Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

A port town in the south of the Kingdom of Memphis - DuPont.

It is noisy because ships carrying goods from various countries are stopping in a city that has developed enough to say that it is flourishing after the Wang Capital, both domestically and in other countries.

A week after that.

The kingdom of Memphis, where the goddess Tishua was rammed. I thought I would have settled down somewhat and was flying over the sea to visit Dupont by myself.

but it showed a different noise than when I visited it before.

The roads in the city were busy with large numbers of people. The harbor must be busy loading, unloading, etc., but the north should have shown a calm atmosphere for the sake of it. For that reason, nobles who wanted to set up mansions in the city should have built them on the north side.

I can't see you calm like that.

"... call the others for now"

Sylvia and all the others [summon].

Is it a recoil when they were gone, and despite the fact that it's been a week since then, the kids won't try to leave Master Tishua. Well, thanks to you, my mothers, they can accompany me without getting annoyed.

"In the meantime, where should we go?

The Kingdom of Memphis is the home of Noel, but I don't know if you ask her because she's never been to Dupont at all.

"Let's go to the Lords' Hall."

"Uh, okay?

Ask Melissa if an adventurer like us can go to her words.

"Normally, absolutely not. But we have Mr. Noel here. If you're going to look into the current noise, it's going to be quick to ask the greatest people in the city."

That's why we head to the Lords' Hall.

When we arrived at the Lords' Hall scratching the crowd, we found that Melissa's suggestion was not a mistake.

There was a large garden in the Lords' Hall, but a large number of carriages were parked there.

Many more are rushing around the mansion in a hurry. A maid can also be seen through a window that can also be seen from the outside, but other than that, someone who seems to be a civilian runs down the hallway with materials.

Neither, though lords, is the number of people a nobleman can hold.

"You 're--"

Looking at the mansion, I noticed that Illis was guarding the mansion like a gatekeeper in front of the door.

I don't know his name, but he's the knight I saw in the royal castle.

I'm not supposed to be the kind of person who acts as a gatekeeper.

"Excuse me."

"This is...!

"Don't publish about our identity."

Many people are still nearby.

It's lame to be known that Noel is a 'witch' in such a situation. Did the knight convince you too? I nodded with a serious face.

"So, what is this noise? I stopped by before I went to Wang Capital and it was an unusual noise, so maybe even a new one happened?

I'm not one of those people I don't know.

Depending on the reward, I can help you.

"Going to Wangdu...?

I told him the purpose of visiting the Kingdom of Memphis again and he tipped my neck.

It was suddenly decided to make an appearance oblivious, so it was up to me to check the situation afterwards.

Busy information could not be obtained from outside the country because of the fluttering within the Kingdom of Memphis. If I had asked Tishua before, I would have obtained some information, but now I have no information at all. We had to go on our own.

"I see. You don't know anything."

A frightened knight holds his head.

He then asks the knight who passed by nearby to change the gatekeeper and leads him inside the hall.

The deepest room in the hall.

A knight knocks on that room.

"Get in."

Short words.

But the voice sounded familiar.

"We have a customer"

"Customer...? You guys, where have you been... no, it seems safe."

King Leonid, the king of the kingdom of Memphis, was in the room where the lord should be.

I just couldn't help but hide how tired I was, more than we knew.

"How did you end up in Dupont?

"Well... you don't know what happened to Wang Du after that"

The current state of King Leonid's capital, which King Leonid tells us, was shocking.

From the threat of the goddess Tishua, the King's capital was helped. But the nail marks she left behind were too deep.

"'Ghosts' killed 20% of the inhabitants of the King's capital, and more than 30% of humans sustained some kind of injury."

The wounded also include those injured in Gotagota during evacuation, even if they have not been directly attacked by ghosts.

Those who were not injured were also not in such a state that they could move with exhaustion.

"After all, it seems that the battle against the 'ghost' was not such as to withstand the weakened soldiers of the Kingdom of Memphis"

Many of the victims are soldiers and knights.

There was a royal family who couldn't keep quiet in such circumstances.

"No way--"

"Leonid's guy left"

He was struggling to get out of the city and take command of the struggling knights.

That's his kind of behavior that usually keeps the army as a general. I didn't do anything to actively stop it because it worked even if I thought it was dangerous to be on the battlefield.

That became a vendetta.

I was in a place where I was safe… I was supposed to be safe, but I was struck by surprise.

"There was nothing left of his body."

Only bright red clothes wet in blood were left behind.

Then the goddess Tishua was crusaded thanks to our struggle.

"I know about the goddess disappearing. But the 'ghosts' left behind something outrageous."

A large number of ghosts were rampant in the Wang capital.

All ghosts were sent back to people, and the “filth” they had wrapped around them was scattered.

The bodies of those who touch the “filth” will rot.

"Well, I'm sure it won't affect the human body."

"Apparently, the“ dirty ”concentration was more than we assumed."

Many of them were recovered by vain eaters.

However, there were limits to the amount that could be recovered even if mobilized in total, so we had to leave the rest alone.

It seems that some of them have died, making the Wang Capital an environment where no one can live for a while.

"I've had to abandon the King's capital because of it"

You can't call it a capital if people can't live there.

"Besides, I didn't want to be in a place where things were spreading like letting my youngest son die."

"Huh..."

King Leonid had four princes.

My oldest son died in battle on the battlefield, and four men died of illness caused by environmental pollution.

Further incidents ensued.

"Wherever to abandon the Wang Capital, the place of emigration was decided... after worrying"

Although tentative, DuPont was now treated as the Wang Capital.

Dissatisfied with the decision were those who were forced to bring them from villages near Wang Capital to Wang Capital. The village they lived in had escaped the influence of critical “filth”. If I lived in the village like that, I wouldn't have to suffer.

Moreover, the King's decision made them decide to emigrate to DuPont. If you follow the king, you can have some life covered. However, if we take another action, we will be expelled without any safeguards. They can't go back to their original lives. They have no choice but to obey.

However, that doesn't make me unhappy.

"I meant to counter my dissatisfaction by guaranteeing my life, but it was sweet"

Usually I could think a little more.

But he just lost both his son and couldn't afford it.

I promised to guarantee my life if I moved to Dupont. However, we cannot state clearly how we will guarantee it, and there is little room for them to intervene because DuPont is a city completed as a port town.

Their future was anointed with anxiety.

"Rebellion broke out while evacuating with the inhabitants"

I thought it would happen one day.

The situation in which we are acting together to reassure the refugees has turned out to be an opportune opportunity for them to wage rebellion.

"Soldiers are stronger. Still, because they were so passive, they allowed a man with a weapon to approach them."

That's when my second son stood up and protected me.

Apparently the stabbing spot on the knife was bad, resulting in his death without merit of treatment.

"... we're just getting ready to receive the refugees in Dupont with the remaining Norris"

We cannot act with those who revolt.

Plus, we need to get ready on the receiving side. The Kings decided to rush to DuPont, leaving only a minimum of soldiers at the refuge escort.

"Got it? Florentine, the king of the kingdom of Memphis, is no longer there."
