(EP.480) The Happiest #3
taken from noblemt l
Gaiden – the happiest #3 in the world
wiggle wiggle.
There were many people gathered in front of the palace.
Half of them were people who had seen the poster Ira had put up. Another half are onlookers who come to see such people.
ㅡPlease send me inside the palace.
– 500,000 gold coins are mine!
Most of these people, I think, were covetous of the reward gold coins on the poster.
That money was enough for several generations to live in luxury without any income activity.
-So what kind of competition did you say it was?
– I don’t know either.
There are many people who have lined up for a while without even knowing that it is a bizarre contest to select “the happiest person in the world”. It won’t be easy to control people like this.
However, Aira, who was looking down at this sight from under the high walls, nodded her head as if she was very satisfied, and said proudly.
“There are a lot of people who claim to be the happiest. Well, it’s only natural that I, the perfect queen, are the people of Ira von Tarantera.”
Aira had a firm belief that the people under her rule would have a higher happiness index than those of any other country.
Such belief and strong self-confidence made me even a little envious. If I had been more confident in myself, I would have been able to solve many problems with more enthusiasm.
Ira said.
“Then let them come in turn.”
“All right. guards.”
swish.
I beckoned to the soldiers and Elgar as Ira followed, flapping her fine velvet cloak, and returning to the throne of the court.
It was a sign telling them to take good care of them and put them in an orderly order and let them in one by one.
Because Elgar and the royal palace soldiers were very capable and quick-witted people, they were able to arrange the front of the palace in an orderly manner while grunting, “I really can’t live because of Ira.”

Clinging.
A long table was placed in the hall of the royal throne room. It was like a table where the judges would sit and evaluate in an audition program.
Sitting there were me, Mirna and Narmi, and Stella and Reinhardt. Even if it were my wives, Reinhardt seemed to have a lot of questions about this extraordinary situation.
“It’s a bizarre contest. Yep, people come in through that door one by one, and they say how happy they are. How are you going to rate it?”
To Reinhardt’s question, I simply said, “Well. I think the Queen might have an idea.” He just shrugged.
At that moment, Narmi raised her hand and shouted.
“I have a great idea!”
“Oh, what do you think?”
“Not really! I was just talking!”
It was Narmi who smiled hee-hee. After scouring the mountains to the east in search of her mother, Naru, Narmi’s playfulness was greater than before.
I think it happened because I was playing with the kids. While Narmi was laughing hehehe alone, Mirna tapped the table with her fingers and lamented a little.
“I still have a lot of work to do. How are you spending your time here? I’m going to have a lot of work. I don’t know anymore.”
Is it liberation beyond lamentation?
At least it was Stella who was acting casually. Stella was just staring into the air without even changing her expression. Is it also your age?
“… Cool.”

No, it looks like he’s just sleeping with his eyes open. One of the abilities Stella learned when she was an adventurer was that she opened her eyes and said that she was sleeping.
“Then, let’s go ahead and ask the first participant to come in.”
swish.
As Aira’s hand gestures continued, Elgar, who was waiting in front of the court hall door, spoke to the outside and exclaimed, “Hey, let’s go inside from the first!”
oh oh oh
The door opened with a rather grand and majestic sound, and someone stepped on the red carpet and stepped inside.
was a small child A girl in a red dress and a tiara adorned with small diamonds and platinum on her head. I’m probably five or seven years old now.
She was a very cute and lovely girl.
When he appeared, the court maids and soldiers who were watching this scene were so cute that they said, “You’re such a pretty child.”
But Elgar asked in a rather solemn voice.
“Leonoi, why are you the first? You told your mother not to participate in this strange contest.”
“This Leonoi must always be first in anything… ! And, this Leonoi is something I want to spend with a prize of 500,000… !”
Leonoi coveted the prize money of 500,000 gold, so it seemed that he used his power to take the first place. In some ways, it’s awesome.
But what should I say about my face, it was burning like a parent who saw her daughter, who fell over at the sports day, started to cry.
I got up and grabbed Leonoi’s arm.
“Leonoi, it’s good to play. Adults should not interfere in their work.”
But Leonoi is firm.
“This Leonoi is very unfortunate… ! Dad said he would give this Leonoi a Molumolu doll as a gift, but he didn’t give it to me… !”
Laughter erupted everywhere. I had no choice but to answer by swiping my face.
“Okay, I was wrong. Let’s go to the toy store together this weekend. I’ll buy you there.”
“I’m asking you to buy a box of honey potato cookies too… !”
“okay okay. Let’s go.”
“I’m asking for honey ice cream too… ! Also, a little pony with horns and wings, and a magic princess transformation set… .”
Five-year-old Leonoi’s wishes were endless.
It is a clear fact that one day, Leonoi, who grew up selfishly and his younger sister princesses, will wage a great war of princesses – Game of Thrones, and put the kingdom in jeopardy.
Elgar, who knows this well, grabs Leonoi and pats and pinches the cheek.
“Leonoi, don’t you have to go around again to get your mind right?”
“Hey ah… !”
It was when Leonoi struggled and shed tears. Aira gets up from her seat, holds a strange flask in her hand, catches the tears, and closes it with a stopper.
Ira, who looked back and forth at that single drop of tears, finally made a sober judgment, saying, “I guess, Leonoi is not the happiest child.”
That’s right, I couldn’t be the happiest when my mom pinched my cheeks and shed tears while trying so hard.
However, one thing I felt here was the fact that Aira was trying to pick out the winner of the contest through some bizarre testing method.
* * *
“The reason Punchnoy is the happiest nymph is because I was able to buy two limited edition honey ice cream yesterday… ! One for dinner tonight, one for tomorrow… !”
whisper whisper.
“Ah-! Is it that Eugenoi ate one of that honey ice cream in Punchnoy’s refrigerator? ? This overwhelming misery is unacceptable… ! This is the time to make a decision… !”
daughter, daughter.
“The next person.”
Aira shakes the bell and one of the people sitting in the waiting room enters. He recounted how happy he was.
“My son has a PhD. My daughter got married yesterday and the children are all grown up to take care of themselves, so I don’t think anyone is happier than me.”
The owner of a small and medium-sized top with a heh heh smile. I asked briefly while looking at his pointy beard.
“If you get 500,000 gold, where will you spend it?”
“That’s something I haven’t thought about yet. Well… well… .”
The owner of the upper level is trying to talk about what is going on, but he hesitates. Aira, who was looking at him, gave a long snoring and rang the bell.
It was a pass.
Mirna said at the moment when the previous participant left and the next participant was about to enter.
“I have already checked a few hundred people. How about taking a break?”
Mirna seemed to want to take a break from this never-ending contest. It was a very true story, so we accepted that opinion and decided to take a break.
said Narmi.
“It was fun though! There are many people who say they are happy! There seems to be a variety of reasons!”
It was just as Narmi said. There were more people claiming to be happy than I thought, and the reasons were so varied that listening to them made me feel better.
Although unhappy people are usually unhappy for similar reasons.
Happy people are happy for a variety of reasons.
However, time is just passing by whether it does not match the ‘happiest person’ that Aira wants.
Also, there were a lot of scammers who came after the prize money of 500,000 gold, so I was tired of checking people one by one.
“What, are you done already?”
Then Stella, who was sleeping with her eyes open, woke up, wiping the saliva flowing from her mouth. There were many things I wanted to say in many ways, but everyone kept their mouths shut as if they had just decided to put up with it.
Stella said to him.
“At least it didn’t go well. In the first place, the happiest person can’t come to a place like this to get money, right?”
Reinhardt asks.
“What do you mean?”
“lets think. The happiest people don’t need money. I’m from the Belhawk family, so I know. People who already have everything they need, no matter how much money they raise, won’t accept the deal.”
Stella was right.
The happiest person in the world has a chance of not being tempted by money because he is already rich without lacking anything, and there is a possibility that he did not participate in the contest.
Shh.
Stella raising her finger.
“It might be quicker to go find yourself than to collect money as bait like this. The wise men of the deep mountains. It’s good to meet someone like a saint of the church.”
After all, Stella came up with a wise opinion, probably because she had lived for a long time. Reinhardt stroked his beard in admiration for him.
“You didn’t age in vain, Stella. Suddenly, you are more than twice as old as me—”
“Write, just go there.”
While Stella was arguing for Reinhardt, she folded her arms and closed her eyes as if in thought of Ira. You’re just trying to think deeply about our opinions.
Ira said that she had finally come to a conclusion.
“Then, let’s check only the people gathered today.”
Of course, it was a natural result, but none of the people who came for the prize money of 500,000 gold were the kind of happy Ira wanted.

Now we had to search for religious leaders such as sages and saints who were hiding somewhere.
In the case of Mirna and Stella, they couldn’t leave the palace because they had to take care of the children, so it was only me, Aira and Narmi who decided to go out.
“Mirna, you have to be well for a few days away.”
“Dad.”
Little Mirna grabs my pants and won’t let go. When Mirna starts to cry, Mirna’s sister and best friend, Stanoy, also starts to cry.
I had to try to appease the crying children, as if they would never see me. When the children have calmed down, the big Mirna side tells me.
“I’m Mirna too, shouldn’t my side be comforted as well?”
“Then, can I stroke your hair?”
“I go and think about it.”
“okay. Well then, Stella. Let’s clear the court for a moment. Stanoy too, you should listen carefully to your mother.”
After I hugged Stella’s slender waist tightly, I stroked her daughter’s head, who was rumbling on the floor. With this feeling, we went out on a sunny spring day.

Narmi asks while walking in the garden in full bloom.
“So, who are you looking for? Tae-oh, don’t you have any good ideas?”
“Well.”

Good idea if there is There are a lot of happy guys there. So, I passed through the city of Angmar and sprinted through the front door of a familiar company.
Then, the Imps who were picking the petals of the blooming flowers, trampling on them, and turning them into dyes look at us one by one.
“comrade! What’s going on with the Company at this hour?”
Marmar, the chief Imp of Diamond’s tail, waved his tail as if it was very happy to see me.
