Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Mm-hmm. Then I'll go check with the Bandit Guild."

and a reply from Sheila to the comms machine.

When I let everyone know how this one went, they also responded. They seem to be showing each other the comms over there, and there's a response from each of them, so it's a pseudo-chatty vibe.

'Okay. I'm going to Royal Castle with both of you. "

"Lavine will accompany Sheila."

Then we will return to our homes and head to the Imperial Castle.

'Copy that. I'll send Cadkeus that way. I'll meet you at the royal castle later. "

Sheila takes the bust of the assault perpetrator I made to the Bandit Guild and asks them to gather information. Rosemary also came to the royal castle and talked about it there, so the story came to an end.

This one is about to hand over and transport the executioner who packed it to the soldiers who rushed here and then take the Oscar and Vanessa carriage to the Royal Castle.

"Are you okay now?

Clark, the Duke's butler, asks when he finishes his correspondence and then heads in front of the carriage.

"Excuse me. Because I had a few things to do. I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

"No, because we both needed to explain the situation to the soldiers."

Clark says, he takes a step back and opens the carriage door, urging him to get in.

"Excuse me."

That's what I say, get in the carriage. Only the carriage of the Duke's house is well tailored.

Sitting in the seat across from Oscar and Vanessa, Clark also comes aboard. The door closed and the carriage moved out. The escorts are next to you.

"Interesting magic creature."

Vanessa is showing an interest in Valor on my shoulder. After a job, Valor is... half-eyed to say something, and you look a little sleepy.

"I say Valor. I was wondering if she was surprisingly adorable when she got used to it."

"I think I understand. You helped me earlier, and I can count on you."

And Oscar smiled.

... Hmm. You call it a surprisingly large capacity for both of us? I heard the Duke is curious and a new object lover, but maybe it has an impact. You have a territory in the ocean, so you'll be accustomed to seeing all sorts of rare things in the trade.

"Are you two still going to Termwilds with the Duke?

"Yeah. My father said he wouldn't be sightseeing until after his meeting with Grand Duke Debonis,"

"We were going to stay home, too, but the kid didn't have to go out with himself, so he asked me to take a look at the sightseeing... Since we're going to be moving with patience, we have to schedule a downward look before we head to Termwilds to make sure it goes smoothly."

"... I see"

So you don't have to go hang out with yourself, so you don't mind. I guess it's easier to accept Oscar and Vanessa as big names than just to go out and play.

"What family knows about going out to the West Side?

"I know quite a bit. I sent out a letter to Term Wills asking him to find a place to see the shipyard. I'm the one who suggested it."

Oscar frowns a little.

"Then it might be difficult to follow how the information spread from there."

"Maybe. To be honest, I wasn't very vigilant."

Vanessa has a sad face, too. I guess he also had a sense of security within normal boundaries around escorting him, but I don't know how much he expected the West Side to be raided on that scale from day to day all over the city.

Looks like they used two of the raiders and some of the ignorant ones... but this is not a mistake to see from where they got caught up in the Kama.

But... if he was lurking all over the city, this must have been witnessed somewhere. When that happens, you're in the realm of the Bandit Guild. Later, I would also like to expect information via Sheila.

Talking to the two of them, the carriage also arrived at the royal castle.

When I get out of the carriage in front of the hotel, King Melvin and Prince Josiah show up. Mildred is with me. I also contacted the Knights on the comms. It's important when it comes to raiding the Duke's house, so I guess he's been cutting the job off.

"Long time no see, both of you"

"Safe and above all."

and King Melvin and Prince Josiah.

"This is His Majesty Melvin, His Highness Josiah. Words that don't matter."

"We are out of time, Your Majesty"

Two polite greetings to King Melvin.

"And it's Theodore. He used to protect us both."

"Really. If there had been such an incident at this time, it would not be strange if the story of reconciliation, no matter what the authenticity, had been crushed. Theodore, you saved me."

Prince Josiah frowned uncomfortably, but he smiled at me and thanked me.

"Thank you. My buddy noticed the discomfort."

It is also because Sheila first noticed discomfort around it. Let's tell King Melvin about this when we talk about magic interrogation.

"Uhm...... That's a big medal, considering the time of year. But capturing the killer doesn't mean the case is solved. Let me start by telling you more."

and King Melvin turns himself over and heads inside the reception hotel. Prince Josiah followed suit. Clark... waited in the carriage, it seemed.

"That's why I'd like to ask for a magical interrogation to prove our innocence and facilitate the investigation of the case."

When he finished explaining the situation, King Melvin closed his eyes.

"... then I knew exactly how it would feel. But calling the Inquisitor here is also very noticeable."

Derek, the Inquisitor, will be here shortly after he arrives at the hotel... is there any rumor or misleading?

Rumors have arisen that two Duke's sons have been magically interrogated after the raid, etc., because of all sorts of bad outside hearings that overshadow the possibility of madness, home disturbances, etc. That's why I did the magic interrogation, and I can't go around the situation.

"Therefore, I think it would be a good idea to get in shape if you disguised yourself as the place where you are capturing the bad guy, and then you went and cooperated with the killer in the form of witnesses and interrogation. Originally part of the Inquisitor, if that's the place. Let's try to make sure the interrogation is disrespectful and in the shortest possible time."

"Thank you"

If we are cooperative in answering the questions that make us certain, then the magic interrogation won't take very long either.

"Mildred. Two, please. I want you to explain the situation to Derek."

"Ha. Lady Oscar, Lady Vanessa, please come this way"

"Regards"

and Oscar and Vanessa left the room in the form of escorts by Mildred.

To move within the two royal castles, use the magic props of the example disguise ring. You care a lot.

"Apparently, everyone has arrived."

"Well, let's just say we move on where we have it."

And the carriage arrived in front of the reception hotel so that it would be replaced by the two people who left the room, and everyone from the party came out of the carriage. Looks like Forceto and Zion went home first. The ladies will show us around and we'll all be in the room soon.

"Hey, it's been a while since you guys have been here. Looking good, above all."

"This is His Highness Josiah."

Everyone greets King Melvin and Prince Josiah.

"Dear Theodore, are you hurt?

"Mmm. Well, this street."

Answer Ashley's question with a grin.

"Safe and above all."

With my answer, Grace narrowed her eyes with a calm expression and Mallane turned a smile and an uncontrolled grin. Rosemary and Claudia don't look so straight, but do they smile slightly when it comes to Claudia?

Everyone sat on the couch and the conversation continued where the tea was brewed.

"Well...... Is it about stopping reconciliation, or is the disguise of a strife an end? According to the information we get from the guys who caught him... it's probably too early to determine the mastermind solely with the information the executioner has."

What King Melvin is saying is if you consider the possibility of the latter.

"We are prepared to cooperate in their interrogation... right. If we assume that a landmark feud is just stirring up a big nickname from behind for a purpose, I think it's likely that the end doesn't know the intent of the mastermind."

"It would be in the form of gathering information with vigilance on both."

"Is there a suspicious person?

"... Speaking of the steep vanguard of conflict, the famous Golden Mountain right on the border between the Grand Duke and the Duke's territory."

Rosemary said with her eyes closed as she hid her mouth with a feather fan.

Golden Mountain Rights. It's not a current generation event because we're going to be talking about the history of Verdogal... but there was an incident when Golden Mountain was found in a subtle position that can't be called either territory, and at that time, there was an affair between the Grand Duke and the Duke's jury.

The story was that there was a skirmish and the royal family intervened to reach an agreement before the noise grew louder.

The story is that the royal intervention was also quite rapid, because it is not merely a skirmish between the great nobles alone? I don't think there has been any talk of noise caused by the Golden Mountain entanglement since then. I guess that's because the royal power is strong.

Or would it also be tailing to welcome the blood ties between the two families as royal daughter-in-laws or move so that the three families remain in equilibrium?

"That's certainly the first cause of the conflict. Now both families are settling in a way that divides the profits."

"This means that the Royal Family is trying to be fair by monitoring and reporting on output, etc. If you try to flip it, you will turn the royal family and the other against the enemy"

Fair enough? Well, as both households, we wouldn't be serious about waging a civil war by breaking up the country, and given circumstances such as the influence of the Verdogal royal family and the rite of national defence, certainly.

"Yes, the royal family and the lord are talking. But I don't know about the juries in both houses. Especially among the Lords who fit near Kanayama."

"That's the steep vanguard of the opposition to reconciliation?

"I've talked to the Grand Duke and the Duke, but they have quite a long history, and there seems to have been tangible and intangible harassment and bad impressions of each other's factions that don't have to be put on the table. Though in this case, it should be said to be more determined than rights. Well, the current generation is relatively calm."

Prince Josiah closes his eyes and waves small.

So is our Lord, and so is our jury. There would have been a part where you couldn't say the other person well or take the distance, even if there was no direct resentment because of the misconduct of your grandfather or father's generation.

"Oscar and Vanessa are somewhat distant from such firmness. Those two are pretty smart."

I guess that's why they're being targeted by the opposition to reconciliation. You can also aim to make Oscars change their minds by rubbing their sins against the other faction.

"Well, there may be circumstances we don't understand, so we should listen carefully to the executor."

Based on the information obtained so far, we will corroborate the speculation by extracting information from the executioners.

"But even in the light of all those circumstances and historical backgrounds, the modus operandi of committing a frantic kidnapping of his own husband's son with emotions alone and hurting his family seems somewhat overdone. But... it could be an excuse to suggest it. He pushes the other lord to sin, kills the power of the Grand Duke, increases the Duke's rights, etc."

"Then it's better to fight over the tracks."

"That's how I see the rest at the moment"

"I think I'm on that line too."

"Just like your father and Marie."

All three agree?

... Trail wrangling means that fate is the purpose of assassinating an heir.

If you're against reconciliation, that's it, but if the assassination is what you're after, the planting's just finished, and now it's the real deal. You'll need to cover Oscar and Vanessa's perimeter.

"So what's a suspicious person in a landmark fight?

Needless to say, this one will mean someone who is quite close to the housekeeper. If I had assassinated many people, I would have noticed. Maybe that's why he's working in disguise.

"First of all, you have one of the first people in sight. Duke's brother."

"You're second only to my real son in inheritance."

I mean, would it be my uncle for the Oscars?

However, if an assassination in a inheritance dispute is intended, it is also possible that the person will be targeted. There are various aspects to watch out for, monitoring, etc.
