Selling the dragon material returns to the mansion and reports it to the people who were waiting in the living room.

I was away on my own this time.

Melissa and Noel were not in such a state that they could go away, and had asked the other three to gather information.

We need to move ahead in order not to get into trouble.

I'll report it to you before you get your report.

"Um, shouldn't we sit on the couch and make a report, if possible?

"... I'm tired."

Now I was pillowing on Melissa's knee.

I can clearly tell that I am tired, is this way relative to her body with excuses.

"You're getting really big"

The season was about to fall.

Three months after Melissa and Noel became pregnant. Normally, my stomach grows to the point where I feel pregnant. But now Melissa was making it big enough to clearly see that she was pregnant. The same goes for Noel, the beast man.

Apparently, the application of [space-time magic] was the result of faster fetal growth.

"Are you sure you're okay?

"It's okay. From here it grows as slowly as usual. It seems that using any more magic is a heavy burden on my body, so I will only use it when I really can't stand it"

A little over six months in size.

At this rate, they're going to be born naturally in about three months, so they're going to be born about the same as the Beast Man.

"But you can't keep the price down just because I'm not around"

"Really?

"I could negotiate and make you double the price. But it can never be a bad thing. You would be right to have kept it at a moderate price if you were to think about future relationships. Maybe he offered a unicorn horn in anticipation of the neighborhood."

Unicorn horn.

And white gold coins.

I kept both on hand.

"What are you going to do?

"We might have some use for it, so let's leave it. I can afford magic right now, and I'm not persecuting you."

I might find another use and make more money.

If left in a toolbox (item box), it will not decay, so there is no trouble storing it.

"Let's get to the point more than that. Accurate information was not available in foreign countries. But the Empire seemed wary."

The Glenvarga Empire ruled by Rio.

There's nothing like an emperor, Rio, attacking the kingdom because he made a covenant with me before. Because I'm going to turn to the enemy the moment I break my promise to you. I don't know how much Empire power you will consume to defeat one of me... in the worst case scenario, I can even think of annihilation.

Rio became emperor a few years ago.

To the north of the Glenvarga Empire, there was a country called the Gardis Empire that was targeted by tigers.

Alternatively, skirmishes continued in the border zone aimed at bumpy gaps.

Not so far. No, it's not good because it's getting harder to get to the Gardis Empire, but it was a supposed event.

The problem was the movement of the kingdom of Metis bordering the western border.

There was also a coup d 'état in the Kingdom.

It's a coup. I even heard that the coup planned around the corner ended in success.

"The young grandson of the Duke, who was now pushing for the coup, is acting as king"

Iris tells me.

They were asking me to gather information inside the kingdom while I was away.

"He's like ten now"

"... there will be a king in such a child?

"There's no reason to serve. So the Duke is assistant in administration as prime minister"

Then the Duke himself should be king.

It wasn't that I didn't think so, but it wasn't that simple.

"Do you remember that you need conditions to be king of this country?

"Of course."

To reach the lowest level of the labyrinth in the basement of the royal castle and be recognized as the Lord of the Labyrinth.

You just have to reach it, which doesn't mean it was the least you could do to be a blood muscle that would bring you into the royal family.

"The Duke is the brother of the former king. So, the king's sister is married to the duke's son. In other words, the grandson, who became the king's deputy, has inherited the blood of the royal family in darkness."

"Is that okay?

You may have more stillbirths when you have children with someone close to you by blood, or you may have a variety of problems even at birth.

So normally it's something to avoid.

"I can't help it. Because you need to be close to the royal family in order to maintain your status as a Duke."

Melissa, who was a former nobleman, explains it.

Have a title that leads to the royal family.

Sometimes inheritance is granted if there is a problem with the royal family and no one is left to inherit the throne.

As a result, there is no hematological problem.

Sometimes I descend my daughter from the royal family and send my daughter from the Duke's family to the royal family for daughter-in-law.

"I guess the Duke himself was not judged eligible to be a labyrinth lord because of the issue of lineage. And that's a story I can tell the Duke's sons, and I don't think that labyrinth nucleus recognizes women as eligible. But the young grandson must have been recognized."

Of course, many were not convinced that young children would become kings.

But the crown glowed the moment the Duke, who had also ministered in a place that had gathered many, put the crown over the head of a child who had become the new king.

The people who saw the sight made a scene.

The crown that generations of kings have inherited.

The crown can emit a strong light when recognized as king.

"It seems to be a famous story among the top nobles."

Nobles like those beside kings are inherited unless they are also major coups d 'état. So he was also told about the ritual of the king's inauguration, which showed that he was king by gathering only those close to him.

I guess the opposite is true, though.

Being recognized by the crown doesn't make you king.

The crown emitted light because the labyrinth recognized it as a king.

"Next time I get a chance to see you, I'll [appraise] you."

Probably the goods produced by the power of the labyrinth.

I don't know what effect it has on the crown, but maybe it means something.

"Now I know who the king is."

In essence, it's like the Duke family took power.

It is unlikely that it will affect even the Arkanam region, which is a peripheral border, but we need to be vigilant with one human being in power.

"The problem is we're going to start a war"

King's Capital, which is a bummer.

It was even taking place until the reorganization of the forces of war, and there was no excuse for fear of the possibility of waging war.

On the face of it, it needs to be reorganized under the influence of a coup d 'état, it is said.

However, we are gathering supplies for the Wang capital.

There is no need to even prepare supplies if the aim is simply to regroup the forces of war.

"He's a duke in power, but the grandson of the new duke who became king has no track record at all. You want a proven record as a famous general here."

kingdoms and empires that have been contending for years.

If we could take a little victory from the Empire, we could put a minimum of foil on it as an achievement.

"But we're going to war because we want a track record?

"It's war."

Melissa casually answered Noel's question.

"It's not just the people up there who want to go to war. Knights and generals confident in martial arts are a great opportunity to show their strength. You can't miss this chance. We need war for these people."

You wouldn't be convinced as an Illis who lost his family in the war, but it's also true that there are aspects of the war that are necessary.

That's why I'm not going to affirm the war.

"It's pathetic that people get into that kind of problem."
