"Come here."

"Ha."

"Mmm."

Sit back on the chair where Fran and Falund were provided, as the samurai told you.

Fran and Falund were taken in a room like a reception room. It is quite a small, tiny room than the hall used to look at it.

But my nervousness was not the same as earlier.

Whatever, we're close to the king. For once, the sofa on which the king sits and the chairs on which the Frans sit are placed somewhat apart, but that distance will not be three meters.

"Take it easy. This is an informal meeting"

What a king told me, I can't believe the guy who really makes it easier...

"Mmm."

I was here! It was my kid! No, I'm still out of my shoulder, I'm just a little out of shape! You should still be able to recover it!

'Fran! Don't make it really easy!

'Uh, anyway, just shun your spine a little bit more here!

(Okay)

Huh, that was dangerous. Look, because it's already a firm spinal pean! Don't stare at me like that, silver-haired knight! If someone as strong as you stares at me like that, my franc will be excited - though! If you get caught up in this knight, who seems to be super strong, you'll be stunned.

"It is Wisora Bredo Kranzel"

The king who looked at each other in the eye. Isn't that too careless? Exploring the signs, there are only two kings and knights and a squire in this room. Normally, there was a hidden door or something, and I thought the escort was holding back.

Fran was also tilting his neck, but the king seemed to have overlooked that.

"Daughter, what's wrong?

"... how come there is no escort?

"You mean that? My knight said it was unnecessary. If your lords are willing, other knights and other knights."

That's what the king looks at Fran as he says it.

"Not so strong in the rest of my eyes..."

I don't have any certainty, but the king himself seems to have some appraisal skills. And they only look like normal adventurers with the effect of appraisal disguise.

But a silver-haired knight who refrains from lying on the side would not be deluded.

It's more than just me and each other.

"If that's what Luga says, I'm pretty sure. Shall I introduce you? Make it the SS Captain, the King's Knight. It's Luga Muffle."

"Nice to meet you"

Luga Muhul did not take her gaze off the francs and met lightly. There are still no gaps.

"It's one of the strongest in our country. Knowing each other's faces won't hurt you?

The King weirdly invested in the "Our Country" part. I guess you want to take Fran and Falund into the Kranzel Kingdom.

You're very different from the Beast King. The Beast King felt like a champion or a king wrapped in prestige. But no intimidation or anything like that has been released by the man in front of you. Can I just call you the politician type?

But it's not like there's nothing like piercing locks as kings. Even though it didn't make the relationship up and down clear, nature and the king were felt to be the most uppermost on this occasion. I mean, I have a presence as a king, or should I say I'm a superior at birth?

It's a good thing it's not dark, but you're not going to be alarmed.

"Well, let's get down to business. We don't have much time."

That's what the king tells his squire to do with some gaze. Then the samurai brought two smaller boxes, maybe 30 centimeters? Fran and Fallnd, a box is placed in front of both.

Inside the box was something like a medal decorated with gems.

"I will recite them to the First Class Lord. Take it."

Wow, you're here with Zuba. I can't use those hands anymore, like saying no to distractions. Are you after him? Or vegetables? I can't read it from the look on my face at all.

Master?

'Uh, wait a minute. Falund, what do we do?

(... Hmm. Fran doesn't want to receive the title, does he?

"Naturally."

(All right)

Falund nods lightly. Oh, reliable!

"I appreciate the story..."

I shake my neck sideways as I say so.

"You say no?

"Same as before, same. And she."

"Mm-hmm. I refuse."

Hey, Fran! Words! Thanks to my courtroom skills, I don't have a problem with my movements, but I do have words!

I panicked and made him say it again.

"Excuse me. I want to continue my adventurer,"

"You're telling me you'll have more than you can give me, right?

The king frowns uncomfortably. Luga Muhul also became more intimidating to emit. Are you motivated?

I would definitely nod if this situation were a weak-minded guy or a power guy. So much pressure in the room. Ugh, my stomach hurts that shouldn't be there.

"... sorry"

"Not anymore."

With Falund, who apologizes briefly and bows his head, Fran also bows his head with a peck.

……

Eh, silence is heavy! The king is still looking at Fran and Falund with a grumpy face.

"... Hmm. You're right, Luga."

A king sinks himself into the couch with a boring looking face when he gently snorts.

"Ha. Because they are adventurers"

"You were right where there were no lower nobles. I can see you making a scene."

Yeah? Thank you. Kings and Luga seemed to expect the Frans to say no.

"Too many people do not know how much their territory benefits adventurers. No, more and more these days even the aristocracy of the Great has failed to take account of the adventurer..."

Hi, I hear you dared try to give the title in these places so that nobles who are not comfortable with the adventurers don't turn hostility to the Frans. Could the grumpy attitude be acting? But they still don't break uncomfortable expressions.

"As for the Falls of the Hundred Swords, I have said no several times in the past, so I thought it would happen again. But it's Princess Black Thunder, Fran? Why didn't you say no? It's a title, isn't it? Besides, if you become a first-class special, you're like a count without territory. If so, would it be troublesome to run a territory? The royal pension is accompanied by the special lord, but the territory may not be operated. I'm sure you'll take the utmost care of that, huh?

I mean, I guess it's a title for adventurers. Instead of paying an aristocratic pension, tie it to the country as an active force. You're not going to be an adventurer, so you can use it for war. Instead, the adventurer gets the back shield of the country and the honor.

"What is it that your lords are unhappy with?

But Falund's response to the King's words was concise.

"Freedom"

"... Hmm. That's the last word I have. But you're not interested in money and power? Daughter, how's it going?

"... I don't need anything like that."

"Something like that...... This is why the guys called Adventurers......! That's enough. Back off."

Has it pissed off the king? But there's no sign of Luga trying to do anything. I guess it was woven to be rejected after all. Are you still saying you would be dissatisfied if they refused?

And there is a voice on the back of the Frans who tried to exit.

"Forget everything that was in this room. Forget the rest."

Does that mean you don't ask questions about crushing your face? Signs of anger don't seem to subside, but they're not willing to be hostile.

"Phew. You figure it out? Honestly, I was ready to get out of this country. '

(As I said the other day, the king is a man who gives priority to the interests of the nation. You don't commit foolishness hostile to us. Regardless, I would have ordered an attack without hesitation if I had decided that it would be in my interest to retaliate against being crushed)

What about that? It means you can't appeal to emotion. In a different way than the Beast King, he was a scary opponent.

"Well, if you've been cut out, no."
