Apparently, the king is very busy right now and has been waiting in his room for quite some time, unlike the last time when he came to report the name of the clan.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems that he is listening to the report of the request that was submitted through the Adventurers' Guild.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I couldn't get him to tell me the details of the request, but it seems to have taken him this long.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They must be having an important discussion.

I remember Aisha also said that she had received a request from the royal family when she was an adventurer.

As I was sitting in my chair thinking about such trivial matters, I heard a knock at the door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah, finally? Just as I sat up, the door opened quietly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And the two people who entered the room were not the maids I had expected, but Sylphy and Airy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah, it seems they were the quicker ones.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Master, I'm home. By the looks of it, you haven't met your father yet, have you? Well, I guess Father's busy with everything, huh?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, there was a request I submitted to the Adventurers' Guild, and I think he is listening to the report.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I told Sylphy exactly what the maid had told me about the reason for the delay in the audience with the king, she frowned and suddenly let out a loud voice.

"...... What? The guild says it's a report from the guild!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What the hell is going on? I asked her, and she told me what she had to say.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She told me that there was a possibility that the Majin Nation had launched a war of aggression against other countries.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is a ridiculous rumor, but if it is true, it would be a terrible thing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In order to confirm whether the rumor is true or not, the government had sent a request to the Adventurers' Guild.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This request was made around the time Sylphy decided to marry me and returned to the capital, so it has been quite some time since the request was made.

......The demon kingdom is such a faraway place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Depending on the situation, we may have to do something about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh? Wait, ...... invasion of the Majin Nation? Hmm? I think I heard those words somewhere: .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah! I remember! That's right! You mean that time!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I was flying on Lord Jormungandr's back toward the "prison labyrinth," Lord Jormungandr said something like that!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You actually saw a town that was being invaded and nearly destroyed!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Sylphy! That story is true! Jormungand-sama told me that there is a new king in the land of the Wizards!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What? Is it true, sir?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sure of it! I saw it too, the burning city, the piles of corpses, the orcs and other demons. ...... It was a hellish scene."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sylphy is surprised to hear the unexpected report from her husband.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Considering the timing of the request to the guild, it is clear that the land of the devils itself is a considerable distance from the kingdom of August, where we live.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In fact, I remember that it took us quite a while to travel on the back of Jormungandr, who flies at high speed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In other words, it is that far away from us that we are not a direct threat at the moment. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

While Sylphy and I were talking about this, we heard a knock at the door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mine, Your Majesty the King is waiting for you, please come this way. ...... Oh, no? The princesses are here, too?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The maid looks a little surprised to see Sylphy and Airy, who were not there before, but she quickly recovers from her surprise.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, she is a very skillful maid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well then, let's go. Are you coming with us, princesses?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, of course.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Of course!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

After hearing the answer of the double princesses Sylphy and Airy (Sylphy is an ex-princess), she said, "Well, shall we come with you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I had a waffle on my head, and Coo floated on top of Sylphy's shoulder and stuck to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then Airy's eyes widened and she screamed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Oh, sister...... what is that pink girl on your shoulder?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Airy pointed at Coo and asked Sylphy fearfully.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm? Ah, I am Coo, daughter of the divine beast Master Ketos."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ketos-sama?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, that's the reaction I expected. ...... This is going to be a similar reaction from the King and his brother-in-law.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think it's a natural reaction when the whale race is unfamiliar to you and you are the daughter of a divine beast. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Coo, who is happy to hear that she is being talked about, is wagging her tail.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently, he is quite happy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Cu-cu-cu-cu!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Coo then squeals a greeting to Airy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... what are you saying?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"<>"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I tell her that, she smiles happily and says, "My pleasure! He returns the greeting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Can't you talk to Coo, sister?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, me and Aisha haven't met Master Ketos."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

While Airy and Sylphy were talking like that, the maid had completely disappeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The maid is gone! Let's hurry."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I called out to them and walked to the door a little earlier, and they both followed me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I left the room, I looked ahead and saw the maid waiting for me a little further ahead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She said, "I am very sorry for interrupting your pleasant conversation.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The maid bowed deeply to us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The maid quickly went on her way and I apologized to both of us for being late, and we went to the King's waiting office again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Come in, come in.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I knocked on the door and heard my brother-in-law's voice coming from inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I do as I'm told, open the door, and enter to be greeted by the king, my brother-in-law, and the prime minister, Mr. Morgue.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long, I have an urgent matter to attend to. I'm sorry."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When the king says so, before I can reply, Sylphy speaks up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... Father, is this urgent matter related to the Fiendish Nation?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hearing Sylphy's voice, the king, the brother-in-law, and the Prime Minister Morgue all looked nervous.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......Yes, that's right."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see,...... I have just learned that our master has some very good information."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What! Mine? What the hell is this "promising information"?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I report to Sylphy about my exchange with Mr. Jormungandr and what I have actually seen with my own eyes in the town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I proceeded, I could see the faces of the three of them becoming increasingly clouded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... I see...Jormungand-sama told you so...? Then I am sure of it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's all the King had to say, and the room fell silent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then, after a while, the King spoke again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Let's talk about it again, but what's your business here?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You don't mean to say that Sylphy just found out about this, that this is not what you want to talk about?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Perhaps the king was concerned about me, and asked me this in a very cheerful voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I will take advantage of his intention and speak cheerfully.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't talk about specifics with Prime Minister Morgue, though ...... he is here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

After glancing at Mr. Morgue, I report.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ah, yes. I completely forgot. I've just come to report that I've completed what you asked me to do the other day.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What! You really finished it! Way to go, Mine!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thus, the topic of conversation turned to the moving door I had built.
