Chapter 59.2. My Dad Is Cool, You Know
“Wait! Wait, Miu!”
“No, Kazamichi-san. I decline your earlier answer. If you say that a succession battle is about to begin, you can choose other people. Like your other relative, a wind magician, have good managerial skills.”
My dad tells grandpa Kazamichi once and for all. That’s cool. There’s a lie in Grandpa Kazamichi’s line. He said my dad should think about being his heir, but the replacements didn’t have to be his sons. No small number of people can use wind magic and have managerial skills, which is what the Takano family is all about.
To say that he could only ask my dad. That’s a lie. It’s a storytelling technique that narrows the options and makes them think there’s no other way.
“Mmm. I can’t trust you to do it if you’re not a direct blood relative!”
“That’s not my business anymore. I don’t ask you to understand. You’ve always been a person who always pushes through with your plans.”
“……Okay, I get it. I will listen to your selfishness for now. But you’ll come back to the Takano family sooner or later. That’s not only my wish. It’s the absolute future to come. Don’t think that you will always be safe under the protection of the Teijo family.
“I know.”
He spoke like a prophet and left. What can I say? He’s a little bit of a cool villain. He understands how to leave.
I even wonder if that alien is this old man’s child. I can’t believe that the good guy, my cool dad, is his kid, too.
“Hey, Miu. Let’s have a cake together sometime. You seem like an interesting girl. I’ll treat you to a cake made by a famous pastry chef, okay?”
As I started to walk to talk to my friend again, Grandma Tomoe then smiled at me.
Hmmm. It’s will be tough to keep up with this old lady. Even in the game, she only requested me to do troublesome quests.
“Please make an appointment!”
So I smile and wave my arms bye-bye. I’ll think about it when I’m on the same level as the old lady. Un-un.
“Pwahhaha. I got it. I’ll see you next time. I should get back soon. His Majesty will be angry with me.”
After a few laughs, Grandma Tomoe also left, and peace is finally … not found.
“The Hidden Temple has been released! Caw!”
With a flap of his wings, Munin landed on the table. He turned his red eyes on me and cawed.
“There’s a lot of Scissors Mantis in the air. Caw.”
“Damn, I knew it was this party!”
I clicked my tongue at Munin’s report. I thought it might not be the same party. In the original story, the hero and the saint get mixed up in the commoners’ party.
Since the original story moved from the unveiling on the balcony to the commoners’ party, I expected a significant time lapse. I thought there would be more time, but I’m wrong. I thought there would be time to have Munin look for something strange and reseal it. It’s a failure.
“Where are Shin and Seina?”
“They’re mixed up in a party in the commoner’s section, Caw.”
“When did that happen? They were on the balcony just now!”
I thought I couldn’t use the transfer system, but they were moving from the palace to the commoners’ party site, which is also quite far away from here. Oh shit, there was probably an emergency transition team or something in the palace. They used it.
“How many mantises are there?”
“It looks like the eggs have hatched! 10 thousand, including adults and juveniles.
The number made me dizzy. Oh no, there were too many.
“I’m going to the bathroom!”
I tell Tamamo, and run out from the group that had conquered all the dishes. I’m so flustered that I’m afraid I’ll leak, but Tamamo waved me off and told me to be careful.
“You’re sure this place is well guarded,?”
“The noble area has a lot of warriors guarding the area. Caw.”
“Besides, the nobles themselves can fight. Mama and Papa will be fine.”
It was the same in the original story. The nobles didn’t have any deaths at all. That causes the commoners’ animosity and the emperor’s influence to decrease.
It started with the sacrifice of a lot of mob people.
[Talking to a companion: Frigg]
Running through the crowd, I select the command to speak to the faraway party. Frigg’s face appears as a hollow hologram.
[Frigg. Did you finish what I asked you to do?]
[Yes. As you see.]
Frigg took out a necklace with a rusty ring on it and smiled bewitchingly. I thought it would be difficult to infiltrate the palace, but it seems she managed to get in. She’s indeed Thief IV onee-chan.
[Then where’s the next place?]
[I’m just sitting here, relaxing, waiting.]
Okay, she has done everything I asked. I love my new companion’s dependability.
[Then it’s all going according to plan. Time’s up.]
[Hmm, I see.]
[Yeah, that’s right. So do it!]
[I understand, my lady.]
I give the order with a stern look. My double teeth peeled like fangs. I grin, and the screen with Frigg’s reflection disappears.
And so the roar of tank guns echoed through the party hall.
