The Strongest Onmyoji and the Shikigami With AI are Unparalleled in Another World ~ A Second Life Properly Enjoyed Using Artificial Intelligence ~-Chapter 123 - Im Tired

After defeating Ludger, Bee-san descended slowly from the sky.

Then, it laid the princess down on the ground.

The glowing sphere that had been illuminating the area disappeared, and the surroundings grew dark.

“Yuuma-sama, are you injured?!”

Leanne rushed over while asking this.

“No injuries. I used quite a bit of power, though.”

Grand Purgatory Curse consumes an enormous amount of magical energy.

“I’m glad to hear you’re safe.”

“Flower Brain-san, shouldn’t you check on your cousin, the princess, first?”

AI-chan pointed out with a hint of exasperation.

“I-I know! … Colette, Colette!”

Leanne hurriedly crouched and began calling out to the sleeping princess.

“AI-chan, do a scan.”

“Yes.”

AI-chan touched the princess, who was lying down.

“She seems to have been put to sleep with a drug. It’s not a very strong drug, so there shouldn’t be any major issues. As for injuries… only minor scrapes. This can be easily healed with recovery magic.”

“I see. For now, that’s reassuring. Should we wake her?”

When I checked with Leanne, she shook her head.

“Let’s leave her sleeping and head back. That said, please wait a bit for my magic to recover.”

“Teleportation?”

“No, it’s that light. It uses quite a bit of magical energy. Because of it, I’m out of magic.”

“Hmm…”

“Didn’t you say teleportation consumes a lot of magical energy?”

“That was a lie. It actually consumes almost no magical energy. It’s just that I can only use it a few times a day.”

“That’s impressive… What an extraordinary skill.”

“Is there something you’re dissatisfied with?”

AI-chan looked displeased.

“That’s not the case.”

I’m not dissatisfied with AI-chan.

I just don’t fully understand it.

“That’s right!”

See, it’s cute.

“Leanne, what should we do next?”

I asked Leanne while patting AI-chan’s head.

“I will take Colette back and report to my uncle. I’m sorry, but please stay in the royal capital for a few days.”

The request is over, but there will likely be an explanation, so it can’t be helped.

“Won’t this issue become your responsibility?”

Leanne was the one who recommended Otto.

“I wonder? That will be up to my uncle’s judgment.”

Let’s see how it turns out.

“What will you do about Otto? He’s an A-rank adventurer, right?”

“Adventurers often move around, so it can be handled however necessary.”

So, they’ll just say he went somewhere else.

“For now, it’s not an issue?”

“Yes, it’s fine now. Let’s return to Colette’s room.”

“Understood.”

We decided to head back. Leanne touched the princess, so AI-chan and I also touched Leanne.

As expected, she flinched.

When we returned to the princess’s room, we entrusted her to the maid, Ana.

As Ana took the princess to the bedroom, Leanne would explain things to the king, and AI-chan and I decided to go back to the inn.

Back at the inn, I explained everything to the four people gathered in my room and then we decided to rest.

The next morning, after I woke up, we all had breakfast together.

“I was surprised that Otto was a reincarnate and a bad guy.”

Natalia said as she ate her salad.

“Is that so?”

“Yeah. I’ve never spoken with him, but he was famous for being a kind person.”

Well, that was the impression I had at first.

“......Well, I’m glad it’s resolved. It seems like we can go home now.”

“Yes...... I wonder if we made enough.”

Lily looked worried.

“Well, even if we go back, we’ll need to do some work. We don’t completely stop working even in winter, so we should manage somehow.”

“Yeah...... thanks.”

Lily thanked me and then divided the salad on the table for the little Big Spider-chan.

However, the Big Spider-chan ignored it and started eating her dessert fruits.

“Gah! My apple......”

“I’ll give you mine......”

I placed the apple from my plate onto Lily’s plate.

“Yuuma...... Natalia and Alice found good leaders, huh?”

“....My insights are keen.”

“With an apple......”

Alice looked proud, while Natalia seemed exasperated.

“Hey, Yuuma. This spider isn’t that spider, right?”

Annie asked with a smile.

“The size is different.”

“......Right.”

Annie returned to her meal.

“Well, it is Big Spider-chan.”

“I thought so...hahh... Huh?”

As Annie sighed, there was a knock on the door, and everyone looked toward it.

“Yuuma-sama, may I have a moment?”

It was the innkeeper’s voice.

“It’s fine.”

As I said that, the door opened and the innkeeper bowed.

“I apologize for interrupting your meal. You have a visitor, Yuuma-sama.”

“A visitor? Is it Leanne?”

I expected her to come, but not this early in the morning......

“No, it’s not her.”

“Not her? Who is it?”

“It’s a man...... I can’t say more than that.”

A man? Could it be Kenneth?

“Well, understood. I’ll meet him.”

“Very well. I’ll be waiting.”

The innkeeper said this and closed the door.

“What’s with that? I don’t really understand, but I’ll go see.”

With that, I stood up.

“Oh, Yuuma, we’re going to work, but you should take a rest. It must have been tough for you yesterday.”

“Are you guys going to be okay on your own?”

“You’re so worried. We have Koma-chan with us, and also......”

Natalia glanced at Big Spider-chan eating an apple.

“Well, with Big Spider-chan around, there shouldn’t be any problems. So, please help Lily out.”

“Sure.”

“Thanks, everyone.”

After hearing Lily’s thanks, I left the room.

Outside, the innkeeper was waiting.

“This way, please.”

“Alright.”

I followed the innkeeper as we walked.

When we reached the entrance, the innkeeper stopped in front of a door near the reception area.

“This is it.”

“Got it.”

Even though something felt odd, I knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

That voice......

I opened the door, feeling a bit perplexed.

Inside, the room looked like a reception room, and sitting on a sofa was the king, dressed in commoner’s clothes.

“Oh, Yuuma, sorry to bother you so early in the morning.”

The king greeted me in his usual friendly manner.

“What are you doing…?”

The king shouldn’t be sneaking out of the castle this early in the morning…
