Chapter 347: Coronation

“Your majesty, Queen Melty!”

Having coainst Faubley, Melroest country

Having built up a favorable relationshi+p with the Hero of the shi+eld, their relationshi+p with Silt Welt improved, and Silt Welt’s evaluation of the new Queen was quite high

The two countries for at one another had been but a dream

However, neither side es to their slave policies

Under the pretense that things would change someday, the tere merely in a union to rid themselves of the wave

Having gained Faubley’s land, it was unavoidable that things like this would happen to Melroe country by the standards of the time

Because of Tact’s influence, the royals that defied hi

The re to him, experienced a sharp drop in power

The result was that Melromark was able to take control without much issue

Well, in a world with deep-rooted belief in the Heroes, there’s no way anyone would wage a ith the country holding all of them

Because of the wave strengtheningto maintain public order as it is

Ah, right It’s about shi+eld Freiden, but after they learned that Tact had experienced defeat, they had a sudden change of heart and a bit of a shuffling of leadershi+p

They placed all the bla with Faubley on a representative

It’s an aly liberal country When they feel the direction of the wind change, they take measures like this

I guess all’s well that ends well

Normally, their actions would provoke further conflict, but Trash proclaimed that noasn’t the tion

Power is needed everywhere right now, it seems

It’s just that we shouldn’t place too much confidence in them

It’s not hard to see the path shi+eld Freiden will tread down in the near future

By the hile the relations between Silt Welt and Melro built, a lot of money was collected from all over the place in the name of world peace

After peace is achieved, I can see quite a few placesexcuses to reclaim it

And like that, the various actions of various countries were shaken up by Melromark’s victory

For the general populace, it’s just that the head has changed

Even though he technically held the blood of Faublian Royalty, Trash i it

He proclaimed that he would work to support the country as a Hero

As a result, the one who bore the brunt of the responsibility was his daughter, the new Queen Melty

“Long Live Queen Melty!”

The Grand coronation of the new Queen, that takes place in Melromark, involves not only those of the country, but all the allied forces as well

The eneer claps his hands and congratulates her

Perhaps the past Queen’s wishes have been granted, but Melty herself is…

The coronation takes place on the castle terrace that overlooks the city plaza

As a Hero, I am also present

Trash acts as a representative, and he stands next to the throne, crown in hand, waiting for Melty’s arrival

“Froin the coronation ceremony for Melromark’s Queen”

Wearing an extravagant dress that seemed ridiculously hard to walk in, Melty promenades over to Trash

She stands in front of the throne and lowers her head to Trash in front of her

“Now then, Melty Melromark” (Trash)

“Yes” (Melty)

We have consulted the girl for argument’s sake She accepted the position

She was raised as the future Queen to begin with, so she had no reason to refuse

“Up until now, you have been working to overned by the Hero of the shi+eld Through your efforts, the land that had once been left to rot has become prosperous once more It is not a siovern our country of Melromark”

The crowd begins raising its voices

“From this day forth, you will accept the Duties of Melroain the title in its entirety Henceforth, you will be known as Melty Q Melromark”

“I accept it graciously” (Melty)

“Then please take the crown”

Trash balances the crown on Melty’s head before taking a step back

“I hereby recognize Melty Q Melromark’s rise to the throne”

There is a moment of applause

That goes without saying, as it is the moment a new Queen was born in Melromark

And Melty departs froet a better look at her She waves her hand the whole way through

“Long Live New Queen Melty!”

“Long Live the Queen!”

“Everlasting Prosperity to Melromark!”

The people shout out their various wishes at her

Though she’s but a sirl, she smiles as she receives the hopes of the people all at once

“Everyone! I am the one who has been crowned the New Queen of the country, Melty Q Melroht together!” (Melty)

“Yeah!”

“Currently, the world is forle lump in order to combat the menace that is the wave The previous Queen, reement I hereby declare that ill succeed her will!” (Melty)

Deafening applause sounds out once more

Well, that’s how the coronation went To put it bluntly, ere done showing the girl off to the people

“Fuuu…”

In the throne room within the castle, Melty falls back into the throne She seems exhausted

The Heroes, the leaders of the country, and the representatives of the allied forces got together to congratulate her

Her fatigue is understandable

“Mel-chan is pretty~ Everyone was cheering for you” (Firo)

Firo stands next to her, praising her

In the honest way that a friend would

“Thank you, Firo-chan” (Melty)

“You’ve sure made your way up, Melty For the princess of a sest must be quite a promotion You rose up quite a way” (Naofumi)

I offer some cynical words of praise to Melty

“What’s with your attitude?” (Melty)

“Nothing really I was just thinking of the sort of deeds Your Majesty, Queen Melty, would perforreatest power” (Naofumi)

“Good grief… whylike this…” (Melty)

Melty unpleasantly grumbles to herself

As always, her ah her sister wanted so much power

But, it’s not my problem

“It’s going to get hectic from here on out You’ll have to do quite a few pain-in-the-ass jobs for the people, the world… etc” (Naofumi)

“Isn’t that the same for you, Naofumi!” (Melty)

“My term’s ‘til the wave’s over, while you have a life sentence What’s more, unlike me, who just has to do well in battle, you have to do the work behind the scenes Man, Heroes sure have it easy” (Naofumi)

“Mu… I’ll have you eat those words Just watch me!” (Melty)

With a stiff expression, Melty stands, raises both hands above her head, and declares

“For his efforts in the previous war, I hereby grant the Hero of the shi+eld, Naofumi Iwatani, the title of Archduke!”(Melty)

Wha-

“You bastard!” (Naofumi)

“Ahahahahaha! You won’t get aith trying to push all the troublesome stuff onto me!” (Melty)

“I don’t want it even if it kills me! Hurry up and retract it!” (Naofumi)

“As if I would! This is an imperial command! Oh, I’ll add on some more” (Melty)

Oh God!

The allied forces representatives begin clapping their hands

Why is it? She’s acting so lax, and taking on a childish attitude, but no one tries to caution her!

“Then shall I award so this war to Iwatani-dono? Currently, with thea bit of trouble, but you should be able to levy a tax of some sort” (Trash)

From the Shadows, Trash appears with a iven to me

Status is status, but this is quite a bit of land

If I did end up staying in this world, I think I would be able to play around for the next 100 years with this much

“Don’t proceed the conversation without me!” (Naofumi)

“But Iwatani-dono, it is a fact that your efforts led us to victory in the war If I do not award you with some form of reward, my country’s honor will be affected” (Trash)

“Trash!+ That goes for you as well!” (Naofumi)

In fact, the biggest contributor should be him

Without holding any heroic title, he commanded the battlefield

“I merely acted as a representative of this country My role hasn’t changed before, or now” (Trash)

Trash’s standing is a fact, and he’s the next uess he’s soer

But I’m still not satisfied with this

“There are plenty of things I have for you to do, Archduke Naofumi!” (Melty)
