Four days have passed since the Neutanikaze incident. When it comes to what happened in the last four days, the parents' workshop was suspended for several days (because the prowlers developed into off-site brawls and caused trouble around them), they moaned without being able to find where Tanikaze was trapped, and the chase of Blanca and Amur resumed.
Blanca was more severely tied than before, but Amur saw a gap and escaped the apartment in a winding state, cutting the rope with a stone that had fallen on the road. It should be noted that when Amur escaped, Blanca was taking a bath and it was an escape play that happened in just about five minutes.
Once Blanca taught that Amur was likely diving in the dungeon (seemingly really diving, but 'exploration' clouded the word because it kept it a secret) and also taught him where the Goblin's nest hole was, but has not come to discovery until today.
And earlier, Ted returned from the king's capital and brought back a reply from the king. Most of all, they didn't hand it over directly, it seems it was an exchange via Mr. Cliff, but this letter is more authentic than Mr. Cliff handed it over directly.
"Looks like the king's into Amy after all."
"Tenma, the way you put it, Alex's guy's a pervert... not a mistake, but he's a bad listener"
I dare to briefly explain what the letter says, "If something interesting is going to happen in the royal jurisdiction, I'll go for it! was."
"Sounds like him, but I'd definitely be able to stop him around. If that's the case, it's still a fool or a threesome to come."
Regardless, Master Ernest, Master Lyle should be quite busy, but besides being the most similar in character to the King, he's not as busy as the King, so he's going to come for some reason.
When I talked to Grandpa about that, the street outside was getting noisy somehow. My carriage is inside the apartment grounds, so there is a little distance from the street, but it may be unusual for me to say that I can hear the sawdust so far.
"Whew, Tenma... I have a bad feeling about this..."
"That's an odd encounter, Grandpa... most of all, I don't have a bad feeling, I'm sure..."
Zawatsuki is gradually approaching the apartment, and with that, multiple horse feet are being heard. Most importantly, because I know who that sawdust is in my Exploration.
"Mr. Tenma, I'm here. Please come out."
The voice you hear as you knock on the carriage door is that of a woman who sounds familiar.
"Are you here yet, Mr. Chris?
It was Mr. Chris, as expected, in front of the door. I don't have to use Exploration. You're a young woman and you don't hesitate to go so far because you have a limited number.
"Ted's guy... you're fucked"
That I arrived so early. Come with me to the vicinity of Seigen, and I guess Ted was the only one who got ahead of me in the right place. It's not that Ted is bad (the average person (Ted) couldn't have asked me to say no in the first place), but I was in the mood to say one of my grudges. Because the royalty who came to Seigen...
"Dear Maria, Tenma, there you are."
That's why. If it was the king or Lyle who came, I had nothing to worry about, but I get a little nervous when I'm in front of Maria, so this kind of surprise is bad for my heart.
"Thank you. Long time no see, Tenma. I hear you're still active. That's right, if you came to Wangdu, you should have shown your face."
I guess Maria says I'm the one collecting the Tanicase ingredients during this time. You seem a little angry.
"Hello, brother. And Solomon?"
"Don't say hello properly, Luna! Hello, Mr. Tenma, it's been a while."
It was Luna as usual and Tida scolding Luna like that who followed Maria out of the carriage. Luna was finding Solomon and storming after Tida scolded her and apologized. Solomon had gently escorted Luna's assault and had appropriately fled. Around not running away for real, I guess I enjoy being a Solomon.
"It's been a while. I'm sorry about that verse. I was in a hurry for a few minutes..."
We were in a real hurry, so we didn't have time by the royal castle and we didn't want to make any extra noise. Maria didn't pursue it any further either... especially since she seems to know the culprits of the second half.
I couldn't help but call Amy to the carriage to tell her more about what I wanted the king to ask, but at that time, there was an unexpected incident. That was something that not only me, grandpa, but also Maria didn't expect, and it was such a case that I had a feeling that a lot of hard things would happen in the future. What happened...
"Mr. Tenma, who is that girl?
Hi, it looks like Teeda fell in love with Amy at first sight. Pulling my sleeve as I dye my cheeks red, trying to get information on Amy. Maria the boulder seemed distracted by the appearance of Tida like this, and she didn't know how to react.
And Amy, who doesn't know what she was called for, was watching us with a decent face.
"Chris, take Tida to our carriage. If we keep this up, we're not gonna talk."
"Okay. Dear Tida, should we leave for a moment?
"Heh? Um, hey!
Mr. Chris pushed Teeda's back without question and took her outside the carriage. Tida had managed to step on it, but was unable to resist Mr. Chris' power on the boulder and was easily pushed outside.
"I can't believe we're talking about this. Though I was totally unexpected about Tida... so, Tenma. What does that kid have to do with anything?
I was surprised at Maria's gaze. Amy hid behind me, and there was something about Maria being a little depressed, but I didn't know what to say when I laughed, so I stuck around my flank and managed to bear it.
"Yeah, this kid says Amy, and she's the grandson of the landlord of this apartment. So, there's a lot going on, and it's like my goddaughter."
"Nice to meet you, Amy."
Then I told him what had happened so far and let Amy tame a rare demon on my whim, so when I told the royal family I wanted him to be my back shield, Maria was sighing with her head in her arms.
"Tenma, you are Ricardo's son and Merlin's grandson, after all. You two look just like each other... in a bad way..."
Maria was whining about that, but Grandpa, who had been quiet nearby, seemed so happy.
"Well, I don't mind being the back shield for that kid. In the first place, it happened in Seigen, so there's no problem in the sense of preventing trouble... but Tenma will certainly be regarded as belonging to our faction, okay?
"I don't mind...... or now, right? That."
At a time when the king and Lyle were not hesitant to visit Grandpa's mansion, it was also a matter of discussion among the inhabitants of the king's capital that I belonged to the royalty.
"So is that. Then there will be rumors that Tenma's godson is being assisted by the Grand Duke because it would be too much noise if he were a royal asylum... And now I'm interested."
and so on, and the fine conditions were determined. Note that Amy, who is at the heart of the story, doesn't seem to know exactly what's going on, so she'll need to tell you more later.
"That changes the story... Amy, are you interested in Wang Du's school?
Suddenly, Amy didn't seem to understand what Maria meant.
"If we're going to spread the word about the Grand Duke's asylum, it's time to get into school. There are a lot of good parents out there, so they can spread the word. Plus, students know a lot about tenmas, so they'll tell you they're eye-catching, and we're easy to move when something happens."
They're going to be halfway through school now, and the exams are going to be a little tough, but they're going to use the Grand Duke's power there to screw it. It is likely to be wrongful as you wish, but it seems to be common in the aristocratic world, and unless you are so retarded, you will pass. It should be noted that the most common reason for aristocrats to use their power to enroll them halfway through school is if a concealer is discovered. There are other cases where I have adopted a child, for reasons like Amy's being a minority, but they have precedents.
"So, how academic is Amy?
Once in this Seigen, there exists something like a school, but it is not as solid as a school in Wangdu, but enough to teach the basics. Hopefully, they'll teach you a little more of an upper level of study, but they don't have one in ten such students. It should be noted that Amy learns the basics at school and further teaches Tamer's Guild facades, so I think there is an average level of school, although on a personal level.
"Then you don't have a problem. And then there's Amy's own feelings, but I think you should talk to your parents. At least I'm not the one who decides."
Looking at Amy, who hasn't been able to talk about it, Maria seems to have decided to have Amy consult with her family once. I explained clearly to Amy (I may be able to enroll in Wang Du's school, but what do I do? like that), I told him to talk to his family and make up his mind. By the way, Amy seemed to think of Maria as a great aristocratic woman and didn't know she was a queen.
For the record, Ariel and Karina, who heard Maria's suggestion from Amy, apparently noticed Maria's identity immediately, and were coming to greet her with familiarity and shortness of breath. And after the discussion, Amy's admission to school was decided. Apparently, Maria's going to put Amy in school irrelevant to the results of the exam, and she's going to use my grandfather's name, but you don't mind, do you? He said. I was a little scared, so my grandfather and I nodded without a thing or two, and Tida was so happy to be back in the carriage that Luna didn't seem to know exactly what was going on.
The details will be discussed tomorrow, and Amy and the others went home.
"So, they had a lot going on, but what was it like?
Maria wanted to hear the story in Seigen, so in the middle of the request, it became a bicorn fight, and she told me that she had been defeated, but that Tanicase had been hit, and that when she went to a hierarchy in the lake to collect materials in the dungeon, she had fought the Octopus demon and that the demon had been certified as a new species. Dear Maria and Tida, Chris wanted to hear what he thought when he fought, but only Luna wanted to hear the taste of the bicorn and octopus he defeated.
"Just in time, and should we try it for lunch?
There was no opposition from everyone to my suggestion.
I haven't decided what to make, but only the ingredients, so I decided to make something that I could come up with.
"Is the octopus fried or takoyaki, as the bicorn is to be hamburger?
The bicorn was well decided, but the octopus got a little lost. However, at the end of the day, I realized that I didn't have enough certain definitive items, so I decided to fry them easily.
"I want to make a takoyaki, but I don't have a takoyaker, I don't know what else to do"
I didn't even have anything that was likely to replace the octopus grill, so I decided to fry the octopus dish, but it might be a little heavy for lunch if it was hamburgers and fried food. Therefore, the fried chicken taste is limited to salt and pepper, and the flavor is adjusted by having lemon used according to preference. Hamburg decided to use the lean part of the bicorn and the lean part of the white-haired buffalo to maximize the fat. To season, I used ginger squeeze juice in salt pepper and onions stir-fried in a few spices, making the shape smaller than the flat hand and thinner, so that I could make as much as possible as quickly as possible. The sauce is made from crushed sugar, fish soy, liquor and skinned tomatoes in a frying pan after baking, and it feels like adding it to your taste. After that, prepare the salad and the bread and you're done.
The food could be cooked together, so it wasn't that laborious, but it took longer than I thought because of the large number of people (three royal guards, including Chris).
The things I could do were first tasted (poisoned) by Chris, then left in front of Maria and the others. Maria's share and Chris's share to me and Grandpa were served on one plate each, but the Kingsguard's share was served together on a large plate and handed over. I don't think it's a very stained way to eat a Kingsguard with a cluttered platter and lots of people of noble origin, but we can't put everyone in the carriage in a boulder, and we can't let Maria and the others out, so we decided to ask the Kingsguards, except Chris, to take it up with us.
"It's delicious, this"
"I've never eaten anything so delicious."
"Get me some meat"
Maria was surprised but is eating elegantly. But eating hamburgers is surprisingly fast.
Tida was just as surprised as Maria was, but this one was eating slowly.
Luna...... is demanding a replacement for Hamburg as soon as possible while soiling around her mouth.
Although there are differences in how we all eat and how fast we eat, I think I really liked the taste of the hamburger. Ultimately, all the replacements and more prepared hamburgers were gone beautifully.
Deep-fried octopus took the form of being hidden in the shadow of a hamburger, but it tasted good and was rated easy to eat. It should be noted that Luna was the one who ate the hamburger the most and Chris was the next. Luna seems to be the type to eat intensively what she likes, and Chris moves a lot, so she eats for it.
On the contrary, the one who hasn't eaten the most was Teeda, and I was next. Tida, as opposed to Luna, is the kind of person who slowly tastes and eats what she likes, and I was up to everyone's demands for a replacement, so I just missed eating.
"Well, it's time for us to go back to the mansion."
Maria's mansion is the building the royal family uses when they come to Seigen. Although the building itself is a little smaller than Grandpa's mansion in the King's Capital because it is a building for royalty to use, even if there is not much opportunity to use it, the garden is large for that matter. This is because we need to be able to park escorts and invited aristocratic carriages in the garden. In some cases, they sometimes use it for emergency evacuation locations due to earthquakes, etc., and although there are fences, walls, moats, etc., flowers, etc., are not planted.
After dropping off Maria and the others, Amy and the others arrived as expected. Apparently, he really wants to hear about Wang Du's admission to school.
Therefore, after apologizing for taking the liberty of speaking at the outset, I decided to discuss the details. Well, to tell you the details, Maria said she was going to talk tomorrow, so I just answered what Amy and the others asked me.
What Amy and the others were worried about was the money (tuition), the house, the parents. It seems worrying to let the boulder make Amy live alone in the king's capital. I didn't want to worry about the school fees, but I decided to help, but I told him not to worry about the house and the parents.
First of all, regarding the house, but there are also student dormitories in the school, so if you have a royal recommendation, you can definitely go in, and in case you couldn't, you can go through Grandpa's mansion (then, you'll be asking Jeanne and Aura to take care of you), and you can introduce Uncle Mark. It's about my uncles, so they'll adore Amy just because she's my apprentice.
As far as parents are concerned, someone in the royal family (Maria or Ernesto expects to be the most powerful) will be the guardian than she took the story from Maria.
Talking about it, Amy and the others were grateful. At that time, I apologized that I would undoubtedly be involved in a power struggle, although I was told that it was now. Apparently, Amy got noticed from around the time I won the martial arts tournament, and several nobles have said they want to hire Amy. He said he refused to talk about it because he could see the aim on the boulder, but there could be enough nobility to say no at this rate, so he was going to ask the Marquis of Sammons if he could be the back shield before that with the Tamers Guild connection. So he said this story was a ship across the street.
Just looking at the backshield story, it also sounds like you took the Marquis Sammons lightly, but let Grandpa tell you that the faction is the same, and the Marquis Sammons and the Royal Family are good friends, so there's no problem. Ning Ro, if the Marquis Sammons hears this story, he'll work with the royal family and could even fit into Amy's guardian jointly.
"From the Marquis of Sammons, we can create a relationship with Tenma by helping Amy, and from the Royal Family, we can strengthen our cooperation with the Marquis family. It's a story that's gainful for both of us. Tenma should know her worth better."
When I concluded that way with my grandfather, Ariel and the others were nodding to agree. It should be noted that the next day it was found that there was nothing to worry about regarding the money. The reason for this is that in the future, they will twist tuition and living expenses (including pennies) in the form of selling the yarn that Ku-chan puts out to the royal family. However, because I don't know how much yarn of quality and quantity will come out, it will initially take the form of debt from the royal family (the joint guarantor on the paperwork is me), but if I enroll on the recommendation, there will be little tuition (depending on my grades, I will be fully - partially exempt), so if the yarn is picked at all, they will have no problem.
I made a lot of noise about Amy and her family, but eventually it seemed like it would go in a good direction, so it seemed reassuring to me. Incidentally, with regard to the other worries, fugitives (Amur) and trackers (Blanca), he said Blanca was likely to be caught in a few moments, so it seems only a matter of time before Amur is secured.
