Chapter 144
After finishing the first stage of the water golem crafting, I took the completed golem around the garden .
「I’ll have to set it to patrol along this route and…」
Since from now on it would be acting as a watering can for the garden as well, I would have to clearly set where it goes . For that purpose I was taking it around with me, but…
「Ah, G-good Morning Daichi-dono!」
Dianeia suddenly appeared a short distance away in the forest .
「Good Morning . What brought you here at this hour?」
「Actually I need Hesty-dono for something……… . is she here?」
「She is but… . 」
I glanced back at her cabin . Since the previous evening she had cooped herself up in there saying,
『I got a good, magic stone in that dungeon before, so I’ll attach it to, your wand as a just in case, spare . 』
and took my wand with her .
I was thankful, but she hadn’t left her cabin even once since then .
「It looks like she’s focusing pretty hard so I don’t want to disturb her . 」
「I see… . Do you have any idea of when she might be finished?」
「Nope . How long does making a wand generally take?」
「Ah, normally a craftsman would take one to two months . 」
「Really?」
Hesty usually finished in about 2 to three days .
How fast was she working?
「Even for the fastest craftsman it would take a week, but Hesty-dono finished it in three days…… . the people with you are all blessed with amazing abilities……… . 」
「Well, they’re not amazing because they’re with me though…」
It was purely how great Hesty was, it had nothing to do with me .
「n………!」
Hesty opened the door and tottered out .
「Oh, good work Hesty . 」
「I’m ok . I still have, some stamina left . I just need to rest, in the onsen, and sleep, and I’ll be fine . The spare is mostly, finished too . I’ll give it to you later, ok?」
「Yeah, thank you…… . . and Dianeia, Hesty’s come out but she looks quite tired . Do you think that your business will finish quickly?」
I asked and Dianeia took a moment before nodding .
「Y-yeah, it should finish quickly . It’s just an acquaintance of her’s came to visit . Is that alright Hesty-dono?」
「n? what?」
「Honestly, the Dragon King of the Lake arrived at my castle a while ago——」
She said but at that moment…
「Whaaa, wh-what is this place!? There’s so much magic power around here what happened!?」
A girl with blue haired leapt out of a puddle of water on the forest floor .
「Un? What is this girl?」
The puddle was clearly not deep enough to conceal a person .
Where did she even come from I wondered as I look to Hesty and Dianeia but…
「Ma-Manaril-dono? Wh-why are you here?」
「Mana? So you’ve already arrived here . 」
It seems the girls new this new person .
「Ah, Hesty and Dianeia too! What are you doing in this amazing place?」
The blue haired girl asked them .
「W-well, there are various circumstances . But why are you here Mana-dono?」
「I wanted to get a look at the surroundings before my live, and followed an underground stream, but I felt an abnormally huge magic power and came up here to see . 」
Then this girl…apparently named Manaril, finally looked at me . And,
「Umm, from the feel of the magic…you should be this place’s Master? I’m sorry to intrude like this . 」
「No, it’s alright . Umm, who are you?」
「Ah, I should name myself . I am Manaril Seiren . I am the Singing Shrine Maiden of the Shrine Beneath the Lake, and the Dragon King of the Lake . Nice to meet you . 」
Manaril said and gave a bow .
I see, so this girl was a Dragon King too .
I wondered why she was here, but at that moment I heard someone running through the forest .
「I-I’m sorry~ Daichi-san~ Dianeia-san~ . Mana was too fast and I couldn’t catch her . Just because she’s the Dragon King of the lake…why can she assimilate with water, it’s foul play~」
It was Ramiyuros . She was running over .
…… . it looks like today would be another day full of guests .
Three of them had already gathered here .
Since they were all Dragon Kings maybe an impromptu Second Dragon King Council would break out .
Well, whatever .
「Well we can’t just stand around here . I’ve got some chairs so let’s take a seat . Then let me hear what’s going on . Especially Dianeia, you seem to know what’s happening so I’ll have you explain . 」
「O-ok, I got it . 」
And so my garden became the place for another meeting between the Princess and the Dragon Kings .
