Golden Experience

Episode 509 - Falsehoods

A place that used to be called the Kingdom of Hirus.

No, there are those who still call it that. While many people call it the "Hirus Region" or the "Old Hirus Kingdom," there are those who still call it the Hirus Kingdom.

There were three main types of them.

The first was the crass ones who couldn't keep up with the changing times.

The first is those who can't keep up with the changing times, who can't suddenly switch the name they used to use, and still call it that even after the kingdom has died out.

One is the person who doesn't know that the Kingdom of Hirus no longer exists.

One is the lucky one who lives in a different region and was not involved in the continental war. Because of this, there are a surprising number of people who are unaware of the rise and fall of other countries. Mostly in rural villages where there is no interaction with others.

And finally, those who know everything, but dare to call it a "kingdom" because they know everything, meaning that there is a mighty king in the Hils region.

A king who unites a powerful organization called Magnamerum.

That is the Lord of Zeke and the true ruler of the city that Zeke is in charge of.

The capital that Zeke is in charge of is the place where the capital of the Kingdom of Hirs used to be.

Zeke's master took this city, which was supposed to be a hostile force, and incredibly, he took it almost intact.

It must have been a good thing that he was able to dispose of the defensive forces efficiently. Using a never-before-seen method of airborne descent by the Adamant Knights, we brought the city to a melee from the very beginning, blocking their ranged attacks and mowing down the enemy forces in a white-knuckle battle.

Of course, some of the houses were burned or collapsed, but they had already been repaired by excellent engineers.

The same goes for the royal castle where Zeke is now.

The castle was built by the Hirsus royal family, which is an abomination to Zeke.

However, the scenery is certainly nice, and the building is blameless. Rhea, the current master of the castle, is also very fond of it.

Zeke was proud to be in charge of such a castle and the capital.

There were many visitors in this royal capital.

They were called mercenaries.

As a city ruled by demons, a demon city, it is attacked day and night by those who want to retake it or search for it.

These raids are exactly what Rare intended, and they dare to create some gaps in order to keep people coming back.

Many of the mercenaries are gentiles. Zeke's master sometimes calls them "Pleya".

Their principles of behavior are completely incomprehensible to Sieg, but that is not the case for Lord Rea.

The suicide attacks of the mercenaries who seemed to be throwing away their lives, which in many areas would be thought of as "a sudden increase in the frequency of attacks without warning," was within the expectation of the Royal Capital Defense Force, which had been told in advance that this was highly likely.

This day's suicide attack was quite fierce and lasted until midnight, and there was a possibility that some of them might even reach the royal castle for the first time.

In the midst of all this, there was a person who took advantage of the gap in the security guards preparing for the attack by the gentiles and entered the castle.

"So, what are you doing here, Vincent?

The audience room.

I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not, but I'm sure you've heard of it.

It was his former colleague, Vincent, the Second Knight Commander.

Vincent silently shook his body from side to side and looked at Zeke. I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one who's a fan of your work.

...... Let him go.

In response to Zeke's instructions, Adamant Alma, who was restraining Vincent, let go of his hand.

They are not Zeke's subordinates, but the direct subordinates of the Lord, so they can only give instructions orally.

Vincent, who was released, exaggeratedly turned his shoulders to make an appeal, glanced at Adamant Alma and the others, and shrugged his shoulders. The Adamant Alma and the others were unmoved. They would not be taken in by this kind of provocation.

I'll ask you again. What are you doing here, Vincent? Does Master Bran know about this?

Vincent nodded broadly, as if to say, "Of course.

He put his hands together to form a flower bud shape, then immediately fluttered his palms downward to form a wave.

He then made a gesture as if he were drinking something, and raised his hands lightly in a double biceps. The bony body peeking out from underneath the armor, or rather, the only bones that could be seen, gave off an air of melancholy.

Vincent could not speak yet.

Therefore, it is difficult for him to communicate with those who are not connected to him through "messenger".

In order for Zeke to know Vincent's purpose, he needs to decipher this poor gesture.

"...... eggs? And waves? No? Then what is it? The ocean? I don't know. The pose after that is ...... His Majesty the Spirit King? So what was he drinking before that was nutritional supplements? Not at all? Yeah, what the hell?

"Dear Zeke. I'm sorry to bother you while you're enjoying yourself, but I've prepared something like this for you. I'm sorry to interrupt your fun, but I've prepared something like this. I think it will help you communicate with Vincent-sama.

A subordinate maid, Revenant, brought paper, ink and a pen. I'm sure you're asking me to write with this.

"Oh, thank you. It's not that I'm not enjoying it. Also, I don't need to address him by his name.

When Vincent was handed a piece of paper, he placed it on the floor and began to write.

I wanted to tell him to write a letter and bring it to me, since he should have known this would happen.

When I finished, I looked at the paper Vincent had given me.

It says, "Um, .......

I want the Philosopher's Stone. Preferably a great one. The price has been promised in the name of Count Joffroa de Havilland. But nutritional supplements are totally off the mark, but it was close enough. The look on your face as you watched me dance so intently was amusing... you!

I rolled up a piece of paper and threw it at him.

I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not. It's an irritating pose.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

It's not a problem if you're restraining a suspicious person, but attacking with clear hostility is an act that will destroy the Lord's face.

"...... Damn it! That's fine. I'm sure you're not the only one. I understand.

But the Philosopher's Stone. I have it, but I can't give it to you at my own discretion. I'll check with the Lord and give you a moment.

I contacted Rare using a mysterious technology called "Friend Chat".

He had heard about the transfer of the Great Philosopher's Stone. It seems that the Archangel Sally, the guardian of the Hanging Gardens, had been informed, but Zeke in the royal capital, who was not expected to come, had not been informed.

In the middle of the French chat, a civilian wight came hurriedly into the audience hall.

The maid revenants received the report and came towards Zeke, but he controlled them with his hand.

He was in the middle of a conversation with the Lord. No one is allowed to interfere with that.

Vincent, who seems to have heard the report of the civil servant Wight, is also dancing a mysterious dance, but there is no time to deal with him. Who do you think you are contacting the Lord for?

After a while, Zeke shut down Furedo Chatto and received another report.

At the moment when Maid Revenant was about to open her mouth.

bang! The door of the audience room was violently opened with a sound.

As far as Zeke knew, this door had never been opened in such a way before.

The people standing there were not the wights, revenants, or Adamant series working at the castle.

...... Gentiles, huh? I'm glad to see you've finally found your way here.

I guess that's what I just reported. I don't need to listen to it anymore.

"Isn't that Septem?

Who is it? Isn't this Septem's castle?

The man who was the leader of the gentiles who had invaded shouted.

Septem is another name for Rea. Apparently, they had come here to see Rhea.

I'd like to ask you who you are, but there's no point in asking, and I can almost tell without asking.

You are correct that this is the castle of my Lord Septem.

But there are some things that are wrong. I'll tell you.

Zeke stood up from his overly large throne.

First of all, my Lord is a very busy man. First of all, my Lord is a very busy man, he rarely stays in his castle to do anything. Therefore, each of his strongholds has a trusted representative who is responsible for managing the stronghold. That's why it's not always possible to meet them when they come to the castle controlled by the Lord.

Leah is currently in the process of exploring new lands in the western continent. And one more thing.

And one more thing. And one more thing, if you are going to call out to my Lord, you must use the word "sama", gentile.

At Zeke's line, the maid revenant who had been waiting jumped at him.

She is one of Zeke's dependents. The Revenant, strengthened by Zeke's Deadly Wards, is several times stronger than those they have defeated before reaching this point.

But even so, they were no match for the gentiles.

The maid who jumped at them was cut down by the vanguard with a single sword.

I see, they are strong.

If I'm not good enough, I might have the ability to approach Adamant Alma or even Adamandux, who is a commander. There is something to be said for having reached this point.

I guess this is what the Lord calls a "top-tier pleiad".

In the past, he was only as powerful as an adamanite, but he has grown to this level.

Vincent braced himself when he saw what was going on.

The gentiles were in a party of about ten people.

If it was one on one, Vincent would not be able to win if all of them had the same level of ability.

"Stay back, Vincent. I'll deal with them.

The other remaining maid revenants and civilian wights look at Zeke. I'm sure you've heard of it. He seems to be loosening up because of Vincent.

He pushes Vincent aside as if to protect him and stands in front of the gentiles.

At that time, he made Vincent hold the Philosopher's Stone Great.

It is impossible for Zeke to be defeated by an opponent of this caliber, but there may be a chance that he will let Vincent escape. Even if he is like this, he is at least a guest. I can't let him get hurt. It's a good idea to give it to him first.

Ignore what he's saying! The theory behind boss battles is to attack the weakest ones first! Let's take care of the small fry first!

With the leader's words, the gentiles started attacking the surrounding maids and civil servants. Adamant Alma and Adamant Umbra, who had been waiting in reserve, quickly took cover.

However, the gentile party was not the only vanguard.

Perhaps it is because there are many demons in full body armor that arrows cannot pass through here, but there are no archers, but there are wizards. An attack that seemed to be "light magic" flew at us from behind.

I'm not sure what to make of it. It's not just the power of light magic, but the speed. It is impossible to deal with it when you see it.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what to do.

You can hear Vincent's roar from behind.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

I'm not sure what to make of this. I'm not sure what to make of this. Everyone! Aim for that undead knight! Ignore the others for now!

However, it seems that Zeke's actions had caused the gentiles to make unnecessary inquiries.

The target of the attack was changed to Vincent, and the magic flew one after another.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

This is the extent of it. That's about it.

He took all the magic aimed at Vincent behind his back with his body, and checked the approaching shielder with his sword.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

In the event you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. I'm not sure what to do.

Whenever Zeke is attacked, Vincent's roar echoes.

I'm not sure if he's worried about Zeke. No, it can't be. Vincent is not such a cute guy. If anything, he's the kind of guy who laughs at Zeke being attacked. Maybe this is just his laughing voice. It's an amusing thing.

However, if he can roar so much, why didn't he use a roar instead of a gesture? For example, if it were the Philosopher's Stone, he could have said, "Een aaaaayyy.

"Huh.

I couldn't help but laugh when I imagined it. I'm sure this will be mistaken for a fur seal gesture.

Aaaaaaaaah!

At that moment, he felt a tremendous rush of power from behind him.

Vincent is the only one behind Zeke.

Then this power must be Vincent's.

I turned around in a panic.

And there he was, wrapped in light, Vincent's figure.

Everyone in the room stopped moving and stared at the glowing Vincent.

The gentiles also stopped their hands completely.

After a while, the light disappeared.

There stood a pale, soft-skinned man with an air of dignity.

The Philosopher's Stone Great was already gone in his hand. It must have been consumed as a catalyst for reincarnation.

I'll never forget this face.

It's Vincent.

I'm sure you're not the only one. You protected me. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. You think you're standing above me with that? ......!

I'm not sure what to say.

You will find a lot of things that you can do to make your life easier.

What are you talking about? I've always been better than you. It is the duty of a knight to protect the weak.

"....... I don't like that about you. I'll tell you again, you idiot. I'm not so weak that I need someone to protect me. I can do everything by myself. Now and always.

"Hmm. Don't be so tough.

He's still the same man he was when he was alive. Vincent was always strong.

You will find a lot of people who are looking for a new way of life.

It's not that I don't like it.

I don't know if it was because Zeke was his peer or because he was a commoner.

"Don't be silly. Don't be silly. Strength is the source of my power. No, I'm not trying to be tough, but...

"What the hell is that ......? Power up? Did you do it? I'm not sure what to make of it. What kind of event is this ......?

I'm sure you're aware of that. It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything you like.

The gentiles are saying something incomprehensible.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

It's a good way to get used to the idea. I'm sure you'll be able to tell me more about the capabilities of this body later.

"Ask Mister Diaz. I'm not sure I know what I'm doing.

"Ask the old man! Oh no!

Vincent pulled out his sword while swearing and headed towards the gentiles.

I'm not sure what to say.

"Hmm...

"What can I do for you, my lord?

The Count felt a great stream of power flowing through him, somewhere inside him.

I don't know where I did it, but apparently I did it well.

I don't know where I did it, but apparently I did it well. "No, because you seem to have awakened.

My subordinate, Vincent the False...
