We still have time for dinner.
I'm going to use this time to greet Her Royal Highness on her arrival.
"... but I wonder if it's against the rules to go directly. I'm not sure."
I am a dragon man, but my status here is that of a member of the House of Raptors.
He's the one I found out about, but still the princess is the princess. There must be no coarse phase (yes).
That's why I decided to give it a heads-up before heading there.
When I asked the servant of the museum, he went and came back in about thirty minutes.
Her Royal Highness will see you.
"You've been so great."
I went out of my way to touch you, and you told me that!
"I thought it would be more rude to go see him in person, but wasn't it?
"No, you're not. That's the right answer.... but you could have come out of the shadows like this"
That's not good. Completely an assassin.
No, I'm an assassin.
"Her Royal Highness has given me permission, so I will do so next time"
When I laughed nicely, Her Royal Highness laughed, "I'll forgive you," she said.
He still just made fun of me.
"But by now you're here, you're going to look at it from the competition?
"Yeah, I am, though.... are you not?
During this period, there were various announcements, and I thought many merchants and tourists would come for it.
"Even though the ceremony before the event is more luxurious. It's a pivotal competition, but I got the material. Except for what you're looking for, it's not much fun, is it? Research presentations are very pungent. There's not much we need to see."
It will take nearly a month for the announcement to take place in many venues, but they don't have much to catch the princess's attention. It's just boring to go see things you're not interested in.
No, well.
"Could you possibly walk on your own?
When I said so, Her Royal Highness nodded heavily.
"They added more escorts because the situation is unstable.... utterly abominable."
Looks like more escorts. I can't be evil because I am a being that protects me.
It felt like the depression was accumulating.
"I'm here as a guest of the country, so I can't hear you."
"I know. The talks are almost over, and most of my responsibilities have been fulfilled. Next up is the family of the rabbit."
"Are you coming this way?
"No, I'm not. It's not the building you're looking after. Home office. There's still a little talk about the clan chief and the stuffing."
Apparently, he's going back to Rabbit's clan territory again during the competition.
Speaking of which, have you been gone since my engagement announcement?
"That's a lot of trouble"
"If you think so, lend me your sharazard. 'Cause I'm gonna take a little walk."
"If you can't."
I don't know what to say. As always, Her Royal Highness is free to think.
Most of all, that's all I can say about stress.
Huh, I asked because I was curious about what Her Royal Highness had shown interest in.
"Whatever the best part is, it's a 'moving hallway'. They made it possible with mechanical technology, not magic. I haven't put it into practical use yet, but don't you think it would be a long hallway in the castle if I installed it?
"You're going to lack exercise."
"Being a man with no dreams. I wonder if there are any other moving stairs."
"That's all that moves"
Or just something that looks like it could be sidelined.
"The lift was demonstrated at the previous competition. I heard that the merchant country bought the technology and that there are several installations in the western capital. I've never seen it before."
"Oh, what kind of guy?
"Rumor has it the box is going around. You can ride it upstairs or up to the third floor or something.... So, this time, moving hallways and stairs. So that's all I want to see."
"Oh, good luck"
It's a technology that I don't seem to need.
It might be convenient, but you just have to walk down the hall.
You don't have to introduce stupid high technology.
By the way, everything Her Royal Highness has just said falls into the category of 'Demonstration'.
It's the same, so there's an 'exhibit', but this one seems to include something that's not a finished product.
And "Paper Presentations", "Lectures" and "Research Presentations", which I described earlier as Chimpy, are also flourishing in multiple venues.
Lectures are divided into cultural lectures, technical lectures, magic lectures, etc., depending on the content.
There are other things that have evolved past technology, and others that have been put into practical use for 'impromptu meetings'.
There are also places where these technologies, products, and possible items are bought and sold.
I hear a lot of merchants are doing business there.
For the general public, souvenirs made just here are sold, and there are also image presentations such as studies that are not yet in sight.
Especially in The Presentation, which anticipates what may be practical decades or centuries away, he said there are many things out there that seem absurd.
They can easily announce it because they don't actually have any responsibility to make it.
Driven infantry, which is several times stronger than dragons and can travel several times faster, or whatever a child dreams of, is announced in great seriousness.
There are quite a few dreams, and if you ignore the feasibility, you know how diverse and big people's ideas are.
"So I'm going to go to the Raven family in ten days."
"Okay. I think I'm a little more over here than that. After that, we'll go back to the capital."
And hunting the Moon Warcraft on the path of the Shadow Moon is trivial.
Call me if you need anything.
"Yes, thank you. It's time for the sun to go down, so I'll be back."
"This time it was the family side of the rabbit."
"Yes. Now excuse me"
When I came back, Anne was expecting me.
My parents are back. I mean, face-to-face.
"Bye, Leon. Come here."
"... Yes"
Just a little bit, my stomach's starting to ache.
