Chapter 4 - Chapter 3: Palace lvl. 2

A day has passed since Lucy became the first person to join my kingdom. With her help, we managed to build our first house in just a single day. Naturally, the house is hers. Every lady deserves a bit of privacy.

When I check the requirements for upgrading the palace to the next level, I see that all I need now is a crop field.

Condition to Palace lvl 2:

House [1/1] 

Population [2/2]

Agriculture [0/1]

I also received two Grade One tickets, one for recruiting Lucy as my first member and another for building my first house. I still hadn't used them yet, and I wasn't sure whether I should keep them hidden from Lucy.

After thinking it over for a day, I decided to show her. She's committed to helping me build this kingdom, and it wouldn't be right to hide things from her…

Well except for the small detail that she's a character from a fictional Anime/Manga.

I walk over to Lucy's house, which isn't far from mine, to tell her about the tickets.

I gently knock on her door and call out, "Lucy, are you awake already? I want to show you something amazing."

A still half-asleep Lucy opens the door, a confused look on her face. She's still wearing the clothes from the day before, since we don't have any others yet.

"What did you want to show me?" she asks. "Did something happen?"

I walk into her home and sit on her bed "Noting really. I just though I demonstrate your what I got since I arrived in this world"

Lucy looks curious at me and sits next to me "Ok, then show me what you can do. I am interested what this voice, you talked about gaveyou"

I slowly pull out the tickets out of my pocket and rip them apart.

[Sun Breathing]

|Rare Skill|

Demon Slayer - The origin of all breathing forms and the strongest among them all, created by Yoriichi himself. You gain unlimited stamina and slightly enhanced endurance, and every strike is so precise that it cuts down to the cellular level. Your attacks also mimic sunlight, making them devastatingly effective against certain demons and vampires. (You mastered all forms and get basic swordsmanship)

[Device: Hibachi]

|Uncommon Item|

Chivalry of a failed knight - The Device of Momiji Asagi, capable of creating walls of fire and wrapping flames around opponents. It takes the form of a katana and can be summoned or dismissed at will.

Damn, what a coincidence. A katana and an ability that actually lets me use it. It looks like my luck really has no end.

I summon Hibachi, a katana emitting flames that are surprisingly not hot. They're probably just for show.

"See, I got that through ripping these tickets apart that were in my hands. I also got now infinite stamina, higher endurance and much more." I explain to Lucy eagerly.

Lucy watches in awe at my flame endulged Katana. "Wow, just like Erza requip magic. Isn't the katana hot?" She asks slightly worried.

"No need to worry. The flames are not real... I think. At least it doesn't burn, or feels hot. I am not an expert with the origin of this device" I explain, not really sure how that thing worked in the novel.

After explaining everything to Lucy, I start my day by working on my first crop field. I grab a hoe and begin preparing the land for planting. Before that, I send Lucy off to look for seeds and any other edible-looking plants she can find.

A few hours later, Lucy returned, carrying a variety of seeds and fruits. In the meantime, I had prepared a 25 × 25 field. "We're almost done! We just need to plant the seeds, and then we'll have our own food." I explained to her, feeling both happy and proud of what we had accomplished.

Lucy hands me over everything she got and I start to plant every seed she gave me. I take a few steps back and look over our work, with Lucy standing right next to me.

Condition to Palace lvl 2:

House [1/1] 

Population [2/2]

Agriculture [1/1]

All requirements are met!

After the message appeared, confirming that all requirements were met, the ground began to shake. Was it an earthquake, or was something happening to the palace? Probably the latter…

"What's happening?!" Lucy screamed, her voice very loud, as my house started to glow and transform into something entirely new.
