Chapter 33: We prepared miscellaneous goods for living in the dormitory
After taking several breaks on the way, We arrived at the main gate of the royal capital.
It was 3 days for a horse-drawn carriage, but half a day for a flying dragon, even if we went slowly.
ā€œThank’s for your hard work! Three-seater was hard wasn’t it, thank you!ā€
ā€œGururu ~~ ?ā€
ā€œBecause you’re worth two people. It’s the same as having four people ā€¦ā€
ā€œAh … that’s right … Bals, here’s your favorite goblin! Eat!ā€
ā€œAgain, you spoil him right away ā€¦ā€
ā€œIt’s okay cause I can’t meet Bals for the time being.ā€
ā€œThat’s right ā€¦ā€
ā€œWhat will you do after this?ā€
ā€œThe king will be returning tomorrow, so I’ll be staying overnight at the royal castle, having an audience with the king tomorrow, and then returning to the country the next day. So this is goodbye Luke.ā€
The King is in the post-processing of the Marquis case regarding Princess Mifa.
ā€œThat’s right … Can you tell Lulu and Chiruru that I’m sorry I couldn’t say goodbye brother Jail?ā€
ā€œOkay … are you and Lulutier fine with this? You may be convinced that you’ll still like each other, but her feelings could change if you can’t meet each other?ā€
ā€œThat’s not like a king ā€¦ā€
ā€œI’m going to be the next king, but before that, I’m your brother …. I don’t want to see my cute little brother sad.ā€
After all my brother is cool!
ā€œI’m not happy, but I can’t do anything about it now …. It seems that discourse with the Marquis’s son is already underway ā€¦ā€
ā€œI can stop that … If I make Lulu my fiancĆ©, it will be forcible but the process will be stopped.ā€
My brother doesn’t have a fixed partner yet … Even though the proposals are mountainous, he never nods his head.
ā€œDoes brother like Lulu?ā€
ā€œI think Lulu is cute, but I know she likes you, so I’ve never had that kind of feeling. I’ll tell you only, but I actually have a loved one … … but there’s a problem … ā€œ
ā€œEh ~~? Who do you like brother, Aunt Karina?ā€
Aunt Karina … My father’s youngest sister, a pretty weird person.
She looks young, but I think she’s in her early thirties …
When she was 20 years old, she was forcibly married to her husband, but one day she formed a history of half-killing her husband and came back, and since then has lived quietly away from the royal palace.
That’s right, she’s in a word a ā€œSword idiotā€. When she sees Luke, ā€œThis fat!Ā Get rid of it!ā€Ā She’s always trying to teach me swordsmanship, so I wasn’t very good with her.
ā€œThat’s right… I don’t think grandfather will accept it, even besides father.ā€
Grandfather … This person is also one of Luke’s weak points.
The family of the Kingdom of Wolg is good at fire attributes, and those who inherit many of those genes are born with red hair.Ā I have inherited a lot of my mother’s genes, so it’s silver blue.
The older brothers with the bright red royal hair color are found insanely cute, but they showed little interest in Luke … This may be the reason why my mother became too enthusiastic about education for me.Ā In response to that, Luke stopped studying …
ā€œIs there a relationship between you two going on?ā€
ā€œYeah, but right now I don’t have the track record to persuade grandfather, so I’ll have her wait a few more years. Are you against it?ā€
ā€œNo, I’m not good with Aunt Karina, but if you like each other, I’ll support you.ā€
ā€œThanks. So what about Lulu?ā€
I don’t want to be pulled by Luke’s emotions anymore …
ā€œNo, you don’t have to do anything. Just take care of yourself brother.ā€
ā€œYou’re not honest …won’t you regret it?ā€
ā€œIf I can’t forget Lulu, I’ll get her myself.ā€
After getting the approval of the gatekeeper, we enter the castle town of the royal capital.
A carriage picked us up from the royal castle, so I say goodbye to my brother here.
We hug each other for a while and say farewell …

ā€œIris, what do we do after this? Are we going to school as it is?ā€
ā€œFirst of all, we’re buying daily necessities. You only have a bed and a study desk in the dormitory, so we need cooking utensils and ingredients right away. It’s okay at a later date, but we’ll need permission later.ā€
That’s why we went shopping as well as sightseeing in the royal capital.
Iris lived in the royal capital until recently, so she buys what we need without hesitation.
It seems that she wrote down what we would buy in advance, and marked the items bought with a circle ….Ā Iris-chan is a better girl than I expected.
I put what was bought in my [subspace warehouse].
ā€œIris? Why are you buying such expensive regular items?ā€
Now, Iris is buying tableware at a high-end store, but she buys a fairly expensive one.Ā As a commoner, I was surprised at the amount and called out on the way.
ā€œOrdinary items are the tableware we usually use. High items are the ones we serve when guests come, so we need to prepare items that are not embarrassing for the royal family.ā€
ā€œI see … Then, I’ll continue to leave the selection of items to Iris.ā€
I have 100 million Jenny…  Duke Guile handed me the money I gave to the Duke’s family as dowry.Ā I was told that I could use it as I like because there are various needs, but it certainly seems to cost a lot of money.Ā The one million I got from my father wasn’t enough …
ā€œā™Ŗ The Duke wanted to see the master’s ability to manage money, so he gave you 100 million.Ā If you use it without thinking, I don’t think you can touch the finances of the Duke’s family. ā€œ
ā€œWas there such a reason … I don’t think I’m going to take over, but I am thinking of various things.ā€
We also bought a table set and a reception set for a high-class dining table with a profound feeling that seats 6 people.
ā€œHey Iris … Is there space for such a big piece of furniture?ā€
ā€œThe rooms in the royal dormitory are specially designed on the top floor. They’re quite large.ā€
I bought a lot at the market and stored it.
ā€œYour Highness Luke, please refrain from buying raw foods … Even if you buy them, they won’t last for days. No matter how many ingredients you buy, Your Royal Highness will only be served the right amount of food!ā€
I’m thinking of talking about [inventory] someday, but I wonder if it’s too early now … After all, Iris is a maid attached by the Duke of Guile.Ā If I talk now, everything will be reported.
That’s pretty bad.
Unlimited weight and time stop function, even if a war broke out, if I were alone, I wouldn’t need any personnel for supplies.Ā When an army moves on a scale of tens of thousands, there are quite a few people who carry the ingredients, weapons, and armor that accompany it.Ā If food doesn’t rot, you won’t lose in a siege battle, whether you’re offensive or defensive.
It would definitely be dangerous if it was revealed.
ā€œIris, let’s stop using Your Royal Highness.ā€
ā€œThen I’ll call you Luke.ā€
I wanted to buy more ingredients, but Iris stopped me.
