Gen-san's booming voice echoes through the room. Around him, many people are drinking, eating, laughing, and talking. In the capital of Agartha, for the first time in the history of the country, an insane scene was unfolding.

The man who is being forced to drink next to the master carpenter, who is drinking and working on a beautifully finished product, is the king of the land. And beside him, laughing and slowly stirring his drink, is the Emperor of the Heidata Empire, Heidata Sure Heat.

"Hi, your pasta is ready!

The one who has been gracefully boiling a large amount of pasta and making the sauce is the Queen of Agartha, Licorette. Her belly is getting quite plump, but she does not let that bother her as she is cooking with great dexterity. Next to her, many women including Peris, Ferris, and Ruara are cooking and serving the food.

The queen is cooking a meal while conversing with ordinary ladies... The Prime Minister of the Heedat Empire, Gremont, is watching this scene with a look of dismay on his face. Nearby, a woman in an apron is patting her stomach.

The emperor, royalty, viziers, beastmen, demons, men, and women of all ranks and races are gathered together for a banquet. This event was later called the "Miracle of Agartha" and will go down in history as an event that shocked the entire world.

...It all started from a very casual feeling. I had no idea that it would turn out like this.

It was late October when the autumn harvest was coming to an end in Agartha. The guest house was finally completed. It is a three-story building about half the size of the Tokyo Dome, but it is a magnificent building made of stone and wood. According to Mr. Gen, the building can still be expanded, and we will discuss this when the time and opportunity arise.

As if they had been waiting for the completion of the building, Considie and Soleil arrived. And upon their arrival, Matocal arrived as well.

They were amazed at the inside of the guest house with their attendants, and were instantly fascinated by the interior and its furnishings. With great joy, they brought in the rooms for their own use and their master's belongings.

With the completion of the guest house, the addition to the imperial residence was also completed. The number of rooms was increased by three and a toilet was added. After much deliberation, we decided to use the vacant first floor as a library. We did so because the number of books of May and Peris has been increasing.

Considie, Soleil, and Matkal saw the residence in the capital, and they liked it very much. Especially, all three of them were very pleased with the warming toilet seat.

They brought various personal belongings into the room they had been given, and purchased items they lacked in the capital or in the capital of Agartha, and brought them into the room as they needed them.

Everything was ready when November came. On the same day, we moved our workroom to the guest house. The building where we had been was now officially the headquarters of the Agartha army, and Lafayence became its head.

While we were having a late lunch, Gen-san, a carpenter, came to visit us.

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

General! How do you like the house we built?

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

"Gen-san, you have built something wonderful! Thank you! I'm sorry it took me so long to thank you."

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

No, no, I mean it! So, I was thinking of getting together with my carpentry friends and having a drink. If you don't mind, could you at least show up? Don't forget to help your friends with their work!"

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

"Well, if that's the way it's going to be, it's no trouble at all. Mr. Gen, just wait here for a minute.

With that I go downstairs to Rico. And when I told him about Gen-san, he was overjoyed and agreed with me.

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

"Thanks for waiting, Gen-san. I just talked with Rico and we'd like to use the garden of the guest house. And let us join you. We'll provide the drinks and food.

"Sorry! Well, I'll be glad to oblige!"

Well, that's how it was agreed in the beginning. The event was to be held in five days, but word of it spread around the city, and more and more people wanted to participate. Three days later, Gen-san appeared again with his wife, his red face turning pale.

He said, "Hey, General, I'm sorry. That story has been going around the city... They're all coming..."

"Everyone? How many people will be there?"

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

I don't know. I'd say, roughly, 1,000?

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

One thousand?

"The masters... Tomekyo, Hachi, Kuma, Jin-kyo... His apprentices... Stonemasons, lumberjacks... the list goes on and on.

"Hmm. Well, I guess we'll just have to make do. You can't say no now, can you?"

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

I'm sorry, General. I'm so sorry...

The wife, who had been looking at Gen-san with regretful regret, steps forward.

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

"It's all right, boss. We'll help you! I can make 1,000 or 2,000 pajamas with a little help from my wives! I'm sorry if it's not too much to ask, but I just need you to prepare the ingredients and alcohol.

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

"Wow, okay. What kind of ingredients do you want?

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

"Anything is fine! As long as it's not poison, I'll make you anything you want!"

The landlady's forcefulness pushed me to prepare the ingredients and sake.

When I told Riko about this, she began to enumerate various problems and countermeasures, such as a place to cook, a place to eat, a trash can, and so on. I decided to leave that to Riko, and I was busy preparing for the banquet that was coming up in two days.

In the meantime, I went to report to His Majesty in the capital, and this time His Majesty showed interest in the banquet.

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

"I would like to go, too.

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

"No! I cannot believe that His Majesty would go to such a place!"

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

Naturally, the Prime Minister objects. I agree with him.

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

"No, we just have to disguise our identities! You don't think the emperor of Heedata will be there!"

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

But we must not let anything happen to His Majesty!

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

"Prime Minister, isn't this a good opportunity to see how the people are doing? All right, all right. Then Prime Minister, you follow me!

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

Why me?

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

"You are worried about me, aren't you? If the Prime Minister comes with me and keeps an eye on me, there will be no problem!"

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

"Heh... Your Majesty..."

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

Thus it was decided that the Master Heat, a certain merchant of Heedata, and his watchman, Gremont, a man of very high rank, would join the party.

On the day of the event, more than 2,000 people gathered. Under the beautiful autumn sky in the garden of the guest house, surrounded by a large lawn, I was somehow put in charge of giving the toast.

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

"Well, uh~ ah~ well... Thank you all for your hard work. I look forward to working with you in the future. Everyone here today is..."

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

"General! So long! Hurry up!

Cursing shouts came from somewhere. I'm swimming my eyes.

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

"Cheers, ～～～～～～!!!!!!"

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

Thus began a banquet that would go down in history. From the dais, I could see the faces of those who had gathered. Where did he hear the rumors? Moving casually next to him and greeting him is Lafayence. The one who has gone to eat the food of Peris is Yury, the Prime Minister of the Duchy of Niza, who is supposed to have returned to his country. And there is the Deer God for some reason. Roni is there too. His Majesty is really enjoying himself...

While I'm thinking about that, Gen-san and the others are cursing at me from below. They want us to have a drink together as soon as possible. And I kept drinking until I lost consciousness that day.

Just before I got into a drunken stupor, I took my new wives up on the stage, tongue deep in my mouth. I took them by the arm and led them away without question. Later I heard that it was almost like taking them away. Then I open my mouth to the assembled crowd.

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

"Ladies and gentlemen, these are my new wives. We look forward to working with you in the future.

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

After a while, the audience burst into applause. I remember that part of the day, but I don't remember where the dream and reality began and ended.
