The castle cafeteria is large.

Large enough spaces are set aside for about twenty people to sit in a row in such a large table that I wonder if the houses of the common people will fit together.

There are many large plates serving colorful dishes at that table, and it should be noted that butlers and maids continue to serve meals.

I've seen this sight a couple of times since I was a kid, and Irene asked me to interrupt, so I'm used to seeing it.

"Heh... what the hell"

"Shh, it's amazing..."

Satsuki and Mi, who entered the dining room about Eileen and me, exclaim.

Cyril next door could also see how nervous and cocky she was, even though she didn't speak to her voice.

"Oh, you know what, why are we talking about dinner at such a great place?

"Wow, don't ask me! It's all William's fault!

"I kind of feel like Mi is partying with a hell of a lot of people..."

For some reason, it seemed that some of them were replacing me.

This situation simply stems from the fact that I'm a friend of Eileen's, and if I insist, I think it's caused by that Eileen's whim...

"Uh, Will's next to me, so here it is. I was wondering if all your people would sit over there."

Eileen in a dress instructs Tekipaki to take her seat.

I guess holding her just like that doesn't mean "sit properly".

Me and the three girls take their seats in the chair they were instructed to take.

Irene nodded contentedly when she saw it and took the seat next to me herself.

Then Eileen sees the three girls sitting face-to-face and she hears me softly.

"And they're all cute, aren't they? How did you get caught up with all those beautiful girls?... I mean, Will, you know, what... you're interested in girls, or you're starting to have them quite a bit?

"No, that doesn't matter at all. I just met them as a party member candidate who happens to fit the criteria"

"Oh, yeah, it's Will, isn't it?... By the way, do you hang out with the girl you like?

"So I have nothing to do with that kind of relationship.... No, if I don't feel ashamed of being over-conscious, I also feel like I'm actually being told by about one person, but I'm just not going to do that here. Being in a relationship between a man and a woman makes it harder for you to continue as an adventurer."

"Wow... that's Will, a bucket of reason. I mean, uh, that's a lot of surprises... but I might have felt a little relieved. Then it's still on me..."

"Are you relieved? Why?"

"Ugh, yeah, it's nothing. Talk over here."

Eileen dyes her cheeks red and shakes her hand blindly to cut the story.

As always, I'm not sure about this place.

Meanwhile, seeing how we were doing, the three of us, Satsuki, Mi and Cyril, seemed to be telling some secrets.

There are things over there that I guess you can't tell me or Eileen.

And then...

"─ Oh, William! You've grown in a while."

From the entrance to the dining room, I heard a good, tough voice on the street.

I recognize the Lord of the Voice and stand up for a meeting.

"Long time no see, King Andrew. Thank you for inviting us to dinner."

"Ha, by way of example, my beloved daughter's selfishness, nothing to be afraid of. - Three of your most beautiful beauties are adventurers with William, aren't they?

And it came to pass from the entrance of the dining room, that Andrew, king of the land, became Irene's father.

I have the impression that he is strong, musculoskeletal and strong, walking in the king's clothes.

Silver hair of the same colour as Eileen is cut short, and while its eyelids look flamboyant, it has the sharpness behind it to shoot this one through.

I remember my age was certainly about the late thirties, but I never see any signs of decay compared to about five years ago when I last saw him.

Satsuki, Mi, and Cyril rush to take their seats and thank each other for the person's arrival.

As for Satsuki, Cyril slapped him in the butt and forced him to do so.

"You don't have to be so hard on me. I didn't have to know if I was in front of the other nobles, and today I'm just a home party that invited my daughter's friends. I don't mind being rude to them."

That being said, King Andrew slips back into his seat.

And he said, "Sit down," so we sat down in our seats, too.
