Chapter 355: With Her Majesty and Sonia

"Sorry to keep you waiting... Am I in the way?"

Sonia came, but her words and acts are odd. Or rather, natural. Because Her Majesty is sitting on my knee.

"There is no such thing. Now come here and sit."

"Eh, y-yes. Understood."

Sonia came, fidgeting. Her Majesty got down from the knee, sat beside me, and Sonia sat on the opposite side. I am caught between the top two of the Mainz Kingdom and the top two of the Eisleben tribe, and stuck close besides.

"Your Majesty, I have one question."

Slowly I asked Her Majesty.

"Whaat?"

"However far we are from the royal capital, is it all right for you to be this free?"

"Ara. I thought while we are here I would let Lord Robbie be free, and why do you say such a mean thing?"

"No. I am grateful for that. Only, I started to worry what if what Your Majesty does here travels to the royal capital. There are people who try to harm Your Majesty, so would they not be desperate to spread bad rumors of Your Majesty?"

"My. Worrying about me that much. A cute child!"

Her Majesty hugged my head and buried it in the valley of her chest. Her Majesty smells of drink too. That is why she is in high spirits.

"It is all right. I am not doing such a bad thing, and even if it is said it is not a thing that matters. There is nothing to worry about. To say it, as long as I do not spend time alone with a man in a closed room, most things you need not worry about."

Ara? Earlier I was alone with Her Majesty, yes? Was that treated as Sonia being there?

"That is so! When Her Majesty is in Eisleben tribe territory I always go together. So such bad rumors will not flow!"

Sonia said it puffing her chest, purun! This person smells of drink too.

"Her Majesty said she has never been to a town dining hall. Then while she is in Eisleben tribe territory I thought I would take her to a dining hall no matter what. In the first place she said she has never even walked around town, and I think taking her is my duty!"

Sonia made a declaration of resolve. Then she drank the drink on the table in one go! Geh, one go!

"Oh. This is good drink! I did not know this shop has drink this good! Father did not tell me. Was he hiding it! Good. From now I will come to this shop too! I will become a regular of this shop!"

Sonia’s way of speaking grew rough little by little. Did the ground come out?

Hearing that Her Majesty poured drink into her own glass on the table, toku toku toku, and tossed it, kui! in one go.

"Kuwa! Strong! Aaaaah, but it is delicious! While I am in the territory capital I will have Lady Sonia bring me every night! I decided! I decided!"

"Is that so, Your Majesty? It pleased you! Then let us come every night the two of us!! Understood. I will take you no matter what! Aaaaah what a pleasant night! Look, Lord Marieee!"

Sonia held an empty glass out in front of me. Meaning pour.

I poured, toku toku toku, into the held-out glass, and Sonia drank this in one go! Then before she thrust the glass in front of me again Her Majesty,

"Next is me!"

put out a glass, gui. One tempo late Sonia held hers out.

"Yes yes."

When I filled Her Majesty’s and Sonia’s glasses both drank in one go. Then they held out glasses again. But the bottle had already gone empty.

I clapped, pan pan, and Ann put her face out from the shadow of the curtain.

"Sorry. Another of this please."

I dangled the bottle and showed it.

"Eh. You drank all of that? Amaziiing! That drink is easy to drink but strong, so we drink it diluted, and you could not dilute it! I will bring it at once!"

Ann ran, tekete tekete. Her Majesty and Sonia had gone deredere and were talking over my head. But their tongues had started to fail quite a bit. They leaned on my shoulders and it had become a feeling of barely talking. Sonia was stroking various places on me. Over the clothes for form, but she was searching for what is under the clothes and watching my reaction. The body is drunk and the head would be sober.

The bottle Ann brought was gone half in no time, and Mama put her face out.

"Araaaa both of you have finished!"

She is truly surprised.

"Um, what happened to the Clan Chief?"

"Eh. Ah. He already went home. He said it is uncomfortable with his daughter here. He had a carriage brought to the back door and went home quiet."

"Eh? He went home?"

"Yes. Then what will you do?"

"What will I do? Even if you ask I do not know what I should do."

"Yes. When you came here you came in Lady Sonia’s carriage, so I think you will return in Lady Sonia’s carriage."

"Is that so? What do I do about that carriage?"

"No. It is all right. It is waiting out front."

What, it was waiting the whole time!? The master is dead drunk and the driver and guards wait outside still. If you say that is how it is, that is how it is. Then Her Majesty set her head on my knee and fell asleep. Sonia swayed too and had become quite dangerous.

While we talked that Sonia said,

"Ah. It is all right. I have told them I will take Her Majesty home. Ugugugu, Her Majesty said except at a time like this she cannot stay alone, u, someone, a bucket, or a washbowl... I uh!"

She had become a terribly dangerous state. Her Majesty on my knee jerked now and then. From the drink? Or because she is about to throw up?

Mama dashed, brought a small bucket, and held it out to Sonia. Sonia set her face on the small bucket and threw up, gerogero gero. Uwa wawaa I had not expected this development. Mama has a sour face.

Everyone present looked at regrettable Sonia with her face stuffed in the small bucket. A sour smell seemed ready to come.
