Chapter 166: Wow, holy shh!
I lightly tapped my foot, and this time the Marduk Imperial Palace appeared.The Sultan's palace was briefly thrown into chaos by our sudden appearance, but that wasn't really important.I handed Sultan Saladin two of the 「Margo's Flower」 I had obtained. The Sultan, receiving them, was extremely grateful and bowed his head repeatedly. "Thank you. Thank you. Judas, you are my benefactor.""Hmm..."
I was used to being cursed at, but receiving thanks was still unfamiliar and rather uncomfortable and awkward.I didn't know what expression I should make.
"I declare today a national holiday! Let the music play!"
Just like in the oasis village, a feast was instantly spread here as well.It was really nice to be treated as an honored guest wherever we went.
"The Demiurge of Scorching Heat, Arnanna... It's a name I've never heard before."
The Sultan listened to what we had been through and expressed deep sympathy. The Sultan also seemed unaware of the name Arnanna, but that wasn't really important.
"Is this the egg?""Yes."
I held out Arnanna's egg to the Sultan.The Sultan took it, exclaimed "It's quite heavy," and then passed the egg back to us.He seemed curious about what would hatch from it, but noticing that I found various questions annoying, he didn't ask any more.
As expected of a man at the pinnacle of a nation's power.With that feeling, the banquet ended, and I wandered around the palace late at night. It wasn't just aimless wandering; I had someone to meet.
