16. Auspicious Attitude

Servants and attendants are considered separately, and there is no intention of abandoning Celia as a waste. It just happened in the flow, and the "experiment" I mentioned earlier didn't mean taking advantage of the female prisoner's position to see her naked or wash her body. And just like Morrow, Mani is also someone who had a relationship with me in the past.

I told Celia about this again.

She didn't move her expression at all while I explained to her, who is warm to the core and has warm egg skin. But she seemed to have some understanding.

She said, "I understand the circumstances.

"You shouldn't take this seriously." The distance from me is half a step further than yesterday. Are you attracted to bathing with a woman on death row like that? "I thought, but if you look at his actions objectively, he's pretty perverted." Naked socializing in the tens of minutes after meeting in prison is certainly not normal.

"Rather than that"

Without saying anything to Mani standing behind me, Celia changed the subject.

She said, "You have been given permission to establish a new kingdom."

"Oh, I did. With this, this country will be reborn both in name and reality."

"The name of the Rilden Kingdom will change.

It would be so. In the sense of my previous life, changing the name of a country is a big event. In other countries, the news would be enough to make you feel uneasy, but if you live in your own country, there's no doubt that it's going to be a big fuss. And when something big happens, there is of course a big reason for it.

"Announcing the death of the previous king and the announcement of a new king named me… I think the reason why we are putting more effort into it is to make the people aware that they have become residents of the new kingdom."

"Yes. Not only the royal capital and its surroundings, but also the entire country will be informed. Not a single citizen will be left out... When that is done, it will be the end of the Rilden Kingdom in the truest sense."

The king's lineage had long since died out, but it was only recently that the public learned of the fact that Morrow was using his corpse to run politics. Even if the towns and villages where the news reaches, there are probably many people who have not escaped from the belief that they are still under the rule of the former king.

When their consciousness changed, and they understood that the "primordial witch" was the new ruler of the country, the curtain fell on the true history of the Rilden Kingdom.

And then the next history will begin ─ as a completely new step for the New Kingdom of Idea.

"There is something I would like to ask of Idea-sama as part of the reform of people's consciousness."

"Hmm, what?"

"A little while later, we are planning to hold a new king enthronement ceremony in the square in front of the royal castle.

"In other words, say hello? How?"

"I don't think the audience will be satisfied with just one or two words…if possible, I would like you to talk for a few minutes.

"Wow, troublesome"

"Then I'll tell Morrow about my rejection."

"No wait wait wait.

"I already knew that this political trio, including Morrow and Danbas, put me first, but isn't it too soon to change their minds?" Even if I think about it a little or ask questions without understanding the meaning, they will easily discard the important proposals. Except for the fact that I'm a reincarnated person, I'm an ordinary person, so I'd like you to give me a break.

"I was shy about giving a speech instead of a greeting. Even so, I've taken on the role of the king, so I'll do that much. Or rather, if I run away from something like this, I won't be able to do anything."

"That's true, but... but our ideal is to not have Lady Idea do anything. I will do my best to reign with authority.I intend to spare no effort to do so, but it is not possible to do it right now. Needless to say, if you say that you are unwilling to do so, I will immediately come up with another plan."

"It's an auspicious idea." For someone like me, who can't become a great ruler, I'm very grateful for the spirit of taking the throne, which is only a crown, and making it a reality.

"However, it would be wrong to say that it's okay to be spoiled by it." At the very least, it must have been decided by my own will, so I have to do what I can to be like a king.

"Please tell Morrow that you have accepted. Also, if possible, it would be helpful if you could think about a draft of what I would say.

"I got it"

Celia solemnly thanked me and said goodbye to her. Well, it's like starting work over there, but I'm done. in the morning. In the afternoon, there should be something I have to listen to or decide again, so I'm taking a break until then.

This situation will continue until the new kingdom is stabilized, but it goes without saying that it's Celia and the others, not me, who are having a hard time. I'm a little tired of being in an unfamiliar situation, but I'm basically enjoying it. Sora's working style is terrifying, so I'm sending Kuroba as a gift, but if I say that it's going to decrease in a blink of an eye.

"It's kind of like black employees who are doing their best while gulping down energy drinks... it's amazing how all three of them have a good complexion and don't feel fatigued compared to that." I wonder if it's superhuman.

"Let's go home, Mani."

"yes"

Take Mani and jump home. Her third transfer caught her senses or she didn't fall anymore.

◇◇◇

"That's why it's been a while since I started living with Mani, who has become our maid." I was forced to struggle with an education that I didn't understand.

This is because even though she has raised apprentices, she has never raised servants. When I was feeding Ardela and others, he was a child, so I took care of everything around him. Prepare food, boil the bath and make a bed. It was a timetable to teach magic in between. In other words, the only thing I was making my apprentices do was study. It was a heavy burden on me, but at that time I was extremely lazy and didn't even think of the experiments I'm doing now, so it was just right for me to have a job.

"Anyway, I realized that teaching housework is surprisingly difficult." I usually solve everything with magic, so I can't be a role model for Mani. It is my creed that if I can't do something, I will be able to do it through trial and error, and I've actually been doing that for a long time. I have nothing but the theory of guts.

"I also feel like Mani's memory is really bad." Even if my teaching is bad, isn't it a bit strange that failure is the first thing you do? It's like breaking dishes and overturning buckets. When I seriously scolded him once to calm down and try to do it, he started cleaning while mumbling with his two invisible brothers, and this time he quickly made the whole house shiny.

"Haha, is that some kind of mental switch?"

"That means." Mani can go from being a clumsy girl to a working maid at any moment if she's mentally driven enough to rely on her dead brother... no, I don't. It is tragic to have to evoke a trauma each time in order to get someone to do one task. Or rather, if she did that, she would soon be broken. I want Mani to manage my home, not that I want her to be a silent interior.

"Why can't you do anything without turning on the switch in the first place?" It was just the other day that she was able to wash her own body without me taking care of her. I don't even try. He's always waiting for my orders, but when I try to give him orders, he doesn't move very well.

I can't think of a solution other than injecting Eidos' magic into Mani and having him master my way of doing housework, so I can teach him well, but there's a high chance that Mani will die before that. decided to throw. That's because there are people around me who can be good directors even if I don't insist on educating them.

"If you decide to do so, act immediately." Having just finished breakfast, he tells Mani, who is dangerously trying to clean up her dishes, to stop and tell her that she is leaving now. She was silent, but I could tell she was worried about where she was going.

"I'm sorry"

They jumped in front of Lina's mansion, the landowner of the Orio territory. I mixed it with other trees and planted one black tree that was the same as that of the Black Forest, so I could visit Lina's house anytime. Well, the physical distance isn't that far from the start, but after all it's easy to be set as a transfer destination.

As I sensed that they were responding to the call through the door, I casually glanced at the village. Then, in that village, which is the largest in the Orio territory, I saw an unfamiliar group.
