ONE COULD BE THE KING OF ANOTHER WORLD
Volume 1 (Ch 3 Creating a Broadcast Program )

Around the time the commotion from David's personnel meeting had been resolved, certain ghost stories began to spread in the fortress city of Swan's capital.

According to the story, there are models who roam the streets at night. It was the kind of doll you could see in a clothing store: without a face, with the joints of the arms and legs. Carrying a sword in both hands, he walked the streets night after night, hunting beasts and monsters.

A dventurer says this:

"A while ago, I did a search from the guild to escort the traveling salesman and walked the streets at night, well, well, when we have bad luck surrounded by several subspecies of gelin (the gel). They were weak individually, but this time there were many of them, and the battle was going on badly. Then a mannequin carrying swords in both hands staggered from the direction of the palace and attacked the gelin. It was such a creepy sight that we immediately ran away, but... I still have what's up with that thing."

Other adventurers say this:

"That was a week ago. I took a mission from the guild that said, 'A group of hobgoblins have crossed the border to the north and are traveling south. We want you to intercept them. We were waiting in a valley along their route to intercept them, but waiting as much as possible, they never showed up. Something seemed strange, so we went looking for them, and what we found was a mannequin standing in the middle of a pile of brutally murdered oblin corpses. Thinking it was a new kind of monster, me and a knight comrade attacked me, but repelled us with two swords he carried. When our witch tried to hit him with fire, he ran at an incredible speed. That thing ...it might be a new autonomous weapon created by the demon lord, don't you think?"

There have been many sightings, and although many say it is a ghost story, it is almost certain that it exists. However, when the adventurer guild acknowledged its existence and the quest to capture or release it, all apparitions stopped.

After that, some people wondered if it was not a joke by someone.

"... So, well, there's a rumor like that going on in the castle town, you know?" Liscia.

"Oh, yeah, is there now?" My toot.

As I lay on the sofa, my hands with needles did not stop as I responded, Liscia, who was sitting on the bed, took a slightly irritated tone.

"....Whahuh? Doesn't a story like this interest you?"

"No, not like that, but..."

"David, you're the king, so isn't the story that caused the unrest in the fortress city important to you?"

"You don't have to worry about that. That mannequin won't show up again."

. Do you know anything about that?"

"Yes, kinda..."

I packed "cotton" while I gave an unclear answer. Now, I just have to stitch the back of it closed and it will be finished.

And, wait, what are you doing there, David?"

"What's? What it looks like. Sew."

"No, I asked why you came to my room to sew!"

"Well, where else should I go? After all, my room is still the office of government affairs."

Recently, the amount of work to be done has been slightly reduced, so while my Living Poltergeist pen is working, my main body can rest like this. Even so, the government affairs office of my bed always had a lot of officials in and out, so it was a bit difficult to keep her calm there.

“In addition, you know how Aisha end-end this ...," I added.

"I can guess." he said.

When dark elves pledge their allegiance to someone, they are proud of themselves for staying by that person's side and protecting them until the day they themselves die, it seems. That was why Aisha appointed herself as my bodyguard, and whether it was work time, meal time, or sleep time, she tried to follow me wherever I went, even to the bathroom and toilet. I think it's problematic to have someone who hasn't even been officially hired yet so close to the king, but she's beautiful, very loyal, and her skills are well known, she said, so Ludwin and the royal guards turned their eyes to him. As for Hakuya, who had taken over the post of prime minister from Marx, he said:

"Is it not beautiful to be surrounded by such beauty? The princess, Lady Aisha, Lady Juna.it is important to me that you choose, but please hurry and give us a child. It will bring stability to the royal house."

Very easy thing to say. Depressing.

While I was thinking that, Liscia came and stabbed me in the back.

"I'm sure you don't really care about attention, do you?"

"Give me a break. Just when I could finally rest... Wait, huh? Come to think of it, where's Tomoe?"

"Tomoe's in Mom and Dad's room. I like him..."

Just a few days ago, Tomoe came to the castle to live as Liscia's sister. Of course, as we promised, his family also went with him.

Incidentally, Tomoe's mother works at the palace's child care facility, which we have created as an experiment to help encourage the progress of women in society. She lives with nurses, taking care of other people's children at the same time as hers. This daycare facility was a hit for young waiters, who said, "Now I can get married without worry."

With maternity leave not present at this point, women are often missed while they are pregnant. That was why, unless they became the mistress of the king, most servants spent their entire lives on their own.

But I digress. Basically, it means Tomoe has two mothers in the palace. He looked a bit confused at first, but now they both admired him.

Liscia stood up and, putting her hands behind the sofa, she peeked over my shoulders. "Stay, when you have time to rest, you sew ...? Is that a doll?

"Oh, this? This Little Musashibo.

I finished sewing the doll, handing it over to Liscia.

"Little Musashibo?"

"Yes. He's from my world... Looks like a rare and exotic wild beast, I guess?"

Little Musashibo is a super-deformed cute mascot based on the Benkei Musashibo from the city where I live. White silk face. Stola and Tasbih a Buddhist priest. Large bushy eyebrows that look impressive, but sweet seed eyes underneath. People liked that gap, so he was well received.

By the way, the city where I live

there is absolutely no connection to

Musashibo Benkei's. So, how's Benkei, how's,

You might be wondering? Yeah, "because

formerly Saitama Prefecture was known as Musashi Province." That's the only reason.
