Din no Monshou (WN)

"... ooh"

That's what the streets of Teito were all about.

If you look at the market, there's an overflowing merchant hissing there.

To come and go, passers-by who can't walk straight.

If I looked into the tavern, it was full of men and women serving liquor.

Especially the big international liquor store called The Stopped Tree of the Lost Birds, was so thriving that people couldn't get inside.

With great enthusiasm.

Edgar would be happy to see it.

I was just walking, and I was going to be overwhelmed.

Walkins laughs in my sigh.

"It's the best city on the continent in history, in development, in everything."

"Oh... sounds like it"

Alongside the Holy Nation, it's the oldest country on the continent.

From an empire, it's just a new arrival, such as a kingdom or a coalition.

Exactly. I've just been a continental ally since ancient times.

Moving his gaze all over the place, Walkins pulled his sleeve a little bit.

"Books and groceries not available in the Kingdom are traded.

If it seems to bother you, will you look?

"No, that's fine. I didn't come to see you."

Some magic books are only available in the Empire, so I'd really like to do a tourist mountain trip.

But I'm only in the middle of a return now.

We can't go out of our way to raise the level of danger.

Just straighten up and look for the facility you're looking for.

Walkins stops at the edge of the boulevard.

"Oh, there was! I'm a horse renter."

You found him unexpectedly fast.

But I'm concerned that there's no sign of a horse.

That looked the same to Walkins, with a strange look on his face.

"I'll listen to you, just a moment."

She enters the store and speaks to the clerk-like person.

And after two or three words, I came back unfortunately.

"How'd it go?

"Again, you can't. On imperial orders, there seems to be only one place we can get the horse out."

Was it sealed off?

The Imperial Army's roots are faster than I thought.

But the route wasn't completely crushed.

Let's get the horse out of the only place left.

"By the way, where is it?

"It's near the Imperial Palace. Let's go first."

Nodding, me and Walkins headed to the Imperial Palace early.

The Imperial Palace, where the emperor dwells.

It's a nearby horse renter who needs help, but be prepared to be on strict security.

◆ ◆ ◆

The location of the Imperial Palace is located away from the commercial area.

There's a distance there, so some people usually use carriages.

It should be noted that I felt a little uncomfortable while traveling.

When people go to the city, when they look at me, they change their blood and make way.

No, I'm not the only one.

They are obviously afraid of the people who look like nobles.

There was this tide in the kingdom, too, and I felt it thin by the time I got here.

But you really scare the nobles.

This is because a strict identity system is rooted in it.

With that in mind, I arrived at a horse rental near the Imperial Palace.

"Right here."

"... this is also a lot bigger"

It is fundamentally different from the store I saw earlier.

There are no categorical decorations, etc., and I can even feel the qualities.

But the scale was big enough to be called a mansion, and the lack of commerce was creepy.

Probably not a merchant, but a horse renter owned by the state.

The evidence shows that the premises are overflowing with many guards.

In front of the gate stood a knight in blue armor.

Long, red-haired man.

Did you just say the year was in the late 40s?

Besides, you look familiar in your outfit... the horseshoe of the guerrilla (Wild Knights)?

You have the greatest looking style, so it would be fortunate to talk to that man through.

"Dear Regis, a few ears."

"Mmm."

Walkins has washed out the conversation with the supposed man and told him to respond accordingly.

It would be a consideration not to talk about bad things.

Ready by ear punching.

After I signaled Walkins, I took the lead and talked to him.

"Let's ask. I'd like to head west."

――――

To my voice, the man came looking at me.

But somewhere the behavior is slow.

If you're going to explain that face in a nutshell - it's going to stink.

He obviously didn't welcome my visit.

I don't have a response, so I'll ask back.

"What, you haven't got a flight?

"He's out, and I'm leaning down to manage night flights"

Whoa, a tame mouth towards the first aristocrat you met.

The horseshoe of the guerrilla (Wild Knights) is a live unit, therefore.

I hear the field knights outside the Imperial Palace don't have a high profile against each other.

I was just a little surprised.

Could it just be that there's no control?

Haha, I know how that feels, Johnny.

I don't like salutations enough to throw up.

And well, leave the joke alone.

More simply, this man is likely to be a nobleman with more than Shadreia's rank.

The man looked at me like he was staring all over me and told me pale.

"In the midst of this strict vigilance, what are you going to go west for?

"For a conversation with the Western Border Guardian and Kernel."

Tell them what Walkins taught them to do.

I don't know who Mr. Kernel and I are.

I'm sure he's a chicken selling uncle with a white beard.

After receiving my reply, the man frowned.

"... kernel? Then you..."

"It's Johndou from the Shadreia family.

Sent by the main house as a messenger "

A word to reveal your identity.

My heart screams if I don't get seen through.

When the man scratched his head boldly, he looked at this one with a suspicious eye.

"Shadreia......? Was there a boy in that house?

"I thought they'd say that. I also keep the treasure sword. Check it out."

I showed Shadreia's sword to a man.

Then the man looks carefully at the sword pattern.

It is thorough enough to see the edge of the engraving.

"... sounds real"

After dozens of seconds of testing, the man affirmed so.

After all, it's Magimon's treasure.

How did you get this stuff, Mr. Walkins?

I stroked my chest down, but the man slapped and slashed this prediction.

"But - then. Change the day."

"... why?

You won't come this far and say no.

Turning to the eye of condemnation, the man said clearly.

"Even those of the aristocratic class are not allowed to go west. It's more than any other imperial order."

"There, please. I can't face the main house."

"Dan."

It's such a killing.

It supports salt like office work.

I have no choice, I have to adventure a little, but do you want to make a breakthrough?

I put my face nearer to the man and told him in a low voice.

"With you, you know what?

to see what our home is like. "

Then the man had zowah goosebumps.

But I just turned my face away for a moment.

It goes into deep reflection as it is.

A few seconds later, the man nodded with a tongue strike.

"- Wait a minute. Get confirmation from the traffic officer."

With that said, the man ran in a dash towards the Imperial Palace.

Oh, my God, you can move agile.

But you felt a lot worse.

He seemed alert to me.

Walkins squeaks with his hands on his chin.

"You're pretty suspicious. It could be a little bad."

"... what do we do?

If we continue like this, the risk of discovery will only increase.

If they find out it's fake, they'll slap you on the spot.

Asking for instructions, Walkins told me to come back.

"If you find yourself in a predicament, rob your horse and move on. I'll take the chase."

"... is that all right with you?

He said he'd take on the chaser.

If you're bad, there's a chance that soldiers from all over the Empire will come out.

It's not the same as raids in a few places, like when the Wang capital ambushed.

If that happens, no matter how much Walkins...

"It's a prerequisite for Lady Regis to escape... right.

I must say, survival is going to be very low. "

"... very low,"

Walkins tends to take an optimistic view of me.

Regardless, I guess that's because you don't want to upset me.

But in this case, 'very low survival' is replaced with 'almost certain death'.

Walkins glances at the Imperial Palace against me wiping cold sweat.

"There is a group of magicians in Imperial Capital who have gone off track."

That's a familiar name.

Is it a bunch of magicians who are trump cards for the imperial defense?

"Are you strong after all...?

"You can win at your leisure up to about 5 people.

But this is the imperial capital - dozens of people should see it coming out.

Instead of being unharmed, you're likely to be deeply hurt. "

It is a mouthful as if you have fought before.

Here, Walkins told me what he knew about them.

That was knowledge, including internal affections, at a different angle from what scholars had heard.

Emperor magician.

It is an organization launched after the Evil God War.

The purpose of the establishment is to enable the empire to challenge evil gods on its own.

In other words, a force to be able to cross with God without the four wits of the continent.

The training plan for emperor magicians is simple.

Research powerful magic with reference to the data left by the Four Hyeons of the Plenary Period.

To handle it, unusual magic vegetables were implanted in people.

He tried to recreate the Four Wise Levels of Magician by ignoring any instant death caused by addiction to magic vegetables.

Of course, the plan was impossible.

At the stage 500 years ago, it seems that no satisfactory magician was born as one.

But one day, a demon's hand was reached out to a frustrated plan.

"- The legacy of Radius.

Using the blueprints left behind by the first Radius,

At last, the Empire has created a magician who is not worthy of all mankind. "

Best friend of the first king, who founded the kingdom.

And the first Radius, an unprecedented inventor.

He took the blueprints he had and proceeded with the study of magic.

That gave birth to a magician with a magical aptitude that transcended his intelligence.

That's the - emperor magician.

brittle to self-destruct just a few shots of the specified magic, but

”Only material” as a magician is comparable to the four wisdom of the continent, he said.

A completely disposable weapon of destruction.

"... If this country is a giant tank, is the Empire a biological weapon?"

Don't use the bad touches.

But emperor magicians are only weapons against evil gods.

It is difficult to operate, so it will never be sent out of the capital.

Conversely, it means that this imperial capital is now firmly stambared by outcast magicians.

It's a horrible story.

Turning back, Walkins proceeds with his assumptions when he is discovered by his enemies.

"Well," me now, "but I think we can destroy the emperor magician.

But there are other reasons to really struggle. "

"... what's that?

"It's a magic device.

The city has a mechanism to make magic unusable if you have to.

If you activate it, you'll probably lose it in terms of volume. "

In the defense of exclusivity, it seems the invention was first reproduced by the Empire.

Mr. Radzias, leave me something. Ha ha ha...

Or what if such an important blueprint travels to another country?

Aware of Walkins' lack of life when he found out, I exhaled a deep sigh.

"... ok. Forced breakthroughs are all we have."

"But then it seems that measures are in place -"

Walkins tells me like I'm in trouble.

But the words were not spun to the end.

There was a shadow coming back here early.

- You kept me waiting.

It was an earlier man.

He leads three magicians either for escort or behind him.

The moment I saw the magicians behind me, a chill ran down my spine.

Liveless face, lost eyes of will.

Now, the intimidating magic that stings your skin.

I felt something different in my instincts about that normal appearance.

No way, that's...

…………

Confirm to Walkins silently.

Then she nodded cocklessly.

I see. Is that the Imperial Enchanter?

It is not a blue robe worn by a normal magician.

Full of luxurious magic, he wears a black robe.

This guy's kind enough to show me the trump card because it's soggy.

"It's John Doe.

You will have it signed face-to-face with the traffic officer.

If you leave me proof, my neck will fly. "

"... tone, print?

Wait, some unexpected stories popped up.

Isn't this sword enough to confirm your identity?

As I leaned my neck, the man narrowed his eyes depressingly.

"It is a seal to be given to each house.

One is owned by the Lord, the other by the Empire.

If you're a messenger, you naturally bring it, don't you?

…………

I don't have it.

With something like that, Walkins would be giving it to me.

Oh, my God, what can I do?

You gonna tell me you honestly don't have it?

But that makes riding a horse desperate.

On top of that, Shadreia, the main house took confirmation and checkmate.

It's the end of a roll at the point of detention in the first place.

Weeping agony runs through my chest.

But the man didn't wait for me for a second.

"Let the woman there wait. Follow me. Guide us to the Imperial Palace."

"I... I need permission to accompany my servant"

A voice squeezed out to the fullest.

It's the worst way to discover it without Walkins.

But the man shook his head sideways resolutely.

"It is not acceptable for a squire to enter the courtroom.

Long ago, there was an undetected man after His Majesty's life. "

"But..."

Do something about it.

I tried to eat it down.

But the man stares at me with a cold gaze.

"If you don't have a squire, is there something inconvenient?

"... no, not particularly"

I have no choice.

If you get suspicious, you don't have an ex or a child.

I try to follow a man.

Then at that moment, three imperial magicians broke in between me and Walkins.

"... be"

"Keep an eye out. If you do a strange imitation, you can dispose of it."

The man declared pale.

They physically ripped me and Walkins off.

A faint smile disappears from the surrounded Walkins face.

Then I could see her right hand softly raised.

(- Stop it, Walkins!

I told her off the phone.

Then Walkins hands down silently.

It was a dangerous place.

Walkins was now totally about to ramble on this scene.

They no longer judged the negotiations meaningless and tried to forcibly break through.

But I can't admit it.

Maybe she has a chance.

But still, it's not yet time to use the last resort.

(- Don't worry, I'll be right back)

That's all I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna disarm the telepath.

Then a man was pulling out his sword in front of him.

He has asked to make cutting-edge brilliant and intimidating.

"Suddenly using magic, what's up?

Oh, you broke through my demonic revelation.

I was wondering if I would find out if it was as magical as a telepath.

I hear you have a good sense of smell for magic.

I shrug my shoulders and give back my spare grin.

"Never mind. If you don't drain your magic regularly, you'll be blunt."

"... don't think a country aristocrat with a magical degree can beat me, do you?

I can slap a guillotine and a grudging eye.

It's easier to avoid irritating.

After the man walks out, I slowly follow.

At that time, I looked back.

Walkins surrounded by magicians.

She had her worried eyes pointed at me.

...... I'm fine.

I can't rely on her anymore.

This much of a predicament, I'll try to escape by myself.

So determined, I turned forward.

Then a man squeals at me bossly.

- You haven't introduced yourself yet.

Speaking of which, I hadn't heard of my predisposition yet.

A man who can take a high-pressure attitude towards Shadraia.

What the hell kind of girl is that?

"My name is - Robesperri Danton Malata.

He is the number one leader of the Emperor's Three Grand Dukes used from the Imperial Palace. "

He put his hand on his chest.

He wants me to tell him to look at the armor engraving.

The gleaming crest on your chest is the "Ethereal Horse".

Robesperri grinned invincibly, pointing his finger at it.

- He's the leader of the Horseshoe of the Rangers.
