I need a certain number of members before I can discuss my future project which I will start next year (probably April 2018).

I have updated the page about the novels I rejected and why. I still need suggestion about my third project.

Thanks for reading

PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR READER VIEW

I was red with embarrassment.

I slowly returned to the ship with Adelle.

A lot of the people who fell into the sea had been rescued, they were now receiving warm soup which Roxas had prepared.
Its nice to have such a great cook in these rough waters.

As we descended, the Earl came running to greet us.

Masaki-dono, thank you for saving the Kingdom from this crisis. Who would have thought that Leviathan was being manipulated

What!? The Leviathan can talk!?
Yes, he was surprisingly friendly. And I got this item

I showed the Leviathan Bracelet to the Earl.
(TL: need help with this )

Such a wonderful item
I cant imagine how much mana is contained inside this item

Both the Earl and Claudia came closer to gaze at the bracelet.

The Leviathan gave me this item and entrusted us with his desire to defeat the Empire. But I am worried that the damage would be too great if I handle it on my own

Lets keep the detail about NEET God a secret. To save his dignity.

Is that so Lets head to the castle at once. I have to report various things to his Majesty

Id like only Masaki-dono, as the head of pirate group and as the otherworlder, and Adelhide to accompany me to the castle

My men seemed to dislike the idea of me going into the castle without them.

Ill set the inn as the meeting point.

I understand
Okay

Adelle and I agreed and went to the remains of the military port.

Big Boss, just take it easy! Well be waiting back at the inn
Thank you. If something happens, Ill contact you via telepathy

Adelle and I got off at the military port and everyone else crossed the canal and passed the cliff.
They should anchor in the lake ahead.

If we go straight from here, we will arrive at the castle. There are rumors about you around the town. The Hero of the Blue Sea and The Crimson Princess Knight

Even though Im not a princess

It seemed that both of us dont want to stand out, we would rather be left alone if possible.
Since we just fought head-to-head with the Leviathan and saved the legendary god from a curse, I guess it couldnt be helped.

Adelle, the Earl, and I went up the brightly lit stairway together.

Eventually, the gorgeous royal palace appeared before our eyes.

Both of us were lead by the Earl. A soldier ran toward us from across the street.
The soldier told the Earl something and the Earl handed a bundle of paper to him. Then the soldier bowed and left. I wonder what happened.

Apparently, His Majesty wants to see both of you now. It seems that he watched your battle with a telescope

D-d-does that mean he saw my little scene with Adelle?! No way! I refuse!
Well, even if I said I refuse, the King wanted to meet us, so we had to meet him.

God damn it!

Audience with the King, eh? Even though I dont know anything about the nobles etiquette

Im very thankful for that

Following Adelles movements, right? I will manage somehow.

I had intended to introduce both of you to his Majesty, but this incident saved me time and effort. Oh, its time Come with me

It seemed that we were planned to wait in the guest room at first, but we were told to head to the audience chamber at once.

I remembered that she was acquainted with the King, has she been here before?

***

Both of us arrived at the audience place.

In front of us wearing a thick red cloak sitting on the throne was the King with a luxurious crown that looked heavy on his head.

The royal guards were stationed near the surrounding walls.
The knight who stood beside the King was equipped better than the Earl.

Since I dont know anything about etiquette, I bend my knees a bit and lowered my head.

Raise your head

I was able to look at the Kings face after he told us to raise our head.

He was probably 60 years old. His white mustache and gray hair stood out.

Earl Allan, we are really grateful for your initiative to gather reinforcements to help the Kingdom in its crisis
Im honored by such praise, Your Majesty!

After the Earl lowered his head deeply, the King looked towards us.

Why cant Status Effect Immunity cure nervousness?

I am Roland el Saint Drag. You must be the person who stopped the Leviathan. It was a great fight to watch. I thought it was over when you were eaten but I was surprised when you came back out alive

As expected, he saw the whole incident

Your praise is wasted upon someone like me

It is as dear father had said. Even among the legends, I have never heard about any human surviving a fight with the Sea God Leviathan. Your achievement will be written in history. You should be proud about it
R-right! I will devote myself to keep your expectation

I lowered my head deeply as I replied. Maybe this is fine. Since both of them didnt show any displeasure, I think its fine.

So the one beside him is the prince. That explained a lot. He is black-haired ikemen. that looked lean and muscular even with the armor on and looked very similar to his father

Its been a long time, Adelhide. Im sorry we couldnt help the Valentine Empire

I remember many years ago You were brought to me by my little brother as a very energetic small child. You used to run very cheerfully around the palace
P-please dont spread it around. Roland, His majesty. I was a child back then. Im different now

Adelles face became red as his majesty retold the story of when she was a child.

I asked the Earl.

(Is Adelle his Majestys niece?)

(I didnt know Adelle didnt tell me anything)
(Perhaps she didnt want to show off her lineage and wanted to be recognized for her own effort)

It makes you wonder that if your parents were royalty of another country and watching your every moves with a biased viewpoint.

I dont want to treat the current Adelle as a princess.

And that embrace just before The way you embraced Masaki was good enough to be put into a drama

His Highness Roland Prince Leon uuu

So his name is Leon.

I beg of you, please stop the drama!
I couldnt see her face but Adelles face is surely bright red.

***

Very well, I have 3 people to reward. First, Earl Allan who rushed to our aid when the Kingdom was in peril, The Kingdom presents you the Andorra territory
Thank you very much your Majesty!

Earl Allan seemed to have just increased his territory.
If you get the territory, you can apply taxes to various businesses, but thats not related to me right now.

Next the Hero of the Blue Sea. Masaki Toudou, you will be given a medal from Saint Drag and a Baronet noble rank. Furthermore, you will be given 1 million francs for crippling the Empires naval fleet

So they officially recognize me as the Hero of the Blue Sea.

However, what about the confirmation about the destruction of Empires fleet?

Im sorry, your majesty. The report about the destruction of Empires fleet is based on Masaki-donos testimony alone. We need more confirma

E? I am not? M-me?
Correct. Please come in

As his majesty spoke, a man wearing knight armor came in.
Is it someone I know?

I stared at his face but I couldnt remember anything
I have a rather good memory but I couldnt remember.

I dont recognize his height and style either. His muscle build is common as well. He has a normal height too. He is probably 50 years old. But where have I seen him before.

Looking at me who tilted my head, his Majesty seemed to enjoy my confusion.

Hahahaha. You do not seem to recognize him

(TL: Masaki gave him the advice to jog 30 minutes every morning in ch2)

Oh youre that guy!

I remembered. He was the soldier I talked briefly.
It was a short chat, but it preserved my mental health.

Let me re-introduce myself. I am a Saint Drag spy. I work directly under his Majestys order. and Im an otherworlder like you A Shinobi Chieffrom the MMO Sengoku Samurai Senki. My name is Jirou Tanaka
Another person from my world!

I met a person from the same world for the first time. But he came from a different MMO.

That meant its not an MMO I played before.
I couldnt imagine how many kinds of people came to this world

Jirou, Im sure you have many things to talk about, but we still have rewards to give. The medal please
Yes!

Jirou disappeared and reappeared immediately with a small box in his hands.
Adelle gave me advice as she knew I was kneeling without knowing how to receive the medal.

Stand up, its easier for his Majesty to attach themedal to your left chest

I just let him attach the medal to my Azure Dragon Cloak.
He attached it to me accordingly without any incident or special ceremony.

Originally, Id like to have rewarded you with territory but
Dear father, I think thats moving too fast for Baronet Masaki. Why not give him a house to live instead? There is a mansion suitable for Baronet Masaki

Yes. Im grateful for a house. Even if I have 100 million yen of Japanese money, it will disappear quickly depending on the housing market.

That mansion thats right together with Adelhide. Very well. Lets give him some territory after he has done more work
Furthermore, you wouldnt need to hire any soldiers yet

So Ill be given a territory if I do more work? I dont want to sound like a certain Sea God, but Im dont want to work.

Finally, Adelhide Bernstein. For defeating the sea serpents and protecting our soldiers, I will reward you the title of a knight. Id like you to serve royal palace if possible, but you seemed to have found someone to serve already

Dear father, other nobles may try to get their hands on Adelle. I also think its good to put her under Masaki-dono
Certainly, that is another good point. Work hard

Even though she didnt get to work in the palace, she was accepted as a noble of Saint Drag Kingdom.

Then it would certainly be safer to put her under my wing.

The kingdom then acknowledged my pirate group as my own private soldiers.
The prince also told me that they wanted a person capable of moving quickly to deal with occasional fights.

He struck me as a kind and a quite friendly prince.
A likable fellow.

And this is how I got a lot of money, a mansion, and became a noble of this country.
Im tired of thinking about the nobilitys political war but this is necessary to defeat the Empire.

Ill endure it.

Oh, I need to have a talk with Jirou. Id like to ask him for any information he has about this world.

Maybe they can be a reliable companion, and on the other hand, they could strike us as a formidable enemy.

As I carved the Leviathans threat in my heart, I left the audience chamber.

ED: Well thats another chapter hope you enjoyed see you in the next one!
