disturbance in the earthen pit
The season is touring and a new spring is upon us.
That was similar not only in Ishtarika, but also in the neighbouring continent.
—— North side of the continent.
That's the Rockdam Republic there.
After Heim, the continent's second-largest military force and vast premises. And with all the wealth that comes with it, it's another great power.
"Then Master Elena. We'll lead the way, so please don't delay."
"... yeah"
The beginning of the matter was the proposal of the Third Prince Tiggle.
Like Ishtarika, we commit espionage ourselves. That was finally about to be transferred to execution.
I took greater care than ever to prevent things like when Lili happened, but I don't know if I'm actually finding out.
"A really big port......"
Port Town Round Heart. It's a proud port for Heim, but it hasn't lost the port here in Rockdam either.
If you compare the number of ships, maybe you're losing. Not so long ago, it was overflowing with ships owned by adventurers and luxury merchants.
Looking at the selected personnel this time, there is no heavier town than Elena.
Of course, Elena had a lot of difficulty joining us.
Tiggle said, 'Nah! Elena mustn't have any!
Harley said, 'I disagree, too. And sailing with adventurers… I'm worried about it.'
and we were both against Elena going to Ishtarika.
But it took me months to convince him to take part.
"Customers from Birdland -. It's time to pack your stuff.
The merchants set up a seat on the boat on which they would board, and managed to defuse Harley's anxiety.
That being said, there is no difference between a dangerous voyage.
"Then let's come, Master Elena."
"... ok"
It is one civilian who speaks to Elena.
He was in quite a position, too, but Tiggle prepared it for Elena.
He is an older man than Elena and usually has a job about Tiggle.
"(… on the sea for the next few days)"
The journey to Ishtarika is long and arduous.
But still, check Ishtalika with your own eyes. That's bound to help something...... that's what Elena was thinking.
"Speaking of which, Ein. I'm coming with you."
"Oh, Mother? Which way do you want to go...?
The school was over, we went back to the castle as usual, and we ate and bathed as usual.
After that, I was going to do a little work, and then I was going to take a break from reading.
Martha came to Ain's room and Olivia is calling... leaving those words behind.
And Ain walked out of his room and headed to Olivia's room.
"Ahhh... you can't if it moves. It's not over yet... right?
And what Ain't done now.
Nothing nasty, just Olivia combing Ain's hair. That's all.
"Yeah, yeah. You're taking good care of yourself, good boy, Ain't."
"... thank you"
As promised to Krone and the others, Ain's hair is long and tidy.
But then, Ain became more concerned about her hair than ever before because similar care would quickly become rough.
"So, that. What do you mean your mother's coming with you...?
Olivia continues to pass through Ain's hair in an upbeat mood as she sings her nose.
Olivia before bed, she's pretty exposed. For that reason, Ain was careful not to look at that Olivia as much as possible.
"Yeah? Oh, you know what? I'm going to Magna too..."
"What!? Your mother's coming to Magna with you? I hadn't heard that before..."
Or it would be quite important if we were to come to the second princess.
As a matter of fact, Ein is more vocal, but given his popularity and track record so far, it's not only a matter of Olivia coming either.
On the contrary, it will be two days before we head to Magna, and I doubt it will be too abrupt.
"Hehe... I asked your mother. Now that you've given me permission, I can go to Magna with Ain."
So, around not naming my father Silvard, I feel like a balance of power in the Ishtarika family.
But in the end, if you were allowed to, I have no complaints about Ein either.
"When can we talk like that --"
I can go away with Ain.
That was the happier time for Olivia than anything else.
"Because it's not sloppy. Chris has gone far with me to Mr. Krone.... I'm the only one who hasn't been able to go away with Ain?
Ain't got a peek in his face, but with a disgruntled voice, Ain't guessed Olivia's feelings.
"Your mother is, uh, the second princess. I thought it might not be that easy to go out..."
"Yes, I am. But Ain't even Prince Wang, so sometimes I want to go with him."
Even as Ain, I can agree with that thought. As a matter of fact, Olivia and I never had a chance to go away, on our way from Heim to Ishtarika... and I can't say enough about that, because we haven't had one since we got to Ishtarika.
"So it's been a long time since you've enjoyed the town of Magna with your mother,"
"I won't be looking forward to the day. So, Ein, mind your health, too, right?
I plan to stay in Magna for approximately half a month.
In the meantime, Olivia and I have time to enjoy the town, even if it's not the whole day.
"Yes, it's beautiful."
"Thank you. Mother."
Ein's hair is finished combing and Olivia tries to go and punish him.
"Oh, Mother. Can I comb your mother's hair, too, if you like?
I still have time for bed. Besides, I feel bad that I had it done to me, but that's all it's gonna be.
Above all, there was a winning desire to give it to Olivia as well.
"... okay?
"Of course. Come on, Mother, take turns."
Olivia's hair is beautifully combed. I guess I took care of it myself, but, well, I wouldn't mind this kind of skinship.
I thought so, and looking at Olivia with reluctant eyes, Ain pulled her hand and forced her to sit down.
"Let me know if it hurts"
He had a slightly puzzled look, but Ain't cared about it, and took a snort from Olivia's hand.
"Ah... Ain't Ain't been a little hard these days, huh?"
I mouthed it like a dissatisfaction, but by contrast, its voice and expression seemed happy, so Ein laughs at the word and deludes it.
Let's get started.
Seeing her hair exactly the same color as herself, Ain began to gently slip her teeth.
Then a while later, Ain't left Olivia's room.
I thought back to Olivia, who seemed happy, and went into bed in a good mood as well.
The next day I enjoyed my conversation with Olivia.
I woke up as usual and headed to school as usual.
However, the loneliness gradually solicits when we think that attending school, as usual, is almost over.
"So that's it when it comes to in-school rivalry."
The Royal Kingsland School of Spring gets wrapped up in a lot of air every year.
In a few moments, a new year will come in, or those who want to advance and eat their classes to the top.
Especially the air that drifts in the fifth year is the biggest chaos of them all.
"For you guys, before graduation. And if you try other grades, you'll be stressed out after the exam. It took a while, but it's a pretty good time, isn't it?
The highest graders, Ain, will be graduating soon. That's why I shouldn't have had anything to do with the school air, but not this year.
—— A survey conducted within the last year… the topic has now attracted attention.
"Hey Ain! You're leaving, too!
Seeing a bat talking in a healthy voice makes Ein worried about what's going on.
"(... I'm not complacent, but I don't think you should leave)"
Having gained enough strength to defeat Marco, Ein was at the school level wondering if he could compete.
I don't feel like a "bad" race for those watching or competing. I was worried I might get some water.
"Yeah, I'm thinking positively."
"Ah? What the hell. I'm looking forward to having sex with Ain, okay? You're getting big, and you're extra excited!
Ain't grown big, like Bats said.
A number of proposals were conceived last year to make that public. In the end, however, it published 'The Effect of Dry Adds with Strong Power' …, which ended in clouding tea.
Dry adds are small in number, and there are still parts of the world that do not know what kind of ecology they are.
For that reason, it is not strange to have such facts. This was how the people of Ishtarika were convinced.
"Yes, no, I'm looking forward to that too..."
At the end of the day, I seriously exchange my sword with the Bats. I think I can have that opportunity, but I'm not sure how I feel.
"It's not clear! What's going on, Ein? Is that for any reason?
What an answer. Ain't even lost that, but that's how attention got into the noisy bats.
"Well...... bats? Do you have an opinion, too? If there is, I'd like you to speak with your hands up."
"... I was up"
"Uhm. If you're conscious, fine."
Kyle's crane shouted, and Bats shut his mouth that way.
"... Bats, Your Highness will be on his way to Magna next time for an inspection. There are some of those circumstances, so can't you answer them instantly?
"Oh... I see. Then I guess I can't help it..."
He whispered and Leonard told Bats so.
It's not like Ein's concern, but I still appreciate Leonard's help.
—— Thank you, Leonard.
Thank you so much in my heart and thank Leonard.
But as Leonard says, Ain't definitely headed to Magna.
In nominal terms, inspection. That's what's been published, but the substance of it is the dispatch of a fact-finding mission on the Red Fox.
Compared to Isto and Balto, Magna is close to the king's capital and there are many people who come and go. As a result, Magna is less dangerous than previous investigations.
"It's the last big event a few days before graduation. I want you to be careful to stay healthy until then. So that's it, Leonard."
"Yes.... stand up, thank you"
How many more opportunities to get together in class like this?
Perhaps an opportunity to accommodate the fingers of one hand, but with that in mind, graduation becomes even more realistic.
"Speaking of which, is Magna a pretty big place..."
Two, a trip to Magna to remember.
The royal family means that Ain and Olivia will be here, and security will be tighter for that matter.
In other words, a lot of Kingsguard knights are mobilized, which actually makes it quite a big place.
I'm not going to play, but still, if you think of Olivia looking forward to going to Magna, Ain't naturally going to be looking forward to it too.
By the way, Katima (Katima) also went there. She did, but Katima (Katima) was rejected.
"--Your Highness! Your Highness! Are you all right, sir?
When I was thinking back about Olivia, I heard Leonard to that ein.
"... that? Leonard, what's wrong?
"Your Highness seemed so relieved that I was worried about what had happened..."
When I realized, all I had left in the classroom were Ain, Leonard, and the usual four guys, Bats and Loran.
"Ah, uh... Sorry, I was just thinking about Magna."
"I see, is that what happened... because it's your inspection. I think your schedule is jammed, but be careful with your body."
—— Anyway, lately, there seems to be a bit of an epidemic.
And, Leonard speaks, staring with worrying eyes at Ain.
"Yeah. Thanks, Leonard"
My body is getting stiff because I've been thinking for a while. As I was stretching my arms, the voice 'Ugh...' leaked out of my lungs.
"... sorry guys! I have to go now. I'll be late. See you tomorrow!
It was soothing air, but Loran suddenly left the classroom in a hurry.
"Oh, no, he's already a fine technician."
"Oh. But even you, when you graduate, will you be a knight?
"Ah? Well. But Leonard was the one who tried so hard at your dad's place."
Everyone's path is definitely different.
However, somehow all four of them were to work in the Wang capital. Instead, as far as Bats and Leonard are concerned, I will be working somewhere not so far from Ain.
"What's Ain gonna do?
What do you want me to do?
"What are you... that's it, Prince Wang, so what are we going to do?"
"Huh? That's Prince Wang for a while to come."
What are you talking about, I answered Bats with that look on my face.
"Nothing. I wonder if that will ever change. If I'm crowned, I won't be the King Prince, but until then, I'll always be the King Prince."
"That's right...... Does that mean royal work in a castle"
"Yeah. That's the thing"
"I think I may go in and out of the castle, so I was wondering if I might be able to see His Highness."
"... I don't know about me, I still feel like a castle knight is far away"
In order to serve in a castle, a knight must be chosen with a high score among the high multipliers.
For the Bats to serve in the castle, it started with those grades.
"Ah Mitsuru. One day, I'll join the Kingsguard and show you!
"It's a good idea. By the way, Bats, there's a lot of manners to be a Kingsguard knight, but you can learn it well, can't you?
"Ugh... wow, I know! He said he'd do something!
"And Bats. If you want to be a Kingsguard, you have an attitude towards Your Highness..."
Leonard's embarrassed, but he's right.
If you really want to be a Castle Knight or Kingsguard, there are many parts that need to be right.
"... please, forgive me while I'm at school"
Ain looked at Leonard with a frightened face and, like other HRs, started laughing out loud.
... After that, Ain also made a move back to the castle because they both had business to do.
As a matter of fact, it should be time to pick you up, so it's just as good as time.
Then, one after another, Ain went towards the school gate.
--It was a good time, even today.
My time at these schools is almost over. Though I felt lonely about that, I'm sure I will continue to see them. Ain't forgotten that hope.
"When I get back to the castle, I need to get my job done before I go to Magna..."
Long journey to Magna approaching tomorrow.
In fact, the burden is extraordinarily low compared to the time of the ist or the time of the balt.
That's not just because of the time it takes, but because magna is less of a threat like that, even in terms of danger and so on.
Because of that, there was not as much noise as last time when it came to discipline.
"Dear Ein! Welcome home."
It's not the usual Chris... who greets Ain when he arrives at the school gate. Rarely, Dill waited alone for Ain.
"Oh, that? That's unusual, Dill."
Chris draws attention, but Dill was similarly seen by passers-by.
These days, I hear that there have been more applications for friendships. Not so long ago, his appearance was impressive as he didn't fly.
"Actually, there was a situation where Chris could not come here..."
"Something busy or something?
Ask Dill what happened to Ain because this has never happened before.
"I seem to have fallen ill, and I am resting in the castle.... When we get to the castle, we plan to ask Lord Burra to explain it to us, so let's hear more from Lord Burra. Anyway, I don't know much about it either..."
I got a sorry look on my face, but Dill also suddenly asked me to pick Ain up, and I was so confused.
I don't mind picking Ain up. On the contrary, it's a thankful story, but I'm too hasty to know why I'm so detailed.
The only thing I could hear was Chris getting sick... that information only.
"Shall we hear it together, then? I'm worried, I'll be home soon."
Hearing Dill's words, Ain walked back to the castle earlier than usual.
"It's an epidemic disease these days. If you sleep for a week, you'll be better soon."
Arriving at the castle, Ain took Dill and headed under Barra.
Made near the training center, Burra's workplace. There goes not only the wounded knight, but also the sick and those who feel strange about their bodies.
"Speaking of which, Leonard said..."
It's just a matter of public discourse, but Leonard was talking about the epidemic. Remember that, Ain't surprised what happened close to you.
"Sometimes it's fashionable at these times. It's not a major illness, it's a cure if you eat and sleep."
Burra, wrapped up in a clean white coat and giving a grand explanation, grew to an unparalleled extent when she was an ist.
... Inside, I'm still nervous about Ain, but I try so hard not to see it.
"So Chris and Krone need to be at rest for a week or so..."
"Is that it? Wait, Krone too...?
The name Krone that Byra speaks of.
As for Ain, he thinks Chris was the only one on the sick floor, which suddenly puzzles me that Krone's name came up.
"Yes. Likewise, Master Krone is on holiday in the castle. It seems to have developed at about the same time, so we are both going to take the day off…"
"I'm sorry. Dear Ein, I didn't even hear about Lord Krone..."
Then there are a lot of problems.
Anyway, I'm heading to Magna tomorrow, but I can't accompany the two people I was planning to accompany... What's wrong?
"So Dill said it wasn't bad. But... what am I supposed to do with the dates starting tomorrow? Oh, yeah! My toxin breakdown..."
"If you stay at rest, it will heal, so I don't think you have to force it this time, even if it means boosting your immunity..."
Barra said.
I see, indeed, that word also makes sense.
It doesn't get any worse, so we eat and get some rest.
If that's all you need to do, maybe you should nod at what her medical professional says.
But Krone is an aide. And Chris is counted as an escort between Ain and Olivia.
In the meantime, if the two of you can't make it, there will be some problems.
"Excuse me!... That's Master Ain!? Welcome home!
May is the one who has been doing well. It is a very popular service for knights, with the alias of an angel in the cafeteria.
"Here, May! Such an attitude in front of His Highness...... No, right?"
"Well, well. I don't care, Barra. So, May? Can I help you?
"Ha! Something Martha said she was calling for Ein, so I came to call for Ein!
"Maybe you mean that epidemic? All right, where's Mr. Martha?
I just wanted an explanation, so May's appearance was at an excellent time.
"Er, erm... On the terrace in the courtyard, he said he was with the queen...!
"Your wife? I can't keep you waiting.... Thanks for letting me know, Barra. Can you send me to my office for more information on the medical condition later?
"I understand, sir! Then we will prepare it that way......"
By the advent of May, Burra was about to lose her earlier calmness.
Bahra also hurries back because Ain says he's going under Laralua.
"Thanks too May.... Dill, I'll be there."
"Ha!"
When I stroke May's head, I grin like a tickle.
Satisfied to see May like that, Ain thus left Burra's place of work.
Terrace in the courtyard headed early.
Many waterways made of many beautiful flowers, trees and even white stone in places preferred by Olivia and Laralua. It's a beautiful place to contrast.
"Grandma. I thought you were calling..."
To be precise, it was Martha who called Ain.
But don't let Martha come from you, she won't call Ain. If so, the Lord will surely be Laralua.
"Ah Ain. Welcome home, come on. Sit down? Let's get some tea together first, shall we?
Laralua, who finds Ain, smiles at Ain with a tender grin.
He still looks youthful and doesn't feel uncomfortable, even if he says he's in his 20s.
"Now, if you'll excuse me for the seat across the street"
Dill stands slightly apart and moves to the escort near Martha.
"Speaking of which, it's unusual for Ms. Martha to be by your wife"
"Did you tell Chris about Krone?
"Yep. Anything, I got an epidemic."
The reassuring thing is that it's not important.
Ein was relieved to hear that if he rested for just a few moments, he would heal.
"It is. So Berea took a rare break, and I asked Martha."
Berea is a woman who makes Martha's mentor and serves exclusively in Laralua.
He also serves as a payroll manager, but his main job is to take care of Laralua around him.
As a result, Ain't got much to show, but his arm as a service is first-class, even if it's Martha. He was the one who made me think so.
"Oh, that's unusual. Even though there seems to be no rest than Mr. Warren."
"Hey...... Well, but Berea's old, too. I don't admit it, but it makes you weak."
"... I see"
Swallow the tea prepared by Martha and moisten her throat.
--Yeah. It tastes good today.
"So, Ein, I wanted to talk to you about it."
Hands together, Laralua that looks like fun.
Even if you take one trick, it's full of elegance, making the beholder a trance.
"Yes. What is it about?
"Chris and Krone will be joining us about a week late. So you can take Martha with you. Martha would be able to work as an assistant, wouldn't she, Martha?
"Of course. So don't worry, Dear Ein."
Apparently, it's HR to fill an empty hole.
But as for Ain, thank you. Anyway, Martha can be relieved of her job as an assistant.
"Thank you for your concern."
"It's okay. That's about it. --… including that girl's guide."
He seemed to squeal something bossy, but the words didn't get to Ain.
"And, Ain't you. Why don't you two come and see me? Something dangerous, just in case."
"... right"
"So leave it in your letter. The two of you will still be happy, so if you write a letter, ask someone to give it to you. Okay?"
I haven't been given a detailed description of the disease, but I certainly should be prepared in case.
As Laralua says, Ain decides to prepare a letter later.
"Okay. I'll ask Barra to give it to me later."
"Well, that would be reassuring.... So, Ain't you gonna hang out with me for tea once in a while?
I feel like I've been busy lately and haven't had much time with Laralua.
It's time for this, we still have plenty of room, so Ein decided to enjoy his conversation with Laralua... and do so.
"You can't leave such a big role to anyone else."
"Oh, Ain, you've done fine, too. … Then His Royal Highness Prince Wang, we will be with you for a while."
Looking at Ain mouthing a dialogue like the one we have now, Laralua also feels Ain's growth.
The two of them then enjoyed the long hours leading up to the evening, just in a slow conversation.
