บท 842: Preparation for the Half Million

After the four of them, including the King, had quietly left the mayor's house, the mayor felt somewhat dazed.

"Wait, I… Is there something I'm unable to recall?"

He looked at the empty house, feeling as though something was not right. He could vaguely remember that he had just met a very important person, and had made a crucial promise, but he simply could not remember what they were.

What was this about?

The mayor felt somewhat shocked and fearful, even. His subconscious was instinctively telling him that he had best not speak of the matter to anyone, or he would surely get into big trouble. At the same time, he vaguely felt that the important person he had just forgotten should soon reappear.

And he needed to accomplish a very important task for him.

"...Forget it," After trying to remember what it was for a long time, the mayor still could not think of anything. He could only shake his head and toss the matter to the back of his mind, leaving it for another day.
