"It feels like."

Returning to King's Landing, Taketo immediately went to the Office of the Magic Beast Poacher and handed over his report to Commander Valvara.

"Mm-hmm. Thank you. Looks like it's been a lot of trouble."

At the desk, the commander paraphrased the report given by Taketo. Since I stayed in the village much longer than I expected, I had a brief report of the situation carried out by the telegram in advance.

"Yes, I was hoping Caron and Brigitta would accompany me."

"So, how's Ulu getting hurt?

It was unlikely that I would be able to travel long distances until my leg wound was healed to some extent, so I stayed longer than planned in Kenneth's village. The journey back to King's Landing did not take Ulu, and the tackets came back slowly on foot to suit Ulu's condition, so it took several times as long to get there.

"Chante is taking care of the medicine that was dispensed to him by Clinston. Fortunately, the wound is already healing quite a bit, so it seems to have left no sequelae."

I see. Tell Chante to show his face when he's calm. You don't have to hurry. So..... "

"What is it? You're back."

The commander was still about to say something, and suddenly there was a voice coming from behind the tacket.

A hard, high voice that you can't hear.

Looking back, there was a woman walking here from the entrance to the office.

He walks with his long, loosely twisted golden hair tied in clumps, shaking his horse-tailed sole.

a woman in her late twenties wearing rough looking glasses, a washable shirt like that of a man and pockety trousers like those for work. She is tall for a woman and is as tall as a tackle.

She walked with the star as she saw herself, and sat on the captain's desk unauthorized and bent her arms.

"Looks like it's been a lot of trouble. Thank you very much."

He seemed to know me when I sat at the desk and the commander didn't say anything, but I never saw Taketo before.

"Who is it? This person"

The commander taught the tacket to listen while pointing openly at it.

"... you must have seen him at least once."

"Yeah!? I haven't seen him. I'll never forget anybody with such a strong personality and habit."

Running rude in front of her, she laughed at KeraKera.

"I've seen you many times in this royal palace. You do a lot of interesting things."

Huh?

"You've been staring at the wall in the hallway before."

"... eh? Ah, ahh......"

I didn't mean to look at the wall, but if I look back, maybe I saw a lizard crawling through the wall. Sometimes the walls of the royal palace are crawling with very beautiful lizards of crystal blue, and I stare at them every time I see them. Sometimes I forget the time.

"And the other day, you were crouching down in the corner of the backyard."

"Er...."

I think he probably saw an ant on the ground. There was a mysterious insect with eight legs, even though it looked like an ant. I wonder whether that is an ant or a spider. I still don't know.

The commander, listening to the two exchanges, laughed with a pleasant voice.

"What is it? You've met quite a bit. Taketo. This man is your employer. Remember that."

"Eh...? An employer?"

Taketo listens carefully.

Who's your employer? You're one of the officials in this royal palace, so you're hiring this kingdom, right?

"Yes, that's for sure."

I mean, it's like a government official.

"This man, his chief. I mean, it's my king."

"............ yes?

The woman narrowed her eyes behind her glasses and lifted her right hand to a tacket that leaned her neck without swallowing the commander's words.

"Jengray Fonzinia. Nice to meet you."

"Externally, it's often called Jen Grey III."

And this is the commander.

However, the tacket was still confused and cluttered in his head.

(What? The king... did you see him at the ceremony the other day? Eh, eh!?

The statue of the goddess who had the scepter "Oishaku" among the kings and the rough impression she is now in front of me do not connect in any way.

Not knowing what to do, and bewildered, the king took the tacket's hand and fell down.

You can call me Jen.

That's what the King said... Jen laughs.

Her eyes were cloudy moss green. It was like a reflection of a deep misty forest.

"Ah... um... thank you very much."

Lower your head while being confused. Speaking of which, when I heard the king's story from the superintendent before, I decided to leave him alone because he seemed troublesome, but I didn't think he would come from there.

"Oh, yeah. Taketo. That's the one you sent me. Thanks to that, I've learned a lot. I tried to wash the goddess church around here... but apparently there were fewer followers here and they were suffering financially. So they were going to capture the goddess and the deeply attached Forest Cat and use it on their guests in order to win."

"... eh. Have you checked that much already?

Jen laughs slightly at the tacket with a surprising expression.

"The mastermind found out in your report. [M] There are many ways to make him vomit."

Imagine what that smile means, and the tacket feels as if your spine is bubbling.

Was it political pressure, weakness and shaking, or torture? I don't know which one, but I was impressed by the Taketto that he didn't seem to have investigated it in a proper way.

"The Goddess Church and the masterminds will be punished accordingly. It's also a show. Now there's nothing left to shake the peaceful lives of Forest Cats."

"Thank you... thank you.... ah, that's right. One more thing. I didn't write it in my report...."

Hmm?

Taketo told them that Chante said that the men in leather and armor who were with the Goddess Church had an imperial accent.

When he heard that, Jen roared with hum.

"... if Miss Chante says so, I'm sure she's right. Again, imperial entanglement...."

"What do you mean... again?

Now the commander opens his mouth to Taketo's questions.

"There must have been a runaway incident with a sand whale before. However, subsequent investigations have shown that it is highly probable that the person who installed the device in question was an illegal immigrant from the Empire. There is national communication with the Empire. So the movement of people and things is not without limitations. Except when it comes to taking problematic action in our country."

"Border security has been increased just in case. The Empire stinks a long time ago, but why are we wandering around in the vicinity of the great beasts of our country? That's what bothers me."

And this is Jen.

Speaking of concern, there was another one in the tacket.

Strange thing in the shape of a pig that came out when the Goddess Church guys caught him in the woods.

(He called me Master....)

I feel like I said I don't know what the contract is, but to be honest, I don't remember much detail because it was a stuck situation.

(Is that like a special item that comes out during a pinch...?

Maybe you don't usually have to worry about it.

At this time, I still thought so.
