A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

(Suddenly, this guy...)

Reurus was surprised to hear Sofia's remarks. Sophia, who suddenly told her what she would have hidden until then, sighed as she shook her cheek cane at her desk with bad manners.

"I don't know... even if I were you, I wouldn't be able to show you such a miracle... well, it's" I can't help it ”.

"I don't know what to do... but it's hard for me to believe if what I'm talking about is true."

"You have no choice but to believe me... if you say I swear on my family name and the Great Spirit?

"No, that's...."

It would be enough to believe “normally”, but I can't honestly believe it as a revus when the opponent becomes Sofia.

"Right? That's why I'm talking to you on my own... Ah, Natalia-san? If the bishop there tries to kill me, will you stop him?

"It depends on why you changed your mind.”

"Wow, that's Natalia-san, that's tough... isn't that where you nod in silence?

Sofia sighs again at Natalia's words. And when the corona that was moving around as a service was brewed again and I drank a sip of green tea, I frowned as if I had drunk something bitter.

"The truth is, Reurus wanted you to go to King's Lands all over Mataroi and destroy the bandits and monsters hiding nearby... Ah, this is about His Majesty the King, right? So, with that achievement... I asked Mr. Reurus in advance to extend the development period of Natalia's territory, provide financial assistance, and so on... that was the original plan."

"Hmm...."

Unlike the current situation, it is a request and reward that is easy to accept as a reuse. If Baron Amondola can buy time or get the money to get on track, it's worth it.

As far as the original is concerned, it is a story that cannot already be realized.

"Grab the story that the Gregorians are gathered in the western part of Mataroy. You'll hunt down monsters while you're on the move, and I'll keep an eye on them until you sneak around. The neighbors will be safe for now. But I'm not acting strange."

"What's so funny?

"I didn't even hear about a powerful monster, but it seems the bishop is coming out. It's not alone, it's plural. I thought this was strange, so I let the spy find out....."

"When Rebecca finds out you're being pushed back... don't you know what they're after?

When Reurus asks, Sofia slightly turns away.

"I can't tell if it's true or not, but it was in a letter to me. Did you know that some of the Gregorians are called extremists?

"I don't know what you know, but they were the first people to kill each other when you found out about Gregorianism."

"Yeah... well, I wonder what to say. If you're an orthodox face, you can still go out with the upper echelons of Mataroi. These guys are more like a bunch of samurai than religious guys... do you have any strong monsters? All right, then let's fight! It's like"

Without talking about the other person's purpose, Sofia tells them to complain. However, the content was satisfactory as a revulsion.

(Orthodox... whatever Chris or Tina is, he's probably of the “hands” type.)

Reurus whispers in his heart as he remembers what happened to Kanna before. Then Sofia laughed in trouble.

"Unlike such righteousness, extremists are really troublesome... but as far as the way they move, they're obviously preparing for the big guy. I told you it was the west side of Mataroi, but to be precise... there's a little plain, but it looks like it's nearby."

"Big guy? Are there strong monsters around here?

"There's no one around."

"... what do you mean?

As Reurus leans his neck, Sofia holds her hand in her pocket and pulls out a pure white handkerchief. And I thought I had spread it over my desk, and I started to draw pictures on handkerchiefs, sticking my fingers into the green tea that I was drinking.

"... Sofia, you've got a lot to lose.

"Compared to the ugliness just now, it's better at all... well, here's the thing."

A light green line is pulled onto the handkerchief to create some form. Reurus, peering into the handkerchief, leaned his neck and questioned.

"What is this, graffiti?

"Why do you imitate me in this situation... it's pretty cluttered, but it's a map of this country."

Sofia, who talks like that, drew a diagram that collapsed the triangle slightly to the right. Reurus pulls his cheeks slightly into the clutter, as Sofia herself says.

--But as the story progresses, Reurus will pull his cheeks in a different way.

"So, this is the King's City, a little north of the center. There's a Gregorian in the northwest from there... here's the problem. From King's Landing to the south-east... or do you know what“ south-east of this country ”is?

"... Southeast?

Roughly speaking, there is the abandoned city of Laval when you descend south from King's Landing. That's why Reus remembered traveling east from the abandoned city of Laval - no way.

"If it's not my fault, it looks like there's a volcano called Veos...."

"Well, you think so too... I think so too. There's a volcano where the Fire Dragon lives...."

That's how Sofia traces her fingers on the handkerchief. From where the Veos volcano existed to the King's City and where the Gregorians were.

"... vah... you think you're going to call the Fire Dragon and intercept it?

"Probably... in the meantime, I think I'll be able to“ scrape ”the Fire Dragon..."

"No... how far do you think it is from Volcano Veos? Even if I could distract the Fire Dragon, it would take days just to move...."

Reurus remembers that Rebecca was there.

(With Rebecca's Winged Dragon, we can move at a speed that is not visible to humans... I'm sure we can't beat Vanier, but if we move around with villages and towns all over Mataroi...?

It's just a possibility, but it doesn't seem feasible. However, as a realuse, "one thing” ruined everything.

(But does he move? I wouldn't hesitate to intercept the Gregorians if they attacked us, but they went after the villages and towns on the way, and they attacked the King's City, and from there, they went after the Gregorians... no, they didn't.)

Gregorians - If they were as skilled as bishops, Vanille would have fought with great joy, but they wouldn't have done anything to destroy Mataroi from the ground up. Rather than engaging in the “work of men”, it is nothing but a crushing and ravaging act.

In other words, the likelihood that the Gregorian plot will succeed is close to zero. That's why Reurus stares at Sofia.

"Sophia-san... I don't want to lie for this period. If you really know, could you tell me the“ true purpose ”of the Gregorians?

Reurus sighed and asked, Sophia leaned her neck with a neat face.

"True purpose? What are you talking about?

"No, what are you talking about?"

"I know you want to move the Reurus to keep it from happening, but shouldn't we move the Reurus as well as the Bernards?

Reurus' words were blocked, and Eliza ran into doubt. When he heard that, Reurus raised his eyebrows small, but wondered what the point was because Eliza deliberately sandwiched her mouth.

(... wait. I can assure you, I know Vannille's personality, but what if he doesn't? Isn't it strange to think that if you attack, you'll follow me...?

Reurus has spoken to Vanier many times. I have understood the character to some extent and even had a fight. From that experience, it would be impossible to “fish" Vanille from the Veos volcano to King's Landing. However, it is not strange for others to make different decisions.

"I told you the second and third magic squads are paying, right? If there are any Gregorians on their way to Veos volcano while pretending to patrol the region, we'll take them down. As far as Bernard is concerned, I don't want to move him out of King's Landing in case of" what if ”...."

While saying that, Sofia stares straight back at Reurus' eyes.

"There's a talented man who's rubbing against the Gregorian Church and still seems to be able to defeat the bishop... even if you lie about your request, you want to bump into him, right? It's going to take a while, and it's not going to work yet, and if we can get some bishops down, we'll be able to get rid of Mataroi easily."

"... when I heard that, I stopped wanting to move."

Reurus thought it would end with a broken Gregorian bone. But Sofia shook her head sideways.

"I told you this was the information our spy brought. I'm not entirely sure I trust you, but if it's true," I've told you. "

"Exactly... the bishop Rebecca said he moved to the righteous, and maybe he wants to crush the extremists."

Natalia, who had kept her mind shut until then, asks her to affirm Sofia's story.

"What is Teko? Was that part of what Count Doria wanted me to do?

He was dead if he succeeded, but Reurus asked with his eyebrows raised. Sophia then strayed again.

"... as far as that Vicomte's daughter is concerned, it's a completely different story." Somehow, the nobility of the court... those who are likely to be danced by rumors and erupt, those who escape without doubt, and those whose houses are likely to blow up as a result... It is an opportunity to take territory and other things from the nobles with territory. I won't let you escape. "

"... you weren't manipulated by magic, 'protection', or magic instruments?

"You don't need that to manipulate people. It's possible to fall into trouble if the situation, attitude and words are aligned, and some court nobles are good at that kind of control."

Reurus looked up at the ceiling in trouble to Sofia, who vomited a lot about the problems of the Viscount Doria following the Gregorians.
