Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

Perhaps he was surprised at my open-mouthed dismay, but on the contrary, the king of Maintia looked at me strangely.

"What's the matter?"

"I ...... no, I mean, are you ...... insane?"

What the hell are you talking about?

The king of Maintia looked increasingly unsure. For my part, I don't understand the man himself. To my surprise, he wants to marry our Piatrice to Onsar. A bolt from the blue.

"Royalty decides which country they will marry as soon as possible after the birth of a child. Well, in my case, since I have so many children, there aren't many places to marry, so I am forced to marry into the ranks of our country's nobility. Onsar and Piatrice are the same age, and they grew up together here in Agartha. It would be better for her than marrying into a family she does not know at all, wouldn't it?　Or does Lady Piatris already have a bride?"

"No, ...... I want my daughter to be free to fall in love and find her own mate."

When he says that much, the main tier king's voice changes. His voice is low and husky.

"Well, then, is it just a rumor that you are engaged to the Crown Prince of the Heedata Empire?

"Oh, that's the one. ......"

"No, you don't have to tell everyone. No, you don't have to tell everyone. I'm not going to get into that, either. But I don't think this is a bad thing for Agartha, do you?　No, listen to me. When Piatris joins the Onsar, our country's information will be shared with Agartha. ...... Don't you understand?　You don't think they'd let her go in alone, do you?　Of course, the maidens will be there with them. If you ask me to keep them by my side, I cannot refuse. Thus, the people of Agartha can enter the depths of my castle in Arisn. Do you understand what I mean?"

Why would you go to such lengths?

"Of course!　Because I want to be on friendly terms with Agartha!　I have Onsar as a hostage now, but if I let him take the daughter of the king of Agartha, my Hradime kingdom will be on a firm footing. Don't you think so?"

"Hah ......"

"Anyway, I want you to think about this once. If it doesn't work, then I'll teach my son how to make women fall in love with him. And I will win your heart. On the other hand, that might be better for King Agartha, don't you think?"

He is smiling and in a good mood. I sigh deeply as I watch him.

"Let's give her a thorough grounding in self-defense," he says.

"Yeah?　What do you mean?"

"You're going to drag me to bed by my arms anyway, aren't you?　Then I'll make sure she learns self-defense so that she can fight any man who attacks her. If he practices it now, he will be very good at it.

"Ha ha ha!　This is a disaster!　I lost this time. But I would be happy if you would consider marrying Onsar at least once, if not right now."

I shook my head in silence.

A month later, we received a letter from the Great High King officially announcing the conference and an invitation to attend. The date of the conference was set for April 14, and I told the Great Sage King's retainer who brought the letter that I would gladly participate in the conference.

He said, "Sir, ...... I am truly, truly, truly sorry to trouble you.

The messenger man talks to me in this cold weather with a little sweat on his forehead. He takes a deep breath and continues to speak.

He takes a deep breath and continues to speak, "We, the Great High King of Japan, would like you to come to our country in advance, Meirias-sama.

He said that the Grand King wanted to present the Hladime side as a joint research project with Agartha, and that he wished to work with Mei and his group to prepare for the presentation. In other words, the conference will be held in two months, but he would like May to enter Hradime a month early so that they can prepare for the presentation together.

"I know I am asking a lot of you. However, the intellectual curiosity of our great king knows no bounds. ....... To the end, the Great High King only wishes to improve the quality of learning. ......"

"I know. I know. I'm not like your Main Tier king, am I?　I have met the Great High King myself, so I know who he is. But I also have plans for my wife. May I have a moment of your time?　It's already night. Can I get back to you tomorrow?"

"No, thank you. Thank you very much."

He bowed reverently.

I went back to the house and had dinner. I bathed the children and went into the bedroom to find May. It was May's day.

"Is Alyria with Soleil ...... as usual?"

"Yes."

Alyria is a fickle girl; one day she wants to sleep with Mei, the next day she sleeps in Soleil's room. On the other hand, Eryl is very attached to Matkal. Even on Matkal's day, he wants to sleep with me in my bedroom. But Alyria never says she wants to sleep with me. I'm a little sad about that.

"Alyria can't sleep without a lullaby," she says.

She always likes May's or Soleil's lullabies. Soleil's songs are especially effective and she falls asleep quickly. But my songs and Rico's songs do not put her to sleep. Rico sings in a very beautiful voice, but it seems to be no good for her. I tried several times to sing to Ruara, a priestess who sings and dances to the god of the sea, but to no avail. When she was a baby, she cried as if she were on fire, and even now, when she hears her singing, she instantly becomes quiet. Now she is very useful as a punishment for her bad behavior, but Luara is a little hurt by her position. In fact, Ruara's enka is very good. Her fist pumping has become excellent. Thanks to this, Tori, the queen of the sea, is in a very good mood, and Luara has become an indispensable part of her mental stability.

"Well, the time of sleeping with lullabies will soon be over. It's the only time she gets to do that, so maybe it's precious. When they get older, I'm sure they will start sleeping by themselves.

"Yes, that's right."

We exchanged smiles as we said these things. In the meantime, I tell him about the Grand King's intention that I had just heard at the guesthouse. She was thinking about something for a while, and then slowly opened her mouth.

"I think it's good to know that the Huladime nation has made this discovery.

"Hm?　Why not?　Wasn't it Mei and her team who originally examined Orjin's puke ...... vomit?"

"But ...... it was the Great High King who discovered its effects, and ......"

"That's unusual for May. Don't you love that kind of collaboration?"

"No, ...... that ...... you haven't left for a month."

"Are you worried about Alyria?"

"......"

May is staring at me. Then she slowly takes her eyes off me and opens her mouth shyly.

"I can't stay ...... by ...... master's side for a month."

"What?　Why not?　You can come home."

"What?"

"You're taking Roni with you, right?　You can come home with me at night."

"Oh, ......."

May's face is bright red. I haven't seen her like this in a long time. How cute.

"Ha-ha-ha!　That's a rare, big joke for May."

"...... sorry. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to be with you."

"Okay, thank you, Mei. Well, I'll let the king know you're here, okay?　I'll leave the details to you, Mei, and ask you to take care of them.

"Yes, sir."

May turned down her head, red up to her ears, looking embarrassed. I thought her expression was really cute and hugged her gently.

That night, May was unusually bright-eyed and didn't let me sleep until late at night.
