Chapter 100: 100 - - CHAPTER IX -- HOLIDAY, COME OUT!

"Well... this is..."

In the dimly lit room, I couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

To tell the truth, the Dwarf King's request for the Lady Considine did not interest me. To be honest, it had almost nothing to do with the restoration of farmland, which is the main concern of this principality.

However, I decided to take a look at it anyway. I followed the directions to the Considie's room.

The inside of the room was nothing short of gorgeous. It was lined with luxurious furnishings. Although the curtains were drawn and the room was dimly lit, I could still recognize the value and luxury of the items in this room.

Like the room I have been given, this room seems to be equipped with a bathroom. Considie seems to be holed up in her bedroom.

......There he is, on the luxurious bed. He is sitting on his seat and has a sword by his side. What surprised me the most was that she had a ward around her.

As a warding master, I can tell. This is pretty good. Probably designed so that only those whom she allows can pass through it. It takes magic or swordsmanship of level 4 or above to break it. She probably has a level 3 warding skill.

"The princess has been sitting like this all day long, and she never wants to come out of the ward."

The chief priestess listens to me with a troubled look on her face.

"Is this ward kept up all day long? It's quite a m! I think I'm going to have to use a lot of m!

No, they are wired when someone comes in. Other than that..."

"I see. So, when you go to bed...

"You lock yourself in your room and rest."

This isn't a place to stay at home. It's just a shut-in. That's ridiculous.

The King is deeply distressed by the Princess's condition. The Marquis must get her back..."

"Why don't you just leave it as it is?"

What? What did you just say?"

"I think it's fine the way it is, don't you? There was a tension in my life. I think this kind of funky life is possible.

"Funky?"

"Is there anything wrong with a princess in this state?"

"The king..."

"No, let's think about it. You'll be in your room the whole time, so you'll be safe.

That's...

If you want to leave your room, it's easy. You just need a lot of vassals to watch over you. Eventually, M! will run out and you'll pass out. When that happens, we can pull him out of this room.

"Don't be silly!"

Considine is standing on the bed with a sword.

"You don't even know how I feel!"

I'm afraid I don't know how you feel.

"..."

She stares at me.

"Then why are you doing this?"

"... I must be punished."

"Punishment?"

"I... failed to see the conspiracy of Dr. Rekolnai and the Utonikas, and killed my mother. And I tried to defeat the Deer God without knowing his will. Furthermore, I told Lord Yury that my father was not qualified to be king, and I incited Garutō's brother to give the order to strike down the Deer God. Moreover, the adventurers who followed me were annihilated. This is all my fault. I must be punished."

"So, you're taking the blame and locking yourself in this room and ward."

Slowly, Considine nodded.

"When do you think Master Considine will leave this room?"

"I don't know. If I feel I am allowed, I will leave, and if not, I will not leave until I die.

"I'll take care of it, Princess..."

The chief priestess is in tears.

"Minsi, this is my punishment. There is no need for you to be sad.

"Princess..."

"That's right, Chief Princess. You don't need to be sad."

""What?""

Minsi stares at me and Considine is frozen in the middle of sitting up.

"I'm sure they can come out when they are hungry. In the meantime, why don't we go home?

"Marquis!"

"If you're going to be cooped up, Mr. Considine, you'll have to be thorough. It's too much trouble to rewire the place every time someone comes in, isn't it?"

I'm going to put some pretty strong wards on Considie.

"See, now no one can enter Master Considine's warding. It will continue to operate almost indefinitely. Now I don't have to go through the trouble of re-installing the wards. Wow, patty patty."

"What is it you've been up to since a moment ago! You've got to be kidding me! These wards!"

Considine pulls out his sword and slashes at the wards, but his sword is repelled. He continued to slash blindly, and finally his sword broke.

"My sword..."

"Right? Sturdy wards, right? You can safely retreat."

Marquis, what are you...

I am a warder by profession, after all.

Considine rolls her eyes in surprise.

"Come on, let's go home. I forgot to tell you. There's just one problem with the wards.... We can live with not being able to eat, but we can't go to the bathroom. I once locked up one of my students and he couldn't take it anymore. Right in front of everyone. Please be careful not to let that happen. Good bye."

I urge the headmistress to leave the room.

"Wait!"

A voice that sounds like an exclamation is heard over my back.

"Why are you doing this!"

"Why? You want to punish yourself, don't you? That's not punishment, so I made it so.

I don't remember you doing this to me!"

"You said you would leave this room if you felt you were forgiven, but what good would that do? It's just a matter of self-satisfaction for the high priestess, isn't it? Don't make me go along with that lousy three-sentence play."

You're so rude!

You're the one who's rude. The king sent me here to tell you that you're full of nonsense. You know what? It's other people who forgive sins. It's not my decision. If you feel that what you did is a sin, why don't you atone for it? Why don't you do it to make the person who caused you trouble feel better?"

"So this is how I do it!"

"Did someone order you to do that? Did you tell them that if they did, you would forgive their sins?"

That's not...

"No one told you that. No one said that. No one's asking you to do that.

"You don't... want... to...?"

Neither your mother nor the deer goddess are guilty. You didn't know. I'm sorry about the adventurers... but as far as I'm concerned we're both on the same side. I can't take the blame for the soldiers who didn't listen to their commander. The adventurers are to blame too.

That doesn't make me feel any better!

I don't give a shit. Then stop bothering me and punish yourself. Do you know how many people are inconvenienced by your selfishness and behavior? If you want to atone for your sins, then atone for those who are bothering you now."

Considinee is staring at me with her lips tightly engaged.

"If you must stay indoors, cripple yourself thoroughly. Wear shabby clothes, endure the heat and cold. And eat the bare minimum. Sit down and don't move a muscle from the moment you wake up until you go to bed. Don't put up wards when people come to you, but keep them up until you collapse.

"But you've gone too far to lock me up in a ward like this!"

"I say that's naive. Skin-friendly clothes, a comfortable bed, plenty of food, a chief concierge who takes care of you and takes care of you, a king..." "I'm not saying that's sweet. It's comfortable... Atonement begins with putting yourself in discomfort. Of course it's an environment that most people would agree is uncomfortable. The way you endure it is atonement. That's why I put up a powerful ward."

"..."

"My lady, if you can endure the inconvenience of being in the cripple until you are so far gone that you are rough around the edges, everyone will understand. If you don't like it, don't bother people any longer. Instead, do something that will help others.

Considie was crying. I released her warding and left the room, leaving her in the hands of the head mistress.

A few days later, I was standing with Mei and Gong in a large, empty, cultivated field. In front of us were dwarves, adventurers, and the second and third sons of noblemen, all of whom had been recruited additionally from the empire, several hundred people in all.

"Alright, let's get started! First, we must cut down the trees on this mountain! And the cut trees, take them to the dwarves! Dwarves, I want you to process that wood into square timber!"

Men begin to move in a waving manner. Among them is a Dwarf woman wielding an axe. Lady Considine. She comes here every day and joins the men in helping to restore the farmland. She also hid her identity and made me look like someone else. This, she says, is the kind of "atonement that doesn't cause trouble" that she came up with after much thought. The Dwarf King and I both decided to watch over her without saying a word. I am sure she will grow even more as she interacts with different people.

Summer was just around the corner.
