“Oh, you’re here. Alim, Mika, Our apologies for calling you.”

King Rama and his retainers were at the designated location. Said location was in Mephilad castle.

“Not at all, it was no trouble,” I replied.
“Yes, we weren’t busy with anything…” Mika added.

All lies.
At this point, the two of us should have been indulging ourselves in fleshly pleasures. Inwardly, I felt nothing but dissatisfaction. But this man was the king of another country, so I couldn’t show my anger. Mika seemed to feel the same.

“I see, that’s good. To put it simple, We shall be returning to our country today, so We wanted to see the two of you one final time.”
“That makes sense.”
“Indeed, and while We are at it, We would love for you to treat us to lunch.”

He likely got a taste for my food and yearned for one more chance to enjoy it. True enough, it was noon and if talk had switched to food, I’d have offered to treat everyone here. It couldn’t be helped.

No comment about Mika and me planning to engage in such acts even before noon.

“That’s fine with me! Please go to the dining hall ahead of me then, everyone.”
“Understood!”

A 23-year-old man getting excited at the prospect of a 13-year-old girl… this probably didn’t look good from an outside perspective. Although I was used to it.

King Rama’s group, seemingly overjoyed, disappeared in the direction of the dining hall.

“Is something wrong?”

The food had been devoured in no time at all by King Rama, his retainers, and the usual people from Mephilad castle who had joined us. Either way, I was happy to see that they enjoyed it.

“Oh, this dish was so delicious, it brought Us to tears!”
“That’s good to hear!”

The plates were sparkling. They hadn’t licked them clean, so how in the world did they get them so pristine? It was a mystery.

“Oh… it is finally time for Us to part, Alim…”
“Your country is far away, so will it hard for us to meet again?”
“Unfortunately,” the foreign king replied with a sad, lonesome look.

I wasn’t sure how to react to that.

And at that moment…
“Say, won’t you become my wife, after all?”
…He repeated his proposal.

“Mrr… didn’t I mention before that there is someone I hold dear, even if she is the same gender?”
“Hrm, you did.” King Rama shot Mika a glance. “How will this work… together with Mika? If it may serve as a reason to come to the Bufura Kingdom¹, a man there can have two or more women and-”
“…No, we should leave it at this, Your Majesty. In the first place, there is no telling what my fans would do if we did this.”
“You’re right, that is a valid concern.”

We had no idea what horrors my fans might unleash if someone tried to monopolize me. For an instant, there was a look of dread on King Rama’s face.

“…King Rama, Alim and Mika aren’t planning to leave this country in the first place.”
“Oh dear, that would be another issue… Hah.”

The foreign king dropped his shoulders dejectedly at King Mephilad rubbing salt into his wounds. From King Rama’s perspective, this must’ve seemed like his last chance.

“Alim… are We allowed to stay your fan, as We were?”
“Why wouldn’t you? I don’t see the issue…”
“I see, then We shall keep rooting for you,” he replied, seemingly having regained his spirit a tiny bit.

I didn’t know why he even had to ask that. Well, he probably felt interacting with me would become harder after I rejected his proposal.

“…Also, if you don’t mind, We have a personal… no, this request concerns Our whole country. King Mephilad should hear this, too.”

He had seemingly realized something after Hanuman whispered to him, drawing the attention of everyone in the room. If King Mephilad had to hear it too, then it was likely crucial.

“Understood.”
“Hrm, so… Alim, assuming Our country’s evil god were to resurrect, would you assist Us in vanquishing it?”

He made this request while holding my gaze, exuding a completely different air than just earlier.
But isn’t that a strange request?

“Hasn’t your evil god… already been destroyed?”
“It certainly has. But evil gods have come back to life one after the other within less than a year. These affairs haven’t become large issues due to them being sealed away promptly without causing many casualties, but… it is concerning, nonetheless. What might have happened if you hadn’t been there, Alim?”

He had a point. It was weird how two evil gods, who’d been sealed for centuries, came back one after the other. And I was conveniently there to take care of them… It was easy to assume that this hadn’t been the end of it. Though on second thought, it simply boiled down to sealing them once they appeared.

“Understood. Should your evil god appear, I will assist you in dealing with the issue! Is that fine for you too, Your Majesty King Mephilad?”
“This would’ve been my request, too. You are able to deal with evil gods, so I see no reason not to send you. This concerns all of Anazumu, not a single country.”
“As he says…”

The king had also sent me to Yggdrasil, when Surtr appeared there.

“Our apologies, King Mephilad, Alim… The chance of that happening should be miniscule.”

After apologizing to us and dropping a line that most definitely raised a flag, King Rama took his entourage and left towards his homeland while waving at me frantically.

…Now that he’s gone, Mika and can finally go back to being intimate in peace. Well, before that, we should pay Karua a visit, seeing we’re at the castle already. We can probably continue where we left off tomorrow… Phew.
