Chapter 394: 394 - - 第三百九十四话 急ぐべし

In the days following the meeting with Rico, Meek's condition had changed drastically. The one who was more surprised than anyone else at the change was none other than his grandmother.

"......... you look like a different person."

"Yes. I think so, too."

Meek is in front of us right now, playing make-believe with the children in the dining room of the imperial mansion. The distraught Meek of a few days ago is nowhere to be seen, just a girl playing with her daughters with a cheerful smile on her face.

Since that day, Meek has been staying in this house. It has only been a few days, but she has already gotten to know the children and is now a good big sister to them. Rico always spends the evenings with her, she says, and they talk about nothing else.

Because of this situation, Sadie is by my side more and more these days. May is there in her own way, and when we are alone, she is very affectionate with me, but Sidhi wants to talk to me about Meek. Whenever we are alone, she brings it up. Last night, in particular, she was lying on the bed, holding my hands with her eyes blazing, and talking about this.

"Princess Meek should be returned to the Elven King as soon as possible.

"Isn't it too early?　Shouldn't we wait and see a little more?"

No, the Elf King is probably waiting for his daughter's return with bated breath. Besides, Princess Meek has just remembered her father. The longer she waits, the less she will remember her father. Now would be a good time to do so."

"Hmmm."

"Why don't you talk to your grandmother about it?"

"Yes. Let's talk about it.

"I'm sure the great-grandmother will want me to go home right away."

"You think so intuitively?"

Sadie nodded slowly at my words.

"Okay. I'll go to visit my grandmother tomorrow.

"By all means, sir. And when you take the princess to the elf village, please take me with you."

"Sadie?　Why?"

"It's ...... for some reason. Somehow I think I should go with you."

Sidney took his eyes off me as he said this.

"Sadie. You're hiding something, aren't you?"

"No, nothing."

"Really?"

"...... yes."

I thought it was a strange pause, but I didn't dare to talk about it and lay down on the bed as usual.

After all that had happened, today I went to visit my grandmother and reported Meek's condition. She came to the house immediately. And while she was looking at him, she whispered in a small voice without saying anything to anyone.

The Elf King will not be offended by this.

"Oh, my lord, about that story..."

"What is it?"

"Well, Princess Meek, should we return her to the Elf King as soon as possible?"

As I asked my question, the princess closed her eyes and thought about it, but then slowly opened them and looked at me.

"Yes, that's right. I guess it's better to be early than never.

"So, ......."

"Can you do me a favor?　To reach the village of the elves, we must climb the precipitous icebergs and endure the terrible cold. Moreover, the mountains around the village have strong winds from time to time. It is almost impossible for even the best of men to reach it. But with your skills, you will be able to reach the village under those conditions. I am sorry, but will you do me a favor?

"Master, I ask you to do the same for me.

Before we knew it, Gon was at our side. He had reverted to his white fox form.

"This is not just a relationship between a princess and an elf king. If the relationship between us foxes and elves is restored, we will be able to give merit to many people. As a result, the people living in the streets will also receive many benefits. I would like to ask you to understand this.

"Hmm. No, I'm willing to send her to the Elf King, but the question is how to get there: ....... I'm willing to look forward to it, but let me think about it for a while.

"Hmm. I know I'm asking a lot of you. I would like to tell you to take your time and think about it at ......, but I cannot take too much time. I am sorry, but please give me an answer as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

"......"

"......"

A moment of silence follows. I wonder if he has something else to say, and Gon mumbles to me in an apologetic, small voice.

"Master ...... that ...... sweet ......."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't notice. I'm baking a cake for the girls' snack. It will take a while. ....... Oh, I'll offer them to you, okay?"

"Mm. No hard feelings. And some o-hagi.

Yes, sir. I'll make it today and offer it to you."

"Mm."

The princess nodded broadly. Then she gave Gon a few words and left the house.

"...... Hmmm... You're still as reckless as ever. He's so rough with the fox, I can't stand it!

Gon is muttering something like that in human form. I heard that Gon was ordered to accompany the elves to the village. He also told me to tell him to develop new sweets for me. I couldn't help but smile as I heard this story.

After that, I talked with Rico and the others about Princess Meek. We quickly came to a conclusion and unanimously decided to return her to the elf village. The only problem was the journey, which seemed to be quite difficult. Since May and Sidhi knew about it, we decided to discuss the matter with them and the meeting was adjourned.

"We have to cross two mountains before we reach the elven village.

While May and I were taking a bath together, I asked her about the route to the elven village. The Filcon Mountains, where the village is located, are over 8,000 meters high, and there is almost no life other than elves there. However, to get there, they need to cross the Muroc Mountains, which are about 6,000 meters above sea level, and then the Maspis Mountains. The Mathpis Mountains are said to be about 3,000 meters high, but they seem to be made of ice, and crossing them is very difficult. It seems that fire cannot be used there, and it is impossible to keep warm. Many adventurers have lost their lives there, and it is said to be a place of death.

"Once we reach there, we can move around using the master's transfer wards, but the problem is the Muroc Mountains that lie ahead. I don't think we can go over them with Ilimo's wings."

"How difficult would it be even for Jeneha and the others?"

"Probably."

"Hmmm. Then I guess we'll just have to work hard to climb the mountain."

"Yes. ....... However, the last Filcon Mountains are also ......"

"Considering the climb, it's a lot of work ......?"

"Why don't you talk to Siddy about it?"

"To Sidie?"

"Yes. If you are Siddhi, maybe you can come up with a way to get over the mountain."

"......Yes. Let's ask Sidney once. The sooner the better."

I get out of the bath and head for the bedroom. Sadie was waiting alone for May to bring her, and soon after May came into the room with Sadie.

"Oh, Sadie, I'm sorry. Is Piatrice ...... Pia alright?　Just the three of us for a minute. ......"

"No."

Sadie stares at me with a glazed look in her eyes. The unexpected behavior makes me momentarily stunned.

"The three of us ...... don't like it."

"Why not?　The three of us together ......"

"Absolutely not!　Especially if it's with Mei!"

Sadie's eyes filled with tears. Then she cried aloud.

"I'm sorry, Sadie. I'm sorry if I offended you. ......"

"It's terrible...... terrible, Mr. Linos. ....... You know I have no confidence in my body. ....... He said he wanted to be with Mei. ....... Mei and I are totally different......"

"Well, ...... Siddy, it's not like that."

May calls out to Sadie gently in confusion.

The master wants the three of us to think of a way to get to the elven village. Maybe that's not what Siddy thinks ...... and ......."

"Huh?"

Sidney looks up with a start. Her face turned bright red as she looked up. .......
