The Magician Wants Normality
The disturbances are with unexpected people.
Mizuki, this is King Alberda's daughter.
"Ha... ha..."
I'm a little confused about the Demon King introducing one woman. This is the office of the Demon King. Suddenly, ahead of the call...... one woman wearing colors I've seen somewhere.
Ugh, yeah, it's Master Will's daughter, isn't it? Something to the late, in a personal letter from Glenn: 'Be your ally!' They say so. By the way, the letter arrived just now.
The woman looking anxiously at this one - the Princess of Alberda - looks just like Will in color and eyes. Originally its character may also resemble that of Master Will, but now it was slightly pale because of the nervousness.
Glenn, is this attitude of hers due to the intimidation of the Demon King?
Or are you freaking out about an otherworldly ferocious species?
Make sure you write the details, Shota Cat. Huh!
"Oh, uh, nice to meet you, Master Magic. My father takes care of me from day to day."
"Oh, no, this is me, I'm taking care of you. Glenn is also protected..."
If I accidentally gave it back, the princess grinned as relieved.
"Glenn, I've heard about your little father. Of course, the magician and his hometown. … it may be wrong to say something like this, but I am grateful that my little father Glenn has come to this world… No, he has come to your father"
"... Glenn is liked, isn't he"
"I think they recognize you as an absolute ally of your father. Some people are annoying, but that must be a secluded place where you couldn't keep little Glenn on your side."
I see Glenn has gained tremendous trust as Master Will's ally. He was a habitual kid from the beginning, but once nostalgic, he was also an honest kid. And... it wasn't even stupid. Because of our education, we're not even adults.
I guess Master Will was missed by Glenn because he wasn't willing to use Glenn. In response to such favors from Mr. Will, Glenn returned favors in the form of "delivering results."
As a result... well, he also said he sprang up a hostile one. Well, that's a common story for power fights.
I guess this princess is also smart with only Will's daughter. In Alberda, we don't know how far women are involved in politics, but we seem to have a perfect picture of the situation in Alberda.
In the first place...... you don't look afraid of the Demon King or me. The demon king's intimidation needs to be used to, so it seems to react somewhat. None of us have the impression that we believe in unconditional fear or malicious rumors.
By the way, I know how royalty interacts with each other, but what's the reason I'm there?
Such a question appeared on his face, the Demon King urged him to take a seat.... Um, princess? Why, pull my sleeve and say, 'Stay next to me!' Cause it just gives you a desperate look?
"Mizuki, you sit over there. Even with me, it's easier to talk to each other."
"What? Well, I don't mind either"
Sitting next to the princess for the most part, she looks openly relieved.
...? It doesn't look like you're afraid of the Demon King, but is it also a scolding case, Princess? Well, I'm used to being scolded by the Demon King, but I'm not involved in diplomacy ~? You have no right to speak up!
……
Ha!? No way, Glenn's favor is something like 'get mad at me with you'!?
I secretly tried to keep my distance, and now the princess put me firmly in her arms. Oh, this fortitude reminds me of Master Will......
But for some reason, the Demon King, who was supposed to be annoyed by these things, nodded with a smile.
"Mizuki, you can stay put. She'll be fine, too."
"Um, I don't see the story at all? Because Glenn only tells me to 'be on my side' too.... take a sermon with me, not something like that, right?
"Ha, no.... Right, I was wondering if you'd like to hear my 'please'?
A demon king who deepens his grin, but was in the front I realized... demon king, my eyes are not laughing at all. I mean, you're angry at something!
Freaking me out and stiff, the demon king turned his gaze to the princess. The princess nods one, slowly opening her mouth.
"This time, the nobility of our country has caused great inconvenience to the merchants of Irfena. I came to Ilfena today to offer my details and apologies."
Oh, the Demon King must have been admired by the merchants. Alberda told the Irfena merchant that she had done something to him.
If you're a merchant who deals with nobles in other countries, you're a solid person. So the princess came to apologize on behalf of the country because it was detrimental to the merchants under the protection of the Demon King?
Well, I can see this. It is not in the wrong capacity for the princess to be sent in on behalf of the King or Prince Wang because it matters when he comes out. If it did not also directly harm the royalty or the country, it would be a reasonable place.
Because the apologetic opponent, the Demon King, for the second prince, the two aforementioned may result in the 'must forgive' situation. As for Master Will, he must have erased the possibility of making them uncomfortable.
To show sincerity, and to show a genuine desire to apologize, I wonder how to subtly say that - but the male advantage would be the same in every country - a white feather arrow stood on the princess of.
One convinces me. Approximately, the princess went on to talk.
"My friend, the Viscount Lady, was engaged to a Kingsguard knight. My friend is an impeccable courtier, but it seems that the engagement was decided between each other's grandfathers… The Kingsguard Knight, the Earl's family, was dissatisfied."
"The impeccable warrant, yet? Not like there was someone else you liked?
"I guess the Kingsguard knight was an ambitious man. And you must have been confident in yourself, the Kingsguard knight. The Counts can also aim for marriages with higher nobility."
"... if you're a countess, you're not talking about no marriage to the royal family. Besides, the knight is certain to enter the son-in-law. If you're ambitious, no wonder you're aiming for a son-in-law into a more prestigious house. It sounds like it's coming."
"I see."
Nodding, yeah, to the demon king's commentary, which supplements the princess's story. I don't really care about it in Irfena, but I guess in other countries, the character of the house still involves birth. With me, there was an event where I realized the walls of my identity were thick - that in the north - so I'm convinced of that.
"Last month, a lady from the Duke's house visited Alberda from Kivera. This is the niece of King Kivera... and there is one side to me. I'll always get what I want, just like that."
"She's a nasty bitch."
"But it looks so adorable... it doesn't look strong. Is it good at being sweet, and does it even feel like it's frivolous? So, you're worse off than you are. It seems that I have been spoiled because I do it in the form of a 'forced contract'. There must be pressure from the people around us."
"Ugh, bad nature!
The princess sighed. That tired look gives rise to a certain certainty. Ahhh... is that the 'hobbyist' this princess? You were sent to Ilfena with an explanation of the situation because you were harmed in real time.
"What she liked was the Kingsguard knight, the fiancée of a friend I spoke to earlier. No matter how many identities you have, you want a fiancée of a person, etc., you don't go seriously with a lady. Naturally, we talked about it, including having a fiancée, but we never changed our attitude."
"A man would have thrived just because he had the prey he was after."
"Yes. The Kingsguard's house also seemed to have preferred to deal with the Duke's house… a request from the Duke's house in Kivera, which shielded him and unilaterally destroyed his engagement. Push everything into that kid's house... in a month until marriage!
Is that when the anger came back, the princess's eyes set. The hand that grabbed the dress grabbed the cloth in a critical way, and for the time being, he seemed to forget where this place was.
……
Well, that's an expected development. King Kivela's niece would mean the child of a descended princess. I guess I let him escape outside because he wouldn't interrupt the royal bloodstream... but didn't the princess understand the dangerous situation at the time?
Otherwise, my only daughter can't grow up. Think about a second war madness, something that educates you exactly.
The princess would have been removed from the target of war madness because Kibera had no women in politics. With King Kivela, we would not have been able to afford it at that time, and it is likely that all we wanted was' leave the blood for now '.
Think that far and think of 'possibilities'.
... Is the Duke's family a survivor of a party that tried to take Lucas in?
If it had such a role, it wouldn't have been disposed of in that one case. Unless you've done something deadly, the survival of the house in the name of 'Leaving Blood Behind' would be permissible.
Sometimes the dukes and sons are decent, but mothers and daughters are assholes. Either that or the House of the Duke of Fakr in Gania was exactly the case.
But one question arises here. Unexpectedly, the point of sight was not the princess...... but the demon king.
"Engagement isn't that heavy in this world, is it?
"Yeah, I am. So it also applies to the guardianship system. If it's just the destruction or dissolution of an engagement, it's not uncommon. I guess the problem is' that time of year '."
You've noticed! All I'm saying is, the upbeat demon king. That grin is horrible.
"Um, marriages in my world... even those between civilians are a lot harder than breaking an engagement a month ago. Marriages between nobles are so easy to destroy…"
"That can't be true. There's a lot going on, and they should be sending invitations. I tailor what I can wear, and a lot of money moves. Even the merchants who match the requested products spend their time and money."
"Right! The victim... So you pushed the Viscount Lady!
"Looks like it. Damn, fools are in trouble."
The demon king, speaking with a smile, with his cold cut eyes. Intimidation - maybe unconscious - that makes her cancer stronger, the princess clings to me in tears.
Ugh... yeah, this pisses off the demon king. Anyone would be pissed off at being too selfish. Still, the opponent is the Duke's house in Kivera...... King Kivera's niece.
A country that had not yet fully improved its relations with Kivera and was feared as a major power from the beginning. I can't even complain to my Kivela opponent, and Alberda seems to have prioritized his apology to Ilfena.
It's just... it's 'common' to cry.
It was the Demon King who pissed them off. The Demon King is the guardian of the merchants.
Besides, the Demon King has loyal hounds & black cats.
And the black cat is an influential otherworldly ferocious species there in every way.
……
You packed it, those guys. You must have insulted him as a merchant, but you didn't know the Demon King was holding back behind it.
"I understand your anger, Demon King, but please also say a word about the betrothed lady."
"Aren't you glad you didn't have to take the fool as your son-in-law? In the first place, the circumstances of this divestiture are not complimented. Looks like the other house is a bastard, and I'm glad the connection's gone."
……
"If she had an untrained fiancée, too, she should have moved. I don't feel sorry for you more than I did for you."
The demon king who says hello seems to be the prince of the kingdom of the powerful, and he seems to have very dry thoughts. Does the princess also agree with the point that 'it's good to be out of touch with a fool', even though she doesn't dispute the appearance of complexity?
But, demon king. I think the general public will have the impression of being a 'sorry lady'. What if these notions led to a 'ruthless demon king' rating...?
The Demon King is never a man without feelings. Ningro, reverse. In this case, only because "the subject to which the Demon King turned his love is not his Viscount Lady".
Public Idea: Poor young lady who was pushed to end after her engagement was broken.
Demon King's Idea: What are you doing to my kids (= merchants), koraa!
Exactly, the fact that 'the cause of anger is the merchants who were scorned'. It's just that the princess seems to understand those temperaments of Ilfena, and even says, "I'm sorry!" He was bowing his head.
Um, princess... I know you're scared, but you keep your head down with it stuck in my arm, stop.
"King Alberda is a wise man. This is how you sent the princess to apologize because you know the wrath of Ilfena.... Oh, how does Kivera react?
"Don't you know King Kivela?"
"Maybe. That's why I called you here."
The Demon King smiles at me, grinning as I dull.... I'm sure it's my fault that the room temperature has dropped.
"Mizuki? Don't you have a good idea? … it's a corner toy, you can have fun."
"Wow... Demon King, you're in deep anger"
That, in a nutshell, means' kill me ', right? Yes, it's true, it's a fierce alien species with a proven track record so far, but that's how much to expect...
As the cold sweat drips, the princess, who had raised her head until earlier, follows desperately.
"Master Magic! My little father Glenn told me, 'If you leave Mizki to retaliate, it will never be bad and it will lead to the worst settlement for them'! Please, help me!
"Hey, what the hell did Glenn ask you!?
"We are asking very reliable people about retaliation, mastery and backwork!
A good smile from Glenn and Master Will passes the back of his brain to the princess who says it without hesitation.
Glenn...... you not only said 'please my princess' from the start, but 'retaliation, gamba!' Including, you were sending a letter!? You're chewing on one, too, Will!
"If you don't respond to the expectations, right? Because he's a magician and he's my black cat."
The gentle voice of the Demon King is directed at him like a chase.
The voice, the smile and... I was nodding instantly in the eyes I wasn't laughing. Nodding, in his chest, he scolds the Duke's Lady and the Kingsguard knight, whose name he doesn't even know.
Stupid! My days of serenity are over because you piss off the Demon King!
At the corner, I came back from Gania!
