29 – return – 2

The fact that I was getting ready to achieve all the achievements was making me happy.

So, when I returned to the palace by teleportation, I couldn’t erase the laughter that came to my mind.

“hahaha.”

If you keep going like this, you can really achieve all the achievements in one year.

ruler. So what are the achievements that can be solved quickly among the remaining achievements?

Among the achievements floating in the gray window, how long has it been since you looked at the list of unachieved achievements?

The door burst open.

“Master!”

She was a beautiful girl with blazing red hair. She was breathing heavily as if she had come running, but as soon as she saw me, she smiled brightly.

“You’re back!”

“Ah. Yes.”

You know what? I haven’t told anyone about my return yet. As I looked, Lucille blushed and shook her head slightly.

“S, I installed an alarm magic in Master’s room.”

“Huh? Why did you do that?”

“That’s… I was afraid that someone would touch Master’s things carelessly… Why, Master is a wise man?”

“Yes?”

“Because Master may have important items only for him. So…”

But can a thief enter the palace?

Well, thinking about what happened last time makes me anxious.

I didn’t ask her anymore as she looked at me while holding the hem of her dress tightly with her fingers wrapped in white silk gloves. If I asked more, my face would explode.

Well, there’s nothing wrong with installing the alarm magic, so don’t worry about it.

“How did you go to the battlefield?”

“Even so, I decided to report that. The audience request is…”

“If I go with you, you won’t have to ask for an audience!”

“Then let’s go.”

“yes!”

With Lucille smiling brightly, I headed straight to the audience room. Perhaps because Lucille was with her, there were not many preparations to meet the Queen.

After a little time and a check on any possible assassinations, I was able to enter the Queen’s office.

“You’ve worked hard. Sage. The report on what happened on the battlefield…”

“I have been asked to report to General Leoden. This is the report.”

I handed out the journal and report written in detail by General Leoden’s adjutant.

After receiving it, the queen flipped through the report and looked at me, and I started talking about what I had been through.

And, as the story progressed, Lucille’s face was strangely changing.

“I see. You received a lot of help from the church.”

“Yes. Veronica put a lot of effort into it.”

“Cardinal Veronica… She’s quite hostile towards cults. By the way, being friendly with her. What a surprise. Sage.”

“Until something great.”

“No, it’s great enough. I heard that Cardinal Veronica has had strong divine power since she was a child and was kept in check by many people.”

Well, there was a story like that in Veronica’s profile. And I’ve heard it myself before.

“I hear that’s why she doesn’t get along easily with people, especially those who aren’t part of the church… Hmm.”

The queen glanced towards Lucille. Wondering why, I looked at her too. Noticing their gaze, she slightly lowered her head to avoid making eye contact with us.

“It sure is great. Is it about how to live in the world?”

“That’s it.”

“My daughter, who was always frightened and confined to the corner of the room, personally commissioned adventurers…”

“For that part, I’m just grateful to the princess.”

“Did it help?”

“Yes. Very much. If it hadn’t been for the adventurers when defeating the Pale Moon…”

“What if it wasn’t?”

“I must have suffered a little more.”

Of course I wouldn’t have broken it.

You can take two of the warrior party kids, cover them mentally, and even protect Veronica’s mentality.

Of course, that would have made me quite tired.

“To hear that I was helpful to Master… It’s such an honor… Yes, but there are many adventurers who gave it to me saying that it was for the wise man…”

“Hmm. I see. I make friends with various people of various statuses. It’s not easy, but to do such a thing. I also want to learn the art of living.”

The Queen put down the report with a rare smile. Anyway, I think the words of congratulations are over, can I go out now?

“Your actions are changing the princess a lot.

Oh clothes?! Recognized by the Queen?

When it was confirmed that the rank related to ‘map’ had risen, laughter came out naturally.

The road to becoming an S-class teacher is progressing step by step!

“Sage. I have something to offer you.”

“What is it?”

“I’d like to entrust you with the position of teacher of the royal family.”

“Because he is the teacher of the royal family…”

“Afterwards, when Lucille ascends the throne, she becomes the teacher of the king and teaches the royal family from generation to generation. The most important thing for a leader is the ability to make friends with many people.”

“I guess so.”

“Can you continue to pass it on to the royal family?”

The Queen’s voice was sincere, and I smiled.

“Ah. That’s a bit.”

“… Huh? It must be quite an honor? Also, the treatment is at the level of royalty…”

“All I teach is Princess Lucille.”

When I flatly refused, the queen erased her smile, but she had no intention of piercing her nose here.

“There… Master.”

“Yes?”

After the audience with the queen, he returned to the garden where he always had lessons. Lucille spoke to me while I was checking the homework I was told to do while I was gone.

“You only want to teach me…”

“It is literally.”

“That’s right. Then Master no longer has a disciple…”

“There won’t be any more.”

My goal is to be an S-class teacher, so when I finish that, I have to go do something else.

Raising a disciple is something that requires quite a bit of time, effort, and investment, so I didn’t want to spend my energy on useless things.

There are still many things to do, but when will you do them again?

It’s fortunate that Lucille listens and follows her words well. If you get caught with strong personalities like the warrior party kids or the nobles you met during the main story or adventure, it’s really…

Ugh, just imagining it is terrifying.

“It’s an honor. I think I can brag about it to the royal family.”

“Why do you go that far?

“Puhuh. Master too. Hey. By the way, Master. Didn’t something happen with the hero and the others?”

“A job?”

It seems that the children’s condition has gone a little tasteless, but there was nothing particularly problematic.

It didn’t really interfere with my achievements.

“Is that…is that so? Claire-sama… Hey. Visit me when you’re on the battlefield…”

“There’s a lot to come.”

“That, something like that?! Ho, maybe something… improved the relationship…”

“There is no such thing.”

“Ah… ah… I see…”

“I don’t know why you care about that… Anyway, the freezing magic is a bit weak.”

“Ah. Yes.”

“Then, let’s focus on practicing freezing magic today. Now, then…”

“By the way, Master.”

“Yes.”

“What is your relationship… with Cardinal Veronica?”

veronica? Well…

“He’s a colleague who risked his life together.”

“A colleague… is that enough?”

“He’s also a friend.”

No matter what she thinks, Veronica is probably my best friend right now because she has a lot of connections and is one of the few sane people in the world.

It’s a warrior party, it’s a pure business relationship.

“Chi, friend… Are you a friend? Hey. Master has… lots of friends, right?”

Do you have many friends

More if more, less if less.

It’s me, I just think of everyone as friends when I talk to them.

“Yes. Well, it’s a lot.”

“That’s right… I’m glad.”

Lucille, who seemed relieved, dropped her chest and smiled brightly. It’s a pretty smile, but…

“It’s been a long time since I’ve had a class. Are you going to keep saying something else?”

“Oh! I’m sorry!”

After hearing my voice, Lucille barely focused and began to use the freezing magic.

Certainly, the power of freezing magic is weak. The number of spells that can be used is limited.

After making Lucille use magic until she was exhausted, I crossed my arms and thought.

Come to think of it, there was a way to enhance the effect of freezing magic.

“I will prepare the training method for this part separately.”

“how?”

“I’m thinking of going to the dungeon. It’s not that far from the capital.”

“I know!”

After finishing the class with Lucille, I headed to the adventurer’s guild. I checked to see if the guild had a mission related to that dungeon, but so far there has been no request. It’s a pity.

But let’s not be disappointed.

Because the request related to that dungeon is also ordered by the church.

“Did you come back after a day?”

I stopped by the church and was looking for a request at the request office when I heard a familiar voice.

It was Veronica. Since the Pale Moon event is over and there has been no special event in the game, it seems that nothing big has happened to her.

“Uh. Hey. Do you have any requests related to the Dungeon of Darkness?”

“A dungeon of hate? Hmm… I think there was one from my memory. Priest Roberto. Isn’t there a request from Sir Buankamen?”

“Ah. Yes. But that’s not a quest with a good reward… I wonder if I can leave it to the wise man.”

“It’s okay, so give it to me.”

“All right.”

The priest who went inside came out with a request. It must have been a fairly old request, and the paper is quite worn.

“It’s to get eternal ice that can only be obtained in the dungeon of harsh snow…”

“Ah. That’s nice.”

Eternal Ice is a japtem that can be obtained by defeating the Ice Golem, the boss of the Dungeon. I had to break there anyway for Lucille’s sake, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

“I will.”

“Is that so? By the way, I recommend a party of 3 for the Dungeon of Darkness… Does the Sage have someone to go with?”

First of all, Lucille must be worn… and the other one can be taken from the adventurer’s guild.

“I’m going. What are you going to do with the remaining seat?”

“Huh? You?”

“Why. Don’t you like it?”

no, i don’t hate it Veronica would be of great help.

But since it’s a request from the church, can church people wear it?

“it’s okay.”

“That’s it.”

“The other one… uhm. If you’re thinking of taking a warrior’s party…”

“Why are you taking them?”

“…Oh yeah? Then who is it? Anybody with decent skills…”

I said calmly to her, who was somehow delighted.

“Lucille.”

At that moment, Veronica’s smile hardened.

“…Could that Lucille be the Lucille I know? Your disciple, the princess?”

“That’s right. Ah. Your skills must be a bit bad. I’m still at the level of an intermediate wizard.”

However, as it is a dungeon raid to train Lucille, she has no choice but to take her with her.

If you don’t like it, you have to take the other kids except Veronica.

When I went to the adventurer’s guild earlier, there were some guys hanging out.

“Lucille… Lucille… Lucille… Whoops.”

With her arms crossed, Veronica muttered Lucille’s name several times. It’s kind of creepy to see a guy with no change in his original expression, smiling only with his voice, with his expressionless face and the light in his eyes lost.

“Right.”

“What’s the matter?”

“No. Let’s go together. When are you going?”

“The Dungeon of Snow is not too far from the capital. I’ll go as soon as you arrive. Then prepare… and inform the palace when you arrive. Ah. What will be fine?”

When I asked if she had a bad relationship with the royal family, she fortunately only shook her head slightly.

“Yes. As the sage’s ‘best friend’, your disciple. You may need to see it at least once. I look forward to it.”

Glad then

After patting her on the shoulder, I returned to the palace using teleportation.

And he told Lucille that Veronica was going with him.

“…Cardinal Veronica.”

“Yes. Do you have any problems?”

“Veronica… Veronica… Veronica… Whoops.”

Lucille clenched her fists and smiled at me.

“Yes. As Master’s ‘one and only’ disciple, meeting a friend must be important.”

Five.

That’s great.

I’m raising one of my pupils well.
