Chapter 114 (2/2)

Mitsuha: ”Ah, we are also together with her.”

Colette-chan and I rushed into the room after Sabine-chan to meet the surprised king.

King: ”Viscount Yamano! What happened to the delegation and Earl Covemainne!?”

Mitsuha: ”Ah, we're the only ones who returned first. If we went alongside the main party, it will take a long time to come back home…”

King: “Ah… Speaking of which, the Viscount has 『Bigu Lorrey』 if I recall? I will pay back all the necessary expense that you had spent…”

Mitsuha: “Oh, that, umm… ahaha​​…”

Yes, Big Lorry was quite expensive, so I billed it separately as a necessary expense from my part. Because I bought it on Earth, the exchange rate will also be quite expensive. Hence, the Big Lorry is explained in some detail.

And the king couldn't oppose as it's for Sabine's safety and living environment.

King: “So you disregard all of the reception on the way home, huh…? The people who regretted on belittling the Viscount before would have probably waited to make it a good experience for you on your way home…”

Mitsuha: ”Well, I told you that that's the reason why force our way through!”

The king gave a bitter smile as if saying that he already knows at least that much.

Huh? But, the king was surprised to see us, so that means he hasn't received any reports from the Earl yet?

There's no reason to attack the delegations that will return after finishing their roles, and in the unlikely event, they will make an urgent contact. The person in charge is always stuck to the radio in the Royal Palace…rather, in Sabine-chan's room, and no matter how suddenly it got attacked, it won't be something like a rocket was shot from a long distance, so there will be enough time to make a contact as they will sight the enemy first. Then that means…

Maybe they haven't given up hope that they will still be a able to catch up and meet us somewhere in some city and think that we continue to sightseeing here and there on our way back while staying at some place for a few days. That's why, they didn't report that we completely separated from them along the way?

Sorry, that possibility is zero.

Mitsuha: ”Your Majesty, when you get in touch with them, please let them know that we are already in the Royal Capital.”

Yup, I will feel guilty if there's something happened to the horse if they still hold that extra expectation and keep trying to catch up.

……Yes, to the horse.

Ah, I have to go and see Silver who I have left to someone's care. As one would expect, it would take a long time, so I left him at a stable in a ranch instead of the orphanage and he's probably lonely right now. Though, the carriage itself is kept at the orphanage. At any rate, they are probably polishing it every single day… If you overdo it, it will worn down easily!

(TL Note: I legit can't remember this “Silver” horse…. Care to enlighten me…?) Alright, because it's troublesome, let's make Sabine-chan be in charge to receive the report to the king.

Every important things will be reported properly over the radio, and even if she's an active and cheery girl, Sabine-chan is still 10 years old. So, she needs to be with her parents and sibling after a long time, right?

And so, we left from the Royal Palace, leaving Sabine-chan, and went to Colette-chan's village.
