6-Year Old Sage Wants to Tread in The Shadows ~Becoming the Ruler of Darkness and Training My Retainers I’ll Build the Strongest Country~

In the reception room with Princess Clarisse.

How long has it been?

I'm still being hugged.

I gauged when her crying had subsided and tried to speak up.

"... calm down? Princess."

"Oh, what a shame..."

Releasing me in a hurry, Princess Clarisse took a breath as she wiped the marks of tears on her cheek with her fingertips.

My nose is still red, but I'm glad the tears stopped.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone what you were crying about."

"... fufufu. Thank you very much."

The princess narrows her eyes in a slightly chaotic laugh.

You look pretty young with this look.

What an unexpected six-year-old.

"You're already a fine gentleman when you're young. And you are the messiah of the prophecy. I respect you, too. - No, Eddie."

Suddenly, I was surprised at the way they called me honorable.

From the princess's face, the euphoria just disappeared and the mood became stronger.

It's not just a six-year-old face.

An envy of reciprocity, rather than respect.

Oh, this is not a bad one...

When I became more vigilant, my parents came back to see how I was. [M]

Good, it's on.

Hide behind your parents with children.

That's how I tried to run away.

"Dear Eddie,

"Wow."

Princess Clarisse grabbed my right hand and didn't let me go.

"Dear Eddie, I have an important question."

"... what? Princess."

"You do not want honor or status as a Savior. Isn't it?

I nodded to the question. [M]

"Yes, I want to live on the street now! School starts next month."

When she heard my answer, Princess Clarice closed her eyes as if she was consolidating her resolve. [M]

"I see how you feel. Just be careful, Eddie. Our country is not alone in realizing that there is a messiah in this land."

... well, that's right.

"It's not hard to imagine other countries relying on you in the future. Not only does Edie's help affect the destiny of a country, but even the fate of the world."

"Oh no... even though Eddie is only six years old..."

My parents rush towards me in a hurry.

"Whether you have a good prophet or not, you don't even know that the Savior is Eddie. But you can keep an eye on where you are. Like my country. If we don't want Eddie to get noticed, we will do everything we can to protect him."

Princess Clarisse, my father, my mother and I were all alone in my gaze.

"Thank you, princess. But I'm fine."

"Dear Eddie...."

I do not intend to take refuge in the state.

Despite their low stats, most enemies didn't feel like losing.

I don't want to be in a situation where I owe my country.

Life this time is free and peaceful.

This is what I want to do above all else... above my own life.

"Because if you go to Princess's country, you won't be able to go to school, will you? Besides, the castle people will be surprised if I go suddenly. [M] Why do you have kids in this place?"

"... yeah. That's right. You're right."

I was surprised that Princess Clarisse accepted my point. [M]

She should have come here to protect me.

As a result, I lost even my knight.

"Don't I have to go?

"How could Eddie be so ungrateful?"

"But that's why the princess came here...."

"I'll convince you about my father.... just, Eddie. Now you are...."

I smiled at him.

"It's okay, because I'm going to school!

"... I see! Once you get into the dorm of the academy....."

I nod to my father's words. [M]

"If you only know where it is, you can run to a different place."

Each member of the family looked at each other.

The expression is really okay with that.

But everybody thinks about it somewhere easy.

I'm doing it because my son says, "I want you to keep it to yourself," and my magnificent power is not something my family wants to hide anything from me.

Well, you'd better feel that light.

I like my family. [M]
