Hyaku Ma No Aruji

Clouds are flowing through the pale sky just a little faster than usual.

- It's tidal time.

A room in the royal castle of Lemuse.

"Harsim" looked up at the cloud from the window and snapped.

The situation on the western continent?

Inside the room, as usual, is Hershem's maid (Aisha).

Hands in front of each other, aligned exactly to the tip of your finger, is exactly what you deserve to call neat.

"Well, so are you."

Harsim dropped his gaze only once, then slowly turned towards Aisha.

One way or the other, it's better to the south.

It's a Sisalis country.

In anticipation of Harsim trying to sit at the desk, Aisha pulls the chair without sound.

Harsim answered it with one hand and sat more and more in the chair.

"Mooseg's hand is as fast as he thinks. I heard about the Pirate City from Mulan the other day. Apparently, yesterday, a large number of ships departed simultaneously to go to the Great War."

"Is it the eastern end of Sisalis on the way?"

"I guess."

The Sisalis nation is located on the northeastern edge of the southern continent, facing the sea.

At the time Mooseg held the "pirate city" between the eastern and northern continents in his hands, he expected that they would bypass the sea and attack the southern continents.

"That's honest for a moozeg, though"

Huh, Aisha says.

"Right. It's an honest strategy indeed. He said he was waging a glittering economic war against the Western powers."

On the western continent, pedestrians from the northern continent, rich in mineral resources, seem to be a lot more here.

Probably targeted the outflow of foreign currency in the western continent - in addition to the rise in the economic power of Mooseg - with Mooseg in the hands of several countries in the northern continent and the focused export of mineral resources there to the western continent.

"Perhaps Merea and the others on their way to Aios are grasping it."

Or you'll be biting your teeth knowing that, Harsim said with a small, bitter smile.

"Orders to put the overwhelming violence in the background are immense. Countries in the North who export mineral resources would also want to add their sales money to their own, but Mooseg won't allow it"

"You don't have a choice when you lose the war."

"Depends on where you lost."

If there's too much difference in power, there's no room for negotiation.

"Whatever this is, it's the only way Museg can take it. Neither can I nor the League of Demon Kings."

So I'm sure, Merea bites her teeth.

"Maybe you're throwing a response around to Master Harsim"

Aisha said funny.

Harsim laughed plainly and bitterly this time when he heard the words.

"I guess. Well, that's my relationship with them."

unanimity of interest. reciprocal alliance relationships.

Regardless, we don't lean on each other, but there is something about the right way to do it for each of us.

"It's our job to restrain and respond to moozegs on a national basis."

Instead, they asked the Demon Kings to help them work in smaller phases.

"That's what I could say if the Zainas battle was a small phase, but special, in physical warfare, we have to rely on their power even in large phases. This is the reality now."

The Union of Demon Kings is also gradually becoming larger than it was at the time we met.

Of course, the numbers are small compared to the armies of the great nations, but if the constituents become (Demon Kings) with a thousand peculiar powers, they cannot easily judge by only the differences in numbers.

"The Secrets of the Demon Kings are enhanced by multiplication, not addition, by combination."

"I am personally concerned about the combination of the Yang Dynasty with the Light Demon Circuit and the Seven Imperial Instruments."

"... Aisha, don't you think too hard"

"… to protect the nation"

To Harsim's point, Aisha coughs and then lays her eyes down.

"Well, that kind of thinking isn't something I threw away in itself"

Nor did Harsim pursue any further, and for the first time, he passed on the story.

"So, Master Harsim. As much as" tidal time "is -"

"Oh."

Aisha prompted Harsim to correct his collar again.

In the meantime I received a glass cup offered by Aisha and included a little vanilla water that was poured inside in my mouth.

"I can't wait for Merea and the others to return. If an army of Moosegs departs from the pirate city, we must move our soldiers and we will go around behind them."

Harsim continues with a thoughtful look as he taps the end of the concierge with his fingers and tongues.

"I've already sent a request for a march to Philalphia."

"To His Majesty the Fassalis?"

"Yes."

Fasalis, king of the kingdom of Philalphia with a giant like a bear.

He is a classmate of Harsim's Aeoth period and commands an army that combines speed and weight: the 'Iron and Steel Cavalry Regiment'.

Originally, the steel industry thrived, so to speak, in the Kingdom of Philalphia.

"Depending on the opponent's power, an invasion from the sea would not be so easily tolerated if it were the Iron and Steel Cavalry. Since forming the alliance, Philalphia has been particularly committed to the development of soldiers."

"How is the kingdom of Zuria with the Blue Spear Regiment?

"That's the trump card for the attack. Not suitable for defensive warfare. Kirishika, the queen, knows that, so her defense as the Three Kingdoms seems to have thrown a round at Fassaris."

It is first and foremost an unlikely choice on an independent national basis.

That was a division of roles made because it was a trinity with a slightly snobbish knot for a pair of musegs called the "Three Kingdoms".

"Master Mulan..."

"His place is' The Machine of Surgery 'and' Scouts'. Using the location of closest to Mooseg, he explores the trend of Mooseg momentum. Besides, the machine industry in the Kingdom of Kushana can only be used here. The" Machine Cannon "he made me make by naming the country takes time and effort like a fool to carry. Looks like he's already got a machine-guided cannon in anticipation of the war near Sisalis, but still doesn't know if he'll make it."

In the first place, Harsim continued.

"At best, we must prepare ourselves (...) for an attack from Mooseg against (...) the country (...). So I'm really gonna be behind it."

"Was it because of reports that Master Fassaris'" Iron and Steel Cavalry "was also able to move because the fleet departed from the pirate city?"

"That's right. But this is also a bet. If it's a disguise, if it sends some of its forces to Sisalis, and if Mooseg leaves behind a force capable of attacking us, the march of the Iron and Steel Cavalry will also be fatally wounded"

Originally a bad bet.

Rather, he may not even have taken any tactics other than betting.

The more disturbing the status quo, the heavier the sigh could only come out of Harsim's mouth.

"But we have to do it"

A mistake in one hand can be fatal.

The situation in such a country.

It would have perished sooner without Merea and the others.

"Would the inscription left by Leilas-Riff-Remusee have also been rewritten now?"

Fu and Harsim give thought to a certain stone tablet left in the royal castle of Lemuse.

It is said to have been left behind by the "White Emperor" Leilas-Riff-Remusee.

"According to that inscription, I'm about to die."

There was a future carved out there that I didn't want to believe.

◆ ◆ ◆

In those days, there was a figure of one woman all over the city of Lemuse in the White Country.

White hair that is superior in length to the hips.

Sleek limbs and somewhere powerful walking across them.

With a clean beauty that could be described as both a girl and a beautiful woman, the woman saw the people of Lemuse walking around and snapped like this.

"... you have hope"

The woman smiles slightly happily at her rare beauty.

"It's smaller than it used to be. But he's still alive."

The woman walks out again.

"Nevertheless, to send me here, I am a bad taster."

The beauty of the woman is obviously floating from around.

The costume I'm wearing is like a travel bundle and plain, but it was a beauty that even felt divine based on it.

But no one sends a glance at that figure.

As if no one saw that, the woman goes down the street.

And after a short walk, the woman stopped in front of a building.

"-" Star Tree Castle. "

It is a castle inhabited by demon kings of the Union of Demon Kings.

If you look in the back, there is a great star tree that emits beautiful blue and green light, and further back you can see the royal castle of Lemuse.

"Here again, raw (...) kicked (...)"

Now nod as satisfied.

"You have to tell Flander."

Keep your hands on your hips and keep your chest up.

Then, just as the woman lowered her gaze from Startree Castle, one boy appeared all the way from the shadow at its feet.

"Well, it's time for me to go."

"- Right."

It's a convenient technique, though.

The boy who emerged from the shadows was wearing a robe.

Dark hair with deep blue eyes. That's the only shade that makes me feel heavily bitter, but by the way, my hair is blurry and bouncing out, so I didn't feel intimidated by the wonder and the boy.

"Right, fool. Are you coming too?"

"Hey, stop calling me stupid naturally."

The boy answers the woman's words plainly by teasing her.

"They all say they're stupid about me, but from me, they all want it."

"You're about the fool who tried to be a dragon with roughly all his admiration, right?

"No, well, that's true... but when it comes to adding and subtracting silliness, isn't Tyrant quite as well?

"That only turns my head when I fight"

"... oh, I don't know"

The boy scratches my head and sighs.

"Well no. Anyway, I'm heading to Lindholm Spiritual Mountain, so if anything happens, do something good. Because you're the only one who can hold between the English spirits. I can't talk to Frank about people who were just too old to be alive... or Earth God."

"It's a cover. I'm a rough girl, so it's just easier for me to give up on them and talk about them."

"That's what they call talent."

"Hmm, I don't feel bad when [Dragon God] says something about talent!

"That's more than anything."

Half sarcastic, but the boy laughed just a little.

"Nevertheless, I wonder why we are allowed such freedom. I'm also surprised that this ritual remains in this day and age, but after all, it's the magicians who have the least idea."

"There is no such thing as rational thoughts in the array. I suppose Alle preferred chaos and thought it would be more chaotic to leave us somewhat free. It doesn't mean I don't think about it at all, though."

"What do you mean?

"Enough shackles are placed on dangerous molecules that are likely to converge the chaos you are looking forward to. Proof of this is having Flander on hand with the strongest shackles."

……

Two, the boy figured out that the woman held her fist.

Soon the woman hid that hand behind her back, but the boy didn't miss it.

"- Yeah, you are. Well, I'm going to talk to you so that you (...) can look a little further."

"Oh.... I asked"

That's when the woman took away all the blatant brightness and a little sarcasm until then and looked at the boy, honestly and straight.

"It is the Dragon's true purpose that is asked, to be wished for. Long ago they were in this world as gods"

Then the boy rolls up the sleeve of the bumpy robe and puts out his arm.

There was a tremendous amount of procedure engraved there. Perhaps it is engraved on everything in the body beyond the arm. It was enough to make you easily anticipate that.

"Well, say hello to Flander. And also in" The Shadow God (Johann), "who has successfully hidden my trends."

"I'll tell him"

"I think I'll be tied hard if he reads my intention to move. You won't even be able to have a satisfactory conversation when that happens. Honestly, I wanted to see what happened to Melea now, but I'm going to leave that to the other English spirits."

The boy had a 'parent's face', not a boy, then.

"- How are they? It's been a while since I've seen them."

Immediately after.

The boy's body is wrapped in light.

The light floats in the universe, and...

"See you later, White Emperor."

"Oh, in heaven again,"

"Tenryu" appeared in the Lemuse sky with a deep blue scale.

But the figure of a dragon that emits its overwhelming presence is also not visible to the people of Lemuse walking down the street.

The only woman with white hair was looking up at the sky.

Eventually its flock of blue dragons struck the sky with enough large wings to be called the Tenryu and flew towards the other side.

Beyond the blue sky.

I felt the silhouette, very similar to its flock of blue dragons, shone through the slices of clouds that flowed just a little faster than usual.
