Chapter 10
A few days later, I came to the royal castle.
After I arrived, I was led to a room and told to wait, so I’m waiting right now.
「I only have these clothes, but would it be better if I changed?」
「Hm? The king is a lenient person. Don’t worry about it.」
「… Then why is Leader wearing new armor?」
「…HAHAHA!」
「Please stop trying to trick me while laughing like that!」
「By the way, why is Roy-kun here too?」
「What, you don’t know? The one who took the head was Roy.」
「Ehhh! Really!?」
「Ahaha…」
I thought he would do something of use, but to take the head of the enemy…
In the end, I spoke to the castle’s staff and borrowed a uniform.
After someone knocked on the door with a knock knock,
「Excuse me.」
A maid entered the room.
「The preparations for the audience are done. Please follow me.」
We followed the maid and stopped in front of a large gate.
「Past this door is the King. Please mind your manners.」
The maid stepped back and the gate opened.
I don’t know if this was appropriate, but Leader and Roy-kun moved forward hastily.
I followed after them and everyone stopped and kneeled in front of the man in the crown.
In confusion, I mimicked them.
「Lint Bloom Kishidan leader Gimlu, I have heard of your great feats. You stood in front of all the Kishidan and cut through the advance guard. Even though you were being pushed, you maintained the front lines. Therefore, I want to award you with a medal of honor and 50 pieces of large gold. 」
「Hah! I humbly accept your kindness, Your Majesty.」
Here is an explanation of money.
Large Gold (大金貨) = 1,000,000 yen
Gold (金貨) = 100,000 yen
Large Silver (大銀貨) = 10,000 yen
Silver (銀貨) = 1,000 yen
Copper (銅貨) = 100 yen
So, 50 x 1,000,000 = 50,000,000 yen*
*TL: To change to USD, move decimal twice to the left, so it’s about 500,000 USD. I’m keeping everything in yen.
50 million!? Isn’t he rich now?!
「Roy of the Lint Bloom Order, in the decisive battle of the Northern Plains, you did a magnificent job by capturing the leader of Teikoku Kishidan. You deserve praise in your merits. Therefore, I will give you 40 pieces of large gold. 」
「I humbly accept your kindness, Your Majesty.」
「Now, for Kio.」
「Y- Yes!」
「I have heard about the work you have done from many people including the leader of Oukoku Kishidan. I want to thank you, too.」
「Well, Kio. I’ve thought about various rewards, but what would be good? Tell me. Even if I look like this, I’m the King of a whole country. I can get most things.」
「Eh, u~m, oh, a knife… a knife is good!」
「A knife? A knife for only cooking?」
「Yes.」
「… HAHAHA! I see! A knife, huh! Hm, accepted. I swear to prepare the most supreme knife!」
「Th- thank you very much. 」
「Hm, so we are done with the audience. We will give the rewards to recipients later.」
We left the castle and went back to the usual inn.
「PU, HAHA! Ah~ I can’t stop laughing-! What’s with you, a knife? Normally, people would ask for something nicer, right?」
「I couldn’t help it! Nothing else came to mind. And the knife I’m using right now is a bit difficult to use.」
「Well, it’s because you’re Kio, so it can’t be helped!」
A few days later, a person in butler clothes came from the castle and I received a knife.
It seems that it was made with all mythril.
By the way, when I got the knife, he said something or other about slashing attacks but I didn’t pay attention.
On the next day, it seems that Lint Bloom Kishidan took a week off. I think it was to refresh themselves.
For that reason, I came to the forest by myself.
Its nickname is The Forest of Beginners, since monsters appear seldom and only monsters that are easy to beat by children, like slimes, appear.
That’s right, slimes appear!
Before, when I first came to this world, I was almost killed by a slime.
However, when I think more, it was probably because I didn’t know what was going on at that time.
Since then I’ve defeated things like dragons and a cockatrice, so I think I can do it.
Honestly, I can only see them as jellies. Food that I can absolutely eat.
And the result…
Right now, from my head to my waist, I have been swallowed by a slime.
「Mama-, there’s someone weird here?」
「Hey! Don’t look.」
「GOBOGAGAH! GOBOBOH! (Wait, please! Save me!)
Even kids can take down slimes… an adult who has been swallowed by a slime can’t be normal.
Rather, this kind of human must have some special trait.
Ah, crap. This is really bad. My vision is gradually dimming.
「Fireball!」
A fireball flew out of nowhere and killed the slime in one hit.
「Buhah! Huff-, Puff-, Th- thank you so much.」
The one who saved me was Miki-san.
「Hah-, What the heck were you doing? If your partner didn’t inform me, you would’ve been dead.」
「Partner?」
「Look, that rat that’s always with you.」
「Squeak-!」
「N- Nezumi-kun told you?」
「Squeaak-!」
「Thank you Nezmi-kun!」
Yep, I swear I will never challenge a slime ever again.
