CH 33

It was around 3:00 when I returned to the fortress from my walk in the forest.

“In order to send packages from the frontier to the Seiran Kingdom, you need permission from my uncle, Commander Gilbert. I’ll get your permission, so if you have anything to send other than monster meat, you should prepare it. I’m going to finish my business.”

“Thank you.”

Once Prince Graces sent me to the room, he immediately left.

“Your Highness, I can smell the monster. First of all, take a bath.”

I was washed more carefully than usual, and I floated the rose petals that Fermes had given me in the bathtub.

“Did I smell like that?”

“Yes, but not as much as His Highness Gresis. Her Highness always has a faintly pleasant scent, which made me feel even more uncomfortable.”

I didn’t realize it, but I could understand that it was quite uncomfortable.

After finishing the bath, I immediately started preparing the package.

“First of all, write a letter to my brother, Bane’s recipe, and yes, the rose petals I got from Fermes…”

Mai, the maid, has prepared all my luggage, so it seems that she can immediately find out what is where.

Hearing my soliloquy, she put the letter paper she had prepared in advance on the table and laid out the recipe and rose petals next to it.

When I finished writing the letter to my brother, His Highness Gresis returned with a wooden box.

It seems that he went to the public bath, and he smells like soap.

Inside the box was a tightly wrapped mass.

It must be the meat of that monster.

“It’s been thoroughly drained of blood and has no odor. I’m sure they can eat it deliciously in the Seiran Kingdom. If they’re willing to eat it, that’s another story.”

I put the letter, the recipe Bane gave me, and the small bag containing the dried rose petals into the wooden box while assuring to His Highness Gresis.

Please convey my thoughts to my brother.

I hoped so.
