"Dear Ein. Excuse me during your meal."

"Is that it? Mr. Martha, what's going on here?"

Dill sank the knights...... after he calmed down, Ain was enjoying a Knight's Dining Room meal with his three friends.

Basically a huge meat and a menu packed with some side dishes and soup. That's volumie in a nutshell. By the way, the post-training knights are a thankful story for them because they can use this dining room for free.

Ask Ein what happened to Martha, who appeared abruptly in the cafeteria.

"It's hard to say...... I have plans for the afternoon"

Ain't been too slow. I was going to come to the dining room early, but I was talking to everyone about public stories and how I feel today. Then it's already past noon and Ain's appointment from this afternoon is approaching.

Martha is trying hard to say, but Ain't her faulty, so Ein gets an equally close look.

"Ah well...... I guess it was a little too slow"

"Yeah, it's time to get ready... And Dill, you continue to guide our customers. Is that good?

I understand, Lord Martha.

Exactly not with your mother, but Dill, whom I called Lord Martha. Unfortunately, Ein has to break up with them and move because of his plans for the afternoon.

"I'm sorry everyone. Actually, I have plans for the afternoon. The place is in the castle, so it's okay, but it's an important business, so I'll let you out first."

Ain turned to the three of them and said so with regret.

"Your Highness, I don't care. Once you've finished your tour today, you'll have no problem getting out first."

"Oh right. It was fun, I'll see you at school!

"See you at school!

My friends were relieved that Ain't cared at all about getting out first. After hearing the three replies, I speak to Dill sitting next to me.

"Dill. Can I take care of it?

"Of course. Don't worry, I'll take you to the castle gate."

"... then good. Bye guys, good luck today!

At first all the unpleasant feelings were solicited, but today, when Katima also sealed it, she was able to finish without any particular major problems.

If this was in the castle, things might have changed again......

If there was a problem, it would be about the Angel May case in the dining room.

That wasn't seen by the three friends either, not a bad result if you think about it.

Nevertheless, in retrospect of the fact that it had somewhat influenced my mentality until today, I just hope I don't have the next opportunity.

"Then Dear Ein. Please come this way, Master Krone will be waiting for you."

"Okay. Please guide me."

Ain left the Knight's Dining Room behind for his next appointment.

The look of Ain with his friends. Said the knights who saw it. As a little bragging I saw Ain't not usually seen......

"Mr. Martha, where's Krone?

Ain't left the dining room and started walking to the castle. I asked Martha, who walked a short while ago, where Krone was.

"I'll be waiting for you in the office."

"I see. That's why we're going to Krone's office."

"Sir Left."

Ain't got an answer to his question right away. That's why a little silence wraps the two of us up. Ain thought it was just fine and asked about May.

"Um, Mr. Martha?

"Yes? What is it, Master Ein?"

"I had no idea May worked in the cafeteria."

"Did you mean that, actually..."

Why does May work there? Ein asks his master, Martha, about May because he was wondering about it. Her reply was then much deeper than Ein had thought.

Actually, I did the same thing.

"Martha said the same thing...?

"Yes, my teacher told me to work in the cafeteria as well."

It was my first ear. On the contrary, I didn't even know about Martha's master. From Ain's point of view, it's only surprising that Martha, now a first-class supplier, has worked in the dining room as well as May.

"I was told to behave gracefully, even in a busy place like that. … May still behaves gracefully and doesn't have anything to do with learning to work."

So laughing Martha keeps talking about it as if she misses it somewhere.

"But it should be a good experience. Hear the demands of many and fulfill them in the optimal order. It's pretty tough, isn't it?

"... yeah. I did make it look tough."

"But May, I enjoy the hard part....... so I'm sure. In more than a decade, maybe you're on first-class service, right?

"That's a pretty high regard, Mr. Martha."

Martha is tough on the job. Because of that image, it seemed impressive that she was praising her so far. Instead, she smiles and talks about May, she even feels like Mae's mother.

"A child who can be desperate is something that will be fine no matter what he does.... Well, this is also what the teacher said"

"... Speaking of which, who's Martha's teacher?

"Oh, that? Dear Ein... Didn't I tell you?"

"You've never heard of it..."

In retrospect, Ain't never heard of Martha's master. But even as Martha, I guess it wasn't particularly about hiding it. Cough gently before giving the answer.

"Master Berea." Belia, who is now the paying manager, is my teacher. "

Ein, who heard it, could easily be convinced. Beria...... an old man in his late 60s, but still serving Laralua, the most senior woman in the castle's service.

Sometimes I'm not young anymore, and basically I don't already take care of anything other than Laralua. Ein therefore has never had many opportunities to see her.

But she... Ein also understands very well how amazing Salesman Berea is.

Even if you let them use the same tea leaves, it's only natural that the flavor changes depending on who brews them. But that Berea brews a cup that even Martha is so sumptuous.

Even if it looks like the exact same thing, for some reason, the taste and aroma change.... Even Martha, who has been in service for years, still doesn't understand Director Berea's moves.

And even if Laralua doesn't say anything, I'll get you what you need.... a monster in the service world, that was Berea.

"Oh, my God, it's Master Krone's office while we're talking back in the day."

"... that was an interesting story. Thank you, Mr. Martha."

"No. It was a boring story, but it seemed like an honor to have had some spare time"

Instead of spending my spare time, I definitely wanted to hear more about it...... well, let's make it another time. While we were talking, we arrived at Krone's office. I just have to end the chat now.

"It was a fun story. He's amazing. Mr. Berea..."

"Yeah, that's right. And there were many mysteries inside... you said you used to hang out with Master Warren? Ever... that was an extra story. So, Dear Ein, I'm with this."

"Oh, hey... wait, Mr. Martha!? I don't know now..."

In the last few years, Martha has left words of concern to the top class. That Warren...? If you think so, there's no reason not to care.

"... No, you can't. I have plans today...... next time I get a chance I'll listen carefully"

Ain't got a solid note in my heart. Reminds me that I have plans coming up, and it's not a good idea to keep Krone waiting. That's what I think. I put up with the thought of a severance.

"Yes, please."

Ein knocks on the door and enters Krone's office.

Ain't going to go for Warren's place with Krone now. And we're gonna have some meetings about Baltic.

"Welcome, Dear Ein. And Lord Krone."

Ain, who rendezvoused with Krone, had taken him to a conference room in the castle. Warren was already waiting there, so Ain and Krone lined up and sat down in a nearby seat.

"I think I made you wait."

"That's not true. But Dear Ein, the morning event seems to have been enjoyed, above all."

With that said, Warren will be your usual tender-looking face. Even as Ain, I can't deny that I felt like a hundred million bucks until today. But I couldn't even rip my mouth off that I didn't enjoy it today.

"... by leaving it to your imagination"

"Hehe... is it the left? That's more than anything."

You can't possibly understand Warren, but with a little resistance, Ain't got my heart in my mouth.

"That'll be quick, but let's start a meeting"

About this time, the meeting begins. Warren hands some material to Ain and glances at it.

"Old Demon King's Collar. There are still many dangers involved with regard to that area. It's not an area where the King's Prince Ein can set foot."

"... oh, I know"

"But the situation is the situation, so aim there in full swing. I will do that."

Ain't thought he'd say no when it comes to the old demon kingdom. I didn't think I'd get permission.

"I will attach more than half the Kingsguard knights."

"I see. I'd be relieved if I had that much fighting power."

"That's good"

The elite in the elite, many of those Kingsguard knights, can be relied upon as Ain. Krone, who is listening next door, also nodded yeah when he heard it.

"And then enough to have Mr. Chris and Dill on it?

"No, Lord Chris is not coming to Baltic this time."

"Oh, that...? Is Mr. Chris not coming?

"She's a marshal for once, so I decided to drop her off this time."

I'm also convinced that's what they say. Certainly Chris is a marshal, normally, he shouldn't leave Wang Du so easily.

"So I don't know what to say instead. Don't worry, Lord Lloyd."

As usual, Warren had a grin when pranking. His prank succeeded, because Ein is so grumpy at all.

Clone next door also sends his gaze to Warren in surprise.

"Aren't you supposed to be your grandfather's exclusive escort?

"That's all for a position...... Besides, Your Majesty is planning to pull you back to the castle, so no problem."

As you may well say, Silverado doesn't really walk outside. So when it comes to the need for a dedicated escort, I can also understand thinking about it.

"Lord Lloyd stayed put. Your Majesty has given you permission, so there's no problem."

"... by the way, what did Mr. Chris say?

I guess Lloyd and Silvard are willing to ride. The way you two are wierd comes to my attention.

And what about Chris? Even as Ain, I'm confident Chris likes himself. That makes me wonder what she said about HR this time.

"Actually, I haven't told him yet."

"... to?

"How dare you when you look sad... I'm going to get hard too, so I was wondering if you could tell me from Ein."

"Er... such, as to push the villain..."

Waving deliberately, Warren. Probably a convict. That's what I thought Ein, but the truth is there's nothing I can do about it.

"And well. Let's just leave Lord Chris alone. I'll tell you later from Ein."

"You pushed me, didn't you? Mr. Warren? Hey?

"Next, please explain the number of personnel travelling with Ein to Baltic, etc."

"... Yes"

Enough, I'll tell him myself later. Having so decided, Ein listens to Warren.

"That's 122 people in total. It's the Great Zone."

"Oh, you're going so far in the big zone...?

"I hope you're satisfied that it's so dangerous"

"... then can't you help it? 'Cause it sure looks like a dangerous area."

In fact, even for Warren, I don't know how dangerous it is. Anyway, the former demon kingdom is an undisclosed area where investigations have not progressed. I have no idea what will happen.

"Now, Lord Krone?

"Yes, what is it?

"Lord Krone will take care of you as Ain's sidekick. Are you sure?

"Yes, of course. Leave it to me."

During his journey to Baltic, Krone takes care of Ain around him. That's what I meant. But if it's uncomfortable, if it's so big, why don't you take the service?

"Mr. Warren? Is there any reason why you don't take the paycheck?

"No. Of course the pay will come with us. It's just that Lord Krone will take care of Ain."

"Hey, I see... like I get it, I don't get it"

It's just that for Ain, Krone must be easier. There are some parts of me that I'm not convinced of, but I know Krone will do the job of paying me.

"Ein? The men who serve also look after the Kingsguard knights. You don't have time to rest if you even take care of Ain't, do you?

Krone, sitting on the left side of Ain, grabs Ain's left arm and starts explaining. Ain't no particular penetration into too natural a trick, either.

"You might be convinced when they say something like that."

"That's more than anything.... but you went first?" My Krone ". So you don't mind if I do something like that, do you?

"Do you want to call it here..."

Warren, who was watching the exchange between the two of them, is smiling at it. Compared to when Krone came to Ishtarika, he began to show a lot of rapprochement.

I can't seem to feel emotional about it.

"I see Krone will do the payroll job. He said he was going in a great big area.... and I could understand my role as leaving Chris behind."

Words mixed with some grudges. As for the dog I got deposited with, Chris would show me his sad eyes and face. I feel heavy thinking about it.

Warren asked Ain for a reason. Isn't it harder for Ein to tell you than Warren to tell you clerically, for example, to let her down, too? There was a thought.

As Marshal, as Knight...... Personal greed is second to none. Everyone knows that, but if you can alleviate the sadness at all, you've never gone beyond it.

"Ha ha! That's more than anything.... Okay, next. There is some discussion about when Ein leaves and the Baltic region."

"Um, is the time already set?

"Whatever. This is my first time telling Lord Krone, so please adjust."

"I'm awed, Master Warren."

Apart from the material, Krone opens the notebook and prepares notes. By the way, to tell a detailed story, all those trinkets were prepared at my grandfather's chamber of commerce.

"I was wondering if you could leave two months after this, that is, by the time we get closer to autumn"

I'll see you soon enough.

"After examining all the conveniences of the Kingsguard knights, servants, and researchers, we decided that this was the best time."

Sometimes they have a lot of personnel and they struggle to adjust their schedules. Ain't accommodating there in time, but it wasn't all that easy this time.

"More information on personnel and itineraries will be decided by the beginning of next month. Lord Krone will also be invited to attend the meeting."

"Then I'll do the same for you."

"Best wishes.... Well, by the way, Dear Ein?

"Hmm? What?

"How familiar are you with the Baltic climate?

climate? and recite it in my heart.

There are numerous adventurers and many demons live in the vicinity as well. I understood those fine circumstances, but never cared about the climate.

"Sorry. Sounds like I'm understudied, I've never heard of it when I think about it"

"Been... excuse me. Never mind.... So do you know Lord Krone?

"Yes, of course. You know, Ain. Baltic, in a nutshell, is a cold region."

"How long is that?

Clone starts thinking with her fingers on her lips. I thought I was doing that for a few seconds, and I immediately resumed explaining whether I had finished compiling the information for her.

"It's been snowing for about half the year."

I was dissatisfied with why demons and people were gathering in such a place. But I can't help but fool around with Krone. Leave that in the corner of your mind.

"Compared to the distance to Ist, it's really close to 10%. But until Baltic, it's almost straight down the flat road, so it's like the North."

"I'd rather be hot than cold."

Krone teasing with a smile at Ain's adorable complaint.

"Okay. Then let's wear a lot of it so it feels hot, shall we? Don't worry, I'll make you wear it properly."

"... I feel something different"

"Your aide is competent and helpful, Master Ain"

Ein quickly changes the subject because even Warren started teasing him. Because with this flow, there's a chance they'll tease you down.

"Well, leave the joke alone, which means I'll have a new cold gear for you, too?

"It's the left. Anyway, by the time Ein gets to Baltic, it's already starting to snow."

"You're too soon."

It will already snow by the time I plug it in in the fall. I never thought it was such a region. Looks like we have to watch out for frozen death as well as demons. … Ain't learned that the climate of the Wang capital is a blessing for a long time.

"This time, by the way, Prince Wang goes to Baltic because sometimes the personnel are personnel. That touch will come out. As for the contents, Prince Wang investigates the former demonic kingdom, which was still an undisclosed land. That's the kind of pre-construction... well, it's not even pre-construction, but that's how I plan to give you a touch."

"You mean it's going to take the form of official business?

"It will. Well, it was easier to schedule this one, too."

"Well, I guess so. I wonder if it feels like we're sending out a private royal train."

A rather troublesome royal private train when boarding and when getting off. That's all I don't really like, Ain, to get a lot of attention. It's not a matter I can tell my ladder, but it's a different matter of getting used to it or not.

"Of course. So I was hoping you could wave me a little face."

"... I wouldn't just ignore it though"

To be honest, I was also concerned about the aristocratic vehicle to Baltic from White Rose. What is going on with the interior and what kind of train is it? It was a strong attraction to Ain, but the royal train ride is great. With that in mind, neither is inconvenient for Ein.

"But Master Warren. I can't believe Lord Lloyd is escorting Ein..."

"I also understand Lord Krone's doubts. Indeed, Lord Lloyd is a commander or an individual warrior. Which is the most powerful talent in Ishtarika today."

Without falsehood, Lloyd is the most powerful man in the king's capital. That's why we should always refrain from taking Silverado's side. Krone thinks so.

"Even as Your Majesty, you were still worried...... This is the only place I can talk about it, and I'm going to put Lord Lloyd on it first, actually, Your Majesty."

Rather, on the contrary, Silvado initially. Chris was also going to send him to Baltic for the record. But that's just... So Lloyd and Warren were desperately stopping it.

In fact, Silverado is basically never from a castle. That's why, if I told you, there was also a rotten part of the treasure. And having Lloyd and I investigate doesn't make a difference that Ain't got a new stimulus either.

That's why the choice Lloyd was the best this time around.

"In addition, I had actually asked Professor Oz to cooperate as well. But I've received a lot of apologies for not being able to make plans."

"With Professor Oz, it would have been comforting."

"It is. But this investigation team is also quite powerful. So don't worry, Ein."

Reminds me of it in the ist. Oz helped me many times, and at the end of the day he even prepared the Red Fox Demon Stone, the best wise man for Ain. How grateful he would have been if he had accompanied Baltic as well. It is regrettable that he is busy.

"The professor is busy, too. So I can't help it."

"I wanted to see Ein at first sight, but... let's give up this time"

From then on, the three of us kept meeting for about two hours.

Ain't never known Baltic to be an extremely cold land. It was only a matter of time before Ein went to Baltic.
