Chapter 82: Trailing the Military Man

Kazane continued following the military man, and the military man arrived in front of a building near Rock Hold Cave that appeared to be becoming an inn. It felt like the exterior was still in the process of being built, but the interior was sufficiently done, and it would become the best inn in the area in price and quality

Eh?

Kazane came near the inn and recognized the scent of a person she knew coming from inside.

Commander Reigel. I, Ansol, have returned.

Umu. Enter.

The military man who called himself Ansol entered the room.

Excuse me.

What was the outcome?

The person inside was the Tsuvara Royal Knight Commander Reigel.

Sexual intercourse is white, kissing is gray, physical contact is black. Sieg-sama seems to look at Kazane-sama in a spellbound way, but there was no sign of that kind of relationship existing according to the report.

I see. But respect and affection are similar to love. It wouldn't be strange for that to transform into love perhaps.

Reigel's face turned red as he spoke.

Ansol thought (if it's so embarrassing then don't force yourself to say it), but naturally he couldn't say such a thing to his superior officer.

And the adventurers are demanding higher payment. I think it is a reasonable demand based on the true strength of that group.

Reigel gave a sarcastic laugh at Ansol's words.

While that is certainly true ... it is impossible.

It's impossible?

At Ansol's puzzled face Reigel looked towards the door and spoke.

The investigation is over. It seems we have been noticed by Kazane-sama.

Ha? Eh!?

When Ansol shifted his gaze to the same direction as Reigel's line of sight, Kazane was standing there folding her arms with a sullen face.

Since when!

The military man looked at Kazane with a surprised face.

She entered at the same time you did.

You noticed?

Kazane asked Reigel with a sour look.

I am the head knight that protects the Royal Palace. I possess eyes that can see through that kind of deceiving ability.

Reigel's eyes shone with a thin gleam. It was a Magic Eye that could see through illusions.

That was Invisible, yes? That ability is certainly powerful, but there are people with abilities that easily see through it. Don't overestimate your own power.

Yeah, thanks. I'll be careful.

Kazane obediently thanked him for the advice.

But, that is that and this is this. I'd like Reigel-san to tell me why he is here.

That is

Ansol spoke evasively, but Reigel resigned himself and answeredunderstood.

Commander, is it really all right?

It would be worse to cause an uproar due to an incomplete understanding.

Reigel told Ansol, then faced Kazane.

The truth is we came because His Majesty the King received suspicious information.

Suspicious information?

Reigel nodded at Kazane's question.

It was the arrival of an unnecessary insect from a foreign country with a queen candidate.

There are neither queen candidates nor unnecessary insects.

Kazane knew that Audin liked Kazane. But she thought the marriage proposal was some kind of joke. However, Kazane now realized that may not be the case.

I am fully aware that means Kazane does not accept it, but it is the king's opinion and not my own that matters.

Serving the palace is rough, eh?

I'm glad to receive your understanding.

Kazane sighed. Even if they talked here they couldn't come to any kind of agreement. If so, she would clear up another misunderstanding.

Perhaps I should say that me and Sieg getting together is impossible. That kid is still a child.

Kazane said, and Reigel smiled wryly.

Aren't you around the same age?

That's wrong. I am only two years younger than Tiara. Making a move on such a child is completely impossible, while getting with the King-sama is impossible for the opposite reason.

Hmm. But it appears the prince may not be the same way.

Kazane made a wry smile at Reigel this time.

Look here. A child that age is completely too young to desire that sort of thing.

And Kazane asserted what would likely make Sieg cry if he heard. From the standpoint of a man, Reigel wanted to defend Sieg, but he wasn't going to help the king's love rival.

I see.

Reigel replied, swallowing everything else.

You should also be aware that the king said that if push came to shove he would war with Minshiana, but from what you said that isn't likely.

No way, don't war!

Kazane shouted.

Maybe I should call a beautiful woman like you a siren.

At Reigel's reply Kazane saiduuand her face slightly reddened. Kazane was used to being called cute, but she had no tolerance to being called a beautiful woman. This girl was maybe unexpectedly simple.

Anyway, that's enough about that, make sure to tell the King-sama properly. I also have no intention of becoming Tiara's mother.

Message received. And what will you do about Tiara?

Should I tell her? About this.

Reigel nodded at Kazane's answer and gave an order to Ansol.

Therefore Ansol. Let the adventurers know the mission is a failure. It was also due to our ineptitude. We will pay them the original fee.

Understood.

Then go.

Yes!

Ansol said so, straightened his posture and bowed to Reigel and Kazane, then left the room. And then Reigel faced Kazane.

Since things are over with this I will also depart.

At that remark Kazane saidGo home! Go home!and Raigel smiled bitterly.

Understood. Take care of Tiara.

Even if it wasn't said I would do so. There's certainly no need for you to secretly stalk me again. If you need something show yourself and visit properly.

Reigel repliedI will keep that in mind.to Kazane's words. Kazane then saidwell thenand left the room. Truthfully, it seemed liked Kazane wanted to escape quickly before her trespassing was pointed out.

And then Reigel was the only person remaining in the room.

If I remember correctly Tiara-sama was 17, right? If so, then Kazane-sama would be 15. Her appearance doesn't match, but if that is true there would be no problem with marriage.

The mission was a failure, but Reigel considered this information a good consolation prize. And Reigel himself thought highly of Kazane and thought it would be a good thing if she became his master.

Originally Audin did not attack Kazane because he thought that she was around 10 years old. If there was no problem with her age then there was no need for self control. Audin was not a lolicon or pedo, but a childish figure was no barrier to his love. Kazane's chastity was in crisis.

Well, a direct description would be no good, soLate Night Amusementwould be a good euphemism.

That aside, Kazane returned to the cottage.

Eh, is it already fine?

At Yumika's question Kazane repliedit wasn't a problem,entered the house, and buried herself in an Indestructible Futon. She remembered the previous conversation and suddenly blushed.

(Me with Sieg....they said. They came to check in the morning, I can't believe it. U)

She groaned. There was no choice but to groan. It was the limit for her who only had superficial knowledge about sex. Kazane was also a young girl.

What's wrong, Kazane? Your face is red.

Sieg innocently asked, worried about Kazane's appearance.N, nothing. What do you mean?Kazane replied as her face became even more red, and she pulled the futon over her head.

From the side Louise saidyouthwhile smirking, and Yumika looked at her and earnestly thought (what a fishy aunt). She was a severely rude girl.
