Black Summoner Chapter 60

Chapter 60 Princess of TRAGE

At Trage Castle we are taken to a room that is about the size of a banquet hall. The reason why the banquet hall was used as a comparison is that this room has an unmistakable tatami mat. Not just tatami. This is a Japanese-style room that can be seen in Japanese inns. And in the back is the king of this country, King Trage.

“You've come a long way, adventurers and heroes. The current King Trage, Tsubaki Fujiwara."

Surprisingly, the king was a young girl. She may be younger than the heroes. However, the appearance full of elegance and confidence did not suit the age, it showed the style of the royal family. She looked like an old Japanese princess, with wet feathered black hair that stretches to reach the floor and wearing a gorgeous kimono.

(It's the first time I 've ever met someone with a family name. Well, it's a Japanese style.)

In this world, the only people with family names are nobility and royalty. This seems to be the same rule all over the world, and I have been using the appraisal eye until now, but I have never seen anyone with a family name. Even if you claim to be a new aristocrat, it seems you need a high level of “naming” skill, but it is not relevant now.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Kelvin. I am the leader of the adventurers' party. It is an honor for a mere adventurer to meet King Trage. The people behind me are Efil, Gerard and Sara. These are the people I trust.”

I kneel a bow my head. By the way, Clotho is hiding in my magical power. According to Melfina, Trage, in the past was destroyed by a Slime Glatonia, Clotho's race. Even though the size is different, I don't think it's a good idea to show him.

I would like to be courteous here and build a good relationship with the king. I'm not worried at all about Efil, who usually handles service, and Gerard, who was originally a knight, but the problem is Sara. As I said in advance, whether the demon Sara will give a courtesy to a human opponent even though it is a king…

“Am I not a former demon princess? I learn about this as part of my education. … And I'm not going to bother Kelvin.”

When I saw Sara, she was on one knee and paying homage to the king. Her appearance is elegant and full of grace as she can beat King Trage.

"… you will look like a princess if you do that more often."

“I hate it, it's too tiresome.”

“Really?”

…… Thank you. I'll say a thank you in my heart. Somehow, Sara always helps me.

Next, Touya and the others greet. After completing the introduction, King Trage's expression became softer.

"Good, raise your head. I'm not good at formal ceremonies. It is good to break a little from here. I've got enough seats. Sit back and relax."

(Cu…cushions! How nostalgic, Kanzaki-kun! Fluffy!)

(Oh, no way, in this world, you can sit on a cushion in a tatami room!)

The heroes are shouting with joy. It seems that the seiza sitting on top of the equivalent Golem was unbearable. The tension is a little strange.

"Nevertheless, Kelvin-dono, the companions of the Lord are polite to be adventurers. Most of the adventurers cannot use honorifics, but the lords are very right.”

All right, good feeling.
“That is more than I deserve.”

“Kuku you are humble. Seeing your maid's collar, are you a slave? Your walk, gestures, and all of them were well-suited to his behavior to stand up for the Lord. The result of the master's education”

No, the mentality as a maid was worn by Efil on her own. However, at that moment after entering the room, she often saw us. This girl lives up to the name of the King.

"When it comes to your Lord Serra, it's like you're dealing with an aristocrat.　Lord Gerard looks like a knight… Searching the adventurer's past is taboo. But the lords are new heroes that have defeated the black wind. ”

“Thank you for your consideration”

"Okay, now, Toya and his friends I hear they are Delamis heroes. It seems you had helped Lord Kelvin in the black-wind hideout. Quick decision and action after being asked by Mist-dono, there were”

“No, we do nothing–”

"Yes, the hero sama helped me in a dangerous place."

"Well, hey, Kelvin-san?"

It's okay, you should be praised obediently. If you want to defeat the devil that will emerge, the connection with each country is important. I took a lot of trouble with this.

“Umumu. Both are truly great! … and this is hard to say.”

The young king made the troubled face for the first time.

“Originally, I would like to express my congratulations on this matter, but as Trisen is complaining, it will not be disclosed immediately. But the beloved people of my country has been saved. I want to return this grace in some way. Is there anything you want? ”

The King looks at Touya's and my face. (TN: I don't know if I should translate King as Queen because is a girl, but the word used is King.)

“… We don't need anything. This black wind subjugation, Kelvin-san said ah… But we don't contribute anything. Kelvin-san should receive the reward.”

“… Touysan said, but Kelvin-san, is that all right?”

Well, if Touya says that.

"Okay, then … I hear that there is a very delicious grain in the country of Trage. However, people from other countries can't buy it. I would like to have the right to purchase here, how is it?”

"Is it okay with such a thing? Isn't it okay for status, honor, or money? Any of the categories that can be achieved with the power of the Samurai can be obtained, but is it okay?"

"We are adventurers who like freedom. Even if you have a position higher than you, it will only become a shackle. Then, if you eat something delicious, you will be happy."

Gerard and Sara whisper and Efil smiles.

"Ku, Kukuhaha… Kuhahahaha! The Lord and everyone are interesting guys! Unlike the heroes of Trisen, I thought that I could apply to greed… Don't ask for the right to buy, I give to Kelvin dono a bale, send me a letter when it's gone, and I'll give you it again for free.”

“The king is mean, too. Am I been tried?”

"No, no, I wasn't angry. Even if you chose gold or status, I wouldn't look down and would reward you, but I just liked the Lord."

King Trage is in a good mood because she laughs. Somehow the negotiation seems successful.

"Touydono seems to be as good as the rumor. He's stupidly honest and is straight to the point. But people like that will die prematurely."

“……Yes.”

Touya tight his fist.

“I'm not so pessimistic. People are learning creatures, it's just a matter of continuing to experience and letting Touya dono to make use of it. Setsuna dono and the other will support you, don't you?"

“We'll keep in mind”

“Yeah. Well, let's set up a little celebration today.”

When King Trage slams her little hand, several maids carry food from the side.

"Wow, there are also sashimi, rice, and hot pot! Great, all Japanese food!"

“It looks like they use different ingredients, but it's Japanese food …”

“I heard that the birthplace of the hero is Japan as well as Toraji Fujihara, the ancestor of the country. Toraji left various cultural legacies in this world. I hope you'll remember that even for a bit. Kelvin dono, please taste the rice in our country first.”

“Fufu, I will do so.”

The taste of the rice I eat for the first time in a while is nostalgic, and it was very delicious.
