Today is the day we leave for our Goblin King subjugation quest.
We were supposed to assemble at the guild, but I came a little too early.
“Nest-san, may I have a moment?”
While I was sitting at the guild table like I always do when healing, Asha-san comes over.
“Yes, what is it?”
“Actually…… the King usually works in the capital, but today he’s coming to the guild to do an undercover inspection……”
Is that.. something you should be telling an ordinary person like me?
“T-the king, huh…… I turned down the healing request when I was summoned before, so meeting him would be awkward…”
I might have been able to cure his family if I had treated them, but I didn’t. Because I didn’t want my recovery magic to stand out.
And although I snuck into the castle in disguise, I only managed to heal two servants in the end.
I fear the Saint may already be……
“So something like that happened…… Then it’s fortunate that you’re leaving on a quest for a few days.”
“It is very lucky. It would be troubling if I was told that I made a lèse-majesté when we met again…….”
“Is that so? Our present king is both wise and generous, and has also earned a lot of support from the masses so it should probably be fine though.”
In that case, is it alright to be a little relieved…….?
“I have a favour regarding him though.. I wanted to ask if you’ll let Aura-san be the guide for the king when he comes to town.”
It’s true that Aura was from royalty, and she should know the proper etiquette……
“Er.. I don’t have any problem with that. Ah, but please verify with the person herself first.”
“Yes, of course.”
The party members all gathered not long after that and we departed, with Asha-san sending us off.
