111. Stars shine in the night sky looking up from the garden

Stars glowed in the night sky looking up from the gardens, but intermittent flowing clouds covered them all the time and passed by again. The garden was cut off on all sides by stone walls and had a narrow impression, but the garden trees and flowers were carefully arranged and had a small but beautiful color.

Cold air comes down from the sky. Even though it was not yet frosty, the night dew wet the leaves of the trees and glowed back at the light of the fluorite lamp flickering on the wall.

A set of tables and chairs is hidden behind a central implant. There was a man with a nice face sitting there. Dressed in good-quality white clothes, the dark yellow blonde glows like a golden glow of the lamp. Rhodesian Crown Prince Benjamin. Benjamin frowned a bit uninteresting and pounded the table with his fingertips.

"I'm not going to fail again ... It wouldn't be fun if I continued to fail like this."

François, the third son of Archduke Estgal, who was kneeling beside him, dropped his head. But only his eyes are shaking calmly. The gaze and signs seem to be felt from the darkness here and there. Benjamin wildly scratched his head, sighed and leaned against the back of the chair.

"No, that's good. I was able to lure the elf out of it.

The campaign to assault the Elves at Findale has failed twice. It is said that the first time was still, but the second time it was in the way.

But shortly thereafter, the elves appeared in the Imperial City, directly targeting Benjamin's neck. There is no doubt that I was impatient to be interfered by the barrier. However, after being hampered by Schweiz and Hector, the elf was supposed to return and die.

"Well, the" black haired war maiden "will appear."

François's eyebrows fluttered, raising his face.

"Did that show up?" "That's right, I missed the elf even though Schweiz and Hector were there."

Benjamin looked back and said:

"What happened to Maitreya? Would he be killed?" "If the opponent was only" Haou sword ", it would have been so. But" Akaoni "is not such a thing. That is such a man."

A man wearing a white robe and wearing a hood, "The Flame of Disaster," Schweitz said. Benjamin laughed at him.

"I'm buying a lot. Is it really sweet?" Little Devil "Sweet, but not weak. Sweetness is his strength. He's a little boy from the nobleman of Lucrecia. It seems like you've missed it all too. That could be a stake. "" Why is it a person? Fufu, Schweitz, you've been working together for a while and you're probably not shackled. "Isn't it a pseudo-person. That's why I can understand their insides well." "... I'm just curious to betray you?"

Schweitz looked at Benjamin from the bottom of the hood with a sharp eye.

"That's the line here. You may not have been able to attach to the Crown Prince."

Benjamin turned his face and looked up at the sky with a seemingly innocent look.

"... Don't worry, I won't hurt your research and curiosity."

François looked at each other alternately with a suspicious face. Schweitz reassembled his arm and sighed grumpy.

"Well, good. In any case, that guy is definitely an obstacle." "It's rare for you to say that much. Well, the" black-haired maid "was repeatedly blocked by this plan. I guess ... Isn't it necessary to make the final decision? "" ... Don't be nervous anyway. If the movement becomes flashy, there is a possibility that the Papacy will be too pretentious. "

Benjamin sighed and leaned on the back of the chair.

"If you think your elves are going to get caught, you'll see something strange again.

Then he looked sideways at Francois.

"I'm going to ask you for the next job. Don't falter next time. Let's go." "Huh ..."

A nervous look, François bowed away. Benjamin muttered with his stick.

"The enemies have increased ... I guess I have to add a little more handiwork here. I'm gonna do that, and I'll have to do something before the elf joins them." I can't stop it. "

Schweiz said. Benjamin stood up and pulled out his dagger.

"I wish you were serious. Well, I know I'm not that type." "... I'm grateful just to be with you, and I'm interested in playing politics. "No" "Yes, I know ..."

Benjamin hurt his fingertip with a dagger. The ball of blood swelled up from a single horizontal scratch. Hold your palm there and mutter something small. The overflowing blood dripped on the table. Benjamin began to draw something on the table with a bloody fingertip, chanting something. It's a magic circle.

As the team neared completion, the red light drifted away. A thin, transparent spirit emerges around Benjamin. Eventually, a black swirl rolled up from the center of the magic circle, which began to take the form of a person in the air.

Benjamin nods satisfactorily and moves his finger while continuing to sing. The lukewarm wind blew up the leaves, blowing up into the sky, and the courtyard gradually became weird.

Schweitz, who was watching with his arms folded, muttered.

"... Is it possible to increase the swell of the event stream in this battle?"

When I looked far above the high wall, I felt like I was feeling somehow. She seems to stagger unexpectedly, but stomps on her feet. The story of the imperial capital Rhodesia often comes from the hawkers, wanderers, and bards who come to Tornella. It is said that the capital of this empire, which has a long history, is gorgeous and profound, and foreign travelers are impressed by its size and the wonderful design of the building.

Berglyphs, for example, who just came to Tokyo from the countryside, were already intimidated by walls larger than Istakh and Jovem. Seen from a distance, it could only be seen as a black, flat shadow, partly due to the night, but when you saw it illuminated by various lights nearby, there were scars of past battles carved here and there, I felt the depth of history. If not, he would have been able to look around slowly, but Bergliff smiled bitterly, then gently squeezed his cheeks to tighten his mind. I did not come by play.

The angels were contacted by the Belgriffs and moved to the Imperial City with Maitreya's transfer magic. Maitreya said, "It's time to show off." Her transfer magic seemed to be based on shadows, and she boasted that no one else could use it.

Anyway, I experienced the transition magic for the first time, but when I felt like I was sinking in the water, I drifted in the jet-black darkness that I could not see even if I squinted my eyes for a while. Then I felt suddenly emerged, and when I realized I was standing in the dark.

He seemed to want to avoid relocating to places with too many people, and relocated only a little further from the Imperial City. He walked for a short hour and approached the Imperial City, passing by several carriages and overtaking several carriages. As a common sense of travel, traveling at night should be avoided, but there was an army stationed between Imperial City and Findale, and the security seemed to be origami. That's why they run to riding horses and peddlers. Perhaps the economy is revitalized because people and goods come and go all the time.

I don't think that the dedication and realization of Prince Benjamin's skill would be extraordinary. It is said that the city is still prosperous in front of the city, even though the sun has fallen and it has become dark, and there is no doubt that it is excellent as a government official.

"... What is a fake person?"

That's why I felt sorry to hostile. For those who are ignorant, they are benefactors who have improved their quality of life. At first glance, the feelings of Bergliff became complicated. For those who work hard in their own lives, it doesn't matter what the Crown Prince is or not.

According to Angeline, who met Satie, behind the scenes, he has been working on outrageous experiments with innocent women. That would not be allowed. But the prosperity right before us is also true. Berggriff sighed that she was no longer young enough to be able to emotionally deny Benjamin.

"What are you thinking?"

The little devil Maitreya, standing nearby, said. He is wearing a cloth hat deep in his eyes, hiding the hood from above.

"No, nothing. I think you're a formidable person." "Are you afraid?

But he couldn't escape, Bergliff smiled and sneezed at Maitreya's head. Maitreya was dissatisfied and pointed.

"Do not treat as a child" "Oh, sorry sorry"

Maitreya snorted, but still gripped the Bergryph's cloak, seemingly jarred. It took an hour to get to the Imperial City after the transfer. The night book is falling all around. During the day, the still soft air seemed to come with a stinging cold.

Percival came over there. We served skewered meat and lightly baked bread.

"Hey," "Thank you," "It's unusual, this kind of thing." "Oh. It's so busy at night. There wasn't much of this at Orphen."

I remember that the izakaya were hanging around at night, but the market was closed and quiet after sunset. It looks as if you don't know sleep.

"But I don't feel like" Earth's Navel "was lively until the night."

Percival frowned at the meat, saying, "It's hard."

"You're the imperial capital?" "It's been a long time. It was like a gathering place for the poor at that time ... but it's become lively." "Bell. The bad guys are the better guys than anyone." "... That's why it's a difficult person to do." "Yes. It's too much for adventurers. "

So rely on you, not the adventurer, Percival laughs and knocks on Bergriff's back. Bergliff laughed in trouble.

"I don't want to be too overconfident," "I don't frighten you, don't be afraid. I'm sure Kasim and Ange will have it."

Belgriff smiled, thinking of her reliable daughter. Percival grabbed the meat skewers he had eaten in his mouth. Maitreya, who was biting bread, looked up astonished.

"What?" "I'm not afraid of you, you'll be suspicious." "Because this is Benjamin's knee. There's no need to be too alert and useless." I can't tell you. I don't know that because of the magical habit. " Schweitz said the numbers were small, but are there any hires like you? I've heard that there are "executioners".

Maitreya swam as she thought.

"Maybe there's still more. Schweiz and Benjamin don't seem to be moving so much, and the working unit shouldn't be enough with Hector alone. But I'm not trying to increase the number of people so darkly ... Three people are realistic guesses, but there are some invisible bouncers around Benjamin.

According to Bergliff, Maitreya shook his head.

"I only met Hector, but I didn't talk. I know there was a bouncer beside Benjamin, but I don't know who it was." I was on guard. ''

When Percival said nastyly, Maitreya inflated her cheeks and exhaled white.

"Who's to blame ..." "It's because of Bell. If you're alone, you're dead now."

Percival said so and purposefully handed his sword handle. Maitreya turned pale and hid under the shadow of Bergryph. Bergliff smiled bitterly.

"Percy, I'm bullying now because I'm an ally."

The cold wind came down and shook my hair. Cold air enters through the slightly opened gap in the neck and shakes the back. There are clouds in places, but the sky is full of stars. It is cold only for the fine weather. Bergliff looked around, carried his great sword back and carried his luggage.

"I have to join the Angers ... I don't know where I am." "I'm sorry.

It was a communication magic, a sudden encounter between Angelin and Satie, a series of unexpected events, so he couldn't talk much about specific actions. It's fine to come to the Imperial City, but I don't know exactly where the angels are staying or where the lab in Salazar is. In addition, it was near midnight, and although the area was bustling, the darkness of the night was widespread, and it did not seem very suitable for wandering over unfamiliar land.

"If you can meet Lee Zerotte for the time being ... I think you can join the Angers." Small devil "Yes. Hey, Chibi, was the Imperial City residence of Archduke Estgal near the Royal Castle?" "Yes. "Distant" "What can't be done with your transfer magic?"

Maitreya glanced over and looked at Bergriff.

"... I can, but I don't want to do that much."

Maitreya continued nervously, glaring at Percival.

"While you may not be able to see from the other side while you are confused by this way, it is unlikely that you will miss the fluctuations of the space of transfer magic. Moving faster, you may be able to detect where you are ... "But from you, but from Findale to the Imperial City" "There is no net beyond the Imperial City. But near the Royal Castle you should be on the alert of the Elves and have a barrier. Doing suicide "

Indeed, it is true that such defense measures are in place. The opponent, though fake, is the Imperial Crown Prince and one of the best witches on the continent. Percival narrowed his eyes and stroked his chin.

"Hmm ... Well, it's true that there are fewer people who can use transfer magic, and how to take countermeasures is not so difficult ... I wonder if Sati's guys had mastered it in the meantime." I don't think it's crazy to put it on. "" Yes.

Percival frowned a bit frustrated. It seems that the sword rival of the past did not go to magic. Bergliff looked down. Sati may have continued his training. Did they try to do something with strength, like Casim or Percival? For example, try to cure Bergriff's feet. As a result, I found something to protect here. He is fighting alone, refusing help while suffering and suffering. It hurt my heart. Despite the different scales, I guess that once I ran away, my friends had this feeling.

"... I'm sorry, Percy"

Bergliff bowed to Percival. Percival's eyes turned black and white.

"Suddenly," "I'm sad, but I'm lonely that I can't ask for help. I understand well." "... I'm not saying that anymore. "Is that enough?" "I see ... I see."

Bergliff twisted his beard, laughing badly.

"No, I'm sorry. I'm feeling sentimental." "I understand my feelings, but now it's time to turn to the front." It wouldn't be moving at this time .... I think it would be better to get a place tonight and start moving tomorrow morning. "" That's right. What? "

Maitreya, who was listening silently, nodded.

The three took them inside and entered the wall. There are shops and cafeterias along the street, but half of them are closed and the lights are off, and they are going to sleep quietly at night. I felt a little quiet inside because the outside city was busy. Still, the open tavern is crowded with people, drunkards roaming around the streets, being poked by patrol soldiers, and still bustling.

There were many inns near the entrance. Large and small inns are still lit, and many buildings also have a tavern. Was. I entered a suitable inn, went upstairs and left my luggage in the room. Maitreya asserted that it was a large room with three beds. Hang the cloak on the wall, Percival turns his shoulders.

"Would you like to go for a drink?" "That's right ... I'll be around for a full cup. I'll be honestly sleepy." "Haha, I'm not going to drink too much.

Maitreya was grabbing the hem of Bergriff's clothes before he finished.

"Don't leave me alone." "How scared you are ..."

Percival said stunned. Maitreya turned away, pretending to be inaudible. Then go down to the first floor again. The first floor was a tavern, some of them seemed to be overnight guests, others didn't, and they were drinking noisy anyway. A bard on a journey with a lute sings an old epic. It is a poem during the empire development period, when heroes were rampant. The names of the heroes I heard as a child remained in my ears and disappeared.

As I sewed between the people and sat down in the empty seat, I felt as if I had lost power. It's almost half a night already. Originally, a Bergryph is a long time to sleep.

"... what do you get tired of at this level?"

I muttered and pressed my eyes with my finger. Nothing has even started yet. Percival, who ordered liquor, struck his cheek.

"I'm going to stay relaxed tomorrow. I'll take a break today." "... I don't want to be too relaxed." "Noisy guy, if you're so scared, why don't you put it on your knees?"

Percival drew a little chair and beat his knee with his palm. Maitreya struck the table with her fingertips.

"Do not treat me as a child" "What are you doing?"

Percival reached out and leaned on Maitreya's forehead. A mug and a knob containing ale are carried there. Seeing the white foam overflowing from the edge, Bergliff stroked his beard in trouble.

"Ale ... I'm not used to drinking ..." "What are you not good at?" "I think you just don't get used to it ... No, it's good. I'll get you."

With that said, Percival drank half a mug with a sip. Maitreya has a weird face sipping foam.

"Cheaper taste" "because it's a bar, it's like this." "I want to drink more delicious liquor. You're an S-rank adventurer, what if you ask for a little better liquor?" "... poor tongue" small devil

While drinking ale and pickling fried potatoes and pickled fish, Percival, who asked for a second cup, set out.

"So, how about it. It's okay to join the detailed talks, but there's just an overview of the idea."

Maitreya is also looking at the Bergryph. Bergliff put his hands on the table and lowered his voice.

"... If there is a chance to get in, it's all about the Prince being a fake," "What are you going to do?" "I don't know yet. I want information," "I see. If there are any unnatural points, why not break it down from there? ""

Berggriff smiled and drank a little ale and looked a little farther.

"To be honest, I think it's a miracle to go well right now. If it's dangerous ... no, if the Angers are dangerous ... I might abandon Satie." I don't blame you. ''

Percival laughed and slapped Bergriff's shoulders violently.

"Don't worry about it! It's not your own problem." "Haha, thank you."

Maitreya brought a mug to her mouth with a tidy face. Suddenly, the entrance to the bar became noisy. When I looked down, I heard that the drunks had begun a fight, with the sound of cracking bottles and mugs, screams, screams, and the same laughter and laughter.

"It's noisy," "It looks like a bar."

At first, they fought each other with fists. It seemed that the heat had finally come, and they seemed to pull out each other's daggers. The Belgryph stood up, thinking that it would be better to stop, and someone slipped in front of a man with a dagger and devoured himself. The man stripped his white eyes and fell prone on the floor. The other man also squeezed and rolled on the floor. Surrounding wild horses boil in vivid arrangement.

The uproar was caused by a pair of people dressed in matching clothes with the Vienna coat of arms. It would seem a Viennese priest, but the coat of arms was unusual, with a sword at the waist. Obviously not just a clergy. Percival narrows his eyes.

"It's a knight of the cathedral. It's unusual." "Is it Viennese?" "

Percival had also traveled to Lucrecia on a tour of the past, where he had seen a knight of the shrine.

The two knights looked around and sat down in the corner seat. Bergliff frowned a little and looked at them sideways. One was a solid man and the other was a beast, a boy with rabbit ears shaking above his head. The owner of the inn came in a hurry and was bowing down. The man was angry and ordered many things, but the boy was somewhat lethargic and drifted his gaze in the air.

Bergliff himself has a loose belief in the main god, Vienna, but as far as Charlotte is concerned, he does not have a very good impression of the Papacy. I was just wondering if it was anything different from a cleansing institution, and I met my boy with a rabbit ear and looked away in a hurry. Then I emptied the mug with a feeling that it wasn't clear and breathed.

Maitreya contracted and gently pulled the hem of Berggryph's clothes.

The little devil "Vienna is bad ... I'll be beaten if you get it." "It's a difficult person. Hey, give me another cup. Bell, are you?" "Is it okay. Maitreya is going to be there too. "I'm back in the room first." "I see. Well, take a rest. Well, it's time to start." "Hm. You don't drink too much." "Haha, I know."

Bergliff snapped Percival's shoulders and took Maitreya back into the room. When the doors closed, Maitreya was relieved and sat down on the bed.

"The Imperial City is now full of enemies ..." "Knight of the cathedral ..."

Certainly, the Papacy has a connection with Charlotte, but there is no point in opposing it here. It would be clever not to be involved. Bergliff took off his coat and laid it on the back of the chair. I have to rest my body for now.

"Finally we can take a rest ..." "I'll say one."

Maitreya looked seriously and stared at Bergliff.

"How much I'm an attractive girl, I don't want to do anything weird. I didn't forgive everything because I cooperated with you." ...... but ...

I don't know what it is. Bergligh was confused and vaguely nodded what to answer. Maitreya snorted and snatched a futon to her head and was curled up.
