Abandoned Retired Warrior Decides to Return to Farming

By the time Aurelia arrived at the meeting place, everyone had already gathered.

Four warriors including Lowe. And each of their party members.

There were already more than a dozen of them, but with former Cael’s colleagues included, the conference room was full of talented people.

And the meeting started with Aurelia sitting on the highest chair among them.

But before starting the meeting, she looked at everyone in the crowd and asked.

“By the way, where is she? Are you sure you haven’t come yet?”

She asked, showing her discomfort.

However, as with Aurelia, everyone looked at Serin’s empty seat to see if anyone knew.

No one was willing to answer, so Aurelia stared at Belgeron next to her with an annoyed expression on her face.

But he didn’t know either.

“He, I haven’t been contacted since the news broke a while ago. I’m looking for it for now…”

“ha. How can you act in a way like this at a time like this?”

Aurelia sighed deeply, annoyed.

Serine. As a former party mate and now an elf princess, she maintained a cooperative relationship with the Empire.

At the same time, he was the most experienced of the warriors and the most powerful after Lowe, so he was one of the indispensable figures in this operation.

In particular, it was said that he was one of the members of the party that sealed the Demon King. Because of such a career, she needed such experience before ability and power.

However, even after the meeting time had passed, her seat was still vacant.

No, I wonder if the contents of this meeting were conveyed in the first place. When Aurelia asked, she shook her head negatively, saying she didn’t know.

“I can’t help it. Serin will come back later and we will talk separately.”

Aurelia’s one word cleared the chaotic atmosphere.

Everyone’s eyes naturally turned to her.

“Okay then, I’ll let you lead the meeting instead of Obama.”

She was neither an emperor nor a prince with the right to heir to the throne, but she had no doubts about it.

Called a hero and a heroine who has already sealed the demon king, her popularity and power have surpassed not only the prince Dimitri, but also her father, the emperor.

Moreover, due to the recently deteriorating condition of the emperor, the power of the monarchy was gradually leaning towards her.

Still, the next emperor was Dimitri, but it would not be strange if it was overturned at any time.

Thanks to her, it was also natural for everyone there to lead the meeting now.

“As everyone must have heard in advance, the seal of the Demon King has been released. We have been informed that we are advancing towards the capital here, so we need to take measures.”

“Hmm.”

“iced coffee······.”

“·······Whew.”

Those who heard her had various reactions.

sigh. sigh. confusion. But no one could easily open their mouths.

Only the sound of sickness kept silence in the meeting.

But soon after, someone cautiously opened his mouth with an anxious voice.

“Princess. But isn’t that the devil? Is there any way?”

“We already have a record of sealing the Demon King once. And this time we have five heroes. Besides, there is only one demon lord that has yet to be confirmed. There is no reason to be afraid.”

At Aurelia’s words, Nike, one of the warriors, asked carefully.

“Why was the Demon King’s seal broken in the first place? I knew it would be sealed for 100 years.”

“That has not been confirmed yet. Perhaps Kael did something wrong. It is that person who sealed it.”

“Then, shouldn’t we have him participate in this operation as well? It’s also his fault for not sealing it properly in the first place.”

Some nodded at Nike’s words.

‘okay. I tried to do that too.’

But Aurelia, who could not find his whereabouts, could not give a positive answer.

“no. This operation is going to be done by ourselves without Kael. On the contrary, if he fails to seal properly and participates in the operation, there is a possibility that there will be a setback this time as well.”

“that······.”

“The operation must go perfectly. Just this time.”

Everyone remained silent at Aurelia’s resolute words.

Each of them had their own thoughts, but it was difficult to put them into words easily.

Aurelia. Now sitting in the same seat of the meeting, she already held more power in her hands than the next emperor, the prince.

Besides, she had already experienced sealing it once, so she was cautious about voicing her opinion prematurely.

For that reason, most of the operation was to be carried out according to the operation Aurelia had planned in advance, and the hero and other companions nodded their heads in agreement.

“Before the demon king army enters this capital, we will hit the players first. They don’t know where we are, but we know where the Demon King is.”

The Demon King is currently advancing towards the capital. There are even rumors of a spy soldier who has been walking very proudly since broad daylight.

So Aurelia was going to take advantage of that arrogance.

“They think we’re scared and we’re going to defend ourselves here, but we’re going to use the reverse of the way they make fun of humans and we’ll attack first.”

This time it will be completely sealed so that it will never happen again.

Aurelia’s firm determination continued until the end of the meeting, and no one objected to her words.

*

All the plans were delivered to those gathered at the conference room, and the conference ended with that.

As the hero and other companions left, Aurelia summoned one of them, Law.

“low.”

“yes. Princess.’

Aurelia’s call was answered, and he stopped in front of her, paying respects.

After waiting for everyone to leave the meeting, she spoke up.

“Are you all right? Should I just stay in the mansion?”

“yes. Thanks to the warm care and grace of the princess, I have improved a lot.”

“Whoa. okay.”

Aurelia took his hand and tenderly handed him a skinship.

It was a technique she had done to Cael before, but she betrayed him in order to steal the honor and achievements that he would have.

But this time it’s not necessary for Lowe, so she actively approached Lowe.

“Don’t worry too much about St. I will take good care of it.”

“Ah, I… Princess. That’s the lady. Going to trial is…”

“I know Lowe has a crush on St. After all, something like that happened at a party that Lowe was leading.”

“ah······.”

Lowe couldn’t answer Aurelia’s words.

Saint Aerith. Not only was it not enough for her to lose her arm because of her, a woman who was even imprisoned for colluding with the demons.

Lowe felt guilty for her like that.

So every day at the mansion I thought about her and thought of ways to help.

But Lowe was silent at Aurelia’s remark.

I thought that if I asked Aurelia in a subtle way, she would do me a favor, but she didn’t even give me the chance.

After all, the problem happened at his own party. The responsibility of the party leader, Law, could not be avoided to some extent.

Seeing Lowe’s dark expression, Aurelia wrapped her arms around his waist as if sorry.

“Sorry. low. But please understand. To protect you and this empire, this is the best thing.”

“·········Yes, princess.”

“First, we focus on the enemy in front of us. And we’ll talk about this again later.”

Rowe barely nodded at her words.

enemy in front of you. Right now, the demon lord who wants to invade this capital has more priority.

He made up his mind and decided to focus on the task of sealing the demon lord for now.

Looking at him like that, Aurelia looked at him with loving eyes.

‘Don’t worry, Rowe. Because I will get rid of that woman from your worries as soon as possible.’

And when this case is resolved, I decided to deal with the saint first.

It was time for the sun to set and the stars to rise.

Serin, exhausted after work, was walking down the street limping.

Those tired steps were so pitiful that even those who saw them felt sorry for them.

But Kael hasn’t shown her a single mercy in the past few weeks.

Rather, the more she got used to the job, the more she increased the amount.

Every day, her body smells strange, and she couldn’t find her figure as a princess anywhere.

That’s why, at the very least, I wore a dress every day.

“Uhhh…..”

The dress was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, she sobbed angrily in her suspenders and casual work clothes.

A dress that Abamama gave to her in commemoration of becoming a hero. But since I wore it every day, I didn’t have time to wash it.

Cael, who did not see it, took it and threw it into the water, so he had to wear work clothes for a while.

Well, I was able to endure it while wearing it. Serin couldn’t contain her sadness and opened the door of the house while smirking.

“Everyone, I’ve been…”

Serin comes in with her shoulders drooping.

Looking at her like that, Cael pointed to the meat on the table.

“Uh, uh…?”

Serin’s eyes widened when she saw the meat, and all of a sudden the tears stopped.

Meat, how much meat? In the Empire, she ate so much every day, but now she was so desperate that saliva ran through her lips.

But why are you giving it? Serin, who forgot to wash and was about to eat, glanced at Kael with suspicious eyes.

I’m a person who’s usually fussy and fussy, but there must be some intention. certainly······.

“Because you’ve been through a lot.”

“Yes?”

kael came over and patted Serin on the head, and said softly.

“It is a reward for hard work. So, take it easy.”

“·······I really?”

“Of course. There are more, so tell me if you want to eat.”

Why is this man doing this? Serin felt uneasy about his pretentious appearance, but that didn’t last long.

While eating the meat in front of her, she was busy savoring the gravy.

“tasty······.”

Although it was obviously cheaper than eating at the mansion, it was several times more delicious than that. Cael watched silently as Serin was so moved that she picked up the meat and ate it.

‘You never know when Aurelia will come, so you have to tame it in the meantime.’

I don’t really like it, but it’s better than not having a kid like that.

Cael thought so and watched her eat another plate of meat.
