“I’m here to settle thing about Rhys–“
I assured the king as I glared at him, and he gulped, looking a little pale. But that was all it took for the king to give Rhys a little bug-eyed look before he turned a grim expression and looked down at us from his high position.
“Limona, greet Sora sama.”
Rhys’s low voice echoed. Limona let out a sobbing scream and began to undress.
In front of the king, in a room poorer than the suite she had guided me. Perhaps in front of her own father. Limona took off her clothes without shame, appearance, or pride.
Her trembling pale eyes seemed to reflect only the sewing needle that Rhys held in her hand.
In the blink of an eye, Limona is completely naked and on her knees at my feet.
She was in a position with her buttocks facing the king and several of the knights escorting her, and she was so miserable that she got down on her knees at my feet and began to lick my shoes, which I had worn to come to the royal castle. The knights and the king’s eyes widened at the sight of Limona.
“L-Limona/ ……T-that Limona–“
“N-no way. Y-your Royal Highness……”
And the knight who would have served such Limona, with an expression of mixed astonishment and contempt, crawled on the ground, got down on their knees, and stared at Limona, who licked my shoes with no more dignity than a dog.
The king turned pale, wobbling and trembling, with a fearful look on his face.
“H-hero of transference. A-as for the settlement, what do you want? –To begin with, I don’t know the detailed situation.”
“But you’ve guessed most of it, haven’t you? ……..As you can see Rhys has been badly mistreated by this Limona.”
“What an enormous thing you’ve done, Limona. –You’re an excellent perso, but I always warned you that you had a tendency to get a little too emotional…….”
The king was lamenting, but Limona was licking my shoes without replying.
“Sora sama. I have been confined in this room for a while and have not been involved in politics, so I don’t know what exactly happened this time. But Limona was very rude. I am sorry about that. Please allow me to apologize.”
“Oh.”
I sensed a kind of dignity in this king, who bowed deeply in his chair, as if he were a superior person.
He looks timid and probably has no outstanding points in terms of policy or organizing his subordinates.
Even so, I thought this king was a man who knew what he was doing, who immediately bowed his head and made the right decision in an instant, something Limona had never been able to do in her entire life.
“So what? How are you going to show your sincerity?”
“L-let’s see. ….Then, although it is a cheap shot, let’s execute the knight who harmed the half-elf there. The instructions are given by Limona, but the execution will be done by her subordinates.
Oh, and I’m officially giving you Limona. You may enslave her, or you may kill her.”
Limona, who had been licking my boots the whole time, looks up and turns around.
“F-Father ! W-wait a minute ! No way ! It is a tradition in Barbados to torture half-elves ! Even Father has tortured and drugged dozens of half-elves in the past !
And yet ! It’s not fair that I’m the only one who’s been mistreated !”
“Shut up, you foolish girl ! You don’t understand the true nature of this problem at all ! The problem is not that you mistreated the half-elf, but that you damaged Sora sama’s things ! You don’t understand that either, and yet you took the throne from me !”
“N-no way, b-but……”
“But, but, no but ! ! Limona. You are the supreme power in this kingdom of Barbados. If you have failed, you should pay for it with your life ! !”
Limona bursts into tears at the king’s statement.
Such an attitude of Limona was quite unpleasant. She made no pretense of defending the knight who only followed her instructions, and made only excuses.
After all, a mere day’s education was probably not enough.
I was thinking that it might be okay to return Limona as a princess of Barbados, but I thought that after a few days, things would be back to normal and Barbados would once again be a place where half-elves are subjected to terrible treatment.
If that happened, Rhys would be sad, and if I could, I would like to see her happy face.
“Hey, Rhys. What do you want to do with Limona and this country?”
The king’s intention is probably to make an apology as cheaply as possible by offering me Limona and her subordinate knights, while playing the low card.
I think there is a possibility that he will take this opportunity to kill the Limona faction as a token of his apology to me, possibly by putting them back in power.
But I’m okay with that. I honestly don’t care about the politics of this country, who the king is, or anything else.
However, Rhyss, who has suffered under the system of this country and has had a hard time being discriminated against because she is a half-elf, is different.
Having lived in this country for decades, Rhys has a long-held attachment to it.
I don’t know what she wants.
But if she wants, she can kill Limona or the king. With my transfer ability, I can shift a mountain or something to a higher level and make a pseudo-meteorite fall, or I can easily bring the Cyclops I fought last time to the middle of the city.
I mean, that would be the easiest thing to do, and I’m beginning to think that would be the way to go.
But Rhys–
“If so, please make Sora sama the king of this country.”
She said something like that.
The king opened his eyes and then meditated hard.
“…..Well, Limona has taken power, and so have I. Limona, who angered Sora sama, is also unqualified to be the king of this country. If Sora sama, who has seven-star skills and is most likely a true hero, is the king, that too will be for the future of this country.”
The king readily admits.
“I-I think it’s a wonderful idea !”
And Limona also agreed, while focusing on the needle in Rhys’s hand.
Frankly speaking, I don’t want a country like this.
The level of civilization is terrible, it’s dirty, and it’s unsafe. Even if I became the king of Barbados and went to the limit of luxury, I wouldn’t be able to eat better food than in Japan, I wouldn’t be able to get a good futon, and my house would be much more comfortable in Japan because there are no air conditioners or toilets here.
“……H-how about you, Sora sama?”
Rhys blushed a little.
Well, to be honest, I don’t need the country at all–well, I guess I can just get it.
“Well, that’s fine. But politics and all that is too much trouble, so I’m going to appoint Rhys as a minister. I’ll leave everything to you, so just take it as you see fit. Just make sure that both Limona and the king follow Rhys’s lead.”
“T-the half-elf?
“I-I can’t believe that a half-elf is going to be the effective ruler of Barbados……”
The king and knights are looking blue. Well, the half-elf, who has been discriminated against so much up until now, will become the top of the country. No wonder.
However, that doesn’t mean they attack me or raise any objections. Was it such a shock to them that Limona got down on her knees naked? Or, unlike Limona, do they understand, even to some extent, how powerful [Transfer] is?
Whatever the case, it seems that I have become the king of Barbados.
However, governing is a hassle. For the time being, I would like to manage this country by selling and earning money—.
