Chapter 456: A day in the Sanctuary

I teleported to the Sanctuary with Sophia and Marnie.

Coming up from the room in the basement where Teleportation Gate is installed, we were greeted by the butler Jeeves, Mabel, and the other maids.Aall newest chapters on n.o./velbi/n/(.)com

「「Welcome back, Master.」」

「Yeah, thanks as always. Where is Princess Mimir?」

「I believe she is waiting for you, Master.」

「Gotcha. I’ll try visiting.」

Princess Mimir is probably worried, so I headed next door immediately.

Then I was let inside at once.

「Ah, he’s here, he’s here. Yahoo!」

「Good work.」

「My apologies for calling you here.」

When they’re bored out of their minds, Sylph and Undine enter Princess Mimir’s mansion, eating snacks and drinking tea there. And Princess Mimir was there, seemingly apologetic to me.

「Princess Mimir, you don’t have to be concerned about the matter with the knights of Yggurle Kingdom, Sophia also didn’t mind.」

If that wasn’t said properly, Sylph seemed like she would hand down severe punishment, so I took the initiative before Princess Mimir could apologize.

「I am unable to do as you have stated. The knights had witnessed it, and more than anything, the Wind Spirits even came to tell me. The fact that Spirits bear animosity towards that person means that this is a very serious matter to Yggurle Kingdom.」

「Yeah~ That child is no longer able to use Spirit Magic. I wonder if he would notice that he can no longer hear the voice of the Spirits.」

「Ahh, that did happen. About that, have they still not given up?」

「Takumi, you might not know it since you aren’t always in the Sanctuary, but they come periodically without giving up.」

「Haa~ they have so much free time.」

Most of them were pawns of Earl Hordia. Some among them were members of dark guilds that accepted requests from nobles of other companies and the special forces of Triaria Kingdom, but majority of them were hooligans from Yggurle Kingdom who took on dirty jobs requested by Earl Hordia, or his private army.

「Well, this time we’ll forgive you for that much. It was Sophia’s request.」

「Thank you, Sylph-sama.」

「On our side, I will make sure to advise father to be more cautious.」

「Is that okay?」

Sylph was persuaded into stopping at that for the judgment of the knight who disrespected Sophia. However, I think it would be important for Princess Mimir to give heed to the King.

「It will be alright. With this incident, we must change the perception towards Sophia-san. At this rate, the number of Elves who lose the divine protection of the Spirits would increase.」

Apparently, Princess Mimir was just as angry at the knight who said scornful words towards Sophia whom she gets along with.

In a huff, Princess Mimir said that she could not allow someone to insult a hero who saved many of her comrades just because Sophia fell into a cowardly trap during war then caught and turned into a war slave.

「Princess Mimir......」

Sophia, who was always dignified, was moved to tears.

Well, for the time being, this marks the end of today’s trouble...... or so I hope.
