Episode 453 Unexpected Reward (1)
“Are you already getting ready to go back?”
“That’s it.”
“Huh. “I thought you would stay for a couple more months.”
“The Third Prince’s progress is better than expected.”
“Tsk tsk. “If I had known this would happen, I would have advised him to listen less carefully to the prince’s words.”
“You wouldn’t have done it even if I had suggested it, right?”
“Did I look like that?”
“Yes, enough.”
“haha. This is true. “This is why I suddenly feel like I want to make you my son-in-law.”
“…yes?”
Rakiel flinched.
And then I asked back to the King of Harmion, who was laughing meaningfully (?) in this direction.
“Hey, what did you just say…?”
“I said he was my son-in-law.”
“Hmm.”
“Is this strange to me?”
“yes.”
“Why?”
“That is as far as I know. “I heard there are only three princes in Harmion?”
“Uhm, that’s right.”
“But how can you mean that I can become a betrothal to the Harmion royal family?…”
“Have you even had an ominous imagination?”
“….”
Harnant Ludlow, King of Harmion, Harmion’s bright smile became deeper(?) somewhere.
“Don’t worry. Even the Lord whom we Harmion serves does not perform miracles that change a person’s gender.”
“Is that so?”
Should I say this is really fortunate?
The king appears to have rushed to the country as soon as he heard that they were preparing to return to Magentano. Rakiel smiled awkwardly, feeling uneasy at the lingering affection he kept blatantly showing towards her.
The King also laughed and said.
Calmly.
“If you don’t have a daughter, shouldn’t you make one?”
“…yes?”
“Even if it means taking in an adopted daughter.”
“….”
“How do you feel? “Even among our royal family’s collateral, there are many children of outstanding beauty and talent.”
“….”
“If you agree, I will immediately adopt one of them as your adopted daughter, bring her face to face with you, and then send a letter to the Emperor of Magentano with good news…” “
Stop. Until there.”
“….”
“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it.”
“Huh. “I haven’t even said everything yet.”
“Even if you don’t listen, you can clearly hear, see, feel, sense, and anticipate what follows, and it seems like it will even appear in your darkest dreams.”
“Tsk. This is why even though I like you, it annoys me. “It’s good that you’re smart, but you’re also very quick-witted.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“Are you not showing any condescension?”
“Because there’s no need for that.”
The king lets out a small sigh at this joke.
Fortunately, it seemed like the king’s attempted attack(?) had somehow been put to rest. Rachiel said, feeling relieved at that fact.
“I’m sorry for not being able to respond to your request. “But I feel relieved because the three princes are here.”
“Thanks to the 3rd Prince? “Why?”
“If he becomes the king of Harmion in the future, we will be able to maintain a close and constructive relationship with Magentano.”
“…Huh, are you trying to get involved in our Harmion’s succession to the throne?”
“Can’t it just be a small wish from my son-in-law?”
“stop. Until there.”
“….”
“You’ll just pretend you didn’t hear my request, so you cold-heartedly cut it off and now what?”
“Well, I haven’t even told you everything yet.”
“Even if you don’t listen, you can clearly hear, see, feel, sense, and anticipate the subtle and cunning tongue moves that will follow, and it seems like they’ll even appear in your dark dreams.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“Don’t say anything you don’t mean.”
“Are you really upset because I flatly rejected your request to marry me?”
“Are you saying that’s obvious?”
“I’m sorry again.”
“I’m sorry, but please just listen to me now.”
“….”
This guy is a lot more persistent than he looks.
Rakiel strongly felt the need to change the topic.
“Anyway, I plan to leave tomorrow.”
“Huh? “That fast?”
“yes.”
“It also seems like it was earlier than expected.”
“If we drag it out for too long, it won’t be good for either of us.”
Rakiel smiled lightly.
“So, I wonder if I might dare to ask you a favor.”
“No.”
“Why not?”
“Because I’m not your son-in-law.”
“….”
“…Keuhumhum! Okay, tell me. “What are you asking me to do?”
“When our group leaves tomorrow, please do not see us off.”
“Hmm? “Is that what you were originally going to do?”
“…yes?”
“Then the deal you originally proposed will be carried out properly. “That is why you are asking this.”
“Have you already taken that into account?”
“of course.”
The King chuckled.
And he showed a glimpse of a 9th level political figure who spent his entire life in power.
“You didn’t suggest it from the beginning. “If you cure our third child’s illness, we will hand over Tennion to you.”
“I did.”
“But will the nobles of Harmion remain silent if I officially send you off after obtaining Tennion as a result of the transaction?”
“Of course they will voice their dissatisfaction.”
“yes. That’s it. Wouldn’t it be a completely different story to hand over tenion according to an official royal transaction and for the king to personally send off in a grand manner to the person who acquires such tenion?”
“I thought so too.”
Rachiel nodded.
In fact, it is a natural story.
A deal was made to give away one city of the country’s territory to a neighboring country. That alone was already a serious issue that could cause the nobles in the Harmion political world to become dissatisfied and show resistance. This was because nobles basically owned land.
‘That’s why. The nobles of Harmion must be feeling a sense of alarm and crisis that their lands and fiefdoms may be sold wholesale to the royal family.’
But what if the king officially sends us off?
It becomes a political nuance in which the king himself proclaims a strong message to the nobles that more similar transactions may occur in the future. This means that the nobles’ support for the king may waver in the future.
“Of course, I don’t want that to happen either. That’s why I don’t want to see him off.”
“haha. “Have you thought about it that far?”
“yes. Because it becomes a nuisance with no benefit to either party. So, the request I would like to make is that I would like you not to see me off and not to come near me after today. At least during my stay.”
“this. “That’s heartless.”
“Isn’t this a path for each other?”
“If I do this, it’ll be a big problem because I’ll covet you even more.”
“….”
“I would rather be kidnapped.”
“….”
“I’m kidding. I’m kidding.” “Hehehe.”
“….”
The problem is that it doesn’t sound like a joke at all. Just now, it seemed like there was a faint hint of madness in his eyes.
“Oh, well, I’m a little sleepy so I’ll stop…”
Even though it was a poor excuse, he made up an excuse and barely(?) kicked the king out. Only then did the breath I had been holding come out in a puff.
‘If you don’t run away quickly, I’ll force you to sit down.’
A creeping sense of crisis!
Rakiel hurried even more to pack his bags to prepare for his return home.
♣
“…So, I heard that your father told you not to go out to see him off.”
“So you came to see me off instead?”
“yes.”
The next day dawned.
Or should I say that it is still just before dawn.
The area around the Great Gate, the largest gate of Harmas, the royal capital of Harmion, was still quiet. It had to be that way. This was because it was around 4 a.m. in Korea, where the twilight in the east was not yet bright.
“Tsk. “I deliberately chose this time to leave to be less noticeable.”
“So, wouldn’t it be possible for me to be less conscious of what others think and come out here to see my brother off?”
“Arthur. “I’m going to catch a cold.”
“I’m fine.”
“Why are you taking your clothes off on the street at this hour?”
“Because it’s comfortable.”
The 3rd prince, who ran out without even sleeping to see me off, smiled brightly. Then he added one more word.
“It’s a pity to send it to you like this.”
“…Surely you want me too?”
“yes?”
“After the father-in-law attack, the brother-in-law attack… Oh no. no.”
“….”
“Anyway, keep drinking the decoction regularly. “Apply the ointment well.”
“yes. “Now I can make it myself without my brother.”
“okay. If you have any questions, send a letter and ask.”
“Can I send it to you even if I don’t have any questions?”
“Whatever.”
“And over there…”
“Tsk. stop. Until there.”
“yes?”
The three princes come with a puzzled look.
Rakiel spoke to the guy as if he knew everything.
“You were going to make a new wave from now on, right?”
“…yes?”
“That is the specification. do not do that.”
“What are you talking about…”
“It’s obvious. Thanks to you, I am recovering like this. Before that, I lost hope and blah blah blah, but now, thanks to the change, I will continue to live with this grace in my heart and give hope and happiness to many people, blah blah.”
“….”
“Right?”
“….”
Nod.
The 3rd Prince, who had lost all of the sentences he had prepared so diligently in an instant(?), shook his head, feeling a sense of self-destruction like freshly brewed espresso.
Rakiel chuckled.
“You don’t have to say that, you know each other.”
“Is that something like that?”
“of course. “Today won’t be the last time I see you.”
“Oh, if you say something like that out loud…”
“Death flag?”
“I don’t know what the flag is, but doesn’t that mean something unfortunate happens?”
“It doesn’t happen. So, leave your worries aside. Instead, I wish you would just follow my one request.”
“Please…?”
The 3rd prince asked curiously.
I approached the guy.
And he whispered in a voice that the Third Prince’s attendants could not hear.
“You go up there right away starting today.”
“yes?”
“excuse me. “It is the top of the chapel spire that can be easily seen from anywhere in the royal capital of Harmas.”
“Over there… why?”
“Because it’s a place with a good view. “Your naked body.”
“yes?”
The Third Prince opened his eyes wide.
What on earth is this older brother trying to tell me?
Rachiel continued.
“Go up there naked every day. And don’t move in the Long Live the Sun pose and bask in the sun all day long.”
“Is it… good for treating athlete’s foot?”
“It’s good for your political standing.”
“how?”
“Because you are not fully healed yet. Because the remaining athlete’s foot is still covering your whole body. So, people will be shocked when they see you at first. It’s also embarrassing to suddenly expose your naked body to the world, because that’s not normal. “You will want to ignore it, it will look strange, and you will even feel ostracized.”
“But why…”
“But you will become soft and fresh from sunbathing. On the other hand, I take the medicine diligently and apply the ointment diligently. But many people who see you don’t know that, right? So, maybe you will think this after seeing your athlete’s foot noticeably disappearing. “God’s grace has been bestowed upon you.”
“ah…!”
“Do you understand now?”
Nod!
The 3rd prince’s nod gave strength.
Rakiel grinned meaningfully.
“With that one shot, you will become the number one candidate for king. “Do your best.”
Tuk-tuk.
Tap the 3rd prince on the shoulder.
I patted him lightly and walked away.
There was no need to exchange further tickled greetings.
I was afraid that if I did that, he would burst into tears. On the other hand, I think this person’s nose will get sore because of all the cruelty I’ve heard about him
…
Honestly, he’s a nice guy, but it’s a bit painful to keep seeing so explicit naked people right in front of him.
Rachiel quickly set off with the group for the sake of her eye health(?). I felt the presence of the 3rd Prince waving towards me from behind. Maybe that was why. A smile that I didn’t recognize was gently engraved on my lips. A welcome message of compensation was clearly visible before my eyes.
Ding dong…!
