The Heroine Who Was Taken Away by the Main Character Becomes Obsessed With Me After Returning - Chapter 104
104. Postprocessing. (1)
It was about half a day later that the Mystic Pirate’s ship arrived in Blueton.
WomanI’ve been through quite a lot.
I arrived on land with a tired face, holding a little hope and a heavy atmosphere.
Poo–
“It’s Mystic Pirate!”
“…… You have already arrived!”
At the approaching Mystic Pirate’s ship, revealing its presence from afar, passers-by in blue tones cheered.
A voice loud enough to be heard even from the boat.
“Vice-captain… ….”
“Keep your expression. It is still an extension of our work.”
What Mystic Pirate was in charge of was a simple escort of objects.
No one would have expected that ‘something like that’ would be attached to the process.
The royal family must have thought it was a successful request.
The ‘sea’ was not an easy place to think of.
Mystic Pirates are brave mercenaries of the sea, and specialists who are unparalleled in their field.
That’s probably why the news of Triumph’s return was announced to ordinary people in advance.
It is a kind of making.
A keepsake of a prince who died abroad, and a treasured treasure of the Principality of Briseyton.
The treasure did not go through the hands of the ‘Empire’, but returned to the Duchy only with the power of Briseyton’s ‘Mystic Pirate’.
Should I call it such a kind of symbolic achievement?
The artifact called Triumph was also a kind of pride of the Duchy of Briseyton.
…… Perhaps, if such a request was stolen or disappeared in the middle, a catastrophe would have occurred?
“Confirmation complete. All figures normal. …… Genuine is right. Welcome. Mystic Pirates.”
Verification of authenticity by Triumph.
The court mage of Briseyton, who just finished it, bowed her head.
If it was original, I should have felt comfortable after hearing that story.
‘The real thing is right…… La. It would have been unfair if the goods brought after such hardships were imitations. This is a problem as it is.’
It was clear that Raneia wasn’t just worrying for nothing.
Bringing the royal treasure, ‘Triumph’, was a success.
For the people of the Duchy of Briseton, the Mystic Pirate has become a kind of benefactor.
After authenticity appraisal.
The eyes of the gathered passers-by turned to the boat they landed on.
Mystic Pirate’s ship that retrieved the Triumph and crossed the sea and arrived at Briseyton.
“Wow. What kind of battle was there, something like that…….”
“There must have been a bloody struggle with the monsters in the sea.”
Listening to the whispers of passers-by, Raneia laughed.
She felt a bit resentful that her ears were needlessly good at times like this.
It’s a bloody battle……. Well.
I’m not saying it’s completely wrong.
It wasn’t the Mystic Pirates who fought bloody battles this voyage.
It was rather embarrassing.
I couldn’t do anything, and instead only received help.
Because it was the first time I felt so helpless on the sea.
Whoa.
After controlling her emotions for a while, Raneia asked with a smile.
“By the way. We need people to repair the ship. As you can see, it doesn’t look very good.”
“Ah, yes. Has confirmed. The cost of repairing the ship will be covered by the royal family.”
A court mage who nodded her head in agreement when I said that.
The court mage, who rolled her eyes for a while, asked in a small voice.
“I…… By the way, maybe. What happened to you Is it okay if I ask?”
What happened?
Surely, something happened that would surprise everyone here.
A monster named ‘Catastrophe’.
A disaster that can claim thousands or tens of thousands of lives just by its existence.
God of demons and achievement of all mankind,
Such a disaster has been revived. Raid the Mystic Pirate’s ship. It was a story that I managed to get rid of it——.
Meeting a disaster is incomparable to just sailing the sea.
It was right that a place called the sea was treated as a den of monsters that humans couldn’t reach.
However, even that would be nothing compared to the ‘disaster’ that had slaughtered countless humans during the thousand years the empire was established.
It was also surprising that the world was turned upside down that such a catastrophe was dealt with without even a single victim.
But…….
“There was an attack by a giant kraken. It’s such a gigantic Kraken that even the vice-captain of the Mystic Pirates, who has been on the ship for decades, has never dared to see it.”
I couldn’t say it straight away. Because ‘he’ asked for it.
I wonder if the story of the giant Kraken was enough. The court mage opened her eyes wide.
“…… ! That!”
“He got away before I could do it, but he looks tired.”
“Oops. This sorcerer caught it in oblivion of Fatigue. Sorry. I’ll guide you to the lodging you’ve reserved. First of all, I will take Triumph—”
A court mage who wants to retrieve Triumph without much meaning.
Wheek.
Raneia, who lightly avoided her hand, bowed her head as if to ask her not to be too offended.
“When can I see His Majesty the Prince? Do you have anything to say after delivering it yourself?”
This is ‘his’ request.
It was an attitude that could have come off as arrogant, and it was a tone that could cut off all the favorable feelings he had raised.
“…… ! You’re saying that Triumph’s escort mission isn’t over even after arriving on land! I was shallow! As expected, you seem to have higher pride than most knights!”
By the way.
…… Should I be grateful for coming out like that?

After Lu was sealed, the solid barrier she spread soon collapsed.
Although she did not have the will to break the barrier to the regenerating disaster, it was a barrier that was strong enough to keep the disaster bound.
The reason why the shield was maintained was because Lu existed, so it was only natural.
“Mr. Cale. Are you okay? Disaster, no. That person——”
With the disaster, the barrier disappears as well.
Raneia, who was approaching me while examining her mood, looked at Lu in my arms, and she froze.
A roux that stretched without even moving.
The beating that any living being should have.
Because the heartbeat didn’t exist in Lu, who stopped while time was stuffed.
“No way, Mage…… Uh?”
Knowing that Lucia was dead, her expression hardened, but later, when she ran into ‘Sia’ standing behind me, Raneia put on a puzzled expression.
Lou and Sia.
There are some differences, but it’s not so big that you wouldn’t recognize them as the same person, so it’s natural.
But there were too many difficulties to explain them all.
I kept my mouth shut for a moment before I spoke.
“…… Please keep quiet about what happened today. During the voyage, the Mystic Pirate’s ship was attacked by a Kraken. Before we deal with it, the Kraken escaped.”
“Yes?”
Why should I do that? Raneia tilted her head.
Well, from her point of view, she probably wouldn’t understand.
Although she has become accustomed to human society, she is a siren. She is essentially a different race from humans.
I don’t think it would make sense to try to hide it after setting up a splendid achievement.
Well, this can’t be helped either.
“Catastrophe. Also, a ‘regenerating disaster’ appeared, and it was only possible to defeat it with the help of Mystic Pirate and those who happened to be on the ship. How many of you can believe that story?”
Even.
Among the facts learned in the process, if you add the story that Triumph became a trigger that could revive the ‘disaster’.
Even if it is true, few people will believe it.
Especially if it is the Triumph, a ‘national treasure’ that the people of Briseton revere.
“That… ….”
“Well, there is a reason for that. From my experience, when a ‘disaster’ appeared, talking about it in the neighborhood didn’t help much.”
If a disaster appears, what will be the primary countermeasure?
From noble mtl dot com
The answer was simply ‘run away’.
It is not a big problem if ordinary people in the face of a disaster run away.
Because it’s a very natural thing.
However, what if the ‘soldier’ who should risk his life to prevent disaster runs away? Beyond that, what if the entire ‘nation’ is only frantic about running away?
The sword master gun that reached the height of swordsmanship.
Whether it’s high-circle archmages who have honed the limits of magic.
In front of the horror called disaster…… Humans are very equal.
It was a ‘disaster’ to simply kill countless people.
I don’t know if there is any benefit to this side by revealing such a story.
In order to cause such chaos, it would be better not to reveal it at all.
“If that happens, the only thing left to do is bury the problem… ….”
If you don’t know the dangers of work, isn’t that a problem?
I answered Raneia’s question.
“Instead, ask for an opportunity to have an audience with His Majesty the Prince.”
The Prince.
One of the nobility who was granted the status of ‘Duke’ by the Empire.
In other words, the head of the Duchy of Briseyton.
Originally, he wouldn’t be someone you could meet just because you wanted to.
Because I have a Triumph in my hand. There will be at least one chance
“After that, I will take care of it.”
I will resolve it as peacefully as possible.
I laughed harmlessly as I said that. For some reason, Raneia looked a little distrustful.

The palace where the king resides.
In the middle of such a royal palace. The master of this country stood.
It’s nothing compared to an empire that travels all over the world. It is clearly the second most powerful country after the Empire.
Duke of Briseyton.
You should be polite to the king.
Even if they are nobles of the empire, there is no one who can openly ignore the royal family in the royal palace of the duchy.
It’s a very basic and obvious story.
The red-haired man’s back was straight and he didn’t know how to bend it.
If that was the only thing, I could have thought it absurd and moved on.
I could have gotten over it somehow, but…….
The eyes of those gathered here were fixed on ‘something’ that repeatedly bounced up and down in the sky like a toy ball in his hand.
Every time it flies through the sky, the eyes around it gradually become more threatening.
It’s not too cold, so the atmosphere cools down.
Even Raneia, who had accepted anything with a resolute attitude, couldn’t stop it, and her expression was shocked.
The secret of the Duchy of Briseyton.
The symbol of the royal family, and a precious treasure incomparable to anything else.
The thing that floated up and down in his hand was the Triumph.
The red-haired man, who repeatedly tossed and caught Triumph in the palm of his hand, grabbed his chin as if he had finally made up his mind.
Then he said.
“Hmm. It seems that the nobles over there don’t deserve to have a Triumph.”
…… Since I didn’t draw the sword.
It was peaceful.
