Hyaku Ma No Aruji

"Any information on the Seven Imperials?

"To be honest, it's difficult to navigate. I knew there was too little literature. As Elma said, I think the Seven Emperors after the Dark War deliberately tried to erase the information."

It was about that that that Merea asked exactly.

The answer is Lilium, the squad leader of Knowledge (Razras).

She flushed her red hair wide back and hung her forehead in her ear, moving into a complete work posture that she didn't even care about her physique, before answering Merea's question.

"Oh well. - Anything on Elma that reminds you of?

"No, I'm sorry, but I also have very little specific information other than my own clan. Even if my grandfathers could just dig back the information on the Sword Emperor family, privately, I think they should do well. The story of the other Emperor's house..."

"... I see. But you're not supposed to have any clues at all."

"Why can you say all that?

Elma immediately asked back to the words that Merea had spinned with her hands on her chin.

When Merea realizes the voice, she spins the words in a clear tone with her index finger up, turning her face toward Elma.

"Because Celias took the Spear Emperor's spear."

- Is that what you mean?

Elma circled her eyes and nodded as small as she had noticed something.

"If the Moosegs were actually the Spear Emperor, or something, Celias would have gotten information about the Seven Emperors from somewhere when he took it. Even if he is not largely certified as the current Spear Emperor or Demon King, he discovered from somewhere the descendants who inherited the Spear Kurtard, its existence. - Well, even if that descendant is not certified as the Demon King, it would be like automatically certifying as the Demon King the moment he has the Demon Spear."

Melea says bitterly with her hands wide open.

"Right. If so, there is no other information about the Seven Emperors at all."

"Knowledge is good for mental health."

Add to Elma's words as Lilium exhales with her nose.

"I'm not talking about getting tired of chasing something that you don't think exists on its own. Barren, barren. One of the three great hardships of hired scholars. There weren't many people like that at the Blue Rose School in Aeos, but there were quite a few at the Red Rose School."

"By the way, what about the other two of those hired scholars' three major labors?

"I'll talk to you when I get a chance."

Lillium had confirmed that the light of Merea's curiosity lit her eyes.

In the meantime, I managed to cut the conversation once I was in the mood for the owner to keep the bait, thinking that the meeting could be off the sidelines if I kept talking about it.

Melea was also Melea, and she seemed to be putting her thoughts around it properly, crushing herself to admonish "how about" shortly afterwards.

"Uh, whatever, no harvest," he said.... Um, maybe Celias won't imitate the true use of the Seven Imperials, either, but I'm a little worried. "

The demon spear Kurtard that Celias had seized with a gap when Merea made contact.

Perhaps on that occasion, and if Celias hadn't been cautious about Melea, it would have taken more effort to seize it, Melea thinks.

That was a once-in-a-lifetime, inviting alarm because we first met by cutting the front.

It is significant that in that one time we obtained a great harvest called the Demon Spear Kurtard.

- Assuming he gets another Seven Imperials and shows up in front of him again... that's a hassle.

The experience of crossing swords once, not just the Seven Imperial Instruments, forms the basis for allowing Celias to work out various measures.

――……

Merea never insulted Celias' talent for the battle.

- Well, as long as it's a personal battle... but it's hard for the Seven Imperials to cross into a large individual called the Mooseg Army.

Serious would make about a regiment of soldiers specializing in waving the Seven Emperors.

Just one shot.

If you wield it many rounds, it is a stone of war and other fine wood dust.

Melea saw behind her brain the phantom that the battlefield was turning into scorched earth.

And Celias, he'll probably be seeing the same sight.

Therefore, Celias was naturally supposed to be able to get around the idea that 'if they've used it too'.

More importantly, Celias "received" the first blow of the Seven Imperial Instruments in this era.

You should have been struck by the same or more shocks that you actually wielded to realize the threat.

- You wouldn't want me to use it.

Naturally, I want to monopolize it as the side to use it.

You should probably want to avoid situations where both parties use it.

If it's that meeting, a decent tactic will be kept outside the mosquito net.

Become a war like a beating.

You'll want to avoid losing the musegs you've grown up to this point because of the beating.

Given all that, a prediction still arises that Celias will still conceal the power of the Seven Emperors.

At least until the Seven Imperials return in their own hands, we hide them.

Melea still doesn't know where she intends to release that information.

"Looks like he's got an unmistakable bomb."

"Totally."

Melea finally spilled her pompous words.

Then Elma answered his voice with a nod, and the other demon kings were reacting as well.

Perhaps he was working the same imagination between now and now.

"- Well, Harsim also actively cooperates on that point. For the containment of information in times of need, Serious and Harsim would give the country and move. We just have to get on that wave first. However, if you have any information, that would also be negotiating material, so let's keep looking. - I don't even know if it's in the face of knowledge. I'm sorry to make you look for information, but please."

Merea said with a bitter smile.

The faces of Knowledge, which sat solidified in the back left side of the supper room, shrugged their shoulders with the same grin on such a melea.

- I'll take care of it.

At the end of the day, he was forcefully returning his words.

"Yeah, I'll take care of it. I don't think it's going to help."

Embarrassing herself, Merea expressed her trust in them in verbal terms.

◆ ◆ ◆

"So shall we move on? - Shaw, what can I get you?

"Oh, it's me"

The next time Merea's voice flew away was Shaw, who was in the center right of the supper room.

It is next to Salman's two flying right.

In the meantime it was the twins - Lyna and Mina.

"Speak quickly, deceased." "Bye."

"Something's on the second half, it's another object. I'm not messing with anything!

Shaw deliberately danced his golden, saggy hair and showed it to the twins who were next door.

"Whoa, what I did is mucky.... hon. - So, uh, yeah, you know, the deal is that you haven't gotten any information at all."

"You'll help me make up for my lack of words perfectly."

Melea laughs.

And added further.

"As things stand, the outermost would be the face of the Wallet (Listal). Sometimes we focus on trading, but it's the Shaw's who specialize in outside information compared to the" knowledge "that we often do inside and out."

"You're welcome."

"Can I help you?

"Hmm. - Oh, speaking of which,"

Shaw dropped his right cobweb over his left hand and said this flashed deliberately again.

"We talked about a possible resumption of trade with the West, but when we were exchanging information around it with the merchants from other chambers of commerce, we heard some interesting stories."

"Huh?"

The light swayed loosely in Merea's red eyes.

"Do you know Virgilia, the city of art?

"City of art?

"Yeah, that's right."

Says Shaw after correcting his collar and giving him a slightly more serious look.

The expression is serious, but there was still a tremendous trick in gesturing.

"It's a city that amasses art. To music, theatre, painting, literature, antiques, combined opera, to the somewhat suspicious' something new 'whether art or not. Well, it's a city where different kinds of art can't be represented in a bite. For once, as an urban state, it's a state, but you're not as independent as you are. The playground of the dojos, do you feel?"

"Heh. Where is it?

"To the northeast of the eastern continent. By the sea."

"Hmm."

Merea spread the world map into her head, which had recently been punched in by Marisa.

but the shape of the other continents did not float well, so for one thing, only the map of the eastern continent is enlarged and expanded to stare at the general position of the art city of Virgilia.

"Apparently, at the same time as the resumption of trade, the nobles and leading figures of the surrounding countries have also regained some vigour, with more people expected to head to Virginia this year than usual"

"Hmm."

"So, here's the real deal"

Shaw smiled refreshingly, putting his index finger up in front of his mouth to show.

"It seems that Virgilia has an egg of actors that could be everyone's 'star' in the coming road season."

"Actor."

"Yeah. It sounds like an egg of an opera actor, to be exact."

"Is that what this has to do with us?

"It's speculation, right? But in what I heard, 'she' is-"

Shaw took an exquisite time, then said it out loud.

"The Queen of Enchantment, they call her."

Such a lewd description for them was familiar in many ways.

In the light of the system of the Hero and Demon King, to which a relatively short prefix can be attached, there were some thoughts that it was slightly longer, nevertheless -

"- Not at all, it's a word that sounds weird. Maybe it's because of your position."

The words Merea said laughingly to herself accurately represented the hearts and minds of the demon kings today.
