“We must inform Earl Elvis. Who should I send as a messenger?”

King Azpearl was thinking out loud.

“In that case, William and I can go and come back.”

Layla said.

“Hn?……….. Why?”

“It’s my sister’s fiancé, right? I want to see him.

Of course, I don’t have any objection, I just want to congratulate her.”

“……….That’s unfair.”

“Ha?”

William let out a strange sound.

“It’s always my sons and their wives that go out for trips while I’m stuck here…….

It’s unfair!”

“Father………..what are you saying?”

What will we do if the king leaves the royal capital?”

“I get it, I get it…………. but it’s unfair!”

“………But you do have work right? Father.”

“You have work as well, right?”

“I don’t have any territory so it’s easy for me.”

“Guh…….what the………..

William, you stay here at the royal capital in case of emergencies in case something happens to your brothers right?”

“But I won’t just sit on the side.”

William argued.

“……….I’ve decided. I’m coming too………..”

“Ha?”

William and Layla both had an expression that said ‘What are you saying!?’

“I’m going too. Definitely!

I don’t care about the work. I need some refreshment.”

“Father in law………..that’s impossible, right?

You can’t go unless the civilians and military officers agree right?”

“Conversely, I can go if they agree.”

“That’s………….true.”

“Fufu…………. since it’s decided, let’s act immediately.”

King Azpearl urgently called for the civilian executives and the military officers.

Both William and Layla seemed to think that he was a troublesome guy.

The military officers and the civilian executives were all gathered in the hall.

They were all wondering about what was going to be told to them.

The 3rd prince and his concubine Layla were sitting next to each other.

King Azpearl opened the door to the hall and entered inside.

“So all of you have gathered.”

He took his seat.

“Yes! Since it was an emergency call from your majesty, we’ve all gathered immediately.”

“Then let’s begin.

This time it’s about me.”

“About your majesty? Did something happen?”

One civilian executive asked.

“Yeah. That’s right. How should I put this………

It’s not about my physical condition or a war. I just………………please give me a vacation!”

“YES??”

Everyone at once was making an expression that said ‘What is he talking about?’.

William and Layla expected that.

“…………..Your majesty….what…………what may be the reason?”

Another civilian executive asked.

“The granddaughter of Earl Elvis got engaged.

The 3rd prince and his wife Layla will be going to congratulate them, I’ll go too!”

“……………….The 3rd prince and princess Layla are already going

……………Moreover, it’s the granddaughter of your vassal

…………………..Besides it’s not even a wedding ceremony, just an engagement………..”

“………….What? It’s okay for the 3rd prince and princess Layla to go?”

“The Elvis house is the family home of princess Layla.

Lady Alice is the younger sister of Princess Layla right?

It’s okay for both of them to go.”

“And me?”

“Why do you have to go?”

Another civilian asked. No longer willing to add honorifics.

“No, just to give my blessings.”

“Why does the king himself have to go?”

“I want some refreshment!

It’s always my sons and the princesses that go………I want to go on a trip too!”

The real intention spilled out.

“No.”

“WHY!?”

“If the king moves, the 1st civilian executive knight, 2nd commander knight, and the imperial guard squad will have to move. That will be perceived as a threat by other countries and it may lead to war.”

The 1st civilian executive knight, 2nd commander knight, and the imperial guard squad nodded.

By the way, at this time, William was discussing the gifts that they could take as a gift.

“Moreover, it takes 0 days to reach the Elvis house.

It’s an 18-day round trip…..If you leave the royal capital for 20 days, it will hinder your work.

It may even stop the administration of the country.”

The other executives and other people nodded.

“Then……..I’ll definitely return in 11 days. How about it? Can I go?

The soldiers don’t need to move since I’m not going for war. How about only the royal garrison come with me?”

“………………….Do you want to go that badly?”

The first civilian executive to ask a question sighed.

The 34th King of Azpearl was able to make sound political decisions, had the power to act, and listened to his people.

He also had a strong affection for his vassals he understood humanity and was recognized by all as a masterpiece.

He rarely acted like a child and bothered anyone.

Right now he was acting like one.

“I want to go out too………..”

The King of Azpearl was acting like a spoilt child…………..right now he was just a spoilt brat.

He had his shoulders down and looked melancholic.
