Personnel for the Ancient Ruins Protection Committee

“Cluck-cluck.”

Lord Gerberga jumped out of my arms and returned to Luchila.

He flew up to Luchila’s shoulder and gently pressed into her cheek.

“Thank you, Lord Gerberga.”

“Cluck.”

And then Serulis hugged both of them.

“Yes, yes.”

Serulus nodded satisfactorily to herself.

“Do you have to wait until you’re an adult to start restoring the tribe?”

“Yes. I think so.”

“I will help you when the time comes. Don’t worry.”

“Thank you.”

Luchila wiped away the tears and smiled.

Still, what exactly did you have to do for this restoration?

Was it about the land? Or blood relatives?

In any case, it was clear that Lord Gerberga was incredibly important to it.

I should probably tell Eric now, so he could ensure that the land would be reserved for them.

The rest could be dealt with later.

Milka laughed and said,

“Is that why you didn’t want to take a bath? Because you would have to take your clothes off?”

“…Yes.”

“I see. We all thought you just hated baths!”

Milka said as she slapped Luchila repeatedly on the back.

“We were worried that you liked being dirty!”

“Actually…I like baths.”

“I see. I’m so glad you don’t like being dirty.”

I don’t think anyone actually likes being dirty.

But I understood what she meant. It was the opposite of someone who was obsessively clean.

“Well, now that we know the truth, you can bathe with us!”

“Yes! That is only right!”

s.h.i.+a and Kathe said. And so they all went to the bathing room together.

Only the old men and beasts were left.

“…To think that Luchila was a girl. Did you suspect anything, Goran?”

“Not at all. It’s surprisingly hard to tell, you know.”

“Huh…”

We sighed.

s.h.i.+a and Nia’s noses aside, even Serulis had realized it.

It made me wonder if my observation abilities were quite low.

As Goran and I drank wine, Grulf came and rested his face on my knee.

Tama was sitting right behind him.

Lord Gerberga came to rest on my shoulder.

“Ruck. You were always so popular with animals.”

“Really? Well, maybe you are right.”

“Tama, come over here.”

“Woof.”

Goran called Tama over and tousled his fur.

After some time, the girls returned.

“Ruck. We should take a bath as well!”

“Indeed! We can take our food and drinks with us.”

“That’s a great idea!”

And so we headed to the bathing room. Grulf and Lord Gerberga followed after us.

Tama didn’t like to bathe, and so he followed after Philly.

We drank in the tub and talked.

“I know that I said that I would help, but what do you think needs to be done about Luchila’s tribe?”

“I don’t know. Shouldn’t you just let Eric handle everything?”

“…I guess…”

“Gahaha!”

Drinks always tasted better once you had nothing left to worry about.

When I went to the dining room with Grulf the next morning, Kathe was there waiting.

She looked very happy for some reason. Her wings were moving.

“What is it? You seem to be in a good mood.”

“Yes. I want you to look at this.”

So saying, Kathe spread out a large sheet of paper onto the table.

“What is it?”

“It’s an organization chart for the Ancient Ruins Protection Committee.”

“Huh.”

She was a very determined dragon to bother to make such a thing.

I wasn’t sure about Eric, but Goran and I would never have made it.

“Let’s see it then…”

There were several departments with a chairperson who sat at the top.

There were t.i.tles and names underneath.

“Wait a minute.”

“What is it?”

“What is it? Why am I the chairperson?”

“Why not? You are perfect for the part.”

“I had thought that you or Eric should do it.”

“But Eric and I are rulers already. It is an alliance between our two countries, so one cannot have more power than the other, can they?”

She was right.

There shouldn’t be a situation where one of them was above the other.

“That being said, I’m also the Grand Duke of the kingdom of Mendilibar. Wouldn’t that give our country the upper hand?”

“But you are a Hero that surpa.s.ses boundaries of country or even race. The dragons should not mind.”

“…I don’t know about that.”

“…If you want, I could give you the t.i.tle of Honorary Wind Dragon Grand Duke…”

“No, I don’t want that.”

Kathe had asked us about personnel the previous day.

And we had said that she could do whatever she wanted.

So it didn’t seem right to dismiss everything she had decided.

If I was going to do that, then I should have spoken up in the beginning.

“I see… So what is this… Chief Advisor Lord Gerberga?”

“The G.o.d Fowl. Of course he should be the Chief Advisor.”

Kathe was the General Secretary and Eric was the chief of the Political Bureau.

I didn’t know what it was that they would be doing, but I guess it didn’t matter.

There was also Goran, Chief of the Adventurer Bureau and Philly of the Alchemy Bureau.

“And why is Milka the Secretary General?”

“Because I talked with Milka yesterday and discovered that she is a genius.”

“That’s very keen of you.”

“Yes. And so I had to give her some office.”

“I see.”

Personally, I didn’t even know what the difference between a General Secretary and Secretary General was.

But if this is what Kathe wanted to do, then so be it.

I pretended that I didn’t see Grulf’s mysterious office, which simply read, ‘Wolf.’
