【 【 “...... Uh, what exactly do you know?!”
“I don't know. I was just told by the princess to say that. It was effective, wasn't it? Follow me and you can enter the castle.”
“...... Understood. I'll go with you.” 】 】
。。。。。
~Inside, the Theater~
“So, this is how it was, I was wondering why I couldn't find it even though it was agreed upon.”
Old Man Rom said.
“How did Miss Priscilla know?”
Otto asked Priscilla.
“With the way he is, I could have guessed with my intuition.”
Priscilla said while fanning herself.
“Is this... why Subaru was with Miss Priscilla at that time?”
Emilia whispered.
In her impression, when Subaru broke into the ceremony, Priscilla was standing next to him.
—
【 【 “This is... what should I say...”
“I know, brother. I know what you're going to say when you see this.”
The two looked at each other, pointed at the extremely luxurious dragon carriage in front of them at the same time, and said in unison:
“Nouveau riche.”
Al brought Subaru to Priscilla's dragon carriage, which was decorated with many ornaments.
“... To make us wait so long. Such rudeness will come at a great cost.”
Priscilla said.
The two got into the carriage and headed towards the royal capital. 】 】
。。。。。
~Inside, the Theater~
“Ah, it seems like I can't hide it anymore... No, there's nothing I can hide, it's just that others won't believe me if I say it.”
Al said casually.
Then, in the picture, a conversation that shocked everyone except Al and Priscilla appeared.
—
【 【 After a simple conversation with Priscilla, Subaru asked Al:
“Even though you only have one arm, you're quite nimble.”
“Because I've lived with one arm longer than I did with two. Humans adapt, you know.”
“... Can I ask an insensitive question? When did you lose your arm?”
“Sure, because you're definitely going to be curious. This is the so-called baptism of the other world. For brother, this is none of his business.”
“... Huh?”
Subaru was speechless, and then Al continued:
“What's wrong, hey, didn't you realize? For my brother, I'm the only companion who can share his troubles.”
“... Ah. Wait... Wait. You said we could share our troubles... You, no, really?”
“It's not strange to find it hard to believe. I also doubted my ears yesterday. Brother, you said something yesterday that only exists in our hometown... I haven't heard it for eighteen years.”
“Eighteen?!”
“That's right. It's been eighteen years since I was summoned here. I lost my arm at the same time... when I was about the same age as my brother is now.”
“You... know... the reason?”
“Are you asking about the reason I lost my arm, or the summoning? As for my arm, it was a mistake I made when I was too young. As for the summoning... I'm not sure yet. I haven't actively looked for the reason I was summoned to this world... I've already done my best just to survive.”
“... Uh.”
Subaru looked incredibly shocked. 】 】
。。。。。
~Inside, the Theater~
“Ah, I can't hide it, I can't hide it. That's how it is, Lil' bro and I are from the same hometown, from a country called Japan on Earth.”
Al casually pretended to cross his arms, as he couldn't actually cross his arms with his severed arm.
“This is truly—interesting.”
Roswaal narrowed his eyes and looked at Al with interest.
“Oh? Aldebaran, if that's true, then...”
Anastasia smiled with a foxlike gaze and stared at Al.
Since the things Natsuki brought from his hometown are so commercially valuable, Al might also have many of these things, and even if not, his world's business model is also very valuable for reference.
“Mr. Al. If possible, could you tell Rem what Subaru-kun's world is like?”
The two Rems were very curious about Subaru-kun's world.
Although they saw a place similar to a store in Subaru-kun's world when they first came to this space, there were still many things they didn't understand.
“Hmph, Subaru has told Betty many things from his world.”
Beatrice put her hands on her hips.
“Oh my goodness. Ask one by one, come one by one.”
Facing the crowd that swarmed him, Al had to maintain order first.
—
【 【 “We've been waiting for your arrival, Lady Priscilla.”
They successfully arrived at the royal capital.
They walked to the palace, and then a silver-bell-like voice of surprise sounded.
“... Subaru?” 】 】
。。。。。
~Inside, the Theater~
“Ah... This... I'm a little afraid to look down. Will the young man have a rift with her because of this?”
Felt said.
“He's clumsy, doesn't know how to read the atmosphere, and continues even if he offends someone. Although Natsuki-san is still a bit like that now, it seems like it was especially serious before...”
Otto said.
“This big guy can probably understand. The boss wants to help her, but on the other hand, the other party feels that the boss will definitely cause trouble and won't let him join. Even though he begged like this, the boss still forced his way in.”
Garfiel said.
“And ah, this scene is easy to misunderstand, right? Not only did the young man force his way in, but that guy Priscilla was also standing next to him.”
Felt said, looking at this scene on the screen.
—
【 【 “Why are you staring at my servant, half-baked?”
Then, Priscilla did something that was even more likely to cause misunderstanding.
She hugged Subaru from behind.
“What are you saying... Let, let go! Emilia-tan will misunderstand!”
“Oh my—oh my, it's Lady Priscilla. This time my servant has caused you trouble. I didn't expect him to be protected by you when he got lost in the city... It's truly rude.”
Roswaal intervened.
“... Why?”
“Uh...”
Emilia squeezed out the word “why” painfully.
“How did you... No, why? Why is Subaru here?”
Emilia pressed.
“Well, it's a long story... However, if you trace it back to the end, it can be said in one sentence...”
“Don't joke. I told Subaru, didn't I? Don't you remember?” 】 】
。。。。。
~Inside, the Theater~
“Oh—this. Miss Barielle, I'm a little curious, why did you do that?”
Anastasia asked.
“What do you mean? Forget it. Whatever you mean, does these things for fun, thinks it's fun to bring the half-baked servant to the scene, and thinks it's fun to let the half-baked witness her servant's physical contact with.”
Priscilla smiled.
“Subaru is not my servant!”
Emilia said sternly and seriously.
“Wait, it seems like it's about to start.”
Otto said quickly.
【 【 “... It seems everyone is here. Next, the members of the Sage Council will enter.”
Along with this clear voice, the ceremony officially began. 】 】
。。。。。
(Translator-kun: I will start first. While I disagree with Yuriusu's lecture to Subaru about knighthood in the coming chapters, I do agree with how he defused tension—preventing other knights from resenting Subaru for what they perceived as an insult to their code.)
