CH 472
“I see, so landed safely.”
“Yes. Some of the dragons can’t communicate, but fortunately, we were able to make peace with the ones who can, and they will be living and training on the island for a while.”
“I understand. So you want me to wait a while before sending the knights?”
“Hopefully. There are no humans on the island, and I’m not sure what kind of island it is, so it’s probably just people to investigate.”
“Hmmm …… looks like it’s a big place, but I wonder why the strongest species hasn’t left the island ……”
I was in the audience room reporting to the King about the island.
By the way, Headmaster Libre was also listening to my words with a look of interest on his face. It’s true that there are examples like Sarge, but it’s not often seen in the human world, as the headmaster said.
“I understand. Hawk and Eagle also wanted to go, so I’d like to ask you to look after them when the opportunity arises. What is Lars going to do after this?”
“After lunch with Prince Orden and the others, I would like to go to the underground prison with Basleigh-sen– …… Minister Basleigh.”
“Tomorrow?”
“……? Tomorrow, I will take my friend Urka to scout around the town of Gust, and then to the country of Orpha to visit the blacksmith ……”
As I was answering, feeling strange that the king was asking me about my schedule, he thought for a while and then opened his mouth with a chuckle.
“Fufu, you’re a busy man, aren’t you …… Actually, I was hoping you could help me with some things. It was fortuitous that you returned from Dragon Island, but.”
“In that case, may I speak with you after I send Urka? I was planning to consult with the king about the battle after I heard about the ten chief priests in the dungeon.”
“Oh, I see! Then come and visit me again.”
“Yes!”
I bowed and was about to leave when I was approached one last time.
“Right, I sent a scouting party to the town of Gust yesterday. The adventurers who volunteered to go with them will probably arrive in about five days, so can you check on them on your way back to Yifa?”
“Yes, sir. Then–“
I left the audience hall and exhaled.
If there is anything I can do, I will do it, and if there is time, I would like to go check on Makina and the others. Maybe I’ll bring them some new dishes or something.
As I closed the door, I saw Prince Orden walking down the aisle, raising his hand.
“Hey, are you done?”
“I just left. Are we having lunch in the dining hall?”
“I’d like to try some of Lars’ cooking, though? Prince Ryde likes the fried chicken too.”
“Haha, I have to go to Basleigh-sensei’s afterwards, so I won’t have time to cook.”
“I see, that’s too bad …… Oh, speaking of Minister Basleigh, Lars’ parents were visiting this morning.”
“What?”
My dad and mom went to see Basleigh-sensei ……? I tilted my head, wondering if there was anything they needed to ask, but decided to just ask and followed Prince Orden to the dining hall for lunch.
“Lars’ parents are very nice people. I only know Lime’s mother, and sometimes I wonder if my father and mother were like that too.”
“We’re a bit on the good-natured side, though. However they’re still respectful parents, and my brother and I want to do a lot for them. Taking back the town of Gust is one of them.”
“Oh, so that’s why you’re being so proactive. Lars doesn’t seem to like conflict, and I’ve always wondered why.”
And as the conversation turned to parents, Prince Ryde spoke somewhat sadly, and Prince Orden softened the situation by talking about something like a stiff shoulder.
It was heartbreaking to hear Prince Ryde say with a smile that his parents would never come back, but that he would get his country back ……
After lunch, I walked over to Basleigh-sensei’s place and knocked on the door to hear her tired voice.
“Come in ……”
“Excuse me …… wait, you’re looking very weak!? What’s the matter, Basleigh-sensei?”
“O-Ohhh …… it’s you, Lars-kun …… Actually, I haven’t eaten lunch yet because I’ve been working so hard …… When I was with Lars and the others, I was able to eat three meals without having to prepare them myself, so by mistake ……”
“‘Mistake’ my ass …… I don’t think it’s something to forget, though …… I’m going to go to AIatsubus now, but what are you going to do, Basleigh-sensei?”
“…… Yes, let’s go …… but first, food…… please give some food ……”
“It can’t be helped.”
I used my strength to carry Basleigh-sensei and walked back to the cafeteria.
“Ohhhhh …… easy like …… Lars is so fast ……”
“Stop it, I’m not a horse.”
Before it was too late, I carried Basleigh-sensei to the cafeteria, where she ate her meal, and we were finally able to talk properly.
“Whew …… that was good. Oh, by the way, you’re going to visit Aiatsubus, right?”
“You ate so much that it makes me feel sick, and you suddenly feel so much better. Yes, that guy must be possessed by a demon too.”
“…… I see, if we can get her out, we might be able to get some information out of her. But that’s hard to do in a dungeon, you know? The demon itself is powerful, so if it were to target the king, we wouldn’t be able to defeat it, and we wouldn’t be able to handle it on our own.”
“Well, I’m thinking about that. Let’s call Retzel too, he’s a pain in the ass but he’ll be useful.”
“Right. Let’s bring Brother Himmel-niichan, who’s in charge of surveillance, along with us.”
Basleigh-sensei and I moved hurriedly.
Putting off the story of how Dad and Mom came to see Basleigh-sensei, we went to the house where they were keeping Retzel …… Well, it’s getting really busy ……
The isolated house near my home is guarded by knights and has a somber feel to it, not unlike a quiet residential neighborhood.
When I walked in, Himmel-san welcomed me and explained about Aiatsubus in the living room.
“Yes, it’s fine. I’m interested in the demon inside you too, Basleigh-san.”
“There is no such thing as an inner demon, is there?”
“I don’t think that’s a good word to use since you’re known, Basleigh-chan. Can I ask Irumi-san and Reiss-san also be ready?”
“I’m always ready. Kuku ……. I’m always up for a chance to have Lars all to myself!”
“I’m good too. I’ll tell that brainy girl you’ve been having an affair.”
“Wait, get away from me, Reiss!?”
Pushing aside Reiss who’s tangled in my arm, I start walking back up to the castle.
…… We’ve been wandering around too much. But I guess this is what I have to do to take back the town ……
And when we arrive at the dungeons, we find Aiatsubus in a state of bondage–
“Yes. Some of the dragons can’t communicate, but fortunately, we were able to make peace with the ones who can, and they will be living and training on the island for a while.”
