A young girl in a village without protection

Tsericina has often stayed in separate mansions in the town of Halmir, but sometimes returns to mansions in the king's capital. Today, I returned to the main residence because I had a report for my father.

"Dear Tselli, it looks like Bayselle will be home in about two hours."

Tsericina nodded quietly as Hisui made a report while brewing tea.

Sit shallow on the couch and grab the tea you've brewed. The look on that face is so exhausting that I'm going to fall asleep like this.

"... how about going to bed today?

"Thank you, hissy. But I have a rush to report to your father..."

"You mean that woman named Merriam who came today?

I thought the thing about Meliá was terrible, even from the hissy I'm not very familiar with politely. It would be natural to report that to his father, the lord.

But Zelicina sees hissy with decent eyes.

"I will not report to your father."

If you did report it to your father, you would make contact with Merliah's house. But if you do that... you'll probably also tell Tsericina to go home.

If there's been such a big deal, you just have to prepare to be queen at home, not proxy for the lord. You don't have to bother to act as a big lord, because the future is guaranteed.

(Exactly, you want to give me a break)

Weirdly, when the father intervenes, I'm sure it's easy to retreat from Melia. But you can't do that.

(Heroin becomes a bad end if it is not tied to Master Solatique)

Then Zelicina dies, too.

That's exactly what I wanted to avoid, so I decided to take care of this myself inside.

"... So, what business do you have with Master Baysell?

"Of course, it's about the village of Zerin. Have your name registered. That way, we can trade in the territory."

Speaking to my lord, my father, makes it possible to trade with Linkrat villages and cities. The other territories and the King's Capital will not be able to do so until after the King has given him formal permission.

That's why Zelicina wants to report that the village's name has been decided quickly. That way you can have your name on the map, not just the deal.

Seeing Tsericina speaking happily, Hisui also loosened her cheeks.

"I was a little worried about Merriam-sama, but you seem okay"

"I was surprised by the sudden... but I don't think it would be a problem if I handled it."

"So is that."

That being said, Zelicina and Hisui smiled at each other.

As Bayselle boarded the carriage parked in front of the royal castle, she slowly moved out. I wanted to get home early because I heard that Zelicina was coming back, but it was later than I thought.

Baysell takes the report out of the bag and looks through.

What's written there is about Zelicina. Bayselle secretly followed her men to make them report daily on what she was doing as a lord's deputy.

"I didn't know Daiki was going to grow well... I'm surprised"

Reports have also risen that the fields glowed and that they were cooking strange dishes with potatoes. The villagers also like me and I seem to be doing well.

My daughter, who I thought Bayselle had to protect, seemed to have grown more than I imagined.

But there are some concerns.

"Of the Earl of Saltimar, Miss Merriam..."

It says in the report that it came suddenly, without any foretaste. After that, Zelicina and I talked, and they went home...

"She also seems to be intimate with Her Highness the Solatique, and I will strike my hand for Tselli..."

Bayselle wonders what's going on.

But - Zelicina is the queen of this country in the future.

At the same time, I think that we need to be able to deal with such problems on our own. Some people will come by if they become queens, others will be hostile.

I thought it would also be a good study for Zelicina to remember Meliá well.

"For one thing, decide what Tselli will talk to me about..."

And Bayselle went home to the mansion to talk to Zelicina, who was waiting...

"... the village is ready to collect honey, and today we harvest potatoes for the first time. And with that, the name of the village was Zerin."

"Right."

Zelicina doesn't even speak Meliá's Me lettering at all.

Bayselle laughs bitterly inside wondering if it has come to that. I'm sure Zelicina even thought about what would happen as a result of the report.

Indeed, instead of responding to Meliá, Baysel might ask you to be educated by the queen in the mansion.

"I need a favor from your father."

"Yeah?"

"As soon as possible, could you approve Zerin? We want to do business with the potatoes we harvest in the village"

The village of Zerin today has no financial resources at all.

That's why I want to be able to do business with every town and village as soon as possible. To be honest, Zelicina is not free enough to stay with Meliá.

Bayselle listened to her daughter's claim and nodded.

"Fine, I know Tselli's hard work, too. I'll have procedures in my territory by tomorrow, so I don't mind if it's in my territory from the day after tomorrow."

"! Thank you, Father"

Seeing Zelicina smile all the time, Bayselle is also attached and her eyes are lowered.

Until now, she had never gone out to the Mansion, so although I didn't like it, I was glad to give her the status of Lord's Representative.
