Manowa

Chapter 438: Let's Advance to the Royal Capital

I had a dream like that.

It seemed she had a dream.

It seemed that when Kazane became dizzy in the bath and collapsed, she had a dream. Kazane deliberately prevented any talk about the strange pose she collapsed in by bringing up that topic instead. In order to prevent any leaks of that secret sexiness, Kazane didn't stop talking.

And there were only the 3 players and Tatsuo in that place. Since all those members happened to be present, Kazane brought up their original world.

Umm, so, the pose...

However, there was one man who couldn't help but be more curious about the pose that Kazane collapsed in than in the story of the dream. He was named Naoki. But Kazane didn't want to talk about it. Or rather, since Naokie desired it, she felt unpleasant. So Kazane shouted,

Be quiet!

In English; Kazane-san was smart, so she was fluent in English. She meantThere's a more important story, so please be quiet, idiot.However, Naoki was far from being a smart person, so he couldn't understand. Rather, he was a perilous man who would only be able to reply with the philosophical questionWhat is English?

What was the pose?

Then Kazane kicked Naoki, the person who couldn't read the situation, with all her strength to seal his mouth. In other words, it was punishment for sexual harassment. There is some ambiguity in the definition of sexual harassment based on what the other person thinks, so being as cautious as possible is indispensable. Some say that a certain degree will be overlooked if the man is handsome enough, but based on Naoki, that rumor seems to be a lie.

I had a dream about that world for the first time in a while, you know?

Ah, I see. You got dizzy in the bath and dreamed of the original world.

In any case, Kazane returned to the subject, and Naoki accurately discerned what his older sister desired through that kick, so he continued participating in the conversation without paying any mind to the fact that he was kicked. That was the daily life of siblings. They were close siblings. Yumika sighed, while Tatsuo didn't have any particular cares.

Well... I don't really remember the details anymore, though.

Kazane replied to Naoki with a bitter smile.

She had vividly remembered it when she just woke up, but now that time had passed, the details of her dream were already quite vague. However, Kazane remembered talking to Ma-kun, Maron, Miyasako, JINJIN, and Yasu. She also remembered meeting her father and mother, as well as Naoki before he grew up. Upon hearing that story, Yumika mutteredMiyasako and Kurimoto?

Ah, it feels like I haven't met those two in quite a long time, but it's been about half a year, I think?

Yumika said, and next to her, Naoki repliedNostalgic.

Marie-san? For me, I think it's been about 4 years? I'm already completely used to this world, though.

Naoki said, looking a little lonely. Marie was Miyasako's name. Marie Miyasako was reputed as a handsome woman who easily succumbed to loneliness.

Come to think of it, Naoki and Miya didn't start dating in the end?

We went on three dates, but she got a different boyfriend immediately after.

After Kazane's question, Naoki replied.

Aah, Hojo-senpai from the same club.

After Yumika's words, Naoki nodded.

I think it's probably that person. I was excessively glared at by him. That was scary.

Naoki shrugged and said that. A junior high student was glared at by a high school student. That was scary. But now, that was a nostalgic memory for Naoki.

Well, I was able to meet Dad and Mom, which was pleasantly nostalgic. The end.

So concluding, Kazane slapped her cheeks and stood up.

Mother, are you okay?

Yeah. No problem. Thanks, Tatsuo.

Kazane hugged Tatsuo tightly.

(Yeah, this isn't some kind of dream, is it)

Tatsuo was also Kazane's family. He wasn't a being from a dream; she could feel his heartbeat. Tatsuo was being exposed to Dragon Spirit loaded with Kazane's feelings, and he happily cried Kuwaa.

Then Naoki asked Kazane once again.

So then, the pose

Be silent.

This time, Kazane told Naoki in a way he would surely understand. She put her whole heart into the statement so that even an idiot could understand.

And Kazane firmly refused to answer anything about it. The path of sexiness was secret. One must hide their fangs and kill their prey with a single blow. Kazane understood that.

Furthermore, as the person who looked after Kazane, Yumika didn't know what she was supposed to keep secret about the hawk pose Kazane collapsed in, so she kept her mouth shut for now. What would be a landmine was too uncertain.

Then, the White Party decided to leave Torda Hot Spring Town that day.

Kazane and the others judged it was better to leave Torda Hot Spring Town as fast as possible, before rumors about the Berserk Ogre and Yuuko-nee spread. It was in the style of running off in the night. Being famous was painful.

After Kazane and the others left Torda Hot Spring Town, they started advancing to Minshiana.

When they arrived at their subsequent stop, the Kazane Twin Dragons Hot Spring Palace located in Rock Hold City, Kazane's eyes opened wide, but the fact that all of Kazane's share of the profits was invested into remodeling made them open even wider.

The merchant Zakuro, who was managing the palace, proposed changing the name of Kazane Twin Dragons Palace to Kazane Twin Dragons Onsen Ryokan; treating her as the owner, just like Louise with her own hot spring; and properly deciding where to send the money. After thinking, Kazane decided to do everything Zakuro stated.

Also, she only realized this after it was over, but thinking back on it, Kazane hadn't thought of anything. Everything was Zakuro's ideas. It was startling. Since there weren't any particular issues, Louise hadn't said anything, which made it even harder for her to notice.

And the remittance designation was Kazane Magic Hot Spring Town. She planned to have her Muscle Clay royalties from Minshiana and architecture technology royalties from Hyvern sent to Kazane Magic Hot Spring Town as well. She planned to ask Makka, the acting feudal lord, to manage and effectively use them. Kazane thought that Makka would surely manage them well and increase them further. Do your best, Makka.

As for Kazane Magic Hot Spring Town, it seemed that construction was proceeding favorably. The Demi Crystal Dragon bestowed by Kazane was also working splendidly, and she was told that it had driven monsters away several times recently.

However, beyond automatic defensive actions, the Demi Crystal Dragon only followed Makka's orders, so she had sent a tearful message sayingMaking me go out on the front lines is too much!

Kazane repliedDo your bestfor now, but next time she went there, she planned to redo the settings so Kimberly could give it orders. Do your best, Makka.

In addition, the plan to have her secure space for Kazaneland's construction was going forward. Since Yuuko-nee was also involved with that, Makkaa's stomach was scheduled to hurt even more. Do your best, Makka. If you overcome everything, you should become a guild master or senior executive of Zenith Firm.

With this and that, Kazane and the others safely entered Minshiana's territory. The journey continued without incident, and about 6 days after leaving Torda Hot Spring Town, the party arrived at Royal Capital Shubain

Surprisingly, they weren't hindered by a huge monster, groups of monsters, or devils along the way, but arrived at their destination without any issues. It felt like a portent of something ominous happening soon.

Minshiana Kingdom, Royal Castle Delgura

Hold on, Yumika. We've arrived at the castle. Is it safe?

Be careful, Kazane. We may be hallucinating. Perhaps we're actually still fighting assassins, and along the way, we'll wake up to being toldDid you have a good dream?

Not a chance.

As Kazane and Yumika felt suspicious about everything going too smoothly, Naoki retorted from behind them. In the first place, big problems weren't something that readily happened when traveling normally.

There was the possibility of monster and bandit attacks, but few people could keep up with the speed of Kazane's carriage. Also, because of the signs given off by Yuuko-nee on top of the carriage and the Dragon Spirit wafting from Hippomaru-kun's ram, there was no way the low Level monsters residing in Minshiana's plains would try to approach. In short, Kazane and the others wouldn't be attacked unless there was a major incident.

However, their history up till now had to be taken into account. The White Party had been successively embroiled in major incidents. They'd never had a journey without incident, so it was no wonder that they were on guard.

As Kazane and Yumika were vigilant, Tatuso started talking.

Mother. I feel the signs of a dragon.

While listening to Tatsuo's voice from on top of her head, Kazane looked up at the sky.

Aah, it smells like Karza.

Kazane also perceived him with the SkillDog's Sense of Smell.

GURUooO!

Kazane!

Then, the white dragon Karza rushed out from one of the castle's balconies and descended. Naturally, Prince Sieg was riding on his back.
