Chapter 11: They didn’t see me off and I wasn’t allowed to eat breakfast

If I go to a knight academy in this country, it’s unlikely that I’ll be supported by the royal family. It’s even possible that I’ll be detained or assassinated, and my secrets are still dangerous, so going to the neighboring country may also be good.

I’ve taken over the body of Luke, who died in an accident, but I have no real family in this world. I have emotions that are triggered by my memories, but I don’t think it’s good to be influenced too much.

This father is willing to release me to a neighboring country and throw me away with de facto annoyance, so this may just be the right opportunity to break my shackles.

“Luke, you may be dissatisfied, but this is an exchange between nations. Play your role as a child of the royal family to make up for this blunder … I’m sorry, but you’ll have to leave for the Kingdom of Forrell early tomorrow morning.”

“Tomorrow! No matter what that’s too sudden.”

I was thinking of accepting this story from him when he said something about an exchange between nations. However tomorrow, that’s terrible. I felt my positive feelings for this person start fading … In this world, marriage is thought of as a nobleman’s duty.

Anyway … doesn’t this person worry about me doing something over there? It would be an international problem If I did something, such as looking into the bathroom of noble girls from another family? So far, Luke has been peeking for fun, right? It wasn’t a big problem since it was the bath of our own vassals, but it’s a pretty bad act in this world with a high sense of chastity, isn’t it?

“It seems that hurrying things is partly due to the curriculum of the magic department that you’ll be going to.”

“You said I don’t have enough points for transfer? Can I still attend the magic department of the neighboring country?”

“Because the total number of aristocrats is different compared to this country. For the Kingdom of Forrell, you have a decent amount of magic power, and if you can read and write, anyone can enter if they pay the fees.”

It seems that it’s academic level is much lower than the one in this country….

It doesn’t seem like we’re getting married right away, but the other person worries me … Otherwise, I’m eager to leave and go to the magic department over there and start gaining strength.

“What kind of girl is my partner?”

“Of course you’ll be curious …. The report says she’s a beautiful girl … she hasn’t appeared in social circles at all so we don’t have any concrete information or pictures. She’s going to the same school so when you get there, you’ll know, but there’s only rumor-level information about her being beautiful and wise … “

There’s no information about the person you’re sending a prince to marry? No matter how suddenly it was decided, it’s not possible.

I think he’s hiding something, but at this time he may just want to get rid of me so he’s fine with anywhere.

Considering my rare attributes, I think there are quite a few houses in this country that want me, even if it’s just as a breeding horse… probably.

“Alright … I understand. I want to organize my luggage, so could you remove this [Magic bracelet]?”

“I won’t remove the bracelet until I hand you over to the other side … I won’t let you run away. You’ll leave the country tomorrow. You can’t take anything other than spare clothes and your equipment. I’ll give you 100 million Jennys. I’ve prepared 1 million Jennys to start with. You should buy all the missing items over there. Also, when you graduated from the Dragoon School, I thought I’d give this to you. Take it with you … “

I was given a sword … It looks the same as the sword my father gave as a graduation gift when Jail graduated.

At that time, I thought that only my brother would be favored again …

“Father, you’re giving me this Mithril sword?”

“When Jail graduated, I had the same sword prepared for each of you brothers. I planned to gift you yours at your graduation, but I’ll give you now … When you get Married and join the house over there, erase the royal family emblem. “

The lost feelings for this person have rekindled!

A high-purity Mithril sword with the emblem of the Wolg royal family.

It’s a gem that won’t be embarrassing no matter where you put it.

“Thank you, Father!”

This case seems to have been caused by what I’ve been doing so far.

The maids and guards who serve the royal family are terrible to me. I decided that it wouldn’t be better for me to transfer to a knight academy in the other country, so I agreed to go there without any hesitation.

In the end, I wasn’t able to remove the [Magic Bracelet] … It was said that the only personal belongings I could bring were spare clothes and equipment, so it took little time to prepare my luggage. I put a set of compounding tools I had prepared secretly in a wooden box.

There are a lot of good things in my [subspace warehouse] … There was also a compounding tool, but if Luke died at the time of my reincarnation, it’s possible that all the contents of the [Subspace Warehouse] were thrown out.

It’s the default of this world that all the contents of [Subspace Warehouse] are released at the time of death.

“Did I die once?” I can’t say anything strange … It’s safer to keep silent cause I can check it when this bracelet’s removed.

* * *

The next morning, I woke up before the sun had risen …

“… what? Jail brother?”

“Oh, good morning Luke …”

Apparently, Jail will deliver me to the neighboring country.

“Brother, the only baggage I have is one bag and this wooden box. I didn’t expect to be taken by a dragon instead of a carriage.”

“Luke, will you just accept this? To depart so early in the morning without eating breakfast or even telling our family …”

“I don’t, but I wonder if it can be helped this time …”

“Honestly, I’m disappointed in you father.”

Rarely, is my brother rebellious against father … but he’s staring at him with angry eyes.

“Jail, I have my own thoughts … This is still for Luke’s benefit.”

“What can be a good reason for sending Luke to be married off to the neighboring country without seeing him off or even telling his mothers and sisters!”

“Brother, it’s okay. He chose you so I won’t run away.”

“That’s right. And, to take a horse-drawn carriage to and from here,  r would take about 10 days. Please understand my little consideration.”

“Maybe so, but still…”

“Brother, it’s easy to get swept up by father … He chose you as an escort because you can be used to shackle me so that I won’t run away. Rather than being considerate of me, If I run away with this, you who was assigned this escort mission will be blamed. He’s worried that I’ll run if it was someone else so brother was chosen. “

“That’s why !?”

“No … well, that’s also … Luke, don’t say it even if you know …”

“I’m a little angry. I wanted to say goodbye to Chiruru and my sisters.”

“I’m sorry. I’m afraid you’ll run away cause you’ve run away from home so many times. That’s why you were quarantined to your room, and I didn’t let anyone see you. Your actions have made me do this. Jail, don’t take off his handcuffs until you send him to the Duke’s family. This is my decree as king, not as a father. Luke, please just follow quietly this time … …. The antics that you’ve done previously can become a problem later, even if it’s a vassal state. “

“If you’re so worried, you shouldn’t choose me the problem child … that? Is my brother the only one who’ll be escorting me? To send the crown prince on a mission to another country alone, isn’t it dangerous ?”

“It might be if it was other countries, but there’s no problem cause the neighboring country is like a relative. Well, this time I wanted it done in secret, so I decided to leave it to the reliable Jail. There is also danger if you were moving on the ground. But it’s unlikely that you’ll be attacked while you’re on the move with a Drake. “

Demon beasts do not attack for fear of dragon-type drakes, and bandits are unlikely to have dragons … Moving in the sky with dragons is safer than walking around in the city.

It seems that my father was afraid that my mother and sister would try to stop me from leaving, No doubt they would.

Since he doesn’t know if the information might leak from a knight, it seems that only three people, my father, my brother, and the prime minister, know about this matter.

I put my luggage, dowry and other items in my brother’s [Subspace Warehouse], and we set out for the Forel Kingdom on a dragon.

The only one seeing me off was my father, a lonely departure that I couldn’t think of for someone going to be a son-in-law.

At least, let me eat a decent breakfast! I think while Indignant, biting hard bread on the dragon.

“Ni san, it’s terrible that we can’t eat breakfast, isn’t it?”

“Oh, I can’t really understand what father is thinking this time around. I’m angry too, but he doesn’t hate you. You know that right? “

“Still … I feel like I was abandoned by my parents.”

“In a sense, the marriage of aristocrats is like this … There may be some calculations as a country. This marriage story seems to have something to do with the king over there rather than the duke’s house though …”

“Is that so? Well, even if I stay in this country I’ll feel uncomfortable… I’ll put up with deportation for now, but … they could have at least let me eat rice before sending me out.”

“I can only say that you’re the son-in-law sent out by the country … You can do it if you try. Rice isn’t so important …you’re already said to be an “orc prince”, so don’t worsen your position by going too far. “

It wasn’t until my brother told me that I noticed it, but it seems that I really have an eating disorder … The effect of my memory is terrifying.
