The Tanaka Family Reincarnates

What the Hell? [Part 4]

The army could only be mobilized by the king. The queen and the prime minister didn’t have the right to command the army.

The knights stationed at the Royal Castle were mostly also called in to the borderlands to help hunt monsters, and a part was further allocated to guard the king at the extracurricular lesson. There were only a few knights that could be deployed right away.

Now that the king and the second prince were away to the extracurricular lesson, the only one who had the authority to command the Royal Castle’s army was, dreadfully, the First Prince Maximillian.

They must have the king return as soon as possible.

There was no point in him becoming the prime minister if he just watched the Royal Capital turn into a sea of fire in a daze without protecting what he was supposed to protect.

“But, even if we keep changing horses and rush all night to Skyte, it will still take three whole days to get there.”

The knight order commander, who had a reputation for being heroic and unflinching by even the slightest things, only hummed at this time.

The fact was that it would take at least six days for the king to return. And,

“In the first place, can we take a fast horse out of the Royal Castle without arousing suspicion? Even if we can take it out, can we eventually make it in time…”

Now that there might be some of Prince Maximilian’s collaborators in the castle, the enemy might start suspecting that they had noticed something if they took out a horse to bring a message to the king.

“……”

“……”

“Ah, what should we do…”

After looking at the queen and prime minister, who fell silent at the knight order commander’s words, Rose also muttered anxiously.

As they would make Maximillian suspicious if they acted, they couldn’t act recklessly in case the other party had other moles in the castle.

All out of method, the room was filled with a stifling atmosphere.

The ninja apprentice Hue hid his presence and infiltrated the room, which had been perfectly cleared out of people, without anyone noticing.

(Woah, sure enough, everyone is at a loss…)

The country’s bigwigs had acted this precisely in line with Joshua’s prediction and reached a deadlock at the point Joshua had predicted.

“That’s why Hue should appear at this point in time,” Joshua told Hue.

Quoting Joshua, “If Rose-sama is sad, Emma-sama will also be sad. So, Hue, at that time, go deliver the letter to His Majesty.”

‘Even I also don’t want to see Emma-sama sad,’ thinking so, Hue strengthened his resolve.

A shadow appeared with a *whoosh* sound.

“Should I deliver that for you?”

“ “ “ “!!” ” ” ”

Because Hue suddenly appeared in a room that had been cleared out of people, the four were naturally surprised.

“Ah… Huey-kun?”

Rose realized that the one who appeared was the boy who delivered her the handkerchief.

Huey hurriedly put his right hand over his chest and bowed to Victoria. He remembered that Big Brother Harold told him he would get by somehow if he at least knew how to do a proper vassal bow.

“Just when did you… Ah, Commander! This boy is the one who delivered the handkerchief to me!”

Seeing the knight order commander block the boy from Victoria in a protective stance with his hand reaching out for the sword on his hips, Rose explained in a hurry that the boy wasn’t an enemy.

“How did you enter this room?”

The prime minister also asked Hue in a low voice warily.

No matter how excellent a Kingdom’s spy is, they shouldn’t have been able to infiltrate this room.

“Hehe, that is a trade secret(?), y’know. But that’s not important. I can help you take the letter to the king without alerting anyone.”

“What nonsense are you spouting!” spat the knight order commander with contempt as he observed Hue from head to toe. ‘What can a child whose height doesn’t even reach my waist do?’

“No, you geezers didn’t even notice me standing right next to you until just now! Besides, I can get to Skyte in one day…”
