Stranger’s Handbook

36 The Emperor's decision

"Ki, court magician...... are you in the lead?

Shit... I asked His Majesty back.

"Excuse me."

I'll head down in a hurry.

You can't question His Majesty's decision, if you're bad, you're fired.

I'm not firing you to quit your job... it means you're physically just going to be neck

"Good, you didn't hear me very well, did you? You will lead the court."

Looks like you saved me this time... dangerous.

Thank you, Your Majesty. Happy.

"Oh, don't get so hard because it's not between glances. If I lead the way, I'll treat you like a marquis, give me a little more."

Laughing wildly, Your Grace.

Well then... let's get a sense of distance as we see how it goes

"Thank you, I will do that."

"Hmm, still tough, but will you get used to it sometime? That's it for now, banquet from night on? Can't you take your time? Don't get caught with nobles, all right? Ha ha."

I greet His Majesty as he leaves with a lavish laugh

Head of the court magician... you're running up too far at once... you mean watch out for the other nobles and the intake.

"Well, that's the thing. I haven't made an official announcement yet, but I'll announce it when the banquet is over in three days. Understand."

The Chancellor will leave with all due respect.

All of a sudden something happened to the national class, I guess not at the level of being busy...

My master and I, we thought we'd go home to the mansion, but my maid tells me to stay in the castle.

I asked the mansion to leave a message and decided to rest in the prepared room.

I was worried the nobles would come while I waited in my room, but I was fine.

There's suddenly been a national event, so it's not like that.

Thanks to you, I can get some rest.

"But master. When I become a court magician, do I need to pack it in the Imperial City?

"It's okay, normally, but the Borderline House is an exception and an exemption. It's hard not to be on the front line, because the court magician will take turns and pack it in the Fort of the Borderlands."

"If I do that, I'll be in Borderline Bo Territory instead of packing it in a fort… is it as good as it's ever been?

"Well, that fits."

Well, that's not a problem.

It's just a change of title.

(Master, tea for me too)

"Oh, 'cause it's hot. You gotta be careful, okay?

Spirit starting to drink Chimatima in a small cup

I decided to call him the Spirit.

I've never seen any other spirits, and if it's an exchange diary, it's confusing.

"Hehe, but you really look like Beat. I miss you."

"When you were little? Let me ask you something, Master."

Nico laughed, his master sits back in his chair.

"I don't know where to start. When I was born, I was worried about how small it was and how fragile it was. Thanks to my nanny, I grew up with a skull. It was 2 years and 5 months old..."

He stepped on a mine... while appropriately matching us, listening extensively...

"... so..."

... Master, do you still have it?

You're just getting gennared.

So the door is knocked at a time when it can be called God.

"Get in."

"Excuse me, sir."

Thanks...... thank you maid thank you so much

Master, don't look sorry

I'm so hungry.

"I'll show you when you're ready."

I was led to a room in the castle.

Meet him at dinner in a dining room filled with fancy condiments.

The first day is a feast just for the royal family, the second day is a feast open to anyone of nobility, and the third day is an outdoor party at the squad yard.

They're going with that flow.

I just asked my maid, I wanted to know sooner.

Apparently, the only participants today are His Majesty and the Empress.

The Crown Princess is here, but all of a sudden, she doesn't want me to join her.

I don't know if it's considerate of us or alarming, but it helps.

I'm nervous, so if it's a small number, you're welcome.

Your majesty was expecting us before we did.

It's only natural that His Majesty should be there first.

"Thank you for inviting us today"

My master says hello and I bow my head with him

"No hard feelings, sit down."

I'm urged to sit in the chair, but the Empress will see me.

In your late 20s or something? She's a kind looking beauty with blonde eyes.

Alongside His Majesty, it's a painting, a union of handsome men and beauties and all that irregularity.

"It's the Empress Natasha. Natasha, do you know Sonia? He's the son-in-law and courtroom magician, the next Zest."

Smile fuzzily and open your mouth

"It's Natasha, Sir Sonia. Long time no see. Sir Zest, nice to meet you. You're the Spirit, aren't you?

(Sir, are you bowing?)

"It's been a long time, Your Majesty. Empress Natasha, I'm so out of time."

"Nice to meet you, Empress Natasha, I'm Zest. Now bow down."

Honestly lowering your head Spirit

Yeah, that's pretty cute.

You're acting cute. You're adorable.

"Hehe, it's a small dinner party, I don't mind Natasha. Pretty spirits. Do you think you can eat?

(Master, I want to eat)

"You want to eat, I get it. Dear Natasha, please."

For some reason, a small dish will be prepared next to Master Natasha.

"Come on, Spirit, we're ready. Enjoy."

Dear Natasha, seeing Nico and the Spirit,

Spirit looking at this one in chills

When I snort, he smiles and starts eating.

"Sort of, really cute wow"

Yeah, Master Natasha's got a crush on the Spirit.

Let's just keep it that way for a while.

"Well, the Spirit Hall seems to be enjoying it too, shall we start this one?"

This is how the dinner party started.

Let's be honest.

Very tired

I care about the speed of eating, and if I make a noise, it's bad.

I didn't know what the food tasted like...

You don't have a choice. You're Japanese.

I've only used knives and forks in families.

Along the way His Majesty also seemed hammered by the Spirit and was fortunate to have missed attention

Still tired... I'd love to grab some gutty meat...

At the end of the dinner party, we move to the next talking room, where we have a cup of tea and the conversation begins.

You're a pain in the ass.

I can't talk to him during dinner, he's gonna change his room on purpose and then talk to him and he's gonna be okay.

I want to forget about the conversation in the bickering room.

"So, what is the Spirit Hall based on?

"……… it's an exchange diary"

Pup.

Master Natasha, did you blow it?

"Ko, exchange diary..."

Your Majesty, you're not enjoying this, are you?

"Beat and I do it every day, Zest."

Master, please shut up

After all, they made fun of me with the little lady.

There's going to be a fire coming out of your face.

It's only late at night that we're back in the prepared room.

We even had a bed for spirits.

The maids of the castle, you mean it.

When you go into a soft bed, drowsiness strikes you.

I'd like to go home soon.

Oh, when shall I go buy a souvenir...

Think tomorrow... good night...

"Sir Zest! I want you to compete with me!! Lord Zest ~!!"

I woke up in the morning sucked... who... from the morning...
