Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

Unless an opponent of Kino's caliber suddenly appears, I can always buy myself time to summon Icarus.

"Speaking of which... if you go to the Dragon Kingdom, you'll probably have a chance to meet Benedict... and Parkus, right?"

"Yes. My original purpose was to see Benedict."

Regarding Parkus...

Back then, Luo Qixi felt guilty about what happened.

Therefore, he wrote an apology letter to Parkus.

I'm so happy that Luo Qixi has been able to resolve her inner conflict.

But in the end, Parkus wasn't a good person.

In the Kingdom of Xilong, he wasn't well-regarded, which was infuriating.

He even considered taking advantage of Luo Qixi...

However, that didn't actually happen.

What's past is past.

It's about Lilia and Aisha.

As punishment, Pacus has been sent to the Dragon King Kingdom as a hostage.

Then again.

What exactly does Benedict like about him...?

It's really puzzling.

"Rudy, if you see Parkus, please give him my regards."

"...Speaking of which, didn't Ms. Lokishi dislike Parkus a lot before?"

"Well, after all, he wasn't exactly a likable kid."

"Then why now..."

"It's a teacher's greeting to the student. After all, Parkus is my second student."

Luo Qixi sighed.

yes……

Although Parkus is not popular.

But if you really think about it, he's still my junior.

Loki believes that as a teacher, she has a responsibility to care for Parkus.

This is understandable.

……

Ten days later.

News of the end of the war reached both kingdoms.

After some negotiation.

Ariel decided to send envoys to the Kingdom of Wanglong with the people from the three countries to discuss a ceasefire.

They called it a negotiation, but it was really just about demanding compensation.

The Kingdom of Wanglong is militarily powerful.

Therefore, Ariel has been suppressing the Dragon Kingdom economically.

This will probably cause the Dragon Kingdom to suffer a huge financial loss this time...

……

I also joined the group as one of the envoys.

The team members are all nobles and trustworthy people.

That being said.

I have nothing in common with nobles.

The journey was mostly silent.

……

We set off from the royal capital, Ars.

As for the route, let's assume we travel by carriage through the Red Dragon Mountains.

Then they arrived at the Kingdom of Wanglong.

Although it's possible to move using a teleportation magic circle, only the mercenary group's officers and those around me can use that thing.

I had no intention of letting these shady nobles know the information.

The journey was, of course, extremely boring.

Those nobles seemed to be trying to curry favor with me, after all, Ariel and I do have a good relationship.

But I didn't give them the chance to curry favor.

And so, it took about a month to move it.

I met up with the nobleman in charge of the peace talks, as well as the envoys from the three countries.

They entered the territory of the Dragon King Kingdom together.

……

Vibon, the capital of the Kingdom of Wanglong.

think carefully……

The last time I was here was when I was traveling with Alice.

It's been so long already.

Vebon...

No.

The country as a whole gives the impression of being chaotic and disorganized.

The buildings varied in height, and people's attire was also inconsistent.

The town lacks proper urban planning, and there are inns suitable for adventurers to stay near the noble mansions.

Opposite the Sword God Style dojo is the Northern God Style dojo, and behind it is the Water God Style dojo.

There was no sense of unity whatsoever, yet it was full of vitality.

This is an empire that reveres strength.

If war breaks out, even the Kingdom of Asura will be overwhelmed.

That being said.

In an economic war, they are no match at all.

……

After arriving in the capital.

After a short rest with the accompanying envoys and nobles, I immediately headed to the royal city.

Then they went to see the king.

Perhaps because my appearance has changed, the other person did not recognize me.

There's not much to say about the audience.

The king of the Dragon Kingdom sat high on his throne, engaging in a formal and methodical conversation with us.

Both sides, for the time being, maintained their aristocratic reserve...

Even so, one can still detect a hint of tension in the conversation.

The king of the Dragon Kingdom is a very imposing-looking guy.

Although he is quite old, he still exudes an astonishing sense of oppression.

Standing in front of this kind of person.

It makes people subconsciously think about what they should and shouldn't say, and to be careful with their words and actions.

Having said that…

Basically, I can leave the things that should and shouldn't be said to the nobles traveling with me.

I'm just here to make up the numbers.

Thanks to this, no one bothered me.

Although Ariel said it was possible that things might turn sour.

However, judging from the conversation, it seems unlikely that this will happen.

It took several hours in total.

The audience concluded successfully.

I didn't understand what kind of agreement was finally reached.

Basically, it's about losing money or something like that.

……

After leaving the audience room.

I went to the royal city's back garden.

It took almost no effort.

I found the girl with long, light blue hair by the lake in the garden.
