Join the discord! Here

In the kingdom, there were two princes, but their deep brotherly love prevented any disputes over succession.

The wise and benevolent eldest prince possessed the qualities of a monarch, while the brave and robust younger prince had the makings of a great general.

This was a story I heard at a kingdom's social gathering. Although there might be some exaggerations regarding their abilities, the core of the story wasn't just a baseless rumor.

There were indeed two princes, and the younger happily accepted the elder as the heir. Gossips claimed that the princes enjoyed hunting monsters with the knights...

What is it with this place?

Is it a trend for the second child of noble families to run away from home?

Only the 40th floor and I'm already appointed as a hero. Now a princess emerging from the kingdom... What will happen at the 90th floor? Will I be hailed as a savior and end up like some cult leader?

-The difficulty level has definitely increased, but the story progression is insanely fast.

-But it looks easy because of Roland. Anyone else would be struggling.

-This is the floor where you form a 4 max-level party and awaken to 5, which means a lot of level grinding.

-From the 35th floor, you grind experience with monsters that don't drop mana stones. Annoying, but necessary.

-There is a difference between inherent s, but I wonder if grinding can overcome that...

While I pondered this, Han Se-ah and the viewers began buzzing about the princess.

It's natural for everyone to be excited about a princess in a fantasy world.

Especially if that princess is hailed as the most beautiful woman in the kingdom.

A beauty so stunning that anyone who meets her falls in love, the kingdom's greatest beauty. Her heart is as beautiful as her appearance, so pure and faithful that she could be a saint if she joined the temple. She also mediates the conflicts between the royal family and the temple.

...This was the first I've heard of this in my ten years here.

I got it from the Information Guild.

The sudden appearance of a princess in the game scenario has rendered my previous knowledge useless. I knew that the royal family and the temple were not on the brink of war, but they were like predators ready to pounce on each other's weaknesses...

Suddenly, they are on good terms.

A princess... Katie, have you ever met her?

No. I've only stayed in the north, so I've only heard rumors. Nobles from the north who visited the capital spoke of her almost reverently.

Beautiful, kind, and wise.

It's as if they've created a real-life fairy tale princess. And of course, it's unlikely that I haven't heard of such a famous person in ten years.

It's obvious that she's a gacha character, just like the daughter-loving Northern Great Bear.

Then we should head to the capital, right?

Indeed. No matter what, we can't just invite a princess to the tower. It's already an honor for a common-born adventurer to receive an invitation from her.

Despite the recognition from the brothers and sisters, being appointed as a hero doesn't yet mean the royal family's acknowledgment.

Of course, even if she's a newly created character, her power is real.

She has won the favor of various nobles from the capital to the north, has connections with the temple, and is on good terms with her brothers a woman with power.

No matter how kind she might be, with such a status, it was obvious that the people around us would be on edge.

Being a hero doesn't give someone of common birth the right to stand too proudly.

Thus, the journey of the newly formed Hero Party to the capital was decided.

Raei Translations

---

The city where adventurers arrive upon creating their characters, which had become my second home by force, was very different from the capital of the kingdom.

It wasnt just a difference like that between Seoul and Busan - it was completely different from beginning to end.

A city gathered by adventurers to kill monsters from the tower and merchants who trade in mana stones brought out by those adventurers.

The chaotic back alleys were crowded with poor alchemists who had set up makeshift workshops, while the main streets were bustling with all sorts of merchants.

In contrast, the capital of the kingdom was a land created around the royal palace, for the nobles and those who gathered for their power.

Unlike the disorderly city, the width and angle of the streets were meticulously planned, giving a neat appearance.

Wow, the streets are really amazing.

Maybe it's because theres no need to clear snow, but its clean and beautiful.

Because of this, both Grace, who came from a small village of farmers, and Katie, a noblewoman from the north, gaped in awe inside the carriage, looking around curiously like country girls who had just arrived in Seoul.

Their cute appearance attracted the loving smiles of Irene, who watched them instead of the scenery outside, and Han Se-ah, who giggled as she filmed them.

Being a city built along the walls of the royal palace, the streets were free of dirt and even dust.

The cleanliness was maintained by magic tools, and the ground was completely covered in stone.

Even the market had no shabby stalls of small traders; only neat shop buildings were present, giving the impression of a well-organized European tourist spot at first glance.

With magic tools maintaining cleanliness 24/7, it was even better than modern Europe.

Looking out the window, I felt relieved that we didnt live in a world where people threw waste on the streets and avoided wearing high heels to dodge it.

If it were such a world, I might have moved to a remote mountain area to farm alone, rather than living in a manor with magic tools.

We received an invitation, but it doesnt mean we can meet her immediately. Well have to stay in the capital for a few days.

True, the princess must be incredibly busy.

The clean streets echoed with the clatter of horse hooves. Despite the congestion, there was much to see, especially since everyone was well-dressed, without a single dirty or shabby-looking poor person in sight.

Patrolling the area, handsome men and beautiful women in black uniforms with swords at their waists wandered around, and gorgeous women in uniforms stood in front of shops, holding small magic tools and promoting something.

If the city of adventurers could be compared to a lively rural market, the streets of the capital were like a well-decorated department store.

They were so brilliantly and attractively arranged that it was compelling to look around, making everyone in the party focus their attention outside the window while talking.

Then where should we stay?

This is the merchants' district, and there's another area in the capital where inns for visiting guests are concentrated. I heard that the facilities in the western street are the most expensive and luxurious.

As the conversation naturally progressed to the topic of accommodation, it was clear that it was an important consideration.

We were on a schedule to meet a princess of a nation; it wasn't going to be a simple day trip where we visit in the morning, meet at noon, and return by evening.

We had to find a place to stay and wait patiently for a few days after presenting our invitation to the royal palace.

Katie, who had only heard stories from others back in the North, mentioned the western street and finally shifted her gaze from the window to me.

Among those in the carriage, I, an adventurer, was more familiar with the capital than Katie, a noble.

Blinded by the allure of magic tools, I had to focus on targeting the big spenders like the capitals nobility to scrape together gold coins.

We don't need to worry about finding a place to stay.

Oh, why?

Because we are guests personally invited by the princess. Whether we are heroes or not, if we are invited by the princess, do you think we would be asked to stay in an inn? Theyll probably give us a villa to stay and wait.

Ah, right, that makes sense.

You are of noble birth Doesnt your family in the North have a villa in the capital?

Ah, well, I ran away right after my coming-of-age ceremony. If I use that villa now, my father will come running after me.

As I spoke, Katie nodded, seemingly just remembering the villa.

It was odd that a noble lady, who surely had a luxurious villa in the capital, was talking about inns.

She seemed a bit embarrassed and spoke in a cute, coquettish tone.

The carriage we were in was sent by the royal family after discussing with the temple.

The comfort was incomparable to the usual cargo carriages or the noble familys carriages I had ridden for missions. So comfortable that it rivaled the backseat of a limousine I had never ridden in, naturally inducing drowsiness.

As if to prove my point, the smoothly stopping carriage opened its door to reveal the people, or rather maids, waiting for us.

Greetings, Mage Han Se-ah and her companions.

Ah, he-hello?

-Cute, she's stuttering already.

-These arent maids!

-If the maids greeting us have four stars, does that mean the princess has five?

-LOL, a maid equals the four-star daughter of the Northern Duke?

-She looks like she could beat monsters with a broom.

The woman standing at the front slightly bowed her head.

Her face was wrinkled from the passage of time, but her posture was as straight as bamboo.

Tall for a woman and with such upright posture, she had a dignified presence despite not being particularly large.

It was only natural for Han Se-ah to instinctively stutter in response to such a greeting.

With her snow-white hair, wrinkled face, and posture as straight as a pillar, as if reinforced with iron rods, along with her elegant steps, she was a sight to behold.

She wore a neat black dress that perfectly covered her from ankles to neck, leaving no skin exposed, and a crisp white apron that affirmed her role as a maid.

So, this grandm-, um, ma'am? No, housekeeper, is she stronger than Grace in her novice days?

A woman with one more star than Grace, who used to live an adventurer's life with a bow, begins to guide us.
