Chapter 23.2 - Roundtable Meeting (2)
Translator: Lady Black
The two people buzz in the corner. Lisa then wrote down her words.
“Of course, there shouldn’t be anything scary for my brother. What on earth could I say to my brother? I studied animation here.”
“What is anime?” Johnny asked.
“It’s a strange world called Picture Story that moves smoothly and speaks fluently. According to it, secret groups of undergraduates play a part in the school trying to drag down promising young people into the wrong path. They set up magical battles for people who disturb them and invite powerful people to help from the outside. In short, they’re bad people.”
As he listened, she looked around and said this with all seriousness.
“and that’s a huge evil organization that’s shaking the country!”
[TLN: and here I thought it’s clairvoyance, *facepalm* really a serious case of chuuni]
Oops, everyone trembled.
Frey said, raising her hand.
“It might be directly related to Haruto-sama. That’s a huge possibility. No, I’m sure of it!”
[TLN: wonder how the hell the chunni hunches come true. Or maybe it’s just that the Modern world passed these trails and brushed it off as a joke in the stories later on… hmmm… that might really be possible]
Johnny then said right now.
“What can we do? It’s hard for demons to move out in the capital even if it’s to support Haruto-sama. Especially for me and Gigan, they’re so obvious.”
Charlotte then responded.
“We must work behind the scenes so that we don’t get in the way of a brother. Therefore, we need information. I shall go to the Royal Palace, the center of it, and reveal secrets of the great evil organization”
“But there’s a great distance between the frontier and the capital. The Zenphis would be alerted if Charlotte went absent for so many days.”
“I’m sure that brother would install a door. The base would be here, so I hope Johnny and the others to do their best to develop the Pandemonium Pass here.”
“Roger that. I must ready our disposal at any moment. Frey-sama picked up stray demons from there—they’re protected so the only concern was the extension of their homes.”
“It’ll be cramped up. I’ll ask brother to widen the boundaries.”
The story went by like a clockwork tick tock tick tock.
The concrete measures would work out the moment the meeting was over.
“Hey, is that alright?”
Lisa who was keeping records until now raised her hand.
“You won’t talk with Haruto?”
“I can’t make him worry.”
“If you give directions, all of them would be Haruto-sama’s burden.”
“It’s the lord’s duty. I feel that you have to consider him in your thoughts.”
“Ha…” (Gigan went to sleep)
“Is that alright…?”
Lisa had a haze feeling clouding her heart after the meeting—
***
“—That’s all during the day”
Lisa who came to his room late at night was worried about what was going on but the round table meeting was ongoing.
He stood up in his pajamas and grabbed her by the shoulders.
“You’re really great!”
“What?”
He didn’t mean to blame the dog eared maid that was loyal to the orders and didn’t report to her but it would be helpful to have flexible thinking.
“It’s fine. You can do anything if it doesn’t matter but this time it’s a just a little bit…”
Charlotte might not be the only one but Frey and Lisa were found to be very loyal, secretive, and adding the fact that they’re a demon, they would surely bring a big fuss.
But as long as he keeps an eye on them, he could go with them
“Haruto, do you want to go against the huge evil organization?”
“Oh.”
“Eh?”
What? Lisa the one that he thought the very decent person there was dragged by Charlotte’s story?
No.
There’s a lot of trouble if there’s something like a behind the scene meeting or secret society going on the school that’s controlling them
But since she’s so serious, it can’t be helped.
“Yes, there’s a huge evil organization that I haven’t gotten my information yet. I think it needed a bit of attention.”
If he said that, “I’m going to deal with Charlotte’s delusion” the child might get in trouble since she cheated everyone.
“that’s right… go on.”
“Lisa, be careful not to let Charlotte run out of control.
He’ll have her monitor her properly. Even if Charlotte wanders around the Royal Capital, it’ll prevent some problems.
“Ok, I’ll do my best.”
If he left the school and said, “Thanks to getting their attention, I’m free to move. The case then resolves!” Don’t let it all get together. Right.
It’s hard to keep company to children games.
He shrugged his shoulders and slept throughout the day.
