Magic Gems Gourmet

A king's city on a certain day.

In a large conference room in the castle.

I'll leave the command to Leonard Forse.

This is what Warren suddenly said in front of the aristocrats surrounding the round table in the Great Room.

The command he spoke of was about a group of commanders who would be in contact with the Iron Nation.

Yes, my lord Chancellor!?

"Please wait! It is true that the Minister of Justice's message is excellent, and he has been showing his head recently..."

You're too young! You're still inexperienced even though it's a national affair!

Naturally, the nobility disagreed.

Leonard's father, the Duke of Forse, had a similar impression and sat next to Leonard, "This is the assessment that was directed at you. Good commandment," he flies.

Yes, I know.

Leonard took it seriously and thought it was too much for him.

But Warren took it lightly.

"I remember the new Red Dragon turmoil, and the command was very impressive at that time. You will remember that the knights also praised their skill."

But the aristocrats were still lonely.

Whatever Warren said about Leonard's past achievements, this disturbance certainly didn't seem heavy.

Seeing that, Warren said, "I can't help it."

He was a young civil servant - of course, but Leonard and the young nobility were forced out of the Great Conference Room.

Only those who have dedicated themselves to Ishtarika for a long time are left, and only the mighty ones who have all thrown themselves to the line of government.

Looking over at the mighty men, Warren drew attention to his self-confidence.

Is there anyone here who is mistaken?

A word that comes out of nowhere is somewhat provocative if you just listen to it.

However, Warren's voice was calm.

"Young people grow up on their own. It grows on its own over time."

Most of the nobles and clerks on the round table shook their heads.

Still, Warren kept going.

"Very well, then. Is there anyone among you who has forgotten the responsibility we good adults have to fulfill because Ein-sama's figure has burned to the ground?"

Everyone was flustered.

The contents of the example of Prince Ain were somewhat disrespectful, but everyone, including the Duke of Forse, came to understand what Warren wanted to say.

That's a good face. As expected, each and every one of you is a treasure of Ishtarika.

...... Oh my God.

...... See you again.

...... you're as good at talking as ever.

Everyone laughed lightly at Warren's point.

Most of the emotions that I couldn't convince before had already disappeared.

"I see you've understood." I'm thinking about Ishtarika in the future. "

However, it seems that the heavy load will not change.

"Honestly, I still have concerns. I agree to train the next civil servants....."

"... I see. I don't know what to say when the Duke of Forse is here, but if the command of your sigh is deficient, I hope you lose confidence in your sigh."

Listening to their voices, Warren laughed.

It was a high smile.

"Rest assured, of course, we should support the young commander with a strong structure." I'll put in an experienced cadre and try to be consulted at all times. "

However, there were still anxious aristocrats.

Among other things, there was still doubt in the mind of the Duke of Forse.

My child's prowess is high and he is incomparably better than a civil servant of his age. I was sure of that, but there was also immaturity in my child.

"Prime Minister, my son Leonard still lacks strength."

This was a fair word as a superior, not to protect my child.

Everyone thought the words were Duke Fols because he was the one who kept his integrity and neutrality from day to day.

However, the Duke of Fols also uttered a word that Warren could not disagree with.

But Warren also disagreed.

"You are afraid of failure." And I am concerned that the young talent will be crushed by that failure. "

But it doesn't matter.

"What's wrong with that? Have you ever been a young man? Young people have heavy loads? That is something I know for sure. But that would be trivial."

I opened my hands and glanced at everyone's faces.

Warren was Warren everywhere.

"We adults are here to support young people. I don't think we can wipe out one or two of our young people's failures, but... how about that?"

The provocation shook everyone's hearts.

To this day, all those who have dedicated themselves as the culmination of the civil service of Ishtarika will not disagree with Warren's words.

Apparently, you were convinced.

"If you don't agree, it's an insult to us."

"No problem. If the Chancellor thinks so, we will not risk our lives for Ishtarika, as we have always done."

Eventually, the young clerks and nobles who had been forced to leave the room were recalled.

They hear that everyone is convinced of Warren's decision, and they evenly bow their heads as to how they are convinced.

Among other things, Leonard was remarkable, and when he heard it, he returned to his father.

"Don't worry about it. We were only taught what we had forgotten."

And they only asked for the unanswered answer.

◇◇◇◇

― ― ― Soon, the selection was over.

Although the area became larger than planned, in view of Ein's going and the impact on the surrounding area, a detailed plan was formulated so as not to be alarmed by the iron country.

The group on its way was divided into two parts.

First of all, of course, Ein and the group.

The other is the first battle, which includes Mutton, Ist engineers, and Knights of the Guard.

Even though there was a twist and turn until this kind of flow, according to Mutton, who said that he would go, "I will see how it goes first."

They confirmed the existence of the hammer and confirmed as much as possible what kind of construction it was made of.

... an airship full of engineers stays in the skies west of the continent.

Mouton, who was on one of the ships, was troubling the young nobility who had commanded the group.

"Hey, hey, hey! Why can't I come with you?" What do you think you're doing here!? "

Mutton's tone is basically strong, but he is also a man who is relieved of his feelings.

However, Leonard Force, the first young nobleman to deal with him, wonders what happened to him.

If you consider yourself an aristocrat, you definitely have a better position.

"[]/(exp, adv) (uk) in any

"... it's difficult."

Will this man named Mutton listen honestly to the words of the nobility? Usually, it was very doubtful whether this man who was dealing with Ain would listen to those who had not yet succeeded him.

Lord Mutton, I'm sorry, but I'm on the verge of standing in the King's city. In fact ─ ─

Among these groups, I would like to follow the order until Mutton goes to the Iron Kingdom.

The reason is that he is the most important person for Ishtarika, but he thinks that it is important to let the civil servants check the situation of the iron country, and then carry the iron gavel to confirm the engineers.

Also, to summarize in more detail,

"As you know, this time, of course, Ein-sama was not accompanied by the Queen of the Iron Kingdom." Instead, there is her bodyguard, Giddo, who takes civilians and engineers to the Iron Kingdom. "

"Oh, I know."

"Of course, there is not necessarily no danger at that time." With everything in place, Lord Shearton may not be able to hold them hostage. That's why we're trying to move things forward in a few more steps to be more discreet. "

"... ho ho ho"

Mutton looked bored.

In the room he had prepared for me, I looked down out the window with a beard.

I'll talk to you instead, but it's down here, isn't it?

"You mean the iron country?"

Yeah. I don't think it's strange that an adventurer should be fishing for me anymore.

In any case, it's the plains that are spreading around.

In fact, nothing else.

The idyllic plains are stretching everywhere, and there's no harder place to go.

I thought it would be easier for an adventurer to get there...

"According to a dwarf named Giddo, he's hiding it. They use magic tools, a legacy of the past, to prevent them from detecting the path leading underground."

"That's a nice magic tool." I'm a blacksmith, too. "

"Yeah, actually, the engineers I brought with me are making my eyes shine."

"... if that's the case, let me go too."

"I'm sorry, I just said that."

Leonard still refused, and even though he looked at Mutton's powerful eyes, he did not pull back.

As a civil servant who had experienced the Red Dragon disturbances in the past, I couldn't back down here.

Shearling secretly laughs at the young, but surprisingly gutsy one.

"I'll change the story again, but was that giddo a good dwarf?" Even though the queen is still in King's City, I think she's going to go out of her way to escort you. "

"I don't have a choice. I think the Queen told me I had to."

"I don't know... I can't follow you so honestly, I wonder why you did such a stupid thing."

"I'm sure your Highness told me that too." Your Highness said that the former counselor of the Golden Route seemed to be doing something. "

That happened before I left the king's city.

Ain, who had come to see her off, had told Mutton everything she could tell him.

But Mutton said, "Huh?" He frowned.

"Was that so? Sorry, it's so hard that I don't understand. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Initially, Leonard remembered the difficulty of Mutton's personality.

If we didn't get along, we wouldn't be able to understand, because Leonard still didn't know if this guy was right or if he was missing.

But now I remember another difficulty.

Little by little, I was aware of the appropriateness, and I remembered the new concern.

"---I 'm worried. Do you really understand my explanation..."

The surprise and anxiety about being entrusted with a big job, the sense of responsibility for being entrusted with it, and the desire to succeed are very strong.

With so many emotions mixed in, there was a hint of anxiety in Mutton, who had never been approached.

Right after that.

Conkon and Mutton's room door were knocked on.

Upon hearing the two replies, a civil servant appeared.

"Dear Leonard, with your guidance, I'm going to check the entrance to the basement above ground level. I'm taking the engineers and the knights with me as planned, so I'm here to report."

"Yes, I did."

Oh, let's go then.

"Ugh... wait, wait!" Lord Mutton! As I said, Lord Mutton will be leaving later! That's why you have to wait here! "

"... you found out. I felt like I could do something about it."

Is this because there is no caution or gap?

Leonard, who sighed, sat Mutton down, and he sat down in the chair opposite him.

He turns his face to the clerk and tells him, "Please keep me company," and instructs him to carry out his mission.

The clerk laughed secretly when he left.

It seems that my tea was interesting.

"No, I just made a fool of myself for struggling with Lord Mutton."

"Come on, don't talk backwards. Let's wait for a cup of tea."

Why is he comforting me?

Thinking so, knowing that he was swallowing more at his own pace, Leonard put a cup of tea in his mouth that he could not help but prepare.
