Chapter 108
After putting Big Lorry at home, we carried our luggage and returned to the previous transfer point . The royal capital of Courson Kingdom, Sakuon can be seen from a distance now .
The last time we transferred to Earth, we still have a considerable distance to the previous royal capital even though we can see it from a distance as the risk of witnessing Big Lorry will increase if we get too close to the city .
However, If we switch to walking from that distance in case if Big Lorry could be seen by someone, there would be an unexpected distance and it would be hard to reach the city as we had already experienced something like that last time . However, its also dangerous to get too close that much .
Yup, this was where I have to use my excellent judgement .
Sabine: Nee-sama~ are we there yet?
Mitsuha: I-its a bit more
I made a mistake on my judgement .
I and Sabine-chan were exhausted .
The only one who is still fine is the wild child and the real little girl, Colette-chan .
And that Colette chan asked in wonder while looking at us who have become completely exhausted .
Colette: Mitsuha, Wouldnt it be okay to just transfer to a place where you can see that theres no people around after putting Big Lorry?
Mitsuha & Sabine: Ah
I have explained to Sabine-chan and Colette-chan that there was no burden or anything for me to use transfer and that I only said its a heavy burden due to political considerations . Otherwise, the two of them wont allow me to use transfer without any reservation . I also explained about the details of what I can done and of course, about how I can always transfer to a place that I have visited once or some place where I could see with my eyes as well and about how I used to do so frequently to avoid oncoming carriages with Big Lorry .
Sabine: Nee-sama, explain!
Mitsuha: Sorry, I didnt think about that
Yesterday, after suffering from Kuro-chan (something like Guruguru shaa!) , we finished bathing together and slept soundly at home .
(TL Note: I can only found out that its an old anime called Cyborg Kuro-chan and theres a Guruguru nyaa in the opening . FUNA-sensei probably wants to say Moving here and there . )
And today, we will finally arrive at our second destination, that is the royal capital of Courson Kingdom, Sakuon .
No, we had seen the royal capital days ago but we transferred to Earth soon after that . Hence, we have just arrived today . Im feeling a little sense of discomfort from this, but lets not mind the small things!
We had been separated a long distance with the main unit, but because we had spent a bit of time on Earth, they should have caught up to us for a considerable distance .
Or rather, not good, I have to contact them soon!
Mitsuha: Change of schedule, we need to return to my territory immediately!
Sabine & Colette: Eeeeeehh?
This time, when we returned to the territory, we were found out by Ria-chan who is a 4-year-old-, no, if Im not mistaken, she has turned 5 years old now, right?
Ria: W, w-w-w-welcome back!
Ria-chan gave a proper welcome greeting after being flustered for a bit and went to inform everyone in a hurry . Yup, how cute~ .
We went to my office while the tea was being prepared in great haste . I then changed the radio frequency to the ones in the royal palace and pushed the PTT (Push-to-Talk) switch .
Mitsuha: Checkmate King One, Checkmate King One, This is White Rook, over .
Then, the person who is in charge with the communication device at the royal palace went to call the king in a hurry .
The king finally came and I reported about our arrival at Courson Kingdoms royal capital and asked him to inform the main party as well .
Though, I even have to confirm their arrival plan as well for tomorrow .
After that, I let Sabine-chan talked to the king for a bit . Yeah, although shes strong, Sabine-chan is still a 10-year-old girl .
Sabine: Father, Ive built an intimate relationship with Princess Remia, so I have earned 10 points to our agreement, yes?
By using that, Ill refuse everyone, such as School friends or Playmates who I have mentioned before, okay? Because I have no interest at all with a Dukes stupid son, a Marquis selfish daughter, and such!
T-thats scary, oi!
After that, Sabine-chan and Colette-chan had a gathering with everyone in Yamano Household Maid Corps while we were having our tea and sweets . Though, they were just playing together, you see .
In the meantime, I discussed with Anton-san the butler, Willem-san and Miriam-san to check the situation of my territory and instructed some orders for certain cases .
If we eat our lunch somewhat slow this time, we have to go back to the other side again as we have to decide our lodging first . We perhaps cant choose the inn easily just like last time, so we need to get a good lodging before its too late as theres a possibility that it might be full-booked .
Above all, safety comes first .
Mitsuha: Alright, time to go back .
Colette: yes
Sabine: Ye~s!
Colette-chan seems to be a bit reluctant, while Sabine-chan acted nonchalantly . Last time was the first playing with a normal friend experience for Sabine-chan, but it seems that she acted like this is perhaps because she now knows that she can see them again or because she feels safe because they are already friends with her .
Well, we still have to come back tomorrow to check the situation of the main unit, though .
Because its troublesome to transfer Big Lorry to the outskirts just to contact them every time, so I will inevitably contact from here when we are in any town .
Yup, the number of times I come here will likely increase .
Although it doesnt matter if I transfer in front of all the servants, I still dont want to waste my time to surprise them . Hence, we transferred back after returning to my room .
Besides, my room must be locked from the inside, and I have to set the crime prevention system as well because its absolutely forbidden for anyone to enter other than Sabine-chan or Colette-chan when they are together with me .
Mitsuha: Okay then, lets go . Transfer!
Gatekeeper: only three children? Could you come here for a moment?
Aah, again? We have to do this again?
After that, the three of us received some lectures from the gatekeeper once again .
Mitsuha: Alright, we finally arrived at the second kingdom!
I shouted vigorously .
Yes, not Sabine-chan nor Colette-chan, but it was me .
And, the people around us were smiling, or rather, looking at us with a warm gaze .
Shut up! You dont need to say anything!
At any rate, we, the lord and its retainers who endured the questioning and lecturing for about half an hour from the gatekeeper have safely enter the royal capital, Sakuon .
Well, to be specific, Sabine-chan is the Lord, Im the Retainer, and Colette-chan is the Retainers retainer .
Anyway, its a new kingdom and a new royal capital! Lets look for an inn right away .
Mitsuha: Do you have a triple room?
Its a luxury inn in the center of the city facing the main street just like usual .
As one would expect, theres no such thing as shady customers coming in and out, or not being cleaned and maintained even as a joke because this is the royal capitals representative store, that is to say, the face of their kingdom .
Then, a smiling front young man in his early 20s came and greeted us .
Frontman: Yes, we do have it . Do you a guardian with you?
Yeah yeah, unlike the first place weve been to in the previous kingdom, he responded properly and not treating us as kids .
As expected, an employee of a high-class inn should be like this, right?
Well, we didnt try to go to any inn besides this place yet, so we came up with a bit of plan .
Yes, by wearing a dress that can be clearly seen as an upper-class ladys outfit . They should now be able to think that we are nobles or daughters of a big merchant .
At least for Sabine-chan who has a High-class noble aura around her, that is .
Sabine-chan, you have that kind of special skill, huh . ?
Me and Colette-chan? No matter how good our clothes are, we can not hide the commoner aura that is exuding from our whole body, yup .
I didnt say anything about being a princess or delegation from another kingdom as I dont like to say needless things, to be treated specially, or to be targeted and interrogated for information .
Mitsuha: They will arrive later and meet up in this city . I will not make a reservation for them as we havent decide whether we will stay in the same inn or not, but they will probably stay here if there is a room available .
Yes, I wont make an uncertain promise, giving money to people nor being a guarantor for loan as that is my familys motto .
The reason why I wont lend money is because long ago, my ancestor who was running a lumbering industry and having a good business, thoughtlessly lent his money to the people . Hence, it seems that a complaint came from a branch manager of a certain bank, saying, Thats our job so dont get in our way! .
Therefore, a non-aggression pact was signed at that time, reading, Our household wont lend money to the people and banks wont sell woods as well .
No, Im not sure if its true or if its a mere fiction to bind the descendants .
And, of course, even a fool knows about the guarantor thing .
Well, in any case, we have secured our lodging safely .
And it seems that theres a bath as well in each room as that kind of facility would only be available in a high-class inn .
But, just because theres a bathtub, it seems that the employees will still have to carry the hot water and put it in themselves even though it seems to have a water pipe for drainage .
Therefore, its strictly prohibited to spill the hot water from the bathtub .
Of course, there is neither a shower nor reheating bathwater .
Lets just go to my house for a bath .
