Continuing Shizuku’s POV*

I’m not good at dealing with the crown prince.

It’s like talking to a wall, and he doesn’t hear when others refuse to agree.

It’s not that he hasn’t heard the conversation, but I don’t think it’s something that affects this person.

“How’s it going?”

It seemed that he had parted ways with the women around him, so the crown prince came alone and sat down on a chair.

Ash Claude-san and I were eating at a round table, so it was like splitting between the three of us.

When I was thinking about how to return his greeting, Ash Claude-san put down the cutlery and started reporting to the crown prince.

The owner of the pearl shop in the back alley, how we went to the poacher’s hideout, how the hideout looked, and how many people there were. And now Thruster-san is acting with the poachers.

After listening to the general report, the crown prince laughed lightly.

“Yeah, yeah! It’s generally going well! I was wondering what would happen when the magic fish appeared in the market, but Shina-kun, Volvi, and Ryleigh Grand responded. And they’re praising Volvi and Ryleigh as heroes for defeating the magic fish, and they’re getting excited!”

After all, Shina-san go involved. . .!

When I heard Shina-san’s name, I put down the cutlery too.

“What about Shina-san? Is Shina-san okay?”

“Because Volvi and Ryleigh Grand are over there!”

The Crown Prince nodded appreciatively to me who was impatient.

“At times like this, we need to have the leeway to leave things to them!”

Then he snapped and winked.

“Volvi is strong. Ryleigh Grand is smart and good with worldly affairs. I think Shina-kun acts like an adult woman, and her skills are strong.”

“. . . That’s right.”

“It seems that the three of them responded without any problems. We’ll do what we can.”

“What we can do. . .”

“Yes. We have one thing to do.”

The crown prince hid his voice a little.

“. . . We’re going to catch, get rid of, and annihilate all the poachers all at once.”

The purple eyes turn serious.

“From now on, a banquet will be held in the central square to honor Volvi and Ryleigh. During that time, we are thinking of moving. I’ve finished collecting information, and Thruster should be holding down the evidence now.”

“. . .Isn’t it too early?”

Just on day to find out about pearls. I cast doubts on the crown prince who is going to expose them all at once.

However, the crown prince didn’t mind and laughed, ‘No problem!’

“It’s a strategy I devised while conveying the information I got to Thruster as needed! I should have been able to enter the hideout today as well.”

I nodded at the words of the crown prince.

Getting from the back alley pearl shop to the poacher’s lair was disappointingly easy.

“Poachers here are able to obtain, process, and sell to tourists who came to this port. But that’s all. They don’t have a sales channel to sell outside. I knew that if we gave them the bait, they would bite right away.”

“. . . That’s right. When they heard about the royal capital and that I would wear pearls, the conversation progressed immediately.”

“Because what they want showed up right in front of them. Besides, Thruster seems to be serious, so it should be fine.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah. He’s motivated enough to stay away from Ryleigh Grand and do an infiltration investigation! Thruster doesn’t seem to think much about the magic fish invasion. He knows that calming down the situation as soon as possible will benefit Shina-kun.”

“Shina-san. . .”

“That’s right. Because Thruster has decided that his master is Shina-kun. He can’t be serious about me.”

. . . . . The master of Thruster-san is Shina-san?

I was surprised by the words I had never expected.

“Aren’t you the master of Thruster-san?”

“Well, it’s not me.”

The crown prince is sad! he laughed.

“Thruster’s nose is too sharp, and he’s always in a bad mood. It was fun to watch his personality get worse as he grew up.”

The crown prince nods to himself.

“Now, both of you should eat. Humans need food!”

“I’m sorry. . .! I’ll bring you a meal.”

Ash Claude-san tried to bring food to the crown prince there as well.

However, the crown prince laughed and won.

“You don’t have to worry about me. I have strong skills, so I don’t need to eat!”

“You don’t need it?”

“I have the skills [Automatic Recovery] and [Health Maintenance], but I don’t really know which skill has that power.”

. . . You don’t have to eat.

I look at the crown prince in surprise, but he’s the same as always, just laughing, hahaha!

“I don’t need to sleep! That’s why I was able to gather information without sleeping yesterday, and I’m still fine today!”

“. . .Aren’t you sleeping?”

“If you’re as charming as I am, the other person won’t let you sleep!”

Then snap and wink.

I put my face down to avoid that wink and let out a sigh. People who can’t speak properly get tired.

“I don’t hate Shizuku-kun’s attitude, which makes me know that you’re not good at dealing with me, but I still like Shina-kun. Shina-kun was worried about me straight away! It makes me feel very ticklish, and i feel like I’ve become a normal human and it’s fluffy!”

“. . .A normal human”

I know he likes Shina-san, but he speaks in a strange way.

That’s why, when I frowned, the crown prince’s purple eyes sparkled.

“Me and Shina-kun. Which do you think is stronger if we fight?”

He looks very happy.

“If it’s Shina-kun and myself, I’m sure I’m stronger than her. But there are a lot of people around Shina-kun, right? Volvi, Ryleigh Grand, Thruster, Ash Claude, Zezgard, Gyabussh, Shizuku-kun. Everyone. It’s hard for me to beat her myself.”

He looks happy.

“Ash Claude gave the sword passed down from his ancestors to Shina-kun, right?”

“. . .”

Suddenly, Ash Claude took a deep breath.

Seeing that, the crown prince said Hahaha! and laughed.

“I don’t want to blame you! I just thought it was going back to Shina-kun.”

“. . .What do you mean returning to Isarai Shina?”

“It’s been a long time since Ash Claude’s family left the royal family, so you haven’t heard anything about the sword, have you?”

“Yes.”

“Before this country was created, there was a very large and strong magical beast. It seems that this magical beast had the power to subdue other magical beasts. Our ancestors were the ones who defeated that large magical beast. It was said that Ash Claude’s sword was made from that magic beasts fangs.”

“The heirloom sword. . . The fang of a magic beast. . .”

“The story is that after defeating the big magic beast, the forest where the magic beast was born was wrapped in a barrier by a saint.”

What the Crown Prince is talking about is just an anecdote.

And the story about Ash Claude-san’s sword.

However, my heart is pounding. . .

“Was the big magic beast the king of beasts?”

This is. . . Ask a question.

He’s asking us.

“Did the King of Beasts regain his fangs?”

. . . Shina-san is the king of the magic beasts.

“If the King of beasts is here and has regained his fangs, then I have no choice but to defeat him, you know?”

Purple eyes are sparkling.

How should I answer. . .? How can I protect Shina-san?

Nervous and dry mouth.

Then I heard a dignified voice from next to me.

“. . . The heirloom sword is here.”

Ash Claude-san’s slightly higher voice.

The expression that often changed in front of Shina-san was now firm.

“This is the heirloom sword.”

Straight words.

Without hesitation, Ash Claude-san showed the sword on his waist.

. . . .The sword is here.

“That’s right. Ash Claude-san said that the heirloom sword is here, so it’s the heirloom sword. That’s fine!”

The crown prince laughs hahaha.

Yes, yes! I nodded happily. . .

“Because I’m the strongest person in this world!”

He snapped and winked.

Wow. That was a very simple way of giving very important information. Like just throw it out there in the same way you would say ‘the weather is nice today.’ What just happened?!
