Living a Maiden Game in Hard Mode
The Monarchy of Diete has two supreme decision-making bodies.
They are the “National Council” and the “Lords’ Conference”. While the former determines the national policy, the latter decides the star system policy.
The Monarchy’s initial purpose in advancing into several star systems was to diversify the risk so that the Royal Citizens could survive in other star systems in the event that the Coalition destroyed the Diete Star System.
Therefore, it should be permissible for each star system to act independently to ensure the safety of its own star system based on the Monarchy’s policy.
If other star systems were destroyed, it was imaginable that their own star system would also be in danger, and as a result, they were working together.
After the realization of the Spirit King’s realm and the emergence of the Transition Gate, this became a thing of the past.
“Enemy ships cannot warp within one light-day of the star system. Even if they invaded at a high speed of 300 million kilometers per hour, the minimum time to reach an inhabited planet is 86 hours.”
“Travel time from the inhabited planet to the Transition Gate, less than 3 hours via Salamander”
The Monarchy Star Systems, which has been turned into a realm by the Spirit King, could use the Transition Gate to evacuate its inhabitants to other star systems before the enemy could reach the inhabited planet.
Once the star systems are connected by the Transition Gate, there is no need to consider risk dispersion.
As a result, the Lords’ Conference changed from the traditional form of deciding the policy of each star system to the same form as the National Council, which decided the national policy. Therefore, it is possible to hold the National Council and the Lords’ Conference, which were similar in nature, at the same time.
However, the qualified participants of both meetings are all distinguished.
The National Council consists of the Queen, two princes, the Prime Minister, 15 Court Bureaucrats, Senior Military Officers at the rank of Generals and above, the Speaker of the House of Lords, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
The Lords’ Conference consists of Heads of Senior Aristocratic Households above the Count who had territories, and their designated successors.
Each and every one of them is a member who can influence the life of one Royal citizen in just one second, and the meeting that brings them all together must be of great importance.
Half a year ago, when Hart had the meeting held, he had changed course after taking over the Solar System and announced his decision to rapidly invade Ōizumi and Honyō, mobilizing the Royal Army and Lords’ Forces on a massive scale. It was inevitable that the government leaders and Lords would gather together to hold an urgent meeting.
When Hart requested that the second meeting be held simultaneously at the Castle in the Sky, the residence of the Marquis of Amakawa, Yuna braced herself, believing that it was a matter of great importance.
“The situation isn’t that critical now, is it?”
When questioned by Yuna, Hart reflected on the current situation.
The Monarchy has territory in seven star systems, excluding the Machaon and Solar Systems, and as far as Hart knows, security has been established.
Tenka, which lost a large number of warships in the Battle of Apollo, has the equivalent of only about 100,000 cruiser-class ships remaining, which is about 3 million Israfel crafts in terms of war potential.
In order for Tenka to take down the Machaon Star System, they must turn the Machaon Star System into the realm of the Daemon King, and then deploy fighter crafts instead of battleships on a large scale.
About four to five months have passed since Tenka and the Hercules System were connected.
Hundreds of millions of Tenkans would be able to fly with fighter crafts and attack the system. However, with that level of skill, they would only be targets to be unilaterally shot down by a large ship. Tenka should not yet be able to deploy fighter craft pilots in actual combat.
Hart decided that it was hard to say that there was an impasse at the moment. The situation is probably one of the best since Yuna’s coronation.
After all, despite being in the same Royal capital, Queen Yuna was relaxing on the balcony of the Castle in the Sky, not in the Royal Castle.
Along with the moderately shaded sunlight, the sea breeze of the Mediterranean Sea flows in.
Government officials are prohibited from entering the Castle in the Sky, so there is no unscrupulous person to disturb Yuna and Hart’s time together.
The quiet passing of time made Yuna forget her hectictroubled daily life for a moment.
“That’s right. It’s not a desperate situation.”
Hart’s assurance deeply relieved Yuna.
On the modern battlefield where Spirits and Daemons flew about, the only person on the Monarchy’s side who could understand these phenomena is Hart. Therefore, if Hart says it is safe, it is safe, and if he says it’s dangerous, things must be judged as dangerous.
As for the situation where a person who is not the supreme authority of the state holds sole control of the spirit crystals, Yuna, as Queen, considers it undesirable for the state’s management system.
However, Hart’s power is also the biggest backing that supports the Queen’s power. She also understood that in the current situation where she had to lead the country with the Lords in tow, it was something that could never be let go.
“Then, in a less desperate situation, what would my Fleet Admiral want to do by holding a meeting?”
Yuna asked with some jest, to which Hart responded with an equal or greater mixture.
“For the time being, I want to promote the two cats lying there, so I would like to order the Lords to cooperate.”
Yuna extended her gaze to the corner of the balcony that Hart pointed to.
There, a white cat and a black cat were lying down together.
The purple-eyed white cat was lying down holding the black cat’s body with its left paw.
The black cat showed no particular reaction and was meditating, letting the white cat do as it pleased.
Yuna, who didn’t notice the two cats at all, was surprised, but when she instantly imagined spirits and regained her composure, she asked again.
“Cute cats. Where did they come from?”
Hart, who made Yuna and Philine wear cat ears, is recognized by Yuna and the others as a serious cat lover.
When she gave him a benevolent look, Hart felt the need to defend himself.
“Those two cats are spirits I received from the Spirit Emperor Mira in the Apollo Star System. I didn’t order them to take the form of cats.”
No instructions have been issued, but it cannot be said that he didn’t have an influence on them.
Humans and animals that raise children have appearances and voices that make it easy for children being raised to feel an attachment to their parents. And parents are stimulated by the appearance and voice of their children and their instincts to nurture them.
Hart, who the two spirits treat as a father, could not be accused of having nothing to do with the fact that they imitated the appearance of a cat, to which Hart is easily attached, even if they are innocent.
“And I’m sorry to make the comparison, but they’re stronger than the senior spirit Sharon who has a contract with Yuna, so you shouldn’t underestimate them.”
Hart blatantly deflected the topic, but the content of the conversation could not be ignored.
“Sharon, are these cats really stronger than you?”
“The difference in power is about the size of the Sun and Jupiter. Of course, I am Jupiter.』
Sharon, who used the sun and Jupiter as a metaphor, had not only Yuna but also Hart tilting his head.
The two celestial bodies differ by a factor of 10 in size and by a factor of 1000 in mass. It was unclear which standard was used, but it was clear that there was a difference that could not be matched.
“Lulu, Maya, please return to your non-cat forms.”
At Hart’s direction, the white and black cats glowed and transformed into a white-haired girl dressed in blue and a dark-haired Gothic Lolita girl.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Papa’s contract spirit, Lulu. I inherited the knowledge from my mom, who was his previous contracted spirit, so please know that I am the new spirit who has taken over. If you need me, I can take care of you through Sharon.’
“…… ah, un.”
After the introduction, Yuna was stunned for the first time in a long time since her coronation.
Lulu introduced herself while bowing, but her purple eyes were like those of a cat observing a small animal, and there was no indication that she wanted to be too friendly.
For Lulu, who is a high-dimensional life form with a fixed contractor, Yuna, who is not her contractor, is probably not an object to become intimate with.
In the process of being promoted to an official Spirit King, she may have only exchanged greetings because the other party is a partner to obtain cooperation for the convenience of Hart, the contractor.
When Hart recognized this, Lulu added the words.
『Papa’s first daughter is Lulu, so please take care of me.』
“Hah!?”
Yuna immediately raised her voice of dissatisfaction at Lulu’s defiant words, who held up her right index finger and claimed that she was number one.
A high-pitched voice ran through the balcony, shaking Hart’s whole body like static electricity.
Apparently, Lulu’s gaze towards Yuna was not an observation from a higher dimensional life form to a lower dimensional life form, but part of a struggle between women who were assessing each other.
When a man intervenes in a fight between women, it doesn’t end well. Instinctively sensing this, Hart was at a loss as to whether to speak up or not.
“Hart, what is the meaning of this?”
The flames of anger flared up into an instant, and Hart’s thoughts were reduced to ashes.
“When creating a new spirit, only my magical power was used as a basis. Since Mira and I have a contract, we have a magical connection.”
Hart defended himself by saying that he had done nothing wrong, but the anger of Yuna, who had no such suspicions, did not subside at all.
“No, I don’t mean that. Why is she calling you Papa? Hart, do you recognize her as your daughter!?”
“No, she’s not my genetic daughter…”
If it’s a haphazard excuse to calm Yuna, it comes to Hart’s mind in a hurry.
If there was a younger girl in the neighborhood who was on good terms with him, even if she called him “onii-chan”, that doesn’t make him her biological brother. Such an explanation would only add fuel to the fire of Yuna’s anger, though.
After all, the main source of Yuna’s anger is directed at the current situation… If Tenka hadn’t declared war on the Monarchy, she would have married Hart three years ago, and her own child would have called Hart Daddy by now.
If you are a Royal citizen, you are usually considerate of Yuna’s sentiments.
It would be folly to make a fuss about the capital of a Queen who, at only 20 years old, is responsible for the survival of a nation with tens of billions of people, as if strangling your own neck. After two former Marquises were forced to self-judgment, such fools were rarely seen.
For Lulu, who is not even a human being, let alone a Royal Citizen, this is a matter that has nothing to do with her.
Lulu was born from the inheritance of creation energy and magical characteristics, so it can be interpreted that Hart is her father and Mira is her mother.
When Hart witnessed Lulu’s birth, he realized that for a spirit without a physical body, magical characteristics would be a substitute for genes.
Hart, who couldn’t deny Lulu, couldn’t say “I’m not your Papa” to Lulu who insisted on her roots.
“I wonder if this counts as cheating. Should I call the Ministry of Legal Affairs to confirm?”
“Stop. If the Queen calls for it, I will definitely be condemned.”
Yuna asked with a smile, to which Hart firmly objected.
The people of the Monarchy of Diete have the ethnicity to fight against undue pressure.
However, if the woman’s side of an engaged couple claims that “the man was unfaithful because someone had appeared to him claiming to be his daughter and the man would not deny it”, and asks for consent, no third party would resist even if it is mistaken.
If Hart were in the position of an uninvolved Ministry of Legal Affairs, he would say:
[Understandably, this is a new form of infidelity. Since there is no precedent, I would ask Her Majesty to decide what form of punishment to mete out.]
In short, he would condescendingly reply, “It’s okay to interpret it as an affair, so the parties concerned should resolve it amongst themselves.”.
In the end, the two are sent back to their discussion, but Yuna, who now has more evidence that the Ministry of Legal Affairs admitted to an affair, will condemn Hart even more.
Hart sighed involuntarily and then he chided Yuna.
“Don’t pull out the Family’s Treasure Sword so easily. Lulu is a senior spirit and a candidate for the new Spirit King. We will use Mars to promote her, and Alfrida can spread her realm in the Machaon System. There is another one, her sister, Maya. Maya, can you introduce yourself?”
Hart, who forcibly ended the conversation, introduced Maya, who had been left behind, to Yuna.
When Yuna heard that the Machaon Star System could be territorialized, she weighed herself in her capacity as Queen, and Lulu, who heard that it was time to introduce her sister, obediently withdrew, and the commotion subsided temporarily.
Maya, who was quietly observing the situation, gave a small nod and raised her right hand lightly to her chest while stating her name.
“I’m Maya, the second daughter of Dear Father Hart.”
Yuna, with blue veins pronounced on her temple, smiled at Hart.

After receiving the explanation, Yuna stared at the white and black cats in amazement, then summoned her own spirit Sharon to confirm the truth.“Sharon, are these cats really stronger than you?”
“The difference in power is about the size of the Sun and Jupiter. Of course, I am Jupiter.』
