"Lord Antogal, I've brought you a line!
The general praised him as he stepped into the room and proclaimed aloud.
"Um, come in."
A king sitting on the throne in the back speaks to the general. The general looks back at the Ethereal Tails behind him and once he nods, he proceeds to walk. The Ethereal Tails follow later, as the General told them, and where they stopped, the General and Antogal kneel down and bow their heads.
"Hmm, give it a face. Don't get down on your knees in the first place, it's easy."
The king had a serene expression, and the goodness of character seeped into his face, even if it was a bearded dwarf.
"General, you may step back now."
"Ha, excuse me!
To the king's words. Once he bowed his head, the general went back into the line next to the red carpet.
"Antogal...... you look good. I look neat compared to when I saw you before."
"Thank you. Thanks to this guy, I could blow it off."
Antogal, who was standing up when the general moved, said a word of gratitude to the king as he gently tapped Ethereal's shoulder.
"Hmm, where did your Lord say he was the Savior of Antogal? What's your name?
"I'm Sota. He's a traveling adventurer."
The king nods with a smile, without changing his expression even against Ethereum in his unsatisfactory attitude.
"Uhm, let's thank the Lord. Thank you for saving a promising blacksmith in our country."
The king remained seated, but bowed his head deeply to Ethereum. Ethereum and Deena were surprised by the way it was going. It could never be described as a good attitude as a king, and the king bowed his head lightly against a single adventurer whose identity had not been revealed. Such acts were to be blamed in strong terms by the heavy towns in some countries, but all the heavy towns and soldiers in line watched with a smile.
"Keep your head up, this one would be awkward if the king of one country lowered your head. I just did what I thought I needed."
Aotearoa was slightly confused by the King's attitude, which she had not expected.
"Ho ho ho, you don't have to be modest. Is it okay with your daughter that you defeated our general?
"Yes, my name is Deenalius. Thank you for the opportunity to see today. However, I would like to correct one thing, but if I were to say that I defeated the General, I would think there would be a discourse. Because the general was alarmed to see what was going on here, he was able to close the gap."
After a grace, Deena corrected the king's words with a fluffy smile.
"Neither is underestimating... hey General, what do you think?
"Ha, I wonder if Lord Dinarius' strength is certain. Earlier, it was said to be alarming, but I think the word" alarm "was not enough to clean it up. He didn't have a hand or a leg, anyway."
The general reported that to the king, but at the end of the day he laughed when he saw Deena's face.
"Ho, ho, if the loser says so, maybe enough to believe it. Don't worry, I'm not messing with you enough to pursue it."
The king smiled gently at Deena, who looked slightly at her in the words of the general.
"So, what's the point? You just called me because you want to talk to us?
Aeta, who hated the fact that the spearhead was going to Deena like this, returned to the conversation.
"Oh, you did. I expect here that your lords have acquired large quantities of ore in this mining, but what do you say?
Antogal and Deena were not going to answer this question, but were sending their gaze to Aotearoa.
"I can't tell you how much, but I'm pretty sure I was able to secure some amount"
I did not intend to declare it because the actual quantity is not the quantity that I would normally be able to carry even if I had a magic bag.
"Hmm, I hope so, but can't you have some of them split up? Of course I'll pay you the right kind of reward."
"... what if I say no?
Aotearoa narrowed her eyes and dared to speak like she was going to try the king.
"If you refuse, you'll have to give up, and the Lord is not a person in this country in the first place. I can't force you. I'll ask Antogal once and for all, but of course that's not compulsory either."
Aotearoa was confirming the surrounding reaction, not the king's, but especially those who changed their expression.
"I'm sorry to say it in such a way as to try, it's impossible to say everything, but it's possible to separate. So, where do I put it?
I didn't intend to divide it depending on the response, but I thought that Aotearoa could divide it if it was this reaction, including the surroundings.
"Ooh! Can you split it!! Then go to the warehouse. General, I need guidance."
"Understood."
Hearing Aotearoa's answer, the king becomes a full grin, and hastily orders the general to guide him before Aotearoa's feelings change. Originally, the guidance was to be given to soldiers downstairs and to stockpilers such as Ore, but it was to be left to the generals who had already interacted several times regarding Ethereal Tai's response.
"Check before you go. Now that you've handed over the ore, is it okay that the case against us is over?
"Um, let me say thank you for this, but I don't mind you liking it later"
The king answered Ethereal's question without precipitation. I couldn't even see how there was a back in particular.
"We apologize for the offensive attitude we have shown to all of you in our history. Something tells me I'm something of another race, and I was so anxious to see what kind of treatment I'd be treated like. Now if you'll excuse me. Deena, Antogal, let's go."
Aotearoa changed her attitude and greeted the Kings with great admiration, turning her heels without waiting for a reaction and leaving with Deena, Antogal and the General.
Those who remained in the room were astonished by the leopard's weirdness, and as Pocahontas, they looked at the door from which the Ethereals had gone out for some time.
"Lord Sota is a bad person, too. Making fun of everyone like that..."
The General also knew that Aotearoa's last words were not sincere, although it was a short cliché.
"Well, I didn't mean to tease you. Yeah, I told you, it was just a disgusting one. I was wondering if I could dispel the impression at all. The king didn't seem like a bad person, so I thought I'd make a good impression."
"Ha, you were thinking about that in that moment"
Antogal had a grumpy look like he was impressed.
"Let's go to the warehouse and do more than that. I just want to get this done."
