Chapter 109: King Masatsugu’s military?expedition.
Translator: Mr.Nobody
I started preparing for a quick departure.
“What a touching scene this is. It’s like the King Masatsugu will lead an expedition himself!”
The butler Sebas was exaggerating.
Lucia, Elin, Shii, Silvy, Laara, Clarissa and Mira who were in the same room as us also nodded.
“Finally, Master himself will move. Perhaps, should I say that fate is moving?”
“All of the surviving members of the Elf people will follow Masatsugu-sama with pleasure!”
“The gods of the natural world will also become limbs of Masatsugu-san.”
“The guild will also support the savior Naomi-sama.”
“Naturally the demons have went past the long-standing relationship with humans and will help Masatsugu-dono!”
“The dwarfs will also make all kinds of arms for Masatsugu. No, we’ll make it as honor of the Dwarfs.”
“I’ll fight as Aruji-sama’s limbs. There’s no greater pleasure for a soldier other than that!”
And all of them said such things.
All the races were snarling at each other until now and they are trying to gather to me.
This is a historic, no, it’s an important “event” like a star.
In short, it’s a legend.
From now on, I will be at the center of the story that will be passed down to our descendants.
That’s why, I accepted their wild enthusiasm with calm. I am fate itself.
Naturally, I don’t want that. I don’t want to stand out, I’m from race that can slowly read by themselves.
I don’t even have the slightest to be the center of the world nor interest in it. Good grief, If I could give it away to somebody then I would like to do that.
Naturally, there are no such human beings. Since it has been passed to my place the world has not separated itself from me. The world would use all methods and invite me to the fate of the world.
Sigh, this world. A troublesome existence.
“Savior-sama, are you considering tactics?”
“No, I’m just thinking that helping the world is troublesome.”
“Don’t say that. There’s nobody to save the world other than Naomi Masatsugu!”
“Haha, don’t fret. My bad. Of course it’s like that. There’s nobody other than me who can bear such a role.”
“That is also the case.”
Silvy first blushed and, then she smiled like a flower.
Now the reason all 7 of them are here is because they said that they couldn’t be away from me even for an hour.
I informed them it was only several weeks but they disliked it and cried.
In that case, I said to resign from being a King and return immediately to being an orphanage director but this time the people from the castle cried to stop me.
Right now, parting with me is something like the country being ruined?
I want them to somehow preserve the national politics without me, but…
But, compared to the previous king I made the politics stable, risen up the economy and brought firm diplomatic relationships.
I didn’t do big things.
I just did things that obviously should’ve been done.
But, if the surrounding people speak…
“It’s difficult because we aren’t able to do naturally…”
Such things were heard.
Fuumu, is it like that? I don’t understand it well as I thought.
Well, with that being, they couldn’t help but entreaty me so much. So I continued being a King while reluctant about it.
But, the orphanage has priority. Compared to the boring work of a king the work of orphanage director is much more difficult and it’s worth doing.
So, as a compromise plan we’ve made a room for the Lunar orphanage in the castle. In that room everyone is awake. Well, Silvy is not strictly an orphan and before I noticed she rolled herself here and with a bright smile said “I won’t separate myself from Naomi-sama.”
“By the way, why do you all want to live in the castle?”
As I thought, are castles something to be yearned for? I feel like it’s something girls and princess would yearn for.
But, they looked at me for a long time and…
“Haa…”
They took a sigh like they were troubled heavily.
Good grief, what is wrong?
While having a conversation we were preparing as well.
Unexpected visitors appeared in our room.
“King Masatsugu! Why won’t you bring us with you?”
They were my classmates with moistened faces from crying.
Ezuka, Katsuragi, Yoshihara and most of my classmates were here.
Their expressions were a mixture of anger, sadness and regret.
“You people! Do you know that is the king’s room, you ruffians?
The chief butler Sebas is enraged.
But…
“Sebas, it’s okay.”
“But, King Masatsugu…”
“The king himself is going. And this military expedition will decide the fate of the world. Following me is basically the same as throwing themselves in legends. There’s no helping it, them idolizing me to the extent to follow.”
“King Masatsugu. You have such farsighted designs. This Sebas is ashamed of his lack of foresight. As expected, King Masatsugu.”
He said that and looked at me with respect.
Sigh, me saying the obvious thing is nothing noteworthy.
But, right now that’s irrelevant.
I have to reply to my classmates.
“Oi, what happened to all of you suddenly?”
“What or how doesn’t matter!”
Ezuka said so.
“That’s right! Why are you refusing us from going with you?”
Katsuragi hastily let her self in.
“I don’t care for it particularly! But why…”
Yoshihara also said that while having tears in her eyes.
That’s right, this time’s military expedition is only planned for me and the orphanage girls. That reason…
“I’m happy that you feel that way. I understand the feelings of wanting to go with me.”
“King Masatsugu… Then!”
“But, I’ll entrust the homefront to you guys.”
I said that sternly.
