The next morning.

We’d come to the castle to report what had happened the night before. We were in a room deep in the building called the audience chamber.

Claire was speaking, and she was none too happy with me.

“I see. So after all that boasting, you were thwarted by a simple Bind skill?”

On the throne at the far end of the audience chamber, in place of the king, who was away on campaign, sat Iris.

I could hardly admit that the thief was an adventurer we knew, so I made up a fictional villain: a masked master burglar.

“Well, I’d hardly call it a complete failure! If I hadn’t been there, Old Man Alderp might be a lot poorer right about now!”

That set the nobles talking. I was surprised how many people seemed to be saying that that might not have been such a bad thing.

“…Hmm. Very well. These are the words of the great Kazuma, conqueror of the Demon King’s generals. I’m sure there’s no need to bring in a magical lie detector. Yes, this thief must have been quite the opponent.”

She didn’t exactly sound like she believed me.

Behind me, I could feel Megumin prickle at Claire’s sarcastic response. Darkness hurriedly put a stop to whatever Megumin had been about to do. Iris rose from her throne.

“Ahem… In any case, excellent work! You didn’t fail at capturing the thief—you succeeded at preventing a burglary. You deserve no blame!” Her face was red, and her little fist was clenched.

I thanked her silently.

With a disturbed expression, Claire said, “Such is the generosity of Princess Iris. You gave your word, in front of many nobles, that you would accomplish a task, and yet you failed. Normally that would warrant punishment. You should be grateful for the princess’s mercy.” She paused. “But since you failed to capture the thief, there’s no reason for you to stay at the castle. Now get out!”
