1057 410, Moved Tanut

Alec stops by their digging cabin with him. I know who else's cabin is.

"Get out of my way. How's it going?

"Oh Demon King. I'm sorry about everything. We're all conscious!

"What do you mean, no potions, no ingredients, no problems?

"Ooh. All you have to do is get some rest. That was really helpful. Whoa, you guys."

"Thanks for the help! Thanks!"

"I owe you! That's great!

"Oh, my God! Demon King is awesome!

"I will not forget this grace. No wonder."

"Oops. When you're slowly curing. This guy's in for a visit.

Then one oak. It's just a feeling.

"Not again. The service is too good. Thanks."

Is this how the lord feels? It's like if the people were scratched, they'd want to help you.

It's because they're the ones stomping in such a shitty place. I don't want you to die.

Come on, let's go home, too.

Speaking of which, this is a mansion, right? Guestrooms are quite spare. Sometimes they attract guests for how much a night as an inn. We haven't been home for a while, anyway. Compared to a digging cabin, it's a difference between cloud mud. If you stay here, you won't be able to go home to the digging cabin anymore. Hehe.

After dinner prepared by Alec, it's a little archaic. It's dark out there, the only archery I can do because it's in there... is my heart's eye.

I still don't have a mind and eye. Steed, I don't think I can compare to you anymore. That's why you can't do nothing.

Ask Alec to shoot an ice bullet outside. Of course he was blindfolded. Well, it's dark outside, so there's not much point in blindfolding.

"All right, shall we get this far? Thanks."

Ah, that hurts. My upper body is naked, so I'm all injured. Ha...

"You're welcome. It's a good experience to shoot in invisibly.

Alec has recently been able to use 'Dark Vision'. But you're shooting ice bullets at me without it. I'm pretty sure we're good archers.

Thus the demons are exorcised in the woods by day. Auditorium in the evening. At night, the two of us did all we could with our carnal desires.

Such winter holidays are finally coming to an end. Alec starts school the day after tomorrow.

Therefore, my plans for today are to go home to Kutanutsu and each stay overnight at my parents' house. I don't mind either, but Alec will refrain from graduating and talking to his mother-in-law.

Let's leave paradise. It was quite a hard but enjoyable winter break. I had a few banquets with the adventurers. I also played a game this time that made me praise the real Alec. Alec didn't seem to like it, but I had fun.

After noon. We arrived in Kutanutsu. The city is kind of in a hurry. Will you say that you are vibrant?

"I'll send Alec first. I'd like to say hello to your mother-in-law, too.

"Yeah, thanks. I wonder when I'll be home.

But when I visit, there are just two maids and no one else. The gatekeeper, the escort, and the chef, Mattressia. If you listen to me in detail, they're almost totally mobilizing personnel from all over Kutanutsu to build the harbor and the streets there. That it is no exception in the depths of the advanced aristocratic Alexandre family. Looks like the deputy is pretty serious. What do you mean, even your mother?

They're not coming home for the time being, so I decided to just leave a letter and go to my house for the two of us.

"I'm home.

"Sorry to bother you.

"Puypuy."

Are you away? Then let's go to the dojo.

I'm not here either. Seriously, is it a total mobilization? At this point, Brother Odie and Marie go, too. Right. I should help as a Kutanutsu people, but I can't do it today and tomorrow. Let's just face the guild and see what's going on.

The Alliance is somewhat busy. That's right. I guess it's full of work. Um, you don't want to line up. Does anybody have a face...

"Hmm? Aren't you the Demon King?

Who knows me? I just look more familiar... Ah, a paradise dweller!

"Oh, it's been a while. Were you back this way? Er... sure..."

"It's Gramsmith from Madlix. I took care of you in paradise."

"Ah yes! You're a sixth star! Just fine. No, why don't we talk over there while we drink? I want to hear that.

"Fine. Go ahead and take your seats. I'll tell the members."

"Oh, I'm sorry.

All right. Now you know what's going on.

"What would Alec drink? I guess I'm a milkshake. [M]

"I'll do that, too. Milk sakes here are surprisingly delicious, aren't they?

"Puypuy."

Even if I do. Ko is alcoholic, isn't he?

Glamsmith, the adventurer earlier, arrived less than three minutes later.

"You kept me waiting. What do you want to hear?

"It's the current situation of Kutanutsu. Pretty busy, huh? What's going on?

"Uh, this guy..."

Hmm. Apparently the deputy is still pretty unscrupulous.

First, the construction of a port in the Northeast, Nord Sea, of Kutanut. With that, cobblestone street maintenance from Kutanut to that point. Besides, he said he has streets there so that he can get to the harbor from Ballantown and Solsalier. Rumor has it that Kutanut's budget is not enough at all, so the deputy's personal belongings are already empty. On the contrary, you think you're letting your parents even invest in you? My parents, the Ajani family, would be in the middle of a prime minister fight at the Ajani family.

On the contrary, labour was imposed on slaves, civilians and nobles alike. They need to be engaged for at least a month. They say you're exempt when you pay taxes, but that amount is one hundred pieces of gold per person. It's a pretty good deal considering the level at which riots happen but civilians work for a month and are exempt from paying a hundred gold coins.

They say some houses were dropped into slavery by a whole family of senior nobles who did not obey either. You still mean the deputy.

What about adventurers?

I can't possibly force a Kutanutu adventurer to obey or anything. Moreover, the enclosure of leading adventurers has begun in the territorial capital. Because of Damian...

What a bit of a privilege for adventurers over the seventh star, they say. I need to get taxes that should be deducted if I receive a request related to this case. On the contrary, in the case of unrelated requests, the tax seems to have tripled. With regard to the eighth star and below, it appears that they have the same obligation of servitude as civilians. What happens in my case? Well, I intend to cooperate voluntarily from the day after tomorrow. I don't hate deputies or kings.

"What is this? The streets stretching north haven't moved yet?

"Uh, you're still in the investigation phase. You're just not gonna get your hands on it, are you?

Streets through the west side of the Herdeza Desert to the north. Once it's done, the entry into the demonic realm is going to explode. There are likely to be more casualties for that matter.

"I see. Very well. Thanks for taking the time. Now you can all drink.

Leave about three gold coins.

"Idiot, I don't want it. How much I thought I'd taken care of in paradise. I'll come back when this is over."

I see. Is that true too?

"Okay. Thanks. See you later.

"Hey, nice to meet you."

If the Alliance is in this crowd, we'll sell the material again. Well, you can sell it in the mainland. Let's just say I'm going home today.

Me and Alec spent this day at home. My parents, who have only stayed a few nights. It's just me, Alec and Koh. A normal house that felt very strange but not so big. This makes me look like I'm newlywed and have something to burn. It was a good night.
