I Favor the Villainess
172. Apprenticeship
"Well done. Near."
During the sight of Imperial Castle, we were invited.
It was me and, for some reason, Alea, who were invited.
I didn't have Alea's outfit, so I asked the store that picked out the dress to finish it with a super express.
Yeah, she's cute while my daughter.
Master Claire was with me until the modem.
I have not been called to see it, so I plan to rendezvous later.
There is a deeply seated Dorothea on the throne, with Mr. Joseph refraining from jittering right on his side.
"I hear the culinary improvements, the whole street has stood out. Well done, Ray."
"Well, because the imperial cooks were excellent. I just inspired it."
In fact, there's not that much I've done.
That I persuaded Dorothea, that I took a culinary battle, that I sent Alea to train young people, that's about it.
There were plenty of other chores, but those are no big deal.
"Let them take the reward. What's good"
"I told Hilda that I want you to protect a group of Bauers from demonic threats."
"Hmm. Anything more specific?
"Your Majesty will think about that. It's part of the defense, isn't it?
"Is that true, too? Okay. Let's think about it."
"Is that all you're talking about?
We talked about the reward, and as far as I'm concerned, I want to go home and fuck Master Claire.
"Well wait. Let Alea take the reward too. What's good"
"Huh...?
Asked by the emperor, Allea looked decent.
"Those under your guidance will say with their mouths shut. You brought back pride."
"You guys...?
By Dorothea.
They were the only ones who had to resist being taught by younger young girls at first, but they changed their minds as they were taught.
"We were probably rotten by the status quo."
Even though he has risen to the highest ranking of cooks in the country called the Ministry of Chefs, the cook is the cook.
Its status was very low.
Even if I had pride in my arms, I was unhappy with the current situation, which was not justifiably appreciated.
"But Dr. Allea told me it wasn't."
In the midst of mentoring, he said that the words Allea had said had taken away their breast grabs.
- You should have a good meal. Rigidan is amazing. It's amazing.
Many people have touched on it before, but it was not possible to become military to be cooks.
Many of them say they are less apt for magic, like Alea.
For them like that, Allea's word that we're wizards, it seems, stained our chests.
'Dr. Allea has given us pride. If you can call it merit, why don't you tell her?'
That's what they said, apparently.
"The prize for you is the summation of all the cooks. Take it."
"Yes!
Allea replied gladly and well.
Alea, you've done a fine job.
The night we cried together when we were found unsuitable makes it seem like a long time ago.
"Okay. So what do you want?
"Is everything okay?
"Tell me."
"Well...... then, as much as May the Quadcaster, I want to be awesome"
When I heard Allea's wish, I was annoyed.
Even if he didn't put it in his mouth, Alea still felt inferior.
"Hmm, well. That's a tough one."
"No?
"The Emperor of the Empire has no two words. Don't worry. I'll work you out."
To that word of Dorothea, I doubted my ears.
The emperor himself trains Alea?
Does that mean that the Sword God takes disciples?
"The Emperor of the Empire has never asked another country for a guide or anything!
Grandpa Ya complained.
That would be so.
Because Alea is a Bauer who fought a war until now.
"I would have just heard"
"Please don't manipulate me. Be aware of your position!
"Grandpa, was the emperor narrow enough to lie to a young child when you gave him your life to advise him?
"Please don't make your own offensive material!
"You can protect me if you want to, Grandpa."
Grandpa Ya, who doesn't even make any noise.
I can't believe you need more strength than the Devil Clan to protect someone like you called the Sword God.
"Starting tomorrow...... no, I'll work you out now. Come on."
"Yes!"
"Sire!"
"Er... no, wait a minute, Your Majesty!?
"What. You too."
"Alea's body is still less than ten girls!?
I know it's good to watch you train with Master Rod, but I'm really worried about Dorothea being the guide of enemy lands and not yet trusted by humans.
"Strengthen your body. Let your men do the magic, and arrange for recovery."
"But it is -"
"What if my daughter wants it, and you don't turn to her?"
No, I'm not facing Philine. I don't want you to say it - but the words that followed pressed it down my throat.
"Your daughter, little one, has already pulled the blade out of her sheath."
I have anxiety.
Yes, but this is also what Allea wanted.
And if Alea goes on the path of the sword, I can also say that there is no more environment.
I got lost.
"Ray, please come with me."
"Alea......"
"I want to get better. Claire, hey, hey, hey, Ray, hey, hey. Like you."
Seeing a strong will dwell in those flimsy eyes, I set my mind.
"Okay. Please."
"Um, I'll take care of it. Oh, yeah. Filine was calling for you, Ray-Taylor. They want to talk. Go get him."
"Okay. Alea, do your best."
"Yes!"
That being said, Allea left the throne with Dorothea.
"... you're struggling, Mr. Joseph"
"If you think so, please stop your majesty."
"No, it's an opportunity I don't even wish to beg the Sword God to teach."
"It could be a trap, right?
"Due to His Majesty's character, I was wondering if there was any"
"... oh, yeah"
Oh, boy, rubbing my eyes, Grandpa Ya.
"May I ask where Master Filine's room is?
"Let someone guide you. Please step back."
"Yes, thank you"
I saw it after me, too.
◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆
"I've seen you a lot lately."
"I'm not happy at all"
Hilda was the guide Grandpa Ya arranged for me.
I don't think anyone can blame me for the way I looked.
"You've raised one more position within the Empire."
Hilda said it looked interesting.
Apparently, Alea already knows that she will be coached by Dorothea.
"The next case is Allea's feat."
"That area must be your adopted daughter, right? Same thing."
Well, I am certainly the guardian of Alea.
"Well, let's not say anything extra right now. It's no good hating you any more."
"Ha."
It's not that I don't like Hilda, but it's not that I like her special.
Though there may be some bad consciousness and fellow haters.
"That was Master Filine's room. I'll show you."
That said, Hilda took the lead and walked out.
"Rumor has it you can do things like a prophet, right, Ray-Taylor?
"I can't do that, that's all."
You probably heard it from someone who was letting Bauer infiltrate during the revolution, but you can't admit it.
"Then what did you say to me during this time? You said you couldn't be more ambitious."
Ahhh.
I told you, speaking of which.
I was just going to get hurt then, but it was an extra word.
"It's a little insight."
"If that's true, it's a big deal. Besides, prophecies and things don't seem complete."
Hmm?
I wonder what that means?
"This way."
Hilda stood in front of one room.
Apparently, this is Filine's room.
"Then I'll do it."
"Thank you"
After I dropped off Hilda, I knocked on the door to Filine's room.
"... Yes"
"It's Ray. I wanted to talk to you."
"Please come in."
"Excuse me."
I opened the door and went inside.
It didn't seem to be locked.
Not careless?
It was somehow dim in the room.
The lights have been dropped as far as possible and cannot be seen behind the room.
"Dear Philine?
"In the back, Ray."
Go ahead with a hit on the voice.
I wonder what it is.
I have a bad feeling about it.
"Ray......"
Filine was in the bedroom.
In front of the bed, I'm standing with my back to this one.
"What's wrong, without turning on the lights"
I didn't want to be seen.
"I'm sure I look terrible right now"
The next moment, Master Filine jumped at me.
"!? Philly...... Dear Sir......!
He took a mount position called martial arts and was strangled.
"... please die... Ray-Taylor"
