The subject of the nobles, who heard the King's announcement, became a choice for the Jins: The Sword of Dawn. Amur, who had been followed about Chris until earlier, went instead with a new plate to see if he was in a better mood because Chris was no longer talking about it.
"Don't make all this noise."
"Well, it's bad for the Jins, but we'll be easier for that."
Members of the 'Oracion', starting with me, are supposed to say that the rear shield is royal (Amur is the Southern Viscount family, but is treated as a set with us), and the Ootri family's power and influence have been widely known over the past few years, so there is no longer as much trouble involved as there used to be, but there are those who still feel like saying there are gaps. Especially after winning the tournament, a distant relative of my father and mother, who used to take care of me, shows up once in a while, so there are idiots who do evil crumbs to go along with it. By the way, I'm asking Maria and the King to see if we really know each other. If you're a friend of your father and mother, you'll soon find out because you have a good chance that Maria and the king know each other. By the way, when you meet with people who say they're friends, Maria and the King, and Grandpa, are supposed to be present.
"Tenma! Time to come over?
Lyon spoke from outside the space reserved for tournament participants as he talked to his grandfathers about the 'Dawn Sword'. Originally, the act of nobility speaking out to the participants in this way is reprehensible, but when I was the one being called, and I found out that it was Lion who was calling, the nobles and participants who were surprised around me felt like saying 'Is it the usual thing' and went back to each story.
"Whoa! I'm coming!
"Uhm. Have something delicious!
Trying to get back to Rion, he followed me as Amur said what looked great, but those who stood around listening didn't seem to think anything in particular when they heard the words. That's the same with Lion. Instead, "I'm already ready!" He answered with his chest stretched out.
"Exactly. With three of them, you can get a good place."
"Three helpful people!
"Don't compliment me. You can light it."
"I don't think I'm complimenting you in particular?
"As far as Amur goes, you feel more like a fool. Well, the usual."
"In Mr. Lyon's case, you can't help it if they say so."
"That's a little..."
"Dear sister-in-law, isn't that too much for a boulder...?
Leon took me to the terrace at the party venue, and because of Albert and Cain, the other nobles were just watching far away.
"Mm! Drill and primera...... and who?
"So it's not a drill! You, I would say absolutely deliberate!
"Yeah? I have no idea what you're talking about. Mr. Drill the Twingle?"
"What is it, that monstrous name! Is that what happens when you have a person with that name!
"Wrong. Mr. Gurgle von Twindrill."
"No!"
"You two, why don't we get there because we can't talk about it?
Primera stopped the two kidding (Dori...... Eliza just got involved). Next to Primera, a familiar woman looked at Amur and Eliza with a surprised face.
"Right. First, I'd like to introduce you to Tenma and Amur who don't know her."
Cain moved on to introducing the woman by changing the subject before Amur and Eliza's protests.
"Tenma, this is my fiancée's."
"I'm Sierra von Ivrick, the second daughter of the Count Ivrick family. Call me Sierra."
If I thought I'd seen it, I was Cain's fiancée. Well, I just had a light meeting when it was a royal castle library or a city library, and it was the first time I'd heard a voice.
"Mmmm! Mmmm...... giri allies!
Amur stared into his chest before greeting Sierra and said such rude things. Sierra fled to hide behind Primera, feeling something ominous in Amur's gaze. By the way, that's what Cain was saying later, but Sierra said he had an average degree, bigger than Mr. Chris, or something to say about having trouble reacting. For God's sake, I didn't want you to talk about your fiancée's breasts like you would other men. No, seriously.
"Still, betting on the temperament doesn't taste good anymore."
"Right. It's almost a return. I have to bet. It feels that way, we're all betting, and someone I know who works under Zain lamented that he's made too little money on his torso in the last few years. If this happens, not only will you anticipate the winner, but will you make a lottery to win second or third place or from first to third place!... or you were abandoning yourself."
I know it feels like a single win, a double win, or a triple series of singles when it comes to horse racing, but unlike in previous life when it comes to processing with computers, calculations are complicated in this world where people handle everything with their hands, so the idea is good but difficult to execute.
"The quick thing would be for His Majesty to request that Tenma decline her appearance... but then, I guess it wouldn't be possible because the accusations from the people would be intense"
"Then why don't you let Tenma fight the winner of the tournament without saying she's in the hall or something?
Lyon comes up with a proposal for Albert, but when he heard it, Albert shook his head sideways.
"You won't be able to do that either. The idea of entering the hall may be good, but letting him fight the winner will mean that Tenma will have to be restrained for the duration of the tournament. There is also the question of how much reward must be available to detain an adventurer as long as Tenma, and Tenma is an adventurer in the first place, not a knight or a soldier belonging to the country. Reformers will make a fuss that not letting them participate is an act of depriving adventurers of their liberty in the name of His Majesty the King"
Even though they've become smaller and more adult lately than before, they still retain a force second only to the royalty, so they'll try to use whatever they are if they get a chance.
"If you're asking me not to answer, I don't have to answer..."
"Even if the temper is good, the people won't be convinced. If the reformists touch around that His Majesty turned his hand there, it would be royalty's... No, the people would think it was His Majesty's doing"
That was the trouble. No matter how much me and the king said otherwise, the question of whether there was any deal, because me and the royal friends are known throughout the kingdom, should remain no matter how anyone explains it.
"I don't want to get involved because it's a pain in the ass, but the king will definitely come and talk about it...... seriously, it's a pain in the ass. Why don't you go play in the south for a while?
"Mm-hmm. It's best to do that! The south is welcome!
The south will make noise in the south, but there is little political difficulty because it's basically a noise of brain muscle thoughts over there. Well, it's easier to understand when you say foolish noises, because there are many people who will treat you favorably if you show strength and you're a long way from the Wang capital in distance, so it's a great way to get away from trouble.
and so on, and thinking of escaping from the King's Capital,
"Don't bother with that. Do you want me to travel to the south after next year's tournament?
A king came to this place. Next door is Caesar and Zain. The smell of every trouble was pumping.
"What, he seemed to be talking about something interesting, but what was he talking about?
The king saw the Alberts, saying so. You won't talk to me, so I guess you're asking me to talk to the three men under my command. And as the king thought, the three told the kings what they were talking about with me without getting lost.
"Hmmm. Still think so too tenma...... totally, really troublesome story"
"Your Majesty, it's a hassle. Then I'm sorry. It's a story. We need you to be more serious."
The king made a face that he was bothered by his heart, but was bewitched by Zain, who was next door.
"Mmm... well, it's a hassle, but it's a problem that needs to be solved. And that's why Tenma. What do you think we should do?
"I don't know. Do not throw round. Bring that to me after you discuss it with Caesars."
"Well, that makes sense. But taking what we've talked about to Tenma means it's already a decision. That means an order from the royal family. As far as we're concerned, I want to talk to you about it because I want to avoid it. You know what I mean."
Caesar politely explained to the king of round throws to block his exit.
"Wouldn't it be okay if Lord Caesar took the throne already?
"... I'm starting to think so too"
To my whining, the king agreed...
"Be still very dear to Your Majesty... I need you to be in the throne for a while now because you are well"
For that reason, Lord Caesar said he would not yet succeed to the throne. Maybe he thinks that when the king quits the king while he's healthy, he starts to feel free to do whatever he wants. Well, I think so too. And I feel like my most likely victim is me, so I'm a little weaker as Caesar says... and I want you to give me the throne after I'm grown up. Then Maria would put a collar on it and keep it down.
"Well, Caesar's right, I want to talk to you about Tenma once and for all, so I want you to wait until it's over to leave the King's Capital."
"Ha... Got it"
When the king took the pledge from me, he left saying that he would not be able to stay here any longer slowly.
"When a king shows up like a king, it's usually time to bring trouble."
"No, Tenma. Exactly. Isn't that disrespectful?
"Even if they say I'm disrespectful, I'm not your subordinate and I'm the one you're asking for... and that's not as respectful as the Alberts who sold my information"
"No! I'm sorry about that, but even if I blame Albert... hey?
"That's right! Even Albert wasn't offended... offended... was he?
"Albert, for the sake of birth, I sell my friends... I made a sentence!
Returning to Albert, who had been cautious, in half true to half true, Lion and Cain came on board (though Lion was likely to have said it in vegetables) and chanted a sentence that Amur had not haiku all about stopping.
"No, wait! I didn't mean to! Elsa! Primera!
Albert was betrayed by Lion and Cain, and I guess he relied on Eliza and Primera in a grumpy mood...
"Anyway, Mr. Lion, Mr. Cain, and Amur, what Tenma is saying is not wrong."
"Regardless of how you say it, from Tenma's point of view, I can't help but say that's what your brother did, and from someone you don't know, you can say that Amur seems to be right."
We both said it wasn't a mistake, and we didn't cover for Albert. Sierra had a bitter laugh all the time while Eliza and Primera were talking, but she didn't deny it.
"Leaving Albert aside, you still have time to dance, so eat before then... needless to say"
Me, Amur and Lion were reaching for the meals and drinks the Alberts had prepared while the Primeras were snagging Albert.
"So Tenma, who are you dancing with first this year? Last year was Viscount Hannah, and before that was Amur, plus before that was Maria, right?
When asked if he remembered well, Cain returned, "That's all the attention I'm getting," he said. The way you put it, I guess there are others who remember.
"I don't have to dance to anything...... you're expecting me to be weird"
In the first year there was a kidnapping riot between Jeanne and Aura, so the party was cancelled before the dance, but the next year the dance took place as planned, dancing in the form of a half exposure to Maria. Well, since then, I've been talking to Maria and the Kings, so no one tried to invite me to the dance. From that following year, the dance opponent declared that he would confine himself to acquaintances or the winners of the tournament...... he was exposed to Amur in the middle of the words. And last year, Hannah, who had heard the story from Amur, was exposed to half the fun. Well, by limiting the terms of my dance opponent, I didn't have to dance with a woman I didn't know... I originally didn't know many women in the aristocratic relationship, so I've always been with just the same members, plus Amur and Chris are the only women among this year's winners, so if there's no one else who isn't dancing, I don't have to dance... and I realized that there are two people here who aren't dancing. Well, both of us don't seem to want to dance very much even if we're invited to the dance personally... but I decided to ask. If you ask me out and they say no, I'll decide not to dance this year.
"So, Miss Primera, can you dance the first song with me?
Of the two people who had never danced, the closest one (Primera) was invited first. Due to Primera's character, there was also the possibility that she wouldn't dance shy, but in that case it would just be a joke that she invited someone she knew to turn her down. But...
"Yes, gladly!
I responded to the invitation with two replies. Not surprisingly, let's be happy we found someone for the dance. Well, then I asked Sierra out, and for some reason I'm curious that she looked at me cold and said no... but Sierra, Amur and Lion. He looked like he had no choice, so I guess I did something wrong.
"Tenma, then me!
Amur will be booking Primera's next,
"Today, I'm only going to know someone I've never danced to, so I'm sorry, but give me a break"
"Mmm."
I wasn't convinced by that word alone, so I figured I'd do something about it, and Cain and Eliza convinced me to help. It was helpful, but the fact that these two moved at the same time seems a little scary that there's something behind it.
"Well, time is running out, and should we move closer to the venue?
In Cain's words, we tried to move to each partner near the venue...
"Wait a minute! I don't have my opponent!
"I... don't mind if I can't dance with Tenma. Lion, Gamba"
Amur rode reflexively on Lyon's scream, but soon he seemed to recall saying I wouldn't dance, losing interest along the way.
"In Lyon's case, you don't have a partner to dance with first, do you? The fiancée candidate is in training at Borderlands."
"In that situation, it wouldn't be a good idea to invite other women. Well, it's every year."
As of every year, Lion, who has no partner, struggles with his dance opponents and asks for a noble woman under the Borderline Uncle family umbrella... most of the time a widow or elderly woman was the opponent and he had less chance to dance with a woman his age.
"Dancing with Brother Lion is a bit..."
Rion's dance, which is even repelled by primera, is considerably underrated. According to Albert, it's hard to dance with Lion without a pretty good dancer because he has the technology but remembers it the wrong way and couldn't get a chance to fix it. For those reasons, it was appreciably as much about me as it was four years ago. It should be noted that my assessment of the dance of Lyon and I was equal as of four years ago, and now I'm better up there. Well, not enough to make a fool of Lion in dance because he's not a skilled man to be proud of when he says he's improved over before.
"Well, it's like time and... guys, why don't we just leave Lion alone and go dancing?
"Right. It's too much for Lion, and I want to avoid saying that everyone here is not going to participate."
As Cain and Albert put it, a man of great nobility like the one representing the royalty couldn't possibly be absent from the dance all in one place or another, and we started moving in disregard of Lion, who ran off looking for his opponent.
Going to the dance venue set aside in the center of the party venue, there was a pair of scuffling to secure a prominent spot… but when the pair of Albert and Eliza, Cain and Sierra showed up, the pair blocking in front of them gave way in unison, so they could proceed to the center of the venue without difficulty. By the way, me and Primera agreed to dance as inconspicuously as possible, so we tried to move to the end of the venue, but because Eliza pulled Primera forcefully, nature and we were near the Alberts...... to be taken to the most prominent center of the venue.
"Has Tenma arrived?"
In the central part there was also a pair of kings and mariahs, caesars and isabellas. Others, being the only civilian, were in a good place to be, as all the top nobles are gathering in the centre.
"So... Primera, shall we move towards the edge"
"Right."
Either someone with their own dancing or a few idiots, such as dancing in a place like that. So when I suggested to Primera to leave the scene and dance in a discreet place, Primera understood what it meant without having to ask why and immediately started moving......
"Can I dance here?"
"Tenma is a guest invited by the royal family, and her partner Primera is a warrant for the Duke of Sanga family. Nobody's complaining."
The king and Caesar grabbed my shoulder and stopped moving,
"Primera, if you've come this far, be prepared for the future."
"Getting here and running is like putting mud on a sign at the Duke of Sanga's house."
Maria and Isabella had refused to leave Primera. Convinced by the royal pair, we had no choice but to return to the centre and dance near the Alberts.
"Welcome home, Tenma. If those two catch you, you won't get away with it no matter how much."
"There's no way Primera can get this far and get away with it."
Evacuating near the Alberts, a voice was quickly heard from the two of them. Cain used to say it in a way that made fun of me, but Albert used to say it in a way that made fun of me. Sure, I'd say it's ill-dressed to come this far and get away with it, or as a nobleman, I think it's an act that other nobles can lick...
"Wouldn't it have been nice if the Alberts hadn't forced us to bring them here in the first place?
I don't mind being licked because I'm not a nobleman, and Primera says I'll be out of aristocracy in the future, so it doesn't really matter. Well, that wouldn't be the case if they brought out the Duke of Sanga house, but even if they knew that and ran away, I think the Duke of Sanga would just laugh a lot.
To make that point,
"Ah! Look, Tenma. It's time to start."
"Sounds like it. You should both get ready."
I said and got away with it.
"Absolutely, those two... well, I can't help but mourn, and let's get in position too"
"Right."
That's how the dance started... but I don't think I managed to shame it... Well, there were a few small failures, but there were no fatal ones, so let's just say good.
"Exactly tired... if this is it, I'd feel easier doing another personal fight... good luck with the primera too"
"Good luck to you too, Tenma. But the idea is absolutely strange."
"Well, that's the right reaction..."
"See you at the temple. Well, as much as I dance, the game feels easier."
"My grandfather didn't do this. I don't know what else to do with Tenma."
After the dance, me and Primera moved to the table where Grandpa and Lady Ernesto were relaxing.
The dance, initially intended to dance only one song back, was caught by Maria after the first song, and even later, she danced with Isabella, Eliza and Sierra and danced with Primera again.
Even though it was an unexpected number of times, I ran away from the dance venue because I was tired of dancing six songs to keep standing... but there was still a nobleman who invited me, so I was free in the venue and yet escaped to where the greatest of them were. By the way, Primera was also dancing with the king and Caesar while I was dancing, and she seemed pretty tired mentally. At the same time, I didn't have to say anything when I said I was going to Master Ernest's for some resistance to the royalty.
"Nevertheless, the first dance was terrible, but it gradually got better. The last dance was like someone else. Well, it wasn't as much a change as a junior became an intermediate."
Master Ernest's way of saying it is a bit awful, but let's think he praises you for improving.
"Sure, it was easier to dance the second time compared to the first"
"Well, there was an overly luxurious example around."
Dear Caesar, Albert, Cain and other nobles...... by the way, the king is good at being good too...... it was like saying Caesar's inferior compatibility, and he was a little inferior to the Alberts, so he didn't set an example. And I guess Maria and Isabella also had a good lead in making it easier to dance.
"Now, I guess if you dance more than once, you'll improve... the dance itself, because you don't really like it, you just have to be able to dance at the very least. Still, Primera was a good dancer. That's right, lady of the Duke's house."
"Well, dancing is like a mandatory subject for nobility. But I prefer to move my body outside of dance."
"Chengcheng. It's not like we're just partnering."
"I'm sure your lord can't talk about people either."
Master Ernesto deceived me, but when I reacted, I just rejoiced, so I ignored him. Primera was on the verge of reacting, but couldn't speak out because Grandpa made contact with the timing of the penetration into Master Ernest.
"Tenma, do you have a minute?
"Master Lyle, where have you been?
Master Lyle, whom I had never seen before in the venue, approached me inconspicuously and spoke in a different voice.
"Do me a favor. The 'Dawn Sword' under discussion, but is to be summoned by the Wang Capital soon. At that time, there is going to be a dispute over which noblemen will take care of… well, which noblemen's breathtaking accommodation will make them stay. If they let me stay in the royal castle or royalty-related places, there's no problem, because they've already told me that the royals surround the temples" orations. "
"So you want me to take care of the gins at the Ootri house"
"Well, in short, yes."
It means that the Jins should give way to other nobles than the Royals supposedly surround us, but I want to avoid taking the Jins to other nobles because the dungeons attacked by The Sword of Dawn are those in Seigen under Royal jurisdiction. So by letting them stay at my place, which I know of the Jins, they want to keep other nobles out of hand and indirectly show that the Jins are royalty.
"I don't mind if the Jins... if they explain and say no, give it up"
"That's okay, thank you"
That's all I'm saying, Master Lyle left somewhere.
"I thought I could get away from being a pain in the ass, but you end up getting involved... well, I can't help it"
"Hmm, I might buy some extra grudges if I hide the jinns... well, I guess it's the nobles hostile to the royalists who resent us, so I just can't help but think it's the same as usual"
"Well, I guess it doesn't mean more enemies. The resentment will deepen..."
Nobles on the side of royalty and royalty may give up that there may be indirect gains, even if I crush my chances of winning the Jins, but if I try to be a hostile faction like the Reformers, I will buy more enemies, so I will buy resentment. Well, even more so now that the reformists hate me.
"Whatever, we're talking about what the Jins think."
"Well then... the Jins don't want any trouble either, so you should think it's almost certain you're staying at our place"
There's going to be more trouble because of the jinns! I thought... but after this party, my indiscretion caused a lot of noise.
