116. It’s been three days! (1)

“How about… ?”

The next day, as soon as I returned to the palace, it was Carlos II who found me.

Since he is the teacher of the warriors, he seems to be hoping that there will be a way somehow.

But unfortunately I had to shake my head slowly.

Princess Catherine. Heir to the kingdom with talent.

As a result of looking at the perks, Princess Catherine was definitely a decent person. She

She has her own political philosophy, and she was well prepared as a king.

If Carlos II died, he would have been a pretty good king to succeed him.

Being greatly shocked by that damn prince.

If he hadn’t shivered while wrapping himself up after that.

“Sorry.”

The princess’s current state is that she has managed to put together what was on the verge of crumbling.

If you carelessly touch it here, it will break down again.

I need more time, I have to watch more without rushing.

It is clear that she is a woman who is aware of her position, and has confirmed that as a perk.

Maybe if Carlos II can’t hold out any longer and gets closer to his death.

At that time, she will go out even if she is forced to take care of her body and mind.

“But I saw the potential.”

“Possibility… If you say… ?”

“As His Majesty said, he was definitely a good person. I will correct the words. It’s not a roadside cracked stone, but it’s likely a mineral. He might make a good king.”

“Thank God… Fortunately….”

“Instead, I need time. I myself know that Your Majesty has collapsed, so I am going to force myself to come forward. But it will still be hard. Because my one and only brother was about to commit such a cruel thing. You can’t force it, and you can’t rush it. Until you break out of the confinement and come out yourself.”

A princess-like case is one in which persuasion or pressure will ruin the case.

She’s not stupid, she’s not an idiot, she knows what to do.

But she is just fighting every night to overcome the trauma.

Perhaps, if she realized the seriousness of the situation, she would be able to pull herself together.

Until then, Carlos II’s job is to wait and wait.

And until then, he was holding on to his life as best he could.

“Sorry for not being of much help.”

“No…. The one who is said to be the hero’s teacher… Do you even say that… Rather, I have hope….”

“If you really want to see that hope, hold on. We have to endure until the princess comes out.”

If the king dies before the princess comes to her senses, it will be ruined.

Surely, the collaterals will rise up here and there to try to become the king at this opportunity.

In addition, he said that he would hold the hand of the collateral and stand at the center of power.

There is a very high chance that even those damn nobles will appear together like a swarm of bees.

Still, the atmosphere is agitated due to the attack on the castle.

If you get caught up in power struggles, this country will perish.

This is the yard where fanatics have already advanced right in front of the castle.

If a fight breaks out over the throne there, the security will be at its worst.

If that happens, it will give the demon worshipers a little more time to breathe.

I’ve barely been able to afford it, but it’s like kicking it.

“As I said, the divine hero, Lily Hyacinth, is planning to stay at the royal castle. And the magical hero, Daisy Blossom, will also stay in the castle for some time.”

“… Hey, maybe….”

“Daisy is to prevent remnants from attacking the royal castle. And Lily will stay here, taking care of Her Majesty and the other patients, as well as taking care of the Princess.”

To be honest, Lily’s abilities are not very helpful to the princess.

Because it wasn’t physical damage, it was psychological damage.

However, Lily is showing a very good figure in that area as well.

Since the title of saintess was not acquired for nothing, it will be helpful in examining her princess.

“The rest of the warriors are zealots who can roam the country again. And I will subdue the demons. I will move too.”

“… Thank you. Really… thank you….”

“That’s why I’m suggesting, when I come to the capital in the future, no more my students. So don’t keep the warriors in check. Now we must fully cooperate. The time has come for the kingdom to adapt to the warriors, not the warriors to adapt to the kingdom.”

In the yard where even the king fell, a nobleman with a strange plan could emerge.

And it is the worshipers of demons who are good at connecting with such people like ghosts.

In this situation, the royal family and the warriors cannot keep fighting.

Someone should step back, and one should go in a bit more.

I wanted to set aside the royal family this time and create a more favorable environment for my disciples.

“Treat warriors like warriors. And give direct support to those who follow them. Money or whatever. Individual militants, don’t talk like that. I will speak in an introductory way, Your Majesty. If the warriors didn’t come forward, this country would be doomed long ago. Until now, my disciples had made concessions for the sake of the people of the kingdom, but not anymore. If you don’t treat your hero, you’ll end up disappointing him and those around you. I sincerely hope that this will not happen, so I hope you will consider it.”

Are you threatening the King?

If I had to question it, I would say it could be.

However, this is a necessary step rather than a simple threat.

Cooperation cannot always be obtained while expecting the best results from each other.

Some have to step back and some have to take more.

The most important force in the current situation is my disciples, the warriors.

So, of course, the royal family had to make concessions to them.

That was my conclusion, and the reason it came out so strong.

“… Got it. My… to do so… Summer solstice.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“However… As much as the kingdom yields… You’ll have to do your best…. You too vaguely… You know…. When the kingdom finally collapses… The biggest damage… With you… They are warriors….”

Who is the king of a country, who is not a politically resourceful person?

It seems that he grasped this side’s weakness in that short moment.

After all, all warriors are made of flesh, blood, and bones.

If you don’t rest, you’ll get tired, if you fight while you’re tired, you’ll get hurt, and if you get hurt, you’ll bleed and be in pain.

There is no point in protecting a ruined world. Even if you fight on fire, you will come back as ashes.

“… Now you… Where are you going?”

“I have a few things to check. So I’m going to go somewhere quieter.”

“I see… If it takes a long time… This will be the last….”

“I told you. It’s called Bertish. Please hold out for a long time.”

“Cool, cool. My son… It seems like he keeps beckoning me to come….”

“Ignore it. Is that your son You’re a devil.”

“You are right… It’s the devil… But… He was also my child….”

The longer I listened, the more my stomach felt like it would explode.

So I said goodbye to Carlos II.

When I came back later, I think it was a bit better than now.

Or else I would see the King lying in the coffin.

Honestly, I would like the former to be possible, but the latter is also quite likely.

I just want it to last as long as I said, as long as possible.

Even if the king is on the bone, the king is dead and alive.

Because it will make a huge difference.

* * * * * * * * * *

“Did we say goodbye again as soon as we met like this?”

Ga-ram whines when the grass is dead.

As well as the ears, the tail, which was always wagging, was drooping.

Originally, Xenia might have come forward and complained to her not to overdo it.

But this time, Xenia seems to be equally disappointed.

The fact that I had to leave again after only a few days seemed very sad.

“It is said that I had some time to spare by repelling the enemy’s trump card, but that doesn’t mean I can’t use that time. At times like this, we have to catch the worshipers who drank even more.”

“I understand. Since the enemy’s strength has been reduced by half, they will not be able to move recklessly. But… What I regret is that I can’t help it. I just wanted to spend some time with Master.”

The reason they whine like that is probably because of future plans.

Lily and Daisy were placed as personnel to stay in the castle for a while and look at the situation.

These two stay in the royal castle and raise the public order once again.

At the same time, it will give you the feeling of protecting the castle until the injured rise from the sickbed.

After that, when the capital is stable, we will head east immediately to repel the monsters.

The other disciples also said that they were all moving individually.

But from now on, I changed it to a two-person team system and made it move.

Because if the Demon God’s Fragment were to surprise you, at least you should be able to retreat.

First, Gerard and Iris will form a team to circle the north.

And Garam and Xenia will head west.

Lastly, the south is me, Master, and Iris, who still needs a bit more training.

I was thinking of adding Esther, who needs a step to relieve timidity and open up.

I know that the relationship between Garam and Xenia is very difficult.

But even though those two don’t get along, they don’t do it until the dangerous moment.

It seemed like they were fighting each other just when they were fighting the demon fragments.

At the same time, we best understood each other’s attack methods and assisted each other best.

Because the time we spent together under me was quite long, our understanding of each other was high.

That was true for Iris and Gerard as well.

In the case of Lily and Daisy, they are the ones who can support their clumsiness as much as possible.

Since that’s Lily, I half forcibly put it on.

“Master, Master. Can’t you stay with me in the castle for a little while?”

“Garam is right, Master. Please. Just three days, three more days.”

“These guys are really… Don’t you know how precious three days are to the enemy?”

“Please, Master. I heard you were with Daisy and Iris for a few days. You should give me a chance!”

“What an opportunity! Nothing happened, you guys!”

“Lies! I already heard everything from Iris. Let’s take a tour of the royal castle together!”

“Ha?”

“There! I heard you went to a dress shop too!”

“Kyaaang?! My, Xenia! Uh, is that real? Dress shop? Dress up!?!”

“….”

I quietly glared at Iris.

Why do you pay for this nonsense?

“Why do you look like that?”

Of course, Iris responded by asking what was wrong.

Inwardly he sighs.

I know very well how Garam and Xenia feel about me.

I thought it would have lessened if I kept some distance.

How come it’s not much different from before, but it seems to have gotten worse.

“… Good.”

What can I do? It’s what I did, so I have to deal with it.

“Three days. It’s only three days. In the meantime, let’s take a break at the castle.”
