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

From Protoasta to Asta, the king capital, it took less than half a day by carriage.

Really close, Efa is about as clapped out as some.

I didn't even know why I made the transition... but I'm sure there was a lot about the location, the scalability, the ease of laying imperial streets.

Asta, the king capital, was a sophisticated city.

History is new, only planned and roads and buildings are reasonably located.

It was urban enough for Efa, though just not as good as the Empire City.

Nevertheless, I'm not here for sightseeing.

A view of the city's landscape was also there, and Lise and Efa headed straight for the rear palace.

The rear palace was built as a separate building in a painting inside the Royal Castle of Astilia.

Much bigger than Efa could have imagined.

How many women live in this?

With that in mind, Efa steps into the building about Lise -.

"... Um"

"What?"

To Lise, who returns it briefly, Efa asks.

"This is the rear palace..."

"Of course."

"So what are you all doing here now?

"You'll see"

Lise says naturally.

"I'm taking a lecture."

One room in the back palace.

It was like a school auditorium.

Step-by-step desks are equipped with well-dressed girls.

Lecture stands were placed ahead, writing formulas with lime bars on black boards, while female faculty members gave explanations in a voice often attended.

The content of the lecture is apparently statistic.

"When Astilia was an independent country, she said this was also a normal backyard. I mean, the king's wife and mistresses live in a garden of loathing and conspiracy swirling women."

Efa looks up to Lise, who starts talking quietly.

"But it has changed since it became an imperial kingdom. Simply put, the inheritance problem was solved. Because women and adopted children are now recognized as heirs to the throne."

"... In the past, wasn't there a queen?

"Oh, I wasn't there. Royal paradigm and unacknowledged. In the first place, a woman couldn't even inherit her property."

"Were you..."

"But not in the Empire. In the days of intense encounters with the Demons a long time ago, women's right to inherit was recognized because of the continuation of houses where too few men met with a crisis of disconnection. And in attributing Astilia, the Empire did not tolerate the difference in food here. Probably decided it would be an obstacle to widening the economy. In the form of the superiority of imperial law, women's right of inheritance was also recognized in our country"

Lize continues.

"And that also extended to the right to inherit the throne. The queen is ready to reign. Furthermore, this circumstance led to the imperial imperial royal family being allowed to inherit the throne of his adopted son, and the inheritance issue was completely eliminated. At the same time, we no longer need the rear palace."

"Ha... I see"

Even Efa knew what it meant.

If only a man can inherit the throne, the royal family will be cut off when the prince was not born. I will need a backyard (Halem) with lots of women to avoid it at all costs.

Unless, however, the Queen is recognized. Simply, the probability of a succession being born is doubled.

When you can adopt a child, you no longer have to worry about inheritance.

Inevitably, we don't need a backyard.

"But... how could that be, like this?

"It is customary for the Queen of Astilia to be deeply involved in government affairs from generation to generation. There were more talented teachers in the Back Palace than there were in the past who were educators. Even after the first queen reigned, there followed a leading man who wanted to let his son enter the rear palace for education. I guess more people want to leave their homes to their excellent daughters if they have to inherit their property."

Lize continues.

"And here's what happened. The rear palace is like a girls' school now. A lot of people later get involved in national politics, so we can call it a training agency for women bureaucrats."

"Well... Your Highness Cecilio didn't have anything special about me, did he?"

"No."

Lise laughs and says.

"Historical queens are mostly out here. In that sense, this place is still a backyard. Some people come in for it... You were definitely young."

"Oh really..."

When they say that, I'm still confused.

... but.

It's brighter and more open than I thought - I felt it was a good place.

"- Yes, so that's about it for the foreground, and first let me get you all used to the idea of statistics"

Looking back in front of him, a laid female faculty member was putting up a dice.

"It's a problem. When I waved this dice, what six eyes came out ten times in a row! Now, what's the next chance of getting six eyes out? So... Mr. Cornelia."

"Yes."

A vibrant blonde girl surrounded by a noble atmosphere rises up and answers with dignity.

"It's a sixth."

"Thank you"

The female faculty laughs and says.

"Does anyone else have an answer? Aren't you there...? So, you're the one who came to visit today."

Eyes turned to themselves throughout the auditorium and Efa raised her voice in surprise.

"Uh, eh? Me...?

"Yes, let me know what you think"

When I look at Lise by accident, she's just laughing funny.

No choice, Efa answers with a tendency to nag.

"... I think we'll have six more next time"

As soon as that happened, the laughter leaked from all over the auditorium.

"You better not gamble."

A girl called Cornelia raises a teasing voice.

"Did you know about the independence of events? Whatever eyes have appeared in the past, it has nothing to do with what comes next."

Efa, who is told, says back a little bit.

"… the probability of six coming out ten times in a row is roughly one in six million."

"... Huh?

"Instead, why do you think that happens naturally?"

Efa says, looking to the female faculty.

"That dice the teacher has, weighs biased... no, isn't it all six eyes?

"Excellent! You're absolutely right!

A female faculty member raised a happy voice for a moment.

And he turns the dice he had from the end seat to the students.

I don't really see it from here, but I guess everything was still a dice for the squid sama with six eyes because the students in my hand are circling their eyes.

"If this was a lecture in arithmetic, Mr. Cornelia's answer was correct. But this lecture is a statistic that explores the odds that no one knows. I don't consider bias just a coincidence, I see that as a tendency. Forget preconceptions and calculate probabilities from actual results. That's..."

****

At the end of the lecture, there was a crowd around Efa.

"Hey, where are you from? Are you really from the School of Magic?" "Can you use magic too!?" "What's an empire like?" "Have you met His Highness Cecilio?" "When will you come over to the rear house? My room's free for one now!

"Aww..."

For questioning, Efa wandered.

"… Your guests are in trouble."

The crowd quieted as a shocked voice sounded.

Crowds of people break naturally.

Standing there was an earlier blonde girl.

To a pompous Efa, a girl talks.

"I have one question for you."

"What, yes. Hey, what is it...?

"... you don't have to be so sure. You were calculating a six-six squares. How was that?

"Uh... I didn't do the math right."

Efa explains it as pompous.

"If you spend six times, it will be 216, so think of this as 200 for now, eight million over three times. That would have cost me six times, so I spent another six times, 48 million. There must be a little more... maybe, like, six million. I wasn't too sure..."

The crowd was on purpose.

Blonde girl sighs and says.

"I calculated earlier, but that's pretty much it. That's a lot of creativity...... You, what's your first name?

"Efa, it's..."

"No family name,"

The noble atmospheric girl continues, but not with contempt.

"I guess that's all that's good about being here despite your low status. From the Empire, what inspired you to be in the rear palace of Astilia?

"That's, uh... ask His Highness Cecilio to speak up..."

From the crowd, yellow cheers rose.

The blonde says, a little surprised.

"Candidate for Queen...... I thought you looked cute after your excellence."

So the girl offered her hand all the time.

"Cornelia est latosa"

And I say with a smile.

"Though not what I aspire to succeed the housekeeper... I look forward to a day where I can compete with you here"

"Yes. Thank you......"

Efa shook that hand back.

A little, remembering the hindsight.

****

"It would have been an interesting place"

On the way to the inn where you plan to stay.

Lise walking next door said that unexpectedly.

"At least, it's not backyard at all"

"... Yes"

Efa, too, honestly had a good impression.

Somehow, the atmosphere is close to the School of Magic.

However, I felt more serious than the students at school about whether they all had a solid view of their future.

"Because there is such a place, there is a tide in this country that women are civil servants. That's why the young man didn't want you involved in the fight."

Lise says, sighing.

"I was thinking the same way when I was there. If my grades hadn't turned to more and more royal magicians, I would still have thought so."

"... haha, what is it"

Efa laughed small.

Then, Lise starts talking slowly.

"The contemporary king of Astilia… Her Majesty, the young mother, is an excellent monarch. He is intelligent, decisive, and loved by the people. You can call it a masterpiece. Succession to the throne is still ahead of us... but the young must be anxious. I wondered if I could act like that queen."

……

"That's why I'm in such a hurry about the dragon. If you can't solve this, you might even think you don't deserve to be king. And... when it comes to finding the queen, it probably is. I was in a hurry to find the right one."

says Lise.

"Blue man. I'm immature. But... I'm not a bad person. That's what I've known since I was a breastfeeder. I promise."

……

"With your help... why don't you support the young by your side"

"... it's..."

Until now, a favor that you should have said no to immediately.

But now - words caught on to something and never came out to me.
