Episode 406: Towers and Colleges, The Purpose of the Journey

"What was then...?

Tilt your neck and I'll ask, Her Royal Highness answers.

"About the other day... when you helped me."

I see, surely I can only say then.

And it was precisely then that we did not ask Her Royal Highness what your line was all about.

Especially because the three of us didn't show each other, but we feared hearing it would make us snakes.

It's a small citizen's idea to try not to bring in any trouble possible.

... even if you're not a small citizen, do you usually do that?

"I mean, that was the way home from Ancient Sacred Tree Country, okay?

When Lorraine asked Her Royal Highness, she nodded and replied.

"Exactly. But the Kingsguard knights, starting with Knaus, were exhausted when they were attacked more than once on the road and reached that neighborhood... so that's the situation."

At the time, I recall the Knaus were so worn out that I didn't think they were royal Kingsguard knights, I wonder why.

After all, I was convinced that you meant the result of repeated acts of combat.

But that means yes......

"... you mean attacked by the elves of Ancient Sacred Tree Country? Sounds like a big problem..."

Speaking of why I thought that, I guess it was because Niv had a story in his head about going to get branches and being targeted all over.

But the princess shook her head beside this.

"No way...... the elves are certainly a race with an exclusive place, but they are basically very serene in nature. Of course, if anything, I wouldn't hesitate to fight, but I don't have the same barbarity to suddenly attack a human being who hits a royal family in another country."

... Well, I guess so.

If we do that, if we do it badly... no, we don't have to do it badly, because it's a war between nations.

No matter how many peripheral rural states Yaran is, there are never many troops that can be mobilized.

No matter how many elves you say, you won't be the kind of person you want to fight pointlessly.

"But then why..."

"If you're the one who did the raid, honestly, I'm not sure, that's the exact point. Because it was a demon, a bandit, a mercenary... just"

and His Royal Highness the Princess tried to keep ahead, Naus breaks in.

"About you, from me."

"... naus. Please."

Her Royal Highness did not say disrespect for this, but honestly gave way to the place.

Naus tells me he wonders what the hell is going on.

"It's not very certain, so if Your Highness says so, it will be a problem...... I just want you to talk about this here."

It looked pretty cautious, but when we made sure we nodded, Naus continued.

Trust us, not that you're going to take responsibility if anything happens.

I don't know how to take it... but it feels like we're going to jail for now.

... absolutely, let's just talk about this here.

"Probably, but I'm guessing it was your brother, one of your sisters, or both who led the raid the other day."

... I see.

I'm convinced that's not an easy story to talk about.

His Royal Highness's brother and sister, when I say first prince and first princess, I mean.

First Prince, Joachim Prinzeps Yaran and First Princess Nadia Regina Yaran.

Princess Zia and I are brothers and sisters who have divided their blood… but they are the ones who may be enemies if the King therefore falls apart.

This is starting to stink of blood again...

"... why is that?

Lorraine asked.

Yes, assuming that Princess Zia was attacked at the expense of either or both of them, what the hell is it for?

In brief, if the current king collapses, we may wish to eliminate even one person who could succeed him, but Princess Zia's right to inherit the throne is not very high.

Simply think, you should be next to the first prince, the first princess, at best.

Thinking about it in detail, I guess there's a lot going on with my brother Wang and his involvement, but I don't know that much about it while I'm in my own country...

Anyway, I don't even seem to bother to kill him at this stage, I suppose.

Naus answers our questions like that.

"That is because this visit to the Ancient Sacred Tree Country had the potential for Her Royal Highness Princess Zia to be named heir to the throne. Before that happens, let's pick the sprouts early, I guess that meant..."

If there are circumstances to say so, I can certainly be convinced as to why the first prince, the princess, went into action.

But here again, why is there?

How can Her Royal Highness Princess Zia be heir to the throne by this visit?

On this, Her Royal Highness opened her own mouth.

"We talked earlier about the Wang Wand, which is nearing its limit due to years of torture. But this is what His Majesty the King continues to use. But of course, that situation is not a good thing. Exactly what we need to do. Simply think about it, there were two ways. One is to repair the King's Wand. That might still make it possible to use it, right? But every day, His Majesty will use the Wang Wand... so you can't take it out of the Wang Capital for a few weeks. Because the only way to fix it is to ask a high elf..."

It is a product that has considerable effect.

It is not difficult to imagine that a special technology is needed, and we will therefore have to ask the producer.

But when you bring out the scepter, in the end, the Yaran may be overflowing with immortals because it cannot be used.

It may feel like a country is coming for me to have fun singing and spending some time... but from a normal human being, that's out.

Malt doesn't feel like Laura or Isaac are going to do something about it, but the rest of the land won't be able to.

I am therefore saying that it is an option that cannot be picked.

The princess continues.

"So we have come to the conclusion that there is no other option… to adopt the choice of asking the High Elves to make a new King's Wand. The Wang Wand was created by the High Elves. If we could create a new king's wand, it would be nothing but the country's high elves. So I decided to go to Ancient Sacred Tree Country."
