CHAPTER 115 . 5: —SIDE DIANEIA— PROGRESS REPORT

3 P . M . 3rd day of the festival .
Dianeia was dealing with paperwork in her office . Then,

「The setting for the greeting will be… . all right, that should be good . Knight Captain, check it please . 」
「Ha, understood . 」

She had finally finished all the paperwork she needed to do .
All that she needed was the Knight Captain to check it and she would be officially finished .
Her last job would be greeting guests at the party tonight and dealing with any issues that popped up .

「There’s a tiny bit left but I can finally take a break . 」
「Good work Dianeia-sama . 」

Dianeia leaned back in her chair and stretched her arms and back .
She could hear the sounds of the lively celebration from outside her window .

「Thanks to Daichi-dono’s power things should end safely . Thank goodness . 」
「That’s right . Even the soldiers patrolling town haven’t reported an increase in problems . 」

When they’d heard the spirits escaped and might rampage through town, they’d nearly fainted .
But thanks to Daichi making his move, the lively town was protected .

「…… . normally there would be some monsters that come to make trouble, but this year it seems like they aren’t coming . 」
「Well, that’s obvious . Right now there are several beings with incredible magical powers . A monster would have to be stupid or confident to cause trouble . 」

The Dragon Kings and Daichi had become almost like a repellent .

…… . and that was even with the coating magic on…how surprising… .

Be that as it may, it is a good thing .

「If things go as they have been, Karen and Athena will be able to complete their objective on the final day . That would be nice if they could . 」
「Yes indeed, if we had to pull any more all-nighters then we might collapse ourselves . 」

Hahaha, the Knight Captain laughed with dark circles under his eyes .
He seemed really worn out, but he was still moving because…

「If we didn’t have Daichi-dono’s Apple Potion, then our bodies might have already gotten run down . 」
「That’s right . Just by drinking that, our sleep deprived dizziness was blown away . Just a drink of that and a few minutes rest and your tiredness is gone . It’s very popular amongst our subordinates . 」
「Haha, for real . We’re indebted to him for a great many things . 」

She needed to find somehow, some way to repay this debt .
Dianeia thought as she looked out on the town .

「Knight Captain, Princess, Please excuse me! There’s a report from the soldiers in town!」

A messenger arrived at the door .
It seems like their wish for nothing to happen would not come true .

……well, originally it was just an unrealistic wish .

Dianeia asked the messenger while completely unfazed .

「What happened?」
「We have confirmed a tornado has formed on the outside of town . 」
「A tornado?」
「Yes, and it has a lot of magic power within it . It is heading for town . 」

Wind filled with magic power…that was quite uncommon .
So it wasn’t normal weather .

But, right now there should only be one suspect .

「It’s very likely that it is the wind spirit huh?」
「That’s right . The silver lining is that it did this outside of town… . . 」

If they left it alone and it came to town, it would spread destruction .

「Send an urgent message to Athena and Karen . Also inform the soldiers on the outskirts of town . Please hurry . 」
「Ha! Roger that!」

The messenger set off running .

「For the wind spirit to appear now…it seems Karen and Athena will be able to complete their objective . 」

The Knight Captain nodded .

「That’s right . With this they’ll be able to complete their mission…I’d like it to go smoothly . 」

However, that was merely her wish .

It’d be best if she was prepared to move at any time if things went badly . She would go help them .

…… . . if it was impossible then maybe they could go to Daichi-dono’s place…

「Ok then . For now let me completely finish my duties . Have you checked the papers Knight Captain?」
「Yes, it’s done . 」
「Ok then . Let’s move . 」

Dianeia stood up from her desk and moved out . She went to finish her duties and get herself some free time .
