C35 – Demons appears

Prince Arowana came to visit again. We’ll take you to your new home as soon as possible.

「What? 」

As expected, Prince Arowana was overwhelmed by the size of our mansion.

That’s why it was worthwhile to build it.

「I didn’t expect you to build such a magnificent mansion……..? And in such a short period of time, does the saint have any special powers from God? 」

As a matter of fact, it is. Invite him indoors in earnest….

Oh, brother-in-law please take off the shoes there. Because it’s a house with that kind of rules.

You’re not wearing them?

Well, you’re right. He’s a mermaid There’s no way you could put shoes on in that order, because the tail fins are designed to change into human feet when they come up from the sea.

He still wear just a pair of sea pants on my bottom half and it’s a boomerang type.

Then have him wipe his feet with the rag there….

…. yes.

So here you go. What about some green tea we’ve grown recently?

「I’ve been talking to my father about marrying you to my sister, Platy.」

With the greetings out of the way, let’s get down to business.

By the way, Prince Arowana’s father is the king of the land of mermaids.

「My father was baffled at first but after I told him about your character and strength he agreed with me, especially the fact that you’re not part of any force 」

「I know.」

Platy, the daughter of the Mermaid King is not only good-looking but also a super genius.

She is well versed in the unique potions used by mermaids and her reputation reverberates not only under the sea, but also on the ground.

That’s as far as it goes, you can just say 『Amazing! 』but things can be bad if they go too far with everything.

An application for marriage to Platy came from the demon and human tribes living on earth.

This was not just a marriage story, but a diplomatic issue between the races.

It devolves into something like a military alliance with the species that Platy married into.

In other words, we’re going to war with the one who didn’t marry or something like that.

For a long time, the mermaid race has been non-interfering in the war between the demon race and the human race and has remained neutral.

The breakdown of that neutrality led to a huge uproar.

Platy himself may or may not have been aware of this predicament, but she ran away from the mermaid kingdom and lost sight of it.

Then lives under me and now.

「Demons, humans and mermaids with Platy married to you, who is not a member of any force it seems that the mermaid race will be able to remain as neutral as before. Above all, Platy herself likes you the best thing to do is to marry her to the man she liked 」

「It’s…! 」

I don’t know what to say back, so I have to fool myself with an affectionate smile.

「Anyway, weren’t the demon tribe and the human race angry at such an outcome? 」

「they are angry.」

That’s right.

「 It seems that both the demon tribe and the human tribe took this opportunity to form a coalition with the mermaid tribe to completely crush the opponent. They’re angry on both sides because the plan didn’t work out.」

「Oh, no.」

「 Then my father, The Mermaid King said. 『 My daughter Platy is married to a saint』and 『It’s only natural that you should marry your daughter off to the one who will be the best husband and the one she likes』

「…………」

You’ve given me a big lift, even if it’s just to get away with saying it.

「And that convinced them? 」

「 In a manner of speaking. It’s a shame we can’t get Platy but in light of the fact that our opponents also want Platy, we’ve decided it’s better to keep it that way.」

If by mistake, Platy marries into the enemy’s side the worst of it will be that they will be the ones surrounded by a coalition of enemy forces and mermaid nations.

The wife-taking battle was over Platy is high risk because of the high returns.

It is not a foolish choice to take that risk, but it’s not a wise one.

「I will do everything in my power to avoid any inconvenience to you saint So, please take care of Platy……..!」

「Of course 」

I’m going to live in peace here forever with Platy.

「I’m relieved to hear that. ….By the way, where is Platy when it comes to? 」

「She’s in the mountain dungeon with Vielle.」

Today, she’s running around the mountain in search of egg-laying bird monster.

As with Vielle, their obsession with food is enormous.

If I had known Prince Arowana was coming today I wouldn’t have let her out, I would have made her stand by.

「Well I’m glad to see that she’s having a good time here 」

「 She’s helped me too, you know. Oh, yes. Would you like to try this? It’s something called Miso, which I made in collaboration with Platy…! 」

The combination of my memories and Platy’s knowledge of Potions finally completed the miso and soy sauce.

Now I’m going to expand the range of dishes I can make again.

I immediately made miso with chopped green onions and tossed it with scallion miso.

「Huh, that looks like the jalapenos inside a crab! 」

「Crab miso? 」

It’s certainly similar, isn’t it? .

They call it crab miso because of the resemblance.

Prince Arowana who grew up in the sea, didn’t seem to have a preference for food.

They must eat sea urchins, sea cucumbers and other fancy food like that on a daily basis because they’re royalty.

「Delicious.」

「Delicious.」

「 Back off. 」

「 I can’t stop licking it. 」

So, Prince Arowana and I are licking the green onion miso and assessing its taste.

………A panicked voice came from outside.

「My Lord! Report! 」

I believe it was one of the goblins working on our farm who ran into the yard.

I know you’re in the middle of working the fields now but what the hell is going on?

「There’s a strange ship on the beach! 」

「What? 」

That had never happened to me since I started living here.

Boat…. Who the hell is on board?

「The ship has docked and a large number of monsters have come ashore from inside. We think it’s the one led by the demon race! 」

「Demons? 」

It was Prince Arowana who responded.

「The demon tribe didn’t know you were here, and It’s kept to be a first-class state secret! 」

「We’re not going to know what’s going on until we see it.」

We’ll only draw conclusions after we’ve tried to understand the situation.

I instructed the goblins to head to the site where the demon tribe had landed.

And what I saw there was…!

*    *    *

「…Huh? 」

It was an orc belonging to my farm, a demon tribe that had been overrun by goblins and held captive
