I want to make all sorts of equipnt, but I couldn’t quite focus on those tasks.
Marnie frequently practiced in the training hall, steadily improving her Axe Technique Skill.
Today, Laeva was planning to make her own equipnt after she finishes installing lighting fixtures, plumbing, and Toilet MDs into the dormitory and administrative building.
Sophia and Maria were talking care of the children.
Akane and Lulu-chan apparently had business in our shop in the Royal Capital, so they teleported there using the gate.
anwhile, I was supposed to go next door because Madam Lumia called for , but she was already in my house since morning.
「Ufufu, you really are so adorable.」
Madam Lumia was sitting on the sofa, holding Etoile in her arms.
「You just ca back to your country, is it alright that you’re back here again?」
「Fufu, before that, let’s drink the tea that was kindly brewed for us before it cools.」
「Sigh.」
After returning Etoile to Maribelle, Madam Lumia elegantly sipped her tea. Just by the seeing her mannerism, it made admire her as a queen. Mimir-sama moved just as gracefully which made think how amazing royalty could be.
「Takumi-kun, I have decided to live here.」
「Eh?」
Once finished with her tea, the statent that Madam Lumia suddenly uttered surprised .
「W-what do you an?」
「My, it is exactly as it sounds. Despite how I may seem, I have lived a constrained life in the confines of the Royal Castle. Is it not ti for to live leisurely and freely? Moreover, I can watch Etoile-chan’s growth here.」
As Madam Lumia’s proclamation of her immigration to the Sanctuary had left in a daze, Mimir-sama had co guided in by Maribelle.
「Mother, are you serious?」
「Ah, Mimir-sama.」
「Pardon the intrusion, Takumi-sama. Mother had started making unreasonable demands, yet I was unable to stop her……」
「My, unreasonable? How unthinkable. I believe it is perfectly reasonable for a mother to wish to stay by her daughter’s side.」
「In that case, if I were to return to the country, will you return with ?」
「Yes, that is, if you were to return, Mimir.」
「Kuh, Mother is so unfair. You said that knowing that I have no desire to return to the rigid country now.」
「Naturally. You are my daughter. I know you like the back of my hand.」
「Now, now, please calm down as well, Mimir-sama.」
I tried to calm down Madam Lumia and Mimir-sama who started quarreling in my living room.
「So are you really going to live next door?」
「Yes, if I am next to Takumi-kun’s mansion, I can have tea with Madam Elizabeth whenever I wish to, and above all, I can et Etoile-chan at any ti.」
I’m glad she had taken a liking to Etoile, but that’s not a reason to co live in the Sanctuary for, is it?
「Did you have a conversation with father?」
「Oh my, where I live does not require that man’s permission.」
「No no no, it does. Madam Lumia, you are the Queen. It is impossible for you to not need the approval of King Yggurle.」
「Oh, that is the case in a Human country. Alas, Yggurle Kingdom is an Elven country. The rules are different from a normal country as well.」
「Please do not lie with a straight face. Mother!」
Because Madam Lumia spoke in her usual tone, I nearly believed her.
「Moreover, this could benefit you too, Takumi-kun.」
「Benefit ?」
「Yes. Because I have retired as the Queen, it ans I can enjoy my life here. That’s why, I thought I could help you with your work. The maids I had brought with are all capable as well.」
「No, having the Queen of Yggurle Kingdom here would not be a good idea, wouldn’t it?」
「That’s why I’m saying that I retired as the Queen. I am here simply as Lumia.」
Madam Lumia spoke absurdities so nonchalantly that both Mimir-sama and I were wracking our brains over what we should do.
This Queen was normally a calm and gentle woman, but when she’s like this, it’s a bit…… no, way out there.
「Iruma-sama, I will make contact with my father imdiately, as such, may I ask you to please hold off on this matter?」
「Yes, of course.」
「Oh my, it will yield the sa result even if you contact that man.」
「Mother, please stay silent for a mont!」
「My my, Takumi-kun~ Mimir is being an to ~」
「Jeez! Mother!」
「…………」
I should just disappear.
I can’t stand this.
To , had it not been for their backgrounds, I would have loved to have both Madam Rosary and Madam Lumia’s help with the work.
Both are quick-witted, and could hold their own against nobles and rchants.
Ahh, I want to lock myself in the workshop.
