16 What I Finally Understand.
"I'm home, Father."
After a short break the Ains came under Olivia's father, king of Ishtarika.
The location was about 20 tatami conference rooms, which were in the process of meeting as per the room's name.
As soon as Olivia enters the room, the meeting room will be quiet and everyone will pay attention to you.
A luxurious chair in the deepest part...... a large man in the body sitting on it makes him King Ishtarika and Olivia's father Silvard.
Next to both of them sat a man of strength and an old man of good stature.
"... give me the rest of your cheeks"
"(That's right, Your Majesty. Because my daughter, who married a foreign country, suddenly broke into a meeting)"
Ain had a little sympathy for King Ishtarika.
I wouldn't have been able to assume one thing about this, even as a king.
I thought it was only natural that I wanted to make sure it was real.
"Can you hit me?"
"I understand...... Phew!
Let the bent man Silvard sat next to hit himself in the cheek.
The man got in the mood and gently aided the king in the cheek and beat him.
"(Eh, eh... aren't you scratching your usual cheeks? You shouldn't hit me, right? The guy who beat you up, he said... he's too temperamental.)"
"Uhm not bad. Apparently, it's real."
"(Now do you understand? Your Majesty, you're sturdy, it's not working at all.)"
Ain't amazed at the king for eating such a strong punch that he hasn't been damaged enough to say it at all.
"Oh, Father? I don't know what's wrong with letting people hit you all of a sudden, you should still be young."
Ain't Ain't it your fault? I thought so, but I don't talk about it.
Or too unusual an atmosphere to pinch your mouth.
"Princess, so if you are suddenly here, Your Majesty will also be confused"
"But even if I could say something in advance, I'd end up with you because it's sudden too."
"As a king for the rest of us, I don't want to look wolfish under my throne. I'm sorry, but today's ritual is going to last, okay?
Unlike the mysterious air that preceded me, I order Silvado to face the meeting.
He couldn't think of anything other than to do this, either.
After Second Princess Olivia decided not to speak out about her return, the face of the meeting dissolved.
There are seven people in the room right now.
Olivia to Ain, and Chris and Martha...... and Silvard and an old man and a tough man who was next to Silvard.
The place changed and moved between sights because it was a serious story.
Spacious, the marble floors shine there, the carpet is so fluffy and Ain't very calm.
Silvado sat on a luxurious throne that was still so majestic that the story began.
"Be honest. It's confusing... my daughter, who went to her daughter-in-law across the continent, suddenly broke into a meeting."
I beg your pardon, Your Majesty, Ain sympathizes.
"Right, I admit this is really suddenly happening. I decided to come home last night."
"Last night or... I didn't get any reports. Lloyd, Warren... what about you lords"
It was the two men sitting next to Silvard who Silvard spoke to.
Looks like a tough guy named Lloyd and an old man named Warren.
"Me too, Your Majesty."
"The same goes for this one, Your Majesty. I haven't heard from the Knights... but I'm wondering how Lord Chris was."
Lloyd went on to answer after Warren answered.
Lloyd seems sharp and Lloyd's gaze is pointed at Chris.
"Ha, I've been on a princess escort assignment since last night. So we understand the situation."
"Please don't say anything about that, Father. Both the butler's office and Chris asked me to stop and pick them up."
Olivia followed the Chris guys as promised, Silvard would have to be somewhat convinced, too, to say this.
"... then I can't hear that anymore. If you only obeyed my daughter's orders, those who were involved in this will not question anything. That's it."
"Thank you, Father"
"Ha... Totally recently, if you think I'm going to keep taking care of you, now my daughter's back, Warren."
"Your Majesty, you should have disciplined your attitude a little more if you were to complain."
"That's right, from us you can see His Majesty is pleased. Aren't you glad the princess is home?
"(I've been watching, but I wonder if these two mean His Majesty's most trusted subjects)"
Silvado complained to Warren.
Warren and Lloyd both say Silvard is happy, but honestly I don't know.
Honestly, I'm not angry, but it just seems like a look close to grumpy.
"I can't understand the rest of your heart at all."
"So I'm going to refine it."
Reply like Warren doesn't give a shit.
We seemed to work together for a long time, and for that reason I felt like I could tell the small difference.
"... and I want one answer before the reason I return home. Who's the kid here?
Restore your mind. Silvard sees Ain, and asks Olivia and someone about Ain.
"Ein, can you introduce yourself because you're okay?
"Yes.... I will see you first. Me... I'm Ain... My previous name was Ain Roundheart. Here we are. Olivia is my mother."
Just hesitated to use it with me in front of His Majesty, Ain.
Now I guess you should use it with me from time to time, but I was somewhat embarrassed to speak in such a tone at this age.
"Son... is it a child... the son of Olivia..."
At the end of Ein's introduction, Silvard was bewildered.
"Oh, Father? Are you going to do nothing while I let my grandson introduce himself? He's my first grandson, and I won't do anything if he thinks I'm scared."
Silvado was told that by Olivia and saw Ain with a hazy look on his face.
And keep looking down just a little bit.
"The rest is King Ishtarika, Silvard von Ishtarika. It will be a pleasure to meet you, but the rest will be your Lord's grandfather."
"Yes, I know you, but it was also last night that I heard this story..."
"Him, the princess's son..."
"This surprised me. This child... was written in a letter from Olivia. I was waiting for His Majesty to come and see me now or now, Olivia's."
"Lloyd, what are you talking about?"
Silvard begins to be molested by Lloyd again.
The atmosphere was much easier to spend than Ein thought.
"No, what... Lord Warren?
"Yeah, well, was it a few months ago? You had received a letter from Olivia saying that her son had the gift of training. You were in such a good mood that you could tell it was not just us."
"Oh yes, he did, His Majesty also said in his mouth that my proud grandson seemed to be growing well. No, but I'm honestly surprised this Lloyd was so young to get the gift of training."
"Please don't do this anymore, you can lose the rest"
(It doesn't show up in attitude, but is it the sweet type for the family?)
"Ha ha! I have defeated His Majesty. You must not be sentenced to death, Lord Warren."
"Dear Lord Lloyd, I'd like you to meet me first. Dear Ein, my name is Warren Lark. As Prime Minister, I pledge my allegiance to Ishtarika. It will be a short time before you return… thank you very much."
"I'll be the first to see you, my name is Lloyd Grayshire. As Marshal, I am giving my life for peace in Ishtalika. If you'd like to come home, please let us know if you have time to work out or anything."
After all, they were both heavy towns for Ishtalika.
Ein realizes that the face of this room is largely amazing: the king of the united nation, his prime minister and marshal, and Einside, the second princess, the vice president of the Kingsguard Knights, and Martha, one of the top in the service.
"You're all just finishing your greetings, and shall we continue? Father, that's why I came home."
"Oh. I would have liked to have done the greeting place with Ain a little slower, well, that's enough"
"Oh, Father. But I'm sorry, I couldn't afford it because it was a sudden decision."
"... let's hear why"
It was not just the three of us, Warren and Lloyd, on Silver, but even Chris and Martha, who faced nervousness.
Chris has been acting together since yesterday, but he hasn't even heard about the reasons for his estrangement.
"I have been separated from Logus Roundheart. I'm not going back to Heim, and I'm not willing to give Ain over there."
"... Lloyd. I'm sorry, can't you hit me again?"
"I'm afraid, Your Majesty, I'd like you to hit me too"
Humph and I raised our voices and beat each other up like cross counters.
Silvard isn't losing either. Respond to that with power.
"Hih, princess...? You're pretty sure that being separated is an isolation where your wife and husband break up, right?
Only one, Warren, who seemed calm, confirmed.
"Yes, definitely on that edge"
"Reason! Why don't you give me a reason, Olivia... what happened?
It makes Silverado look more excited than ever.
What Ain't told me is that he's a sweet type of person to his family.
I guess I'm so concerned about the contents of the isolation that it's unusual.
"I didn't think Ein would be happy to be there. Neither Logus, who was close to his parents, was willing to spend the rest of his life together."
Olivia started explaining why.
The fact that Logus began to take care of Grint all the time, and the cold attitude in his eyes towards Isis' ein, his grandmother.
Explained to everyone to curl up what had happened before.
"(Ha... there's half the human blood in the house that was doing that to me. Even if you don't accept it, I wonder if you could at least make it enough to live)"
What Ain was thinking was about his own blood.
The Roundheart family thought there might be something they didn't even like about Ain because they treated Silvered's precious daughter like this.
"... well, you're back, Olivia"
"... Yes"
I guess Silvard is trying so hard to contain all kinds of emotions, he called Olivia back with a slightly painful look.
"Lord Lloyd, did you need a budget meeting?
"There won't be. I don't know what to say, but Heim is the opponent, there's nothing particularly scary about pre-emptive attacks. If I were to mention it strongly, Lord Logus is certainly quite hands-on, but I can only say" quite ""
"(I heard a noisy conversation)"
"Nevertheless, as a Knights, you won't feel very comfortable losing" Haim "either. Isn't the attack on Roundheart's mansion enough?
"... Lord, what are you talking about in front of the rest of us?
That must have been just a bad conversation, to stop Silvard with a grumpy face.
"I won't admit to losing Round Heart in Heim. I will capture the man of the house and drop his neck in the square under the castle."
Isn't that the least of them, Your Majesty, Ain't about to put it in my mouth.
"It's already a hassle to be so... no, I went home in confidence because I didn't want to, Father? Let's not do this anymore, shall we? I don't want to remember either."
Perhaps even as Olivia, there's a part of me that doesn't want to get involved anymore, suppressed about the three of us having a noisy conversation.
"If the princess says so, I will stop sending troops..."
"Because you've always been sweet. The princess, ha-ha!
"Let's just shelf it when it comes to Heim. For Ishtarika...... he said he went to Heim for my wife"
"Yeah, so was that. May I tell Ein and the others why I married Heim?
"(Yes, the reason your mother came to Heim.
One of the things I wanted to know) "
"Oh, that's enough. This bond has also been broken, and I don't mind talking to anyone here."
Forgiveness from Silvard has come out, and this will finally solve one question.
"Bye, Warren. Please explain."
"I understand. The story is simple… it was about resources and the rights involved."
"As a nation, we do have a huge lot of space, and we follow a path of prosperity with high technical skills and culture. But because of that prosperity, we had one problem."
"Problem… Could it be in terms of population"
Martha, who has never spoken of anything before, says her thoughts.
"As Lord Martha put it, it's population. Trains of course...... now life always uses magic props, I would use this to boil water or even a smaller ship. It's a magic tool that's very commonly present in life, but there's not enough ore overwhelmingly needed to make this."
"Is it a sea crystal, it is indeed urgent...... Dear Ein, do you know the sea crystal?
Of course Ain't understood the content at all, so I was grateful Chris confirmed it.
"No, I've never heard of it before. What kind of ore is it?"
"I'll explain everything to you. Sea crystals are materials in which the bones of demons in the sea have been reborn over so many distracting years. We have melted its sea crystals at high temperatures in our magic props."
"(Was there such material?)"
Materials that seem precious even if you're just asking.
I would definitely like to explain the effects of that too.
"Yeah, well, what effect does that melted sea crystal have?"
"This melted sea crystal can remember a variety of magic and control demonic stones. We remember and control two kinds of magic in our water-boiling magic props: the magic for boiling water, and the magic for cooler winds and more comfort."
Warren, the Chancellor, explained in detail.
"(I see, are all parts of the appliances and other functions remembered with their sea crystals, or even the cat country where the air conditioning...)"
Ein is also surprised that there are magic items like air conditioning.
The level of culture is several times higher than assumed.
"I understand the approximate use"
"That's fine. Let's go back a little bit. The population has grown and the demand for magic artifacts has increased dramatically. But in our offshore, as far as we've discovered, most of the ocean crystals have been mined. But that's when a huge amount of sea crystals were discovered off the coast of Roundhart, Haim's port town."
If the demons in the sea mean, why don't we just expedite? and Ein thought, but the answer to it is immediately spoken.
"With our wisdom and technology, we do not know the conditions under which sea crystals occur. There's only one thing we know about this, and ocean crystals don't occur on the seabed too far from land for some reason."
"(Ah, I see...)"
"Fortunately, Heim's magic props have different specifications than ours. In our case, we make the liquefied sea crystals remember magic, controlling and activating the demonic stones that serve as raw materials. In the case of Heim, on the other hand, there is nothing to control… there is no sea crystal for us. For this reason, there is no control function. If you activate the magic prop itself, it will just be like boiling water or wind. There's no control over demon stones here."
"(I don't know, it's just the difference between being in control or not? Do you think the use efficiency of demon stones is different? If so, I don't think that's enough to get the princess out to her daughter-in-law)...... sorry. What is the difference between when you can control the Demon Stone and when you can't?"
"I'm sorry about this. An uncontrolled demon stone leaks the magic of its hidden demons into traces. Demonic magic is a" poison "to humans, and so what happens is that life expectancy is purely shorter, and growth is inhibited."
This means that every time I used demon props in Heim, they were eroding my body a little bit.
When I hear that, I don't go to use it.
"Almost every human being in our country owns a magic artifact. That's why I couldn't allow you to use those forms of magic props. Of course, we're doing new research, but we're not looking to develop it."
"... So you think the princess is married to Heim for that?
It's also my first fact for Chris, I guess I'm not feeling very good about the content.
Ain't been happy that you felt that way for Olivia.
"Right. As a result, what we wanted from Heim was the mining rights of sea crystals and other equivalent rights. What they asked us for was a back shield, Heim said the difference in national power from ours is overwhelming. With our back shield, Heim can leave that continent even harder."
Some of the things I was thinking about and wondering about resolved.
In other words, Olivia made herself intimate in the bait because of Ishtarika.
"When I made my decision about Ein as the next owner, I was supposed to publish about Olivia and Ishtarika. This means we were looking at the time because we are not being troublesome pursued or interacted with by other countries. At the same time, the Roundheart family went from Count to Marquis, to Duke when Ein was an adult."
I can't believe I got a princess from a country like Ishtarika. I wouldn't be able to say that.
If the extremists knew about it, it was also conceived that Heim would wage war on other countries at once.
It seemed like there was a time to see, given a lot of things.
"Um... by the way, would it have been nice to have made such a covenant? I'm sure we don't need a back shield right now because things are stable on that continent, but still, these forms of breakdowns..."
Martha might as well say so. Honestly, it would be better to assume that there is no more Istalika cooperation.
I can't really imagine this guy named Silvado allowing that to happen again.
"I still don't know what they're thinking. Lloyd, what do you think?"
"I honestly don't know either. Sure is painful for us, but more for Heim..."
"The sea crystals are fine."
"... Olivia, what did you say?
... Mother? What the hell are you going to say?
