The Artificial God

Arriving in the Kingdom

Then finally our Shan group has arrived in front of the Gygash kingdom. After seeing it with our eyes, it turned out that this kingdom was much larger than what we thought, and the words of the people. It turned out that this kingdom was located in a barren desert. The walls surrounding the kingdom were very high, and sturdy, and it seemed like these walls were given additional magic protection to strengthen the defenses.

"Who are you!? what business are you guys doing here?" said one of the guards guarding the entrance gate of the kingdom. At the entrance of the royal gate there are many guards who guard this kingdom. So did many guards lurking from the top of the walls, and also some were on top of very high towers. The defense in this kingdom is so tight that around this wall there are always guards.

"Who are y'all? what need have you come to the glorious kingdom of Zotheas?" said one of the guards who approached us, with his voice, and his firm posture.

"We-we.." then suddenly there were some guards with faces that looked surprised after noticing us. Then the guards who realized our whereabouts immediately approached us in a hurry.

"Me-they!? they are the heroes of the world! they are Shan's group! the ones who overcame the apocalypse!" said those people who seemed to be our big fans. Their faces look happy because they can meet us who are their idols.

We get compliments from the gatekeepers. It makes us blush embarrassed because we continue to be praised too much. Thankfully, their reaction was like this, and I thought they were going to catch us because we were heroes. They are just fanatics.

Then after that we were allowed to enter while being escorted to surround the kingdom. It turned out that within this kingdom was much more thrilling! the atmosphere is so cool, and good. Large buildings, and crowded markets. It turned out that the people in this kingdom lived peacefully like this.

It's just that the leaders are wrong, they still like the old-fashioned things, which are warfare. We have to stop this war from beginning with this kingdom. That way the world will create true peace that will never end.

We entered, and were greeted with great fanfare by the people of the kingdom. They all threw fragrant flowers at us, and cheered in the name of our heroism. Our hearts are pounding for the very welcome of many people in this kingdom.

To the extent that we were transported around the city in this kingdom by horse-drawn carriage. A garden, a slightly sandy cobblestone path, beautiful flowers, a beautiful garden, a magnificent fountain, a cool bridge, a clean flowing river. Everything was absolutely perfect, it was the perfect place we had ever been to, really the scenery, and the atmosphere was amazing.

"This kingdom really feels alive.. hmm. The air is very good to breathe as if I was floating" I muttered that I was enjoying the view of the city behind the window of this horse carriage.

"You are right. This place is like a dream place that living beings want, really peaceful, and peaceful" continued Elysna whose face looks happy.

"Of course, this is the kingdom built by the noble Zotheas. His Majesty built this great kingdom alone, and allowed us mixed beings to live here. He's really a very nice guy, and very considerate of vile creatures like us" said the guard, who was focused on riding a horse in the driver's section.

"Tumben once he.." said we in a simultaneous mind that does not expect that a fool like Boa Boa can say something wise from his mouth.

"Thank you." said the guard with a sincere smile. We continued walking around the city until we stopped in the afternoon, and got off the horse-drawn carriage. Phew.. travel is quite tiring, and it is fun to watch this beautiful city.

"Well then I go." said the guard, who returned to watch, and left us with his chariot. Then, we could only be silent after getting off the horse carriage dumbfounded. I don't know why we seem to have forgotten something so important.

"Hey... Where are we going to live?" tygruth said, keeping us all quiet.

"It seems we have to wonder to the people here about the place of lodging" said I who then finally split up to find a place to stay temporarily. Then finally one of us managed to find the perfect place to stay.

Then we went to the innkeeper, "one room is five silver coins a month" said the innkeeper, to our surprise. Because we have no money at all, because we have never used a financial system called money during our trip.

Because we usually always exchange them for the mature fish we get in the river during the trip. Including when we paid for ramen in the old grandfather's tavern, we used twenty ripe fish to pay for his ramen, because the grandfather always refused, and only wanted money. Finally we fled, and left the twenty ripe fish in the tavern.

"We don't have money" I said with a small smile.

Then after that, we were finally given the convenience to stay at the inn. That is to be a duty of cleanliness at the inn, on the ground floor of the inn there is a bar that usually crowded visitors there to get drunk at night.

Though we are the heroes, how could the father of the inn owner treat us like this. But at least like this we get two rooms, and can stay here as long as we keep working at this inn.

The duties given by the owner of the inn were different to us. Tygruth was made bartender, and Boa Boa became a barmaid. Then I became the janitor who cleaned the room, and the second-floor room which was the inn. Then for Elysna, she became the janitor who cleaned the first floor, which was at the bar.

What an upsetting fate, but this is for our good, so we have to do it. Investigate something about this kingdom, and if necessary we will attack this kingdom secretly. Get ready your noble Zotheas shit!.
