After hearing the explanation from Vael, I felt surprised. They had worked together to expand and renovate the dungeon on a large scale in just over a month.
It's just so awesome!
However, there was one question that came to mind. Why did He not join his brothers in the project, especially as the second oldest brother after Sebas?
"Why don't you help your brothers in expanding and renovating the dungeon?" manya curious.
Vael answered cheerfully, "Don't worry, Dad. I helped them in the process. The three of us often worked together to expand and renovate the dungeon, but today it was my turn to look after Father. So, I stopped to spend time with my dad today."
"Every day we take turns looking after Dad, and of course I'm so happy to be by your side today!" vael continued with happiness, as his body trembled.
They all voluntarily took turns to look after and take care of me while I was asleep. Isn't this too much?
However, I realized that for them, I was a creator they admired with great respect.
They see me as a father and lord who must be respected and protected.
Even though I'm just a human being trapped in a dragon's body.
Inevitably, I must play the role of a wise father to them. I don't want to disappoint them and will try to be a person they deserve to respect and follow.
I listened to Vael's explanation and grew curious.
I asked, "Are Aleister, Luna, and Julie in the process of expanding and renovating the dungeon?"
Vael replied, "It seems like Brother Sebas' words are true, Father. Sebas argued that Aleister, Luna, and Hades did not need to participate in the excavation and expansion of Father's dungeon, as they were too young. As the oldest brother, Sebas, I, and Karina are in charge of the process."
I was surprised by that explanation. I just wanted to know why they didn't come, but there was Sebas' consideration.
I continued my question, "How long have the three of you worked in expanding my dungeon each day, and when have you guys had enough rest?"
I saw a look of confusion on Vael's face. "Sorry, Dad, but we never rest. We worked non-stop, digging, renovating, and expanding the territory of Dad's dungeon every day. For us, it's happiness because we can be useful to Dad."
I pondered for a moment.
They work non-stop for 24 hours nonstop every day!
I was shocked and worried.
In the previous world, something like this could be referred to as rood work or forced labor and could put someone in jail. I don't want them to experience slavery or oppression like I did in my previous life.
Even though they are golems and may not feel fatigue like living beings, I still do not want them to work endlessly like slaves. I don't want them to lose their freedom.
Hmm, looks like I'm going to talk to Sebas.
I told Vael to call Sebas into this room. He quickly left and left me alone in the room.
I watched the huge door and admired its size.
I am alone in this room.
My mind started to drift and I was curious to get out and see the entire floor and the room that had been remodeled so big by my golems—or rather, my children.
"Huaa... I'm not used to calling them 'kids', '" I murmured. I felt happy and happy with their presence.
But now I want to get out of this room and explore the results of the renovations that my children have done. I intend to stand up and leave this room.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
Geck... Geck... Geck...
I was a little surprised and surprised.
"Who is that? Why should I knock? They could have gone in without knocking" I said.
Suddenly, I heard Vael's voice from outside. "Excuse me, Dad. Sebas and I wanted to come in" he said.
Eh? Have they arrived?
I just got Vael out a few minutes ago. So fast!
In my heart, I felt somewhat tired of the role of being a great father to all of them. But I have to encourage myself. It is my responsibility as their creator.
"Yes! Spirit, myself!" I said to myself.
I prepared myself to welcome them.
The two 15-meter-high doors opened wide, and I saw the two of them looking small in front of the big door.
I was amazed to see the difference in size.
It looks like the door can open and close automatically without the need to be pushed or pulled. Advanced technology, it's amazing.
Vael and Sebas walked towards me, and they slowly knelt before me, putting one hand on his chest as a sign of respect.
"We are present, Father," said the two of them with great respect.
"good. I want to talk to you, Sebas, as the oldest brother" I said.
I looked at Vael, and before I wanted to tell him to leave for a moment from this room, he suddenly nodded at me and stood up slowly from his kneeling position, then left this room.
Eh? I haven't told him to leave.
Can he read my mind?
Ah, no way, because I have the Anti-Skill ability that prevents such a thing.
I don't know. Most importantly, he's out.
I now looked at Sebas who was still kneeling before me with his head lowered.
Why isn't he staring at me? Do I have to make him raise his head to look at me? Yeah, it seems like it.
All of this reminds me of the era of empires in Europe, and I now feel like a king.
"Free, lift up your head" I said in a heavy voice, gesturing for him to raise his head in a kneeling position before me.
Sebas slowly raised his head, looking at me with a gaze filled with respect and devotion.
"Good, Dad. What do you want me to talk about? Are you not satisfied with my performance? If so, I'll work even harder, Dad!" sebas said with a sad tone.
"Ah, no, Sebas. I'm so happy and proud of you, in fact. I have heard about your work through your sister, as I have seen in this house. Ah, I mean our house is now more beautiful" I said with a smile.
"I want to talk about you and your sisters" I continued.
"My sisters?" sebas said with a confused face.
Sebas pondered for a moment, trying to understand whether Dad was angry with his younger siblings. However, that is unlikely because Vael has conveyed that Father has just woken up from his long break on this day.
"Is this about their job, Dad?" sebas asked in confusion.
I nodded in response to Sebas.
"Yes, from now on you and your sisters can stop working to develop this dungeon. I think it's enough and you guys must be tired and need some rest. Send my message to your brothers and sisters" I said firmly.
"But, Dad! What's the point of being a child if you can't boast of your father and creator? We all want to be proud of Dad and be useful to Dad in this house! And a-a...." said Sebas with excessive protest before I answered him.
I heard an exaggerated answer from Sebas. Why are they always overreacting like this? Ah, this is really exhausting.
My patience began to run out with Sebas' stubbornness, and I displayed a little [Draconic Aura] ability that made Sebas speechless in fear.
"Enough, Sebas! I don't want to hear it anymore!" I said firmly.
"B-well, A-Dad! W-forgive me!" sebas said with fear, sweating.
It seemed like he was finally quiet now. I also lost my [Draconic Aura] skill.
"Alright, if you understand. That's all I want to talk to you about, Sebas," I said in a calm voice.
"You can go now, Sebas," I continued.
"Good, Dad! And may I ask Dad one request before I leave this room?" sebas said on his knees before me, with his head down.
Hmm, requests?
It really doesn't matter anymore, let alone that he has made a huge contribution to this house. I can think of it as a gift for a child who is devoted to his parents, right?
"Well, say what you want, Sebas?" I said with curiosity.
Sebas raised his head and looked at me with a flat face, though I knew he must be very happy now.
"I want to see the outside world, Dad" Sebas said enthusiastically.
