When we return to the king's capital of Elves, we are greeted by cheer.

Elves were not prepared with bouquets or crowns because they loved plants, but it is nevertheless comfortable to be admired by the stunning elves.

Besides, the Queen herself, welcoming us to the edge of the king's capital and praising our medals, was a surprise.

... I don't know if it's the queen of a country that hugs people in the first place.

I wouldn't have seen that happening, but Anemone, the Elf warrior chief, made it the Queen's twin sister, said with a modest cough.

"Sister, you have eyes too."

Ferlett, queen of elves, turns to her real sister,

"Isn't that nice? Anemone could have enjoyed the bravery of Lord Ike on the battlefield, right? Let me have my monopoly in the king's capital."

And he hugs me all over again.

She is an unusual queen.

I don't feel bad, but I'm starting to get scared of Lilith's tight gaze and Sati's sneering smile, so I ask you to stay away, and it wasn't all over yet.

Heading to Elf's Palace, I explained the situation to the Queen.

Ferlett summarises what I said.

"So you succeeded in capturing the enemy mage, but the enemy army is still alive?

"Exactly."

When I answer that, Ferlett goes on.

"So the war isn't over yet, is it?"

She sighs. Looks like he's a bad fighter after all.

"Can't we manage to bring it to peace with the results of earlier wars?

Ferlett asks the boss, but he can't.

"Even if you don't have the will to fight this way, there will be enough over there. It was taken by a handful of soldiers and the Sorcerer of the Tiger Son was also taken prisoner. On the contrary, they should attack you furiously."

"Can't you drive me back with something like guerrilla senjutsu this time?

"That won't be possible. I'll teach you a lesson about your last failure, and now you'll bring the soldiers together."

"Well, then, it's a frontal collision."

"Yeah, I was wondering if petty work would work anymore"

However, I would add.

"The enemy should be feeling threatened here in an earlier battle. That march will be slow. More than last time."

"In other words?"

Ferlett asks in a streamlined voice.

"As I said the other day, my troops from the Demon King's Army are on their way here now. If you keep up the good work, you can also pinch enemy forces."

"Kyogeki?"

Ferlett shall be Kyoton. Apparently, this queen is less than amateur when it comes to the military.

An unseen anemone explains to her sister.

"I mean, you can pinch the enemy, sister."

Ferlett hears the word and leaks "I see," but maybe this girl doesn't understand.

"Kyogeki? Is that delicious?" He has a targeted face.

I was frightened when I saw that face, but instead Anemone apologizes as she whispers.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ike. My sister is quite good when it comes to internal affairs, but she doesn't know anything about the military. Haven't you even held the bow?"

I'll whisper it back, too.

"No, it's more helpful than being able to put a cross spear in a poorly knowledgeable human being. And you can make up for your weaknesses with your sisters. Home affairs is sister, military is sister, balanced"

"I'm afraid," Anemone said, drooling her head.

Apparently, you've come to trust me completely in the other fight.

Now it's more helpful to hear me say than Lilith.

Was that how you were thinking, or do you not care that me and my elf daughter are hiding and snuggling around, Lilith is coming this way even though she hasn't even been called?

"What are you two talking about here?

She's still a jealous daughter, but she doesn't seem to be evil.

"You just got back from the battlefield, and you're still talking about the war? If you're so stuffed with roots, you'll fall."

I'm not tired because I'm immortal.

And I was about to say, but Lilith was right.

The Elf Queen and Satti prepare dishes to feed the English of the Elf warriors returning from the battlefield.

You think the Queen herself, she stood in the kitchen and waved that arm?

That is gratifying.

The queen of one country can do nothing but survive. Let's be honest here and join that feast.

I thought so. After Lilith, I tried to get her to show me where the feast was, but Anemone called me softly.

"I was wondering if I should get my hands on my sister's cooking."

Says it's not very edible.

They don't like war, poor diplomacy, nature, she has all sorts of weaknesses, but among them, poor cooking deserves a special mention.

"... certainly a woman with many faults"

I thought so, but I still have to mouth the dish she offered me.

It was both a diplomatic courtesy and a courtesy as a person.

With that in mind, I headed to the feast place.
