We are on our way toward the harbor of Neku... and we are leaving this giant castle...

"This place is actually pretty good..." Ed said...

"Good in what terms?" Euclio asked...

"I mean, it is beautiful.. also, the people are well-mannered... they accepted that their king is dead... and now they serve us..." Ed said

"That is the rule of Beastman Kingdom..." Erin interupt us...

"When a King die in a fight, the killer will be their new King..." Erin explained...

"Which is why, it explained that the city accepted us easily..." I said...

"Yes... but actually we never have a King from other race... which is why, it is hard for you to be the king of beastman Kingdom..." Erin said to me...

I nodded...

"I never wanted to be a king anyway..." I said

After we left the castle...

The path to the harbor has been cleared by the soldiers...

The citizen is waiting for us to pass... but they say nothing to us, and I think it will take some times for them to accept us as their new king...

It is a long way, and no one is actually angry to us, after I killed their King...

"Hmmm, I feel a bit uncomfortable..." I said

"Yeah, but they do not hold any grudge against us... so it seems that they had accepted already..." Euclio said...

It is actually Erin that killed King Leo... but somehow, people assume it was me...

And I feel a bit guilty, but not Erin...

After a long way, we finally arrived at the harbor... and there is a white tiger waiting for us...

"Bring June in..." I said to Ed... and he nodded...

I jumped to the ground with Euclio and talks with Javier... while Ed and Erin accompany June to enter the ship...

"Everything is ready, Nicolas-sama..." Javier told me...

"Yes, thanks... but I thought, I asked Tyr to prepare the ship..." I said

"Tyr is...."

"Nicolas-sama!" someone called me from distance...

I looked back, and it is Tyr...

B-But...

He is pulling a wagon instead a horse!... what is it about...

Then he stopped the wagon when we are close enough...

I asked him...

"What's inside the wagon?"

"It is water... there are a total of 50 barrels..." Tyr said...

"Nice... ask your men to bring it to the ship..." I said

"Yes! Nicolas-sama!" Tyr said energetically

I wonder what makes him on fire...

Tyr then commanded his men to do the job...

While doing so, Javier come closer...

"Do you think that Saltvein and Bazo will accept me?" I asked Javier...

And he give a thought...

"Saltvein will surely accept you... since they hate King Leo for a long time... but Bazo, it will be hard..." Javier told me...

I understand about Bazo, but why Saltvein?
