History of the Greatest Territory Design - Episode 404
404fury. Side story: Workaholics are in trouble. (1)
“majesty. Don't you know that from now on, you have to stay in the training camp properly for two months??”
“yes.”
“But what is this??”
“this?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Lloyd nodded..
King Alicia's office desk.
He pointed at the documents placed on top of it..
King Alicia slightly raised one eyebrow as if it was no big deal..
“This is a schedule that organizes Jim's schedule for today..”
“Yes, I am well aware of that, Your Majesty..”
“But what is the problem??”
“This schedule. Why is the space not visible??”
“That's because the chamberlain wrote it and posted it like that..”
“No, that's not it.…….”
“Otherwise?”
“I'm asking why your highness's schedule is so tight that you don't even see a chance to insert a needle..”
“Hmm, isn't the reason simple??”
King Alicia shrugs..
He responded as if it was really very natural..
“Because Jim has a lot of work to do. So the schedule is tight. But this is not that special to Jim..”
“then…….”
“Jim is like this every day..”
“Every day, you mean??”
“Yes.”
“All day long, you mean??”
“of course.”
“What about holidays??”
“what is a holiday?”
“……Sigh.”
Lloyd wiped away his eyes..
As I talked to the King's sister early in the morning, tears naturally welled up in my eyes..
It had to be that way..
full of heart.
It was because I could feel the destruction of the two-month training camp that was currently being promoted..
‘Wow. If I do this, I’m leaving..’
Lloyd felt a premonition of the plan's impending collapse..
And I quickly summarized the situation I was in now..
‘Phew. Let's calm down. First of all, let's not panic. Let’s understand the current situation properly. therefore… … I must prevent the event that will trigger the restoration of fate phenomenon. But what is the trigger that will bring about this phenomenon of restoration of destiny? It's the King's sister's left arm. Because of symptoms of paralysis of unknown cause. In the end, I'm going to lose that arm. Then your sister turns black. He will become a tyrant and cause chaos..’
I had to stop it.
To that end, he had proposed a training camp for two months to the King's sister..
‘Because I have to pass on the old ways of thinking. If you use that mental technique properly, you will probably be able to heal the King's sister's left arm. Then, this restoration of fate can be prevented in advance..’
Thanks to you, I had to work very hard..
He said he worked hard to persuade the king..
I was barely able to start my two-month training camp..
Fortunately, we successfully overcame the expected concerns and opposition from those around us..
‘Yesterday at the Noble House, I proved that I am a sword master. It was recognized that I was fully qualified to be the King's sister's sparring partner. And my sister officially announced a two-month training camp..’
that was yesterday.
Until then.
No, until last night.
The plan is half a success.
The only thing left to do is to train hard in the camp..
He was so confident and confident that he planned his own pink(?) training plan..
But now I see it?
‘No, sister, why is your schedule like this? This is divided into 10-minute increments: interview, report, attend meeting, audience, banquet, review and presentation of agenda, interview again, review of documents, meeting again... … Is this today’s schedule? Not for a month?’
It was a very tight schedule..
If we had to compare?
It was like teaching a college major full-time from the first class in the morning to the last class in the evening, no, even at night, without a single lecture..
I couldn't quite believe it when I saw it..
So this stupid question naturally came up..
“Your Majesty, this… … Is this really the schedule for today??”
“of course. Wasn’t it too early earlier?.”
“…….”
This sister, I’m serious..
If this sister was not a sword master but an ordinary person?
I was going through a schedule every day that I would have already been sick of due to overwork or chronic fatigue..
‘Whoa. this is dangerous.’
I have to tie my hands with my sister.?
In the meantime, I had to go through that schedule one by one.?
no.
That wasn't it..
‘This doesn't work. If you spend every day like this schedule... … It's a training camp, they're equipped with shabby mental techniques, and it's all about getting out of hand..’
Literally this was difficult.
It was a very tight schedule..
No matter how much you have to tie one hand with the King's sister and stick around all day. Even if you guide and engrave the path of mana all the while,.
In the end, it was the King's sister who had to properly feel, respond, and accept it..
That was the purpose of the camp..
But no matter how I looked at it, achieving that goal while working on this schedule seemed impossible..
‘Even if you just look at cancer, this isn’t it..’
There is no point in camp accommodation like this..
Lloyd said after coming to a conclusion..
“Mmm, your majesty?”
“Say it.”
“This is a little difficult.”
“Why?”
“The schedule is too tight..”
“Does this mean that even if you engrave the path of mana??”
“yes. That's right, Your Majesty..”
This is why I feel comfortable talking to the King..
There is no need to add much explanation here..
I am able to guess this side's intentions and intentions without any hesitation..
Of course it still was like that..
“Hmm, Lloyd Frontera. I know what you mean too..”
“I am devastated, Your Majesty..”
“……Jim hasn't decided yet..”
“I truly apologize, Your Majesty..”
“Tsk.”
“…….”
“Anyway, I understand what you are saying. This probably means that training camp to heal Jim's left arm should be a top priority. Is it right??”
“It is so, Your Majesty..”
“But that seems a bit difficult..”
“……yes?”
Lloyd was surprised..
An embarrassed smile appeared on the King's sister's lips..
“No matter how important Jim's health and arms are, this schedule is for everyone in this country, not just Jim..”
Poke, she pointed at the schedule on the desk with her finger..
She said emphatically.
“Countless nobles loyal to my royal family, subjects, citizens living in the capital, and everyone born and dying in my territory are affected by this schedule. Wouldn't it be so??”
“Hey, Haona…….”
“no. This time, no matter how much it is you, I will not receive any objections. The more diligent you are, the busier you are, the more tired you are from work, the more prosperous, relaxed, and comfortable your people become. Wouldn't it be so??”
“Yes, still…….”
“Tsk. That is the responsibility and the weight of the crown placed on your shoulders. But are you putting off that responsibility? Does that make any sense??”
“Your Majesty, just…….”
“just?”
“It will take just 2 months. Why not just leave state affairs to competent servants for the time being??”
“no it doesn't work.”
“…….”
“That will never happen.”
“…….”
Wow, this sister cuts more like a knife than I expected..
Lloyd felt embarrassed inside..
At the same time, I realized.
‘This sister was a workaholic..’
He is also a serious workaholic..
He was not the type to focus on work just for personal success, fame, and wealth..
In some ways, he was the most fearsome and resolutely diligent type, armed with a sense of duty to sacrifice his life for the public good of the society in which he worked..
‘Write it. If I do this, I'm really leaving..’
Somehow, I had an ominous premonition that if things continued like this, I would not be able to get my teeth back, and it bloomed as thickly as a cauldron of bone broth that had been boiled for 50 years..
But don't you know the darkness of this side?.
The King just gave orders to us with a solemn expression..
“It's Lloyd Frontera. Study and think further.”
“yes?”
“This is a trick that will allow me to stably pass on the shabby mind techniques to Jim even while working on this schedule..”
“…….”
Well, I'd rather tell you to play the recorder while running a marathon..
Or eating soup without spilling a drop while bungee jumping?.
‘Wow. driving me crazy.’
I really can't do it..
This is something.
Special measures are needed.
While this side is feeling desperate.
“Well then, let’s start with the first schedule. Follow me.”
The King's sister left the office.
The person whose hands were tied to her was also dragged away..
And so, the hectic schedule began..
♣
The day passed by in a hectic manner..
Deep night has finally arrived.
“……Huh, huh, huh.”
“Girl, are you okay??”
“……Huh, huh, huh.”
“It's not okay.”
“So, I apologize..”
Lloyd took a deep breath..
It was so hard that I felt like throwing up..
No, I felt dizzy..
“Whoa, whoa.”
Fluttering, I threw myself on the bedroom chair..
It was a very tiring and hectic day..
‘therefore… … Today, I attended five meetings while being dragged around by the King. There were so many meetings and audiences and such that I stopped counting them. Even the banquet took place with two bangs. I receive a lot of reports. And as a bonus, we had an emergency meeting at the end..’
That's all that happened today.
But what's even more surprising is.
“Tsk. He is indeed a weak and delicate person. Could it be that I was so exhausted just because I had a busy day??”
“…….”
“This is just a daily routine for Jim..”
“…….”
I feel like my whole body is becoming gloomy..
That depressing feeling grew even more dramatic when I saw the pile of documents occupying the enormous desk in one corner of the bedroom..
“majesty.”
“Say it.”
“No way, that document is here..”
“You know me well. Is it because I already tried it??”
“……Please save me.”
“Did he say he was going to kill you??”
“That's not true…….”
“All you have to do is sign the papers.”
“Is this something I really have to do??”
“Because that makes me happy.”
“…….”
It tastes bad!
This is truly in bad taste!
Lloyd wanted to shout out loud..
However, I couldn't help but swallow dry saliva as I looked at the King's sister smiling brightly..
“If you do, I will wash my luggage for a while and then come back. In the meantime, please change your clothes too..”
“……Yes, Your Highness.”
The string that ties each other's hands all day long.
There are only a few moments when you can solve it.
So, you should wash your face and change into your pajamas now..
Lloyd thought as he quickly changed into the pajamas provided by the royal family..
‘I guess it can't go on like this..’
I really can't do it..
Today, while I'm going through that crazy schedule.
I was barely able to engrave the king's sad feelings into my sister's heart..
Even if I try to direct the mana to her left arm,.
I quickly lost concentration due to my busy schedule..
The King's sister, who was directly handling the schedule, was also unable to properly concentrate on the mana induction of the dark mind technique..
‘It can't be like this. There is no meaning in camp.’
There has to be a way somehow.
The King's crazy schedule needs to be shortened somehow..
What should I do to do that?.
After returning home.
I wash my face in the pure gold washbasin brought by the maids..
Lloyd brought out all his worries, thoughts, tricks, and ideas..
I gathered them all together, shoved them into my brain, and shook them..
Various strategies and.
A lot of tricks and.
More tricks were combined.
Among them, we eliminated all those that were not feasible..
I also brushed off plans that would have resulted in the King's sister being murdered..
Then, the only idea left was to get the king's sister a few hits to the solar plexus..
‘good. Let's do this.’
Lloyd decided.
Just then, the King's sister, who had changed into her pajamas, returned to the bedroom..
“…….”
This is my first time seeing something like that..
I mean, I've never even thought about wearing bright pink silk pajamas..
But now that I think about it, the pajamas I'm wearing are somehow similar to those.…….
‘It's a set!’
Lloyd was astonished..
I realized it too late.
The blue pajamas he changed into and is wearing now..
It was a set with the King's sister's pink pajamas.!
‘This is not some kind of couple look.’
Could it be that there was an administrative error?.
Did the royal maids make a mistake?.
How dare you wear couple pajamas with the king?.
I wonder if I could get in trouble for insulting the royal family or something like that..
Tension suddenly bloomed..
Lloyd looked at the King's sister..
But the king?
“why do you do that?”
“Oh, no..”
“Hmm. Is your luggage strangely dressed??”
“Well, that's not it either..”
“But your outfit is strange..”
“……yes?”
“No, I should say weird. It's truly petty and ugly. I never thought I would look like that in these pajamas..”
“…….”
Why are you suddenly dissing people as if they are going to kill someone?.
Lloyd couldn't find an answer and just twitched his fingers..
The King’s sister’s meaningful smile deepened..
“I guess I'll have to change my royal VIP pajamas. When Jim wore it, it matched well so I didn't pay much attention to it. Tsk tsk.”
“…….”
Was it something like that?.
Were these pajamas for royal VIPs?.
‘So, the King's sister just didn't pay much attention and favored VIP pajamas..’
So that means it wasn't a couple's pajamas..
It was fortunate.
But strangely enough, I felt a little disappointed..
‘……What are you saying? am i crazy.’
Lloyd quickly shook off his delusion..
And I remembered the idea I had just a moment ago..
‘Phew. I guess that's the only way..’
We have to reduce the King's schedule somehow..
To do that, we need to change her workaholic tendencies..
Lloyd hides his desperate intentions.
I told the king.
“Hey, Your Highness Haonde.?”
“hmm? Say it.”
“yes. I am devastated, Your Majesty. Let me tell you one thing: Umm... … Before you begin signing the documents piled up here, I would like to offer you a suggestion..”
“proposal?”
“So it is, Your Majesty..”
“What kind of proposal is it??”
“Actually, I'm so tired and sleepy..”
“But?”
“But shouldn't I somehow finish signing the document your highness asked me to do??”
“however?”
“I want to shake off the drowsiness for a little while..”
“drowsiness?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“If you do it, even if it’s sparring?”
“Well, that's a bit…….”
“then?”
“Your Highness, wouldn’t you like to have some fun with me??”
“bet?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“If it is a bet, will the winner receive a reward??”
“That's right, Your Majesty..”
“Interesting.”
“I am devastated, Your Majesty..”
“So, what are you trying to wake me up from my slumber by demanding as a result of the bet??”
The King asked with a slight smile..
The atmosphere is not bad.
It's an opportunity.
Lloyd spoke clearly, measuring his timing as if he were catching his prey..
“Your Majesty, have you ever heard of palm time??”
