CHAPTER 49 – VIDEO CALL
Guernica Royal Capital, Lumo.
I came to a mansion in the middle part of the capital.
Sylvia, Nadia, Coco&Mami, and me, the four of us.
「We had been waiting for you, Lucio-sama」
The one who welcomed us was Amanda.
She’s an older maid that is serving in my family house, Martein House.
Coming to Lumo, I asked Amanda to go ahead of us and acquire a mansion.
That is the mansion that is in front of me.
With only its wideness, it’s one level bigger than the one in La Linea.
「Good work. This is my mansion?」
「It is as you say」
「The price is?」
「It is only 30% of the money prepared that I had received from Lucio-sama」
「30%?!」
I got surprised.
「Isn’t that too cheap」
「The property value is cheaper compared to La Linea. In truth, it was possible to have 100% remaining, but I refused」
「100%, what do you mean?」
「The influential people, merchants and n.o.bles, who had already heard about Lucio-sama, they offered it for free to buy your welcome. I refused all of it, and gained it only with its price in the market」
「……Amanda’s amazing huh」
「I am not worthy of those words」
No, I really think that it’s amazing. Not mentioning that she didn’t jump to it since it’s cheap or for free, on top of that, she took her ways buying it at its price in the market.
「Good work, Amanda. Return and say my regards to Ojii-san」
「About that, I think that he would visit very soon」
「Is that so. Well, I expected that. It’s Ojii-san after all」
It’s easy to expect for Ojii-san to visit suddenly.
I once again said thanks to Amanda for her work, and sent her off.
Looking around here and there inside the mansion, checking the layout, and checked the furniture. And there, a sound was made from the door knocker in the front entrance.
「Is someone here」
Sylvia said 「Ha〜i」, and went to the entrance.
「Ehhhhh」
I heard Sylvia’s shouting voice.
I ran to the entrance.
「What happened……ohehhhhh」
I couldn’t help but raise the same voice as Sylvia.
The visitor in the entrance, it was theKing.
The King who should’ve been in the Royal Capital La Linea, is there with his incognito appearance.
「O-Ou-sama? Why are you here?」
「I came」(Kichatta)
You came, you say.
「Ou-sama, did you come to visit Lucio-sama?」
Sylvia modestly asked.
「Umu. I couldn’t help myself worrying what my Senjukou was doing, and left the palace for a bit」
「Is that okay?」
「There’s no problem」
The King said it clearly.
Is there no problem……
「I properly〜, left a note. There’s no problem」
「Just a note?! That’s a huge problem!」
I couldn’t help but point that out.
「Well well, rather than that, this, it’s for celebrating your moving」
「This is?」
I received the thing that the King reached out.
There’s a red colored noodle inside.
「Ah, it’s the red noodles for moving. Thank you very much, Ou-sama」
Sylvia who took a peek said her thanks.
「Umu, eat it leisurely later with my Senjukou」
「Thank you very much」
From Sylvia’s reaction, it looks like it’s something like soba being given when moving.
Well, that’s fine though.
「Is it really okay, Ou-sama」
「It’s alright. I had properly written in the note that I would go to my Senjukou’s place. They know my destination, and this world’s safest place is my Senjukou’s place. There is no problem at all」
「U〜n, thenーー」
「It is a huge problem it is!」
The door opened, and the minister came inside.
He had sweat on his forehead, and was catching his breath.
His appearance was simpler than the King’s, and people who don’t know his face can only see him as a middle-aged Ossan.
