Harem Tales Of A Reincarnated Elf Prince Prologue 2

“Oh?… you're finally here at last"
When I opened the door to the throne room, father blurted those words out in amazement.
My father seems to have been acting as a very serious king, quite the opposite of me. He didn't indulge himself much to make children, so I being born took too much effort.
He has a moustache and a beard and he is a little plump, but he looks like he was pretty handsome when he was young.
Connecting that with a fiery red hair, which I am also of a similar color, my mother Yuzuri.
"Seeing it took a long time, it seems that you have struggled a lot, Cecil."
“That's not the case, your Majesty. I'm already used to such things.”
"Totally… even though he is a child of my own… why has he became so sloppy?"
……It is because the original was an unpopular nerd guy.
Well, I can't say anything about it.
“Why was I called specially?"
“There is something important we must talk about”
"geh…"
Oi oi, does he mean about the duties of the throne of the king?
I would like to play with women more! More so with all the elven women here being pure and beautiful! If not I was reborn in this high spec body for what!?
"You sure are having a rejecting face right now, but did you think for a moment that you would be a king eventually?”
"I was found out!?"
"I am your father. Of course I know. Well, even if I am not, it is quite easy to understand because it can easily be read in your face. Am I right, Cecil?"
“… Though it is impolite, but I agree with your majesty.”
"What's with that? Bullying me together"
"Ahahaha! We don't bully you. It is just that you can say that you are still a child"
"…and that also cla.s.sifies as bullying, father"
My father continued to talk, ignoring my muttering.
"Well, the talk of handing over the throne is not necessarily far."
"Eh?"
You may end up inheriting the throne, but you are still half-a.s.sed"
"H-half a.s.sed……"
I knew this already, but there are some things you cannot endure just like that when saying them straight to your face.
When my father is still young, he made a feat in the battle against the demons and heard that he was brought and became a king.
It would be something similar to do to me I guess.
“I guess you get it now. You understand what father wants to say, don't you?”
“Can I defeat the demons?”
“Fool. Anyway, that was the case in my age. I'm speaking of the present……other than war.”
"Then what shall I do?"
Father smiled at my question.
“It's the opposite of war”
"Opposite?"
“In short, uniting Algarde as one.”
"Even though we are of different races?"
The history of Algarde traces back to tens of thousands of years.
Among them, although some countries have formed alliances, there has never a moment that they gathered up as one.
Rather, the history of conflict is much longer.
“Can I really do what n.o.body accomplished in history?”
"Giving up now?"
"……"
“Yes, I can do it" Such a thing cannot be said that easily.
I would have escaped if the previous "I" was still living back then, but now I am a high spec elf.
I have lived in this body for 19 years. This gained me a little courage and confidence.
In addition, since I have been born as a prince, there will be times when diplomacy will be necessary.
If it's the case, I think that it is better to face it head on now.
Besides, from my father's expression…….
“Hm. you've got a nice face there.”
"……alright, father. I cannot promise to achieve it, but I will accept the challenge. So what should I do specifically?"
"The branch"
"A branch?"
A certain word came out from nowhere, making me dumbfounded.
"Each country has a large tree called King Tree. It has been protected since the ancient times by each king as a symbol of the country. It is no exaggeration to say that the country will be destroyed only when that tree dies. “
"ooh, the King Tree huh"
I know because as a matter of fact, the country of elves also has one.
“The exchange of the tree's branches is also a sign of friends.h.i.+p.”
"I see"
“There are four branches here”
The servant who was nearby brings a branch to my father.
It is contained in a box with a strict vibe to it, and it came to seem to be discernibly valuable.
"I want you to get me each branch of theirs"
“If they refuse?”
“It's your job to persuade them.”
"……the hurdle was set too high, don't you think?"
"Of course it is. Well, every country is seeking peace in their hearts. But some just cannot put it in words.”
“Why?”
“Because it will only show weakness to their opponents”
“Then when the country is strong enough, you can say that they don't need an alliance anymore?”
"In a way, yes"
"If that's the case, then it is better for me not to go, right?"
"Yes, but this will not be possible unless someone will do it. Besides, in the worst case, we can make an excuse that you did it without permission"
"B-but then my head will fall and be put on parade if that happens! And for the moment, isn't this a little too unfair?!"
"……still, would you still go?"
My father looked at me with eyes that made me feel dreadful.
I've only seen a calm father, but those eyes, are those what he has earned in those battles?
I don't hate fighting, but I hate big things like war.
If my action makes the world a little more peaceful, it will be worth going.
And so, I decided.

“Father, let me go”

Putting my hand on my chest, I made an oath.
Then my father who heard it, nodded slowly.
From me who is reincarnated, though I can't see him as my real, I think of him as a good father.
Shall I try my best for this person?
“Oh, Cecil”
My father looked at Cecil.

“I would like to ask you for this fellow's care. It might become a tough journey, but can I leave him to you?”
"I, Cecil Mir……am delighted to receive the king's order"
"Allan is still young. I'm counting on you"
"Yes milord"

And thus, Cecil also decided to go on a trip with me.
It is encouraging if you have her, and isn't it the best situation, traveling with a pretty girl. I'm looking forward to what kind of erotic things that will happen from now on.
Now then, shall we make the preparations?
"Father, I will then prepare for my journey"
"umu"
He nodded.
"Cecil, help me"
"As you wish"
I turned to my father and walked towards the exit.
…… Yes! Now I will be able to see the outside world!
"Allan-sama, we have just received a very important mission……wait, what are you grinning at?"
"kuku, I can't help it you know?"
"Why is it, if you may?"
"It's because I can finally go to the other countries you know? Spirits, or apparitions, I want to see such things with my own eyes"
“Haaaah … We are not going to play”
Cecil seems to be troubled at first, but I don't care.
The trip regarding the branches may be at the surface, but my true purpose is to embrace women from different countries.

I am looking forward to this journey.
