In Another World with My Smartphone (異世界はスマートフォンとともに。)

Huh? Here?

This is way too huge!

So you received this instead of knighthood?

They said I had to publicly decline,

so I went to the knighting ceremony,

but then they suddenly offered this mansion.

Perhaps this was their goal from the start?

They got you good.

You think so, too?

It's quite a lovely home.

It's going to be hard work just to keep a house this big clean...

It's too big for five people to live in.

Huh?

Huh?

Chapter 6:

Moving, and a Dragon

Huh? What?

Um, Touya-dono...

Is it all right for us to live here with you?

Of course.

But this house was a gift to you from the king.

So wasn't it meant for you and Yumina to live in?

If it's a home meant for two people who love each other,

it doesn't seem right for us to live here, too...

People who love each other?

I like all four of you equally, and I consider you all family.

So there shouldn't be a problem...

Linze?

What's the matter, everyone?

I-I'll go look at the second floor!

A-And I'll go look at the attic!

I-I-I am curious about the kitchen, as well!

What was that about?

I see. You like all four of us equally, like family?

I suppose that's a step forward.

I, too, hope to be your bride and share my life with you, Touya.

I have no intention of monopolizing you, so this is acceptable, too.

I'll go speak with the others.

Huh? What? What's going on?

I really like all four of them, though.

Whisper Whisper

How strange...

This is a nice garden.

You like it?

Yes, very much so.

Touya.

U-Um, Touya...

Is it really okay for us all to live here?

Of course.

You won't tell us to leave later, will you?

Why would I do that?

You'll treat us the same

as Yumina-dono, then?

Naturally.

Well, then, we shall all be living here together.

We'll move forward with what we discussed once your minds are made up.

Yeah.

Yes.

Understood.

"Discussed"? What did you discuss?

It's a secret.

O-Okay...

It seems you're the one with the least authority in this household, Master.

I am the butler, Laim. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

These ladies are temporary workers sent here by the Maid's Guild.

My name is Lapis.

My name is Cecile.

Pleasure to meet you.

These two will oversee matters within the mansion,

and these two will be in charge of security.

Laim has been in charge of caring for my father for many years.

Huh? The king?

Why is such a man coming to our home?

I've surrendered my duties in the king's service to my son.

I decided to spend the remainder of my life serving the man

who saved my younger brother.

Younger brother?

His name is Leim.

He serves His Grace, Duke Ortlinde.

Oh! Leim-san from Sue's family!

Touya, what do you say?

If you recommend him, I'm all for it.

All right, if you would, please.

Thank you very much.

Now then, everyone, let's get to work at once.

Yes!

I can't believe the man who cared for the king works for us now.

It just goes to show how much promise he sees in you.

Having a talented butler will be a great help.

Master Touya,

His Grace Duke Ortlinde and Lady Sushie have arrived.

Touya, I came to see you!

Another cute one's here!

I heard you got engaged to Touya, Sister Yumina.

I was surprised.

I'm the one who was most surprised.

And here I was thinking of having you marry Sue.

Both my brother and Yumina are cunning.

You were thinking of that, Father?

Well, I'd welcome Touya, of course!

Then, are you interested in marrying Sue along with Yumina, Touya?

Please don't get carried away like that.

Well, I'll stand down for today.

"For today"?

Actually, I'm here with a different request for all of you.

What's that?

Recently, our nation has decided

to form an alliance with the Kingdom of Mismede.

This means we'll need to prepare a venue for both kings to discuss matters.

But, while traveling to one nation would be best for the discussions,

that naturally comes with dangers.

So with that in mind...

You'd like to use Touya's Gate, yes?

Indeed, Yumina. You catch on quickly.

But I can only use that spell to travel to places I've been to—

Wait, you mean...

Yes. I'd like you to travel to Mismede.

I thought so.

I'm Garen, commander of Mismede's troops.

Lyon Blitz, member of Belfast Kingdom's First Knight Squad.

Soldiers from both nations will guard us

until we reach the royal capital of Mismede.

Thank you for escorting us.

Letting us travel with you two will be a big help, Olga-san.

I was just about to return to my homeland, anyway.

I'm glad I get to journey with you all, as well!

First, we will head to the city of Canaan within Belfast territory.

Then we will cross the Great Gau River into Mismede territory.

We'll be sure to protect you on our travels.

We're counting on you, Sir Lyon.

Y-Yes!

This one!

Too bad.

The correct choices were this and this.

You're right!

I lose again.

You're amazing, Yumina!

It's nothing so grand.

Yae, switch with me.

Why don't you try playing shogi with Olga-san?

Dolan taught me how to play shogi back at the Silver Moon!

Then let's play something else over here.

I'm 17!

Oh, please...

So, the puss in boots became a noble

and lived happily ever after.

That was a good story, Touya!

What is it?

Someone is approaching. Several of them.

It's probably highway bandits.

Uh, bandits...

There are 28 in total.

Let me try something real quick.

Enchant: Multiple.

Yeah, it worked.

Now I can lock on to all of them.

Paralyze!

Wh-What was that?

I used a paralysis spell.

They should be unable to move.

What do we do with this lot?

Let's dispatch a mounted runner to fetch guards.

Sorry for the trouble, Sir Lyon.

Oh, no, this is my duty!

Please, pay it no mind.

Well, I'll go inform my men.

Oh-ho, I see how it is.

Oh, to be young.

To be young, indeed.

To be young, yes.

Yes, to be young.

When did you guys...

Do you think Olga-dono is aware of Lyon-dono's feelings?

I think she is.

She doesn't seem as dense as a certain someone.

Huh? What?

He may be dense,

but Touya's also too kind to anyone and everyone.

Oh, I agree with that.

I think there's a problem with the way he leads people on, too.

Do you get it?

Sit there, on your heels!

Why?

Just do it!

O-Okay...

Oh? Touya, look.

Lyon-san, getting a souvenir?

Touya?!
