001 新たな旅立ち
【Axeplant Castle: Throne Room】
“Ah~… This room really calms me down…”
I partic.i.p.ated in the open-tournament of [Etherclan] and took home the reward money.
I’ll teach those money waster how to live economically――.
Is what I swore but I fell asleep right after eating――.
“I’m thirsty… Ruru, tea”
“No way. Do it yourself Kazuha”
“Ugh…”
The little girl silently reading a book at the conference table answer with a sharp tone.
I then make tea and reach for the tea cup beside Ruru while complaining.
“Tao~? Is the cake not ready yet~?”
“Eh? We ate it a while ago. There aren’t any left”
“ThErE ArEn’T aNy LeFt! That’s just weird!”
I complain at Tao who is sewing at the conference table.
I purposely copy Tao’s tone.
“You’re so noisy Kazuha”
“Yup. Even though the afternoon has a great weather and it’s quiet. Please grow up a bit”
“URGH…”
Tao agrees with what Ruru said.
I ignore what they said and sit beside them.
“Fofofo. You lot never change… Can I also be in part of your play?”
The bearded old man peers out from the selfishly installed atelier in the throne room.
A dish of half-eaten cake is still in his hand――.
“Nope! Not with a dirty old man with a half-eaten cake!”
“Is that so. That’s too bad. I can’t eat it all because I’m already full…”
Zegius goes back to his atelier leaving those words.
“…. You all… really don’t care that I am your queen…”
I gave up and return to my throne as I let out a very deep sigh.
Even though I earned 10,000,000G for them, these retainers know no grat.i.tude…
…
・Spirit Ruryuseim Orinbia → Forcefully Abducted ☆
・Blacksmith Zegius Bahamut → I leave all the hard jobs to the prime minister as well as smithing teacher ☆
…Yup.
I guess this is what you call, you reap what you sow.
“At any rate those guys haven’t returned yet… They’s so slow…”
I mutter while taking a random bunch of data from beside my throne.
I thought that they would finish first before me…
“They really are late. We did contact them a week ago”
“Maybe they’ve finished a while ago and is now currently drinking in a bar. The drunkards Selen and Alzein are with them…”
“…If they really are drinking then I’ll deport them…”
I a.s.signed Rei-san as the chief member even though it’s her first time as a mercenary offor the mission in the
They’re pretty much the [world cla.s.s mercenary group].
“…Hmm?”
A sealed letter then came flying in from somewhere and a light spreads out together with a tone of *pi- pi–.
This is――?
“Hou…? It’s a <magic letter=””>… Maybe it’s an emergency transmission”
Normally a transmission is delivered by a messenger however that takes 10 days.
Therefore this is a rare sight…
“…It’s from Rakshadia republic”
Ruru stand up from her seat and took the sealed letter.
The moment Ruru took it the light fade so as the magic power.
“What does it say?”
Tao peeks at it.
I too stand from my seat and look at the letter that the little girl has.
“Uhmm.. [In regards to the annihilation of the mercenary group , the mission has failed. The heritage<4 treasures=””> have been taken――]”
“W-wait! Eh? Annihilation…?”
Ruru made a mistake reading it so I read it once again.
[In regards to the annihilation of the mercenary group , the mission has failed. ]
