99 - Episode 2 Location of Yume

While I was praising Ellie for successfully bringing back the Queen Elf Kingdom and even bringing back new information, I receive an urgent call from May with a telephonic message.

The content of the message was that she had found out the whereabouts of my sister Yume, one of the family members I had been searching for.

The content of the telegram instantly erased the fall of the Queen Elf Kingdom and the new information about "Master", and I involuntarily turned my voice inside out and said, "BUHHH!　They've found the yume! I was so astonished.

May rushed to the Oval Office and gave detailed information.

"...... Yume is surrounded by the Human Kingdom?"

More precisely, it appears that she is working as an apprentice maid."

Ellie, who was present at May's report, is killed.

She said, "How can you let the sister princess of the great God of Light work as an apprentice maid? ......!　It's beyond disrespectful!　No matter how human they are, they should be made to pay for their sins with their lives."

I'm not done debriefing you yet, Ellie. Quiet, please."

I'm sorry!

May's report is interrupted, and my voice raspy with irritation.

Ellie nods as she is scolded by her master, a complete turnaround from her angry, murderous appearance.

Normally I would follow up with her, but I don't have time for that and turn my attention to May's story.

She understands that he wants to continue the conversation and gives priority to the report.

Lilith, the first princess of the Kingdom of Humans, found Yume-sama collapsed while traveling in a carriage in the capital. She was badly wounded and used a recovery potion, thanks to which she seems to have escaped with her life. The princess is said to be energetic in other charitable activities such as soup kitchens at her own expense and to have a strong sense of justice. She is called "the saint of the race (human)" by some. She hired Yume-sama as an apprentice maid not only to make her pay for the potion, but also to protect her who has nowhere else to go.

I was looking for information on Yume and Nii-chan in one way or another.

Since the investigation had focused on the orphanage and the slavers, the apprentice maid of the royal family was apparently a blind spot and was discovered too late.

I ask Mei a question.

Not that I doubt it, but are you sure the girl is really Yume?

Yes, they said the features match."

'But the princess protected you in the racial (human) kingdom capital, right?　You can see how far from my hometown I am at .......　If I traveled normally it would take me over a month by carriage."

I am sorry. I am not familiar with that area."

May uttered an apologetic apology.

If Yume is safe and alive, there is no problem, but ...... how did he travel to the racial (human) kingdom capital?

Where's Nii-chan?"　Not with Yume?"

The brother has not been confirmed. Only Yume-sama has.

I thought that the two of them had escaped safely from their attacked hometown, but the fact that only one Yume has been found suggests that they were separated or, worse, dead on the way?

If we could talk to Yume face to face, we would know a lot more.

Thank you for your report, Mei. I'm really glad to know that Yume is safe and I know where he is. I'm glad to know that Yume is safe and where he is, and of course we should have someone with a high level of secrecy protect him right away.

If so, please leave that role to me!

Ellie, who was scolded by me, raises her hand as if to clear her name.

Mei gave her her opinion.

Ellie needs to stay on to manage the "Giant Tower," build a living environment for the humans who have gathered around it, and to serve as a stern reminder to the fallen Elven Queen State.

Niggity-niggity, sir.

May's point is a good one, so Ellie cannot refute it and voices her objections.

In fact, Ellie has a role to play as the "Witch of the Giant Tower.

She is in the process of freeing human slaves from the Queen Elf Kingdom and building a living area around the "Giant Tower.

No matter how much "SSR, transition" is there, we cannot have Ellie move lightly.

Considering the certainty of the situation, I was hoping you would let me go."

I feel safe with Mei," he said. Take care of my sister ...... Yume."

I will take you to Master Wright on my maid's way, I promise!"

Me and May look at each other.

She's in good hands.

The only problem is how to bring Yume back. ......

We can't just break into the castle and force our way home.

The other party used potions, hired us and protected us. We can't do anything out of courtesy to return the favor.

I also want to see with my own eyes if it is really Yume himself.

Ellie raised her hand again at this thought.

If so, how about requesting the Human Kingdom through the Queen Elf Kingdom to come and inspect the "Giant Tower"?

The "Humanists" have declared their "absolute independence" and are in the process of actually gathering racial slaves around the "Giant Tower", freeing them, and preparing them for a better living environment.

It is not out of line for the Human Kingdom to come to inspect whether they are treating the slaves humanely or not.

Even though they have bowed the knee to us, the Queen Elf Kingdom still has authority. We left it uncolonized in order to take advantage of that authority, and we would like you to work here for us. The Queen Elf Nation will never refuse to allow the First Princess, who is so passionate about humanitarian aid, to visit us.

If we also inform them that we will pay for their transportation and stay, guarantee their safety, and welcome them, there will be no reason for them to reject us.

We should welcome the first princess, who is enthusiastic about humanitarian aid, and ask her to accompany her younger sister, Yume.

Then we can see her face to face and take her back to "Nabu" as it is.

I praised Ellie with a smile for her clever idea.

I smiled and praised Ellie's brilliant idea.　Great idea!　Can you please implement this right away?"

Nngh!　Of course!　I will immediately ride to the Queen Elf Kingdom to process your request!"

She was so pleased with my praise that she shook with joy and left the office.

Ellie heads to the Queen Elf Kingdom as the "Witch of the Giant Tower" to issue a "Request for Inspection of the First Princess of the Kingdom of the Races.

The remainder of the party, Mei and I, had a detailed discussion about how I could directly check on my sister Yume, and how I could immediately take her back to the "abyss" if she was the real Yume.
