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

"Your Highness, I see you called in my squire last night, how can I help you?"

That morning.

I spoke to the prince who was on the terrace during his official duties.

The prince answers with a smile.

"I wanted to talk to you a little bit. I'm flabbergasted."

"He looked confused, so I told him I didn't have to go. Will you refrain from such calls in the future, Your Highness? Because if she hasn't decided to go into the backyard yet, she's not your maid."

The prince turns to me and tells me the truth. [M]

"... something seems to have misled me. I just really wanted to talk to you while I was making tea."

"At a time like that?

"For the convenience of official business, it's really late at night. Everyone seems to be feeling a little off because they usually match my time. I'm sorry."

The prince, yes, honestly apologizes.

But I'm suspicious.

"Could you apologize to Efa, too?"

"... go ahead and do it yourself. If you're serious about inviting me back to the palace,"

To my answer, the prince opens his eyes to surprise. [M]

"That's surprising. I thought I would refuse to enter Efa's backyard."

"... Is His Highness really willing to let that child into the back palace in the first place?

"Whatever."

The prince nods loudly.

"Because what did you like so much?

"Looks, does that mean"

……

"I'm not just talking about beauty. I was attracted to that brilliant atmosphere."

And the prince says, looking a little illuminated.

"Probably... Isn't Efa an excellent student, even in that school?

"Well, you generally take first or second place in the written exam."

"Again!

The prince says happily.

"It is customary for Astilia that the Queen also be heavily involved in government. The woman who will be my wife must be wise."

"Ha."

"Plus...... Efa is so beautiful and pathetic. There is a luxury worthy of being the face of the country. What's more, it's my taste..."

The prince continues, coughing once.

"Since becoming an imperial nation, more and more people have power, even civilians, from the development of the economy, and now descent has become less important. As far as I'm concerned, I'd like to welcome you to the First Queen, if I can, to support the King in his affairs."

The prince told him so in a serious tone.

Then you see me with a subtle look.

"Most of all... in that beauty, in the capacity of a slave. I know you've been close to Lord Seika before... but I don't care. Her past, too, seems hidden on the face."

"... that's not how Efa and I relate."

"Mm, well. But for the pattern between the squire and the master, I felt that the distance was close..."

"She's a so-called domestic born slave. Because I grew up together at a very young age in the Mansion. It's kind of like a sister to me. I'm younger."

"I see, I fell to my heart. If so... Lord Seika. I'd like to ask you again. Could you give her away?"

……

"I'll pay you as much as I want. Getting into the rear palace of Astilia should also be happy for Efa. From my point of view as my brother, could you wish her happiness"

"If you're talking about selling, I refuse."

I say.

"However, if that child wants to enter the rear palace himself... then I will free him from slavery in this country. That won't be a problem."

"Mm, well... When..."

The prince says, somewhat unspeakable.

"Could you persuade her, Lord Seika?"

Huh?

"Thanks, I seem to be avoided..."

"You know,"

I say with my face drawn. [M]

"Speak for yourself about one of the women. Your Highness, you're a prince, aren't you? It's fine with appearance, and no one is more blessed than you probably are. More or less…"

And here I close my mouth.

Not good, I almost went into preaching unexpectedly.

"Anyway, I just respect Efa's will. I'm not going to do anything extra."

"Well, no, it's better. Lord Seika really thinks about Efa..."

Then, the prince asks quietly.

"When… would she wish to be freed from slavery status"

I answer with a slight frown.

"That's well, I guess there's nothing good about being a slave. I'd like to let you go, but we need adult guardians in the Empire. The school is giving me a slightly narrower shoulder."

"Right...... ok"

The prince nodded firmly as to what he found out.

That reminds me of another matter.

"By the way, Your Highness. I'm going to go into the dragon mountains tomorrow."

"Become... to that mountain? It's reckless, it's too dangerous for anything."

"It's okay. I just want to arrange some supplies. May I ask for it?

"Oh, oh, I'll let my men prepare that... but what do you need so much as an arrangement?

"It could take a few days to get food, change clothes, etc."

"Sure, if you were to go into the mountains and look into it, it wouldn't be a day... I see, it would take a few days..."

The prince nodded loudly after whining somewhat.

"Okay. We'll arrange everything we need to investigate."

I look at it and look at it. [M]

"... Yes, please"

This guy......

I don't suppose you're thinking of anything extra.

****

And the next day.

I was climbing a mountain behind Protoasta with my back sac behind my back.

The prince prepared what I said, but it was only this morning that he had everything.

Thanks to this, I left a little behind schedule.

Yuki asks over his head.

"Is the Dragon's Nest far away?

"That's a long way off. Besides, I have to make some roundabouts. I want to avoid being relative at night, so I need to go wild somewhere."

Normally, birds don't fly at night.

But monsters don't make darkness a problem, as you can see from the fact that they have attacked you without hesitation when you encounter them in the dungeon.

There are also records of dragons flying through the night sky.

I didn't want to deal with him in the dark too much.

Normally, wild lodging would be a lifesaver in the mountains, but beasts and miscellaneous fish monsters can be anything in a junction or ceremonial god.

Anything can go all night with owls and lighting, but I didn't like to get tired from the first day.

There's nothing I can do.

The destination, current location, and surrounding terrain are all known by taka and crow.

If beasts and monsters are nearby, you can tell right away with rats and mediros.

The mountains that people never set foot in are like gardens from me.

……

It's just... Efa, who came to drop me off, seemed a lot worried.

I'll get you home as soon as I can.
