'It's like escorting a vicious beast,' he thought when he saw what was going on around him.

Exactly, the three of us will not be pushed into the same demonic car as Dahlia or Shun, and we will be surrounded by a large number of soldiers.

After all, there must have been earlier battles. But more than that - the degree of hostility and vigilance that could be directed at Lue seemed stronger.

Soldiers like saying, 'Another gray hair has brought disaster to this country'.

But, well, I can't say that I'm a “ “ % mistake ” more than I'm here for Lue this time.

"... sorry, Lue"

"You don't have to apologize anymore. All right, I guess that was it, Dahlia and you."

"This is the only way, maybe then."

"... maybe so."

Just a little bit, she was angry. Keep your mouth shut that I intend to fight Shun from the beginning.

I guess he understands with his head that it was necessary. But human beings are not clever enough to completely absorb their emotions.

Above all, it is an indisputable fact that I was deceiving her myself.

"... Kai. Why did you ask us to block our eyes?"

"It's..."

"Didn't you believe us? You think Mr. Kai's horrible, you think?

"... that's not true. It's just - me too, because I'm human. I don't want people to see my dirty parts."

Reis also had a slightly sad look on his face.

For not being able to show you everything about me, including that helpless part.

But I'm also a child. I wish I didn't want my shame to look like a person who loves dirty parts, because I can't help it.

Even Lace understands that. But she's human again.

So convincing, it's not sweet, which is why I'm just giving you a little, a little bully look to blame for this one.

"... this is half an eight-half hit. Don't look like that."

"Eight hits?

"Yes. And Lue, right?

Then she turned a grin to forgive Lue, who still had a slightly unfaithful look on her face.

"We can't show it, but we can show it to Mr. Dahlia. And entrusted the wish. I'm only cooking a little yakimochi for that. Isn't that right, Lue?"

"... well"

The butt squeaks badly, and she turns to look cute.

Yeah, that's the answer, I understand.

I can't wait to love it.

Long time no see, stretch this arm. I waved my sword many times, and I did this horrible, nasty deed.

So Riko Nana Riko. Thanks for accepting.

Thanks for doing the yakimochi.

Her ears, which she had silently accepted, felt just a little red.

It was a trip down the river, but apparently it was quite a distance by road.

He hasn't reached the Brightness Arch yet, despite being rocked by this magic car for an hour or so.

For a moment, you broke up with Dahlia and the others, and you were alert to what was going on out there, but you were also quite nervous about the appearance of the two demonic cars running in front of you, and you laughed bitterly at yourself for worrying like that without even having a pattern.

and then the air in the demon car changes. It reassures me that the calamari and dry, pleasant cool temperatures have finally brought me within the boundaries.

"I've never seen an air-conditioning ceremony like this all over the city, and so have I."

"That's true. Staying here for a long time is going to drive the feeling of the season crazy"

means two valves.

Surely if you get used to this overly privileged environment, you might feel like a hundred million people going elsewhere.

When I noticed, the light I gave from outside the window was stained with Zhu.

... Sooner rather than later, time passes today.

I still have things to think back and think about.

But now, I'm back in the city safely. And now that we are finally going to face the royal family, we breathe a sigh of relief to heighten the loosened tension again, and wait just quietly for that moment.

Royal Castle Zone.

Strict junctions and physical walls, this compartment reached through a checkpoint where many people are said not to pass without permission.

There were few people walking down the street, and instead, the trees and plants appeared overwhelming, and this place was no longer the only one that seemed to be firmer to describe as' the city was drunk by the woods'.

The full air also seems to contain some refreshing fragrance, which is likely to keep me breathing deeply.

That, of course, was no exception to Lühe, who had lived in the woods for a long time, taking a deep breath in comfort, slightly soothing its expression.

Eventually, the back length of the trees became such a height that it could not be ascertained from the windows, and the surrounding buildings became big and tough things to compete with.

Finally, he spits that it's a royal castle and puts his strength into his expression.

Eventually, the speed of the demon car slowed down.

"Get off."

Follow the voice thrown without a nibble and get off the demon car.

What then spreads in front of him was a mysterious, somewhere temple-meshed, large royal gate, as if it had reproduced a tree arch with stone.

Already, Dalia and Shun stand as if waiting for this one to come and point their indescribable gaze.

"... that's a big deal. Bigger than any castle I've ever seen."

"Oh, I guess so. It's a country that's been here a long time, not even in the secondary."

"... and you have stripped fangs to such a country. I don't give a shit, but I don't help."

This is just a little bit of a return of interest to Shun's story, which still includes something else - make that look complete.

No matter how much you damage it, this is God's slavery gear. Storage and manifestation make you look the way you are.

"Sounds like you're mistaken... but if I ramble on this scene right now, this castle in an instant, including you... disappear?

"... but you don't do it. I envy you. On the other hand, it seems pitiful."

"Say it. Don't spoil my mood too much, sama the samurai swordsman."

"Shit."

There must be no more existence that prevents Lue from wishing than these two people from turning to their enemies.

But why? What makes me feel unspeakable, like a seed of anxiety and worry is still rooted somewhere in my mind.

And as they were led by the two, they stepped into this strange royal castle, somewhere in harmony with nature, rather as if only a few hands of man had been added naturally.

There are no luxurious condiments or vibrant carpet-like objects, but a tapestry of a pair braided in landscape paintings and geometries just quietly entertains the visitor's eyes.

Moving on through a castle that calms my heart somewhere like that, I stop in front of one of its decorated tapestries to see if Fujirue even found something to worry about.

"Are you worried about the decorations?

On the cloth, something somewhat like a thin wax is braided in 3D, representing a circular shape that somewhere resembles a dream catcher.

She stared back at it, looking haphazardly.

"Oh, no... it's similar to the crest ceremony I used to devise"

"Hmm? Did Lue devise that?

Then Daria, who was moving on, turns back and looks up at that tapestry next to Rhue.

"This is one of the crests that has long been passed down to this country. I'm arranging a few things to decorate the castle. Surely the crest itself has a meaning..."

"Yes, the meaning of this crest is' Rest in the Land '. I used to make it for everyone living in the woods."

"... right. Thanks, I'm letting you use it. Thanks to this guy, mental fatigue is somewhat relieved."

"hehe, that's good"

... Are you breathing? Her thoughts are still there.

But at the same time, I wanted to get angry at her for lowering her face and using her powers.

But when I saw her face smiling happily, I couldn't say anything.

"Well, it's almost time for a look. Already, all the royal humans must have gathered. I'll go in first and explain the situation. I'll give you a signal. Come on in."

Then we reached up the spiral slope as if we had made some giant trees, on the floor close to the top floor of the royal castle, Dahlia said.

At the end of the aisle there is an odd door, as if the roots of the trees could have been intricately intertwined.

Its doors, with clear blue peeking through the roots gap, as if they had taken in blisters, seem to still live with trees, and feel more organic than artificial.

No, I get the impression that this castle itself still lives as part of nature in the first place.

As Dahlia and Shun move on and put their hands on the door, the bubbles that had been peeking into view bubble and go over to the roots gap.

And the roots that made up the doors as if they were really alive loosened and slowly opened.

"It's a strange place, this is really..."

"Maybe the castle itself is alive. Probably as intense in magic as being in the woods. I feel a little physically powered."

Move in front of the closed door once and apply "Five Senses Enhancement" to yourself asking if you can find out what's going on inside.

Then came a cool sound to this ear, as if fresh water were gushing out.

It seems to be heard from this entire castle and reinforces the certainty that this castle is still alive.

Among the sounds that resemble that spiral, you choose the sounds you need, and you explore them.

'Dear Dahlia, how was it? Not just me, but even my wife and daughter.'

'This is an important project for the future of the country, so I called you at our discretion. I thank you all very much. "

'Keep your head up, Master Dahlia. And what the hell is that case...?

'Actually... before that, I can't seem to see Fennel'

"If you are a predecessor, you have to prioritize something… and that's what this country does at the end of the line."

'... is that right? Then we go into the requirements. Actually, there's someone I want you to meet.'

Apparently, only the predecessor king, who would be familiar with Lue, was absent.

When I told her about it, I gave her a relieved, reassuring look as to why.

... Again, are you afraid? Face to face with Teng, who once betrayed himself.

and then a loud voice of confusion reaches this ear.

"Se, you're a semi-alle witch!? No way, no way... you think the descendants were alive?

'Don't be a wolf, king. It would be foolish to lose sight of what we have acquired, its essence, and to fear its very name.'

"But... what the hell did he go to this land for?"

... From here on out, maybe you shouldn't ask. My mental health.

I'm sure if I did something extra, if I said something I didn't have to say, it would be an obstacle to her wishes.

So now, let's wait quietly. Until then, when my friend will get the place ready.

There's no longer any sound in this ear that's disarmed.

From time to time, only the sound of the leaves that grow in this giant tree, looming in the breeze, reaches slightly.

Soon. Soon, Lue.

The people who will join the clan that once left you will soon be in front of us.

I wonder what you're thinking now. [M]

If there is a ferocious passion in that silence, I shall leave it to any number of you.

If, nevertheless, we are merciful and just wish to save you, let us respect that will.

I'm just a monster you can obey now. It moves at your will, because it is a legacy of the past.

Then from behind, the roots of the doors echo again.

And...

"Please come in"

Oh, I still feel beautiful.

The aesthetic feeling I have developed over the years is quite how I can jump over this emotion.

The moment I look in here, I see the people jumping into my eyes, and I regret it, but I think it's beautiful.

A man one step ahead of a grand age, supposedly a king.

The old woman leans against him and puts her own hand on that hand anxiously.

A young woman standing right on those two and a little boy and girl hugging her on the person's hips.

And finally, a woman who stands beside such anxious looking children, stands in a limp manner, and turns her gaze here.

Everyone, everyone, was an elf with bright blonde hair and "Bright" blood.

And the moment that all of them see Lue, they attract that look.

After all, is fear planted?

But there was only one person with a strong gaze at Lue without being frightened.

That 's-- oh, you did. Were you royal too? Were you already back in King's Capital, Sealis?

Second princess Sealis. That insatiable and ill-handed, that woman whose name is written at the beginning of my "I'll Never Let You Worship Morning Sun Again List".

Stop it, who are you staring at? Shall I make it taste like hell now?

"Well...... I'd like to introduce her. This is Lue Semiere himself, once known as the Semiere Witch who closed Elf's paradise to ice."

In the wind of nothing, Dahlia introduces using the nearest worst nomenclature for this country.

Even Sealis lagged behind in that introduction, and...

"I don't like it! I don't want to die! Holy Virgin, why not!

"Dear Dahlia... what the hell is this... no way is it going to get us..."

"Have you been distracted, Master Dahlia!

The screaming of the child and the mourning of the mother. And the anger of the king persists.

Still, Dahlia quietly distances herself from the royal family without uttering a word.

And - Lue took a step forward.

One step, and as the distance shrinks again, the cry of the child increases.

Mothers trying to cover up their children as if they were trying to hide their appearance.

Sealis shears with her chatter as she runs her hand to the sword.

A king who looks to have risen from the throne and yet endures a cold sweat.

Exactly, a weird laugh is about to creep up, as if a literal 'death' is coming before me right now.

Ha... Look, it's just a name and heirloom that exposes you to so much fright.

When these guys, these hipsters, are at the top of this country, is that it?

You think these guys betrayed her and tied her to that forest?

Such a... such a bunch of jerks who are going to end up with a single knife!

"... Mr. Kai, please calm down"

"Huh! Oh, I'm sorry, Reis"

I can flatter Reyce, who gently holds my right hand, with boiling emotions.

Yeah, I don't do anything. I just thought I'd keep an eye on this.

Lue stops walking over to them as this one watches.

If we take another few steps, we've come to a place we can reach, where everyone, blues their faces, and finally the kids cry out.

"... you've been introduced now. My name is Lue Semiere. The witch you are talking about."

No reply. I was just closing my eyes and shaking, as if waiting for a nightmare to wake up.

... Oh well. The current generation doesn't even know their sins anymore, they just have a one-sided fear of Lue. In the first place, it was pointless, impossible to quarrel or make him apologize.

Then... then what should I do with this thought of mine? I should have decided to just watch over this one. How can I reconcile this emotion?

"... are you afraid? Me."

Then he walked out toward the king, as Rhue spoke again.

In its hands lies a faint green light. Similar to such a leaky day, like reassuring what you see.

That's probably the magic I gave Sir Arklight and Amami.

We need to get rid of that fear first, even as we have a dialogue.

That's when I'm convinced, there's a voice that sounds like it made a fool of someone, breaking this tension and a space full of a kind of sacred air.

"Oh, what are you doing, Shun and Dahlia? Finally, a semi-alle witch came to take us to our country!

Everyone trembles at that voice heard from the shadow of the throne.

All royalty retreats from the spot, and the only king who remains seated on the throne opens his eyes, while saluting the young man who emerges from right behind him.

"Oh, I'm really here, I'm here. A symbol of fear, a rebellious witch. What disobeys cheer, treacherous semi-air!

That must have been instinct.

If I had noticed, I would have grabbed the sword, put so much effort into the man that he would have a headache, and had a strong, strong gaze on him.

This is the guy. I don't know what you're talking about, but he's the culprit.

The discomfort surrounding me now, the obstacles that exist on Lue's journey, the load of Dahlia, the hostility of Shun.

When all of them are resolved by the death of this one man, yes, a sixth sense flicker runs around the back of his brain.

As if… yes I can carry a sword, as prompted by someone.

Strangely, however, the moment I equipped myself with a sword, the anger as if I were to be guided spreads my thoughts.

... This isn't...

Immediately, replace the [Life Extreme Enhancement] that you were granting to yourself and the [Dragon God's Protection] that you were granting to the sword, and store the sword again.

... No abnormalities. If your thoughts are not disturbed, you are not likely to move impulsively.

This... I guess I can see this guy who just showed up doing something.

The man, still laughing strangely, takes another step toward Rhue.

"Long time no see, semi-alle witch. Dr. Leue."

"Oh, it's been a long time, Mr. Fennel"

Again, I know him. And by the name of the 'teacher', you strike me as the last man to betray the man who once begged Lue to teach, and to learn various art ceremonies.

... Ha, there's no need to induce crazy thoughts. If I'm to be forgiven, I just want to roll that neck, kick it, and spot it on the wall right now.

I just want to skewer that body and expose it to the fields and feed the birds.

Think of as much misery as you can imagine in your brain. But it's a promise. I'm not moving.

Just watch what she does.

Come on - this is where it stands, Lue.

I don't know how you get out of having more heavy and intense emotions than I do.

And what are you going to do with the strange ideas surrounding this country, the curse of thought?

Let me see, your choice. I'll affirm that choice in all spirits.

Come on, hit your wishes, your thoughts on this country, on this opponent.
