CH 139.2

Chapter 139.2. Cleaning Up!

There will be people who will come to light if we investigate, and there is no doubt that more than a few people in high positions are involved.

“Hmmm, a little less as a reward this time. Well, that’s solid. I understand. I’ll go along with Yoshiyuki’s proposal. But what about the old druid?”

“I’ve heard about him. But I don’t know about that. I don’t think he’s interested in our internal affairs, so there’s no need to worry about it.”

Papa shrugs his shoulders, and we all agree that’s true. I don’t think the old druid would be so concerned about our internal affairs.

“That has nothing to do with me. What’s in it for Ninny-sama?”

Ninny, the only one who is a complete outsider, interjects with a hearty huff. There is indeed no profit at all.

… It looks like it, but it’s not.

“Miss Ninny, didn’t you come across the border to rescue Mashiro-san? If Takano County didn’t have free reign, you couldn’t have joined this expedition, you know? Don’t you already owe Takano County a great debt?”

“Ugh, ugh ……. You’re right, you’re right. I’m sorry!”

Ninny, intimidated by Papa’s stern and slightly angry demeanor, backed away and bowed her head honestly.

“So everything will be all right then, Yoshiyuki-dono? Takano Miu is a good recovery magician who was active in this expedition as a follow-up to Princess Sena. Is that what you mean?”

No one raised any objections to Enraku’s words, and the conversation ended. Mii-chan finally finished cleaning up.

“Um, Mii-sama’s reward is zero? That’s terrible.”

When the conversation was over, the air loosened up. Yamiyo puffed out her cheeks and voiced her opinion.

It’s true that with this proposal, Miu will be rewarded for being inconspicuous, but that’s because she helped this expedition team, and it’s not right that there is no original reward at all.

“Yes, you are right, Yamiyo-san. Then, I’ll give Miu the royal jewelry collection.”

“Ah, Yamiyo-chan. I like the land here! I’ll make lots of flowers bloom! I want to make a flower garden!”

Before I let papa finish his line, I cover the words.

She raises her hands. She’s so innocent, Mii-chan. Don’t change what I told you beforehand.

She’s a small girl, but she’s a very tall girl, and she’s the excited Mii-chan, with a smile on her adorable face.

“That’s a good idea, Mii-chan! Let’s make a flower garden!”

“Isn’t it a little dangerous? Gauu, it looks like monsters will attack us?”

If it’s what Miu says, Yamiyo is in total agreement with me, and Tamamo speaks common sense.

“It’s like Miu. But jewels are better.”

“Flo-wer-Gar-den.”

I want a flower garden. I want a flower garden. Miu’s telepathy is activated! That’s enough.

She rolls on the floor and flaps her little arms and legs to show her spoiled baby Mii-chan, but no one bothers to tell her that she doesn’t need a flower garden anymore because she has a flower garden inside her head.

“Then, may I ask you to contact His Majesty the Emperor to see if we can buy a part of Kamakura at a low price, Princess Sena?”

“Understood. I will put the groundwork in place. Perhaps the Emperor will give it to you for free.”

Seina puts her hand on her chest as if swearing.

“Then, please do me a favor. And let’s not speak of this story to each other, so that it doesn’t leak anywhere. Even if we’re the only ones who know about this story, do not let it spill out. I ask you to do so. I will never speak of this meeting in the future. I will pretend to be a stranger.”

“I understand. It’s good to be cautious.”

And so this secret discussion was over.

……… Of course, this papa is a fake. He’s Frigg-oneesan who disguised herself by controlling the communicator with [Machine Dominator V].

I plan to contact Papa from the fake Ouga. I’ll tell him that Ouga has been working on this story so that Mii-chan won’t be in danger, and then we’ll pretend to be unaware of the rest of the story.

So, Papa will never know the truth this time. I did something a little bad, but it was to protect Mii-chan, and by extension, to protect the family.

I hope you will forgive me for being a bit of a bad girl.

I’m sure a kind papa will forgive me.

Later, Kongming’s reputation will rise again, and everyone will begin to pay attention to his wisdom, but that is another story. I’m sure it’s because Papa is so cool.
