Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! Book 8: Chapter 5

Welco ho, Onii-sama.

When I got to the palace where I work, I ca across Freya ,who happened to be leaving. She smiled when she saw then bowed and greeted .

Ah, Freya. Long-ti no see.

Co to think of it. Freya was the calst one when she saw . It was as though I wasnt in the desert fighting for a month, but just went to the elven side to pay Lucia a visit and brought so souvenirs back. I looked at Freya who was smiling and wanted to say sothing but couldnt.

Freya looked at and then said, I am very sorry, Onii-sama, but due to the challenges with my identity, I could not welco you with Her Majesty. I, therefore, hope that you will not reprimand for not welcoming you. I actually wanted to see you, Onii-sama, after all

I watched Freya lower her head. Though Freya is my adopted-sister, few actually acknowledge her as my adopted-sister. As Her Majesty doesnt make her stance on the matter clear, whenever mbers of the royal family make an appearance, Freya wont be present if Im not. I dont think Freya got to see Her Majesty while I was gone.

Im aware of it, but I cant say anything, either. I do feel sorry for Freya, though. Freya is very loyal to . Its just that Elizabeth doesnt want any other child other than .

I hugged Freya and then asked, I wont find fault with you. To the contrary, Im a little worried. You werent present when I ca back yesterday, were you? You didnt co back at night, either. Have you been that busy with work recently?

Freya raised her head up and leaned on my chest, seemingly reluctant to let go. She looked at while she was leaning on my chest. Her expression was still very serious, nonetheless. She replied, There have, indeed, been a lot of matters to take care of recently. Did you co to any agreents while in the desert, Onii-sama? Socina suddenly gave a trading agreent that they wanted to sign. Being clueless as to what happened, I did not dare to sign it, and therefore, it is still pending

I nodded, Ah, just agree to it, since Ive agreed to it.

I think thats about it for the matter with Socina. I need to make a trip to Socina too, since their lord invited . I assu theres business of so sort, or maybe she just wants to speak with . Im very interested in Socina, myself. Ill head there after a one-month break here.

Is that so? I shall ask that you sign it yourself then, Your Majesty.

Freya didnt ask what happened.

I was wrestling with whether I should tell Freya about the agreent in the desert or not. I dont know if Freya will laugh at after hearing how I obliviously beca soones pawn and got the map snatched right off of . I dont think she will, but its not a suitable ti to be telling a story right now.

There are also the preparations for the hunting event. It will soon be early spring. Her Majesty holds a hunting event once annually. All of the rulers of the various vassal states will also co. It will be a most splendorous event. However, how should I put it Mm This ti, Her Majesty ordered Castell and to prepare it together. It is my first ti organising such a large event, so I feel as though I do not have what it takes to do what I wish.

Freya smiled embarrassingly then touched her head and continued, I think we will have to make a trip back to the Royal Capital, since that is where the event will be held. I wonder if you will be participating, Onii-sama It will begin very soon, in about a week.

It suddenly hit .

I thought Nara was talking about sothing else when she said we would et again soon when we left. So this is what she was referring to. I cant believe its already spring. I thought it was still winter this entire ti. But I guess it is. Its warr now and the water outside isnt frozen, so spring must approaching soon.

Primarily large wild animals are hunted for the hunting event, so I presu there will be dangers involved. As you have just returned from the desert, your body has yet to fully recover, therefore I advise against your participation, Onii-sama. It is enough for you to be a planner and supplier at the Royal Capital. Freya looked at and earnestly went on, Onii-sama, there was no need for to partake in the planning this ti, because it is a hunting event Her Majesty is organising, but she asked to get involved. You know what that implies, right? It implies that you have to show yourself before all of the vassal states.

I dawdled for a mont.

Honestly, I still have traumas toward the word hunting. Last ti, we hunted a White Deer King, only for Lucia and to almost die in the wilderness. But okay, put that aside for a second. ra died in my arms at the end. I deeply hate the hunting subject and it still hurts . I will never be able to forget the pain.

Thus, I wont be hunting anything this ti regardless of how Im expected to perform. Im going to stay in the Royal Capital in peace. I wont bother anyone, so dont co bother . Mommy Elizabeth might want for to show myself in front of all of the vassal states this ti, but Im not leaving.

Im not going no matter how much she wants to go. I cant shake off the feeling that sothing serious will happen if I leave this ti.

I wont go hunting. I resolutely declared my stance. My resolute attitude caused Freya to freeze up.

Freya then chuckled. She replied, I never thought I would see you so resolute, Your Majesty. Could it be that you are afraid of hunting? Well, it does not matter. After all, you are not really expected to show yourself and hunt. Hunting is her majestys pasti. Where you truly need to show yourself is the annual eting that cos before the hunting event.

Annual eting?

While looking at , Freya explained, Yes. It is a new year, after all. Her Majesty wants all the vassal states to co, too. You will be eting all of the rulers of the vassal states at the annual eting. You are the main star this ti. It appears that Her Majesty wishes to announce your presence to everyone. Perhaps she is thinking about how to make you the next Emperor.

I understand that since Mommy Elizabeth has already ntioned it. I an wanting for to be the next Emperor that is. I want to say, please find sobody better than . Im honestly not modest wait, shit!! Why are curse words surfacing in my mind all of a sudden?! I think I can do it. Im not modest. I think this is an opportunity mom prepared for .

This is an opportunity, Onii-sama. Please ensure that you prepare well. Although you do not need to prepare any clothes or ceremonies, what you need to prepare is more abstract. And that is to show them what sort of monarch you wish to beco.

Freya looked at with a serious look and told , Please do not take it lightly, Onii-sama. You must do that if you wish to wear the crown. You must also carefully consider what you want to show them. That is how you must display yourself in order to get the vassal states to obey you. That is what is most important. I apologise, Onii-sama. You have just returned and have yet to rest. Nevertheless, you may not have ti to relax as what we must do next is more serious than your journey to the desert.
