When Elvis and the others entered the harem, the anxious side room awaited.

"Heh, Your Majesty...!"

At the forefront is a beautiful blonde girl, Daina Barbieroli.

Behind that, Vrasta, a small girl with pale dark skin, is showing her face.

I walked up to them.

"I'm glad we're all safe."

"That's right," I said.

Only then did the girls uniformly roll their eyes.

"Huh...? Your Majesty...?"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Something's going on..."

"What's the matter with you suddenly? Heehee ~"

Vrusta said in a prolonged tone, tilting her neck.

Previously, even though I didn't seem interested in you guys anyway...

“Well, it's a bit of a change of heart.”

I've barely spoken to the girls, taking them away one way or the other.

We should make time to face each and every one of them, whether we let them go or not.

Yes -- once we have all seven of them in the side room.

"... these kids are your side room?"

Looking back in a slightly dark voice, Azerea looked at the side chambers with white eyes.

"Not all of them are so cute." You have a good hobby, don't you? "

"You hate me. You know that, don't you? It's convenient to keep Roost's girls in peace in the Daimkurud, which is forbidden to women."

"I wonder." Isn't it a hobby? "

Don't get caught in the burn.

When I leaned my neck at Azelea, Daina and the others looked at Azelea and Elvis with a puzzled look on their faces.

In front of me, I said, "Who are these people? 'It seems that it is not easy to ask questions.

"Huh. Who is it?" These people ~ "

Vlasta said in a relaxed tone as she glanced at Azelea (her big swollen chest).

She's from a fishing village on the edge, and she's supposed to be next to Samygina in the side room, but that's probably why she can step in.

I answer with a bitter smile.

"It's my friend."

Side room tells us the situation lightly, orders us to wait, and we head for the salon.

It's for a meeting to see what happens next.

Along the way, Elvis asked me.

"Jack, what's going on with all the roosts except the girls?" According to the records, there must be 17 roosts in Daimekuld including you.... "

"The remaining nine men are employed as military personnel and bureaucrats. A woman of an unnatural age to protect her posterior palace, she lives in a secluded isolation. whoever is rebellious....."

Who's rebellious?

"...... you're asleep"

"Sleeping...?"

Elvis and the others do not know that three of the legendary Four Heroes are sleeping underground in various countries.

But you know I salvaged something from the basement of the Spiritual Academy.

"If you say something like hibernation, do you understand?" The boundary between killing and disabling that was in the academy - it was caused by the brave Laez who slept underneath the academy. I salvaged two techniques from the underground of the Academy: the technique of keeping people alive and preserving them forever, and the technique of automating spirit magic. "

Is that what you're using to keep Roosts asleep alive?

Huh ~. It was rumored that they were working underneath Demon King Castle in the alley.

Ruby shrugged.

I can understand that there are cadres who say that, but there is no way that they can engage in forced labor for roosts that would be difficult if they were to die.

The 17 spiritual spells, including the [Nesting Permeable Wings], are no longer necessary to maintain this country.

"... it's horrible. It's a technique that lets Roost fall asleep while he's still alive."

Elvis said as he thought about it.

"It means that some faction will be able to monopolize roosts that have never been located before, right?" With that kind of technology, the forces that try to find Roost and make him hibernate will never stop..... "

"That's why you didn't tell future generations." Wise brave men. "

And I went on.

"It's not all terrible things. For example, you can keep someone's body clean all the time."

"Huh...? Could it be..."

Phil's body didn't spoil at all until he brought it back to Dymkuld.

Now that I was close to the depths of the [Nesting Permeable Wing], I knew it.

That must have made Phil's body float unconsciously from the passage of time, my thoughts "I want you to stay away from Phil"...

I don't know. At that time, I froze and preserved Phil's body so that it wouldn't rot.

Then, I rushed to salvage the cold sleep technology from the underground of the academy and managed to keep Phil asleep clean...

"... are you going to meet me?"

Look at Elvis' face, I say.

Elvis laid down his eyelids for a few seconds,

”No... I'll wait until I can save Helmina”

"... oh yeah, that's right. That's good."

An air of silent prayer streamed through, and Gawain opened his mouth to change the course.

A coup d 'état of the Demon King's army -- is that his discretion?

"That's what I thought."

It was Rachel who responded.

That anti-spirit magic equipment ― ― I couldn't make it without preparing a blueprint before the evil god appeared. No material, but a blueprint - there's only one person in the world who can imitate it. ”

Yeah, that's him.

Yuki Sharo.

Samygina was taken in by the evil gods, but she was prepared in advance so that she could move the world as she wanted...

"Who is this...?"

Azerea asks suspiciously.

You haven't told Elvis about Sarah yet.

"It's a very complicated story. We'll talk about it later. Anyway, what's happening right now is that there's only one human being--no, it's a being--and more than that being unable to move directly, there's someone behind the Diederichs--"

There's not a lot of possibilities.

Diederich didn't mean to hide it either.

- The witch.

I've been talking about it myself.

Then, when everyone enters the salon as an impromptu meeting hall.

Vinny, who was accompanying her in silence, raised her face.

"Vinnie"

Shorten your name.

Vinny nodded in silence.

It's been a long time. You'll see soon enough.

That was when Benny, her twin brother, got some information.

"I have a report for you, Your Majesty. Right now in the Senri Republic--"

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆ ―――――――◆◆◆

"Freedom and equality, comrades! I can't stand it anymore!!"

The voice echoes loudly in the square in front of the official residence of Irnesia, the capital of the Senri Republic.

The graceful cobblestones were now filled with people. Thousands of people poured their gaze onto the balcony of the official residence where the royal palace was converted.

"The sky demon realm Daimkuld despicable millions! It has now reached its extreme here!! He conspired with the Kingdom of Laez to abduct Her Royal Highness, the First Princess of the Row Kingdom!!!"

Second President of the Republic of Senri.

Senri's Witch.

Evelina Anzanello.

People are looking up at the figure of the masterpiece of national saving the country who raises his voice from the balcony.

"The era of fear of violence is no longer over!! We have successfully developed an extremely effective weapon against the Daimkurud!! With this Recruit Weapon - Anti-Spirit Costume, the Demon King's fears will be wiped out from the earth!! The Republic of Senri is here now! Declare war on the Daimkurud!!"

An enormous cheer pushed up the blue sky.

Evelina Anzanello, the second President of the Republic of Senri.

Because she is called a "witch", she is neither a fighting force nor a charisma.

Your tongue.

The tongue of magic that makes people passionate.

The extreme incitement of politicians. In that manner she shall be called a witch, and with awe.

"I don't need a coward on this continent right now!!" In the name of freedom and equality, you must reclaim the sky from the Demon King!! Listen, you pathetic silent kingdom of Rowe!! Listen to me, you vile, violent Daimkuld!! Nothing special, no bloodlines, our union everywhere will save the world like the heroes of old!! Long live the republic!! long live democracy!! Freedom and equality, be forever!! "

◆◆◆―――――――◆◆◆ ―――――――◆◆◆

"...... Is the Senri Republic behind Diederich?"

Azela was furious at my bitter murmur.

"I say, keep it to yourself!" Laez and Dymkuld conspired! "

Well, from the circumstances, that's all I can think.

Ruby looked somewhere uncomfortable.

"In fact, Daimkurud is biting one piece." "Hey, Demon King?"

"Come on, Ruby..." I know it's my wrongdoing. "

It moves too fast.

Was the Senri Republic involved before, or did the situation change rapidly from the time the evil god appeared?

In any case, there must have been seeds somewhere.

There are seeds that the Diederichs could betray me - Evelyn, or Sarah, must have known about them for a long time.

"Jack... I think this is probably a waste of time."

I nod to Rachel's words.

"Oh, I know. It would be hard to make time for the evil gods to descend." At the same time, if it becomes a war, the power of the evil god will increase.... "

Above all,

”-To re-establish the Salvation Agreement, Laes and Senri must not enter a state of war.”

Elvis opened his eyes wide and focused his gaze on me.

"Jack... I've been listening to you for a while now, evil gods and salvation agreements... what are you fighting now?" Isn't Diederich the only enemy? "

"Oh... you can barely see at that height yet." For a few days now, didn't you notice something like a black dot in the sky? "

"Ah, there it is! There it is!" I was wondering if there was some kind of garbage floating around! "

Most humans would still recognize that.

I told Vinny.

"Vinnie, do you have a picture?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I put a picture of a leaf that Vinny gave me on the table.

"This is the black dot."

Elvis stepped forward and peered into the picture.

The image quality of the telescope was coarse, but it certainly captured the entire contents of the evil god Baal.

"What? This... spider?"

"It looks like the monsters the [Massacre Heroes] were with..."

"Hey, wait a minute, this is so far away, right? Even though it's so far away, I can see it with my naked eye....."

"The total length is not exactly known. But I'm pretty sure there's enough room for a couple of Reynard Lakes.”

…………

Reynard Lake is the water resource of the Kingdom of Laez. It was said that all of them were still insufficient, and it seemed that the magnitude of the threat caught up with the imagination a little.

That's not all. The evil god Baal scatters countless of his family like Diederich was with him. Moreover, the thread has the property of nullifying spirit magic.

About a month later, it falls to the ground.

These explanations added to the seriousness of Elvis' expression.

"Now you know, don't you? That's why Dymkuld stopped."

"Yeah... it's not like we're at war."

In the different histories that Rachel has experienced, something called the "War of the Evil Gods" is said to have occurred about 50 years ago.

At that time, the evil gods resurrected and the Fiamas succeeded in their capitulation... but in the history we live in, there is a major war in the Three Kingdoms in the near future.

The Synod War.

Since the "Synod" is abhorrent, the war that involved all of the continent, now called the "previous war", did not occur in the history of the evil gods - or was interrupted.

As you can guess, Sharo intervened to finish off the heroes of various countries.

As a result, the evil god Baal reacted to the outbreak of the war and came back to life...

And the war had to be interrupted by the dangers of this world's existence.

Happy or unhappy, we are still in the same situation.

This is a great opportunity to combine the footsteps of the three great kingdoms and the Daimki Kurds.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to interrupt Daimkurud's military action, unite the nations in a salvation pact against the evil gods and the salo-this was my plan.

”If the war between Laez and Senri starts, it'll ruin everything.”

Seize Helmina.

That's all it took to make this work. It's such an irritating move.

Unlike before, Saroh should not have timed it out from [this cause and effect] - but she prepared a solution that seemed to know the future.

"This is... a story about another world..."

Azerea looked at Rachel strangely as she began to talk to her.

Another world?

"Ah, uh, I've been looping around these months many times--"

"... no, Rachel, it's going to be a long story."

"Oh, I see... you know,"

"(Hey, it used to be called 'Master', but now it's abandoned, can I stick it in?)"

Ruby... if you talk about it, it's going to be a long one.

Slip through and listen to Rachel.

"This is something I've experienced... but I don't think the Senri Republic will stop fighting if an evil god appears in the sky."

"Oh, that's right..."

In fact, I didn't stop.

Even though the beauty of the big spider was clearly visible in the sky, the Republic of Senri - no, Evelina Anzanello did not stop fighting.

"Huh? This kind of thing is on my head and I can't ignore it, right?"

"Yeah. Whatever the reason for the battle, you can't ignore the obvious danger overhead." The soldiers will also be afraid. "

Gawain also said it from the Knights' perspective.

No, not necessarily.

But this time, Elvis spoke from a royal-political perspective.

This big spider is an evil god sealed by the legendary Four Heroes, right? However, the Senri Republic was established after defeating the family of the four heroes. "

"..... ah"

"I see...!"

I didn't think of that. I mean...

"If you admit the existence of an evil god, you'd be 'better off with a house of brave men' after all..."

"Yes, Senri is now a democratic republic - it is established by the support of the people." The basis of that support was, of course, the defeat of the royalty and nobility who had perfected the bad governance, that is, the descendants of the heroes. The historical fact that the House of Heroes was defeated was recognized by the people as "right", so there is the Senri Republic now--but if an evil god appears there, the legitimacy of defeating the House of Heroes will be shaken. No matter what else they admit, they shouldn't just admit evil gods. That's why we may still be trying to divert the eyes of the people from the evil gods of the sky to the kingdom of Laez. "

Such political rationality existed in the movement of the Senri Republic at that time...!

... no, but...

"That's all I can't explain..." I feel that way... "

Huh?

"I can't explain it well..." But for some reason... something in me says, 'There's no reason why I shouldn't be so rational.' As for that witch - Evelina Anzanello. "

I've never spoken to that senri witch face to face.

It wasn't even in Rachel's memory.

And yet, instincts are warning us. About her spookiness.

"... no, it's okay. Forget it. Anyway, to confront the evil gods, there is no other way than to unite the will of the three kingdoms, conclude a salvation agreement, and use four kinds of artifacts. You can't fight Senri just in case. If you fight once, you won't be able to pull back anymore."

"... that's right. I think it will be more difficult if the Kingdom of Raw responds to Senri's call."

“To prevent that, all you have to do is expose their big lies.”

"--You 're going to get Helmina back, right?"

I nodded.

"If Helmina can prove to herself that the abductor is Senri, the Kingdom of Row will be an enemy of the Senri Republic." That way, it will be hard to keep the Republic at war, no matter how hot Evelina Anzanello wields her arms. At least, you can drag it out to the negotiating table-- "

I wonder if I can rescue one princess.

This is a simple battle.

"The rescue is a small number of elites, so it's better to do it in secret."... can you all help me? "

"It's the opposite. You'll help me, won't you?"

Elvis laughs, and I loosen my mouth.

It seemed to be a stupid question.

Do you have any idea where Helmina is?

"Daimkuld. In the Republic of Sentri, there is no excuse in case of leakage."

"I agree." Who's going to rescue you next? "

It was better to leave some strength in the palace as well.

After hearing Elvis's opinions, I decided to leave Azelea behind, who was too flashy and unsuitable for covert action.

I thought it would be just fine if it was a woman, but she looked terribly awkward.

"Good luck, Azela."

"Hah... I see, I'll do my best..."

With Rachel's thin support, Azela sighed and accepted.

As a result, the math is ready.

After taking a break and getting ready, we head out of the back yard to head for Daimkurt.

"-Come on, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here, let's do it here.
