　The maintenance of the amphitheater began under Eve's leadership, and the fact that it took only three days was due in no small part to the skill of the dwarven chieftain, who was in charge of the engineers.

"Is this a service to the spectators?"

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

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

"That's the intention."

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

Yeah, because this kind of thing is all about intensity. The closer the audience and the stadium, the better.

　It would be perfect if we could use a magic mirror to show close-up images, but as you can imagine, we don't have that kind of budget.

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

　We should consider it when tax revenues increase more.

"That would be good."
