“Have a safe trip, I’ll buy the food ingredients, so let’s have a house party for dinner.”
“If they’re busy, come back right away.”
“Wanwan!”
“Grruuu.”
Basleigh-sensei, Fath-san, Schneider and Radia saw us off and we left the house to go to the theater.
It was almost evening, so Basleigh-sensei said she would prepare a meal for us. We nodded to Fath-san and walked on, knowing that we would have to start work in the evening.
“It’s getting late, so maybe we should go to the guild another time.”
“Yes, that’s fine. I’m sorry, Lars-kun, for having you show us around when you’re so busy.”
“You’re right …… I’m sorry.”
It seems that Kudelica wants to go, so when I declined it, and Kudelica and Ryuuze apologized.
“Ohhhh, It’ll be fine for today. In the end, the week will be spent on transportation, the status of the work on the house, and asking Basleigh-sensei to communicate with the king. Ohhhh, and Prince Orden might want to see Ryuuze, you want to go sometime?”
“Ohh …… It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, the Prince …… You’re right, we haven’t meet each other at all. We’ll get to that later. I’m not a nobleman, after all.”
“I don’t think he’ll mind too much, though.”
Prince Orden is so friendly that I wish I didn’t have to worry so much about him.
“Anyway, this a big place. As I thought, the residential area is from the shopping district to the monsters’ garden, right? There’s a lot more to see over there.”
“It looks like a field or a place where they plant flowers.”
Luciela and Luciel were scurrying around again, saying the same things as before, which made me laugh. But, it’s the first time I’ve heard of the flower garden …… the girls have a keen eye for that sort of thing, and my brother and Nora spoke to Luciela.
“We were also surprised when we first came here. We didn’t get out much because we were watching Schneider and the others, so maybe we can take a walk and do some sightseeing this time.”
“You’re right! …… When we’re done with all of this, let’s all get together.”
“Yeah ……”
When Nora thought about what was going to happen next and said something along the lines of “not yet,” Makina put her hand on Nora’s shoulder and muttered with a troubled look on her face.
At least for today–
I said that because there are events that require the entire town of Gust to be evacuated. We can’t just wait for seven days and then go out and fight, so Ryuuze and I have to stay in the town of Gust.
In particular, I have to be there because I’m going to be the guide for the transfer magic circle.
“Verna-sensei and the others and Aina can stay with us for now. There is room for them.”
“Thank you, Lars-kun. I’ll take your word for it, since the kids won’t want to leave.”
“Yay! I can stay with Ash and the others! I wonder if Mom will be here soon.”
“Kuoon♪.”
“I guess I’ll ask Nina to come over sometime? One room for Verna-sensei and Tilia-chan. One room for Nina and Trim would be just right.”
When I was counting my fingers, Makina said to me with a curious look on her face.
“What about Dedite-san and Nora?”
“We’re going back there! We’ll move in when they get here.”
“I don’t like the idea of the lord’s son running away so quickly, and I don’t want to stay here when Lars is still there.”
I nodded my head in agreement with my brother’s words.
He’s got [Charisma] skill, and I’m sure he’d be a great help. I noticed Urka, who had been walking in silence, and called out to him.
“What’s up with the silence? You haven’t seen Milfy in a while, have you?”
“…… Y-Yeah. I’ve already said I’ll come get her one day, but I didn’t think I’d see her again so quickly ……”
“Ahaha, come on! Why don’t you just think of yourself as lucky to see her when you can? Urka-kun is doing a great job, and I hope he can learn from you too.”
“Ouch!? What are you doing, Naru!?”
Naru slaps Ryuuze’s butt and jumps up. The two of them could be in a good mood, but they’re probably like that because of Ryuuze ……
As I walked, feeling a little sorry to Naru when I saw Ryuuze dying in the dream, covering Naru, and shook my head.
“Ahh, It’s a big house!”
“Fufun, that’s the theater! Aina had been there before. RIght, Ash?”
“Kuon!”
“Why are Aina and Ash are the ones so proud of it. Did you forget that you were scolded? Er, guys, this way.”
We walked around the back of the theater, patting Ash in Tilia-chan’s arms, and called out to the usual receptionist.
“Excuse me, can I get Helena to–“
“Oh, Lars-san. Please come in. I think Helena-san is in her dressing room!”
“Oh, can I come in?”
“Yes, the owner has assured me that Lars-san, Makina-san, Fath-san and Minister Basleigh will have no problem.”
“Seriously …… T-Then, I’m sorry to bother you ……”
I was puzzled, and everyone behind me looked at each other, eyes wide in surprise.
“Well, let’s go then.”
“Take your time♪ …… Well, this is …… another bunch of cute girls …… The owner won’t shut up about this ……”
“What? Did you say something?”
“No, no.”
We walked into the theater, tilting our heads at the receptionist who gave us a welcoming look.
Even if it was by accident, we had been here several times and knew our way around, so we made our way to the dressing room where Helena and the others were.
“…… Makina, can I ask you a favor?”
“What? Why?”
“Well, all the idols are girls, and it would be bad if they were in the middle of changing their clothes, right? The guys will be in the back, so you can meet them alone.”
“Ehhh, I also want to see the idols too …… Ouch!? What the hell are you doing, Naru! You’re gonna crack my ass!”
“Hmph.”
“Ahaha, I’ll call out to her then. Helena, it’s Makina, are you there?”
“Kuoon.”
As soon as Makina knocked and called out, Ash imitated her and squealed, which softened the situation. After a short wait, Helena happily came out.
“Yes~♪ You’re back already …… Ah!”
“Long time no see, Helena-chan!”
“Hi!”
“You look great. Is that your costume? It’s so cute!”
“Fufu, hello.”
“Verna-sensei too!? What’s wrong? Oh, Ryuuze and Urka too! Milfy, come here.”
Helena is surprised, but her face looks very happy. She was already getting ready, fully dressed and with a hint of makeup on.
“Here she is …… Urka’s girlfriend ……”
“Excited.”
“Gulp ……”
An emotional reunion.
However, that’s not the only thing that’s bothering the ladies about Milfie …… please stop it because Urka is beet red and hanging his head.
As I was looking at him with a wry smile, he called out to me from the aisle.
“Oh, if it isn’t Lars-dono!”
“Oh, Kleinert-san. It’s been a while.”
It was Kleinert-san, the owner of the theater. I returned the greeting with a light bow.
“What is it today?”
“A friend from my class came to the Royal Capital, so we came to see her. You’ve met Urka, your brother and Nora, right?”
“Yes, thank you for your help with the ghost incident. She’s been doing a great job guarding the place at night too! Ho, there are a lot of women …… Mu!”
“? What’s the matter?”
When Kleinert-san turned his eyes toward the Makina and the others, his eyes widen and grumbled.
…… I’ve got a bad feeling about this ……?
“If they’re busy, come back right away.”
“Wanwan!”
“Grruuu.”
Basleigh-sensei, Fath-san, Schneider and Radia saw us off and we left the house to go to the theater.
