Chapter 9 : The gate's square of the commoner district

"Sun, are you okay?"(Yusuke)
"....yes"(Sun)

The unpleasant smell that came from the burnt human was being blown out of the city by the wind art users, Yusuke who was currently being healed by the water art user using the healing system was anxious about Sun. As her clothes were all torn up something was needed to be done immediately, rhus a place to change clothes is needed.
In the original game specification the customization ability, while customizing equipped items, it will cause it to be unequipped.

Currently Sun is wearing a flame corps mantle over her torn clothes. It was Violet who put on the flame corps mantle onto Sun. Yusuke look back at Violet and thought 'surprising' she was a good person.
(TL notes: It's weird as the author place っぽいat the back, cause the word come out like person-ish)

------

"Ahahahaha Krielov! Why are you still standing over there"(Violet)

Violet instructed the soldiers to heal Yusuke and release the shackles currently on Sun, next she went to peek into the large pit in the gate square and started laughing. The only flame corps person who got involved in the pit was Krielov, as he was the first one who acted to try an arrest Yusuke when he unfasten the shackles. And that was the result.

The depth of the hole that spread across the middle of the commoner district cobblestone road, reach the base of the foundation section, which was about 2 and 1/2 meters deep. Although it is not very deep, it is a little difficult to crawl up when fully equipped with armor.

In the hole, the sides were all cobblestone walls, rather than 'producing' or 'creating', it was more of a 'deformation' to the cobblestone through Yusuke's customization ability.

The devoted and loyal Krielov caught a glimpse of Violet who was having fun, begins his nagging again  'Princess you should not be laughing with your mouth so wide open', and as he look back the bottom of the hole begins to fill up like the previous phenomenon.

Rather than falling into a hole, he thought that the wall have suddenly sprang up in front of him. He waited for the faint dancing light to appear, but he realized immediately there was non to be seen. He couldn't understand what kind of divine arts it was. And then, a few people came falling down normally.

"The mix of all the divine arts, is it...."(Krielov)

It was not before long when Krielov and his soldiers got out of the hole. Reminisce of the faint dancing light could be seen in spite of that, they were suddenly standing outside of the hole. The bottom of the hole where they stood felt like it moved up to the ground of the square.

------

Yusuke begin to restore the gate square back to it's original state without the walls and pits, while protecting Sun who was standing behind him, the commotion this time was due to Violet's inquiry. The attendant who was nearby when directly to the royal princess to seek an explanation as the soldiers were all murmuring at the act.

The flame corps soldiers came falling in to report and were about to prostrate in front of Violet to ask for forgiveness, while Violet showed a gesture and said,"It's all good, no need to".

"He really is a completely rude man, even towards a royalty he dares to make crocodile tears."(Violet)
"Respect is something that is to be embrace naturally."(Yusuke)

Violet laugh at Yusuke's words of wisdom, after which he begin to explain the situation of the accusation from that arrested burnt man from earlier.

When Yusuke heard the news that the village of Rufk had a spy connected to Blue garden, it immediately reminded him of Reifold. Why did he appeared in the forest at that time, should I (yusuke) question the villagers myself.

"Well, in the end it was all an act by that fella. To actually butter up to me and take me as a transparent being."(Violet)

In the first place she just wanted to sent the honorable ninjas and investigate about Zeshald within, but due to that fella instigating a prosecution they had to official sent the soldiers thus this was the sequence of events that happened, as Violet explained, astonished by it Yusuke begin to murmur.

"What, as I thought you were the ringleader. Nevertherless an act or accusation ...... Don't Joke around with me"(Yusuke)
"Moh  let me say, I didn't intend for you guys to be treated roughly"(Violet)

"I wonder. Nevermind, I guess you are going to sent us back to the village right."(Yusuke)

From the city to the village of rufk it will take around 1/2 day of traveling with an ordinary carriage. It was soon to be nightfall as he look up into the sky, Yusuke grumbled at not being to go home today, and there is also the problem with Violet which is yet to be settle.

"It seems that the suspicion of betrayer was cleared up because of that man act ......, but Yusuke when you were in rage you have injured some of the soldiers."(Krielov)

"Heh?" (Yusuke)

Yusuke did not remember only fighting the act guy, thus he was flabbergasted by what he(krielov) said. Violet who was watching had a broadly grinning smile, and he explained that when Yusuke created those pitfalls there were several people who gotten injured in the process.

Unlike Krielov, "Didn't notice that it was a hole" was standing in the middle of the location where the hole had been created, thus he wasn't injured, but there were people who were at the corner of it when it happened, thus slipping off the side and fell into it, causing some injuries such as bruises.

"Nope, that is not my fault"(Yusuke)
"I do not know of your feeling, but in any case there was no need for you to involve in the fight over there."(Violet)

"You could have appealed to the palace about that guy, entrust the matter to the soldiers, and all this commotion could be avoided"(Violet), as Yusuke hear that he was lost for words.

Certainly that was true, becoming lost in anger and didn't consider the surrounding. The fact that Yusuke did not trust Violet and the soldier was true, there was also the reason he decided to fight by himself.

"That said, I have an uneasy conscience to punish you .....so what should I do."(Violet)
"......"(Yusuke)

Violet peek and glance over to look at the face of Yusuke's reaction as he leer over his shoulder with a sidelong glance. Standing beside Yusuke, Sun was feeling nervous as she look up at Yusuke and than directed her line of sight to Violet. Violet exhale as she thought 'I shouldn't threaten him too much it is not adult like', thus she issued a condition of an unquestioned favor.

"That's right, Do something that could entertain me."(Violet)

Violet was to write off everything, at the same time to guarantee an identity of this city. Because according to Zeshald all of the gods divine arts mixed and dwells within Yusuke, to be recognized as the one who is qualified not to mentioned by a flame arts user.
As one of those that existed who have more than 2 divine arts, the higher deity have priority in his/her social status.

From the beginning Violet had always wanted to ask what was Yusuke's Sin, but she became attracted to the unusual divine arts that Yusuke have which could create a hole in the stone pavement and make a wall out of nothing. <To be able to make endless array of large walls, by creating a maze right in the middle of the city and causing inconvenience to others seem such a interesting idea --> ~Violet silently thinking

"Ehh, If you are talking like that..... I, don't have experience in such area, ..... also to do it without love is."(Yusuke)

Suddenly, Yusuke begin to squirm restlessly, "What's that" Violet was out of it.

"Oh, You idiot! Not in that sense!"(Violet)
"Well, it's just a joke"(Yusuke)

With slightly blushed cheeks Violet protest," I am not that kind of 'Loose' women", while Yusuke acted as if nothing happened.

"This, THIS GUY.... I will burn you to cinders right now"(Violet)

While Violet clenched her shaking fist, Yusuke was looking over the gate square. The troublemaker was already taken away, and some of the soldiers are already out patrolling the city. The number of onlookers have reduced too, as it soon get deserted the area seems stretch out and spacious.

"Soldiers and onlookers could you step back a little more"(Yusuke)
"Nh? What are you thinking of doing"(Violet)

Yusuke begin to dance his fingers in the empty space, the presences of a divine art was in play, Violet was getting excited as she wonders what she was going to see, while the flame corps was guiding the soldiers and onlooker to step back.

Krielov had been silently watching the course of events up to this point, during the early morning when Violet was tragically hurt and in bad temper seems like a lie as he watch the Violet becoming lively again, as her spirits seems to refreshed, he closed his eyes to thank Yusuke.

Mixed with various colors, he could be qualified as a flame arts user, although there is fault also on our part being magnanimous is also good as he(Krielov) judge. Krielov decided to get along with "Violet's fun". After awhile, he began to regret his decision of not putting a stop to it.

------
"Copy paste Copy paste.... stairs with handrails should be better....alright something like this"(Yusuke)

By concentrating on his consciousness on the customizing process a rough shape was form, the fine details were add on by trimming with his fingers. This was the answer derived by Yusuke from thinking what would Violet be delighted from.

"Yusuke seem to be doing the same thing like when he cleaned up the square a little while ago, what is the thing that he is doing?"(Violet)
"Well....., I also do not know what Yusuke's Divine arts do....."(Sun)

Whenever he uses his divine arts, his fingers will always move around like this, as Sun explained. Although she had kept silent about things she had seen, like changing the taste of food, changing the design of the table and chairs, transforming old clothes and shoes to brand new which all are phenomenons.

"Well, final check ..... doesn't seem to have a problem, I wonder is this okay?"(Yusuke)

Wondering if there was any problems withe the customization date that was put together, Yusuke used it's preview function to perform the various checks, like "Falling" on its own weight aka "Collapsing", or the danger of "Sinking", thus confirming that there was no problem he walked towards the middle of the square while calling the 2 girls to join him.

"Come here, Sun"(Yusuke)
"Coming"(Sun)

Being gently called over, Sun trotted towards Yusuke's side.

"Hey, You too come over here for a little while"(Yusuke)
"Oi! What's that difference in treatment!"(Violet)

Being rudely called over Violet stomped with anger towards Yusuke, but as she stood in front of him she became full of anticipation. What was about to begin, as the soldiers and onlookers that were still around whom were staring from afar, standing in the middle of the deserted gate square was just those 3 people.

Making sure that the 2 girls were next to him, Yusuke pressed the execution button.

"Loading"[customization (program?/Menu?)]

The landscape suddenly changed before their eyes. Towering over the high walls of the middle class districts, even passing through the noble district's wall and finally exceeding the height of the palace. The cold wind that only blows in high places could be felt.

"Whaoooo! What's is this ~~!"(Violet)
 "I tried to make an observation tower"(Yusuke)

The height of the tower is about 80m. It seems that Yusuke "love high places", Violet was filled with admiration as she looked over the edge of the observation tower's open veranda to see the view which is higher than the palace.

From outside it looks like an average stone tower, but the internal materials have been customized to the strength of steel. In order for an expansion of the city, there was a material yards nearby where the cut out stones were stored, as there were not enough building materials the system took it from there to compensate.

A tower which seems to reach towards the heavens suddenly appeared, all the people remaining in the square simultaneously hang their mouth opened as they stared with eyes wide opened.

------

"HAR  Princess! Are you alright ! Princess Violet!"(Krielov - shouting I guess)

As Krielov shout resonated to Violet who was currently at the top of the tower. Hereupon, Violet responded by showing her face and waving towards him. Krielov begin to feel chill down his spine when he saw Violet leaning out narrowly towards the edge of that high location.

" O   Krielov! Come See this It is very high you know!"(Violet)
"Ah, it is dangerous! Don't lean your body so far out!"(Krielov)

Krielov became relieve when he finally manage to see Violet's face, he was concerned whether that this tower that is higher than the palace which is located at the commoner district would be a problem or not. More than that, to be able to build a tower of this scale in an instant with his divine arts, Yusuke whom is shrouded in mystery.

"Why did Zeshald leave someone with so much power behind.....?"(Krielov)

With the sudden appearance of the tower, curious onlookers begin to gather in the gate square, it seems that Krielov days of troubles and needless worries have begin to expand as wrinkles appears between his eyes.

------

"You are the best! Will this continue to remain here?"(Violet)
"Well, Just in case I made it stronger, so there is no fear of it collapsing."(Yusuke)

"I see, the things that are fun have increased by one. Your divine arts seems very interesting."(Violet)
"Well yeah"(Yusuke)

Connecting the observation deck and ground floor is a spiral staircase with a rest floor between every 5 levels.
Although there is a small window at every rest floor, but inbetween each rest point is absolute darkness as there are no lighting yet, thus needing appropriate installation of lighting, as Yusuke gave a brief description of the tower specification, throughout the way Violet had been in a good mood. As the was about to end, Yusuke and his party descended the tower by the long staircase.

"Ah, my legs.... feels like a pole"(Violet)
"To go down .... should I say is tiring.  Sun are you okay?"(Yusuke)
"yes, I am okay"(Sun)

Yusuke and Violet were already out of breathe, but it seems like Sun was still taking it easy. The 2 of them were in full of admiration of her, indeed grew up in the countryside, Sun felt sky and her cheek became alittle red. The gate square have become completely dark, stationed in front was a carriage of welcome from the palace.

"Today you guys are going to say in the palace, the rooms are currently being prepared."(Violet)
"I say this because it seems too much of a formality, I would rather stay in some inn in the city."(Yusuke)

"It must not be allowed"(Violet)
"why not...."(Yusuke)

To say that she is not being particular about the Palace etiquette, thus giving Yusuke a peace of mind, Violet brought his group to the palace.
