What's the wind up, Ars?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm?　Lilina seemed like a nice girl. And I also thought that marriage would be very beneficial.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Advantages?　What's that?"

"Yeah. Gran and I have been talking about building a castle here in Vulcania for a while. But we haven't decided what kind of castle it should be. This is going to help us move forward."

"Why does marriage have anything to do with castle building? We built a castle by the river before, so why not do whatever you want?"

"The castle I'm planning to build in Vulcania is supposed to be luxurious to show my authority," he said. But if we build too luxurious a castle, the Fontana family, the main family, would be concerned.

"So that's what's going on with this story."

"Yes. I'm taking Lilina, who is related to the head of the Fontana family, as my wife. We can't let her stay in a shabby house like her parents'. Barca will use all he has to get Lilina into the best house he can. Then there's no reason to complain if he builds her a little luxurious castle.

"I see. I see... the relationship with the nobles is a bit of a hassle too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, that's all over now. From now on, we can do whatever we want."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, I decided to start building a castle in Vulcania, which I had been neglecting for a while.

　I was so excited that I decided to start building a castle in Vulcania, which I had neglected for a while.

"And now, Mister Ars. Have you thought about what kind of castle you are going to build, that you have?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, I've been thinking about it my own way. And I think that the castle we are going to build here should be a symbol of the land of Barca.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"A symbolic castle, that it is. Good, that it is, but what exactly do you have in mind, that you have in mind?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The theme of the new castle is glass. I want to make a castle that makes use of glass.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Glass, that it is?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, that's right. You know that the demand for glass has increased since the castle town was built. In fact, the buildings in the town were made of window glass, and the merchants from outside were amazed when they saw them. You don't see that kind of building in other places."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It is true that buildings in other places do not have windows, that they do not.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So if we can make good use of the glass, it will be a castle like no other you've ever seen. I think it will have enough impact and authority."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmmm. I know what you mean, that I do. ....... Glass can only be used for windows. I don't think it would have that much of an impact, even if the castle were full of windows, that I don't think.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmmm. We're not just going to use window glass. We're going to use stained glass for the castle.

　I have been thinking about this ever since Gran first told me about building a castle for authority.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was how to give authority to the building itself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The easiest way would be to give it height.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Basically, a tall building is not necessary for most people, and daring to build it is a sign of power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, this did not motivate them to build buildings that were too tall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reason is that there is not enough manpower.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We are a small group of people living in a village, and the land I have cultivated has allowed me to turn it into a city.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But basically it was just me and my brother Kyle who lived in my house, and the rest of the people I knew helped me with household chores.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is because my father is the patriarch of my family, and he is succeeded by his eldest son, Hector.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This means that I left my parents' house and made a new house.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This means that building a big and tall house is too much of a hassle to manage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is easy to clean thanks to the magic of life called "washing," but it is still hard work.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For this reason, I was wondering if there was another way to show authority rather than simply by the scale of the structure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And that is how I arrived at the idea of using light.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have heard this story in my past life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Gods and Buddhas usually have a halo over their appearance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is said that when a light shines from behind a person, it is as if the person is also considered sacred.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　By taking advantage of this, the light shining from behind can also enhance the image of the person.

　A visitor to Vulcania meets me in the audience chamber of the new castle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　What if behind me there are a lot of big stained glass windows with light shining through them?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Probably, people who have never seen such a thing must have an impression of that beautiful light on me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be a good way to add authority.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, I decided to work with Gran to create a building with stained glass windows.
