Chapter 51
With a bad feeling we were led to the audience chamber. But this castle is very nice. The fountain in the courtyard and the sculptures in the castle could be sold for a considerable price if they were put out for sale.
However, all of them are old and the fountain seems not to have been maintained. The beauty of the fountains and castle made me wonder about the parts of the fountains that had fallen down. The fact that humans and dwarves don’t get along with each other is probably not irrelevant.
“This is the King’s Chamber. Grace-sama is here!”
At Kaiser’s words, the massive door is opened. A number of soldiers wearing mithril armor were waiting, as was Kaiser, and seated on the throne was an overweight man dressed in expensive clothes. Perhaps he was the king of Dwell.
We proceeded to the king’s room and knelt before his throne. I don’t know if he’s incompetent or not, but he’s the king of another country. We had to show at least a minimum of courtesy.
“Lift up your heads, for you have traveled a long way. My Vermillion friend.”
“Thank you, my king. I have come as a reinforcement to Dwell on my father’s orders. My name is Grace Vermilion. I have brought with me an invention against mineral ants, which I’m sure will be of great help to you.”
“Hmm, an invention huh…….”

The King of Dwell seemed momentarily interested in my words, but for some reason, he looked around with a confused look on his face. What is the matter with him?
He coughed and said something outrageous.
“So, Grace-dono, when is your reinforcement, Georg-dono, coming? By the looks of it, you are few in number. You’re an advance guard, aren’t you?”
“……?”
I involuntarily listen back to the king’s words. No, no, no, we are allies, albeit in another country. You know that I and Georg and Kyle don’t get along with each other. Even at that, Georg’s advance party can’t do anything.
I took a deep breath to calm down.
“No, I am not Georg’s subrordinate. I have come to reinforce as the lord of Asgard on my father’s orders. We are few in number, but we will surely show you how to destroy the mineral ants.”
“What …… is Georg-dono still not here?”
The king sighs and holds his head in his hands. I don’t know how he feels, but he should at least try to get a hold of himself…. Well, I know what other countries think of me now, and I’m used to this kind of treatment….. I don’t have to hold back.
“My king, that’s a rude response to a reinforcement from an ally.”
“Ah, I’m sorry. …… when the mineral ants show up, I’ll need your help to deal with them. Rest assured that our country will pay for your accommodations.”

At Kaiser’s words, the king shows the bare minimum of courtesy. This is not the kind of response one would expect to a prince of one country, nor from an ally who has come a long way to reinforce an allied country. If that’s the case, it’s just as well.
“Thank you very much. Now then, if you have nothing in particular in mind, may I go sightseeing in Dwell, or visit the market?”
“Nn…… yeah, you can do whatever you like. I’m busy and I’m terribly sorry, but I must get to work soon.”
With those words, my audience with the king, who had lost interest in me, was over, and we left as if we were being driven out.
“Hey, Grace….. maybe we should just destroy this country.”
“Calm down. This is how I was originally treated.”
“Master…… I agree with Vigna-sama…… but do you have any ideas?”
I left the king’s room and calmed Vigna, who was about to pull out her magic bayonet next to me. Well, I didn’t think it would be this bad, but honestly, it was to be expected.
“I had already made my word to the king. I’ve been given permission to go sightseeing. So if I happen to serve the dwarves something they like and they like it more than the current king, there will be no problem, right? Because he said I can do whatever I want! And we know enough about the effects of potatoes from the village earlier. Hahahaha, I’m going to pull out the best and brightest!”
“You’re the one who brought them with the intention of doing so in the first place…..”

And I have a letter from Bowman to the dwarves. Negotiations will go well. I don’t care if the dwarves like Asgard more than Dwell.
Now we just have to see how we can facilitate an audience with the dwarves……
“Thank you for your hard-work, Grac-sama.”
“You look as I expected.”
Ein and Gimli were waiting in front of the steam car. They must have wanted to say this.
“Yes, we’ve been given the best welcome ever. So, you know, the Dwarves……”
“Grace-sama, if you would be so kind as to meet the other king of Dwell?”
“I’m all set, I hope.”
So we decided to follow Ein.
