It's been a few days since the ruins expedition was finished. We are currently remaining in the castle so that Lucia can finish transcribing and translating the diary since according to her, there are some important bits of info that seem to be part of the diary entries. And because I am also waiting for Queen Tanya to issue the beginning of the expedition, pretty much my stay in this castle has been a passive day for me.

Aside from the preparations I am doing for the expedition to the Kamikaze Continent, there's nothing else I have done aside from lazing around or sparring with Queen Tanya in my spare time.

There's also no development in the real world as well as the elves seem to have hit some kind of roadblock and will be stalled for quite a while until then. And as for the rest of the people I have to convince, I still didn't get the chance to talk to them. Rika and Pandora have yet to give their answers but I didn't want to make them hurry up on their decision so I let them be and just continue on waiting for their answers.

All in all, most of the time, it was just a boring day after every boring day.

"Wow, I don't know whether I should be happy that I don't have anything to do, or to be upset since I don't have anything to do. It's been some time since I have been this passive," I muttered.

"Then why not start killing some monsters outside? That would definitely remove your boredom, yeah?" Cath Palug suggested while yawning in the bed.

"You really think killing random low-level mobs outside does any help? It gets more boring the more I do that and I don't want the newbie adventurers to complain that I harvested all the low leveled mobs outside and left them nothing to kill. You will be the one who will get more satisfaction in battle as well."

"Ugh, what a boring response," Cath Palug then plopped himself to sleep.

As for me, I am just creating some ready-to-eat snacks that slowly raise my experience points on my EX Job. I needed my rank to be a bit higher so that I can use the recipe that will also help me with recruiting the wife of the shogun for later. However, it's pretty much dull creating this thing over and over just to level up my cooking skill level. I even have lots of this stuff in my inventory, but this is for the sake of the result. Cooking food a lot is needed to level up the skill but since I can't keep on cooking food that will go bad for quite a while, the ready-to-eat snacks are the best recipe for it. A recipe that gives a decent amount of experience in cooking, non-perishable, hand-crafted ingredients is pretty easy to make being sugar and water with the addition of caramelizing the water and sugar then creating cubes from it.

It's easy to make but it's pretty much a chore to raise the level, so I am still bored while making stuff. As I am still having a dull day while waiting for the hours to move away, the soldiers outside seem to have assembled. I also heard the maids scurrying around as well as if they are currently in a hurry to prepare something.

This prompted me to stop what I am doing and look out for what is currently happening. I looked outside the window but I can't get a grasp on what is currently happening so I can only shake my head at this and wonder what it was all about. However, my curiosity is driving me mad so I decided to go and check out what was this all about.

The maids are still scurrying and busy with their work so I didn't bother to stop and ask, I don't want to hamper their work and lose their job because of me. I should investigate this myself rather than disturbing one of the maids.

Outside, the soldiers are lined up and from the looks of it, someone is coming in, and based on how they are doing this, it seems to be someone important. As I was wondering who it was, Queen Tanya appeared with her two maids behind her.

"Oh, Bladeheart, are you also here to welcome Tori as well? I didn't know you know she will be arriving today. I don't think I mentioned anything about it?" she was surprised. freewebn ovel.com

"Eh? So it was Queen Tori who is currently arriving which is why everyone is busy?" I asked.

"You don't know?"

"No, I just went out as everyone seems in a hurry so I went out to check who it was."

"Remember that we will be going to the Kamikaze Continent? Tori will be coming as well which is why she is currently visiting so that once everything is ready, she will depart alongside us."

"Oh yeah, I do remember you saying that she will be joining us but you didn't say anything that she will be coming today."

"Haha, I guess I didn't specifically say she will come today. But now you know."

A red carpet is being rolled out from the road and the carriage door opened, revealing Queen Tori alongside her two maids as well. As soon as she passes by, the soldiers made a salute gesture one by one. Queen Tori remained elegant on her walk as she slowly remove the thick garments in her body and gave them to her maids, leaving only normal clothes that is insulated enough for anyone to wear while in a hot environment.

"Ugh, sis. I know that it was only for appearances but please, can we stop doing this kind of stuff? It's kinda embarrassing yeah? Besides, these poor soldiers and maids are all busy, and stopping them on their work just for this is just kind of troublesome for them," Queen Tori complained.

"Now, now. As much as you complain, we needed to do that so that those officials who keep on keeping their eyes on us won't have any criticism thrown at us."

Queen Tori notices me and she smiled as she pat my shoulder.

"Looks like we are going to work together once again, boy. Thanks for keeping on helping us with this. It's a huge help."
