Chapter 442: Nothing Happens and I Feel Relieved

Before noon contact came from Her Majesty the Queen.

"Prince Green is relieved of all public offices and goes to the Marie Kingdom. Prince Green seems to have plotted the assassination of Ambassador Marie. No movement of searching for the culprit regarding the deaths accompanying that. Caution the Duke of Vélez for the time being. Do not let Takamoto Konoka go outside."

It was extremely simple content. Which of those from last night was the guy who tried to dispose of Konoka, and which were the ones arranged to kill me, I do not know. It feels as though all of them were so, and also feels as though they were not. Now it has become irrelevant.

※Author’s note: Division Head Hütter’s matter is not touched on in the contact from the Queen, but the disappearance of Division Head Hütter is a national shame and is treated as top secret.

Time goes back a little.

Around the time Robbie finished breakfast, Lily

"Lady Konoka has woken up."

conveyed.

"Is that so, then prepare breakfast. But will she say she will eat?"

"She says she is hungry."

"Heh, then that’s good. After breakfast is finished, bring her to my room. Not the private room side, but the office side."

"Understood. Then there is something I would like to convey a little."

"What?"

"In the morning, when I casually looked at the sleeping Lady Konoka, it looked as though she was wearing some veil."

"Veil?"

"Yes, I do not know how to say it. It looked that way."

"Heh."

"Then, I tried to touch it, but I could not touch it, or rather my finger passed through. When I brought my hand close it became a little thinner, but as time passed it looked as though it returned to the original. Later could Lord Robbie also look? I have a feeling that is not good for Lady Konoka."

"Understood. I’ll be careful and look."

"Please."

Saying that, Lily withdrew.

Robbie became alone in the office and thought about last night. I ended up killing quite a few people. Especially the two at the gate place were guys who seemed to have quite strong quirks, so I had forgotten to look if something was transmitted from those guys. Thinking that, I look at my own skills.

"Life-Stealing Transmission Technique" "Sword technique" 6 "Spear technique" 1 "Martial arts" 4 "Magic Sword" 1 "Bow" 6 "Divine Legs" 3 "Fire" 4 "Light" 1 "Water" 4 "Stealth" 8 "Concealment" 8 "Appraisal" 4 "Detection" 7 "Purification" 3 "Deception" 3 "Sexual technique" 2 "Mana bag" 4 "Poison Sight" 4 "Berserker" 2 "Super strength" 3 "Mental magic resistance" 6 "Calculation" 3 "Mental magic" 3 "Cooking" 3 "Lightning" 2 "Healing" 3 "Curse application" 4 "Curse removal" 4 "Curse resistance" 3 "Mark" 5

Hmm, what increased? I thought before too, but I want the ability of a screenshot. The difference is... Magic Sword? What kind of thing is Magic Sword? What else? Are there other things whose abilities rose? The fine details have become irrelevant. Rising is better than not, but it is only worth it when actually used.

While thinking that,

"Lord Robbie, I have brought Lady Konoka."

Lily guided. Guided by Lily, Konoka entered the room.

"Good morning. Takamoto Konoka-san."

"Good morning, Lord Robbie Marie. Thank you for saving me last night. I express my thanks."

Konoka lowers her head. Huh? It feels as though a faintly grayish haze is hanging over Konoka. Last night it did not bother me, but looking now in a bright place it bothers me. It was as Lily said.

"Konoka, how is your physical condition?"

When I asked, Konoka repeatedly lowers her head.

"Lord Robbie,, no, excuse me. Lord Robin, thanks to you I was able to sleep soundly last night."

Huh, isn’t the character different?

"Um, Konoka, isn’t it quite different from before?"

Konoka suddenly becomes serious.

"Ah, yes, I am sorry. Previously I was rude. When in that room I became depressed and could only think in a bad direction. The inside of the room was pitch dark the whole time."

Huh? Is that so, when I went with Her Majesty the Queen it was daytime and bright, though?

"But, having come here, when I talked with Lily-san last night my mood cleared, and my mood became brighter. That person called Stevie transferred from this world and is working hard in a different world, right? Moreover Stevie-san is serving the couple who transferred from Japan and working hard, right? Hearing that, I also thought I might try a little."

"Is that so, that’s good. But if speaking of another world transfer, three men came to this world together, right?"

At my words Konoka makes a disgusted face.

"Those people are no good. Physiologically we do not match. They ignored me the whole time and built a wall and did not try to let me in. If being with those people, living alone is better. Lord Robin, please let me live here! Please let me work here! I beg you!"

and bows deeply. Looking at Lily, she is nodding. I do not know in what meaning she nodded, but nodding means to say yes to me, probably.

"Konoka, understood. It is fine if you work here. But, because that hair and eye color are characteristic, if you do not wear a wig it will stand out too much to people’s eyes. Various people come here, so if it is not made so that it is not known to be Konoka, you cannot work."

"Um, Lord Robin."

"Call me Robbie. The people I am close with all say that. Konoka can also say that. If you call me that, the servants working at our place will think Konoka has a special relationship with me and will be considerate. So do that. This is an order."

If only the words are heard it is strict, but I say it while laughing.

"Yes, understood. Then, would it be fine if you call me Kono-chan? Kon-chan is also fine."

For some reason Konoka is rapidly shortening the mental distance. The expression of Lily behind is about to change into a demon.

"No, I won’t go that far."
