It was my third day in the Hydra Kingdom. The sun still hasn’t risen yet as I walk through the city, heading towards a certain place.
It’s not like I’m particularly obligated to go there or anything, and I wasn’t really sure before if I could go there today, but since the grandpa asked to talk to him soti, I had co to where I t him yesterday.
W- Well, even though I felt like this was pushed on , I agreed to it myself. I don’t think I’ll be coming to Hydra Kingdom that often, so I thought that I should visit as much as possible while I’m here.
[Unnn? Ohh, if it isn’t the youngster yesterday!?]
[Ahh, good morning.]
[Ohh, good morning. What’s the matter? Have you co to listen to again today?]
[Y- Yes, well……]
[Ohh, is that so!? Have you heard? There was apparently so incident yesterday.]
He’s talking like a machine gun like usual…… He would switch the topic of conversation without even waiting for my response.
Or rather, that incident he was talking about was yesterday’s attack, right? I was in that incident, you know?
[Attacking the Hero-sama, that’s one foolish act of theirs.]
[I- I guess so.]
[Umu! Good grief, what troubling people…… Because of that, even I…… Erhem, the senators of this country are in a bind right now.]
[Eh? Is that so?]
It seems that this grandpa is quite knowledgeable, or rather, well-inford, and seems to have a good grasp on the incident yesterday.
[The fact that they were attacked in this city is really bad~~ I suppose we’ll have to overhaul our security system, and also, since the country had apparently got the attacker in custody, that ans that the country will punish him but…… I don’t think this will be settled with just a half-hearted punishnt.]
[……………….]
[Rumor has it that the God of Fate-sama is in a bad mood…… Because of that, I heard that the King is holding her head in her hands.]
[I- Is that so……]
……Fate-san. I guess I’ll give her a follow up the next ti I et her.
I don’t know if this grandpa knows what I was thinking or not, but he let out a big sigh…… Hmmm. Could it be that this grandpa is one of the senators?
Then, it makes sense as to why he’s well-inford.
[There’s also the problem with our country’s reputation…… Really, how troubling it is.]
[I- It’s quite a bind, isn’t it?]
[That’s right…… Even if they properly deal with this, the king of those other noisy countries will still make so complaint……]
[Unnn?]
[Ahh, no, it’s nothing. I was just thinking that the King and the senators must have a hard ti because of the importance of our national honor.]
[H- Huhh……]
The way he’s saying it is like he’s only a bit involved with it but…… As I thought I think this grandpa is a senator.
However, I think he wants to keep it under wraps. If that’s the case, it isn’t a good idea to ask him about it, so let’s just pretend I didn’t notice.
[Is that so, Her Majesty, the King and the Senators must have a hard ti taking care of the country huh?]
[Ohh! You understand huh!? Even a youngster could see it huh…… It’s really troubling…… Erhem. N- No, I also think that they’re having a hard ti.]
[………………….]
Could you hide it a little better please…… It’s really hard trying not to make a reaction here……
[I- In the first place, it would be an inexcusable act to attack Hero-sama…… Good gracious, if I had been there, I would have “smashed” that attacker……]
Did he just say “smashed”!? No, I understand what that word ans, but I don’t want to imagine it. I wonder if this grandpa is quite the fighter? I can’t really judge the strength of people in this world based on appearances, so even if he looks like an old man, he may be very strong.
While I was thinking about this, the grandpa stood up and spun his fishing rod around to reel in the line.
[That would be it then, young man. I’ve got so business to attend to, so I’ll take my leave.]
[Ah, yes. I’m sorry to bother you.]
[No, no, I also had lots of fun…… However, you dutifully ca here after what I said yesterday, it seems that you’re a good man.]
[H- Huhh……]
[You’re rather thin, but your face is good. I don’t think won would want to let you go, hahaha!]
His talking skills are at peak as usual…… He was just about to cut himself off from the conversation, but we’re already on a different topic.
[So long, till we et again!]
[Ah, yes. Do your best too, Grandpa.]
[Umu! Ahh, that’s right…… I heard that Hero-sama would make his speech in front of the House of Parliant today at 1:00 pm. If you’re not busy, you can go and see it.]
With that, he vigorously laughed and left with a powerful gait. Unnn. I really think he’s pretty strong…… At least, he’s stronger than .
However, Mitsunaga-kun is making his speech huh…… I had the ti anyway, so I guess I’ll check it out.
After I finished talking with the grandpa, I decided to go see Mitsunaga-kun’s speech, but it was still early in the morning…… so I ca back to the inn with the idea of having breakfast first.
As I headed to my room, for so reason, I found Heart-san in front of my room.
[……Heart-san?]
[!? Miyama-sama! Thank goodness…… My apologies, but please co with !]
[W- What’s going on? You’re being sudden……]
For so reason, Heart-san, who looked quite the calm person, was very flustered, and when she spotted , she ran up to and told to co with her.
I wonder why? It sounds like she’s really flustered…… A situation where the God Heart-san is flustered? Moreover, she’s telling that she wants to co with her, what in the world……
[G- God of Fate-sama is in trouble!]
[Eh? Fate-san is!?]
[Y- Yes…… Anyway, please co with !]
[I- I understand.]
The confusion in my mind grew even greater when I heard Heart-san say that Fate-san is in trouble.
After all, I can’t think of a situation where Fate-san is in trouble at all…… No matter how I think about it, Fate-san is one of the most powerful beings in the world, so I can’t see any situation where she would need my help.
It sounds like she’s doing this job properly this ti, so I don’t think she needs to save her from Chronois-san, and she also didn’t try to touch in weird places, so it’s not like she wants to save her from Kuro’s spanking.
Although I was confused about the situation, I imdiately moved with the Teleportation Magic that Heart-san deployed.
And thus, as soon as I arrived…… I understood what Heart-san was talking about when she said that she was in trouble.
[G- God of Fate-sama…… Please endure it a bit more……]
[Don’t wannnnaaaaaa! I’ve worked my ass off enough already!!! I’m not moving a single step from here todaaaaaaaayyyyy!!!]
[……………….]
Currently in front of is Shea-san, who has a troubled expression on her face, and Fate-san, who is curled up under a blanket, like a turtle hiding under her shell.
Ahh, I see…… So that’s what she ant……
[I diligently worked yesterday! We should have been finished with this job yesterday!!!]
[T- That’s certainly true but…… Because of that trouble that happened yesterday……]
[No mooooooorrreeeeeeee! I don’t wanna work! I don’t wanna work!!!]
[………………………]
It seems like she’s been working diligently for the past two days, but it seems like Fate-san’s slacker switch was finally turned on, and this morning, she started making a fuss about not wanting to work.
When I asked Heart-san about the situation, she said that she wasn’t happy with the fact that the preparatory eting, which was supposed to be over in two days, didn’t end because of the attack yesterday and their job was carried over to today.
[……T- That’s why I called Miyama-sama. Miyama-sama, please help us. We can’t do anything about God of Fate-sama when she becos like this……]
[I- I understand…… I’ll do what I can.]
It seems that Heart-san brought here because she wants to persuade Fate-san.
To be honest, that seems to be quite the challenge, but it doesn’t seem like she’s listening to Heart-san and Shea-san’s words at all.
I’m certain that this would be easy if I ask Shiro-san but…… that’s just coercing her with an order, so I’ll make it a last resort and try to persuade her first.
Dear Mom, Dad———- Well, considering how she usually acts, I think she actually did pretty well. And for so reason, I also thought that this might eventually happen. Well, in a nutshell———- Fate-san’s bad habit ca out.
