Middle-aged Adventurer Kein’s Good Deed

178. Queen Aristilia's Hospitality

From the harbour of Kane in the Kingdom of Kane, board a luxurious ship bound for the maritime kingdom of Albion.

And then Kane notices the small vessel she is tracking and asks Maya.

"You got a little ship coming with you."

"Ah, that's the Albion Navy's high-speed battleship. I'm inviting Mr. Kane as my guest of honor, so it's only natural that he should be escorted."

Princess Anna's defeat of Demon King Dusterd has suppressed monster activity around Eln's City.

However, as a reaction, the distant sea monsters were reactivating their activities, requiring escort warships.

"Well, thank you."

"Speaking of going out into the ocean, I don't think you need to worry about a short cruise."

The Mayan remarks were never flagged, and I saw Great Albio on the other shore.

"Sea Hiroi!

Nova widened her hand and ran around the deck with butterflies.

Behind it, the Holy Beast Tetra is running after him.

"Nova! It's dangerous to run too much!

Tetra's role as Nova's guardian came on board.

Kane laughs when she sees it.

"Nova can't help it. I've never been on such a luxurious cruise before."

Last time I went out to sea, it was a war, so I couldn't afford to enjoy the view slowly.

Everything looks unusual to Kane, who has barely come out of the city of Eln.

"Good to see you, Kane."

Such an artena is holding a white hat that is about to blow into the tidal wind as it leans over the bow of the ship.

A new white dress that looks great for a trip.

I can't believe I can travel with my childhood friend Artena like this...

Oh, yeah.

Kane holds Artena from her back and feels the tide together.

When you look at the scenery of a luxurious ship as it slips forward, it feels as if you two are flying in the sky.

Kane thinks it might be good to do this for a while, as Maya told me to make time with Altena because it's her honeymoon.

Close your eyes and enjoy a little air flight.

"Father!

Nova came running from behind and hugged Kane's back.

Ahahah, can Nova see the view too?

Kane picks up the hugged knob and shows the view from high up.

Plus, Altena is going to be a family of three.

Tetra, who was taking care of Nova, looked at her head unfortunately.

"Lord, I'm sorry. I got in the way."

For Tetra, you're so distracted.

Kane laughs bitterly at the possibility that Maya may be asking her to take care of Artena and Kane.

"No, don't worry too much about Tetra. Nova must be getting bored."

"Your boat is fun!

I'm really glad Kane came to see you laughing.

"Oh, I see. If it's such a peaceful cruise, I can pay you as much as you want."

While doing so, the luxurious ship carrying Kane and the others slipped into the bustling port of Albion, where many merchant and fishing vessels flock together.

At the pier of the harbor, Queen Aristilia Albion, who had already taken the Knights of the Albion Sea Kingdom, was waiting for the envoy.

Queen Aristilia, as noble as Princess Anna, is a swordsman with first-class arms, protected by Titis the Sea God, and is also the user of the third sword, the Black Knight Sword (Haliburn).

But today's queen was dressed not as a swordsman, but as a noble woman.

"Dear Kane, and the Embassy of the Kingdom of Kane, Welcome!"

Yes, when Queen Aristilia lowers her head deep in front of Kane, her eyes gather around her affluent chest.

Of course I'm conscious.

It is a dress that makes use of a woman's weapon and has a high level of skin exposure so as not to lose elegance.

Princess Anna stared at Jiro with a scary face and said, "I remember Aunt Pink..."

"... uh, my queen. Thank you for welcoming me."

Kane lowers her head in a hurry, knowing that she should greet her representative because Prime Minister Maya sticks to her blurry back.

"There's still time for the welcome banquet...."

"Your Majesty. Let's finish the deal first."

To Maya, who says so pleasantly, the young knight Lancelot, who is also the head of the Queen's Knight Guard and the head of the Navy minister, says so.

"How rude to the queen!

"Lancelot. Stop. Prime Minister Maya, if we're talking about a deal, we'd love to."

Queen Aristilia invites a group of Kane to her castle.

The battle between the two women who are the leaders of the nation begins.

"The Albion Maritime Kingdom is joining the Altena Alliance, so the deal is done without customs."

"Yes, of course."

The Albion Maritime Kingdom, torn by the earlier war, has virtually no right of veto on it.

"So today I brought something like this to sell a new product in my country."

On the desk is a set of white pots and cups.

It was a so-called tea set.

"Is this a white porcelain?

"Oh, white magnetic tea cups made in my country."

"Can you make white porcelain in the Kingdom of Kane?

Because there are dwarf artisans in the kingdom of Kane, the creation of glassware was already known to Queen Aristilia, but the story of white porcelain is new.

"Don't be surprised. and vessels that only burn the earth. Well, I think I have some idea of glaze."

The soil for the white porcelain is only far east.

For this reason, it has become a very valuable item in the Western region.

Recently, eastern ceramics have become a big boom around here.

If it were such a fine tea set, there would be a merchant who would buy a million or two million gold.

"We're going to sell this with a new brand. You'd better talk to the royal palace about this. So first of all, I would like to present this set to Her Majesty."

"How much do you plan to sell this in the Kingdom of Kane?"

Well, 100,000 gold at first.

"100,000 Gold!

It's not expensive.

Rather, white porcelain is cheaper than 100,000 gold.

It is one-tenth the price of the market.

I wonder if it would be cheaper if it was a single product rather than a set price.

This is a price that even middle-aged merchants and aristocrats can buy if they can't afford it.

Recently, even in the Albion Sea Kingdom, wealthy people have become accustomed to drinking tea imported from the Lower Benelsk Kingdom.

This teacup will probably sell to fly.

"If it's sold at such a price, our wealth..."

Located to the north of the continent, this albion maritime kingdom is cold and poor.

This Great Albio island has a land pattern where more and more clouds sit throughout the year and where wheat does not grow much because of the cold rains.

In this island country, where many people eat with barley and rye, what is abundant is what happens when wealth flows out of the island country as much as wool and flax.

The blue-faced queen, Aristilia, stood still.

"Hey, Maya."

Kane, who seems to have seen Queen Aristilia, is consulting with Maya about something.

They talked to Kosovars in the back and said, "Mr. Kane, you're as popular as ever! I can hear Maya's voice.

Queen Aristilia is determined.

Yes, the key to negotiation is King Kane.

Prime Minister Maya couldn't find a way in.

But if that gentle and plain king...

"Lancelot"

The Queen summons her faithful knights and begins to keep quiet.

"Oh no, my queen...."

"Isn't this a good opportunity? Just do it."

Including Lancelot's angry expression, Kane and the others ended their conversation.

Maya says the most.

"Well, this is the end of the deal. I will speak to the Sakai City Chamber of Commerce to avoid any unilateral loss to the Albion Maritime Kingdom, so don't worry about the Queen."

I hope so.

The talks between the kingdoms ended, tea was quickly brewed with a tea set that was made as a souvenir, and the queen made the sweets herself.

As the venue eased, Knight Lancelot cut out the story "By the way..."

"Actually, I had a little trouble."

According to Knight Lancelot, a legendary red dragon has recently appeared in the hills of the Wall, north of the capital city of Albion, and is wreaking havoc on the people.

A legendary red dragon. That's how it came back to life. "

Maya also heard of the legacy of the Red Dragon of Albion.

I don't think it's strange that the legendary Red Dragon is resurrecting and doing bad things around here because the flow of magic elements is not stable.

Knight Lancelot said with momentum.

"Please join me in defeating the dragon with the help of your famous" Rose Maiden in Heights "!

Besides, Maya questions.

"But your Majesty the Queen is the owner of the Sword. Can you handle one red dragon?"

"How can the Queen leave the country....."

Maya told me that, and Knight Lancelot looks a little embarrassed.

And Queen Aristilia just said.

"My sword, the Blackwind Knight Sword (Halliburn), is weak unless it is on the sea. So anyway, if it's a sea dragon, the red dragon is a bit...."

I see, it doesn't go well with me.

The line of the story is clear.

It seems that Maya's suspicions about the smell of plotting are off the hook.

"That's good, Maya. I don't know how strong it is, but I'm going to take down one of the dragons."

She hasn't been out in a while and seems to be bored. Anna was pleased as soon as the dragon was defeated.

"... I don't want to. You can even make a loan to the Albion Sea Kingdom."

Someone pulls the sleeves of Mayan clothes quick.

"... Maya"

"It's okay, Sephilia. Nobody forgets. I won't forget it."

It is a cephalia that is often forgotten because it has not appeared recently and has a small number of mouths.

Otherwise everyone will forget.

Oh, pitiful and cute, Maya thins her eyes.

Maya, who loved and cheered up the cute Cephalia, said softly!

"With Princess Anna, with us, with Sephilia, do you want to defeat the dragon or the wax? Oh, yeah, and then Tetra came along."

"Me too? If you can do it with a dragon, your arms will ring."

"Tetra is a beautiful girl."

In a different sense, Tetra is also a Maya who expects to be a force for war.

It is also Mayan pleasure to fight at the beautiful girls' party.

I'm breaking up like this, and I'm about to throw it into the party.

After the conversation was settled, the three of the "Rose Girls in Heights" and Tetra headed to Wall Hill under the guidance of Knight Lancelot.

"Um, we..."

"Take it easy in the castle, Kane and the others. Even Princess Anna is as easy as a red dragon, but we'll take it from here."

Queen Aristilia also said.

"That's right. We have prepared a banquet whispering, and Kane is a valued guest of our country, so please make sure to entertain us."

Well then, let's do that.

Even if Kane comes with the dragon defeat, it will only be tight, so Kane is also in the area.

Well then, cum...

"Are you okay?

Queen Aristilia stepped on the hem of a deliberately long dress skirt and squeezed her rich chest against Kane.

"What's the matter, Princess Anna? Here we go."

"Oh, nothing."

Princess Ana was relieved by the vague movements of Queen Aristilia, but with Artena and her daughter Nova, who were Kane's daughter-in-law and goddess, she went to defeat the dragon.

The queen, Aristilia, who waved her hand at it, smiled nicely and went into a meticulous makeup repair.
