Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist?-Chapter 590: Prime Minister’s Wife has a Tea Party

As Takumi and Simon were discussing the time and place for the civil official interviews, in the garden of the mansion, women were gracefully drinking tea.

「It is my first time traveling outside of the country, but for it to be in such a magnificent place, I can’t go anywhere else.」

「Madam Rosary, Yggurle Kingdom has wonderful places as well. Although they are not as beautiful as the Sanctuary.」

Rosary was delighted by the beautiful scenery of the Sanctuary. From Takumi’s mansion, the Spirit Tree across the Spirit Spring was the highlight.

「Still, I’m quite envious, Madam Freesia. You had a mansion built a stones throw away, did you not?」

「Yes. Well, even so, I stay here more often than not.」

「Really, if you keep doing so for too long, Dante would be too pitiful.」

Freesia literally has a house at a distance where soup wouldn’t even cool, yet life didn’t change much for her. Perhaps wanting to stay by Etoile’s side, she often spent her days in Takumi’s mansion.

And Lumia tattled on her.

「Oh yes, Madam Lumia, you come here pretty frequently as well. Even though she’s my grandchild……」

「All Elven children are my children and grandchildren.」

「I have my doubts about that.」

「Madam Lumia, is it alright to just leave King Yggurle by his lonesome in at the Lodge as well?」

「That man will be leaving tomorrow, perhaps I should see him off.」

Lumia brazenly declared that Etoile was just as much her grandchild.

Even when that civil servant Charlotte’s mother Elizabeth asked about Lumia neglecting King Yggurle, but Lumia seemed to have no plans of returning to her country.

「Madam Lumia, Madam Elizabeth, you seem to be staying here for an extended period of time, but is it not burdensome being away from the capital?」

「Burdensome she says, Madam Elizabeth.」

「Yes, Madam Lumia.」

Hearing Rosary’s question, Lumia exchanged glances with Elizabeth with knowing smiles.

「Indeed, Madam Rosary. If I want to have a dress made, I have to ask Maria-chan and Kaede-chan, but there are no bothersome parties here.」

「We can simply relax at a tea party without a need for formality. Furthermore, the food here is more delicious in comparison to the finest restaurants that could be found in the Royal Capital. This is most certainly because of the difference in ingredients. Even the products of Yggurle Kingdom, with its multitude of Spirits, could not compare.」

「Indeed. Even the wheat is completely different.」

「There is also an abundance in seasonings as well. Once in a while, our chef goes to Takumi-kun to learn.」

Hearing this, Rosary looked envious. As the legal wife of the Prime Minister who was occupied with the Kingdom, it was normal for her to host and participate in numerous parties. However, despite understanding that it was necessary as a noble, Rosary had come to realize that she was tired of it. That’s why she unintentionally let her true feelings show.

「It must be nice not having any bothersome parties.」

「My, is it the same for you too, Madam Rosary?」

「Madam Rosary, Madam Elizabeth, we have identical sentiments, I see.」

「Yes. The majority of people who attend parties try to flatter you or stand in your way. Particularly with my husband being the Prime Minister……」

「「「How bothersome.」」」

The three women looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

「That is why this place is the best. The scenery is stunning, and the Spirits are far more abundant here than in the Yggurle Kingdom. Perhaps it is only natural since it is the Sanctuary, but it is brimming of sacred energy, in turn making the food delicious, and above all else, the wine is delectable.」

「Indeed. The wine is superb. Once I had a taste of this wine, the wine sold in the Royal Capital that I would typically partake in felt like muddy water.」

「Certainly, and it is not only the wine, but other liquor are also delightful.」

According to what they heard, the clothes used by the residents of the Sanctuary were transported from the Royal Capital by the Papeck Company, so it was possible to buy it in stores. The residents could buy those, or craft it themselves.

There was no need to dress up for parties, but it was possible to wear pretty clothing when they want to. Elizabeth and Lumia had said that clothing made from the fabrac made of the threads of the legendary class monster Arachne could never be rivaled by the dressmakers from the capitals. The two further stated that the clothes designed by Akane were magnificent.

「When I saw what Mimir was wearing, I made my own request.」

「I too made a request.」

Hearing that Lumia and Elizabeth had requested designs made by Akane and clothes made by Kaede, Rosary realized that these two would not be returning for a while.

(Would a villa…… be impossible?)

Unlike Elizabeth and Lumia who have daughters here, how would she be able to stay here……

Before anyone knew it, Rosary naturally grew inclined to immigrating to the Sanctuary.
