Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Two Hundred Thirty-seven True Black (IV)

Setuna's return to the King's Capital was about that evening.

It was thanks to Urk that we were able to travel long distances from the Apostolic Forest site to the Wang capital in just a few hours. Setsuna, along with Rem and Ragna, grabbed onto Urk's arm and experienced her fast travel. Running through the earth and traveling like flying through the air was just such a thing as a combat weapon, and Setuna could not forbid surprises. And quickly reaching from the Forest of the Apostles to Gandion, the King's capital, was that the open mouth could not be blocked, and it was also convincing that the Rems appeared on the site of the Forest of the Apostles.

Even though it was a short trip, the sky was stained red when Setuna reached Wang Capital, and the opening ceremony of the Royal Summoner's School was over. For this reason, Setuna and the others, who once went to the Royal Summoners School, were to head to the Royal Palace. We must make a report on survival and victory, and the completeness of the black spear.

On the road, Wang Du made a fuss.

The commotion was like the moment Setuna returned to the king's capital, and as she moved from the new city to the old town and the herd city, the commotion propagated throughout the king's capital, swelling up without knowing she would stay. During the ceremony, they were largely informed of the case that Setuna had been taken away. And it also seemed to convey that the culprit who took Setuna was the impostor who had fatally injured Setuna first, and that there seemed to be a large number of people who were anxious about Setuna's safety. Although Setuna's survival had been communicated by Lem, it was true that Setuna's absence had cast a dark shadow on the minds of the citizens of the King's Capital, and it might in some ways have been inevitable that Setuna had survived safely, causing such anxiety to blow up and a festive situation.

"That's a Gandhian hero, isn't it?"

"Mm-hmm. That's not my setuna."

"This is my Setuna."

"He is my master."

Don't hang out with each other.

Setsuna wanted to hold her head in the carriage to the royal palace to the companions who would start a dispute by saying to the Three Kingdoms. The carriage uses what was available for the Royal Summoners School. Apparently, Leongando was keeping me distracted and ready. Leongand would have predicted that Setuna would head to the school first after her return to King's Capital. Setsuna dives through the gates of the Wang capital, does not listen to the surroundings, and aims for the school. I knew the ceremony was over, because I thought there might still be leongands and officials left. But before I got to school, I was beginning to know that the idea was a mistake. During the ceremony, the security around the school, which was extremely strict, was diminished, because I could hear that it was moving into normal condition. Then he entered the school grounds to make sure that the ceremony participants, starting with Leongand, were returning to their respective places.

That's why I wasn't even disappointed. I just took a trip to school to get confirmation. If it meant going back to the royal palace, all we had to do was head to the royal palace. Perhaps the Phalia and the others are also returning to the royal palace.

In the hustle and bustle surrounding the Wang capital, the carriage carrying the Setunas entered the royal palace compartment. Setuna, who stepped out of a carriage parked in front of the Lion's Palace, received a direct welcome from Leongand. I guess I was contacted at the time of the carriage. Naturally it's much faster to fly a horse than a carriage.

When I was greeted by Leongand, there was a full starry sky overhead.

Your Majesty, this Setuna is returning now.

When Setsuna announced his return to Leongando with the most salute, Leongando replied to Setsuna with a full grin.

"Uncle Setuna, safe return, hard work"

The greeting was, that's about it, but that was enough for Setsuna. Because it has been conveyed to Setuna that some of the words contain various thoughts of Leongand.

When he entered the royal palace, he was first allowed to pass during the sight.

It is mostly during the blink of an eye that reports are made.

Between the sight of the King Leongando Ray-Gandhia and the Queen Naj Rae-Gandhia alignment trail, the six sides of Leongando were also in full swing, as were the left and right generals and the captains of the two Royal SS units on the Grand General Algazard Barol-Bargazar. Of course, there is also the Chief of Operations I and II of the General Staff.

Should it also be thanks to the Great Conference on Maldia that we have all the left and right generals who are often away from Wang Capital? If that is not the case, it is unlikely that General Left or Right will be in Wang Capital at the same time. General Left and Right are often dispatched to calm and comfort the newly ruled lands of Gandia. That's Mion, Kruselk, Abard, etc. Although Abad was not only subordinated to Gandhia, there were times when Abad's national power was decreasing, requiring Gandhia to intervene immediately, for which reason General Astar had been dispatched. We are now returning to the King's Capital for the Great Conference, and if we finish our errands in the King's Capital, we will be heading to Abad again. General Deion, on the other hand, had been sent to calm and comfort on the part of Kruselk, which apparently meant that he was perfectly close to being controlled by General Deion's hands. That should be the left eye of the lion king?

In any case, Setuna could not have forbidden nervousness between the stares of her face.

"Uncle Setuna, let's first rejoice in a safe return. I'm more than happy that you survived."

"Your Majesty is right. Uncle Setuna, you are the treasure of this country. I'm so glad I didn't have to lose it."

The King and his wife's words were as if they didn't care about Setuna's victory or defeat, and it conveyed how much they cared about Setuna. Especially when a word of Nage pierces Setuna's chest.

(The treasure... me?

It was an incomprehensible word for Setuna as a real feeling. A treasure, even a treasure in treasure? Anyway, it means that he recognizes me as something so important, and Setsuna recognized herself as trembling with joy. In front of such a king and his wife, Fu Kei, there was nothing but that.

"I can imagine how intense a battle you've had, even from that scratchy look. But I'm not sure what's true. As far as I can. Will you report me?

Leongand has spoken in a gentle tone. Setsuna felt indescribable in her mouth as if she cared about this one's mood.

"Of course you are"

And Setuna reported pretty much everything about the fight against Niewe.

Everything, except Neewe's memory.

"Enough battle to destroy the Apostolic Forest...? It didn't seem like it was going to be like a regular person."

"... if Niewe had no hesitation in involving unrelated others, then worst of all, the Wang Du might have suffered devastating damage"

"As far as I can tell, in that case, we could have been killed."

"... Yes"

Setuna quietly affirmed the words of Leongand, who looked rugged.

Neewe's failure to do anything to humans unrelated to the battle, starting with the Leongands, was nothing but by Neewe's character.

Neewe is an imperial man. For the prince of the Zaion Empire, who is the corner of the three great forces, it is not so much what the royal subjects of one country in the small group of nations have tried to do. Conversely, countries in small groups of nations have no choice but to cry and fall asleep where they have been ravaged by one of the three forces. The power difference is too overwhelming. There's no way I can fathom you, I can't even reward you with one arrow. It's just about being destroyed if you try to stand up to it.

In other words, depending on Niewe's character, he could have taken Leongand and Nage hostage and killed them in order to make Setsuna serious.

No, if you had different personalities, you might have started out not in “showdown," but just killing Setuna. If only to kill Setuna and destroy the black spear, there is no need to make a "showdown” on anything. All you have to do is let Setuna summon a black spear after you take the hostage. It is only because Niewe did not do it because of his personal character and because he was identical to Setuna.

Even if Setsuna were in Niewe's shoes, it would have been the same. Even if you have to win, and you have to kill, you can't take hostages.

"But due to Niewe's character, that would have been impossible."

"How can you say that all the time?

"Because he's me."

"... Hmm. same existence, or"

"Yes."

"You in this world, that's the story."

Leongand narrowed his eyes. Stand still, I'm staring at Setuna.

Only some people, including Leongando, knew that Setsuna was a person from another world. Not many people have found out for the first time in this report. Both General Deion and Astar, as well as the SS Chiefs of Laxus and Michelle, were surprised to hear Setuna's report. Both Elius-Logner and Gilveer-Kerner.

If we were to report on the fight against Niewe, we had to talk about the causes with him, and then we had to mention the same existence. Mention of the same existence also means that the identity of Setsuna must be revealed, and Setsuna asks Leongando if, for once, it is okay to talk about being a different world person.

Leongand told me that he would no longer have to hide it.

'There's nothing you've ever done to this country, nothing you don't know. Whatever you are, who will no longer be alone in what I doubt about you. "

Then, he saw one of the nearby ones.

"Hey, Kelius?

Of course, Your Majesty.

Kellius-Magnate affirmed Leongand's words, leaking a bitter laugh. Kelius-Magnato, one of Leongand's four friends and one of his neighbors, was once the person who questioned Setuna's existence. He didn't care that Setsuna was a different world.

Now that we have experienced the Kruselk war, we can see that Kelius' idea is rather legitimate and an extremely natural reaction. If we think of it as a world eroded by the Imperial Devil, it is natural to come to the idea that it is only vicious, such as the existence of a different world. Rather, it is more unusual to treat Setuna and reuse Leongando. Of course, Leongand used Setuna heavily, though only because of its strong black spear.

"That means. Perhaps I am in your world."

"You will be."

As well as affirming Leongand's crush, Setsuna thought it was something to come by unexpectedly. I never even thought about it, but that can certainly be enough. If this Iles Valle has Niewe, who is identical to Setuna, it is no surprise that the world in which Setuna was born and raised had the same presence of the inhabitants of this world. Instead, you should be there and take it for granted.

There will be the same presence of Leongando, and there may be the same presence of people involved with Setuna such as Faria and Miliu. Even if he was there, he wouldn't be the kind of person who could make a roundabout with Setuna. I'm sure it's not Japanese.

(I guess I can't say enough)

Niewe was a completely different person from Setuna in the original world, both in her position and in her family structure. Just because it's the same thing, it's a natural story because the life you've been living is different. Perhaps the same presence of Faria in the original world is Japanese and a well-known figure of Setsuna. As a possibility, it's not an unlikely story.

Leongand smiles funny.

"You want to see me. I want to know what kind of life I live in your world."

"That sounds interesting. Am I, in the world of Setuna, bound to His Majesty?

"Even if it's tied, of course"

"Your Majesty..."

I wonder why the exchange between friendly kings and their wives makes them feel happy just watching. I'm sure it's because I really like Leongand and Nage. Nothing makes me happier than the happy appearance of one of my favorites.

"But it doesn't seem very nice to meet the same person, as far as your report goes."

"Right. Wouldn't be a very good thing."

"Will we be unable to acknowledge each other's existence"

"I almost killed Neewe, too."

"... are you in danger"

"Because it's the same."

Setuna answered with a bitter smile. Same existence. Everything is the same different world self. Setsuna itself in this world was Niewe. It's not just the figure. Even though I grew up differently, my thinking was somewhere similar. I guess it stays exactly like the shape of my soul. So the same exists. So the world is unacceptable. Only one of them, I can accept.

Niewe survived.

If so, it can also come back to try a battle that puts all existence on it. I have to be prepared, but now I'm just confident that I can afford to squeeze. After the Black Spear was completed, the Edge of Surst was lost forever. You don't get flirted with incomprehensible attacks. Setuna would then be far more advantageous.

"That's how it works."

"To the world."

"Yes."

"... Anyway, I'm glad you ended the fight without killing Niewe. You didn't have to inspire the empire."

Leongando is not the only one who is relieved from the bottom of his mind. I am sincerely delighted that the majority of human beings on this occasion no longer have the possibility of developing into an all-out war with the Empire. He may be more than happy that there will be no battle with the Empire than the resurrection of Setuna. Naturally. Even if Setuna dies, her power will only decrease, and we just need to increase our power on that, but there is nothing we can do about it if it is a war against the Empire. Drinking by the overwhelming power of the Empire, it will have to perish.

Even with a complete black spear, it's impossible to prevent.

"And you have gained further power over the Black Spear. Sometimes I'm so happy. I guess that means the black spear setuna is getting stronger and stronger, huh?

"Yes."

"Well... but it's not a good idea to keep relying on one of you."

"Please rely"

"... setuna"

"I am His Majesty's spear."

Setuna put her hand on Mizuna's chest and told her. It's not just a pledge of allegiance to Leongand. I am prepared and determined to just give my life.

"Okay. Let's engrave that word on your chest."

Leongand glanced into Setuna's eyes and went. In its eyes there was an extraordinary determination, a light for Setuna.
