Chapter 352: The Weight of Duty

Michael shifted uncomfortably his feet. He’d been waiting outside his father’s audience chamber for nearly ten minutes and was becoming impatient.

“I’m terribly sorry, your highness,” Bixby said, noticing Michael’s discomfort. “His royal highness is meeting with Carl Salworth, the president of the Royal Academy of Science and Technology, regarding the academy’s annual gala. I’m sure he didn’t mean to make you wait.”

Michael couldn’t help but laugh.

“It’s fine, Bix,” he said. “After all, isn’t waiting the very definition of my job?”

Bixby frowned.

“I suppose you could look at it that way,” the aide said. “But I prefer to think of your role as helping to support Prince Stephen with his many duties. One is passive, while the other is active – and, I believe, more accurate.”

Michael sighed.

“You’re right, of course,” he said. “I apologize, Bix.”

At that moment, a footman opened the door and a distinguished older gentleman emerged and bowed to Michael.

"Your highness," he said. "I look forward to working with you."

Michael nodded politely, covering his confusion as Salworth turned to leave.

Stepping into his father’s audience chamber, Michael found Prince Stephen standing at the window, gazing out intently.

“Father?” Michael called, gently.

“Mmm?” Stephen mumbled, turning. “Oh yes, Michael. Good.”

“I met Dr. Salworth on his way out,” Michael said. “From his comments, I’m assuming I have an assignment?”

“Indeed,” Stephen replied, moving toward his son. “I’ve been struggling with too many commitments these days, so I’ve decided to start passing on some of my engagements to you. As my heir, I think it will be good for you to begin shouldering more of the load.”

“May I ask the nature of the task?” Michael asked.

“You will be my representative at the Academy’s annual gala next month at the Weston Museum of Natural History,” Stephen said. “You will be recognizing the winners of this year’s Royal Science Grants and opening the museum’s new medieval Weston exhibit.”

Michael felt a pit grow in his stomach. Of all his royal duties, public speaking was his least favorite.

“Father,” he began hesitantly. “You must know how uncomfortable I am in front of large groups like that, and ….”

“Michael,” Stephen said forcefully. “I understand your fears, but it’s time for you to grow up and begin acting like a Prince of Weston. I’m not going to be around forever, so you may as well get used to doing things you’re uncomfortable with.”

Michael took a deep breath, knowing that any further resistance would do no good.

“I understand, father,” he said. “I’ll do my best.”

“I know you will, son,” Stephen said. “I know you’ll make me proud.”

Jung Heewon, who was able to intervene in the duel, stopped Yoo Joonghyuk's sword instead of me. Lee Hyunsung ran and hugged Yoo Joonghyuk's body from behind while the children surrounded me like they were protecting me. Lee Jihye stood in the middle with a helpless expression. "Why are the two of you fighting? Fighting now…!" Yoo Joonghyuk's gaze alternated between the party members. It seemed like he wanted to say something. No, I knew what he wanted to say. 「 You are being deceived. 」 His trembling eyes were pouring rage towards me. 「 This guy, he deceived all of us. 」 I thought this day would come eventually. In fact, I thought about it dozens of times a day. "Everybody, get out of the way." Yoo Joonghyuk amplified his status, blew away Lee Hyunsung, knocked down Lee Jihye and ran this way. Jung Heewon and Yoo Joonghyuk's swords collided. However, Jung Heewon couldn't use Judgment Time and wasn't capable of dealing with Yoo Joonghyuk. I placed the children behind me and stepped forward.

It was all going so well! 😭😭😭

Oh man, I've really wanted to see Joonghyuk's reaction to being a character for a while now and so I am happy that we've finally reached the part where the characters of the novel have learned or will soon learn the truth but man, the pain. Now I'm just conflicted.

You guys are supposed to be Life and Death Companions!

Don't kill your Life and Death Companion, Joonghyuk!

Ugh, but it's so understandable. While some of the party has figured it out, most of them haven't and the ones who did weren't characters so they probably felt way differently than poor Joonghyuk finding out that hundreds/thousands of people have read his struggles for entertainment and that Dokja has been passing that off as prophecy.

Ughhhhhhhh I'm almost scared to read more because I don't want to see the entire party fall apart after they've achieved so much or even for Joonghyuk to go back to hating him and doing his own thing but I also need to know what's gonna happen so badly. Ahhhhhhhhhhh.

Warning: Mairimashita! Iruma-kun chapter 352 spoilers (manga)

Can we talk about this? There's so many things going on:

Iruma is given a "special item that can only be used once and can summon whatever you want". From other shounen manga you kinda assume that this item will be saved for later for the arc climax when the MC is in a tight spot, but no, he uses immediatly

Which bring us to the second thing and that is Iruma is becoming more a demon by the day. He is becoming greedy, impatient, while still being a cinnamon roll which is awesome since we see him change but at the same time stay his self which is a hard thing to write IMO

And the most wholesome thing, what does iruma summon??? AZZ and CLARIN askfjsjkasdhjkasdf. Do you see Iruma's face when he says "There's something I really, really want" and on the next panel you see Clara and Alice beaming I can't- My heart-

There's also the world building going on in this chapter with the many ears race and the previous conversation with Bachiko but then i'll never be done yapping

I can't stress enough how good this manga is

(Tho it plays with my feelings since it makes me thing it'll go on the trio rute but that's just wishful thinking... anyways let's not dampen the mood....)
