Meanwhile, Aura was spending the night alone in her bedroom in the main building. She lay silently on the large bed, wearing thin night clothes. The AC was running. It was the blazing season, and what should have been comfortable felt almost cold to her. She rolled over on the bed and curled up lying almost like a child. Still, she soon rolled back again.

It wasn’t rare for her to sleep alone. She spent a lot of time alone when Zenjirou was in Valentia, the Gaziel March, the Twin Kingdoms, or even traveling to the Northern Continent. None of them had felt like this night did, though. Zenjirou was here, a few minutes’ walk away, if that. With another woman.

The queen put her right hand over her face as she lay on her back, letting out a sigh.

“This is...depressing.”

She couldn’t sleep. If she didn’t do anything, she’d simply start thinking about him.

“I thought I was a more decisive person than this,” she mused wryly to herself as she switched the lights on. In the white light from the LEDs, the queen stood and picked up several sheets of drake parchment from the desk and took them back to her bed. Since she couldn’t sleep, she decided to get some work done instead. It was rather disgraceful behavior in some ways that she would never show her husband.

The drake parchment held recent and important information in her own hand. With her legs stretched out over the wide bed and her back supported somewhat by pillows, she perused the document. It contained information on the current conditions on the Northern Continent along with photos from the camera. There were also notes on Lucretia’s revelations about the White Empire and the Twin Kingdoms’s connection to it, along with plans for secret meetings with the former king.

Additionally—and perhaps conveniently—there was an official request from Margarita to visit after she had heard of Völundr’s arrival in Capua. There was also, naturally, a request to use Zenjirou’s teleportation for both legs of the journey.

She had said it was urgent and that if she could not pay in money, she was willing to create a magic tool in exchange, so she was clearly deadly serious.

Zenjirou would teleport to the Twin Kingdoms and send Margarita from there. However, even a princess could not travel alone, despite her personally saying that she would do so if necessary. That meant that Zenjirou would be in the Twin Kingdoms for several days, sending a single person each day. Bruno would be included in their number. Doing things that way would minimize the number of people in both countries who were aware of it.

This would inevitably lead to the princess becoming aware of the secret meetings, but it shouldn’t be hard to obtain her silence. Margarita was uninterested in politics to begin with, entirely focused on the royal family’s craft. She was also tight-lipped. With the Northern Continent blacksmith dangling in front of her, her originally lacking interest in politics was practically nonexistent.
