Moto Sekai Ichi'i no Sub-chara Ikusei Nikki Chapter 74 Final Moves
Chapter 74 Final Moves
Next morning.
We left the comrcial city Le?ador early in the morning.
Sherry-chan cried herself to sleep, and when we t again this morning, for so reason her ears turned red and she quickly evaded my sight, so it didn’t turn into a conversation between the two of us. However, I could see her talking to Irie-san and the others so it looks like it sorted itself out in the end. This is good. However, I’m a bit scared of the next ti we et. I don’t know what she’ll say to at that ti, it’s a frightening mystery.
And speaking of Chérie, she didn’t ask and just said “I’ll definitely have to see house Firstest”, and forced herself on to us. I made her promise to go back after seeing it, but I sohow get the feeling that she will want to stay soti.
——
In such a way, the earning experience trip ended, and so did our little vacations.
The mbers of the First Royal Court Magician Division all succeeded in raising their INT, albeit a little, by allocating all the experience they gained from doing Ngultrum rounds onto their appropriate First Form spell. With this, the “Magic Curtain Squad” has finally made its first step towards taking form.
Ideally, they all should raise all their attributes’ First Form spell to Grade nine. However, there’s a long way until then.
“――Welco ho, Master.”
Since I ssaged Yukari telling her that I would be bringing Chérie ho, the servants greeted all together despite the sun already having set.
Regardless of her rank as the daughter of an Earl, Chérie was visibly quite surprised at the unusual scale of ‘House Firstest’.
“Chérie, where do you want to stay? At this ti of the year, I would recomnd the lakeside.”
“T-That is fine, I guess? ”
After crossing the entrance gate, we continued from there a while more. Seemingly taken aback by the size of my house, which was many tis larger than her family’s, Chérie’s eyes darted around as she looked at the scenery outside. Well, it’s to be expected, this place is larger than the Royal Palace after all. I felt good having her make that nice reaction, so I contacted Yukari so that dinner could be as grandiose as possible. However, it seems that the Chef Sovra is sick and resting today, so only a decent al can be prepared, at most. That cigarette bastard, he had to get sick at this important mont……
When we arrived at the lakeside mansion, the only people waiting for us were Yukari and one maid. I think she was called Es if I’m not wrong. It’s the redheaded little sister. It seems like she will be accompanying Chérie during her stay.
“Master. Bestowal has been successful on one more piece of equipnt.”
“Really!? ”
Silvia and Eko both went back to their rooms, and Chérie was being guided to the guest room, and during that ti, Yukari ca to report this to .
The completed equipnt was 『Anaguma Shellrock Gauntlets』―― an armor piece for the hands enchanted with Anaguma, increasing the VIT of the wearer to 150%.
“It’s amazing! With this, Eko will beco tougher.”
“I will give it to her later.”
“Yeah, please do.”
“Yes. A-And, there’s sothing……else.”
Yukari then leaned over and spoke shyly while fidgeting.
Even I who was bad at reading this sort of thing was able to properly notice it. Without Yukari having to finish her words, I stroked her head, slowly going back her neck, and made a promise to et her tonight. Yukari’s bashful look was, as always, cute, beautiful and bewitching.
“I know, you are flirting, but……”
And then, wearing a pouting expression, Windfield talked to seemingly appearing out of nowhere. Ahh, this is bad for my heart. Even though it’s my house, she’s like a phantom, appearing in unexpected places at unexpected tis.
“The state of the conflict, is moving, just as expected.”
She said such a thing looking as if this had nothing to do with her at all. Isn’t this quite important……?
“It’s been a while, since King Barwell ordered the disclosure, of the official docunts. And at last, they’ve disclosed them.”
“In other words, they finished tampering with them? In this short ti? ”
“Yeah. Not just the Second Knight Order, but also with so voices being raised from the Third Knight Order about the violation of the agreent, that person did great.”
Windfield clapped her hands as if to praise a student who properly finished their sumr howork. This composure of hers feels reliable.
“Let’s get the, original official docunt. Okay? ”
Nice, it’s ti. Looks like it’s my long-awaited turn.
“And so, can you please, call Silvia-san?”
……Or maybe not just yet.
——
——
“Inquiry about the criminal records? ”
“Yes.”
After dinner. Windfield was giving so instructions to Silvia, who was sitting in the living room with Chérie.
“When you first t Second-san, you arrested him, right, Silvia-san?”
“Umu, that’s right. It truly takes back……”
“Stop, don’t make rember. I was just confused at that ti.”
It just happened as a result of being extrely excited and having danced in front of that store. Only sha remains from that mont when I was arrested due to obstructing a business. In the end, they continued to doubt and my excuses were useless.
“I want you to check the docunts of that ti.”
“I don’t mind……But, what is the aning of that? ”
It suddenly dawned on . I’m sure Silvia was previously instructed by Windfield to answer the Third Knight Order’s call and tell that sothing along the lines of “That man might know sothing”. Checking the criminal records this ti must have sothing to do with it.
“Silvia-san, when you were requested by the Third Knight Order to show yourself, you reported various things about Second-san, right? ”
“Umu. As I was told, I only reported lies that would be advantageous for us.”
“And now, it’s about ti those lies, have been found out. The Third Knight Order, will be on guard, against you, Silvia-san.”
“……I see. In other words, I am the bait.”
“That’s correct. The other party has beco suspicious. They will think that there is sothing in the docunt of Second-san’s arrest.”
I see. It might certainly be unavoidable that those who tampered with the official docunts will think the other party will tamper so of them. Sothing similar to those people who think “Since I did it, it’s a matter of course others will do it too.”
“It doesn’t matter whether you falsify it or not Silvia-san, after you go check it, they will certainly co too to investigate. And that person who cos check on it will be the person in the position to deal with the official docunts.”
“Tracing it from there, we’ll be able to find out the party behind the falsification of the official docunts, and eventually reach the originals.”
“Exactly.”
So that’s why she set up this timing. Right now, when the other party is feeling overly confident.
The Pri Minister hasn’t noticed he’s being played with yet. They haven’t made a move. That’s why, by having us, their opponents make a move on them, we will lure out the villain. Amazing, a thod to use their confidence against them. I definitely don’t want to have this girl as an enemy……
“Hey, can I say sothing?”
“What’s wrong? Was dinner not to your taste? ”
“Not at all, the food was delicious. That’s not it, hey? ”
“What? Ahh, the toilet is at the end of the corridor at the right.”
“As I said, that’s not it.”
“If it’s not the toilet…… then what do you need? ”
“It’s cruel to treat soone who wet herself one ti like this, don’t you think!? “()
Chérie was getting more and more relaxed, so she was going back to her old ‘retorting’ self.
‘Gohon’, clearing her throat, she regained her composure and continued.
“Is it alright to talk about that in front of ? Just by listening to the contents, isn’t that……a bit too dangerous? ”
“Well, it’s fine if it’s you.”
“I-Is that so? You sure are trusting.”
Yeah, I do trust you. Specifically, I don’t think that a person who wet herself in front of will do sothing against . I’ll never let you forget the trouble you gave that night.
“Leaving that aside, what’s with this house? Isn’t it beyond amazing? I think it might be bigger than the Royal Palace. And well-built too, right? Seeing you poke your head into this political strife, aren’t you trying to soday beco the King? ”
“I don’t want to be sothing like a King.”
“I was just kidding, but……what are you planning to beco?”
“The World’s Number 1.”
“That’s sothing too vague for to understand, but I guess there’s no use in trying to persuade you……”
Everyone laughed at Chérie’s reply, then, after having a pleasant chat with her, the day ca to an end.
It was such a laid-back night that nobody would think we were in the middle of political strife.
…………No, I totally forgot.
“Haaaー……”
The following morning. I sat on the sofa in the living room, feeling like a dried-out husk and gazed out to the lake’s shore, my breath turning into a white cloud of vapor.
Yukari, on the other side, was all fine and good, as she prepared breakfast in the kitchen. Are all dark elves like that? If that’s the case, shouldn’t it be better to change the na of their race to succubus?
I won the ga. I sohow managed to win, but I still feel like I lost.
And, the terrible thing is, now it’s clear that Yukari is still growing, and at a terrifying speed, almost like so extraterrestrial creature. At this rate, the “third installnt” will be an overwhelming raid. Since the previous two have been hits, I’m sure the next one will have its budget increased. Surely, “The third installnt has a aningless chase and shootout, in which the protagonist and the heroine will share a joyful kiss at the end of it, making it a happy ending”, but in this case, let think, “The invasion continued without resistance as humanity was driven to the most remote places, but they still survived and continued to live――”. Yeah, I feel this certainly is a story like that, without salvation. And then, the fourth installnt will be a shitty one, rembering the past. “And the truth is, this is what happened”, even though it will have an ending like that, the hype would have died down by then. No, it’s not that the hype would die down. What I wanted was that simple and clear story, that pleasant and exciting action where they try to rescue the kidnapped daughter and fight the stupidly strong father who kills people left and right. Just that, not so useless dark, serious and opportunistic war in vain using so flashy CGI. In the first place, why was a supermassive blockbuster pretentiously forgetting about its originality and moving to simply earn more money――?
“――ter, Master! ”
“……Ahh. What happened? ”
“No, nothing, it’s just that you weren’t answering when I called out to you.”
“Sorry, I was lost in thought.”
“Breakfast is now ready.”
“Hmm. I’m coming.”
And so, the day began as if nothing had happened again.
I need to prepare so secret weapon against this extraterrestrial creature. And with that firm resolution in my heart, I arrived a little late and sat down at the table.

“The contents of the official docunts have finally co out, Your Highness, are you sure this is okay? ”
Minister Hairai visited the Second Prince, Maine, and had a eting about their future actions.
“Yes. The tampering is now certain. All we have to do now is wait without changing our posture.”
“However, as ti passes without any new evidence, it will be our faction the one who’ll beco cornered.”
An official docunt had been disclosed, in which “the fact that an agreent between the R6 and the Second and Third Knight Orders was not recorded” was noted, making the current situation for the Second Prince faction a bit tough. They couldn’t help now being suspected of false accusations and criticized for their use of politics.
“Evidence will co. In a few days at the earliest.”
“……It looks to that you’re placing too much trust on that person, Your Highness.”
“It can’t be helped, he’s my one and only friend after all…… and he’s beyond common sense in a lot of ways. You’re not allowed to take asures. Since common sense doesn’t work, let’s stop trying to find sense in his actions.”
“It almost makes feel pity for the Pri Minister, Val.”
The situation may get worse before it changes for the better――was a quote from the forr British Pri Minister, Churchill. But they smiled as if they knew this would hold true.
“You’ve changed, Your Highness. You’re like a majestic warrior before the battle.”
“You’re wrong. I have to act that way for that person’s sake. The real is just a weak coward, but I can finally act dignified even if it’s just a farce.”
“Let’s just say we’re quietly waiting for an opportunity to make a move. The fact we got to this point and cornered the Pri Minister like this is all due to you, Your Highness. Even if you don’t think of it like this, Your Highness, it’s fine as long as we, your subjects see it this way.”
“It’d be nice if that was the case……”
‘If I were to say that, he’d totally get angry’, Maine whispered, but sohow, he had a smile on his face.
With this, being the next king is……Hairai smiled lightly, then he opened his mouth as he lowered his head.
“Well then, this is all I have to report. Let’s move with him as the focal point from now on.”
“Yes. Thank you, I leave it to you, Hairai-san.”
“By the way, Your Highness. How about you introduce him to His Majesty when you are assured of your succession to the throne? Please give this so consideration.”
“…………”
Those last words of Hairai broke the smile Maine had so far, turning it into a bitter one.
How can I introduce that rude and outspoken friend? ――The more he thought about it, the more his stomach hurt.
