103 Lesson 2: Getting Ready To Travel
Although I have decided to go as the head of the new city, there is no reason to go to the site immediately.
I'm more careful not to think and move like I used to, than my consciousness as a royalty has sprouted.
So get ready to head to the site. That was the first thing I should have done. First I have to take over the job I was originally contracted to do, then I have to decide on the selection of a samurai who will take care of me around me, then a few dedicated escorts as well.
Just because I can fight doesn't mean I need an escort anymore. My job is to stand on top. The fact that those who stand on top of it step forward more than necessary leads to the taking of their successor's job. It's my job to raise the next generation.
"I don't like it! Don't leave us, Your Highness!
"Ugh... one paperwork... two... three... look... it's full, Her Royal Highness Sister Wang..."
"Rather accompany me! Let me accompany you! Shoes or should I lick my shoes?!?"
Yes, it's an important job! I said it twice because it's important! That's why I ghosted my mind as I threw the magic ministry clerk around.
What is crying to me is the new generation that has just entered the Ministry of Magic, the graduates of the College of Aristocracy, which began with a new system. They crawl up to me like zombies and sue desperately when they hit the juniors of Yufi and Raini.
With dreams and hopes in the Ministry of Magic and Sciences, they came in with their eyes shining, their eyes completely dead. I am also familiar with the fact that I am being pursued by day-to-day tasks such as processing documents, compiling the results of research experiments, organizing stockpiles consumed and equipment loaded, and preparing presentations to win budgets.
'Cause it was me who was turning around the back doing that final supervision and assistance. Well, I left the practice to them, so I didn't think it would be a problem if I pulled it out...
"Yeah, get away from me! You have no choice! King's life, king's life! Besides, I was on the back, and you guys were in charge of the practice, so it's okay, right?
"Not without Her Royal Highness Sister Wang!?"
"Isn't your advice accurate in times of trouble! He's the founder, so maybe it's natural!
"The seniors have a glitch in their eyes, they're occasionally freaking out, and it's Her Royal Highness Sister Wang who has a good chance of being able to respond properly!
"Her Royal Highness Sister Wang also has a bit of an allergy, but she's the most decent person in the erasure method! I don't like to go! Her Royal Highness Sister Wang is the savior of this madman's lair!!"
"Am I supposed to mourn the terrible way they trusted me? Hmm?"
Since when has the Ministry of Magic become a den of madmen? No, sometimes I've had complaints from the Kingsguard Knights about stopping me from getting involved in crazy experiments.
That and this is also the problem with the fact that the work of the Ministry of Magic is growing faster in snowman ceremonies than more manpower, but I can't help it all.... maybe.
Or I'm being treated like a decent person. The situation is already chaotic. If I'd taken the initiative and started researching or something, these kids might have been genuinely freaked out.
"I'm sorry, but you guys at the Ministry of Magic can't pull through, can you? I'm just short of people."
"Oh no!
"If you're gone to Her Royal Highness Sister Wang, you'll go crazy to us!
"Welcome Madness... Hello Work... Goodbye Vacation..."
"Uh...?
I'd like to do something about it to snap into these hands and legs, but it's pathetic and a little hard to try to pull them off.
"- What are you guys doing?
A shoe sounded in it. Appearing in this chaotic setting is a girl wrapped in a white, smudged robe indicating the affiliation of the Ministry of Magic, braided and tied up with gentle shades of brown hair. The glitter and glasses seemed brilliant to hide the blue eyes.
Hino, and the officials of the Ministry of Magic and Science who were entangled in me are jumping away from me, trying to lean against each other, wrapped in a piece and trembling. It looks like you're fighting the girl who showed up on this scene. No, I'm actually fighting fear.
I kept my glasses brilliant, and the girl with a flashing look on her face - I let Halfis raise one hand.
"Good day, Halfis"
"Good day, Sister Wang."
Halfis greeted me back in a flamboyant manner with a soft grin.
Halphis is beginning to feel more and more worthy of the impression of saying he is the President of the Commission since he began wearing glasses.
She was also beautiful enough to sigh as a woman again. The atmosphere should be described as a wife drifting there for the most part. Since marrying Marion as Countess Anti, Halfis had been polishing its charm more and more.
"Her Majesty Queen Uphilia has asked you. This time he became the head of the new city plan. I would like to offer you my heartfelt congratulations."
"Stop it, change that. But thanks."
"Yes, I can't get away from here, so I look forward to seeing the good news of His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere."
"... maybe I'll keep you busy, but this one too"
The moment he squeaks softly, Halfis's calm grin changes slightly. The eyes do not focus and the neck tilts slightly to the side. It's like a doll hanging from a thread is laughing. Katakata, where are you going to hear it coming from? It's a little horror.
"Yeah, yeah. Is that what you think you have to do anymore? It's okay. I'll take care of it. I can go."
"Where are you going..."
"Haha. Well, I know how these kids feel. It was truly heartfelt to say that Her Royal Highness King Anisphere would refrain behind me."
I put back the odd way of laughing, and I look at the officials who are shaking and solidifying after Halfis smiles bitterly.
"I appreciated your advice to the point of arrival, which I only reached because I was the founder, and I really let you breathe when you were stuck. And Sister Wang really helped me turn my bargaining hand behind it. Until His Royal Highness King Anisphere returned, it was my take around...... Ugh...... Budget...... Acquisition...... Human Resource...... Securing...... Research Time...... Screwing...... Scheduling...... Scheduling not to mesh......!
"Halphis, Halphis. Come back."
"Yes, I'm fine"
Halfis, you're blind, aren't you? I couldn't say anything as I pulled my cheeks a little. I did take the job because everyone seemed to have a hard time...
... Is that it? I thought anyone could do that, but maybe not? No, I just have to prioritize that one over what Uffi asked me to do, but I feel a little guilty...
"... are you sure you're okay?
"Master Marion will help you there. Because Marion is better at external folding. I think I'm better suited to facilitating work within the Ministry of Magic and Science."
"Optimization is Halphis' specialty, I trust you."
"I'm afraid."
There's some anxiety, and I'm worried, but Halfis and the others are trying. To the extent that I won't be forced, no, I may not, but I want you to do everything you can to the extent that it won't crumble.
"Come on, you guys! So if you're shaking and solidifying, you're free, right? You're free, right? Oh, good! I just thought you needed manpower!
"No, no, no! Senior Halfis is going crazy today!
"Give me Count Anti! Get me Count Anti! We're still in the final stages, we're still on time!
"Okay! You guys! I'll take care of this. Stop Senior Halfis!
"No, I will! I'm worried about you!
"What are you talking about! I'll go!
"I won't allow you to run out......!
... Are you sure you're okay, Ministry of Magic (here).
While carrying out the handover of the work of the Ministry of Magic and Sciences, we must decide on the personnel to be taken to the planned new cities in parallel.
The samurai told me that Ilia had chosen me, so I decided to choose a knight to take with me to the escort. I was walking to the Kingsguard Knights' stuffing for that.
"And for the record, lend me your gakun, Commander Sprout Knights"
"I don't know what that is, but I generally understand. Let me lend you a garc lamp. Besides, do you want to go?
"I thought they took me all of a sudden, and you're selling me my personality lightly!?"
I grabbed Gakun's neck, which was in the middle of training on the road, and took him straight to the office of the Knights Commander.
If I told you I could trust you with a knight to escort me, I'd be gutted. 'Cause I know my heart, and it's sturdy, and it feels right with me.
"Huh? You don't like it?
"I'm not saying I don't like it, but like this, I wanted to be appointed to feel more dreamy and romantic......!
"Gakun is all I have..."
"I dreamed of this guy like that. I was an idiot!
I vomit evil, but you're so cute because you can't hide being a nigga. Just a tribute or something. Let's hang on a little longer, what I say.
The Sprout Knights chief had a bitter smile when he saw me interacting with Gakun, but he made no point. Gakun is not a kid who can't do it properly either.
"But Gark alone will not be enough as an escort. Take at least one more."
"Me too. I guess it's really better to be there more, including taking turns...... I want to leave Yufi with the people I can trust as much as possible. The Kingsguard Knights have many opportunities to deal with Uffi, so they have a good heart test for Uffi. If you think about it, you don't really pull out of the Kingsguard Knights."
It's been a year and a half since Uffi became queen. Yufi's popularity has been very high since his innovative revelations. But it's politics that doesn't completely turn into a rock.
Uffi has the absolute value of a spiritual contractor. For factions with deep-rooted spiritual beliefs, Yufi feels the intention to remain in charge as a symbol at all costs.
At the earliest possible time, there is no choice but for magic to spread to the country. But I want to worship the newly born honorable blood muscles as kings. Few people fear that their rights may be threatened by civilians who do not draw honorable blood.
Few people stand out and hostile to Uffi, but if there is a gap, there are people who want to push Uffi in the direction they want. Yuffi declares that he won't take my son-in-law because he says he's the only one who loves me.
But if we stay like this, the next king's blood will be cut off. There are many aristocrats who want to avoid it. It comes from pure goodness. Some desires, while others have a variety of disturbing aims with desire.
I don't think Uffi can easily get his feet stuck, but I want Uffi to rely on people if he can. If you can do it alone, you won't stop seeing the sacraments of Uffi. I don't want to reduce the number of bills Yufi can handle as much as he can.
In that regard, I am less likely than Uffi to be targeted by nobles with ambitions. The blood of the royal family that I inherit is losing its value with the reign of Uffi.
My value is more than royalty, my value as the founder of magic. If you do something to get rid of me, it could touch Yuffi's scales. So no one tries to get their hands on me.
Well, that's why some people don't like to let me go wild. But I can't interfere because of Yufi. I guess that's the situation, because Lord Grants and Miguel are buying information.
My thoughts got me out of the way. I don't want to pull too much talent out of the Kingsguard Knights who are drunk on Ufi for Ufi. So even if I take you there, I feel like I'm almost alone.
"Hmmm... Her Royal Highness the King of Anisphere. I would definitely recommend one person."
"Recommended?"
"Yes, Gark is quite a powerful man among the Knights when it comes to sword arms. But given courtesy, identity, etc., the political position is very fragile."
"My ear hurts, Captain Knight"
"If you choose Gark as your escort, I think it would be a good idea to address the people who fill the shortcomings of this Gark. I know a knight who meets the requirements and has a good relationship with Gark."
"Hmm?
It is true that Gakun was born in the Baron family, but also in a house that originally had a peripheral territory. For this reason, it is easy to imagine that there will be contempt for being made.
If Gakun's shortcomings can be filled and he can work with Gakun, I would definitely like to hire him.
"The question is what that person thinks of me."
"Uh, knight captain. Maybe it's who I think it is, isn't it? I don't think that would be a problem..."
"Gakun, what kind of person is that?
"His Royal Highness King Anisphere doesn't even know him."
"What, really?
"'Cause Master Navre wants to recommend you, doesn't he?
"Yep. Still an immature fool, but fits the conditions"
"Huh!?"
What, Navre is the one the Knights of Sprout wanted to recommend!?
He's certainly the son of the Earl's family when they say he is, the son of the Knights Commander, and I know he's the one who can make up for Gakun's low status...
"Besides, Navre is distancing himself from Her Majesty Queen Uphilia from the disturbances in the example. But then you'll have to encourage a change of heart to do it as a knight. Then I thought it would be a good idea to leave the King's capital and take a moment as an escort for His Royal Highness King Anisphere, who is active in New Heaven and Earth."
"Isn't that a mix of personal affections, Commander Sprout Knights..."
"Ha ha. But I want to leave a knight with whom Her Majesty the Queen of Uphilia can put her faith. I can make up for the shortage of guards. It is also true that it is the son who fits this condition and is convenient. If His Royal Highness the King of Anisphere is good, then yes."
"... speak to the person and confirm from me again if that will be the case. Is that good?
"I don't mind. Okay, let's get this over with now. Gark, get me Navre."
Roger that, Captain Knight.
After thanking the knight, Gakun left the room and went to get Navru-kun.
Speaking of which, you haven't had a chance to make proper contact with Navre since. What did Navre look like in the meantime?
