General Shade immediately instructed his lieutenant to move the troops as we intended.

We must also devote our forces to rebuilding the village of Loire and ensuring the safety of its nearby inhabitants, but sudden moves by the entire army to confront the National Army could stimulate it.

You don't have to buy a long time. We need to break enemy lines and decide the battle at once. There are a number of objectives to be fulfilled to that end.

One is to liberate the royal people, including King Rathklis.

Secondly, we need to rescue General Zinaida, who we believe will be on our side.

Three, defeat General Glasgow, who is believed to be the leader of the rebellion.

Some of the uncertainties include Leon and Lugard's presence, but I'm not going to delay their ambush. However, next time, I will do my best to break the war from the beginning. Given what they have done, they cannot be said to be given a respite from reflection.

"Nevertheless... even though it's not good for us to get involved with the upheavals in our neighborhood, how about always wearing a mask?"

Yes, our party was wearing a mask and surrounding the table in the castle's operations room. The members participating in the meeting were five Demon King Crusaders, nine Masters, Verlaine, Sphere, and Mermaire.

General Shade still has something to ask, so I decided to talk to him later. I flew over from Forensia Castle and asked for a lot of things right away, but I can't thank you enough for moving me around without a stinging face.

"It's just us now, so maybe we can take it off. Masquerade meetings are fun too. Dick, if you wear a mask, I'll see to it! It's like"

"Well spotted... that's right, it's me. And when you're playing."

"Fufu... Dee, you're so cute. I don't usually tell jokes."

"Dick is a bit of a pussy, isn't he? Ah, yes, I don't flush it like that."

It must be a pity because it is about Eileen if I rinse it lightly. That's the idea, but if you take it so favorably, you'll be embarrassed.

"Well, leave that story... for the future. I don't want to diminish the protection of this castle, but we need to attack it quickly. The enemy is going to execute King Ratclis and the royal man. We have to rescue them as soon as possible."

"Ah... Dear Dick, I know your strength, but if you try to get into enemy territory, it's a great danger."

"Don't worry about it, Princess Mermaire. It would be ideal for us to make our own operation rather than having our allies fight and sacrifice. As I did once when I entered Elsein and fought Lord Verlaine."

I advised Verlaine to sit in the chair, but she declined and stood behind me diagonally all the time. When she was shook up, she stepped forward and lined up beside me.

"The important thing is that our enemies also have undeterred combat power. Lugard survives being attacked by the Shaker I summoned, Leon is protected by the Armor Spirit, and has the power to be an SS ranked adventurer. If we don't take appropriate measures against them, something could happen."

"That's right... Yuma and I need to stay out of close combat. If you think about it, even if you go into enemy territory, it's not the final stage."

An undercover mission carries the risk of getting close to the enemy. That means me and Cody, Eileen, Verlaine, Master - and Sphere are the right people to infiltrate.

"Dad, I can fight too. I saw a man named Lugard fighting his father, and I thought I shouldn't be afraid."

I see. Great, Sphere. "

"Yeah, I'm the daughter of my father and my mother. Don't be cowardly."

"Hey... wait a minute, Sphere, Irene, your mother's weak for that kind of thing, and her lacrimal glands are already loosening... uhh, embarrassing"

"I forbid you to suddenly say things like a kind father. Don't even think about it... it'll be hard for you to do."

Even if it's called an eye, when you look at Sphere, it's nature and parental gaze. Compared to the early days, my father's consciousness has grown considerably.

"Ha-ha, I haven't cried like this in a long time. Sphere, will you sleep with me later on for the sacrifice that cut your mother's throat?

"Eh... uhh, yeah. But with your father....."

"That's right, because I want to sweeten my father. We'll keep an eye on her."

"Maybe Yuma is the mother. Even though it's the smallest."

"Hauu... yes, it may be small now, but it's getting bigger. At least make sure Sphere's sister doesn't see you."

Yuma calls Sphere honorably, either because she looks so young or because she treats her daughter with respect. Sphere was embarrassed, but apparently happy.

"Excuse me during the meeting, I just got a report."

At that time, a voice is heard from outside - Verlaine answers and brings the letter home.

Verlaine puts the brief before me. That was the information we wanted from the National Army officer who surrendered to us.

"Where the King and his family are captured… they have been taken from the Royal Palace and transferred to the Separate Palace. Executions are carried out in the execution yard near the palace....."

"... Glasgow is trying to lure out the rest of the royal family, Mermaire, by spreading the word about executions. What a despicable..."

When the enemy spread the word that they would execute the royal family, we would turn our backs completely - but the National Army did not expect us to repel them, and it is unlikely that the information would have leaked at this stage.

However, looking at the attitude of the National Army soldiers, the date for execution is not so far away. Even if General Glasgow had originally established a relationship of trust with the King, it would not be a development to talk to the King because Glasgow has actually stepped out of the rebellion.

"So are the captured royals, but I hope General Ginada is still alive... so little information for now."

After all, there are rumored speculations, and it is not clear what happened to General Ginada. It's just that the glass goal tore it up and there's a good chance they caught it.

"Let's ask General Shade if he has any clues as to where he's being held. If they were the same four generals, they might know something... ah, they just came."

When my mentor gave me his opinion, it was General Shade who was moving outside, just replacing me with the soldier of the Message.

"I apologize for the delay, but the chain of command is over, so I'll leave the rest to the officers."

"Oh, we just need to ask General Shade something right now."

"Yes, I'll answer anything you can to tell me… but I'm surprised that the people who captured this castle and left the national army, except Lord Duke and the other one, were women… even so young"

"Uh, uh, I'm Dee... Duke, your father's daughter."

"What...?!? Therefore, I was masked and my voice was distorted, but I saw that Duke was a young man. Have you already had such a big daughter? -This is my pleasure."

Even in surprise, General Shade is honest, and everyone around the table laughs. It is easy to imagine that all of them would be even more surprised if they were mothers.

"Ah, General. My daughter is a good fighter, and I didn't bring her here for fun... but I want to ask you one thing. Do you have any idea where General Ginada is being held?

"It's... a prison west of the royal palace, I suppose..."

"I see... I see. There will be no guarantee that the prisoners will be sent to this location, but it is more likely that we will be able to rescue General Ginada even if the location is restricted. If you can, please tell me as much as you know."

General Shade's teeth are badly cut and he still hasn't said anything - I can see that in my eyes.

Yuma will be able to see through the "Shake of Soul", and I can use magic to see through the mental state of the opponent. But it's not the first way to build trust. Believe me, when he talks to me, he opens his closed eyes and General Shade sees me.

"... Lord Duke. I have received a message from General Ginada."

"What's the legend...?

"If something happens to me, I go to some Spiritual Spiritual Companies in Latticism and use this magic tool....."

What General Shade took out was jeweled outfitting enough to ride in the palm of his hand.

"This is...."

I stood up and received the magic equipment from General Shade and showed it to my master. When Master takes it in his hand, he nods while looking at me.

"A magic tool to use as a reminder... it was also found in Ratochris. You found it in Ruins?

"Probably. General Ginada and General Glasgow were working together to investigate ruins in the country and use what was gained there in the national interest… This magic tool was usually used to keep in touch with each other when we were on missions in remote locations. But now I can't find her with magic tools."

The Talking Pierce I created to keep in touch with my Alliance members was within reach of the entire King's Landing, unless it was magically disrupted.

This tool is' natural '- that is, excavated from the ruins - and performs better than my recycled product. If General Ginada had the same thing, it would have been quite a long way to go, but he hasn't lost his function, but he hasn't responded.

"... does she already have magic equipment..."

"I don't think so. She said," Spiritual pulse "... take magic equipment there, didn't she?

Miralka gets in the way before General Shade says anything pessimistic. She didn't hesitate to say anything, so she relied on it.

"It's hard to be optimistic, but from what General Ginada said, if you use the 'Spiritual Pulse' to get in touch with her even if you're disturbed... I think so."

"... Dewey, are you aware of this? There's a Spiritual Spirituality in this country."

Yes, I know - the spiritual veins that also existed in the labyrinth of the ruins of Berthalis and were connected to the depths of the labyrinth. Using it, we were able to move all at once to the bottom and reach the snake.

In the Kingdom of Ratochris, the spiritual power is exposed on the surface of the land, and it is called the "Spiritual Spirit Company" - if it can be used to transfer to the vicinity of General Ginada's location.

However, in the labyrinth, "spiritual vein transfer" could not be utilized without the help of the "fairy" who governed the spiritual veins of the labyrinth. I didn't go the same way this time, but I thought so.

"Dad, take me to that Spiritual Spiritual Company. I'm sure it'll help."

"Mm... yeah, that's the way... but isn't that a big danger?

Verlaine immediately thought of Sphere's intentions.

Spirits that are artificial spirits can enter and metastasize - we need the help of fairies to metastasize, but spirits that can dematerialize and transform their bodies into spirits need not.

"If I can do what I think, I can go with my father. Hey, Dad."

"... that's right. If you can" Spiritual Transfer, "you can also poke at the enemy's intentions."

"Lord Duke... when he uses his' Spiritual Transformation 'method to rescue General Ginada...?

General Shade looks incredible - he probably thought the rescue was hopeless.

There is still the question of whether General Ginada's whereabouts can be grasped through the spiritual veins. But once that is cleared, her rescue will never be impossible and will be realistic.

"Dewey, the spiritual pulse stabilizes when the moon comes full, so I think we should take action after the moon rises a little bit more. The spiritual pulse in the labyrinth wasn't affected by age, but it was artificial."

"Ah, okay... General Shade, you look like you regret what you said, but you can leave it to us. I'm not letting my daughter go alone, because I'm with her."

"But... to put you in such danger, we just have to wait..."

"The knight's job is not just to cut into enemy lines. You have a role to play... so let him handle it now."

Cody won't be named, but persuade General Shade to be the same knight.

"... I see. You have done what we could not easily do. I can't thank you enough for giving me a role."

"Thank you for saying that. My people will move on, but I will leave some men to defend this castle. If the enemy is trying to cross the river, we should take countermeasures."

"Master, there is no problem with that. If there's a river, it's not hard to stop the enemy from invading."

Summon "Shaker" and show off his gigantic body, the enemy will lose their warfare. There are many ways for us to take enemy warfare without engaging.

"Well then... we will continue to monitor at night without alarm. Thank you very much, Verlaine and all of you for your help."

General Shade salutes and leaves. He didn't take the magic equipment - he entrusted us with the rescue of General Ginada.

"Phew... Dee, you're getting a little fever. Would you like some dinner?

"Ahahah... Mr. Rimse, because I said 'Dewey', I was worried and I couldn't get into my head."

"We respect you because you don't want to stand out... Yuma, I wonder if you have a mask on you."

Miralka takes off her mask and lets Yuma take a look at it - I take off my mask too, but I am worried that there is surely more where it touches my skin.

"Master doesn't have anything on him... mmh. I've been talking a lot, but my eyes are sparkling... and I think they're reflecting on the stars."

"Nh... no, don't sneak up on me all of a sudden. My eyes are shy."

"Father, you're definitely looking to help everybody. I found the clue, so it's sparkling. I'll do my best to make your father happier."

Every time Sphere opens her mouth, she starts to impress her mothers - everything she says is too healthy.

"... who the hell do you look like? I think it's purity that we don't have."

"I thought it might be Yuma, but I wonder if it's actually Sherry. It's the most common kind of us, Dee."

"Ah, I don't think I should say that much in her absence....."

"It's okay, I understand. Now under the distant sky, Mr Shelley is always wondering about us. Let's all pray for her gratitude."

The first one is shining, or in a sense pure is still Yuma. While wondering what I was doing, I sent all my thoughts to Shelley, who was protecting me in King's Landing, to tell her that I was safe.

◆ ◇ ◆

The food stockpiled in the castle was preserved cereals and dried meat, but the specialty ingredients brought by the people of Loire to thank them made it a tasteless meal.

Soldiers were well stocked, so they were given fresh fruits and vegetables to boost their morale. The surrendered National Army soldiers were also cash, and the expression became brighter when they found out that they were being distributed food without discrimination.

We all had dinner, and the soldiers offered to clean it up, but they refused. For some reason, pottery was used in the dishes used in the castle, and I was interested in the quality.

"Dick is really sweet. The soldiers who attacked the village of Loire are holding them captive, but other soldiers must have been with the National Army."

And for some reason, Miralka is helping me. When I decided on the order of bathing, it seemed like it was because I was late, but I couldn't help feeling restless.

I can't say anything because Miralka, who is doing housework, is too fresh to be looked at. I thought she'd never wipe dishes.

The storm water stored in the barrel is pumped into the tarai, the dishes are washed with it, and Miralka wipes it away. Collaboration is going well - I didn't expect it to be so breathtaking.

"... are you listening?

"Ah, ahh... no, I've been thinking about it for a while. Dietary discrimination buys a lot of disgust. I'll have a soldier in the National Army work for me, and I'll be in trouble if I get away. I wanted to make it clear that I would not discriminate against them as" surrendees. "

"Yes... I think it would be fine if I urged reflection for a while. That's a hard decision for me to make....."

"The plates are pretty heavy, so be careful. Can you hold it?"

"Who do you think I am? No matter how many wizards I say..."

--A pottery plate for eight people to share. It still seemed heavy on Miralka, and she broke her balance. I instantly grabbed the platter with one hand, pulled the arm back, and then caught Miralka falling down with the other arm.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, it was heavy after all"

"Yeah, yeah, a little bit more than I expected...."

It's a little impossible, but using Strength Strengthen (Strength Slide) doesn't mean that much.

I don't know what to say, but there was a huge mass on the right arm that I took by turning it around Miralka's torso.

"Nh... uhh, cut off your arm sensation! You can do it magically!

"I see... I can't do that..."

"Hmm... then I'll destroy your memory... no, that's fine. You saved me, so forgive me as a force majeure....."

"Ah, um... it's about time? Both of you."

"Gyah...!?

Irene and Cody blushed their faces as they watched the rare screams of Miralka - not surprisingly, the washroom.

"Well, you know, the plates were heavy. I'm going to be able to analyze that, too....."

"Yes... don't get me wrong, it was an accident, it didn't have any other implications."

"In that case, Dick's face is so red that it's rarely seen... heh, hmm"

"No, what, I'm normal. Miralka is right, and this is just me who won't fall, or I'm just aggressively supporting....."

Eileen looked happy, but unexpectedly turned into a naughty look. And when he approached me, he whispered a word.

"... it's redder than when you saw me.

"Eh... is that... right...?

"Nfufu. Which one? I don't remember exactly, but I was nervous."

What Eileen is saying is that she visited her house. I have seen her strangely, and there is no excuse for that.

"Aileen, don't bother Dick too much. Dick, I'm sorry, I just wanted to get you some water to take a bath. I left the dishes to you, Miralka."

"That's fine... don't get me wrong. Is this the right person to support me... no, that's something different..."

(Deok-kun, are you coming with me after all?

While doing so, the master sends a reminder from the bath. It is harmful to know what kind of dress the other person is wearing when talking to you in these times, but there is no way you can focus on it.

"Ju, just follow the sequence! I mean, just wiping my body is enough...."

(Hmm, I'm sorry... but I have to keep the order I've decided. I was worried that your husband would protect Sphere properly.)

(See, it's so spacious that we should all go in. Dee-kun, don't worry about being naked in the old days... ah, pretend not to listen right away)

A master who brings out water every time he takes a bath as a child, but unfortunately consciously shuts out his thoughtful stories.

Sphere is going with Yuma to see how Mermaire is resting in the officer's room, but I decided to take a bath with each of them and set the order, so I went in with Sphere.

He said he wanted to wash my back, but is that okay? I'm still young, but I think it's time for emotions to grow.

"If you're reluctant to go in with Sphere, I can come in... but then my daughter will hate you and I won't like it."

Yeah, yeah, Sphere, you miss Dick so much.

"That's why... even if I say this, it irritates me. Say hello to Sphere," Dad. "

Cody joked and drank water and left with Aileen. Although nobody else has seen her in the bath, it's a complicated feeling to be able to see her without a leaflet.

"... I've always helped you a little where you can handle it. Give me something till the turn comes."

Miralka, the only one left, says that. For a moment I wondered what to do, but this is the time to show the spirit of hospitality.

"Drinking alcohol before you go into the bath is all you have to do. How about a bottle of blend with a modest amount of alcohol so you don't get too drunk? Miss."

"... I feel better when you tell me to be a professor than a girl."

Miralka with a different face. I'm glad I could talk to her slowly before I dive into hostiles with Sphere - honestly.

We move from the washroom to the cafeteria for officers. From the window outside the castle you can see the moon that started climbing - I was thinking of a blend inspired by the moon (Sphere) from which her name came when Sphere was born.

A juice made with a herb called "Nightingale" that can be used as an oral medicine to improve your health. To a waking blue one, add liqueur of the same ingredient and a small amount of mint oil, and finally remove the cotton from the fruit called "Clearlot Fruit" and add a rich cream.

Unlike dairy products, this cream, made from vegetable ingredients, is oily and refreshing. Pour a blend of blue juice into a glass and float white cream on it to complete a drink that mimics the moon floating on the surface.

"... beautiful. Did you think of this for Sphere?

"It's obvious. You can make it without adding alcohol, and this is how you add liqueur when serving it to adults. This time, I only put it in to make it flavorful so I wouldn't get drunk."

"You really feel so delicate about that..."

"Well, it's a simple blend, so I wonder if it suits my mouth...."

Instead of answering, Miralka puts her mouth on the glass.

Her assessment - and I don't have to put it in words - is clear. She smiled and pointed next to the glass on the table to encourage me to drink too.
