CHAPTER 306 – A DISPOSABLE POSITION, AN INDISPOSABLE POSITION

In Mercouri’s royal capital.

After warping to the palace, I caught one maid that passed by just in time and asked.

「Do you know where Iris is?」

「Princess must be in her office. I believe that the meeting has just ended」

「Alright」

I nodded and the maid left after bowing.

I walked towards Iris’s office.

『This is quite ridiculous』

「Hm?」

『Your attitude right now. You just asked a servant of the palace, asked her where their princess is. You didn’t even call their princess with an honorary word』

「I’ve met that maid several times. She’s a maid that knows me and Iris」

『Hmm, I see. If only you’d use that good memory with men』

「I’m trying to, even though I’m like this」

『Kukuku, I am quite curious on how you remember men when you were still in your previous world』

I walked along the corridors of the palace while chatting with the teasing Eleanor.

After a while, we arrived at Iris’s office. I saw plenty of officials and public servants come out.

Those guys glanced at me, then continued on their own businesses.

『And so? What about that?』

「What do you mean?」

『Do you know any of them?』

「……nope」

『Fortis was there though』

「Who’s that?」

『Kukuku, well, it’s a man』

I know that, but it’s just annoying, so I didn’t refute.

Since Eleanor spoke like that, it’s probably someone I’ve met somewhere. But it’s only tiring remembering men, there’s nothing good coming from it, so I just let it go.

More importantly, almost everyone left Iris’s office, and I can only feel one presence from inside, so I entered.

「Iris」

「Kakeru!」

Iris ran up to me with a smile as if a flower has bloomed.

One of Teresia’s Twin Flowers, Iris Teresia Mercouri.

She has a brighter and more impulsive personality compared to her sister Helene, and she’s a cute woman.

「What’s the matter, Kakeru? Do you need something from me?」

「Yeah, I came to see you」

「A-Are you speaking of……uhm, you know……」

Iris said while looking up at me and fidgeting.

“That would be for later,” I thought and took out an envelope.

「I came to give this to you」

「Eh? Ah! Okay」

Iris looked like it was not what she expected. She pouted her lips and sulked.

But, as soon as she received the envelope, her expression changed.

She returned to one of Teresia’s Twin Flowers from being a lovely girl.

「This seal……Kakeru, did you meet her?」

「Yeah. Dunamis Savum. I got it from her directly」

I flicked Eleanor who laughed “Kukuku” the instant I said that name and asked Iris.

「You knew her huh?」

「Yeah, after all, it’s not something that could be left alone」

「I see」

That’s true.
