Hmm. Is it morning already?

　I get out of bed. I'm stiff because I've been sleeping all the time lately.

　The reason why I've been sleeping around so much is because after the incident, I couldn't move my body and fell asleep.

　It's been two weeks since the incident at the palace that Hendrix caused.

　As I told you earlier, what I did for these two weeks was fall asleep.

　The reason was fatigue from overdoing the body granting and anemia from too much blood flowing.

　Me, Master and Merlin-san tried to go back to the royal palace after the fight was over, but I was too tired to move.
　That hadn't happened before, so why not!　I thought, but my master said it was because I exercised my physical body more than I was trained to do.

　It's true that I've used the Chaos Vortex body grant twice. I guess it's better that I didn't lose my mind due to lack of magic power.

　And the anemia is still there. I bled too much when I cut my arm and when he cut a wind hole in my stomach.

　As for the anemia, it seems that the water magic method can heal the wound, but it can't increase the blood.

　That left me bedridden for almost a week, and I used the rest of the week to exercise so I could move my body.

　When I returned to the palace after the battle was over, I was able to meet Alexia and the others, but they all panicked when they saw my injuries. Helen-san screamed, Ferris and Phelia and Krona started to cry when they woke up, Alexia was pissed off, and now Eris fainted.

　It was certainly a bad thing for Eris. He had seen his son's arm cut off a few hours ago and now he had a windfall in his son's stomach.

　After that, the windhole was healed by the court doctor Alexia had arranged for me, but needless to say, I was pissed off all day long by Elise when she woke up.

　It seems that the king and Zeke were also able to safely get to the magic circle that activates the advanced magic barrier in the center of the royal palace. It seems that you can choose whether to deploy this magical barrier throughout the entire city or only in the royal palace, depending on the amount of magic power you have, and later Zeke told me that this time he only deployed it in the royal palace.
　It seems to consume a great deal of magic power, but it doesn't allow any impact or magic to pass through. The king laughed at me and said it was useless this time, but that it didn't matter.

　The Beast King and Ferris and the others went back to the Beast Country Worst a week ago. It seems that their stay was originally about two weeks, and the period came while I was sleeping.

　I was sleeping in the mansion, and I was surprised that the Beast King and the others had come that far.

　The Beast King-sama...

That's my son (son-in-law)!

　I say, and Queen Ashley nods in agreement, and Prince Fergus

I'll play the next one for you.　Brother-in-law!

　I'm sure Ferris is going to be pissed off again!　And when I looked at Ferris, I saw that her face was red and misty.

　.........what's this?　Where's Ferris, the guy who was beating me up a week ago?

　Even as they talked about this, the Beast King and the others left. Finally, Ferris.

I'll be here in two years.

　I wonder what he meant by that, as his face turned red again?　I'll see you in a couple of years, right?　........I don't know.

　However, I'm curious about the fact that Zeke was grinning all the time. It looks like he was talking about something with the Beast King-sama as well.

　........Well, we'll find out in two years time.

　Two weeks had passed while all that was going on.

　Krona, of course, helped with nursing during that time, not to mention Chloe and even Phelia. And one more.

　Concon.

　There's a knock at the door. It's just coming. I answer it.

Oh, you're up. How are you feeling, Mr. Ray?

　And the one who came in was Merlin-san.

　The reason why Merlin-san is here is because he has resigned as the head of the kingdom's magic division. The reason, of course, is that the members of the magician's group found out that he has a curse.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time in the city.

　All of the soldiers in the palace knew about it immediately, and the other noblemen who didn't know about it were in an uproar.

　At the meeting after the incident was over, the subject came up, and Merlin-san, who was in attendance, seemed to have been told a lot of things. Zeke had also been present because he was involved, but he said it was already terrible.

　Not to mention the blame, get out of the kingdom now!　It seems that there are some noblemen who say things like, "You should be a slave," or "You should pay reparations for cheating yourself," or "You should be a slave," which is a foolish thing for a nobleman to say.

　Others criticized the king, the vizier and the leader of the Gein Konoe Guard for hiding the fact that they had a curse. It seems that this was mostly a faction of the king's brother.

　Well, Zeke said that the master who was participating in this lost his temper and they all went silent.

　Since it was related to this battle, Master was of course involved in it. Basically, he doesn't attend meetings, so he didn't say anything this time either, but it seems he couldn't miss out on what Merlin-san had to say.

　Well, it's only natural that it was my master who brought me to the Nanor Kingdom for Merlin-san's sake.

　However, since it was true that he was hiding it, the king instructed the head of the magic division to resign as a pretext, and Merlin-san agreed to it. Just because the color of his eyes was a little different, why?　But I guess the roots are that deep. And I'm sure Mr. Merlin himself wouldn't be comfortable staying there either.

　And then, Master and Zeke brought Merlin-san, who had nowhere to go, to the mansion. They haven't decided what they're going to do in the future, but for now, they plan to stay in the mansion.

　And I've been asked to take off my hood only in the mansion. The reason for this is because I thought it would be a shame to hide my beautiful face behind my beautiful eyes. Besides, one reason is that no one in the Lanwalker family cared about curses.

　We're partly because of our land, and if you're good enough, anyone can come to us!　And it was like. Marco was the only one who cared, but Zeke kept him quiet.

　I was in a hurry when I told Merlin about it and he started crying. I can't tell you how many times I thought about hitting Zeke's grinning face at that moment.

'Mr. Ray?　What's going on?

　'Oops, I was thinking and I worried Mr. Merlin.

'No, it's nothing. Let's go.

Yeah.

　Merlin-san takes care of me in many ways while I'm at the mansion, since I've been asleep, and he takes care of me in many ways. I also think it's cute when I see Krona getting rivalry from that.

　........I just wanted her to wipe me down when I couldn't move, because I couldn't take a bath, but I wanted the two of us to stop competing for that job. Mr. Merlin was red in the face, too, and he was fighting with Crona. Eventually, though, Chloe had to wipe it off.

'It's the day we all go home, isn't it?'

Yeah.

Don't you miss me?

I'm going to miss that, but it was my decision.

Yeah. You know. I need to talk to you about the future, Ray.

'Oh!　So you've decided what to do!

Yes. I think I'm going to follow the Lanwalker frontier county.

'What?　Is that so?

I was wondering what I should do next, when the Frontier Count asked me to come to his estate. The job is to train the Lanwalker family's magicians and teach Fee-chan magic. My job was to train the family's magic team and teach Fee-chan magic. I'm the head of the royal court, and no one knows that I'm the head of the magic corps.

　I see. It's certainly better than staying in King's Landing.

''I'll miss that.

Thank you for thinking that.

　The two of us were talking as we headed to the diner.

Good morning, Ray.

Oh, good morning, Ray.

　Everyone was already assembled.

'Good morning, Father, Mother and Eliza, Mother. Brother Marco, Brother Won't. Good morning, Phelia, Chloe and Krona.

Good morning, Master Ray.

"...and...

　Filia and Krona are clearly depressed. I guess it can't be helped since we won't be able to see them for the time being.

'Father, so soon today?

Yeah, I think I'll be over soon as we've finished eating, since I've been out of territory for nearly a month. I'm sorry for Eileen and the others.

　While we were talking about this, the meal was over and it was time to say goodbye.

Eliza. I'm sure you'll be able to take care of the house again. You can come to the estate any time you want.

'Yes. The kids are getting out of hand, so maybe it's time to go.

　Then they kiss. Beside them, Ellis is spitting a curse.

'Marco, you know if you weren't skinny the next time you saw me, right?'

Yes, Father!

'Won't you keep an eye on me, Won't you? If you keep eating sweets all the time, I can attack you with water magic.

All right, Father. Leave it to me.

And Ray.

Yes, Father.

A lot of things are going to happen to you in the future, but no matter what, we're going to help you. Don't keep it to yourself, but don't worry, we'll be there for you. It'll take some time, but I'll come to you as soon as I can. Well, you have a fiancée, so you'll be okay.

　So says Zeke, laughing.

　

''Next time I see you, I'm going to punch you in the face with my strength, not by surprise.

　I said with a grin on my face.

'You said it, you bastard. Well, I'm looking forward to it.

　And me and Zeke with our fists together.

'Ray. Part of me gave up because I didn't say much and he didn't listen to me, but don't just take it easy. You're my little boy.

　Ellis says and hugs me.

'I'll do my best, mother. Take care of yourself, mother.

　and

'Don't cry so much, Phelia and Krona. This doesn't mean you won't see them again.

But, but, oh, yikes!

Rayshama~!

　And they hug each other.

'Come on, let's see the two of you smile, okay?

Yes!

Okay, okay!

　Then Phelia and Krona smile at me. Yeah, they're cute.

''I knew you two were cute when you smiled.

Brother!

Rayshama~!

　It's okay. I'll give you a pat on the head.

You take care of Chloe.

Yes, I'll take care of it, Mr. Ray.

　Chloe says and bows.

　Finally.

'Good luck with the territory, Mr. Merlin.

Yes, I'm going to be strong enough to stand alongside you, Ray.

'Yes, I'm looking forward to it!

　And then this time came.

'Come on, the carriage is here, let's get in.

　He took his turn to ride, starting with Zeke.

'Okay, Ray. Take care and hang in there!

You can't just push yourself!

"Brother!　Ehhh!

　Ehhh!

　That's how I left my family.

　I'll have to grow up before I see them again.
