"Well, I drove things around the village but found out I got lost to the nearest town."
"Why can you try?" yell Souma.
Risela had just returned to the store and told of her experience when she saw her daughter and maid who had a face of difficulty.
"Did something happen? Oh, Tako you look cute."
This person was unreliable, Souma thought inwardly before finally asking Anna who was on duty in the delivery temporarily and putting Risela in the shop alone.
He thought of having a courier ahead of him but it could be chosen later.
In order to save the king, Souma will go to the capital he has also tied Seril with a rope and clothes belonging to Risela so that it can be interrogated by royal knights later. Souma sat beside Celestrial as well as in front of Seril inside the carriage while Sebastian pulled the restraint rope and they started to leave the village.
Along the smooth path they finally found themselves in front of a large city that became the capital of the Diamond kingdom.
The low bowed guards gave way for their carriage to get to the front of the palace gate, Souma had left this place a long time ago and after all this time he had returned here there was certainly no heartwarming nostalgia in there.
Sebastian handed Seril over to be taken to prison before the trio went to the king's room, where the man lay unconscious.
"What about my father?"
Souma used his appraiser skill and found the problem quickly.
"Hmm. I think he was indeed exposed to poison, this poison was taken from the scorpion's tail, whoever did it they were quite experts in their field."
Scorpions usually live in desert areas, in addition to difficult to find them the animal is also very tough to beat.
The uninterested Sebastian now takes a lot of interest in Souma.
"How can you heal your majesty?"
"It's easy for me."
Souma took out a bottle from his storage magic, it was not a potion that he often sold but seemed smaller than anyone.
"What's that?" they both have the same question.
"This is Exilir, I made it from sacred lotus leaves extracted with some other herbs."
"Holy string?" sebastian's face paled, it was said that the lotus could be obtained after penetrating the territory of the fairies, fairies hate humans so much that even if someone stepped foot there they would instantly die.
How can a known slacker do it.
No, he fought so hard that it made sense.
Souma let Sebastian get busy with his own thoughts while he gave his Exilir to the king, his body began to shine and then he-the king opened his eyes.
"Dad."
The two embrace each other.
"Because my work here is done I have to go."
The king stopped Souma's steps as he grabbed the doorknob.
"Wait a minute? Did you cure me."
"That's how, ah don't worry.I'll go, instead of you worrying if I get pregnant with your beloved daughter," Souma's tone was clearly filled with sarcasm.
The king shook his head and continued.
"I've been investigating your reputation on the outside, it's weird that a hero acts like you and finds that you're just pretending you're not."
"You've only realized it now."
The king laughed.
Souma furrowed his brows, he did not need the glory received by many heroes to be honest he hated it even more when many people put their trust in him.
"Now I don't care if you want to impregnate Celestrial, but you're responsible for that as well."
"Dad? That's too fast."
Celestrial held her blushing red cheeks.
This guy didn't even show his rejection.
"You're starting to piss me off" Souma deliberately pointed out his discomfort.
"Just stay a few days in the palace, I'll host and give you a gift to thank you for saving me."
"He saved me, too."
"That's what."
"I warn you that I don't want to go to war or anything."
"Of course, I don't want to involve you with troublesome things that you don't want, but please accept this. I will always feel guilty for the rest of my life."
Seeing the sincerity of the king, Souma finally nodded in agreement. From the beginning Souma himself made others misunderstand.
If the king felt responsible because of that, Souma would obviously be much more guilty.
