Chapter 1619: Demi humans (1)
Mofu Mofu Kingdom, that was the official name of the land of the demi humans.
This name wouldn't really mean anything to the people of this world since they were already used to it, but for me who had come from another world…For me who knew what the real meaning behind this name was…
There was a faint smile that appeared on my lips when I heard this.
Only it seemed that Vanilla misunderstood the reason why I revealed this smile.
"It seems that your majesty was already expecting us. As expected of the one that's known as the Wise King."
"Wise King?" I couldn't help repeating when I heard this.
For some reason, it sounded like I was being mocked when she said it.
After all, I was a king that didn't actually govern his own land, so it wasn't as if I could be considered a wise king.
Only it didn't seem like Vanilla minded this as she said, "Of course, you're known as the Wise King because of all the knowledge that you possessed that allowed you to befriend the different races. I've heard that you single handedly defeated the Dwarven King in a forging contest, bested the elves in archery, and defeated the Merman King in a swimming contest."
My lips couldn't help twitching when I heard this.
After all, other than the first thing, the rest of it wasn't true.
I had never actually done any of that…at the same time, it wasn't as if any of that was related to wisdom like she called me.
Only it didn't seem like Vanilla cared at all about this as she continued rambling on.
The way that she did this made her seem like a fan which just made it harder for me to actually stop her.
But in the end, I didn't get to stop her as someone else did it before me.
"That's enough of that. I think that his majesty has already heard enough from you."
There was a second figure that appeared beside Vanilla.
This was another figure that had the same cat ears on their head, but their cat ears were of a different colour.
Vanilla's cat ears were white while this new figure's cat ears were black.
Once this second figure appeared, she covered Vanilla's mouth while she was still rambling about the whole Wise King thing.
Then turning to me, she said, "Your majesty, I apologize for this one. This is her first mission and she's quite the excitable person. I hope that you will not be offended by her words."
I just waved my hand to show I was fine before saying, "Then do you want to come in and talk? I'm sure that it'll be better than talking in the gardens like this."
This second figure nodded in agreement before looking like she thought of something.
"Your majesty, my name is Chocola and I'm here to represent the Mofu Mofu Kingdom along with her. However, we also have an entire squad that came with us that are waiting outside. I hope that your majesty will allow them to come in as well."
I wasn't surprised to hear this.
Since there was a second one, it was only natural that there were more of them.
It wasn't as if they would just allow them to move alone, it would be far too dangerous for that.
But there was something else that I was surprised by.
There were cat girls in my past life that had the same names as these two, but…their personalities had been completely reversed.
The royal guards were surprised by the appearance of these two cat girls and they even thought that they were assassins. Though I really couldn't blame them for thinking this since I would have thought the same if I was in their shoes.
All I could do was convince them that these two weren't assassins, but rather ambassadors.
So in the end, it took a while to not just convince the royal guards, but also to bring in the ones that had been waiting outside as Chocola requested.
Though it was clear that they didn't trust these demi humans with the way that they were being treated.
However, it wasn't strange since Vanilla and Chocola had snuck into the royal gardens to talk to me. If they had just come to greet us normally, then it wouldn't have turned out like this.
I wasn't the one that spoke for the Kite Kingdom at this meeting.
It was the prime minister that spoke.
I had wanted to speak, but I just couldn't say anything when they glared at me.
It wasn't just the prime minister, but also all of my wives who glared at me.
As for why I couldn't speak, it was because they were doing this because they were worried about me. At the same time, I knew that they were angry with me for keeping the fact that these two approached me a secret.
So all I could do was let them handle this.
"Why did you come to our Kite Kingdom?"
Chocola was the one that spoke on the Mofu Mofu Kingdom side, "We've arrived to congratulate his majesty on his wedding on behalf of the Mofu Mofu Kingdom."
She was still using the same story, but…
"And why would you be doing that after the wedding is over? Don't you think that you're a bit too late for this? It's hard to believe that this is the only reason that you've come here." The prime minister said with his eyes narrowed.
When they heard this, both Chocola and Vanilla revealed surprised looks as they looked at each other.
It was clear that neither of them had expected to hear this.
At the same time, the rest of their party were also surprised to hear this.
These demi humans were surprisingly honest with their expressions.
But it didn't seem like the prime minister believed this with the way that he continued, "Now, how about you tell me the real reason that you're here?"
