Chapter 133 - It‘s Fighting Spirit


With Esbert‘s guidance, we were able to reach the King‘s chamber.

Soldiers, who seemed to be escorts, were laid on the floor, unconscious.

It probably was Ellen‘s doing.

 

One could hear yells and screams coming from inside.

 

„Eh, Ellen!? Why did you come back!?“

„How long do you intend to sleep, father! That’s why your illness isn’t healing! It‘s because you feel sick! If you feel strong, then you can overcome any illness!“

„Don‘t put me together with monsーーpeople like you!“

„Saying such weak words is no good! Now, I shall train you without sleep or rest from this point on!“

„Hiiiiiiih! I‘ll die! I‘ll really die!“

„Fighting spirit! Fighting spirit! Fighting spiriiiiit!“

 

Are you Ani**l Hamag**hi? (Tn: Animal Hamaguchi. a former pro wrestler who was now a trainer)

 

Once we went inside, we saw the King about to be stripped naked by Ellen.

 

„Ooh, that Sir over there certainly is Karuna-dono!?  Please stop Ellen!?“

 

Noticing me, the King asked for my help.

He was stripped of his pants so he didn’t hold any dignity whatsoever.

 

It can’t be helped.

I took off Ellen’s clothes.

 

“For what reason do I have to be naked?!”

“Weren’t you playing that kind of game?”

“I’m just trying to get my father to change into training clothes!?”

 

Anyway, I was able to stop Ellen’s barbarism and the king fled back to his bed.

 

“Uuh……Even though I wrote her to absolutely never come back again……”

 

One could hear him cry in such a voice.

That’s why it would have been better if you didn’t send a letter in the first place.

 

Then a woman wearing luxurious clothes entered the room.

 

“Oh my. Ellen, you came home?”

“Mother, long time no see”

 

Apparently, she’s Ellen’s mother.

In other words, the Queen, huh.

 

According to Appraisal, her actual age was 42.

As was to expect, Ellen’s mother was a beauty.

It seems like she inherited her red hair from her mother.

 

However, she was a woman who had a calm air around her.

 


“…….Deear……I’ll, be killed by our daughter……”

“My, Ellen, you shouldn’t bully your father”

“I wasn’t bullying him! I was injecting my fighting spirit into him!”

 

Ellen, who claimed as such, might really end up killing the king so we dragged her out of the room.

 

“…….Ho, however, he looks more energetic than expected, right?”

 

Thira, whose corner of her mouth was twitching as she saw the King in his underwear, pointed out as such as she regained her consciousness again.

 

The one who answered that was the first prince, Esbert.

 

“Yes. However, it seems like he suffers from unbearable pain at irregular times. At these times, he can’t even hold a proper conversation. So far, we let several healers look at him, but it’s still unknown what kind of illness that is……”

 

I see.

Well, one can’t cure that with healing magic after all.

 

“Erm……Actually, I’d like to talk with something with you, Karuna-san”

“With me?”

 

Esbert suddenly started to talk nervously and I just tilted my head.

 

“I don’t really mind”

“Thank you. …….Erm, it’s not really something I can talk about in this place, so if you don’t mind, would you come with me to my room? Ah, I wouldn’t mind the others coming as well ……Big sister as well”

 

It seems like he was a bit hesitant about Ellen.

 

So, with his guidance, we proceeded through the corridors of the royal palace.


Then we once again encountered a woman dressed like part of the royal family.

 

“……What did that muscle brained woman come back for, I wonder”

 

That woman who glared at Ellen seemed to be about 20 years old.

She was much shorter than the tall Ellen and seemed to be quite delicate.


 

“Older sister……”

 

Appraisal reveals that she seems to be Ellen’s older sister, the second princess.

Her name is Ishrina.

However, her hair color was different from Ellen and Esbert.

 

As if Esbert guessed my thoughts, he said, “……Unlike me and Ellen, big sister Ishrina’s mother is the first queen. The first queen died after big sister was born……”

 

Esbert explained this to me in a small voice.

 

“Isn’t that obvious? I came to see father”

“That’s just a front, isn’t it? You’re really just aiming for the throne, aren’t you? However I have to disappoint you. Sorry, but father would never let you inherit the throne. If he did such a thing the kingdom would fall in just a single week after all.”

“I don’t intend to do such a thing. I’ve decided to live by the sword!”

“……Hmmm, is that right?”

 

It seems like the relationship between these sisters wasn’t that good.

As they were born from different mothers it probably can’t be helped.

 

By the way, the first princess who shares the same mother as Ellen and Esbert was already married off to another country and doesn’t seem to be in this country.

 

“Still, older sister still looks like a bean sprout as always, with a sickly pale face and if I had to put it badly you sometimes look even sicker than father. I’m sure you leave everything, be it changing your clothes, the food or washing up, to the maids. You should at least do th minimal things yourself”

“Be silent. I don’t want to be a muscle idiot like you. I’m an orthodox princess unlike you.”

 

Their personalities also seem to be direct opposites.

 

“Erm, big sisters……Our guests are also there so could you not fight that much……”

 

Esbert interrupted the sisters who were glaring at each other by trying to mediate.

 

“……Hmpf. In consideration of the first prince, I shall forgive my rude sister’s conduct today”

 

After snorting loudly, the second princess left.

Then we moved to Esbert’s room.

 

“I’m sorry, I showed you something unsightly……”

“Must be tough. All your big sisters are so troublesome”

“Yes……”

 

Ellen raised her voice.

 

“Did you perhaps include me in that ?!”

 

It would rather impossible to think that you’d be excluded from that,

 

“So, what did you want to talk to me about?”

“Ye, yes……Actually, I have another big problem besides my father’s illness……”

“Is that problem maybe related to the throne succession?”

“……That’s right. The palace is split into two factions……”

 

In other words, after the king dies, there might be a conflict whether the first prince or the second princess should inherit the throne.


It’s a common story.

 

“In theory, the throne should be inherited by a man, but because I’m still ten years and a child of the second queen, there’s strong opposition against this”

 

I see.

On the other hand, we have a woman, but she’s the child of the first queen.

There’s also no problem with her age.

 

If the King lived for about five more years, then the first prince would have held the absolute advantage.

 

“So, what does that have to do with me?”

“……Uhm, I was told about how you rebuild the Rain Kingdom”

 

Now that I think about it, there was something like this, huh?

Apparently, he was acquainted with the Rain Empire’s trap emperor, Gina, and he heard several things from him.

 

“I’d be very happy if you could give me some advice in this matter…… I’m sorry, to ask this of you in addition to you taking care of big sister Ellen……”

“I kind of feel like I’m treated like some wild beast”

 

……Hmm.

Throne succession problems are always pretty troublesome because various interests are often involved in the background……But this cast doesn’t seem to be that difficult.

 

“In short, all we have to do is cure the King, right?”

“Eh? You can cure him?”
