Chapter 48: The Maidsâ Circumstances, and the Summit.
ăWe are ăEsupionă. Intelligence officers under the direct command of His Majesty the King of Belfastă ăHis Majesty the King?ă ăYes. We were assigned as protection for the Princessă
It makes sense coming from Lapis-sanâs explanation. Being the Princess of the country I thought it was an extremely noninterference policy, but itâs that huh? Protect Yumina from the shadows? Well I did hear some noises from the ceiling inăThe Silver MoonăâŚâŚ. I thought it was just some rats but it was probably Lapisâ group. ăEsupionăis something like a garden watchmen or spy?
ăAre you two the only guards?ă ăNo~. There are several others~. Theyâre all girls though~ă
The other housemaid responds to that question and Cecil-san removes her mask and shows a tensionless smile. Theyâre all girls? Well if theyâre sneaking around in the walls, I need to think about privacy and changing, that would be more preferable.
ăI mean, the entire time? Since Belfast?ă ăItâs our duty after allă ăWhich reminds me, when I went back with ăGateăto the house you two werenât there. And, that was a conspiracy with Lyme-san?ă ăThatâs right~ă
They successfully fooled me huh? I really want to hear if the story about belonging to the housemaid guild is true. It was a necessary skill for going undercover⌠almost all of the ăEsupionăgirls were members.
ăAh, then could it be that when we were fighting against the black dragon the one that threw the knife wasâŚă ăThat was Cecil. Sheâs a knife throwing expertă ăEhehehe~ Itâs not that greată
Cecil-san blushes when looked at. This fluffy person huhâŚ? You really canât judge a person by their attitude.
ăWhat do you plan to do hereafter?ă ăWeâll keep guarding Yumina-sama from the shadowsâŚbut, master we have one requestâŚâŚă
Lapis-san hesitates to speak while looking at me. Will you stop with the master bit pleaseâŚâŚ.
ăPlease keep our identity a secret from the princess pleaseâŚâŚă
Aa, protecting from the shadows while having your identity exposed is certainly bad huh?
ăIf the fact that weâre protecting the princess is exposed~ the princess will be angry at the King you know~ă
That reason huhâŚ? Well, it would be like telling your daughter you trust her, sending her off, but not actually trusting her at all. Well, itâs not a difficult thing to keep it a secret. For the time being, I separate from the pair, and return to Yumina. I told the circumstances to Kohaku via telepathy but, lied to Yumina and Lindsey saying ăThey got awayăActually, they did get away using that flash powder. The girls let out a mysterious face, I somehow deceive them, and then we returned to the castle that day.
The next day, for the purpose of ally conference between Belfast and Misumido, the two Kings met. Because it was the summit, there was a bit of a dispute as to who was going to go where. In the end, the Belfast king come to Misumido, at the same time was transported in full view of the conference room. In the conference on our side was Lyon-san, my group and the knights that had come from Belfast, on Misumidoâs side was, the Beast King-heika and Prime Minister Graz-san, along with sever of the warrior squad, the wolf demi-human Garun-san. Upon the mirror I opened ăGateă, from within, the His Majesty the king and his younger brother Duke Olutorinde. No one was able to hide their surprise at the fact that two people came through the mirror, of course that was only a moment, and as a matter of course the kings of each respective country met each other.
ăWelcome to Misumido, King of Belfastă ăWe wish to express our gratitude for inviting us, King of Misumidoă
Each shakes the others hand. With this it because a discussion between countries and we being outsiders left the room. I excuse myself into the corridor. Only wishes that the conference goes well remain. And coming from the hallway came the unsteady steps of the walking teddy bear, Pola along with Rin. And as usual wearing those black goth loli clothes.
ăIt looks as if the King of Belfast has comeă ăUn, just now. Theyâre in the middle of the conference right nowă
While pointing at the door with guards standing to the right or left of the door, Rin responds.
ăAnd, have any desire to become my apprentice?ă ăI already said I donât wannaă
Since that time Rin had persistently tried to get me to become an apprentice. In the end she said I should become a temporary apprentice. Wait, isnât that below an apprentice? The nearby Pola gestured ăCome here!ăin invitation.
ăEven still Pola is so lively even though itâs just a teddyâŚ.Itâs as if heâs aliveă ăThat because I gave him that kind of program. For almost 200 years itâs donât various things on its own. Even a human will cry if they get hurt, youâd get angry if you were made fun of would you?ă
200 years huh? The countless accumulated programs naturally gave birth to this? If I were to make a human looking doll with ăModelingăand gave it a ăProgramăwouldnât it be something like a mock android? Is what I thought but⌠itâll take 200 yearsâŚ. I canât just copy PolaâsăProgramăyou know. After staring it doubtingly, Pola stepped back a little. It was also ăProgramedăto do this as well.
ăBy the way, Pola has been running for 200 years but it doesnât look even the least bit old. Did you remake it?ă ăNo. I used my no-attribute magicăProtectionăon it. It gives some objects a degree of protection. Regardless if itâs dirt, deterioration, or bugs, Pola will be unaffected.ă
Protection magic huh? But for it to remain in this state for 200 years is amazing. If you were to put it on clothes then they wouldnât need washing. If you were to put it on the body then you wouldnât need a bath butâŚâŚI think something would end. Even if there wasnât any dirt, it gives the feeling of renewal.
ăI mean, Rin can use several no-attribute magic spells. ăProtectionăand ăProgramă, as well as the one from Charlotte-san ăTransferă as well? ăThe fairy clanâs aptitude for no attribute magic is high. Instead it would be better to say that there arenât any of the fairy clan that canât use no-attribute magic. Even still I can only use 4.ă
It could be called good if a person could only use a single no-attribute magic but to be able to use four? Thatâs amazing. Well, Iâm in no position to say that? The one remaining no-attribute magic of Rinâs interests me.
ăTouya-dono. The King of Belfast is calling. This wayă
The door to the conference room is open and from within appear the face of the Prime Minister Graz-san. I enter as summoned and the two kings look at me.
ăTouya-dono. The talks ended without delay, thank you.ă ăThatâs greată
I felt relived at the King of Belfastâs words. With this my work is almost complete.
ăWell then, we shall return to Belfast. Iâll leave the rest to you. King of Misumido, excuse usă
After the light farewell, I secretly used ăGateăand the two people disappeared into the mirror again. After the two people had left, I rushed into action after I had finished making arrangements. I took out a hammer in the presence of everyone, and smashed the mirror to pieces.
ăTo- Touya-dono!? Just what are youâŚ!?ă ăAa- itâs alright. Please watchă
I turned my back on Graz-san and concentrated on the heap of broken mirror parts and wooden crates and used magic.

ăModelingă
The broken mirror and wooden crate transformed into a pair of small oblong mirrors. About 2 cm in width and 15 cm in length. Then I secretly enchanted one of them with ăGateă
ăThis mirror here will be connected with the one in Belfast. Hereafter, when there is something of importance then insert a letter here and it will be received there. (Snail e-mail) Ah, of course, if you were wondering if this is a genuine article you can send a document to through to the other side. ăIndeed. What would otherwise take 20 days to report would be reported in an instant? That is certainly convenient. We shall have both countries use these very much.
When the Beast King-heika received the small mirror, he smiled. My job ends with this. Alright then, shall we go home? Even though I received it, I havenât lived in it at all. I want to slow down for a little after this.
