Audience

“……Is it fine to wear such extravagant clothes?”

“It’s no problem. Everything that has been prepared in this room all belongs to Holy Maiden-sama. If there’s anything that is insufficient, it will be prepared immediately”

The sister who dresses me in incredibly extravagant looking clothes. If I’m not wrong, her name is Mehdia-san. She seems to be the one in charge of taking care of my needs.

About her mid-20s, tawny hair with a single braid at the back, above all else the rather large b.r.e.a.s.t.s which is her trait.

Just now as well, during the ‘bath’, which is entering the hot water and washing the body that is something only a n.o.ble can do, it knocked on to me several times. Even though I should be quite well endowed despite my age, looking at mine after looking at that makes mine look meagre.

“It is fine with this. Please do not worry too much about your speech. Occasionally, there are adventurers and the likes who come to have an audience but, there are also people among them who do not use honorific¹ so. Regarding the actions, it will be fine if you just follow suit the Cardinal who enters before you”

“Understood. I’ll somehow try my best”

Uuu, I’m extremely nervous. Even though I never even had an audience with the Feudal Lord, to think that, I’ll be meeting the King of the largest country in this world. I wonder if it’s Hardt would he just collapse out of nervousness.

Fufuu, I can easily imagine that. But, I have to make sure I don’t laugh too much.

“Holy Maiden-sama. It is time so, let us go.”

“Understood”

Fuu, I calmed down slightly after remembering Hardt’s face. I don’t know where he has gone now but, I want to meet and apologise to him……even though Hardt will probably not forgive someone like me. Even so……I want to convey it even if it’s only this feeling.

“Ooo! My my, what beauty!”

I was thinking about Hardt when, I heard a loud voice. I was slightly surprised so I raise my head that was looking down and, in front of me stood Cardinal Malint with his arms spread out exaggeratedly. Behind him is Arnaud-san and, Lig who has changed into formal wear.

“Good gracious, I’ve heard that the generations of Holy Maiden-sama have always been beautiful but, this generation of Holy Maiden-sama also doesn’t lose nor pale to the legend!”

“Ha, haha, thank you”

Cardinal Malint who’s complimenting me, gives orders to the knights and sisters around as is. And when the preparations are done, we began walking.

Lig tried talking to me but, Arnaud-san became like a wall and he couldn’t get close. Well, it’s Lig’s fault this time.

Judging from the atmosphere of the surroundings, it’s as plain as daylight that it’s not the atmosphere that’s fine to talk. In reality, not even Arnaud-san has spoken a word since we met.

“Now, this is the room for the audience. It’ll be fine if you follow behind me and mimic me”

I nod to Cardinal Malint’s words. I take several deep breaths to ease my nervousness. I have to be careful not to be disrespectful.

Cardinal Malint gives his orders again and, the door opens. I follow after Cardinal Malint who enters dignifiedly. The audience s.p.a.ce was a masterpiece.

The chandelier that’s made by gla.s.swork shines on the roof as though it’s a starry sky, the soft carpet that feels as though the feet are sinking into it stretches to the throne.

With a large number of about 20 people lining up on each left and right side. I think these people are probably the leaders of the Holy Kingdom. And at the furthest in is, a man sitting down dignifiedly on the throne.

A man in his 50s with golden hair. I wondar if this person is the Holy King, we are walkking in order to move towards the Holy King but, the gazes from the surroundings become sharp². Uuー, I’m nervous!

When I somehow control myself from becoming fidgety, Cardinal Malint got on one knee and lower his head on the spot. We also imitate that and got on one knee and lower our head.

“Holy King-sama, I’ve brought the Holy Maiden-sama”

“Umu, good work, Cardinal Malint. Arnaud as well, good work on your long trip”

“Your kind words are wasted on me”

Cardinal Malint and Arnaud-san who lowers their head deeply. Then, he looks at me next.

“Are you the Holy Maiden?”

“Yes, my name is Stella. Nice to meet you”

“Umu, I’ll probably also be borrowing your powers. It’s fine to give your orders with restraint. I welcome you as family”

To those words, the leaders around went ‘Ooo’, and raise cheers. After that, it was all just formal talk so I honestly also thought ‘Aren’t we unneeded here’, somehow the audience was able to end without any trouble.

It was quicker than I thought but, it seems we were there for close to 2 hours. I was so nervous that I didn’t know the time. But, I’m glad it was able to end without any trouble.

“Good work, Holy Maiden-sama. Please relax for today. If there are any needs, please order Mehdia who’s attached to Holy Maiden-sama. The schedule tomorrow will include the meeting about the unveiling and, a welcome party with the leaders of our country gathered. I think it’ll be busy but, please kindly go along with it”

I who have left the audience s.p.a.ce, was led by Cardinal Malint and returned to the previous room. Seeing the tired me, he expressed words of grat.i.tude.

Speaking of which, I separated with Lig at the audience s.p.a.ce. He seemingly wants to say something but, without any leisure for talking, we separated as it is.

After the Cardinal left, I’m in the room by myself. I’m exhausted for various reasons but, for the time being, I’m able to arrive in the Holy Kingdom.

The new life, along with the numerous people. There are tons of things I have to get used to but, I have to do my best.
