Chapter 594 The Royal Request, In Form
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
After hearing the whole story, King Yuuri felt relieved to talk with Alvin and the others in an unofficial setting. At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel anger towards the lord’s deputy who had not properly handled the Dragonmen’s communication, and towards the family members who had trusted that person. Noticing Yuuri’s anger, Alvin and the others waited in silence for him to speak.
”…First, I want to thank the Honorary Knight Wolf. Thank you for bringing the people of village here. Because of your efforts, we can take the necessary actions.”
”Your words are too kind.”
”I also want to apologize to Ichiro-dono. It was wrong of our representative to act that way. I swear in my name that we will make sure this does not happen again.”
”I am truly grateful.”
Yuuri’s gaze and voice towards Alvin and the others were warm, showing no signs of hiding his gratitude. They realized that Christina’s guess was correct. Even in an unofficial setting, the fact that the king openly admitted to a ‘mistake’ meant that the royal family valued the Dragonmen’s village highly.
Yuuri was deeply impressed by Christina’s actions, as she only shared information with the minimum necessary people and upheld the Zia family’s reputation. As expected from a young lady of the Beltz family, one of the 4 great families representing Oeste, he praised her, saying that the Wolf family she would marry into would be safe.
Those words meant that the king himself was blessing Alvin and Christina’s marriage, and even if some strange interference occurred, the royal family would support the two of them. Christina realized this and bowed deeply. It is very rare for someone who is not a royal blood relative, even if they are a high-ranking noble, to receive a blessing directly from the king.
However, Yuuri’s calmness ended here. The king’s gaze was strict as he looked at the knight standing by the wall, and he opened his mouth with the face of a ruler governing the country.
”Where is Coral and what is she doing?”
”She is at ‘Teremoro’. …Just as the king imagined…”
”…I see.”
Hearing the name Coral, Alvin recalled the knowledge he had crammed during his lord training. Of course, Christina, being a true noble, knew that name, and Shinji knew it at least by name.
Coral Zia. The second princess of the royal family. She is the daughter of the king and queen, has a claim to the throne, but is not interested in it. She has publicly stated that she will follow the next king who fulfills her wishes.
Her wish, which is quite rare not just for royalty but even for nobles, is to be granted permission to continue sailing. This was a very famous story.
The mention of her name means that Coral is in charge of the royal territory located south of the town ‘Suur’.
’Teremoro’ is the name of the southernmost town in the royal territory, facing the sea, where fresh seafood is transported from ‘Teremoro’ to ‘Suur’, and from ‘Suur’ to various places. Knowing that Coral is in charge of the royal territory, it’s no wonder that Alvin and the others feel a strange sense of understanding.
(Don’t be a foolish girl! If you’re going to hang around ‘Teremoro’, don’t neglect your training as the lord’s deputy!)
Yuuri didn’t know what triggered it, but since she was young, Coral had been a tomboy who loved the sea and ships.
Not even interested in the throne, she trained her body and mind to sail, hired crew members, and whenever she had the chance, she would go out to sea. On her birthday, she would ask for renovation costs to tinker with ships instead of jewels or dresses, and now she had become an expert in ships and the sea, to the point where she could be called the best captain in the country, with some even calling her the ‘Captain Princess.’
Zia’s family has thrived in fishing thanks to Coral, and even when troubles arise at sea, they can trust her. So, while things were different in the past, they now support her way of life. Because of this, they entrusted the southern territory of Suur, which has the sea, to Coral.
She mainly stays in the port town of Teremoro, working as a sea expert, while leaving the lordship duties in the town of ‘Sloste’ to her fiancé and in-laws. Yuuri understands this and has quietly accepted that it’s okay to rely on a capable representative.
Yuuri suspects that the current issue is because the in-laws didn’t inform the royal family about the secret relationship with the Dragonmen. This happened because Coral chose to leave the lordship duties to her in-laws but didn’t take any precautions.
As a member of the royal family, one should focus on managing their territory before looking out to sea. Since the new lord, Alvin, is doing a great job, it’s only natural for the king to be even angrier at Coral for not taking enough responsibility.
However, being angry won’t change the situation. Suppressing his anger, Yuuri turns back to Alvin.
”I will accept the Wolf family’s proposal. From now on, we will act as if ‘the royal family received reports about the anomalies in the valley from the Dragonmen and requested the dispatch of an excellent spirit user from the Wolf family.’ The reward will be decided through discussion, but Ichiro-dono and the others should head to ‘Sloste’. I will send a message to the person in charge, Coral. They will meet in ‘Sloste’ and investigate the cause of the spirit’s absence.”
”Understood.”
Alvin and the others bowed their heads at the king’s words. It was good that Christina’s idea was accepted as it was, but Shinji felt a big worry about the person in charge (the princess) coming along.
(Still, it was within the range of expectations. I want to avoid trouble. I have to make sure the issue with the apostle doesn’t get found out.)
After finishing the unofficial meeting, Shinji and Ichiro left the royal capital as planned and headed towards ‘Sloste’. Knights from the imperial guards, carrying a document with the king’s orders, rode on the huge hawk, Eight-span Hawk, which only the royal family owned, flying over their heads.
