Henkyou Gurashi no Maou, Tensei shite Saikyou no Majutsushi ni naru - Vol. 11 Ch. 48 - The Old Trail of the Ancient Village and the Jet-Black Lord

[Shuzuchi]

Why is calling someone "a good person" so embarassing? Is that a bad translation or just preposterous levels of repression?

 

[AnotherDuck]

At least they still remember Martha exists.

It's more of him giving formal declaration that the 'dispatch help' will be Iris, since she already stated her desire to go.

Iris then in turn plan to use that 'royal decree' to her benefit.

shouldn't this authority on the king? especially if the king is not absent or still able to authorize any order. Especially Iris is mobilizing help in the name of country when the Torus ask for help

not sure, but besides his high position in the magic guild, isn't he the crown prince??

Yuuki already with 3 wives, you can't say Odette isn't part of the list already, Iris just have to acknowledge her.

indeed he has high position in the magic guild, but I think the request comes to the state and state answer this. But I think it should be King who authorize this.

No, otherwise the country wouldn't be able to run without the king authorizing everything.
He doesn't have as much authority as the king, but he's still 2nd prince.
Similarly mage elder here also has his own authority to do things (him suggesting giving Yuuki C-rank)
