Strongest Onmyouji's Isekai Adventure ~ The Monsters are too weak compared to my Youkai Servant's~

Efa turned her bewildered gaze at me, as she did not know what she had been told.

But I don't know what to say either.

The prince goes on to say.

"Contemporary King Astilia is his mother, Her Majesty the Queen, and the now rear palace (Halem) is nominally open for me, who ranks first in inheritance. Enough to be educated in such a fine school. Efa, you must be a wise and noble woman. For me and my country, I'd love for you to come to the rear house."

Efa, too, seems to have finally figured out the situation by then.

Relax small, but say with a firm voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry... I'm a slave to you, Seika... I can't do that..."

"Oh my... wasn't that the student from this school"

"Yes, no, I'm a student..."

"Mm, well. So you're still a talented lady. That would be fine. Sir Seika, let's buy her in words. Is the payment a large gold coin in our country okay?

I barely open my mouth when I'm stunned.

"Oh, you know..."

"Young"

A subracial woman says that in a cold voice.

Then the prince looked badly as soon as possible.

"I know, Lise. Excuse me, Sir Seika. This is not the kind of thing I wanted to see this time. Shall we get down to business?"

"... then let's move the place, Your Highness. Here we draw our attention to darkness. Let's rent a room in the school, come here."

Walking out, I think.

Is this guy okay?

****

The Prince's arrival in the Garden was known in advance by the school director, so he was able to rent a reception room for his greatness smoothly.

In one of those rooms, we'll be across the street.

……

For some reason, next to me, Efa sat nervously.

I don't know why, Prince, because I was just hoping... well for now I'm fine.

I relax and open my mouth. [M]

"So first, can you tell me from the situation in the old King's Capital?

"Um, it would be from there, Sir Seika"

"Before that, Your Highness, there is no need for a Sir's salute to me. I didn't inherit the title from my father, and I don't plan to."

"Mm, was it... I'll call you Lord Seika. It seems to be close to the year, and it's safe for me."

The prince said so with a smile.

You have the most elegance in words and deeds.

"Now it's the old king's capital, but do you know exactly which city it is?

"Yeah, it's Protoasta, a city about half a day west of Asta, the king's capital."

The Old King's Capital is a city of that name, to be exact.

The meaning seems to be 'the former capital of King Astilia' or something like that.

The prince nods and starts talking.

"The momentum has only weakened from the transitional capital that existed about a hundred years ago, but Protoasta is still a big city in our country. Since transitional capital, it has become customary for the next generation of persons to succeed to the throne to be chiefs. That's why I went to Imperial City this time, and I met him here."

This was unexpected.

I thought it was just a messenger, but I didn't know the prince himself was the head of the old king's capital.

It's a custom I've never heard of in my previous life, but it may make sense in the sense of having bureaucratic work go through beforehand.

The prince continues.

"And the dragon of Astilia has lived with the people in that land for more than a hundred years before the transition. Take the mountain that stands right next to the city as a residence."

"That's amazing"

I was honestly surprised.

I don't even know in previous life, such as the example of a mighty species of chemistry living with men for more than two hundred years. Apart from being like a patron god, it is usually difficult to coexist in places like human beings.

The prince nods mysteriously.

"Uhm. Once, with my ancestors, I fought back against the enemy forces approaching the king's capital... But I think Lord Seika has heard from Sir Blaise that the dragon has been strange for the past year or so."

"It's been about the last year, hasn't it? But they started attacking livestock and people."

"Hmmm......"

The prince nods heavily.

"The damage is not so serious. To the extent that a few stray sheep were targeted while grazing, even when they said they were going to attack livestock. People, too, were just attacked outside the city, inadvertently entering a mountain inhabited by a dragon. I was injured, but I wasn't eaten just stepping off a cliff on my way out. It's just... I'm pretty sure things aren't right. This has never happened before, and is clearly becoming more vigilant. It's especially bad these days, and it's the end of intimidating people in the city who run into each other outside the walls."

"Does the dragon distinguish between people in the city and other people?"

"Um. Do you remember the faces you see over and over again? Although it is only within the walls that they do not descend, they used to descend near pastures and fields that spread around the city, and sometimes they were confused. Don't worry if there are people nearby. However, there are many pedestrians and travellers coming from other cities who say they were caught staring or chased from the sky."

"I see..."

You're on guard for anyone coming from outside the territory?

I'm just not sure I'm embracing that inner human being either.

"In the first place, why aren't Astilian dragons attacking people? As far as the literature goes, I don't think the dragon is a living monster with people."

"I don't know exactly. Anyway, it's been that way for a long time."

says the prince.

"However, there is an inheritance… that the dragon was once hatched from an egg by the Queen of Astilia"

"A dragon hatched by a person…"

"It's just a legacy. I hear dragon eggs rarely go to market, but I've never heard of examples of people hatching"

……

Snakes, turtles and lizard eggs usually hatch without doing anything.

I thought the dragons were similar, but they're not?

"I said the damage wasn't serious, but it wasn't that optimistic."

The prince puts it severely.

"Livestock is hindering grazing because of fright, and pedestrians are at the end of refraining from doing big business. Anxiety is also spreading among the people. And even more… there is imperial vigilance"

The prince's gaze is pointed straight at me.

"I want Lord Seika to see this case through."

The prince said with a serious look.

The superficial position is higher over there, but the actual position is higher over me. Depending on my report, the situation in Astilia will be better or worse.

From what I can tell, Astilia still has some way to solve the dragon problem.

I smile back. [M]

"Whatever, Your Highness. My father ordered me to investigate, discuss and report on this academic matter."

The prince softened his expression all the time when he mouthed Pre-Construction, who understood each other with the meaning that we would look at him neutrally.

"Helpful, but I'm also interested in academic reflection. I don't know, Lord Seika. Is there anything at the moment that you think happened?

"Right......"

I think.

Although I have some concerns, I can't say anything about too little information right now.

"No… to try to stay on the ground and not get a detailed record"

"Right. So what about Efa"

And so I turned my attention to Efa, where the prince kept his mouth shut all the time.

Efa raises an obviously upset voice.

"Uh, uh, is it me?

"Hmm. Any thoughts?"

"I... Seika, if you don't understand, nothing..."

The prince smiles and tells.

"I'm asking for it. You don't have to worry about your husband. I'd like to hear your opinion."

"Yep... hmmm..."

Efa often worries, then opens her mouth.

"Um, I guess I'm not sure...... in the past, haven't you had the same thing?

"Hmm."

The prince thinks with his hands on his chin.

"Never heard of it, but it might be worth reviewing the record. Thank you, Efa. From now on, I want to rely on your knowledge."

"Ha ha..."

"That's right. How about dinner tonight? Lord Seika, if we can talk carefully..."

"Young"

Standing by, a subracial woman said pizza.

"We will fail the escort plan. Weight yourself."

The prince looks bitter.

Looks like a squire or an escort, but seems to be in a strong position.

Cucumber eyes in platinum hair as thin as silk thread. Long, pointed long ears.

Probably an elf.

A species excelled in bows and magic. I also nod to feel a strong stream of power.

I'm just curious... since I met you in the dining room, you've been turned on with a strong vigilance.

I don't feel the same way about escorts.

Either that or it's close to what was well directed in the previous life.

Eyes containing awe.

I wonder what it is. Can you see my power?

But I just met him. What is it?

"I know, Lise"

The prince answers the elf with a bitter face.

"I'm sorry, Lord Seika. My escort is very worried."

"... no, never mind"

"Then it's time for you to excuse me. See you when you leave."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The Prince and Elf escort are leaving the room.

When the signs disappeared from the front of the room, I exhaled and lowered my back to the reception chair again, leaving my body behind.

This kind of thing is tiring.

It reminded me of the time when I was an official who was a snare to a great nobleman.

You were so sick of that. One of the reasons I jumped out of the Yin and Yang dormitory halfway missing.

Efa asks anxiously as she stands.

"Hey, Seika, I didn't do anything disrespectful or anything, did I? You're all right...?

"Huh? Oh. It's okay. I think he said something pretty good."

Similar examples from the past should rather be looked for first. From there, things can happen in the future, and solutions can often lead.

I'm suspicious you were doing it like that prince.

Reminds me of my earlier interaction... I'm getting kind of frustrated.

That prince...... you okay?

You didn't think leaving your husband and asking your squire for their opinion would be a little disrespectful?

Or do you want me to buy a quote inviting someone else's slave to the back house, or do it now anyway if it's normal?

What kind of nerves do you think I should take a woman's squire and dictate to her in the first place?

No, man, the word comes to mind irresistibly.

"Uh, Efa... about this one, but you don't have to force me to follow you"

"Uh, why? I didn't push it. I'll follow Seika-kun, he's a squire."

"Oh, yeah..."

That's all I give back to Efa.

Well... okay.

He seemed to understand his situation, too, and was sophisticated in his language and his work.

It wouldn't mean bottomless incompetence either.

Royalty, so to speak, belongs to a nation. It's also the number one prince in inheritance.

I have status and money. I'm not a bad person for being liked.

I'm sure the latter palace will do well. It would be a perfect place to put it.

Watch Efa with me.

Beautiful, I think. It seems to be popular with schoolboys, and it is not impossible to be seen by princes from other countries.

This kid is also fifteen this year. It's an adult year in this world.

It's time to decide what to do with yourself.

It's a shame to leave at hand... but it's not a bad idea to be able to make handouts to other countries.

If Efa wants,

Perhaps Astilia can give me a wife.

****

On his way back to the men's dorm, he was drawn to the bush by strong force.

"Be quiet."

"I'll have you throw up all washed up."

……

He holds his mouth down and looks up at Mabel and Amu as he leans back.

I thought you'd be here, but I didn't think you'd do this.

"What have you been talking to that prince about?

"... What do you mean, the situation in the old king's capital or the dragon? I told you at noon."

Wait for Mabel to get her hands off me. Amu frowned when I answered.

"I don't care about that. What I want to ask you is about Efa. I didn't even bother to take her."

"Uh..."

"What... are you willing to sell about Efa!?

"No, no. I really only talked about dragons. So there's nothing we can talk about."

"Really?"

"It's true. Well, Your Highness seemed to like Efa a lot."

The two girls looked at each other.

Then Mabel asks.

"... really, don't you want to sell Efa?

"I won't. Don't you trust me that much?

"I'm not, though."

"Well, it's just..."

I say.

"If Efa wants it, I'm going to let you go. If it's Astilia, you don't even need a guardian."

"If it's Astilia, then... that means Efa's going into the backyard?

"If he says he will accept His Highness's invitation."

"What are you talking about? That's not what she said."

"What are you guys talking about?

It has a slightly blameworthy tone.

"Efa is an adult this year. There is no chance of being heard by royalty in another country. It's time to decide your future. We shouldn't be interrupting."

The two girls I heard had a subtle look on their face.

Mabel says terribly.

"I know what Seika says, but... don't tell Efa about it. Probably because I'm sad."

"Why are you grieving? If you don't say so, you'll have to choose."

"Please."

"... ok. Unless he said so himself."

"Yeah, that's okay"

Pushing Amu's back still saying something, Mabel left.

Well, I'm sure we were both worried about Efa.

No, I do feel sorry for a manly prince to force me into the back palace.

Don't worry, both of you.

I respect Efa's will. [M]

Both Amu and Mabel have the ability to live on their own. So will Efa.

It's good to have a career in school.

But I don't have a choice.

Some of the disciples chose you despite having a privileged talent.

I'm not going to deny the lives of those happy, dead girls.
