On the night he ran over the hobgoblin, Masaru was preparing dinner when Adelina didn't speak a word.

"......... Miss Adelina? Dinner's ready.

"........................... .......

Are you still mad at me?

"......... I'm not angry anymore. I'm not angry anymore.

......... So let's eat. Let's eat.

And then he lifted the charcoal roasted chicken from the fire.

"Hey, are you sure Masaru won't be king?

"Hmm? No, I'm not.

Why not? When you have a big chance like this, it's normal to want to make a name for yourself! Why is it always so easy for Masaru to get something and then let it go!

I don't know why I got so angry, but I'm just a small citizen who works at a home improvement store in Japan, so I've never wanted to get a raise, a promotion, or even a promotion. In fact, even if he was offered a promotion, all he could remember was his boss who stayed late at the store to clean up after himself, and it was Masaru's daily life to say no from the bottom of his heart.

It's a pain in the ass, he'd rather work in the field than do office work, and he doesn't seem to have any trouble making a living. "Why?

"........., you're trying to force that hassle on people. .... But Adelina's not going to be around for long.

I'm not sure about Adelina now, but she was someone who wanted to make it if she had the chance, right? I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. That's true.

That's true, but...

Then what's your problem?

It's not my power! It's not that I really created it or that I'm the most trusted representative! You're the one they really rely on the most, and you're the one who can do it the best! I know that!

Adelina's head snarled menacingly with a face that looked like it was about to burst into tears. I put my hand gently on Adelina's head and stroked it.

Adelina is doing her best. And it's not me she's relying on, it's Adelina. The only time I'm ever going to stand out is when people are in trouble. Think about it... politics at my level all the time... who's going to follow me? I'm pretty sure Adelina can't even get married, she's too busy working.

"I don't have anyone to marry, even now at .......... .......

If I had any more power, the rest of the world wouldn't be able to breathe. "Sure...

I'm not married to anyone. Yes.

I'm sure you'll have a hard time stopping someone who interacts with the gods.

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand.

I really hope you don't do that. I really hope not.
