My Daughters The S-Rank Adventurers Had Severe Father-Con - 32 Called to the castle.txt

Father. I need a favor, Father.

Night. In my living room.

Elsa comes to me, and she cuts me off.

I look up from my newspaper.

“Hmm?　That’s weird. Elsa never asks me for anything. It’s fine. Just tell me what you need. I’ll help you any way I can.

Thank you. Actually, I’d like you to come to the castle tomorrow.

The castle?　Me?

Yes. Master Prim would like to see your father.

Prim– that’s the name of the princess in King’s Landing.

She was sneaking into the marketplace and was accused of escaping, and I paid her for her.

He’s been complaining all day. The whole castle was in turmoil. So I was wondering if your father could help me: ……

Elsa’s expression was exhausted.

As a Kingsguard, Elsa was the princess’s personal attendant. You can see that she must have been pushed around by the selfish prims.

Elsa must be going through a lot of trouble too. …….

I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

It’s for you, my daughter, of all people. All right.

‘Really?　Thank you for the help!

The clouds that hung over Elsa’s face cleared in a flash.

I placed my hand on her large chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

I was planning to go to the Adventurer’s Guild tomorrow, but when I told Anna about the situation, she told me to give priority to Erza.

.

And the next day…

I went with Elsa to the castle.

A drawbridge stood in front of the grand castle in the center of the capital. Ahead stood the gate with knights standing on either side.

When they saw us, they ran toward us.

Deep circles were under their eyes.

Oh!　Mr. Kaiser!　You’re here!　Good for you: ……!　Now the princess won’t have to go on a rampage anymore: ……!

‘Come on!　Give him an immediate audience!

I was thanked like crazy for just visiting .

I wonder how much Prim was spoiled yesterday: …….

Guided by a smiling Elsa, I stepped into the castle.

You walk down the marble corridor with its luxurious-looking carpeting and climb the stairs.

Then you open the luxurious double doors to the king’s room.

“Elsa. Thank you for your service,” said Prim. She sat cross-legged on the throne where the king should sit.

She was dressed in a dress instead of the cloth she was wearing before.

This makes her look like a princess after all. The dignity and splendor of a girl coexist beautifully together.

A touch of royal grace was also in the air.

Oh my goodness. You’re Kaiser?

A woman sitting next to Prim spoke up.

She was wearing a luxurious lace dress.

She exudes a demure air, a beauty without equal.

She’s the queen of this country–Sonia Wagenstein.

“Your Majesty. It’s nice to see you,” I said, kneeling there.

“Don’t be so reverent, Your Majesty. Just relax and enjoy your stay as if you were at home.

That’s absurd.

We’ll never feel at home in this solemn room of the king.

“My daughter has told me And what about the money you paid her to do for you? She must have been very difficult to deal with, being so selfish.

No. ……

‘Thank you for taking care of my daughter~. Mr. Knight. Please give that to Mr. Kaiser.

Ha!

The knight answered Sonia’s voice and came to me.

He held out a leather bag.

It was filled with gold.

Oh, no!　I can’t take it!

‘What?　Would it have been better for the estate?

‘Not that!　I don’t want to be paid.

That’s not going to happen. It would be a badge of honor for this country if we don’t thank you for saving our precious daughter, my dear.

So, then please donate the money to the church.

“Hmm. Okay. I’ll do what you say, Miss Kaiser. You don’t seem like a very greedy person.

Sonia smiled and said as she addressed her hand to her cheek.

”Elsa-san’s faithfulness was something you inherited from your father. I’m sure he was raised by a wonderful person. You were raised by a wonderful person.

Oh, thank you.

Elsa smiled shyly .

“Mother. Can I get back to the subject?

Oh, my. I’m sorry.

Sonia gave up control of the conversation and Prim looked at me. Then, in a tone of authority that makes it hard to believe she’s only ten years old, she says.

“It’s Kaiser. I was the one who called you here, of all people. I am to be Prim Wagenstein’s property!

What?

“I like you. It’s just my nature to not feel good about anything I like unless I have it in my possession.

“Prim. That’s a bit rough, isn’t it?

Sonia rebuked me softly and smiled at me as if she was troubled.

“I think she really likes you, Kaiser-san. My husband died five years ago. I think she’s hungry for her father.

So–

The king of this country died of illness five years ago.

‘Prim said she wanted to keep it as her property, but I’d like Mr. Kaiser to be my tutor.

You’re a tutor.

“Yes. I’d like you to help him learn and explore the outside world. I know that if you’re Erza’s father, Kaiser-san, I can trust you with him. What do you think?　Would you be willing to take it on?

“I’d be honored to talk to you. ……. “but I have a lot of other things on my plate. It would be very difficult to stay on top of things.

Of course, you can come by any day that suits you, Miss Kaiser. Just come by for a visit, that’s all.

I don’t think I’ll ever feel like wandering off to visit: …….

But–.

Prim lost her father when she was very young.

Maybe that’s why she’s so selfish and unrestrained, because she misses him.

She just wants attention. I think.

If I can help you, I’ll do it.

Really? And Prim’s face lit up.

‘Thank you, Mr. Kaiser. Thank you. I know she’s a pain in the ass, but please take good care of her.

Thus, I’m now the princess’s tutor.

Now I had a fourth job…besides being an instructor of the Order, an adventurer and a part-time teacher at the Academy.

That’s a scary parallel job.

One of these days, I’ll be overworked: …….

I couldn’t help but imagine that.
