Under Nayue Subaru's shocked expression, Zhou Fangwu dragged him back to the Earl's Mansion.
"Wu, can I invite you to come?"
As soon as he entered the door, he was called over by Ram.
She said to Zhou Fangwu: "Lord Roswaal and Mistress Emilia have something to ask you for."
"Um."
Zhou Fangwu frowned slightly, and nodded in response.
Before Subaru Natsuki could speak, Ram said, "Of course, Barus is coming too, and Lord Roswaal and Lord Emilia have also summoned you."
After speaking, Ram led the two of them to the reception room.
"Lord Roswaal, Lord Emilia, Wu and Barus have arrived."
"Oh, the two of you are finally here. I can't wait any longer."
Roswaal who heard the knock on the door saw Ram appearing with Zhou Fangwu and Natsuki Subaru, he was a little excited.
Of course, it is pretend.
He has always been very suitable for the term "clown", and this pretentious posture is also performed for himself.
Emilia was sitting very ladylikely opposite Roswaal, Parker was lying on her shoulder, and the two were whispering something.
But after seeing Nayue Subaru and Zhou Fangwu coming in, Emilia took the initiative to stop whispering in order to show courtesy.
"Yo, Emilia Tan! Here we come!"
Natsuki Subaru walked quickly to Emilia's side, trying to get close to her but was forced back a little by Parker's coercion.
Even though Parker beat Natsuki Subaru, it still hasn't forgiven Natsuki Subaru.
In order to hide his embarrassment, he immediately asked Roswaal: "So, dear Ros, what do you want us to do?"
"Subaru, Takeshi, let's do it first."
Emilia greeted the two of them, and after they sat down, she said, "Actually, there is something I want to tell you..."
"Going to the royal capital... right? I, too, will go together!"
Before Emilia could finish speaking, Natsuki Subaru said it first, and his abrupt sentence shattered the atmosphere of the reception room perfectly.
"Look—let's go."
"Yes…"
Roswaal looked at Subaru Natsuki with a smile on his face as if he knew Subaru Natsuki's choice a long time ago; Emilia covered her forehead in great distress, as if she was tired from a headache.
The reactions of the two formed a strong and stark contrast.
But in this way, they seem to understand each other very much.
Very weird.
Emilia sighed softly, and said, "Well... we didn't go to play. It's a very important call from the kingdom... yes, it's very important!"
Afraid that Natsuki Subaru would not know the seriousness of the matter, Emilia deliberately emphasized her tone, hoping that this would make him understand.
But actually.
If Subaru Natsuki could understand it so quickly, then he wouldn't be Subaru Natsuki.
"I know, I know! It's about Wang Xuan, right? I know about major events that shake the country! But..."
Natsuki Subaru replied loudly to express his understanding.
However, he begged again and said: "This is a request above this, please take me there! Please!"
He bent his knees and clasped his hands together, begging Emilia in a very begging manner.
Seeing his begging so hard, Emilia, who didn't know how to refuse, was once again caught in a tangle.
Ram and Rem kept silent throughout the whole process, and Parker completely obeyed Emilia's decision, Zhou Fangwu knew that someone would solve this problem.
"It is not good."
Sure enough, as Zhou Fangwu thought.
Roswaal found that no one was speaking for Subaru Natsuki, so he said: "You know what kind of character Subaru is, Mrs. Emilia, if you don't let him go, he will definitely make some troubles and cause trouble." What's the matter? If that's the case, why don't you take him with you?"
Hearing Roswaal's proposal, Natsuki Subaru almost cried out happily.
But the next moment, he put away his happy expression again.
I just heard Roswaal say: "But-yes-, taking Subaru to the capital is mostly for healing, that's all. It has nothing to do with the king's election at all, understand?"
"Eh?"
Nayuki Subaru thought he could participate in the king's election, but Roswaal's words made him a little confused.
"Healing the body, what's going on?"
He seemed to remember something, "By the way, what Wu and that cat-eared girl...man just said is very interesting. Could it be that the person who said he wanted to be treated just now was talking about me?"
Natsuki Subaru seemed to have just figured it out, his face changed slightly. Then he quickly checked his body, only to find that there was nothing wrong with his body, and the wound on his body had already healed under Zhou Fangwu's [healing] skill.
"It's the door."
Emilia explained: "Didn't Subaru forcibly use Yin magic when he was fighting monsters to protect Rem and me?
The injury caused by that magic did not act on the body. The treatment this time is another matter. You should feel it yourself, Subaru. "
Natsuki Subaru raised his arms and kicked his legs.
He didn't feel any discomfort there, but his limbs felt a little weak, and he felt a little powerless.
He always thought that it was the reason why he was too tired from practicing breathing these days.
It was only when Emilia said that he realized it.
"Is it so serious?"
Nayue Subaru scratched the back of his head and said indifferently: "I know that my body is in a very dangerous state, but what does this have to do with going to the capital for treatment?"
"Your injury must be treated by a high-end healer."
Zhou Fangwu explained to Nayue Subaru: "My treatment can only be applied to the body, and it cannot treat things like 'doors', so I am looking for the man with cat ears."
Nayue Subaru nodded clearly, and said, "Ah, I thought Wu could solve it easily."
Zhou Fangwu said dissatisfiedly: "I'm not Doraemon, how can everything be settled?"
Roswaal took advantage of the situation and said, "That—the child is one of the few in the kingdom, and he is an excellent water magician—Mistress Emilia has worked hard to get help—oh."
What Roswaal said was as if he was deliberately telling Natsuki Subaru how powerful that healer was and how much Emilia had paid for him.
"Wait, Roswaal!"
Emilia shouted anxiously: "Why did you say it!"
"yes?!"
Natsuki Subaru suddenly twisted his body shyly and happily, and said happily: "Emilia Tan, is it really for me?"
"That, that is... because Subaru's body can't be cured because he desperately protects me!"
Emilia explained in a panic: "So I...so I have to help Subaru! This is to repay Subaru's kindness, it is repayment! It is a proper compensation for Subaru's loss!"
She pretty blushed and explained and said incoherent words that made people laugh.
Even Parker laughed and teased her in her ear.
However, this actually finalized the matter of Nayue Subaru going to the king.
"Then, let's talk about Wu."
Under Emilia's gaze, Roswaal no longer looked like a clown with strange words.
He said very seriously: "The kingdom issued an ultimatum, and the sages will require the candidates for the throne to have guard knights to participate in the opening of the king selection ceremony!
I am the Earl of the Frontier, and it is not impossible to disobey the orders of the Council of Wise Men, but doing so will make Lord Emilia's evaluation in the Council of Wise Men plummet! "
He raised this question, and wanted Zhou Fangwu to give him an answer.
"What to do, Wu? What's your answer?"
