Chapter 155
Chapter 155 - Let's Meet Mother
The whereabouts of Tiara's mother, Keiran Elmar, were immediately ascertained . The Elmar family was a distinguished family in Hyvern like the Barnes family, so the presence or absence of the family head's eldest daughter Keiran was immediately confirmed once it was investigated .
And the day after Kazane and the others arrived at the city, Tiara had an appointment to meet her mother .
As for Keiran Elmar herself, she was now perplexed . She still considered her return to her family home with her husband's cheating as the impetus a good thing, but the situation was moving too fast . Her father-in-law the King died due to illness, and she had become the Queen before she knew it . And then a letter arrived from her husband, Audin . In the middle of this situation, her father Maisen informed Keiran of sudden information that made her ask again with a surprised expression .
「My daughter is coming?」
Maisen joyfully nodded after Keiran's surprised expression .
「I was told by General Jiraid . This time your daughter was sent . Perhaps His Majesty the King of Tsuvara wants you to return . 」
Maisen said . It was obvious that he wanted Keiran to return to Tsuvara . It was an extremely happy story for Maisen, who was worried that his daughter might not go back to Tsuvara after she returned home due to her husband's affair . Above all, he would get to see the grandchild he had hardly met before . It made his face soften .
Although Keiran thought it might be the opposite of what her father was thinking . She was thinking that Audin may have sent their daughter to visit with a letter of divorce .
In any case, there was no way she could refuse her daughter's visit, and without meeting she wouldn't understand the reason, so she stood up . Tiara was also Maisen's granddaughter, but the difference in social status was large . For now, Keiran would talk with her daughter alone and report the details to her father afterward . Maisen wanted to meet his granddaughter and grumbled a little, but he couldn't refuse when he was told it would be a conversation as Tsuvara's royalty . Then Keiran went to reunite with her daughter after a long time .
「It has been a while, hasn't it, Tiara . 」
「Yes, it has been a long time, Mother . 」
The drawing room of Maisen's house . Keiran, Tiara, and Mefirus in Tiara's arms were there .
『It's been a while, Keiran . 』
「Eh?」
The unexpected voice made Keiran stare in wonder . That voice was very familiar .
「His, His Majesty the King?」
Her father-in-law and the former king of Tsuvara . Since the funeral service was done promptly, Keiran missed the opportunity to return to the country, but aside from his philandering he was a respected figure . That Mefirus' voice came from the plush toy held in Tiara's arm .
Keiran hadn't heard about Mefirus' Ruby Griffonization . Therefore, she was concerned when she saw that her daughter was carrying around a plush toy at her age, but then she heard a familiar voice coming from what she thought was a stuffed toy .
『Hmm . The current king is your husband . Calling me Father without reservation is fine?』
The stuffed toy spread his arms and said .
「Eh, yes? Are you really His Majest, no, Father?」
Keiran had heard that Mefirus had died of illness, but she hadn't heard about him becoming a stuffed toy . Telling her to not be surprised was impossible .
『Well, there are various circumstances . I was able to survive by changing into this form . Now I'm going along with Tiara for her training . 』
「Training?」
Keiran tilted her head . It was a highly classified problem for the country, so Keiran in Hyvern knew nothing about the concealed battle with Diablo . She didn't know anything beyond the story that was generally circulating .
「Yes, Mother . I have contracted with the Ruby Griffon . 」
Then Tiara began telling the surprised Keiran the details of that and their journey so far .
「That was . . . serious . 」
That reply was the best Keiran could do after hearing Tiara's story, which contained everything starting from her abduction to her arrival in Deer South . The story that Tiara told really felt like a story, and the contents were so exciting that it didn't seem real . Without Mefirus' presence it would be unbelievable . No, it was hard to say that she could believe it even after everything she had heard .
「Even after hearing it, I can't believe you fought against devils and dragons . 」
After Keiran's dumbfounded mutter, Tiara stuck out her tongue and laughed「Ehe . 」
「Even though I said it myself, I kind of think the same thing . 」
『Well, what she has said until now is unmistakably true . 』
Mefirus replied . Keiran looked at Mefirus and said「If Father says so then I guess that must be the case . 」It was truly a dream-like story . Then Keiran turned to Tiara to confirm her purpose for coming here .
「So, that means you don't have a message to me from your father . 」
「Yes . I also mostly haven't contacted him since the journey started . 」
Keiran was relieved by Tiara's words, but then she remembered the letter that arrived a while ago and her face tightened .
「Then, you may not know this . It seems that person has his eye on a new woman he wants to make his wife . 」
Tiara and Mefirus twitched and their shoulders started shaking after those words .
「Not as a mistress but officially . . . something like that was written in the letter I received, but I don't really understand . 」
「A letter?」
Tiara looked at Keiran with a puzzled expression, and Keiran nodded .
「Yes . It said she's young, short, has no chest, and is a woman who might be called a very young child based on her appearance, but isn't that actually a child? It seems that man started suffering from some strange mental illness while I was gone, and I was wondering what I should do . 」
『Well, speaking of illness, maybe it could be called so . 』
Mefirus sighed .
『Is the name of the woman written about in the letter Kazane?』
「Yes, that's right, Father . You know her?」
『She's the leader of the White Party we were talking about before . 』
Naturally, Keiran was bewildered by those words . But Tiara suddenly grasped Keiran's right hand tightly and raised her voice .
「It's all right . I will protect Kazane!」
