Episode 150: In the Royal Palace (3)

"The drawback of this door..."

Swallow the gokuri and spit and wait for the continuation of your brother-in-law's words.

No, everyone who was on the spot as well as me was waiting for that word.

"... that anyone can move around easily."

A sigh of "Phew" pops out of everyone. It was simpler than I thought.

Wasn't that the purpose of making it easier for you to get around without calling me once?

I feel like your brother-in-law's pointing out denies his purpose in the first place...

"... brother-in-law, is that all"

When I visited, my brother-in-law nodded with little words.

Yeah? What the hell is going on? You've accomplished your purpose properly, and there's nothing wrong with that, right?

When I'm roaring and thinking, Sylphi slaps her hand, "Oh, I see."

I suppose the king understands the drawback of not saying anything either.

She also has the expression that Aerie doesn't know, but she just found out about this door in the first place.

Actually, I'm the only one who doesn't understand the flaws.

... Well, because I don't know, I must have made something that would point to shortcomings.

"... I'm sorry, I don't know"

When I said that honestly, the king gave me a hint, not your brother-in-law.

"Mine, the guy named the flaw Alto said is a problem that can be managed to some extent in the way it operates. But I'm sure you'll have a problem with a specific use."

Can you handle the operation to a certain extent? But I have trouble when it comes to a specific use...? I don't know more and more.

"Well, if the only one who uses this door is the one in your house and the one who got the contract of Master Fenrill, it won't be a problem.

But what if, for example, Morg, who was in the office earlier, was going to use it?

Now my brother-in-law gave me a more specific example and told me.

... I see who made something out of this standard first.

And I wonder if my name will be a candidate soon.

For me, who absolutely wants to keep my skills secret, I can tell you that this is certainly an unsavory situation.

I don't think it's a good time for an unspecified number of people to be able to use this door.

In this state, the details of this door are asked every time.

It's probably impossible to deceive me successfully every time.

"As I said earlier, we will be able to prevent it to some extent by basically clarifying how it operates.

Like putting it in the office or in my private room... right. But still not 100%.

Morg, whose name came up earlier, is coming to both. It is rare and irrelevant that the measures prepared collapse because of triviality. "

That's true. In the office, in the king's private room, there is no place for people at all.

Compared to other places, people would come and go overwhelmingly less, but that's still not zero.

To give you an example, these are the maids who work in this royal palace. They also maintain the work pattern and the two previous rooms.

Cleaning of each room and laundry of clothing and betting covers are naturally always carried out daily.

In other words, if they put a moving door on either of these doors, it is inevitable that they will see the door.

Naturally, from the standpoint of being a maid, I don't think they would touch the equipment in those two rooms on their own.

Because it would be difficult to do bad things and buy royal disharmony and get laid off.

But can you tell me that you will never touch the door, what you call a door is probably the treatment of furniture in her perception.

Furniture should naturally be cleaned. If you try to clean the back of the door then...?

Especially if that's the maid who always guides me, I don't think it's going to be so much of a problem.

Anyway, she already knows I'm suddenly in the room.

It's about to be installed in the room until the call bell for when it suddenly shows up.

You don't know why, but you know I'm doing something.

And even if I accidentally open the door, I can only expect to be tied to the fact that the secret of my movement was the existence of this door, which probably won't change anything.

I understand that Aisha and Sylphi “have some secrets," as they did before they learned about my skills, but I don't know the details.

Exactly, that's the situation she is in right now. So does Chancellor Morg in that sense, but he's not in the same position as the maid.

As far as Silfi and his brother-in-law are concerned, he's never a bad person.

I hear you often plot a conspiracy, but all of it is done in the national interest, and it is all for the royal good.

But when it comes to the person who will reveal my secret, the answer is no.

It is only now that we cannot speak inadvertently.

"... that's a drawback indeed..."

"Oh, you see? One more thing, in certain cases… but this is an almost impossible story…"

Yeah, the king said you might have trouble when you say that for a particular use, right?

I wonder what the hell, a specific use in the first place......

"When our royal family abandoned the king's capital and had to flee,"

... Huh?

"Nothing will surprise you, will it? War and civil strife with other countries could make this royal palace a battlefield.

When that happens, women and children have to get away with it? With this door, the possibility of escape should be considerably increased.

But if the chaser notices this door after he escapes... naturally, he'll come after you, won't he?

In that case, it would be difficult for anyone to get in, well, it's a very special case. "

... I see you have a problem with that actually happening.

If this door is going to be on your insurance policy, I'll be happy to do the same.

It's just that you can't do anything either way as it is now.

"Very well. I'll think about it a little bit more."

When I said that, the king and his brother-in-law encouraged me to say, "Oh, I asked for it".

In the meantime, let's give it another try and figure out what to do with it.

"... Now let's talk about this, about the invasion of the Demon Nation, can you talk about it?
