Turning around, I could see Princess Hazel's still-crying face. However, her eyes turned from her hopelessness earlier to one with burning hope. "P-Please take me with you!" "..." Honestly, she'd be a hindrance if we brought her along. Her power was probably not worth mentioning, being only 12 years old. She doesn't even have the Taming System yet. However, the desire burning in her eyes told me that refusing her would be a futile thing to do. She'd probably pester me until I agreed or tag…-

"Issue a State of National Emergency! Gather all residents within the south castle town within the walls and protect them!" After a while of thinking, she finally made up her mind. It would be too late to recreate a defensive line, so they should just minimize the number of casualties and evacuate everyone as fast as possible. However, Queen Thalia knew that it was nothing but a stopgap measure. With their tamers scattered all over the place, fighting, they don't have enough hands to defend the…

"Yep, it looks perfect on both of you." Without a doubt, my instincts were correct! Especially Hekate, wearing the "Queen" outfit. Her cold gaze (simply due to shyness) and her light frown made her impression so cold that it sent shivers down my spine. "Great, with this, we can go shopping without much interruption!" I quickly offered my arms to the two, since escorting the two of them is why I made them wear such clothes in the first place. Minerva quickly grabbed my right arm tight, while Hekate…

The fact that Minerva and Hekate only came after lunchtime passed also didn't help me one bit. The reason they were late wasn't because they were "tired," but because of the preparations for welcoming the Cleaver Kingdom in two days. I already assigned that duty to Fina, and she accepted it with a bright smile on her face, claiming: "I'll make sure to give them the best welcome they'll ever see!" I was a little worried, but since she's that fired up, I guess she'll do a great job... Of course,…

Tired both mentally and physically, I decided to just skip dinner and sleep. Fortunately, the girls didn't bother me that much, so I got quite a long rest. The morning came, and I woke up as usual. After taking a short bath to completely wake myself up, I then headed to the dining area (which was usually the meeting area) and found all the girls already gathered, with lots of food arranged around the table. "Good morning, everyone!" It was a really good morning; after all, I finally gained more…

I couldn't help but frown upon hearing the news that Zeshion suddenly brought. "Isn't the date a little rushed?" I haven't even explained to the girls yet how I was about to get engaged to a 12-year-old girl. I wonder just how I would break the subject to them... Well, of course, I'm not planning to do things against the law to that girl... Wait, there's no law regarding legal age, was there...? "... Let's add it later." I noted this in my little notebook, making sure that there were no…

"... This quantity really isn't something I can handle in a day." I did my best, of course, but by the time the date was about to change, I had only finished roughly three-fourths of the pile. After all, the other guys entering and adding more documents didn't really help. I only managed to return home when the sun was already about to rise. I had no time to sleep at all. After I took a shower to refresh myself and ate dinner and breakfast together, I was ready to head out for another day in the…

The night passed peacefully, and the next day, a bunch of zombies welcomed me. It was a familiar sight, one that I wasn't missing. Fortunately, none of them had ejected the contents of their stomachs, but their seemingly sluggish movement looked so pitiful that I ordered them to visit Priestess Harumi and get healed just in case. Ember was unable to cast her portal properly, given that her vision was spinning, so I had to do it in her stead. After I left all of them but Fatima and Fina in the infirmary,…

360 A Consolation Kiss It wasn't just Ying Yue; even Wan Li and Wan Er were dragged into becoming researchers under Fatima. I thought it was a joke at first, but seeing the achievements under their profiles, I was slightly amazed. "Who would think these girls are a perfect fit as researchers?" Especially Wan Li! Due to her Xiao Bing having an innate skill, she was able to do things that others would hesitate to do. "I guess they'd have their time to shine while researching, given their…

359 Research Facility In this world, where taming monsters and using them for simple jobs is the mainstream, science is something that wasn't studied well. Rather, it wasn't studied at all. There may be things like carriages, buildings, and other infrastructure, but rather than science, they relied more on powerful monsters' skills to build them. With such a convenient way of solving their problems, it was easy to imagine why science didn't see the light of day. "So first, we need to create an…
