◆ Dark Knight Croki
Fly over the starry sky to reach the labyrinth city of Lavryuntos.
Lavulus, the Lord of the Labyrinth, is gone.
The demon was taken away by the serpent queen.
The Minotaurs, who followed Lawrence, also escaped the labyrinth and went somewhere.
The surface part of the labyrinth that has lost the Lord. Lower Glorious to the central square.
The square is filled by Glorious giants.
"Kuna, I'm coming down. Okay?"
Kuna nods when she asks.
Nice work, Croki.
I get off holding the couna I was riding with.
Multiple shadows emerge from surrounding buildings as you descend from Glorious.
I've been expecting you, Master Kuna
The shadow lowers his head.
It was Rijena who came out.
"Thank you, Regina. Please come."
Rijena is his messenger. As an apostle, Rijena is connected to herself, so she can be in touch at any time.
While I'm sightseeing in Kuna and the Republic of Ariadia, I'm going to leave Glorious in Rijena.
That's why I got you here.
This place is perfect for hiding Glorious.
There are Lizardmen around the Rijena.
"No, sir, if you ask me, I'm going anywhere."
Rijena said with her eyes shining.
I feel sorry for seeing that.
Actually, I didn't intend to contact Rijena at first.
Glorious was going to find somewhere to hide.
However, it feels cold not to contact me even though I am nearby.
So I contacted Rijena and she offered to take care of me while I was in Ariadia.
I was lost when I heard the offer, but I decided to sweeten the words after all.
And to tell you the truth, it's hard to stay in decent accommodation without citizenship.
That's why I appreciated Rijena's offer.
"I'm sorry, Regina, I'll take care of you. And thank you for Glorious."
I bowed my head to Rijena and Lizardman.
The Labyrinth is now under the control of Haybos God, but until it's ready, the Light Warrior will be in charge.
To be precise, it is under the control of Kyoka, the sister of the Light Warrior.
And on Kyoka's orders, Rijena has become the substantive manager of the labyrinth.
That's why no one enters this labyrinth without Rijena's permission.
Putting Glorious here won't be a problem.
Lizardman will take care of Glorious again because he believes in dragons.
"Yes, Milord. I'll take care of Glorious. And then this...."
When Rijena stares, Lizardman brings a small box.
When Rijena opens the box, a beautiful costume emerges from inside.
"What is this?
"It's Milord and Kuna's costume. Kuna stands out, so I thought I might need a costume."
"I see... Thank you, Regina. From what? Okay, Kuna, put this on."
He takes his clothes in his hand and gives them to Kuna, who is lying flat on his side.
Kuna has calmed down compared to the previous one.
It looks like there's no more hostility against Rijena.
This is a good trend. What the hell happened?
"What is this, Croki?
"It's a costume to hide. Because Kuna is beautiful, walking as she is will attract attention. I came to visit Ariadia in the corner, so I don't want strange people to stop by."
As beautiful as Lena, Kuna needs to hide her face when walking through the Republic of Ariadia.
That's why Rijena prepared the costume.
"Beautiful... Yeah, I got it, Croki. Kuna, let's get dressed."
Delighted to be said to be beautiful, Kuna wraps up her costume while Rijena helps her.
When Kuna wraps up her costume, she looks like a noble lady who believes in the goddess Feria.
The costume also has a veil to hide Kuna's face.
"It's kind of hard to move..."
Kuna sounds dissatisfied.
"Sorry, Kuna. Hang in there, I'll pull you by my hand."
If you walk with your face out, you will be in trouble. That's why you have to hide your face when you walk through Ariadia.
"Kuroki pulls me? Then there's nothing wrong with this outfit."
Kuna will convince me.
"Good... Then I'll get dressed myself."
When I remove the Dark Knight's armor, I change it into prepared clothes.
Unlike Kuna, the clothes belong to a servant man.
You'll look like a lady and her servant when you line up with Kuna in this.
"Was it a little too plain?
Rijena sounds anxious.
"No, it's fine. I don't like flashy."
I don't like to stand out.
That's why the clothes Rijena prepared were just fine.
Rijena was in charge of her clothes when she was in Nargor.
That's why I know my preferences.
"Then Rijena. They're still here, aren't they?
I ask Rijena.
"Yes, the Light Warriors are still in this country. I will stay in this country until at least tomorrow's celebration....."
According to Rijena, a celebration will be held to celebrate Raj, the hero of light, who rescued people caught in the labyrinth, but as a result of adjusting the schedule of dignitaries from various countries who wanted to attend the celebration, the date was slightly delayed.
That's why Reggie and the others are still in this country.
"Really... But it seems stupid to care about both... Well, you wouldn't have noticed if it were normal. So don't worry, I'll enjoy sightseeing in Ariadia."
The Republic of Ariadia is wide. I don't think it's going to be easy.
"Okay, Milord. Let's head to the Republic of Ariadia. There is a separate house in Turmarkis. The Shirone-sensei won't notice. I'll show you."
Thank you, Regina.
This is how they headed for the Republic of Ariadia.
◆ Dancer Shenna
"Where the hell did you go for that drink?!
I walk the city at night in search of Marshas.
Marshas is a member of the same troupe as me, Roba's Ear.
Tomorrow we must dance in front of the brave men of light.
That idiot hasn't come home yet.
That's why Commander Midas asked me to find Marshas.
"Shenna, why don't you go find Marcus?
I remember the words of Commander Midas.
I'm sorry about Captain Midas, but I think it was a mistake to put Marshas in the troupe.
However, the Honourable Einoye introduced Marshas to Commander Midas and allowed him to join the army as it was.
Marshas is a troubled man.
He is a former thief.
And he likes gambling and alcohol and is always drunk.
That's why we should get rid of that defect right away.
But Commander Midas won't shake his head vertically.
Because the troupe is understaffed.
Especially the number of choirs and music teams behind is insufficient.
Marshas' flute talent is certain, and no one else in the troupe can win.
Marcus himself sometimes slaps his whistle more than the Alphonse god.
Even if I am careful that I may be able to peel my skin if I say such a thing, I don't think I am willing to change it.
However, although it may not be as powerful as Alphonse God, the strength of the whistle is certain.
That's why Commander Midas is so distracted by Marshas' actions.
I sigh.
Commander Midas understands the love of singing and dancing well.
The leader is a follower of Ishtia, the goddess of dance, and Alphonse, the god of songs.
For such a commander, it doesn't matter what other problems he has.
However, if Marcias causes problems, the theater group's activities may be banned.
I know you're short of people, but why can't the Commander think of it?
And Mr. Ainoe is also a samurai. Where did they come from?
Walking with that in mind leads to the destination.
This area is quite far from the center.
There are many illegal residents from outside, and the security is poor.
The walking man is also bad.
Walking down the street, there are many signs of liquor cups hanging from the house of the building.
The seal of the sake cup is the holy seal of the sake god Nectl.
This hallowed sign indicates that the house is a tavern and inn.
There must be Marcus somewhere in this store.
That drink must be drunk somewhere.
There are many travellers walking along the street.
A female clerk is inviting the traveler.
They are both bartenders and prostitutes.
I work as a clerk in the dining room on the first floor and sleep with guests in the bedroom on the second floor.
Prostitution is prohibited in this country, but it is silent.
Of course I have no intention of complaining about their actions.
They are followers of Ishtia like me.
Ishtia, who speaks of free love, is the god of dance and the god of prostitutes.
With that in mind, I look for Marshas and enter the alley.
Sometimes I get drunk and sleep in the alley.
As he walks, three men stand in front of him.
This is a bad idea, trying to get back on the road.
But looking back, there was a big man standing there.
"Let's go, sister. Looking for someone."
A big man calls me.
"Yeah, I'm looking for someone, but what is it?
I look at big men.
"Maybe we can help. What do you say we find him?
"I'm sorry... I'm not going to use your help."
"Don't be so cold."
A man reaches out.
"Don't touch me!!
I can give up my hand.
"Damn, you're a strong woman. Well... I'm going to go out with you for a while."
A man smiles inferiorly.
I sigh.
Touch the curved sword on your left and right hips.
I have confidence in my arms. As far as these movements are concerned, they don't seem to be strong. You'll be able to beat me.
But it's going to be a problem later.
I'm sorry, but I can't deal with you guys.
Probably the pussy freedom fighters who don't even have the money to pay the tavern lady.
This is the worst race in the world, forcing weak humans to fight without monsters.
It is troublesome to make them the best opponents.
I run to the side wall.
"What?!!
I don't mind a fellow man screaming.
When I kick the wall, I run up and fly back behind the big guy.
And run and run.
"Fuck you!!
There is no fool to wait for me to tell you to wait.
I ran away from the city at night.
And once we get here, we'll be fine. I exhale.
"Shenna"
I can suddenly make a call.
There was a man standing there.
A man is wearing leather armor over a clasp. And around the chest of the leather armor is the holy mark of the god Oedis.
The Knight of the Law who belongs to the Temple of Audis. The Knights of Law are those who investigate crimes and maintain law and order.
"Brother Dekius."
The knight of the law was my brother, Dekius.
◆ Dancer Shenna
Walk down the back street with my brother Dekius.
I gave up on Marshas.
This area is safer than the area we were patrolling earlier.
I remember the other day.
The patrol was conducted in an area lined with inns, etc.
The Republic of Ariadia has a large number of travellers from the outside, as it is the crux of traffic linking the east and west of the continent.
However, there are many foreigners in particular now.
The reason is because of the hero of light. People from neighboring countries are coming to the Republic of Ariadia to see him at a glance.
And there are bandits targeting such foreigners.
That's why my brother, a knight of the law, was patrolling.
The roads along the waterway have few lights, but today the moon is rising, so you can see the surroundings without using the magic of lighting.
"Niisan, you look good. Perfect for a serious brother. I feel like Master Audis's knight."
I look at my brother's outfit and say.
Me and my brother Dekius grew up in the temple of Ishtia in Tessecia.
My mother is Ishpasia, a famous dancer and witch of Ishtia.
So I met and fell in love with Nakius Pelicletos, the knight of Audis.
However, the Ordis knight and Ishtia's witch, who insisted on free love, could not be formally married. They were to be separated.
But my brother was a good man, and my father's right-wife didn't die without a child. My brother was taken over by his father as his successor.
Then I stopped seeing him very often, but sometimes I came to the temple to see how I was.
"Haha, I'm still in school... What about you? I thought you were doing something dangerous.
My brother remembers what happened earlier and says.
"I didn't do anything dangerous."
I vomit cheeky lies.
Unlike Audis, Ishtia is not forbidden to lie.
"Really? I can't believe I'm selling my body...."
"I didn't. You know my brother. Sometimes I'm in a troupe. And now I'm going to play the lead role."
I go around in front of my brother.
Children raised in the temple of Ishtia must live away from the temple when they grow up.
Most girls become prostitutes, but I didn't choose the path.
Ishtia is the god of prostitutes, but she will not be forced to become a prostitute.
Instead, I chose the actor's path.
Ishtia is also the god of entertainers such as dancers and actors. That is why I, a believer of Ishtia, should choose the path of the actor.
I was recognized as a dancer by Commander Midas and was able to join the troupe "Roba's Ear".
I have now been given the lead role at the Alphonse Theatre in the Republic of Ariadia. This is quite a feat.
I'm sorry about Ainoe, but I still want to play the lead role.
"Yeah, I know. It was definitely Alferia. I'll be sure to check it out."
The next play will be in Alferia.
It's the story of a brave princess who goes to rescue a lover taken by a witch.
The opening has been postponed for the feast of the brave. But I definitely want my brother to come and see it.
"Yeah, I'm sure. Don't forget to check it out, brother."
My brother nods.
"But, Shenna. Could you give me an answer to what I said before?
I see my brother.
"Are you talking about it again? I'm not converting. I love Ishtia. It doesn't matter if you can't get married."
My brother wants to take me in and be a Feria.
But I don't intend to do that.
I'm just like my mother. I am proud to be a believer in Ishtia.
So it doesn't matter if you can't get married.
You don't have to be formally married to have a de facto marriage.
"But I knew it... I can't get married forever....."
My brother talks so hard.
I wonder if my brother, who became an Audis believer, would not be allowed to do business with men and women who were not formally married.
That's why you say that.
"Say that already. You're not getting married, are you? I hear you have a lot of connections."
I tell my brother.
My brother is beautiful from my sister's point of view.
Many princesses in neighboring countries want to marry their brother.
But it seems that my brother has turned it all down.
"That's, no... I'm still practicing. I still can't think of getting married."
I sigh at the words.
My brother is probably overwhelmed.
It seems that there are many things around me about my mother's birth.
That's why he must be acting like an Audis believer.
I also think that my brother's seriousness is worthy of being an Audis believer.
But I wanted to see such a brother fall in love.
But this would be a malicious idea.
And I was walking along the waterway.
I can see people in front of me.
Two men and two women.
I thought they were lovers for a while, but judging by the clothes they were wearing, I think it was some sort of a lady and a servant man.
Probably someone from another country who came to see the brave man of light.
"Are you a foreigner? What are you doing here? It's safer around here, but it's still dangerous to walk at night."
I raise myself up on the shelf and make a stunned voice.
The roads along this waterway are wide, but there are few people and it is dangerous to walk around here during the day or at night.
Perhaps she is a lady from some country who has visited an acquaintance in a luxury residential neighborhood up ahead.
The atmosphere is like that.
And now is not the time for a princess to walk.
It's too late for something to happen. You might want to be careful.
"Maybe you should be careful... Shenna, why don't you wait here?
My brother sees me and says, "That's what I think."
"Okay. Niisan"
My brother approaches them without me.
They are standing by the waterway on the road and looking up at the moon.
"He who is there. Can I have a word with you?
My brother approaches the two of them and calls out.
A woman looks at us when she speaks.
"Eh...?
Unfortunately, I make a voice.
The woman was too beautiful.
Because the moon is bright, its face can be clearly seen.
White skin as white as white magnetism on a neat face.
Light red lips.
Eyes are as beautiful as stars.
And above all, it is that hair that attracts attention.
Silver hair reflects the moonlight and glistens fantastically.
I couldn't let go anymore.
"What are you..."
A waitress man stops a woman from saying something to us.
"Um... what is it?
A waitress asks.
But I can't keep an eye on women.
"Eh... um..."
My brother is trying to speak up, but he doesn't seem to speak well.
It's not impossible. I've never seen a woman so beautiful.
I know how my brother feels.
"Um... I see you're a knight, but we're just here to see the Light Warrior. I'm not suspicious."
A servant man talks, but his brother still can't speak.
I can't take my gaze off a woman either.
The woman is looking at us with surprising eyes.
Maybe I was distracted.
"Niisan!!
I shout in my brother's ear.
So my brother seems to have returned to me.
"Eh..."
"Look, I have to say it right!!
"Ah... ahh! Night is dangerous! Please don't run too far!!
My brother's voice flipped.
And see how she reacts.
Cold eyes. What are you talking about?
"Really... Thank you very much. So let's do this."
A servant man says so and leaves with a silver-haired woman.
"You were so beautiful, brother. I accidentally fell in love with you...."
I call out to my brother from behind.
But my brother didn't react.
"Hey, brother?
I shouted, but kept staring in the direction in which the two had left.
"Lady Goddess... That's the Moonlight Goddess...."
My brother mutters.
My face is moist.
I saw the moment when my brother fell in love.
◆ Dark Knight Croki
"Welcome home. Master Kuna."
Rijena will pick you up when you return to Turmarkis's separate residence.
I was walking around the city at night with Kuna the other day.
It's still early to go to bed. That's why I went to see the city at night.
Thank you for picking me up, Regina.
Kuna says with her chest stretched.
That state of affairs is completely mistress.
Thank you for your welcome, Regina.
I work for Regina myself.
"Fufu, you're welcome, Milord. How was your evening walk?
"It was good inside. Rijena, Ariadia sees more things than any other country."
The Republic of Ariadia is the largest human country I have ever seen.
In other small countries it gets dark at night, but in the Republic of Ariadia there are bright spots at night and plenty of entertainment.
However, some of them were quite obscene, so it was difficult to go with Kuna.
According to research, lodging in this world also serves as a restaurant.
The owner of the inn is often a believer of the sake god Nectar, and the seal of Nectar is lowered at the inn's shop.
Guests eat, drink, and gamble in the canteen on the first floor.
And they invite female employees, who are also prostitutes, to sleep with them upstairs.
Even in this world, men's entertainment is drinking, beating, and buying.
However, since the goddess Feria has a strong faith in the country, it cannot be roughly changed.
But you can't suppress people's desires. These gambling and prostitution are open secrets.
And I couldn't bring Kuna into such a place, so I ended up just taking a walk.
Well, the moon was beautiful tonight, so that was good.
The moonlit couna was fantastic and very beautiful.
Nevertheless, I feel that Kuna has become more beautiful than before.
Sometimes I can't keep an eye on Kuna.
However, it seems that the person in question is not aware of anything.
A knight-like man on patrol was also in love with Kuna as he looked up at the moon.
I remember talking and never seeing me.
The most stared Kuna seems to have forgotten about the knight.
That knight didn't seem to realize, but Kuna was magically trying to kill him.
If I hadn't stopped, I would have been dead.
And that knight had a beautiful woman with him.
If you look at what I used to call my brother, are you my brother or sister?
I'm sure he didn't look like a lover.
"By the way, Regina. Are you ready?
Kuna suddenly asks Rijena.
"Yes, Mr. Kuna. I have a bath ready."
"Okay, then, Croki. I'm coming with you."
That's what Kuna pulls.
"No... that's not good. I have Rijena."
It would be a big deal to do such a thing. Mainly in the lower body sense.
"That's fine, Croki. Regina, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let you in with me. This won't be a problem."
Kuna laughs.
Kuna seems to think it's a good idea, but that would be even more problematic.
First Rijena would hate it.
"Really! Thank you, Master Kuna! I'll join you then!!
But against expectations, Rijena seems happy.
And even Rijena pulls herself into the bath.
Kuna and Rijena grabbed him and pulled him.
I couldn't resist because I was overwhelmingly stronger.
◆ Marcus the Little Bad Man
Walk the dark underground road.
I don't feel good no matter how many times I come.
After walking for a while, he comes to an open place.
There are several women there.
All the women are dressed in black.
And in the back of the room where the women are standing a statue of Saturus with a goat's head.
This place is an altar. It seems that the women have been praying all along.
Hello, Marshas.
One of the women looks at us.
A beautiful woman in her mid-twenties.
But I know this woman is not what she looks like.
"Hehe Ainoe. What do you want me to call you here all of a sudden? I have a lot to do here, too. I have to play in front of that brave man tomorrow."
I say with a humble smile. [M]
"That's what I'm talking about. Marshas, you're going to play in front of the brave with that crazy little girl tomorrow, aren't you? I wasn't called."
Ainoe says with regret.
I suppose it's about Shenna that you call a strange little girl.
My daughter wants to lick her feet.
Ainoe hates Shenna.
Until recently, she was the best flower-shaped actress in the troupe "Roba's Ear".
But now Shenna is overtaking me.
Shenna took the lead in the next play, and she thinks it's not funny.
Besides, I don't seem to like that only Shenna was called at the courageous reception tomorrow.
I've been called, but I'm just an asshole.
I'm supposed to be dressed as Saturus tomorrow and dancing whistling. In other words, it's clowning.
"I can't help saying that. That's my job."
I shake my head with my hands up.
"Hmm, it's okay. Marshas, don't take this."
Ainoe will bring us something.
"Is this a whistle?
I look at what's been given to me and say.
"That's right. Blowing that whistle will allow the monster to appear and manipulate it. So I want you to kill that little girl."
Ainoe said that she didn't fly easily.
"Are you going to kill Shenna...?
I didn't think Ainoe hated Shenna that much.
"Yes, kill that little girl... Make it look like you're targeting a guest at a banquet. Do it well so they don't know we're the killers."
The face of Ainoe who said that was gloomy.
Crazy.
The women on the side also giggled and laughed.
All of us here are witches.
All of them were inspired by Black Saturus.
And I'm a sacrificial sheep.
Look at the whistle given.
There was a black goat's head crest drawn on it.
