Chapter 546 – [God Is Watching!]
The fact that Luminus showed reckless hostility was not simply saying that beastmen had strong animal characteristics and showed a dog-catlike relationship.
Not instinctive hostility, but firm hostility. That’s why it’s different
“What’s wrong, Ruminus?”
“……The first head of our ancestors, who was a beastman, was the one who moved to the empire after being pushed out of the survival competition with the cat beastman.”
“Ah, so…”
It can’t be helped. Relations are hard to get rid of easily. No matter how long ago it was, the feelings continue to come down.
The only thing that can break that chain is that someday someone with a lot of hate will come out. If you don’t do that, it’s a cause and effect that you can’t quit.
“Still, it’s my birthday, so please bear with it.”
“…….Ah, sorry, Your Highness. I was excited. I’ll be patient.”
Like a dog scolded by its owner, Luminus whimpered and withdrew. Ah, it’s cute because it looks like a dog… No, it’s not an insult, it’s cute like a dog.
Anyway, it’s understandable considering that it’s not just blood relative characteristics, there were issues like that in the past. First of all, I left a few words to the nobles and guests who were enjoying the party in earnest.
“Thank you so much for taking the time to celebrate my birthday like this today. I don’t have much prepared, but I hope you like it.”
Greet lightly and say hello. It’s impeccable etiquette, at least I think.
Eventually, the next person to meet is the highest person in this place, the emperor.
“Happy 8th Birthday”
“If it’s sincere, I’ll have to accept it, but if it’s just coming out to make friends, I don’t think I’ll accept it.”
“That……”
“Do you think there is any sincerity in the subject of leaving one’s humanity beyond unconsciousness?
Luckily, I didn’t lose my humanity. He could get it at any time, but he was refusing it.
However, the life and end of those who have abandoned their humanity will not be very good. I know it well because I’ve seen it before.
If he had some humanity left in him and cared about me from the start, I would have treated him like a father too. I told you before, but I’m a murderer, but it’s a hyoja murder!
“I don’t have high expectations from you. It’s better for both of us to live in a mutually supportive relationship.”
“…..That’s right”
“It’s useless even if you show regret now. It’s all because what you did came back.”
Instead of rising to the position of emperor and becoming a perfect emperor, he forsook what was human. And it will come back as his biggest weakness.
What will happen… We’ll have to wait and see.
The next people you meet are your brothers. Of course, this one is closer than the emperor. No, except for the second prince.
He was still looking at me with sad eyes. Those eyes harbored a weak hostility, but he seemed to be consistent in ignoring them, so he didn’t pay attention to anything else.
A guy like that will have an accident later…
“Happy birthday. Oh, I sent you a gift in advance, check it later.”
“I had a hard time choosing because I’m not interested in money or power.”
“Thank you both”
Among the gift list, I roughly checked the gifts given by the prince’s brother and the 1st princess’s sister. The older brother of the crown prince gave them a field where quality grapes grew, and the older sister of the 1st princess gave them a building good enough to open a restaurant.
Originally, this time I was thinking of making a test restaurant for commoners, not nobles. Right now, Third Royal is only for nobles, so it’s a store that makes good money, but it’s hard for commoners to come.
In short, Third Royale is District 1, and Test Restaurant is District 2. I’m trying to create a system where I can build up my skills and rise to the first team.
And even commoners have the right to eat delicious food.
“May I go to the other customers who have business with me? I have a lot to talk about.”
“It must be a matter of the ten continents… In that case, it will ultimately depend on Duke Magnus’ opinion, but at the moment I’m not doing much outside activities.”
“I haven’t heard any news either. Probably only His Majesty knows.”
To be honest, I don’t really care about these things, but since my situation was the situation, I had no choice but to pay attention. That way you can prepare for the future.
When it comes to the continental 10 river in earnest, it becomes difficult to move…
“Well, I’m going to the academy, so it doesn’t matter.”
“You really don’t seem interested in the throne.”
“That’s something you and your sister can do while competing in good faith. I’ll support that person no matter who wins.”
Of course, there won’t be a second prince there, but…
Anyway, I broke up with the two and approached our guests in earnest.
Excluding the Marquis Sukyung of one kingdom for now. I had already met him, so this time I had to meet someone I hadn’t met before.
Ultimately, the options split into two. To the Great Forest of Urca, and to the Garuna Plateau. And the first person I approached was an elf from the Great Forest of Urca.
It’s not visible because of the clothes, but it’s a muscular body. In addition to that, the softly flowing fantasy power…….
Imagination is a supernatural ability close to will. And that will usually comes from a firm and strong spirit.
In other words, a person who has lived longer than a young person, a person who has strong emotions than a genuine person, and a person who has gone through all the hardships of life have a stronger will than a person who lived normally.
Even considering the fact that elves live a long time, their imagination is quite strong. It doesn’t seem like they were raised simply because they were of noble blood.
“Excuse me”
“…….Ah”
Since it is a birthday party, the dishes are basically something light to eat. Light finger foods like canapés, or cool drinks. Of course, even that alone shows my skill and the efforts of our chefs, but it is not a full-fledged one.
Nevertheless, she reacted belatedly as she was savoring the tofu canapés.
“Ah, sorry. The food was delicious for a while…”
“I heard from people I know that elves can eat meat, but each person has a different taste.
While talking, he finishes the tofu canape he was holding. Is it because he has a surprisingly high appetite, or is the tofu delicious? Of course, I personally wish it were both.
I like people who eat well, and it goes without saying that my food is delicious!
And besides, maybe because the seeds here are good, pears are tastier than seeds from the Earth… Ah, that’s not the problem.
She was polite and introduced herself. Although that manner is not human manner, it is not bad to show the elf’s own example. Because it means respect.
“I am Archione, the first daughter of Pleione, the current head of the elves, from the Great Forest of Urca.”
“Worst Pawn Frontier”
What can I say when I saw her up close, she looks just like that. Something like a princess knight that comes out well in a certain genre.
He said something like ‘Kuu, kill me!’ In front of an orc… Hmmm, even if Shion is present, a man’s curiosity tells him to look at that. No, to be honest, if you look hard, Shion’s is harder.
Others say it is to find a material to use as a lubricant for married life, but in my opinion, it’s just a preference.
Perhaps the fortunate thing is that the monsters were eradicated and disappeared a long time ago. It is said that when humans gained imagination, they pushed and swept them away. So, there is no such thing as a monster born from self-fantasy.
Anyway, he looks like a decent person, no, he looks like an elf.
……. I won’t deny that the way he eats well has won my favor. It’s good to eat happily, whether it’s a woman or a man. In that way, it’s called the grandmother’s mind.
“Apart from the guests from the Great Forest of Urca, this is the first time I’ve seen an elf in my 8 years of life. Even though I have little knowledge.”
“No, we’re relatively closed-minded. Unlike beastmen who roam around, we don’t go out very much in the forest. Knowing that, we’ve been sent to academies relatively recently, but…”
“What, were we talking?”
With a slightly raspy voice, another person joined the conversation.
Soo-in, who has a strong exposure, is eating several small finger foods on a plate she got from somewhere. The pouty cat ears on top of her head are cute.
Ah, that’s the only thing I can think of when it comes to cats. But Kar-chan… You’re a traitor.
Anyway, the first thing I noticed about her was her belly button, which I could see from my size.
It’s not long, but it’s a blue-bladed spear that looks deadly enough. The casting technology is also excellent, so it seems that it was not made by humans. Since Garuna Plateau is the center of the continent and is the center of logistics, it may have been obtained there because there is exchange with the dwarves.
In addition, looking at it now, it seems that the structure is not a simple short spear, but can be extended and used as a long spear. He seems to be quite capable…
“Latrida, the younger sister of Astra, the great warrior of the Garuna plains. Are you a candidate for this Continental Ten?”
“…Latri. No matter how much we are not bound by human etiquette, it is the law that we must observe the minimum manners between people.”
I roughly knew Your personality…It was so boring that I wanted to kill it.
No, of course, my personality wasn’t so bad that I would literally kill him for talking casually. Just kidding.
“It’s coming out hot from the grass. Are you going to have a fight and see the liver?”
“Oh, he’s usually hot-headed. Human nobles started pointing fingers at his fellow tribesmen for being rude if he treated them the way they usually do. There are people who aren’t like that sometimes.”
“This side isn’t normal. But there are other guys like me?”
“Once there is an emperor”
“Hmm”
The Emperor is an extremely calculating guy. Because of his self-fantasy [Perfect emperor], He would have thought it better to just accept it than to point out disrespect to Garu, who was like a king, or the sister of the great warrior of the plains.
It’s a little different from the way I just passed. There is a difference between thinking casually and judging gains and losses.
“I was wondering what kind of guy he was just because he said he defeated Duke Magnus, but it’s rather strange that he doesn’t seem to have any feelings on the outside. Is his self-fantasy like that?”
“Well, let’s do that”
“No momentum, no calluses on my hands, my muscles look good for my age, but I’m not fully grown yet, I feel like I’m a living creature and I don’t smell at all.”
For now, I am controlling my momentum through the force field. If you don’t control your strength, it will be a situation where everyone can look into all of your powers and capabilities as the Great Demon King, but that just becomes annoying.
I adjusted it to the level of a normal person’s momentum, and to others, it just makes me look like a person with stern eyes.
“We respect the strong. My brother is the strongest man in the plains of Garuna. Even if you look ordinary on the outside, if you show that strength, I will respect you too.”
“I don’t like to use my strength for no reason. If I have a reason to use it instead, I tend to use it more clearly than others.”
“Ah, I’ve heard about the empress. She was quite direct and passionate, right?”
“They look down on me and talk bullshit. Civilized people don’t split their heads even when they say rude things, so it’s more rude to say that they are more rude than savages.”
Haha! I like that! Mmm, good word!!!”
I know that character well. It’s annoying if you’re hostile, but if you’re friendly, you’re dead. He’s a personality that never betrays you.
But he’s a traitor… I’m glad I won’t say something like that. That’s enough character.
“Anyway, the food is delicious. I prefer meat, so I prefer meat, but the food here is delicious.”
“Ah, come to think of it, they say the quality of meat in Garuna Plain is good?”
“Of course!!! There’s no way the meat of guys who grew up grazing and grazing freely wouldn’t taste good! They’re different from anyone who only eats vegetables!”
“That sounds impossible to ignore.”
No, I suddenly got into a fight?!
There is no limit when it comes to fighting in the hometown of Hagisa. Because we sometimes fight like what is delicious or what is there.
But I didn’t know that elves and beastmen would do that. Then, is this a hometown fight or a race fight?
“Even in the Great Forest of Urca, there are many delicious ingredients. There are fresh fruits as well as mushrooms and fresh vegetables that can only be found in the forest.”
“I can’t even eat meat.”
“That’s your idea”
“I don’t know why the battle between vegetarians and carnivores has suddenly turned here, but for now, both of you should calm down.”
The fact that the different races are not bound by human manners is respect for them and an apology for the history of enslaving them in the past.
Even now, if we confine them within the framework of human etiquette, that too will still be a story that proves that humans are superior to other races.
However, on the contrary, since we are not bound by etiquette, the situation like now may happen, but…
“Well, that’s okay. I came here because I’m interested in you rather than because I’m interested in the Pandemonium delegation. You can check it yourself later.”
After saying that, Latri retreated. To be precise, he ate all the finger food on his plate and went to refill something else.
But what about later? Something strange to say
Anyway, all that’s left is Archione. She belatedly handed me an apology.
“I’m sorry. I showed you something I couldn’t see.”
“Are you on bad terms with the Beasts?”
“It’s not so bad that it’s terribly bad, but it’s a matter of taste… It’s not as bad as a dwarf, but there’s a racial difference.”
Fortunately, it’s good that I don’t have an arrogant personality like an elf.
There are often elves who believe that they are superior as if their noses are going to pierce the sky, but those guys will break their noses directly.
Ignoring others as superior species, isn’t this complete Nazism?
“By the way, what are the ingredients in this canapé? It feels like it’s made from soybeans, but the taste and texture are completely different. It’s especially delicious because it suits my taste buds.”
“Tofu is an ingredient made from soybeans. I have a lot of interest in this, so I make new dishes like this.”
“I thought we would be the best when it comes to vegan-related dishes, but to think that you’re making ingredients like this…”
“Please visit my palace separately later. I will treat you to a meal you will like.”
It’s not work I just want to feed them something purely delicious. Especially things like greens… Once boiled, mixed and eaten in a bite, it’s great!!!!!!
And when it comes to vegetarianism, there is a king at the end of that genre.
Open your mouth! With French fries!!!
I’m going to gain weight, but I mean!!!
Elves are so skinny that only bones remain, so you can gain weight (grandmother mind)!!!!
