Chapter: 100 Disguise 2
After that, Julius and I returned to the castle and headed to the princess.
"I see. That's why you came to my place to ask for permission."
When the princess heard her story, she understood what Mr. Fine had said, said so, and closed the book she was reading.
“Julius rarely makes requests like this, and I would like to fulfill them as much as possible. He has done a lot of things up until now, but it is impossible for him to do so now.”
“…As I thought, the commotion that happened the other day was the cause.”
"Yes, father will probably say something about moving Julius by himself now."
Well, there was a big fuss about it a while ago.
It can't be helped if things continue like this until the people around her calm down.
“If that’s the case, we’ll have to start from square one again… What should we do, Julius-san?”
"I agree……"
I thought we were back to square one, so when I turned to Julius, the princess tilted her head and asked, ``What are you talking about?''
"Eh, no, because it's impossible to let Julius out now..."
"It's not that it's impossible for me to go out, I just said it's impossible for one person to go outside, right? If you bring someone with you, you can disguise yourself as an adventurer and meet her sister."
"Ah! Are you okay!?"
"Yes, what happened the other day was for the sake of that child, right? Besides, I was the one who separated Julius from his sister, so I'll forgive you for that."
Upon hearing those words, Julius shed tears and thanked the princess, ``Thank you.''
"In that case, we'll need someone to accompany Julius-san. In this case, the most suitable person would be us, but that would increase the chance of being discovered when Julius-san disguises himself."
“Yes, that’s why I will ask one of my subordinates to accompany Julius. That would be better for Julius, right? The child on the front might be suspected of having a relationship with Julius, so I will use the child on the other side. May I have it?”
"...Are you okay with using them for me?"
Julius asked, looking surprised at the princess's words.
The princess's direct subordinates are basically made up of people picked up by the princess.
Among them, there are only a few people, including Julius, who are active behind the scenes, and the others are basically doing behind-the-scenes work and gathering information.
``There's one child who was injured and can no longer work behind the scenes. I've been thinking about what to do about that child lately.''
“Princess, is it okay for me to know the back and front of that?”
“I thought it would be okay to talk to Jin-san and the others.”
As it was written in the setting materials, she is a truly amazing princess.
Because she's such a princess, I think the king worries about her and doesn't let her out of the castle much, but if that hadn't happened, the princess's pawn would have been in even more trouble by now...
"For now, I'll tell you about the accompanying person later. I'll also prepare a hideout in the capital so that Julius can move easily."
“I-I don’t have to ask you to go that far…”
"That's good. There are quite a few houses that adventurers can use together, right? If they disguised themselves like that, it would be easier for those kids to move around."
The princess said she wasn't preparing just for Julius, but Julius was grateful that she was preparing something for him that he didn't need before.
After that, we had extra disguise tools for us, so we decided to use them and were somewhat prepared.
"After that, we'll have to decide on a fake name for Julius-san. Have you come up with any good names?"
"...I think I'll name it Yuri. It's a name I have a lot of feelings for."
"Come to think of it, when you met Julius, you called yourself Yuri. Is that a pseudonym you thought of at that time?"
"I'd call it a fake name, but it's more like a nickname. It's the name Ange gave me."
I looked at Julius with a smile on his face, and when I thought about seeing Julius like this, the princess seemed to be thinking the same thing, and looked shocked.
"For now, let's end this for today."
"Yes, thank you for everything. I will continue to do my best to help the princess."
"Yes, Jin-san, thank you for doing everything for Julius."
When the princess said thank you, Julius also thanked her and the discussion for the day ended.
That night, Chloe and I were called to her room by the princess for some reason, and when we went to her room, there was a woman we didn't know who was the princess.
"Princess, what are you doing on a night like this?"
"Yeah, I thought I'd introduce you to Jin-san and the others first. This girl's name is Lilia."
"Nice to meet you, Jin-sama and Chloe-sama. My name is Lilia."
The woman who was introduced as Lilia said hello to me and Chloe while bowing, and we also returned the greeting.
I thought I heard of her from somewhere, but this woman was the one who served alongside the princess as a maid in the game.
She was a supporting character and she wasn't written in detail in the setting materials, but I guess she was one of the princess's subordinates...
After that, the only thing we were really called for was to introduce Lilia, so we left the princess's room and returned to our respective rooms.
