We pulled the canopy over the carriage carrier, and there I had princess Eligore sit on her knees and scolded her, disregarding her social status.

Next to her, Finia was plopped over immodestly with her limbs stretched, and was breathing roughly with an exhausted expression.

This was due to the recoil from using high-level magic that was beyond her ability.

The spell princess Eligore had used earlier was a tracking-type flame spell. Moreover, it was originally a spell that needed to be guided by thoughts, but Maxwell’s original version made it auto-track the target.

Eligore, who had inherited that spell, had gone and triumphantly used it earlier.

The Vulture that got surprised by the giant fireball turned tail and ran about to escape from it, and the Blaze Sphere followed after it in pursuit.

The radiant heat caused a fire in the forest, and since the Vulture was flying everywhere it only accelerated the damage spread.

To make matters worse, due to the spell’s automatic nature, even Eligore herself could no longer stop it, so it stayed in effect until it burnt the Vulture.

By the time it ended, the surroundings were turned into a sea of fire, so Finia used a high-level spell called Control Weather in a panic to put it out and ended up expending all her magic power.

Being left empty of it, she didn’t have enough composure to keep up her usual tidy appearance, so she was plopped down inside the carriage, while we quickly pulled over the canopy to defend against the rain that she had summoned.

And we arrive to present.

“Letina also used fire magic inside the forest all the time, but she never used something this brutal.”

“I have no excuse…”

“At least pay attention to your surroundings before you use magic. When you hold great power, it is your obligation to master it properly.”

“My attendants also keep telling me to sit still all the time.”

“…So this is a usual thing?”

I feel like I’ve seen this kind of “having power but ending up badly” style somewhere.

I couldn’t remember who she resembled, but either way, I got that she had no ill will. That said, she still did something dangerous, so I had to scold what needed scolding. Even if she was royalty.

We were traveling together after all, and her magic could put my comrades in danger. It was best to take advantage of princess Eligore’s gentle personality and say what I could say.

That said, I was also at fault for letting her participate in the battle without seeing through her personality, so I couldn’t scold her too harshly.

“I see, so Elly was a clumsy girl, huh?”

I was certainly known for messing up at the very end, but I didn’t put my surroundings in danger at least. I shoved a magic recovery vial into Finia’s mouth with an irked expression.

Princess Eligore was a good and gentle person, and was seen as a perfect individual from the perspective of us commoners, so I never expected her to have such flaws.

Either way, though it was a fatal mistake, she was reflecting after that first mistake, so I decided to stop scolding her so persistently.

She would be our traveling companion, so it would become detrimental if she started to fear me.

After all, I was an extreme loner in my past life because people feared me, so I didn’t want to repeat the same mistake.

“Well, it’s good that you’re reflecting on it. Be careful from now on.”

“Alright…”

Princess Eligore answered while hanging down her head in dejection. It was pretty adorable to see her like this.

At any rate, we couldn’t stay holed up inside the carriage forever. The Vulture attack and the fire extinguishing had taken a lot of time, and the day was starting to darken.

“Given Finia’s state, I’ll handle cooking today. Cloud, you prepare your tent meanwhile.”

“Oh, is Cloud not sleeping together with us?”

“Ellie, you’re royalty, you know? Don’t you think it’ll be problematic to sleep together with a boy?”

“It should not be dangerous if it’s Cloud…”

“People could still use that as a threat. And that would bring trouble to Cloud too.”

“But there is not a person around, so it should be fine.”

This made me realize something. She didn’t have a poor endgame. She just had weak defenses. Will Raum’s royalty really be fine as things stand?

“Huh, is Cloud gonna become a king?”

“Nonononono, not a chance! That’ll never happen!”

Michelle asked in disarray as she listened to our talk, but Cloud retorted to it with all his might. That made me lose my strength. Michelle really was a healer.

Even Finia had a dry smile on her face.

But still, there were more important matters to handle now.

“Anyway, Finia, how long will this rain last?”

“This spell should continue for around an hour. This is the first time I have used it, so I can’t say for certain.”

“I suppose magic to clean things up benefits you more than magic to make it rain.”

“Well, I do think the same during laundry…”

At any rate, it didn’t seem like it would stop raining while we got ready. In that case, there was no choice but to go under the forest trees where the rain wouldn’t reach and start cooking there.

I found it a pain, but asked Michelle to move the carriage towards it.
