Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

First story: I'm going to inspect the territory. ①

It's been a week since the Dark Market was devastated.

Ever since then, I've been looking for and capturing the remnants of the party who managed to survive in the Dark Market City.

Some of the survivors also mixed illegal slaves that Lou didn't kill, so of course those people helped them.

After all, he seems to be suffering a great deal of heartbreak, so now he's got me living with the Gotz ex-slaves.

Only Leena and Bell seem to be trusted, and the two seem to try to face each other every day.

I heard from the two of you that it still takes time to recover.

Well, I can't do anything for you, but I can't help it. Let's hope it gets a little better soon.

And I checked out the people who survived in Dark Market City... and most of them were just criminals like they were wanted.

He was a dark merchant, an assassin, a bandit... true, the darkness of this world was condensed over there.

These outrageous numbers of extremely evil criminals sent them to Imperial Capital because they had trouble handling them.

I can't get into the castle, so I'm really glad you accepted me at the Imperial City.

By now, my uncles will have been interviewed by the Special Forces in Imperial City.

And about Lou... nothing in particular to say.

For a week, I was just gobbling around doing nothing in my room.

If we were to meet in one day, it would have been just lunch time in the morning and evening.

Well, I don't like it when something goes wrong, so let's hope it stays like this forever.

Oh, speaking of which, you only had one thing to say.

Lou missed Shelley.

Other than the time I'm gobbling in my room, I think I'm stuck with Sherry and acting.

Well, it doesn't look like Shelley or Mandarin, and I'm gonna be fine because I'm baking you some kind of care.

Like that, I didn't have to worry so much about Lou.

The real problem is... we're going to have to figure out how we're going to change this city.

I have plenty of money, but I've been too busy to think about anything...

First of all, it's natural to correct the rules of this city...... what else can you do?

"Yeah......"

"What is it?

When I was worried, Mr. Flair, who was sorting out paperwork next door, worried me.

"I'm thinking about how we're going to change this city... and I can't think of anything. I don't even know what's wrong with this city... Has Mr. Flair ever thought that something needs to be fixed in this city?

Mr. Flair, you seem very good, and you're going to come up with some good ideas, aren't you?

You'll be familiar with the administration compared to me, and you're going to tell me pong what I can't notice.

"There is only one thing. This city is too insecure."

When I asked the question, Mr. Flair gave me an immediate answer.

After all, Mr. Flair seems to have some ideas.

Too insecure...

"Well, it's true... there's a Dark Market City or something..."

"That's not all. This city has too few gendarmes against the population."

Gendarmerie? Oh, you meant an organization like the police of a previous life.

Are there few gendarmes......

Speaking of which, you've never seen a soldier-like person come to this city and patrol the city yet.

"Yeah... we have to do something about that"

"Yes, they think we should do something about it as soon as possible"

"Okay. Still, how come there are so few gendarmes?

There's plenty of money in this city, so you don't have to cheat as much money as the Gendarmerie, do you?

"I looked into it... the funds that were supposed to be used for the gendarmerie were embezzled by the former administrator. That's why they couldn't hire a new gendarme."

"That's all there is to it... Oh, you gots..."

Not again! He... if he was still in the castle, he would have hit me as hard as he wanted.

"Oh, well, keep the gendarmerie recruited. And give him a higher salary for the gendarmerie than ever."

Probably because you've been having a rough time.

I'd be pathetic if I didn't treat you better.

"Yes, I understand"

"Yeah, I asked for it. Well, I guess I'll check out the city."

I haven't really looked around the city since I became lord here.

So for now, I decided to start by walking around this city and finding out how it went.

If you find out what's going on in the city, you'll find something you want to do for the city.

"Huh? Just one of you, is it?

"Yes. Oh, of course I'll do the disguise, won't I?

It doesn't make sense if the boulder finds out who you are.

I think we should go outside dressed as adventurers, the usual.

People who know my face will be less on boulders, and if I'm not clearly dressed as a nobleman, I'll be fine.

"That's not what I meant...... okay. Take care."

"Yeah. Then I'm coming!

That's what I said. I went to the bedroom to get dressed.

Then... Shelly walked in from across the hallway just as she left the room.

"Ah, Leo. What's the matter with you?

You're walking free...... Well, I hope it's safe now.

"I'm going to do a city inspection. Get dressed and I'll be there."

"Huh? Cheating! Take me with you! Hey, okay?

Shelly grabbed my hand and asked me to look cute when she heard I was going out.

Oh, speaking of which, I answered casually and honestly, but this is what happens when I tell you...

What am I gonna do?

"Huh? Are you coming with me? Yeah...... are you okay?

Well, okay. It seems pathetic to keep him locked up in the room all the time.

You'll be fine if you disguise yourself.

Since we've taken the criminals together lately, isn't there anyone in the boulder who's trying to make a scene on the boulder or vice?

With that in mind, now Leena and Bell came from behind Shelley.

"What's wrong, both of you?

"Oh, listen! Leo's going to the city alone."

"Really? Good luck, Leo."

I heard I was going outside. Leena seems to drop me off with a warm smile as opposed to Shelly.

Something tells me Leena feels so grown-up since she helped illegal slaves out of Gotz Mansion...

"Be careful, Master Leo"

Of course, Belle has nothing to say about herself.

Conversely, I want Belle to be sweeter.

"Huh? Are you sure?

Shelley was surprised because it wasn't the same reaction Leena and Bell thought.

Well, if it was Leena a while ago, I'd go with Shelly, too. Right.

"It's work, isn't it normal to go outside?

After all, Leena's grown up.

"Oh, yeah... you don't want to go with me?

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm leaving a message. It'll get in Leo's way and..."

Yeah...... don't get kind of sorry when they put up with you that much.

Oh, I came up with a good thing.

"I don't have a choice... okay. Is it okay if I mean just Shelley following me? You two, please leave a message. Well, then, Shelly needs to get dressed for this. And how about a different hairstyle? Then come to my room when you're ready."

I created and gave Shelley my clothes while I said that.

Shelley can't have ordinary people's clothes.

I made you new clothes for disguise.

"Huh? Oh, yeah...... Huh? You're taking me!? What are these clothes!?

Shelley took a while to marvel if she couldn't keep up with handling it with her head.

"Yeah, fine. This is clothes for disguise. Hurry up and get dressed."

"Ma, wait! Can you take me with you?

Next to Shelley, happy to spread her clothes, Leena finally spoke with her mouth open, surprised by my unexpected permission.

"Yeah. Well, it's like half a play. But I thought Shelley would stand out when she left town, so I decided to get her dressed as a common man."

"Oh, no..."

Leena looked disappointed to see.

Oh, don't look so sad, because I'll take you.

"The Leenas are leaving a message, aren't they? Then I'll make a friendly inspection with Leo."

When I tried to end the mean thing quickly because I looked cute, Shelly dozed on Leena as she showed her clothes.

Damn... Leena's about to cry.

"Fair enough. Look, come and get Lena and Belle dressed, too. Dressed like nobility, please?

No more bullying on the boulders, so I created clothes for both of them and gave them to them.

For a moment, Leena looked decent and then alternated clothes with me, laughing happily.

"Oh, thank you! I'll get dressed in a hurry! Shelly, I'm coming!

Leena hugged her clothes happily and went as soon as she thanked me.

"Wait!

"Uh... Can I get some clothes, too? I think it's necessary for both of us to disguise..."

After the two of them went, Bell seemed sorry to say that.

"Isn't it weird that you don't just give it to Bell? Besides, I'd love to see Belle in those clothes... So, don't worry about it, will you wear it? Oh, and I need you to help Shelly and the others get dressed."

It's free because I built it with creative magic, and you don't have to worry about it.

"Wow, I get it. Thank you."

With his face red on my words, Bell hurried to go after Shelley and the others as he bowed.

Yeah, you're all three cute.

Then I dressed up as my usual adventurer and waited in my room.

Well, I knew it would take a while to get the girl ready, so I waited for the temper, especially with nothing in mind.

"I'm sorry I'm late. It took me a while to disguise Sherry."

"Wah, my fault!? Even Leena didn't move from the front of the mirror the whole time!

"Sorry I'm late. Excuse me."

Oh, I'm finally here.

Looking out, I turned my gaze toward the door where the three of us came in noisy.

"Wow... you're all three cute"

Leena... was wearing the colorful clothes I created.

Yeah, you feel like a cute kid who has a sense of commonality and looks back unexpectedly if he's wrong in the city.

Looks like Belle wore the clothes I gave her, too.

Well, don't look normal because Bell is a common man.

Conversely, next time, you might want to try putting a dress on Bell.

You won't like him in person, but I'd like to see him ~.

Shelley in question was wearing a piece I created and always had her hair down tied in two.

Yeah, I guess I'll be fine with this. I also like the usual feeling of The Princess... but Sherry with this slightly more important vibe would be nice.

"Yeah, I'm glad the clothes you gave them all look good."

Well, the three of us didn't worry about that much because we created the clothes by imitating the pretty clothes I thought I saw in Imperial City.

"" "Huhuhuhuhuhuhu" ""

The three laughed happily at each other.

"Hmm? Was something wrong?

"No, I was just happy. Thank you for the clothes present."

When I asked the question, Leena answered me.

"I'm glad you're happy. I'm glad you're here. Well, let's go."

"" "Yes" "
