Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Amphitheater.

This oval arena is an amusement facility for citizens living in the capital.

For the time being, fees will be collected.

The price paid by ordinary people is about the same as the cost of three meals.

By the way, the nobleman has to pay ten times that amount.

Instead, nobles have the most visible and spacious seats available.

By the way, the price is free because it is currently in the middle of the festival.

"How many people can enter this?"

"Isn't it 10,000 people? It looks like it's full now. Well, it's natural because the price is free."

By the way, Ismare was trying to create an amphitheater that could accommodate 50,000 people.

No matter how much you're overkill.

Such a huge facility is unnecessary.

"The population of this city is 90,000 right now, isn't it 10,000 people ... not too big?"

Julia tilted her head.

Well, if only residents of this city use it.

"It's just the population inside the walls, 90,000 people. The more they extend to the metropolitan area, the more they are.

Of course, products from the east brought from Lezad are gathered in this city, such as wheat and wine harvested in the Kingdom of Romaria.

Therefore, people come from the Romanian kingdom, as well as from the Romanian Federation and Adernia.

So there is always some demand.

Because this world lacks entertainment, people are always hungry for entertainment.

The wolf should come like sheep flesh.

"For the time being, it's profitable in the calculation.

At least one national amphitheater can operate even in the red.

There was no problem.

"... But what's going on here is a gladiator game. It's not very educational, so why not stop watching?"

I look down at Marx in my arm.

Well, I don't want to stop if they say they want to see.

A child who saw a sword fight would not be a bad person. There are many excellent people in this world who grew up watching gladiators.

Everyone can distinguish between show and reality. Well, some people can't just happen.

However, I don't recommend it because it's not my favorite entertainment.

"There's something more interesting than a sword fight.

I got into the carriage.

"large……"

"It's bigger than an amphitheater, but where is it?"

To the east of the amphitheater was a facility that was one size larger than the amphitheater.

The shape is a crushed ellipse.

"Tank competition."

I answered the two questions.

A tank is not a tank used on the so-called Panzer Four tank road.

A horse is a so-called chariot who pulls a two or three wheeled car.

"Tank race ... is that a tank race?"

"That's it. It's a major sport if you're in Greece or Persis. It's time to start. Let's go."

I go to the competition.

Obviously, it's quite a big house because the guards have solidified our surroundings.

It's quite noticeable, but ... well, I don't mind. I'm already used to being noticed.

"This is His Majesty! I'm sorry to hear you. Come here. We have special seats."

Immediately after entering the racetrack, the manager came over with a hand massage.

"Before that, I want to buy a ticket."

"A ticket? Wait for a while"

A ticket is not an admission ticket.

This is because the stadium has free admission.

A ticket means ...

"There are red, blue, green, and white. Which one do you want?"

"I'll make it white"

I buy a white team ticket.

If the white team that I purchased wins first, I can redeem this ticket for several to several hundred times the price of the original purchase.

On the other hand, if it is fourth place, it becomes paper waste.

In short, it's a gamble.

"Purchase you guys"

Tetra purchased the same blue color as her hair, and Julia purchased the opposite color, Tetra.

Fiona said "I like the same color as my dad !!" and bought Ankus.

......

It doesn't matter, but betting is worse for education than gladiators ...

Well, good?

I'll tell you the limit later.

Now……

I listen to the manager.

"Is it going to be profitable?"

"Yes, for now. However, since this is the first time, the magnification is the same for all teams, horses and players. We will adjust well."

Really. By all means, I want the rich to wind up the money.

"I saw it for the first time, but it is quite powerful"

"Great heat. The tension goes up."

"not bad"

Yulia and Tetra lean out and look at the tank.

While raising dust, a four-wheeled chariot goes around the racetrack.

Each of the four tanks flutters a four-colored flag.

Red, blue, green, and white.

Right now, red and blue are fighting for the top.

That is why they are both enthusiastic.

Oh, red has overtaken blue.

"Hooray!!"

"..."

Julia smiles happily, and Tetra looks sad but sad.

But soon blue overtakes red.

The emotions of the two are exchanged.

Interesting. Than tanks.

"Good luck, good luck !!"

"Go, go!!"

Fiona and Ankus stand up and cheer on the tank while waving.

What kind of feeling do you have?

Being supported by the royal family.

Are you happy, nervous, or desperate for the game in front of you?

But I'm a little worried about the future of Fiona and Anks.

The figure of holding a ticket and cheering it on is a horse racing enthusiast with a betting ticket.

First, let's ban the purchase of tickets by law until the age of 15. Yeah, that's good.

"But white is slow"

I muttered in a small voice.

The white team was competing for the top, red and blue were, of course, far behind green.

That would not be possible to win.

Oh?

"Oh, great! Good luck, good luck!"

Ankus raises a loud voice.

The green team has begun to speed up Gungun.

"Ah!!"

"No, no!"

Julia and Tetra make a sad voice.

Red and blue are dashed, and green jumps to the top.

And ...

goal! ! !

Thus, Ankhs has obtained enough gold coins to allow a commoner to play and live for three years.

By the way, blue and red are the same. Later on, White scored a goal.

"Already! What are you going to lose!"

"Okay, don't be so angry. Victory is the luck of time."

I calm her while combing Fiona's hair with her hand.

I've been angry all the time since a while ago.

"Um, dad. Why don't you use a tank in the Romanian army?"

Anks leaned and asked.

"It looks so strong"

Apparently, after seeing the tank, he was wondering all the time.

Well, as far as I can answer ...

"A tank needs a car, but the more you pull a car, the more tired the horse. So mobility is less than a cavalry."

"Then, if you use more than one ... ah, yes. Does that require a horse?"

If you are using a four-headed tank, it is much more efficient and more mobile to have four horses.

And tanks can't climb the mountain, but horses can climb the road.

Cavalry is completely upward compatible with tanks.

In the first place, it is difficult to make use of tanks on the mountainous Adernia Peninsula.

And on the Adernia Peninsula, cavalry arrived earlier than tanks ... a flat-faced (Harifa) tribe.

There are better cavalry than tanks, but there is no point in using tanks.

However, the Persian Empire, which has many plains and deserts, seems to have been active until recently.

"Hey, Almus. What's that big facility?"

Yulia points to a building with a large chimney visible through the carriage window.

Smoke is rising from the chimney.

"That's a public bath."

In other words, a bath.

The fee is the same as one serving of bread. Is it about 100 yen or 200 yen in Japan?

Baths are expensive to maintain because they use large amounts of firewood.

Of course, you can't pay for a fee like that ...

We ignore profitability for public baths.

I decided that the sanitary environment was more important than that.

And the palace also has a big bath.

We're sorry to use our big bath in luxury.

That's it.

"Almus wash his back"

"Oh, please."

After returning to the palace, let the children take a bath and leave the care to the servants ...

We three were taking a bath together.

The bath I was most particular about in the palace.

Separately, I didn't really like baths in the previous life ...

There's no entertainment ...

"... wash with your chest?"

"I'm good today. I want to show something."

I decline Tetra's offer.

Doing so takes a lot of time.

I mean……

"Julia, get away. I can't wash my body."

"Leave after Tetra leaves"

I wanted to avoid a bit of rubbing with three people.

I wash off my body, pull them apart, and I beckon them.

"Come here. There's something interesting."

I open a different door than the entrance in the bathroom.

"Wow, it's cold ..."

"Outside?"

That is an open-air bath.

Now is January. The cold things are cold, though the Adernia Peninsula is warm and snowless.

I rush into the bath.

Huh ... warm.

They entered the open-air bath as if they jumped in.

"It's strange to take a bath outside"

"... It's good that it doesn't get hot"

Apparently they liked it.

By the way, the surrounding area is covered with wood, so there is no worry that people can see it.

The scenery is not good ...

It is a form that considers them.

"Well, you can see the starry sky."

"Well, it's beautiful."

"……full moon"

As big as ever ...

I don't think

This huge moon has turned into a familiar thing for me.

A starry sky different from the original world.

"This is my home these days ..."

I think the original world is nostalgic.

But I never felt like going home.
