After the dinner party, everyone took a bath, and the next day. It was the day of the anniversary of the founding of the Dragonis Mountain Kingdom.
picture? What happened to last night's dinner party and the bath afterwards? Although the dinner party was the eve of the festival, it didn't look much different from the dinner party on the first day. It's just that the reception has changed from His Highness the Crown Prince to Her Highness the Princess.
Her Royal Highnesses are sweet with me, Grande, and the other women――sweet? For the time being, our usual state seems to be interested in the Merinard Kingdom, so we asked various things. They were good listeners and I enjoyed talking with them.
In the end, I was the one who surrounded them—or rather, I was surprised at the number of women surrounding me.
"It's a feat of Kosuke's bravery and stubbornness."
"Please take it easy."
My sincere appeal was ignored. It's not about waking up in the morning and recovering in about an hour, or doing something with medicine in case of emergency. It's a story about getting rid of the situation where you suddenly faint and when you wake up, it's morning.
It seems that our exchange was also fun for them, and they were laughing with a funny giggle. Let's stop saying scary things about whether Grande's child and my child can become breast brothers and sisters if everything goes well. It is impossible to increase it further. wither and die. Even though the number of beastman maids has increased.
I haven't touched them so far, but I have a feeling it'll end up like this. Right now, only Ellen, Amelie, and Harpie-san have gotten pregnant and given birth, but since they don't use contraception, the long-lived species Sylphy, Isla, and Melty, who have difficulty getting pregnant, will eventually become pregnant. would be I'm thinking that maybe at that timing, I'll have that kind of relationship with them. It's still a long way off, but I don't think it's too far into the future.
Well, that time is that time. Even if we increase the number of people now, the weight of responsibility won't change so much, or rather, we've already broken through the limit. As far as I can, I intend to do my best to take responsibility for my efforts. Well, as a matter of fact, I'm going to put my hand out, or I'm going to put my hand out.
But it's not like I'm seriously resisting and rejecting it either. They're probably doing it to avoid the ethics I've cultivated in their own way, or to deceive them. It must be so. Overall, I feel that the women in this world have a high degree of carnivorousness, but I'm sure it's just my imagination. Let's close our eyes to the male-female ratio of the Merinard Kingdom's army, and if anything, the men are desperate to protect themselves.
Quiet topic.
That's why we spent last night, and this morning, it's about 9 o'clock in the morning, which isn't too early, so it's the opening ceremony for the National Foundation Day.
"Boring"
Grande let out a big yawn while saying that. Well, from Grande's point of view, this kind of event, or rather, a ritual event for the human race would be completely out of the realm of interest. Dress up early in the morning and just sit still—no, don't sit still. Even though he's all dressed up, he's leaning against my knees and rolling around.
For our seats, we had a special chaise longue, or rather a big sofa. We're the only ones who get special treatment, but that's okay. For the Dragonis Mountain Kingdom, the existence of Grande is the legend of the founding fathers, and its rebirth itself. I guess this is the result of trying to make Grande feel as comfortable as possible.
By the way, the place is also called a special seat, or it is made like a box seat with a screen. Perhaps it was to avoid exposing the figure of Grande who was lazy about Freedom to the public eye.
"I'm so-so-interesting"
"Yes. I think it's interesting too."
This event seems to be relatively popular with Aira and Dryada. I'm actually interested in it too. At first, it started with His Majesty the King's instruction, or rather, the celebration of the founding day, but the ceremony after that was like a theatrical performance. It seems to be a reproduction of the rise of the Dragonis Mountain Kingdom, where a blue dragon and a human daughter develop a bond, and eventually the dragon transforms into a humanoid and marries the human daughter.
After that, the dragon and her daughter defeated the monsters that nested in the mountains, and the people who had been driven from their homes and the races who believed in dragons gathered around them, and after many twists and turns, they created the Dragonis Mountain Kingdom.
"So, in the end, the two of us left the rest to the children and left for somewhere."
"Interesting. Did you extend the human lifespan?"
"I feel like anything is possible with dragons."
It is said that the last appearance of the daughter flying off on a blue dragon remained young until the very end. In the play, it was explained that she was the blessing of being a dragon's companion, but I wonder what it actually is.
"Come on. Maybe it's just because I've been receiving the spirit of a mighty dragon unexpectedly."
"too direct"
"But it seems possible. The dragon's blood is so full of magic and vitality that it can make up for the lack of flesh if processed. The dragon's spirit may be more effective than blood."
"... I will pray that male dragons will not be hunted for anti-aging in the future."
For short-lived species, substances that keep them young and extend their lifespan are too valuable. In the future, if technology and civilization develop and humans gain power that surpasses even dragons, perhaps dragon hunting may develop as an industry. After all, whales were overfished on Earth for a period of time.
Well, dragons are not only strong, but they are also a clever race. If that were the case, I wouldn't sit back and wait for destruction.
"I want to say that it's stupid, but when I look at the weapons, tools, and vehicles that Kosuke makes… I can't say that there is absolutely no such thing."
"N, I understand. In the future of the magic airship, it may be a weapon that can kill dragons alone."
Isla nodded at Grande's words. Certainly, there is a possibility if the magic airship becomes faster, stiffer, and acquires more offensive power. It doesn't seem like an ordinary thing to gain armor and a barrier that can't budge even when attacked by a dragon, and an offensive power that can pierce even a dragon's scales.
"It looks like it's about to end."
After the Ancestor Dragon and the Founder's Daughter departed, the children cooperated to protect the people and the country, up to now. That seems to be the end of the founding drama of the Dragonis Mountain Kingdom. After that, when the representatives of each country gave their congratulatory words, it was time for a banquet. How many times has it happened in the last few days? It's almost time to eat the banquet food, but let's get over it somehow.
