The morning sun rose from behind the mountains in the southern part of the Holy Castle Camelot, the castle's silver walls seemed to shine as it reflected sunlight.

Holy Castle now looked like it was in a bowl, because it was distributed behind there was a mountain which was quite high, and distributed before there were mounds made by the Gnomes at night.

As expected of land fairies, they do their jobs quickly. The Gnomes led by Terra can complete their work in just a few hours, they start at night, and finish at dawn.

After completing the work given by Esmeralda, Terra and the other Gnomes returned to their residence on the Dark Floor.

And at the North Gate, at this time, one of the Knights of Round Table was seen walking in the park. She is Mordred. Her face looked unfriendly as usual.

* Fwuosh *

"Hmm ...?"

Mordred heard the gate open, but it was certainly not an intruder, because if an intruder entered and was detected by the Tracking Magic surrounding the castle, the bell at the top of the castle would sounds and alert the entire Camelot occupant.

Circular Camelot Environment with an area of ​​15 hectares. It was a large area for a single castle. One third of the area is the courtyard section, which contains gardens, flowers and grass.

Spawn NPC from Camelot was in charge of managing and cleaning the vast park. In addition, facilities such as the Battle Arena and Training Arena also exist in the environment outside the castle.

Each Arena is usually guarded by a Guardian Area, there are Knights of Round Tables who serve as Guardian Areas such as Sir Lionel who guards the Training Arena in the Park, but most Guardian Areas on Camelot are custom level 50-70 NPCs made by FireisHot. There is also a Guardian Area that is obtained from some sort of Event.

Because even though all Knights of Round Table members are custom NPCs (Except Nash), not all custom NPCs are included in the Knights of Round Table. One of them was a maid-clad woman who was currently approaching towards Mordred, no, the gate was more precise.

"Oh, good morning Suzu, it's very rare for you to get out of the Dark Floor, what's up?"

"Good morning Sir Mordred, Nash-sama has returned, so I want to welcome him."

The woman called Suzu was the only Custom NPC made directly by Nash. Suzu looked like a professional maid, her face was gorgeous and her eyesight is sharp, she was wearing rimless glasses. Her black hair is ponytail and her eyes are purple.

In contrast to other NPCs who have European appearances, Suzu's facial characteristics look more Asian. Well, overall she is someone who is very beautiful, as Yamato Nadeshiko is very suitable for her.

Hearing Suzu's words, Mordred thought a little.

' It turns out Nash-sama and Agravain made the noise just now, I guess who. '

Not long ago, the form of a man appeared on a paving road connecting the North Gate with the Camelot Main Door.

Suzu who saw the figure of the man, his face brightened and he then greeted him from afar while approaching him excitedly.

"Nash-sama."

The man was Nash who had just returned from his investigation in Abellion Hills. Nash, seeing Suzu's presence, raised his eyebrows.

' Hmmm? Who is she...? '

Nash thought for a moment, before he remembered the identity of the beautiful maid who had called him.

'Ah, that's right ... I forgot that I made an NPC at that time, if I'm not mistaken, her name is ...'

Suzu then stopped in front of Nash and handed him a glass of water that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

"Welcome back, Nash-sama. Please drink the water."

"Um, Thank you for your hard work, Suzu."

"No Nash-sama, it's my duty to serve you 24 hours a day."

Suzu's face brightened only with thanks from her master. Seeing his master carrying various items in a leather bag, Suzu said while smiling.

"Let me carry your bag, Nash-sama."

"Ah, no need, I can carry it myself."

"Let me carry it."

Suzu's smile was even wider when she said that for the second time. Nash sweat a little, before he finally resigned and handed over his bag.

" Thank you. "

After that, Nash took a glass of water from Suzu and drank it.

The feeling when the water removed his thirst made Nash refreshed. At first Nash was surprised when he could feel the taste of food in this world, but he quickly regained consciousness and warned himself that this world was no longer a virtual world. So of course he can taste food ..

By the way, Nash ate his first meal in the world when he was in the Zoastia Settlement before. As he drank the water, Nash looked at Suzu and thought.

'Wait a minute, as I recall, I never wrote anything in the character settings, why could she act like another Custom NPC? Did Esmeralda-san write it? No-no, as I recall, I never moved Suzu from my room on the Dark Floor ... then how could that be ...? Hmmm ... I have to investigate later. For now, I have to act like a leader. '

After drinking until there was nothing left, Nash then handed it back to Suzu, and he started walking again, followed by Suzu behind him.

"Good morning, Sir Mordred."

"Morning, Your Honor."

"Who did the mound? Are they Gnomes?"

"That's right, Your Highness, the Gnomes made a mound in front of the North Gate on Esmeralda-sama's orders to hide the existence of Camelot Castle."

Nash nodded at that.

"Then thank you for your hard work watching them all night."

"Th-that's ... it's nothing Nash-sama, your praise is too much."

Nash just smiled from behind his hood and thought that there didn't seem to be anything to worry about the conditions inside the castle, the threat from inside was almost non-existent because the possibility of betrayal was carried out by the NPCs was very small.

"Then, excuse me, Nash-sama."

Nash just nodded, and Mordred walked back to her post. Nash deliberately did not use [Ring of Camelot] to teleport directly into the castle because from the beginning he wanted to 'interact a little' with other NPCs.

After that, Nash and Suzu entered the Castle and while they were on their way to Nash's Room, they met Arthur who was seen carrying breakfast on a tray, he seemed to want to deliver it to Esmeralda.

Arthur has also removed his Golden Armor and returned to his casual look. Wearing a blue shirt with gold embroidery, and long white pants.

"Good morning, Arthur."

"Ah, Nash-sama, you have returned ... but where is Sir Agravain?"

"Well, he has a little business ... By the way, are you on your way to th noble room right now?"

"That's right, what's up?"

"No, Tell her, if she wants to chat or discuss with me, just see me tonight, because I have to do a few things right now."

"Ah, that's right! Esmeralda previously said that she wanted to hold a meeting with the Floor Guardians when you and Sir Agravain returned."

"Then tell her to delay until nightfall."

"I understand, then excuse me."

After Arthur left, Nash walked back to his room. Along the way, he could see the beautiful flower gardens on Camelot, from the glass windows scattered in the halls.

It was very beautiful for Nash who had had enough of seeing the sights of a big city in his old world.

When Nash and Suzu stepped their feet on the Dark Floor, Nash then immediately used the Ring of Camelot to teleport to his room. Because he did not want to receive remarks from the Occupants of the Dark floor.

The Dark Floor is very large and large, although it is called the Dark Floor, but the atmosphere there is not as dark as its name.

In fact, it is a pretty lively and crowded floor. The Dark Floor is essentially a vast expanse of grassland which has lakes and trees inside.

There live various kinds of NPCs from various races, they lived side by side under the leadership of Nash. The Dark Floor even though it is underground, but on the ceiling there is a very large Blue Crystal, which illuminates the lives of the NPCs below it

The name of the Dark Floor was proposed by Nash himself, the reason being that Camelot was a Kingdom of humans, so the monsters there would be considered the darkness or dark side of Camelot. Because of that, almost all of the Monster type NPCs in Camelot lived and stood guard on the Dark Floor.

In addition, the Dark Floor also served as the last line of defense of the Camelot Holy Castle.

And right in the middle of the Dark Floor, there is a very large tree, which rises up to the ceiling. The tree at first glance looks like Yggdrasil, but a much smaller version. The big tree was given the name [ Root of Camelot ]

[Root of Camelot] actually functions as a treasure storage room. Inside the trunk of a large tree is stored a variety of assets owned by the Pillars. In fact, before the three pillars besides Nash and Esmeralda decided to stop playing. They gave all their equipment to Nash and Esmeralda.

Not wanting to damage their friends' belongings, Nash and Esmeralda did not use them and instead kept them in the treasure room.

At the top of a large tree trunk is also Nash's room.

'Ah ~, I want to go to sleep soon. '

Nash entered his room followed by Suzu behind him. Nash's room looks like a tree house compared to a room. The floor is grass and there is a tree on which there are beds and various other facilities, such as books, etc.

There is a wooden ladder that can be climbed to get to the top, even though it is only for aesthetics, because Nash can easily jump onto his bed from below.

And around Nash's room, there was glass that could make him see the view of the Dark Floor from above.

Nash then took off his robe and put it into the Dimensional Inventory, he then stretched his body and sat on the wooden table.

"Suzu, my bag."

Suzu then handed the leather bag in her hand to Nash, and then just stood behind Nash as if she wanted to wait for Nash to finish his work.

Nash, who saw that, said with a confused face.

"Eh, Suzu ... why are you just standing there?"

"Is my presence unneeded here, Nash-sama?"

"No, that's not what I meant. Wouldn't your feet hurt if you just stood there all the time? '

Suzu who heard her master's words then thought for a moment, before she said.

"What if I make you a breakfast, Nash-sama?"

Hearing Suzu's words, Nash gulped. It so happened that he was really hungry right now, even though the food of the Phantom Race was a shadow itself, but with his human form, Nash could feel thirsty and hungry. He then said with a smile to Suzu

"That's a very good idea, I happen to have not eaten since yesterday ..."

"Then what do you want as your breakfast?"

"Can you make me a simple Japanese breakfast set?"

"Is that so, then I'll immediately make it for you, Nash-sama, excuse me."

After that, Suzu left Nash's room, while Nash thought of Suzu's previous actions.

'I still don't understand the way Job Class works for NPCs, as I recall, Suzu's Character Setting Page is still blank, so it should be ... Tck, this is very confusing. '

After that, Nash opened a leather bag containing various books and a map of the world that Vijar had given him earlier.

Nash then spread the map on the table, and began to do his work.

"Then it's time to make a few modifications to this map."

***

The light emitted by the Crystal began to fade, indicating that the day was night. Actually, the Crystal that illuminates the Dark Floor is directly connected to the silver wall of the castle. Thus, the light emitted by the Crystal comes from the sunlight that shines on the Castle.

"Ah, it doesn't feel like it's night ..."

Nash just finished his work, after that Suzu entered Nash's room.

"Nash-sama, Sir Lancelot picked you up, he is currently at the lakeside, he said Esmeralda-sama called you to hold a meeting with the Floor Guardians."

"Picking me up? I don't think so, he might want to meet 'her' "

" I think so. "

Nash then got up from the chair and took the bag on the table.

"Then, I'll go first, Suzu, you stay in my room, I'll be back when it's finished."

"Okay, Nash-sama. Should I prepare some warm water?"

"Um, please."

After that Nash teleported to the edge of the lake, and looked for where Lancelot was. After that, he saw Lancelot sleeping in the lap of a woman by the lake.

Nash then approached them, and felt Nash's presence, Lancelot frantically woke up from his sleep and knelt in front of Nash as well as the woman beside him.

The woman was very beautiful, her blue hair that was like lake water, her emerald eyes, and her figure, she was like a very beautiful goddess. Her appearance is like someone who has matured and is in his 20s.

The woman in front of Nash is currently one of the Area Guardians on Camelot, who guard the lake area on the Dark Floor, the fairy who guards the lake, Lady of the Lake, Viviane.

"There's no need to kneel like that if you're not in the Throne Room, I don't really like formality like that, just relax and enjoy your time."

"N-no Nash-sama, how dare I."

"Sir Lancelot, even if I am one of the creators, my position in this palace is still on par with you, I am also one of the Knights of Round Table, so there is no need to behave like that to me. Besides that ..."

Nash then glanced at Viviane, and again said.

"... Don't you want to enjoy time with your mother?"

As Nash said, Viviane was Lancelot's mother, Kirameki Man created them and set their background as mothers and son, as written in the Legend of King Arthur.

"However, since you have arrived, we must immediately go to the meeting room."

"Hmmm ... then forgive me Viviane, Lancelot must go with me."

Viviane, who was apologized by her master, felt very bad.

"M-my lord, you don't need to apologize. Besides, I and Lancelot have been chatting for quite a long time."

Viviane is a gentle and loving woman, she has a motherly side that is extraordinary. Kirameki Man, well he is a very stiff and awkward person. Nash recalled seeing it himself when Kirameki wrote Viviane's character settings.

"Then, if you'll excuse me, my lord."

Nash nodded, and before she left, Viviane kissed Lancelot's forehead and stroked his hair. Viviane's actions immediately made Lancelot's face flushed, moreover she did it in front of Nash.

"Don't bother Nash-sama, okay?"

"Um."

However, the feeling of pleasure in Lancelot is not a lie. Viviane then walked towards the lake, and her whole body then disappeared and became one with the lake.

Nash who saw that, could not help but smile on his face, when he saw it, he remembered the figure of his mother who was currently in a distant world, Nash did not know what to do at this time, especially because he did not have access to return home to his world .

No, Nash does not want to live in that world, if there is an opportunity, he wants to bring his mother to this world, but that he will think about in the future. At present, his aim is to establish the Kingdom of Camelot and spread it to the world, he has begun the first step in Abellion Hills, and it is a crucial step that will determine the initial territory of Camelot.

" Let's go. "

Hearing Nash, Lancelot then stood next to Nash, and the two of them then immediately teleported to the conference room on the Divinity Floor.
