Chapter 28-2

The palace, the royal office building.

A woman with black hair absentmindedly flipped through some documents.

She needed to distinguish which ones required the kings seal and which ones didnt.

Of course, she could just tear up any document that was stamped incorrectly, but it would be harder to fix the problem once it had progressed.

Thats why it was better to check everything carefully now and concentrate on her work to avoid making any mistakes.

I thought finally becoming the king would make me feel like Ive accomplished somethingnove(l)bi(n.)com

Brandis Setve Endroden, the 17th king of the Alain Kingdom, sighed and looked away.

She always felt this way, that administrative work didnt suit her personality.

She would be satisfied just killing monsters with her sword, but she had never been on the battlefield since becoming king.

She only felt resentment towards her past self who had wanted to become a king.

Its boring My body is restless

Brandis put down the documents and leaned her neck against the back of the chair.

If she could hear some interesting rumors or stories, she might be able to enjoy herself a little more.

Lately, her monotonous routine had made her even more obsessed with seeking something different.

If only someone brought me some interesting news

Just then, she heard a knock on the door from outside.

The woman who always escorted her entered the royal office building.

Your Majesty the King, I would like to report.

If the commander of the Royal Knights says so, there must be a reason, right?

Brandis showed interest with her eyes sparkling.

There were few times when the commander of the Royal Knights evaluated someone as being of a high level compared to other knights.

She just waited for people to come to her and ask for her opinion on who should be admitted to the Royal Knights.

Yes, Your Majesty. It is said that the youngest son of Marquis Laird used sword skills.

Is that true?

Yes, Your Majesty. The capital defense force conducted a re-investigation, and the Duke Adelairas escort knights testified.

I can hardly believe it. There arent many people who can use a sword skills. How old is the youngest son?

He turned 19 this year.

Hahaha! I didnt hear wrong, did I?

No, Your Majesty.

I have met many knights so far, but I have never seen a knight who used a sword at the age of 19. What about Commander of the royal knights?

I have never seen one either.

When Glenone first received the report, she was somewhat surprised.

She couldnt believe it, and wondered if the capital defense force had made a mistake.

Thats why she demanded a review, but each time she received the same information.

If that report is true shouldnt we bring him into the royal knights? I want to bring him here, even if I have to use the Kings seal.

(TL: I was thinking of using Queen instead but in Raw It was writeen as a King so I followed the original.)
