Chapter 140
Happy Monday!
Heres the chapter, enjoy.
The moment that Akira achieved victory, King Igsam was violently trembling.
No waya human won against a beastman? Such a thing is impossible!!
Perhaps it was because Ria knew of Akiras strength from our time in the Brute dungeon, as there was no change in her facial expression and because of that, it made obvious that King Igsam was shaken.
Why are you so agitated? Akira won against my younger sister as well. Someone of that degree, of course he would win by a margin. Besides, you know of our movements. In that case, its strange that you dont know about the matter with Kirika.
I was filled with confidence that my hypothesis was correct when King Igsam fell silent.
The information about us that you spoke of, all of them involved the beastmen. an explanation, wont you give me one?
I secretly eavesdropped on Akira, but the people who attacked the elves bore the Uruk crest.
It seems that the mastermind was Gram, but if the crest was on the sword, then it was also a possibility that it was the soldiers here.
I didnt want to consider the possibility that King Igsam had ordered that my brethren be kidnapped, but it would be different if Akira was injured.
Even if he was a king, even if he was a god, anyone who gets in Akiras way need to be removed.
King Igsam left the balcony and walked into the room, and sat down on the sofa.
I understand. We can begin there. Ria, sorry, butt can I ask you to bring some drinks, enough for a few people.
Yes, father.
After Ria left the room, I sat down on the chair across from King Igsam.
First of all, how much do you know about Gram?
He is the child of you oneesan, and he was doted on because it was difficult for those of the royal family to bear children. However, things got too out of control and he became someone who loved to wield his authority as royalty as he liked. He did not change his ways even when he became the guildmaster. In the end, he even got involved with the drug trace, and even the king can not stop him.
When I summarized what Ria had told me on the boat, King Igsam frowned and then nodded.
Thats right. Even if I made use of the strength of the current army, they can not win against Grams strengthened mercenaries. And, the ones from the elven territory were our soldiers, but they had gone mad due to the drugs. Right now, I am considering separating the soldiers who under the influence of the drugs and those that are not, but I can not tell them apart. I dont know what to do. That child had always been extremely intelligent.
Then why did you ask Akira to assassinate him. You asked Akira when you had no confidence in his strength.
If he truly wanted to kill him, then he couldve just entrusted the task to the royal familys assassins.
No matter the country, underhanded means had to have been used when it was established, so they probably employed one or two assassins.
If we failed, he would look for evidence and follow up on it. That must be avoided at all costs. In comparison, he doesnt know where that man came from, since he isnt an inhabitant of this world, correct? Even if he failed and died, it wouldnt be the continents problem. Isnt that the best method?
Even if you asked me, Im troubled, but I understood that it was necessary for a king to make such a choice when the occasion called for it.
However, understanding was different from accepting it.
Akira will never become your tool. However, if, Akira goes back to his original world, what will you do. I heard that the country that Akira was in was much more advanced than this world. If we antagonized them, we may be destroyed.
Fu, fufu, ahahahahaha!!
When I said that, King Igsam laughed heartily.
Based on his mannerisms, its easy to imagine what kind of place he lived in, but thats impossible. Such a future will not happen.
If I remember correctly, King Igsams occupation was calligrapher.
He shouldnt be able to see the future, but its confirmed as such.
When I tilted my head in confusion, the corners of King Igsams curled and he smiled.
Things that are impossible are an impossibility. They will live in this world, and die here. They can no longer go back to their world. maa, those pursuing their dreams are dazzling. All the more so when its something thats out of their reach.
The feeling that this king gave me was similar to when Im with otousama, so although were not close acquaintances, I understood somewhat.
I also understood that the scoundrel Gram was his relative.
To put it simply, his personality was terrible.
He brought you out of the elven territory, but it would be good if you quickly choose your future course. Right now, you may be playing around with each other, but you are the elves princess heir.
When I heard him say that we were playing around, I was shocked, as if I had been slapped.
I had completely no intentions of doing that, but up until now, I had always been told that I was the princess heir.
However, being with Akira, were not playing around or anything like that.
Even though I wanted to say that, my voice wouldnt come out.
My following Akira shouldve been of my own volition.
Akira did not take me away.
However, if an elven princess and a human summoned hero were together, would they be acknowledged.
Was it inconveniencing Akira.
excuse me. I apologize for being late. We ran out of tea leaves, so I have brought lemon water.
Ria, who had left for quite a long time, came in.
Ooh, is that so. Then we need to go buy some more.
Yes. Amelia-sama, it is almost time, so I will see you off.
Ria, who looked pale, said that, so I nodded and stood up from my chair.
Well then, excuse us.
Umu.
In the end, I could not say anything in response.
