The Principle of a Philosopher by Eternal Fool “Asley”
228, Your Majesty.
I had no choice but to use wind magic to replace the air, use light source magic to brighten the room, and trap Porch in the Holy Ten.
"............... something is wrong!?
Porch screaming like a prisoner in a cage (,).
"You won't have a choice. Be patient until Her Majesty leaves here."
"Negotiations?
"… allow the tropical cat three days and unlimited sugar intake for that period"
"Let us order unlimited salt intake permits and luxury dishes of over one hundred gold"
If you had 10,000 gold, you could enroll in the University of Magic, but what a luxury...!
Well, the pay from Polco ahead will come in with Don, and maybe three days?
Although ancient, I even came to the final of the Cup of Demons. You'll also need some rewards.
Negotiations are in place.
"It's a comfortable junction space -!
Hooray for once, I smiled and went in to take a seat and looked back at the queen.
"Are we done?
"Sorry to keep you waiting"
"Fine. But it's not enough...?
The empress narrowed her eyes and flushed them towards the bench.
Well, it's certainly not a good idea to let him stand. I take the sigh I want out and unfasten the cape on my shoulder and neck.
The detached cape was placed on the bench and draped to the ground.
Slowly, and gracefully, the Empress lowered her hips as she raised the edge of her mouth only slightly without saying anything.
That's a boulder, one very elegant way to sit with a woman there.
Empress...? An old woman who's lived a completely different life than Eileen.
You seem highly skilled as a woman. No, he's my bad type.
"Phew, make it easier"
"Yes."
That's what the Empress told me, and I let the posture I was right rest and put my hands together behind my back.
"Oh? Do you have kids that year? You're gonna have a hard time, aren't you?
Whoa, speaking of which, I could see Leon round, but is it okay?
Porco didn't care there either, and is that okay?
If the Empress knew Leon's face in the first place, wouldn't she use us to put him in the Cup?
"Yep. But he's a good boy, so he's helping us."
"Hmm. You just have to fill your mouth with cotton, like baby crying."
No, I can't.
Totally, I've never been done that before, so...
"At least the rest grew up that way."
Have you ever been?
I see you've seen a little half this guy's life.
I have no choice. It takes the form of a slight objection, but should I say it?
"I don't think cotton should be... stuffed. I hope I can draw on your baby's needs then."
"Heh, shall we head for the rest of the blade? If short-lived is what you want, you can do it, right?
There is no need to rush. I can't pace myself.
This place should hold as long as it matches the Empress's pace.
I think so and shake my head slowly.
"I don't mean to be hairy"
"Hmm, same thing. Even more so if it comes with my husband's spit."
... Well, if both the Adams and Fulbride families were here, you'd notice.
Well, I know that much and there's a reason the Empress isn't getting out of here.
Of course...
"But I don't care about that story. That's right, I said paua or something. Are you willing to serve the rest?
That's a straightforward move. But the prediction came true.
My solicitation. Even if the Empress had no fighting skills, that semifinals would have allowed her to feel the strength of the Porch on her skin.
If you want the power of a user demon named Porch, it is his Lord who dictates.
In fact, I've read in books that scouts come from all kinds of workplaces every year to contestants in the Cup of Demons.
Well, the Empress came directly this time... well, how do we escape?
"With all due respect, I am an adventurer. Adventurers love freedom."
For now, I answered not to be taken for granted... but... you're a boulder queen. Poker face is also tickled.
I have no idea what you're thinking.
Maybe it was self acting that was giving me all my emotions earlier.
"Damn, you know what your position is and you say that? You can pick that short life with the rest of your voice, right?
This is a warning...... right.
Even if we're not scared of it, we can't live in this country.
Even if you run away, once the arrangements come out, you won't be able to use any store, inn or adventurer guild.
Well, in my case, I have illusion magic, so it's okay, but the Empress doesn't know that.
Other countries can live, and we'd better not take this as a threat.
The Empress is only making fewer choices of her own. I guess we should stay strong here.
"I have lived long enough (,,,) to look like this. And..."
"Hmm?"
"As His Majesty the Empress said, it is upon me, to spit."
Ooh, scary eyes. I'm totally the enemy here.
The fact that I publicly proclaimed my connection to the Holy Emperor convinced me of the Empress's inquiry.
".................. that's a joke. Sounds like you're telling me to laugh.
"If the world were wrapped in laughter, it would be a wonderful world"
"Nabu Kid..."
Oh, scared.
But you better stir up hostility here.
The fact that you're here to solicit me means that that's all the Empress is losing its power.
Besides, it was the Empress herself who came. I can't count on anything else, or the person I was counting on has left me... it would be reasonable to think so.
If that's all you're stuck with, it's easier to read the Empress's next move if you stir it up.
"I don't want to..."
"... Huh!?
"I mean it"
Create a full smile and unleash magic that fills the entire room.
Perhaps the Empress will now be exposed to this magic and will not be able to stop breathing and chills.
She leaned down and chewed her lips.
"... stop"
Take that word, and I'll stop the magic I was releasing. I knew it was the Empress even if she rotted.
By the time I looked up, I was already pretending to be calm. Not on your face, a resolute expression and words.
"Heh, heh, heh."
"Huh?"
"Ha-ha-ha, ah-ha-ha!
Suddenly the Empress opened her mouth and laughed and showed it even though she said it was in public.
Needless to say, both me and Porch have become Kyotons.
And a few seconds of laughter stops perfectly. It's enough to feel creepy indoors in an instant.
"Um..."
I can't stand it. I call the Empress.
Then the Empress said with the same look on her face as she wore the mask when she came.
"You were right."
"Huh?"
"If laughter makes the world peaceful, it's wonderful."
Again, what's not in my mind.
"It's been a while since I laughed out loud (,,,,,,,). I have to thank God for meeting you."
... is that so?
"We had a good story. Sometimes you don't feel bad."
That being said, the Empress stood there softly and walked quietly to the door.
From the side of the queen, who stopped in front of the door, the queen whispered in a small voice to me when she opened the door.
"Final, encourage at best"
I answered with courtesy and dropped off the queen's hindsight until she was invisible from the aisle.
Pathan and I closed the door, and Porch, who remained a kyoton, asked me questions from within the Holy Ten.
"Why was he laughing so hard?
"Oh, that one. I made it all a joke. You're a little behind me."
"Hmm? What do you mean?
"The Queen's solicitation was a serious story when we first heard it, wasn't it?
Porch shakes his head vertically, yeah.
"I took that invitation. Try to stir it up."
"Yes."
"That's good. But the queen didn't take the incitement seriously because of what I did, and she accepted that it was a joke. That's why I laughed."
"Why are you laughing when you take it as a joke?
"The problem was not that I laughed, but that I took it as a joke, and I said, 'The solicitation was another joke.' Forced."
You finally realized what my words meant, Porch pounding the meatballs.
"I see. There was no solicitation. We just had a chat. It was just a visit. That's why it happened, right?
"Pulling in anger and inciting it also fails. But the Empress got our information. Looks like you didn't do anything and got a good harvest. It's tougher than I imagined, that guy."
"Huh……………"
I make a similar voice before I leak my impressive voice.
A boulder, not a glimmer when you are also the Empress of a country...?
