I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

20. Blond Tan (Yes) Admiral (No) Bullock

1.

Blonde.

Tanned skin.

And the sloppy tone and flirtatious attitude that can’t be hidden.

Aside from being a natural blonde, the roots of her hair weren’t dark, and anyone could see that she was a typical golden sun. The so-called blonde tanned bully.

It was a woman who seemed to have created a character model that would appear in a thin book that I often took care of in my previous life. Mainly in those books, it came out as a man, but anyway.

“Admiral Racille Leppert. Why are you here again when you should be clearing out pirates?”

“The last time I cleaned it up and came back, it was quiet for a while. I had nothing to do, so I came to the capital to play. Hey, everyone was gathered here, so what?”

Princess Elena asked with a visibly puzzled expression if everyone in the room was the same about the sudden appearance of an unexpected person.

Of course, the Admiral of the Golden Sun, called Racyl Leppert, calmly replied as if there was something wrong.

No, I only saw your name in the newspaper.

In this day and age, it is impossible to take a photo and put it in the newspaper, so I just roughly imagined the feeling of a female pirate wearing a pirate hat and a coat. Who knew that Golden Sun would appear?

…… Anyway, I made up my mind to call Admiral Rasil the Golden Sun from now on, and I quietly stepped back.

As if that had the opposite effect, the eyes of the three were fixed on me again.

The Grand Duke of the North and the Admiral of the South, which are often used like clichés, have gathered in one place. And by adding the imperial princess to that.

And the three of them, who had fixed their eyes on me, soon exchanged glances with each other again.

As if someone understood the situation by looking at the eyes without even saying anything first.

“Ahh~ What else am I saying. This wasn’t just me.”

Admiral Rasil giggled with a coy look.

Now, let’s wrap things up.

Then there are four regressors currently in the imperial palace.

Excluding Sylphia, who was not present, there were as many as three people gathered in one place, and all three of them were splendid.

And when I think about it again, those three were said to be competing for me.

‘What nonsense is this.’

Although it is said that it is the fate of a romance hero to attract handsome men around him, in a world where men and women are bizarrely reversed, there has never been a time when I swear to God that I have never wished for a position like that of a romance hero.

I just want to live a long and thin life. I can’t do it while shedding tears like a heroine of tragedy surrounded by pretty and popular women…… I don’t have a taste for saying the same thing.

This is unacceptable in our industry.

‘Poppy next door wouldn’t like that either.’

Ugh.

My face naturally frowned as I inadvertently imagined myself surrounded by five people and pretending to be the protagonist of a tragic story in a romance novel.

Fortunately, the three of them were immersed in their own thoughts and didn’t seem to care about me.

It was Archduke Eileen who broke the silence that lasted for a while.

“It’s not something to talk about here. Let’s move on and talk about it.”

“Hmmm, that’s fine. It’s not something you’re talking about in a place where there are a lot of ears.”

“……Your opinions are valid.”

The three women agreed.

The meaning of the eyes pouring down on me was clear. Maybe those three will only know that I don’t know that they are regressors, so I’m telling them to move away so I can talk about it.

It’s not that I’m not ignorant, but I knew I had to step aside.

I just know that you all came back right here, right? I want to say that, but I just held back.

Actually, there’s no reason I should say that. I have no reason not to say it.

Then it’s better not to talk.

“Then I’ll go now. I just came because I heard the sound of fighting.”

“You showed rudeness to Sir.”

And Princess Elena smiled as if she had read my uncomfortable feelings.

“Wouldn’t it be nice to go back, sir? We won’t have to fight anymore.”

I am the cause of the fight.

No, to be more precise, the princess in front of her tried to swindle her job to me, but…….

Anyway, avoiding the eyes of Princess Elena and Admiral Rasil, Archduke Eileen squinted at me again, as if saying ‘I have fulfilled your request’.

…… Well, still, since one more regressor intervened, the two of them won’t be fighting again without paying for their age.

I wanted to go to Gingamin, but first I closed the door and left.

There’s still some research left to do, and Sylphia should be doing it alone by now, so I’m going to go and help her out today too. If you have a conscience

2.

After Ludrick closed the door with a strange face and disappeared, there were only three seats left.

Rasil was the first to speak.

“Hey, this is really strange, isn’t it? At first, I wondered if this was really a return, but it’s a return.”

“……Sir Leppert.”

“Ah, tell Her Highness the Princess too. It’s a bit unfortunate that I’m not the only one who returned to the past, but I should think positively about where I came back. Ahahahaha.”

Elena narrowed her eyes at Racille’s answer.

I didn’t like that for a long time. It was because the admiral in charge of a country’s navy was too light and frivolous.

I know that there is no person higher than her in terms of her abilities, but if it wasn’t for that, she would have purged her after Elena herself ascended to her throne, even if she had been purged.

“Then let’s talk openly about what happened.”

“Hmm?”

Eileen, who had been listening silently while Elena frowned, opened her mouth slowly.

“It’s the same for everyone to realize that they’ve returned, and it seems like the timing was the same. And Admiral, there’s one more thing you don’t know.”

“If you say it’s a fact I don’t know…?”

“A dragon is coiled in the imperial palace.”

“Dragon… Ah, that woman is already here. She moves fast. Am I the last one?”

She thought about it for a while, but Rasil remembered someone’s face and clapped her hands, and Eileen shook her head to deny her question.

“There was still one more left, if I remember not wrong.”

“It seems that the true ancestor hasn’t arrived yet. Hagiji, it must take a while for it to fly from an absurd backcountry. It’s funny when she thinks that the eerie woman turns into a bat and flies hard with a bang. “

“…I’m sure only Sir Lepert can say that to the true ancestors of the world.”

“Well, I’m a vampire, but don’t I die if I’m exposed to sunlight?”

“Will Jinjo die from getting some sunlight?”

“……Uh, is that so?”

Elena touched her forehead at Rasil’s dumbfounded reply.

She was like this even before returning.

Since ascending to the throne, it was rare to have a conversation like this since the level of status has changed.

In fact, nothing good would happen if rumors spread that the Archduke of Nord, his second princess, and a navy admiral were secretly meeting only the three of them.

Now, it was more important to solve the immediate problems than to be suspected of treason.

“… All of you, you probably haven’t forgotten the ‘rules’.”

“Sure. Could it be that you forgot that?”

Racyl immediately responded to Elena’s low voice and chimed in with her. Eileen quietly nodded her head in response.

Since the faces of those gathered were so splendid, it wasn’t one person who put on a gun and set the rules, but the rules that everyone tacitly agreed upon.

If it was Rudrick who had the final choice anyway, the rule was to just quietly obey Rudrick’s will and accept the outcome.

2 Princess, Grand Duke of the North, Admiral of the South, Dragon, True Vampire.

Leaving aside the two outsiders, who were transcendent in their own strength, it was a civil war.

In addition, just as Sylphia threatened Elena once, if the dragon incarnated as the main body runs rampant and even joins the True Vampire, it wouldn’t be strange if the capital of the empire with a history of hundreds of years could burn up and disappear overnight. .

All five wanted to avoid that future.

After going through the process of reaffirming what we already knew, Rasil shrugged her shoulders and crossed her arms.

“Tsk.”

Then Elena clicked her tongue at the appearance of her chest that stood out.

Yes, she definitely hated her even more because of her appearance.

And whether Elena thought that or not, Rasil crossed her arms and opened her mouth.

“So, what are you all going to do with Rick’s Curse? Well, have you found any sharp tricks?”

“Looking for you.”

Eileen responded in her characteristic quiet, supple voice.

Since I have already roughly figured out the cause of the curse when I returned to the territory, I have already been searching for ways to solve it.

The cause of the curse is that the excessively accumulated mana in her body causes a mutation in the magic circuit and enhances her talent for magic, but in return makes it short-lived.

If the cause is mana that has accumulated excessively since birth, it means that a short-lived future can be prevented if the accumulated mana is somehow resolved.

Of course, it wasn’t easy.

I have already experienced in the past before returning that when the magic circuit starts to mutate, even the dragon, who is supposed to be more proficient in magic than any wizard on the continent, can’t even use his hands.

And.

Elena presented a promising hypothesis to solve the problem.

“……If the problem is that too much mana accumulates in the body, shouldn’t it be just to absorb that mana in reverse? What do the Lords think?”

“I want to know how to absorb it.”

“If there is a constitution in the world that accumulates mana, wouldn’t it be possible to find at least one person who has the constitution to absorb it in reverse? If not, then… Just absorb mana in the normal way.”

Elena’s answer, tilting her head, was terrifying to finish.

To be more precise, the last words are terrifying.

Rassil covered her mouth and pointed.

“Your Highness, do you have that kind of taste? Maybe you get excited when someone else hugs your man…”

It was an expression of contempt.
