48 – Vacation – 2

The place I decided to go on vacation was a place called Leidin Recreation Area, about two days by carriage from the capital.

Reidin Mountain has good scenery along with cool valleys, and it is often used as a resort by nobles and high-ranking people from each race.

At one time, it was controlled by the demon king’s forces and monsters, but it was regaining its former reputation thanks to the hero’s party.

It’s not easy to make a reservation, but…

“You can reserve a special room there?”

“yes.”

Solving the problem there was also one of the achievements. So, I solved the problem while progressing through the main story, and in the process, I was able to obtain a permanent reservation for a special room at the Leidin Resort.

It was one of the items that most players must obtain because they could get a permanent reservation for a special room in the game and see a swimsuit service shot when inviting each character.

Also, getting it is an achievement, so I got it too. I had never invited anyone before.

It was because I was busy picking up achievements right away, and service shots weren’t the problem.

“There’s a special room that you can’t easily enter even at church…”

“It’s like that in the royal family too. Reidin Mountain is the territory of the Beasts…”

Since the Reidin resort is the territory of the Join tribe, the power of the humans does not have much effect. It was natural that Lucille and Veronica could not go easily unless there was a special kite.

As they looked at me in admiration, I showed a golden plaque from my pocket.

The two look at the golden plaque resembling a feather in wonder. I put it back in my pocket.

“Wow… how did you get it?”

“I got it when I became friends with the owner there.”

“…friend…?”

Veronica flinched and stared at me. And after hesitating, he opened his mouth.

“Are you closer than me?”

“no.”

Even after the event, I’m less close than Veronica, whom I often see.

If I had to classify them into grades, I would say they are at the level of adventurers who meet and work together from time to time. the boss there.

“That, is that so? Huhu. Indeed, the wise man’s best friend is of course me.”

“…Ugh. Master’s only disciple is me.”

“Who said what?”

Anyway, I’m going to a nice place, but I’m worried that the two of them will keep fighting as we go.

Of course, my high-level jokes and songs are prepared to ease the awkward atmosphere, but I hope they play in a pleasant atmosphere.

“And here’s something the princess might like.”

“What is it?”

“There’s a duel tournament there.”

“Huh?! Really?!”

“Yes. And if you win the duel competition, you can get a limited card. Princess. You’re making a new deck these days, right?”

“yes…”

After learning from me, Lucille was quite interested in dueling.

The first time I did it, I was a bit sloppy, but my skills were improving day by day, probably because I had a basic competitive desire and also used my brain well.

I heard from the ladies-in-waiting that he won the last time he faced the head lady-in-waiting.

“…are you still doing that?”

Veronica looked aloof, as if she hadn’t been very interested in playing cards. Tsk. friend. I feel sorry for you who don’t know the charm of dueling.

“Because it’s so much fun? Anyway. Tickets for tournaments are given to those who stay overnight, so why don’t you try participating as an experience?”

“Is Master participating?”

“Uh… no.”

“why?”

“The winner is not allowed to participate.”

Of course, I participated in the tournament there, and I won and got several items and limited cards. I took my deck out of my bag and showed me a card. A sparkling iridescent card. It was an ultra rare card.

“An old-fashioned resort card. When used, ATK and MAG increase, and Duelist’s HP is restored.”

“Wow… that looks pretty good.”

“Because there aren’t many cards with just such good effects. Even the princess should try and get one. It’s a fraudulent card to the point where it’s banned in some tournaments.”

“Yes!”

Pretty excited, her eyes twinkled. After laughing at her, I asked the bored-looking Veronica.

“But can you go with me like this? Didn’t you think about it?”

“Hmm. Well, rather than that…”

She glanced at Lucille and smiled.

“I think it’s better here. But didn’t you say there’s a swimming pool there too?”

“Uh. There’s a swimming pool.”

“…Really?

Veronica laughed bashfully.

It was as if he had made up his mind about something.

Anyway, you can’t go right away. Once Veronica returned to the church, Lucille and I went back to the palace.

By the time she entered the palace, Lucille seemed to hesitate for a moment, then spoke in a small voice.

“The warrior…”

“Yes.”

“They say he’s going back to the battlefield.”

“Is that so?”

“Didn’t you hear?”

“I heard you’re coming back.”

While I was working, Claire came over and hinted at me, telling me to go and work hard.

In fact, there was no reason for the warrior party members to remain on the battlefield. Especially Evangeline.

As the elves’ forest is shaken like this, maybe she, the hero of the elves, can stay and help lead the elves.

Otherwise, you could go to rest because you worked hard.

Up to that point, I just thought I was going to do it, not part-time job, and moved on.

“Evangeline-nim… looks a little tired.”

“okay.”

“Aren’t you worried, Master?”

I just thought that I would do well. As long as they don’t block my path, I can’t say anything.

And he wasn’t a child of one or two years old, and no matter how much I thought about it, there was no reason why I should take care of him there.

Although they have feelings of sorry and good feelings for me in their own way…

It’s up to me to decide whether or not to accept it.

“I see…”

“Anyway, did this go well?”

“Yes. I think I did it to the extent that Master was satisfied.”

Lucille clenched her fists and was delighted, and I was also delighted.

“The growth of the princess is a great joy to me. At this rate, there will be nothing more to teach you soon.”

“Eh? Eh? Oh, isn’t it?!”

After checking Lucille’s growth rate, I shook my head. At this level of growth, it seemed that he would be able to earn the S-class teacher achievement in a few months.

“If the princess grows up to my satisfaction, I will leave.”

“Yes, yes?! Why…?”

“I have a lot of work to do.”

“That. Is it necessary?”

Lucille would know. No, I know. That I wandered outside while serving as her mentor.

That’s why I’m not satisfied with the position of Lucille’s mentor.

It had only been mentioned indirectly so far, but it was the first time he had mentioned it directly like this, so Lucille seemed quite surprised.

But even that didn’t change anything.

When Lucille went in to report to the Queen, I returned to the room and found the woman standing in front of the room.

It was Clare.

Claire, who was just messing with her hair, was taken aback when she saw me.

“Ahahaha… Hyeonu…”

“Why are you here?”

“That. Hey… I want to ask you something. Are you okay?”

“It doesn’t matter. Come in.”

I went into the room and sat down on a chair. Claire hesitantly sat down, let out a small sigh, and then got to the point.

“Evangeline seems to be a bit… heartbroken. She’s worse than before.”

“Ohh. So?”

“I asked other alchemists, healers, and priests to look at it, but it seems that her mental problems cannot be resolved.”

“okay?”

“Yeah. So, if you don’t mind… is there any medicine I can prescribe?”

“This will do.”

There was a medicine made in the elven forest. It is a top-notch mental sedative that helps reduce mental problems or excessive stress.

“Isn’t this precious?”

“It’s not that valuable.”

It was only because there was no recipe until now, and since the recipe was released to the Alchemist Guild, the price would be high, but it wouldn’t be as difficult to obtain as it is now.

Claire looked back and forth between the medicine in her hand and me, then sighed.

“Ahahaha… you’re saving us again.”

“You guys worked hard this time too. Is that what you mean? Then go. I have some work to do.”

At my celebration, Claire seemed to want to say something more, but couldn’t bring it up.

Then, as he was about to pull out the warrior’s sword, he muttered in a tone mixed with anticipation.

“Hey. Sooner or later, a festival will be held in the capital.”

“right.”

“Then… Who are you going with?”

The capital’s summer festival.

I used to go with Claire.

I looked at her and smiled, and she, noticing the answer to my smile, hesitated and moved her lips.

“…I guess…”

Clearly sullen, she smiled and swung the warrior’s sword. After she quietly entered the created portal and disappeared completely, I saw a poster on the wall.

As Claire said, the summer festival is getting closer, so I need to think of someone to go with.

You have to do this one more time to unlock the achievement.

It is known that the plague in the forest of elves was resolved, and in the process, Lucille took the lead and formed a council with each race.

Of course, the Church gained quite a lot by acting as my sage, but the Kingdom also gained a lot.

As soon as it became known, the evaluation of Lucille, which had been low until now, began to rise rapidly, and thanks to this, the sense of stability for the next queen increased, and the current queen seemed quite satisfied.

As a result, the evaluation of me also rose vertically, so this job can be generally evaluated as excellent.

“Let’s go.”

Lucille and Veronica approached the carriage prepared in front of the castle.

Lucille in a snow-white dress, and Veronica in her usual black priestly uniform.

The two looked at each other and said a word.

“Does it look like strawberry cake?”

“The Cardinal is always black. Even on vacation.”

Good day, stop fighting. I looked at the two reacting sharply towards each other, then quickly turned my gaze to the other side.

“Hey~ I’m going to play with the sage! By the way, sage! If you go to Raidin, you know that there’s a duel tournament? You won’t be able to participate this time, but I plan to participate. Would you like to see my deck? I’m aiming to win this tournament with that shaman’s deck. there is…”

“This time, I will definitely do a performance in Reidin.”

Riding in the driver’s seat of the wagon were Wilkers, a chatty sorcerer, and Rark, a bard with a slightly unusual sensibility.

The reason they were riding was simple.

A request came in from Raidin, and on the way, they asked me to go together.

Both of them were hired as escorts by the royal family because they were trustworthy in terms of skills and identity, and thanks to that, we ended up going together like this.

No, an escort was recruited from the Lily Knights, so why did they call?

Lily Knight’s skills are sh*t?! The Knights of the Kingdom are so insecure?!

It is deplorable. really.

I haven’t even started yet, but it’s already starting to hurt.

“But what’s the point of coming here?”

“Investigation request. Investigation request. Don’t mind the wise man.”

Lark hummed and grabbed the reins of the wagon. And Wilkes…

“By the way, the wise man’s disciple. Have your card skills improved?

“Ah. Ahahaha… yes…”

Lucille laughed awkwardly, and Wilkes roared again. Veronica, who was watching the scene, smiled and said to me.

“This trip. Don’t you think something is going to happen?”

“Ah. No way.”

No matter how many people are like this, even though it’s uneasy from the start…

Will there be anything?
