A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

"Mr. Bernard? Besides, did you bother to leave a message for Mr. Lewis?

Having heard Louis' words, Reurus leaned his neck strangely.

Bernard, who leads the First Magic Corps, the national army of Mataroi, was involved in a “mock battle” when he visited the King's City before, but his former colleague, Natalia, believes that he is not a close friend.

I think it is a respectable opponent, such as the experience of battle accumulated in excellent technology, and the ability to use superior lightning magic called "sky lightning".

"Ah... you said you'd be in trouble if you brought your legs here directly. I wasn't that close to him, so I was surprised by his sudden visit."

Louis answers Reurus' questions with a grin. Was it because Lewis had a “fairly” close relationship with Lewis or because he thought he would visit Lewis?

"Everything seems to have a stinky movement in the court. It seems to have something to do with you, Reurus, so I want you to be careful."

"Hmm... that's what Bernard did..."

Reurus thinks it's a strange power relationship, asking for a message from Lewis, who is superior to the throne, and Lewis accepts it. Unlike such a Reurus, Natalia did not seem to have doubts about Lewis becoming a “Messenger of the Message” and was conscious of the fact that Bernard had deliberately told him to be vigilant.

"He's a quasi-bar, right? Wouldn't it be rude... to ask Mr. Lewis to leave a message?

Naturally, Natalia knows more about people for Bernard and the situation in King's City. Therefore, Natalia leaves the inference to her, and Reurus asks if she can extract any other information.

I don't think so, but it's also possible that Bernard asked for a message. As for Reurus, it is very uncomfortable that Baron Bernard asked Count Lewis to leave a message.

"Hahaha, that benevolence is a living legend that I fought in the King's army before I was born. He's amazing enough to lose his sense of greatness because of his high throne. Not officially, of course."

Louis answers the probing Reurus question with a light laugh.

"Well, to make it easier for me to tell you... you're a spiritual“ guest ”, also known as a" spiritualist ", and you'll soon become a quasi-bar. If Lord Gilba asked you to do something, would you turn it down on the basis of your status?

"I doubt if Gilba is in the bracket of a civilian... I see, I understand."

"Am I right? Even if Jilba asked me to do something like that, it's hard for me to say no. He's as famous as Lord Bernard... no, but in King's Landing, is he more famous than Lord Gilba?

It is Gilba who walks the streets to take down monsters, capture bandits, and turn them over to nearby towns and villages. It is widely known along with the name "Punishment", and its visibility is very high.

It was a Reurus who hammered at Lewis's story, but he threw words because he had other questions.

"But this is how you advised me, Mr. Bernard, are you familiar with the court's movements? I'm going to get angry if I say this, but I feel like I'm going my way without worrying about it....."

Even if the court nobles complain, they will say, "Speak with a spear, not a word." Reurus thinks it's someone who could break through from the front, even if they set up a plot.

But it was Natalia, not Louis, who answered Reurus' question.

"As captain of the King's army, we also need to pay some attention to the court's movements. Read what the“ top ”thinks from the work assigned to the King's army, and if necessary, root it out."

"... it's a tough part of any workplace."

"Yes, the King's Capital isn't sweet enough to survive with a spear... No, he would still survive."

Natalia denies it while saying it herself. There was a bitter smile on his face, and Bernard said he would be able to jump politics and manoeuvres out of his own hands.

"But even if you're careful, what exactly should I do? You're not buying the unhappiness of any court nobles while you're unaware and sending assassins, are you?

Intercept if you do such a thing, but if you attack Reurus, Spiritualism is also likely to turn to enemies. Until I took such a risk, I couldn't think of any reason why I should be targeted by others.

"That's right, I wouldn't take that direct action. However, what Bernard realized was that the King's army was involved... most likely in exchange for some sort of" job ”for the Sylas?

"I see... what do you think is unlikely for Mr. Lewis?

Even if you shake some kind of job, it will be difficult to predict its content. Lewis leaned his neck when asked by Reurus who wanted to prepare for the worst.

"Isn't it the taller one? I see... will you be questioned about joining the King's army? Baron Amondola, what is the status quo of the King's army? He's as good as Reurus, and if he's a quasi-bar, I think he can screw him into the position of captain."

"I will succeed the First Magic Team... and Bernard will know what to think. Otherwise, if you suddenly throw yourself into the position of captain, the team won't move properly. It might be possible to cut off Baron Amendura from the realm and put him in some kind of squad, and in a few years he'll be captain..."

"As far as the court nobles are concerned, there is nothing to gain from doing that. is that something else?"

Louis thinks with his hand on his jaw, but it's also a noble painting to worry about.

"I don't know what's going on right now... but I didn't hear about a case that might need to move Reurus."

"Me too... but I don't have much information because it's not a long day since I visited King's Landing. Still, I didn't expect you to bother asking Reurus for anything...."

Natalia and Louis seem to have no idea, and Reurus drinks tea with a narrow shoulder.

(You and Louis don't even know... what kind of creature the court nobles and I don't know, but it looks embarrassing.)

If you slay it with a sword, you'll have to deal with it, but if you don't, you'll have trouble dealing with it as a revus.

(Someone who seems to be familiar with the situation in King's Landing... Mr. Sofia? But when I asked him that, it seemed like he owed me a lot....)

Sofia's face appeared behind Reurus' head, but if we were to put together the cathedral, there would be enough information. As a Marquis, Reurus seems to know the most about the King's Capital.

"When is it likely that the Naruto will be?

"I have already informed the court that I have arrived in King's Landing, and as soon as I can make adjustments... perhaps within a week."

"It's been a week at most... let's meet up with some of our acquaintances and explore. It's not a joke to be swayed by a court nobleman."

That said, Louis smiled reliably, but as a Reurus, he couldn't wipe out his strange anxiety.

And five days later.

Natalia seemed to be ready sooner than expected, and Reus, who was told by the messengers to come to the royal castle to perform the Syrah's ritual, was chased by the preparations early in the morning.

I have tried to gather information since I received Bernard's message, but it has not been as successful as I thought.

Though I was afraid of “borrowing” as a realuse, I visited Sofia, but I couldn't get the information I expected, and I ended up challenging the Syrah without help.

It seems that the nobles in the King's City - Natalia, Louis, Marquis Grimer, Marquis Sardari, and even Sofia - face the rituals of the Syriac, not helplessness.

However, Reurus' mood is aggregated into one.

(I don't want to go...)

I can't run away now, but if you ask me if I want to go, I will shake my head sideways. Reurus wears the costume he bought on his last trip to King's Landing and sighs deeply inside what is not on the front.

(As an apology for the trouble caused by the product I made at my place, it seems like when I go to explain the future response together with lowering my head to the other person's company on the morning off... that? Were you resting in the first place?

Reurus, who somehow remembered his previous life, felt extra gloomy. It wasn't originally a casual story, but Bernard went out of his way to draw attention through Louis, so the hassle and embarrassment was a bunny climb.

Still, he couldn't get away, and Reurus checked again to see if he had any problems with his outfit. The design is similar to a black tuxedo, and the clothes that you would never normally wear have a strong feeling of unfamiliarity, making it seem like you are “wearing clothes” as a revulsion.

(Even if the Dragon Slash is really useless, I can't at least take a dagger with me....)

Sometimes it's the royal castle, so we need to leave all our weapons and armor behind. Like Marquis Sardari, the Imperial Castle's messengers never told me that they were perfectly armed as usual.

Of course, I understand that if soldiers other than Reurus bring weapons to the royal castle, it will be bad. It is an act that cannot be complained of even if killed, such as when a person who meets directly with the King brings a weapon.

As a result, Reurus was unarmed and dressed, sighing several times.

"What's wrong with sighing?

Corona, who was helping to prepare for what the Reurus looked like, leaned her neck.

"It's troublesome just to be a quasi-bar, but I feel like I'm expecting trouble...."

Corona doesn't feel like hiding, and Reurus laughs bitterly and reveals his heart. Corona glanced at the words of Reurus and broke her face.

"... fufufu"

"Corona?

Whether there was any element of laughter, Reurus leans his neck. Corona waved in a hurry.

"Wow, I'm sorry for laughing... but I don't think Mr. Reurus is going to change even though he's going to be a quasi-bar."

"Because it's not what I wanted... is there anything weird behind it?

"Hmm... I'm fine. Ah, but the collar is a little distorted."

I asked Corona to check because I couldn't see the back side, but as for the corona, the collar was more worried. Reach out and straighten your collar, peeking into Reurus' eyes as you look up from the front.

"I don't know what the royal castle is, but... please be careful.

"If I can handle it carefully... I'm coming."

Most of the gloomy feelings in my chest were blown away, either because I spoke with Corona. With that in mind, Reurus boarded a carriage run by Nicolas to accompany Natalia to the imperial castle.
