The Failure Alchemist of the Royal Capital ~My Job Is a Failure So, I’ll Manage My Store Carefreely.~

Daisy, do you know a country called the Schwarzburg Empire?

“Yes, that's the country between our country and the Duchy of Heimstadt.”

I nodded to the name of a familiar country.

Long ago, when I asked Ana-san to become a teacher, she asked me.

Indeed, a coup d 'état had taken place in the past, and the kings of militarism ruled the country. That's why Ana-san and Lynn's grandfather, Drag-san, fled his country without using their abilities in the war.

"Yes, that Schwarzburg. We have information that his country is sourcing large quantities of weapons and armor."... we are alert to our friendly country, the Duke of Heimstadt, and to our war. "

His Majesty can easily bite me to explain what I've told my child yet. His Majesty's face is slightly distorted by grief and anger.

"... war"

I repeat the words with astonishment.

In the quiet room, my heart is pulsating and echoing in my head.

My father watches over me with such a harsh look on his face. And the other grown-ups stare at me worriedly.

"That's right. We in Zartenburg don't want a blood-bathing war, but..." Still, I must do everything I can to protect my people if I can. ”

"Is that why you're offering to improve your health...?"

When I asked, the emperor nodded with an unfortunate eyebrow.

... Shut up. Shut up. It's a heartbeat.

I squeezed my father's hand even harder while being driven by anxiety.

I was scared.

"To be precise, since you allowed the Red Dragon in the Sage's Tower to be your own family..." I was hoping that it would be a deterrent and that the Schwarzburg Empire would give up. That's why I gave you my permission. "

His Majesty is referring to the Red Dragon as Wuwen.

From that time on, this situation shook the country beneath the surface of the water.

"Is it a deterrent...?"

"Ah. The Red Dragon at your place... it was Wuwen." Even though she is still immature, does she have the power as a red dragon? "

"... yes, I think so. You can fly, you can spit dragonbreath.”

"Yeah, well, you wouldn't normally think of trying to reach out to a country where there are people who follow dragons like that." After all, you don't think Red Dragon will be safe from the opponent, do you? "

"... yes"

“That's why I thought I could prevent his country's ambitions. Even so, I'm sorry to use it in silence, Daisy....."

"Oh no! Your Majesty!"

His Majesty, the king of the land, bowed his head to me, so I shook my head to the side in a hurry to stop.

"... I first thought that you and your Red Dragon could prevent the war." However, it seems that his country hasn't stopped preparing for war. "

Katan's stiff sounds led the emperor to know that he was standing up.

"The seeds of health improvement I asked for this consultation... will they be used for that possible war..."

I ask in a trembling voice. Then, I saw the faces of His Majesty, the Warlord, and your father, who were walking towards me.

"Daisy... sorry"

The emperor gently strokes my head while sitting on the chair.

I replied by shaking my head to His Majesty, who had only spoken an apology.

"I want to protect the soldiers who will fight on the front line if there is a war... even one of them." Their chances of survival would be greatly improved if the seeds you have grown were effective. That's why I want them to have the highest priority. "

"... the soldiers may be able to help with this kind of force..."

I mumbled as I gazed at the bag of health-enhancing seeds that I had brought out.

"Yes. Yes. The Commander of the Knights, whom you also know... and your father." And I want to increase the likelihood that as many people as possible will survive to the point where their subordinates do. "

His Majesty's words are a huge shock to my heart.

Your (...) father (...) Shang (...)

... it's painful...!

"... let's do it, ma'am..."

Inside the brain, the scene of (...) and (...) is unfolded.

The sight of your father being slashed with his sword.

The beating of my chest and the beating of my chest.

...... I can't breathe...... I......

Daisy!

Your Majesty and your father's cry for me is getting farther away.

I let go of the horror of my imagined sight.
