The Cheat Plant Mage Hides to Live a Slow Life!! ～ I've Been Banished from the Court and Want t

The decision-making body of Romancia Empire, the Privy Council.

It receives information not only from the upper continent where the empire is located but also from the Guild Autonomous Region on the lower continent where diplomatic relations have now been severed.

Skilled spies are scattered throughout the continent.

「….the situation in Gartland is improving. Quite unfortunate.」

In order to damage the potion industry in Gartland, the production of red berries was suppressed and even mages were sent to cause crop failure.

Since plant mages were unreliable, they asked those who were good at ice and water magic to spoil the field with unseasonal frost.

「Apparently, there is one capable person over there.」

「Hou, who is it?」

「Unknown. A very capable man has emerged but the location and real name are unknown.」

「….what is the spy agency doing?」

「Don’t worry. The potion industry is just a step in the empire’s plan to restore diplomatic relations.」

The council fell silent.

The great emperor was busy making consolatory visits to various territories that had been damaged by the war against monsters.

One hundred years of warfare had reduced him to a mere decoration.

The honorary chief of the court mage spat out.

「….maa, that damned brave, Riito Ricart, should be living quietly somewhere by now just as he wants.」

In contrast, the captain commander of the knight order blurted out.

「I wonder. Aren’t you the one who banished the brave—」

「Shut up! The reason why such a fellow came to be hailed as a brave was because the knights were weak!」

「The knights are strong. Riito Riicart’s tactics are too innovative and are not conforming with the knight’s honor—」

「Yeah, when the kid was saying “I didn’t do much, right?”, you knights were all silent. All you did were look down like the cowards you are.」

「What did you say?」

The court mages and the imperial knight order.

The two groups have never been good friends.

「….maa, isn’t it good?」

The president of the Privy Council shrugs his shoulders.

「The mysterious man in the Guild Autonomous Region, though somewhat clever, will not be as infuriating a marvel as….Riito Ricart.」

The Privy Council of the Romancia Empire doesn’t know yet.

The world’s common sense is going to be shaken by the carefree, hermit life that Riito Ricart has begun on the lower continent.

…..or rather. There have already been problems within the empire due to the absence of Riito Ricart.

They don’t know it yet but the flowers are in full bloom in early summer.
