Episode 253 Mine's Alumni (2)

"Princess ~, who was it?

"Oh, sounds like your husband's friend. I kept this."

I received and watermarked the seal the princess had taken and looked inside.

"Oh? Sounds like a missing ticket for a reunion.

"Hmm... I think he said that"

"Well, Mayne, I didn't know that because I wouldn't ask you much back in the day, but you went to training school for the Adventurer's Guild."

"Hmm, it's about your husband, so I guess he was a big favorite at school? ……

"By the way, Aisha, isn't that husband leaving yet?

"No, Princess! As I said earlier, I'm not back from the royal palace yet. If you care so much."

"So, Mine, why don't I talk to you?

"No, fine. I'll pick you up directly at the royal palace."

"Aisha... is that what you're talking about?

"I think we can talk to Sasha soon... if you can, please listen to me now"

"Really? Is that a secret you can't tell me?... Ok. Sooner or later, I'm not going to ask."

"... but Mr. Aisha. Please call me Sasha. Are you going to be a family now?

"Yeah, okay, Sasha."

"Mm-hmm. Still... tough... I was wondering if you could talk to me more normally?

"Heh, okay, Sasha. Thanks again."

"Yes! Nice to meet you, Aisha!!

"I don't like it, Sasha. Wouldn't you like to call me out?

"Phew, I'm sorry, Aisha. By the way, where is Master Sylphide?

"Oh, Mayne, if you're a princess, I can't seem to wait for your return, so I picked you up at the royal palace."

"... is that right, then, Master Mine and Mr. Sylphide, you're home late at night?

"No, I think he'll be back as early as an hour."

"... but I heard from this town that the Wang Dynasty takes half a day by carriage"

(Uh-huh. Is it okay to talk about moving doors?

"Yeah, you can get to Wang Du in an instant. There's a magic trick called a moving door."

"Huh? So you're saying you'll see your sister in Wang Du soon?

"To Master Starcharion? Wouldn't it be okay if I could tweak my plans?... Although it may not be convenient for her to be the next queen..."

"... hey, can you show me that moving door?

"Fine, | That (moving door) is installed at the cranhouse, so why don't you come with me?

That's what I said, and I took Sasha's arm and the two of us started moving to the permanent sunflower (Eternal Sunflower) cranhouse to the front of the moving door.

"Huh?, Aisha......? Is this the door? Something's blurry, but are you okay?

Yes, it is. The moving door itself was gleaming.

"Oh, I think someone's coming this way from the other side. For now, let's hide in the shadows there. I don't think there's any danger..."

When me and Sasha hid in the shadows, the moving door opened with a noise of Ki ~ and a full-plate female knight appeared from inside.

... Yes, nothing else. It was Princess Sylphide.

"Princess!

"Hmm? Aisha or why are you hiding out there like that? If you look closely, is Lord Sasha with you?"

When the princess spoke out like that, she also saw from behind her our companion, Mayne, and Princess Sheila.

"I'm home, Aisha, Sasha"

"Welcome back, Mr. Mine. How'd it go with Sheila?

"... we'll talk about that later"

"Then I got word of the reunion while I was away. I want you to tell me about your training school days."

"Oh, yeah. Sylphi told me. I guess we'll talk about that later too... but I don't think that's a funny story, huh?

"Yeah, it's okay. I don't know about you, Mine, and I want to know about you..."
