After an audience with the King, I was invited to a tea party with the Queen .

I was taken to the room where the Queen is in the inner part of the palace, where the private space of the royal family located .

The Queen and a maid were waiting in a room with a cozy and relaxed atmosphere arranged for the tea party

Yumiela-san, thank you for coming .

I was hoping for his Majesty to join us, alas, he was busy with work .

The Queen had this youthful and calm air around her .

My name is Yumiela Dolknes . I feel honored for the invitation .

This is an informal occasion, so you dont have to be so formal about it .

Said the Queen as she smiled softly and wink at the maid . The maid was leaving the room after she finished brewing black tea for me .

The conversation in this room wouldnt leave the room . I wont share it with anyone .

What? I can smell the trouble already . Please, I want to go home .

Fufu, you know you dont need to worry, right? His Majesty and I, both of us like you?

Your response to the audience was praiseworthy . I was relieved that someone with a good head on your shoulder like you got strong power .

Th-thank you for the compliment?

Im surprised at the unexpected high opinion .

s

Yumiela-san think its troublesome to have power, right? And you seem like a sharp young lady .

Im afraid to imagine that you are an ambitious person with an empty head .

Ano, why her Majesty trust me so much?

There are many nobles who approach the royal family by pretending they have no desire .

You dont think youre not involved with the royal family, do you? Im afraid I cant trust that kind of person .

She was silent . She couldnt tell her that she doesnt want to be involved with the royal family in front of her, right? And the Queen continued .

Lets get down to business .

This information is only known to the royal family and some of the nobles, but the demon king will come back in 2 years .

What the Queen said surprised me .

Its not about the demon kings resurrection that surprises me, but how accurate that prediction is .

In the game, when the heroine became a third-year student, the demon king was resurrected without notice .

The royal family may have information about the demon king that wasnt revealed in the game .

The demon king?

Yes, I want your cooperation in defeating the demon king .

When the army in charge of suppressing the demon kings monster army, we need a small team to defeat the demon king .

I understand . Since the kingdom was in danger, Ill cooperate .

s

I replied immediately, also in case of emergency, I was planning to defeat the demon king myself .

Thank you, Yumiela-san .

I feel bad for asking you to risk your own life like this

And its bad for the kingdom if you are the one who defeats the demon king .

Its bad for the kingdom if I defeat the demon king? I tried to think about what she means by that, and I remember something .

Is it about the kings legitimacy?

The Kingdom of Balshine, created by the hero and saintess who sealed the demon king, it said that the royal family is their descendants .

Thats the reason why the king ruled this kingdom .

But if someone not related to the royal family defeats the demon king, that theory will fall apart .

Yumiela-san catch on quickly, its like that .

The heros descendant is only a formal reason; the kings cause is important .

The Queen says, astonished .

I noticed the prince had been involved in the demon kings in the game, how sneaky of them .

Edwin will be on his way to subdue the demon king .

I would be happy if Yumiela-san could join as a saintess

But if they announce me as the saintess, thats mean I will marry Prince Edwin . And I dont want that to happen because it sucks .

Alicia, who uses light magic, is more suitable for the saintess position .

And she seemed to get along well with his Highness Edwin at the school .

Lets sacrifice the heroine .

Are you refusing it? If you didnt like it, you could frankly say it .

Ah, if you dont like Edwin, how about marrying Morris?

Im not trying to be ungrateful, but I will refuse .

When the first prince was recommended, I immediately refused . Well, the Queen was the one who said that I must be frank if I dont like it .

Fufufu, I wont force you if you dont like it . I dont want you to run away to the rivals country .

All things considered, I will tell both of my sons .

Perhaps because I refused the marriage proposal with the princes so firmly, the Queen burst into laughter .

After her laughter subsides, she changed the subject, and her expression turns serious .

We will discuss the demon king in detail later .

Right now, the problem is the nobles who want to bring Yumiela-san into their faction .

Since the information about your level has been circulated, tomorrow, they will begin to try to win you over .

Its not a problem to join the King or the Queens faction, isnt it?

My and His Majesty factions are the main, but faction is not monolithic . The struggle for Yumiela-san will start inside the main faction .

While the main faction is moderate, there are a few problems . Yumiela-san seems to be able to get around very well .

The Queen continued to lecture me on the nobles faction .

You should be careful with the radical faction led by Duke Hillrose .

Stay away from aggressive war proposals against other countries .

And please watch out for contact with intelligence agents from other countries . If they make an attractive proposal, I assure you his Majesty will offer more .

After hearing that gracious offer, I realize that I have become a human strategic weapon .

When I realize that I dont know anything about the House of Dolknes faction, I asked her Majesty a question . She took her time to replied .

House of Dolknes that said pseudo-central nobles are part of the radical faction .

s

It was a coincidence since the Duke wanted to make the faction a little bigger, and they wanted to join the central faction .

House of Dolknes is part of the radical faction, and my family was probably under the influence of Duke Hillrose .

What would you do if they said youre going to be adopted or became someone from Duke Hillrose familys fiance?

Sent House of Dolknes a royal order not to transfer Yumiela-sans register elsewhere .

The other nobles will criticize this, but this gave you enough deadlines until the academy graduation .

Thats enough time, your Majesty .

Lets do something about my relationship with my parents before I graduate .

Yumiela-san, what do you think of your parents?

Just when Im worried and thinking about my relationship with my parents, her Majesty asked me about it .

As far as I remember, Ive never met them before, so I cant say anything .

They dont seem to be good people . If I can cut off our relationship, I will .

Ah, no wonder, I didnt think Ive ever met my parents . Hearing what I said, the Queen takes a deep breath and looks sad .

Is that so if its okay with you, I can adopt no, Yumiela-san will refuse, wont you?

But, you can think of me as a mother . Please come and play whenever you want .

Even if you said that Im the one that feels bothered since my mental age was over 30 .

Once again, I feel grateful . I appreciate the thought .

After that, I talked about my life in Dolknes territory .

As my story continues, for some reason, the Queen looks sad, and when it reached the fun part of leveling up (dungeon edition), the tears spill .

I will send one of his Majestys subordinate to the academy . If you have any trouble, please tell him .

Somehow I was under the Queens protection, and I left the palace with a large amount of sweets .
