He Didn't Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became

--The Royal Palace of Alvinas, the moon of the goddess of maidens, 2400 A.D., Kingdom of Albain

A year passed after Dick Silver and his daughter Spirit Spirit Spirit disappeared from King's Landing.

Manarina Lila Albain, the First Princess of the Kingdom of Albain, was begged by his father, King Klaus, to assume part of the administration.

Now that the two Dukes of Vincent and Orlando are losing power and the Primieres of the Størens are rising, women's monarchy in Albain is beginning to emerge.

It is a controversy that the male ruler is causing problems at this time, but Manarina does not think that her father is the dark lord, and the noble women were a little confused to lift themselves up saying, "I won the duel with Zebias and opened my own destiny."

"I can't believe your father wants to give me the throne... I still want His Majesty the King to be well. It's too early to say you're hiding."

"Your Majesty seems to want your sister to marry Dick...."

Timis is now escorting the Royal Palace as the Knight of the Guard. I didn't report directly to Manarina, but I had the opportunity to go in and out of Manarina's private room while guarding her.

When Dick's name comes up, Manarina shows up on the balcony and bathes in the outside wind.

Miralka told Manarina about Dick's absence, saying, "I'm getting a request that takes a little time." Manarina thought it would be about a month long, but as she waited for it, she was almost a year old and gradually felt the shade on Miralka's side.

"... it's Miralka who's been looking forward to Dick's return more than me. I know you shouldn't say you're lonely."

"Onee-sama...."

Manarina looks back and holds the brunette's hair shaking in the breeze while smiling.

Timis was going to understand that his sister was thinking of Dick. I wish I were.

Still, we've never spoken clearly to each other. By speaking of Dick's thoughts, the sisters who were finally able to spend time alone were afraid that the relationship would change.

"Timmy, how's your spear training? I'm sure the Knights are practicing."

"Hah... it's a lot to learn. But after all, the SSS rank... no, my spear is always equal to children's play..."

"I have the same problem. Miralka is really studying magic theories that are very difficult to come up with, but when she teaches me, she reads a preliminary textbook with me... this kind of thing just bores me."

Hah, and the two sigh simultaneously - and laugh at each other with their mouths hidden.

"Fufu... I wonder what's bothering me. Miralka and Knight Cody were the ones who defeated the Demon King and saved the world."

"I think it's a miracle that we're just able to interact. This is also because Dick stayed in King Alvinas and was chosen as an Alliance Master....."

"... without him, we wouldn't be doing this right now. I can't thank you enough every day."

Manarina looks out again. Perhaps her sister was crying, and Timith, who sensed that, held her eyes down with a cloth, then quietly stood up.

To the glass on the table, Timis takes the two bottles out of the basket he brought, pours them into the glass, and mixes them together.

Manarina returned to the room with a generous expression so that she wouldn't realize she was crying. Then he looked at what was on the table and opened his eyes.

"This is...."

"I thought with onee-sama... While the day is still high, may I?"

What Timis prepared was "Thousand Year Peach Break of Kirin Milk Sake."

"Silver Bottle Pavilion" has a recipe made by Dick, and the owner continues to make the blend exactly as it is. Timis also went to the store and was taught by Verlaine. Insulated magic bags contain ice even in hot seasons like today, and they are shredded and put into glasses like snow.

Manarina takes a seat with her sister. Then he put the glass together without saying anything and took a sip.

"... cold and delicious. Thank you, Timmy."

"... yes. But it doesn't suit the taste of alcohol he makes."

"This liquor is delicious too... but I'll be in trouble. I want Dick to make it right in front of me...."

Dick went into the counter himself and made a blend of wine with a silver shaker, which was a very valuable sight for Manarina and Timis.

"Let's go to the store again. Invite Miralka and Timis' closest associates."

"Lia and McKinley are also registered as adventurers in Silver Bottle Pavilion, so they have more opportunities than we do."

"I see... does Timmy participate?

"Nh... no. I have a Knights mission, so that kind of thing...."

Manarina smiles when she sees her eye-catching sister.

Manarina also went to the Silver Bottle Pavilion with Miralka, but Dick's stories have been waning lately. The idea of getting too lonely and worried about Dick was an implicit understanding between the two of us.

Still, when Manarina gets lost or gets a little tired of her duties as the First Princess, she goes to the 12th Street tavern in a shy way.

Even in the absence of the Alliance Master, I sometimes see guests sitting at the counter bringing work in. At that time, Manarina always remembered when she first visited the tavern.

"... 'milk' or 'alcohol that can only be drunk in this shop'. Why do you think Dick made this a sign?

In response to Manarina's question, Timis seriously looks for answers.

"I like or dislike it, but most people can drink milk. Dick wanted to welcome every customer indiscriminately....."

"... I can't find anyone like Dick anywhere else."

"Ha, yes, I think so too... sister...?

Timis is confused when she suddenly feels like Manarina has changed.

After meeting Manarina, Timis felt like she was growing up while her sister was watching.

If Dick had the reason, Timmy would not have said anything wild about her sister's thoughts.

"... we're going to have a hard time, onee-sama"

"Yeah, you too. But I envy you because you're like a member of the Silver Bottle Pavilion... and I want to join the guild as an adventurer."

"That's... sometimes, if it means temporary, I wonder if you can give me permission."

"Really...? If that's what you say, it would be fun to party with your sisters..."

"As a knight, I protect my sister. A knight in this case is a part of an adventurer."

"I can use my sword pretty well, so I'll keep my feet to myself."

--The First Princess and Second Princess of Albain enter into a little intimacy.

Thereafter, two beautiful adventurers joined the "Silver Bottle Pavilion" on an ad hoc basis, and the name will be known to some as the sister of the mask, but that will be a little later.

In the cabinet of the Royal Palace of Alvinas, Primiere Støren, as head of the aristocracy, was routinely pursued by the executive as part of the government.

"Phew...."

"Mr. Primiere, take a short break... and I'll be packing it from 8: 00 in the morning"

Primiere is assisted by Kirsch - the title of the Orlandos has been downgraded, and the Størens have decided to pull out the talent that the Orlandos have left to attract the best. Kirsch was one of them and was found by Primiere and promoted as secretary.

However, Kirsch felt faint that Primiere did not put herself aside for that reason.

"... Kirsch, about the case."

"The Guild Master has not returned to the Silver Bottle Pavilion."

"Is that so...?"

Beyond Veil, a thin cloth that hides his face, Primiere exhales with grief.

Primiere thinks he's reducing the number of questions he asks as much as he can, but Kirsch hasn't heard it in the last few days or so.

Doesn't my husband fall asleep in this state? Kirsch seemed to be in so much trouble that he was always uncomfortable.

"... because he's here, I can stay here. And yet, I can't even tell you that he's leaving... I'm sure he's forgotten."

"Well, that's never... Dick is not the one who forgets the people he's been involved with. I haven't talked to you for that long either....."

Even Primiere knew that such a weak sound was only eight.

Kirsch encourages me every time Primiere goes down, but he disciplines himself by telling me not to worry about her forever.

"Albain's economy has grown considerably thanks to dragon riding. This is also because Dick freed the merchants of King's Landing from the use of dragon transport… his achievements are beyond those of the Minister of Commerce."

"Daizo would like to have a meeting with Dick, but he hasn't reached the" Silver Bottle Pavilion "request desk."

"If you're really in trouble, is this the point of contact you're opening for a critical request? Kirsch arrived because you were qualified."

"... I wonder if Primiere is really in 'danger' right now."

Primiere smiles at Kirsch's words. Then, read through the documents loaded in front of you, write down the signatures, and seal them.

"When he comes back, I will do what I can to report that this country is on the right track."

"That's a great idea. I will do my best."

Kirsch stops beside her as Primiere's assistant.

Looking from the side, you can see Primiere's expression from the gap in Vale - his eyes were shining and he didn't hide that he was in love with someone.

The ruins of the labyrinth beneath King's Landing had progressed to 32 levels over the course of a year.

Leonid of "Black Lion Pavilion" and Zeke of "Silver Bottle Pavilion" are still at the center of the strategy. Other Alliance adventurers may participate, but with more requests from the people of the King's Landing, each Alliance adventurer chooses a job that suits them every day.

There are still powerful monsters in the Labyrinth, but there is no longer any chance that they will not be able to defeat them. That was because nearly a year ago, four new adventurers began to participate in labyrinth exploration.

"But there are four adventurers like you who have surpassed the SSS ranks."

Suou and Micado, and Cain and Astorte. They came to King Alvinas to return the favor after the purpose of the "Seat of Champions" had been fulfilled by Dick and the others.

At first, Dick had the intention of protecting the King's City in his absence, but there was no shaking incident and they started a ruins labyrinth invasion to avoid wasting time in the King's City.

"I'm glad you let me dive, even though I came later. There's no country to go back to."

"... Cain, you're stronger than me. Aren't you going to hold a position at Silver Bottle Pavilion?

"Freedom suits me. Besides, Zeke, your stretching is not at its limit. You're starting to see the SSS ranks, right?

"Mm... I see. If that's the case, I'd appreciate it if we could get closer to the Master. Looking at the four of you, it's the same as being reminded of the size of the world."

Cain regained his original personality and enjoyed his daily adventures like a boy, with the greatest strength among the adventurers currently in King's Landing.

Zed initially warned Cain that he had fought Dick, but his sister Mizha took him and introduced him to some work he wanted to do as an adventurer. Cain chose to explore the labyrinth.

"Well, it's not particularly urgent. Before wandering the world, Dino... he was so excited to wait for Dick."

"Suw... even if you make such a mistake, I won't get your thoughts. She's him, anyway."

"Ooh? Something terrible has come into my ear, it's not coming in. I hear you and Dick had an interesting experience. Hahaha!

"Oh, it's a life-changing experience. I'll talk to you if you like."

Suou looks like a boy, but Mikado, who knows his true age, sighs with astonishment. Looking at it, Astorte smiled happily.

"I didn't think we were going to have an adventure with you guys, but... partying is a lively and good thing."

"Hmm... Astorte will change as well. Even if you belonged to the same organization, you wouldn't be interested in me or Suou."

"Is that... because I met Dick? He had a rare qualities that maximized the power of the party. And...."

"... and?

When Cain asks, Astorte says with a little light.

"The people at the party with him seemed to have a lot of fun. I thought I was a little jealous."

"... I see. I'm not very good at entertaining women."

"No, that's not what I meant... Cain has a good thing about it, an abstinence to seek strength..."

"It's okay to be serious, but that's not enough to ruin my life. As an adventurer, I suggest you enjoy it as much as you do."

"I think Leonid's a little too excited... but my granddaughter's worried."

"Oh, it's unusual for Zeke to pay attention to me. It sounded a little bit like Dick."

When Leonid laughed, Zed scratched his nose - seeing his brother, Mizha laughed joyfully as he took part in the adventure today.

"Ahahah, my brother is illuminated. My brother really likes Master."

"... Mizha, don't play with me, just keep your mind tight."

"The Blue Fox warrior has nothing to do with my sister."

"Except for my sister and Dick, I'm pretty scared."

"You guys... no, that's fine. Today, I will resume my exploration from the 33 levels. You may take another action, but assemble at a predetermined location at a specified time. That's all."

Yes - Zeke currently plays the role of leader in this member.

Labyrinth exploration is never boring for high-ranking adventurers.

Defeat monsters, find treasures, take them home for rewards, and work together in a tavern. The satisfaction gained from this was worthwhile regardless of rank.

"Well... do you want to go hunting for treasure again today?

"Suw, don't burn what you found like before."

"I won't make the same mistake over and over again... Oops, the boy from the Aquarium Pavilion came too."

"Guys, can we follow you too!?

Rigel, who entered the middle-aged adventurer's realm at the Silver Bottle Pavilion, and several of his friends approached. The ranks vary greatly, but they have a job to do - Zeke welcomes Rigel and starts explaining what he's doing today.
