Chapter 1920 Frederik's Thoughts
The summer was quite a beautiful one, bringing many across international waters to Baymard. Some also came through unknowingly, but suddenly felt like never leaving. It's been 2 days since Frederik, Kilmonga, Bain, Decan and a few others arrived at Baymard.
Who can tell them why such a place existed and they in Tenola knew nothing about it? Fortunately, Pyron was very similar to Morg language, so they could understand and communicate with the people here too. Finally, they could now put a face to the one that has been sending people to protect and rescue all this while. His Majesty Landon Barn of Baymard. They thought he should be arrogant and snobbish, after building such a wonderful place for himself, but still smacked them in the face after seeing how humble he was. Damn. What was a monarch? This was a monarch! In their grand suits were computers, radios, and televisions to keep them up to date with Baymard's world. Amazing! So he was the one who came up with so many godly ideas and items? (*0*)
Frederik, who prided himself as being one of the greatest researchers who loves to tinker at things, was so impressed and in awe that he couldn't stop staring towards Landon's Disney-like castle building in a daze. What sort of brain was this? From one researcher to another, Fredrik concluded that it was impossible for someone who only thinks of research and such ideas to have evil intentions for him. Again, just to be sure, they decided to move around the grand city and see how the people lived, whether the smiles they wore or masks or true faces of joy. Well, they had to confess that they started off with that plan on day 1, but somehow got lost in excitement like Tourists traveling through the Savannah. Every time, they would say Oooo and Aaaa~ when something appealed to them. Snapping his cheeks with his hands, Frederik rose up, took a bath, sighing at how convenient it was to have hot water and cold water at one's disposal. Because they were in unknown territory, Duncan, Bain and Kilmonga, chose to stay in Frederik's suit with him. Luckily, Frederik's suit had 4 Bedrooms: A master Bedroom and 3 other luxurious bedrooms too, though but as grand as the master bedroom This suite was a Royal family styled suit, and was quite exquisite. The mini-bar, the massive Jacuzzi in a separate mini room within the bathroom that has a button to lower the shades of the windows or raise them high in one wanted to feel as though they were bathing outdoors in nature. There were potted plants, nicely carved pebbles and stones, and a window that could also completely open up, allowing the outside air to enter the space. Truthfully, one can feel they were in some jacuzzi outdoors. Well, lest not forget about the fridges that were filled with complimentary goodies that made them salivate. But what's this? Why does the Aquarium in the master bedroom make the place look as though they were sleeping with the fishes? Awesome! You can do this too? What ingenuity! What creativity! What– Error! Error! Error! Frederik's brain began malfunctioning the more he saw. Just how did such a small place birth such wonders here in Hertfilia?

Thinking of all he already saw, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't amazed.
Yesterday, he went to the public library and was shocked that everything was for free. Free! Are you kidding him? What place in this world builds a library for free? Even in Academies, one isn't allowed to even glimpse at a book without emptying one's pickets clean. The cost of a simple book in Tenola could be even more expensive than a peasants 6 months salary. Nobles drove up the cost, ensuring peasants remained illiterate. That was how it was around the world, at least that's how he thought it would be. But here in Baymard… no! Apparently within the many Treaty-signed empires, ordinary peasants now knew how to read. Tell me, would someone with evil intentions allow commoners and peasants to read? When hearing the cost of writing materials and books here in Baymard, Frederik and the others suddenly felt incredulous. Hold on, the exercise book they held dear when they were in Tenola, was just an ordinary commodity here that even a beggar can buy? (0_0)
Don't forget how clean and organized their streets are. If before, taking the throne was a passing thought he decided on because of his men, now... after coming to Baymard, he wished to develop and improve Laboon empire far beyond what it currently was.
… All in all, their official day one in Baymard was something they'll never forget in a hurry.
To be more specific, they arrived at Baymard a day and a half ago. When they first arrived in the afternoon, they were taken to the bank and then to the Palace, where they were still marveling about everything in their rooms that they didn't want to come out. The next day they began their adventure using the Baymardian tour maps in their suite. It was incredible that Baymard actually gave maps to strangers, not fearing that the enemy would take advantage of this information to use against them. How confident and gusty do you have to be to pull such a move? Yesterday evening after returning, they also did Google research on the next places they planned to visit today. Tsk. This thing called the Internet sure was convenient. It answered questions faster than having to run around looking for who to ask.
After memorizing the information on the web, they were now confident about today's outing. Oops! Decan glanced at his watch and was already anxious. "Your Highness, it's already breakfast!" Yesterday, they went a little late for breakfast downstairs and saw that those bastards staying in this building with them, had almost cleared off all meals there. Although more replacements were brought out from the kitchen later, they didn't have time to sit waiting when there was a big place like Baymard to explore. Sure enough, the Baymardian expression: Time is money, is definitely right.
