Is it the policy of persuading the brave and attracting them here?

Asked, the Mad Emperor stroked his lower lip like he was circling his thoughts.

It's been a while.

Actually, the other hand has already made several back-to-back contacts with a certain S-class hero.

…………

I was quite surprised at this.

I thought I would try to make contact somewhere.

But was it already successful?

“I particularly want to keep this story confidential.”

The tone of Mad Mei Emperor was the most serious flavor of today.

"I understand." However, I didn't think I had already been successful in contacting you..... "

You're finally going to reveal that as well?

The Mad Emperor said beside the spitting hawk.

"Since the beginning of the Great Demon Emperor Army's great invasion, it has become quite possible to release a maneuver into the kingdom of the Allion, Enoch." With the Great Demon Emperor in full swing, it seems that the goddess can no longer afford to look under her feet. "

I heard that the Great Demon Emperor was a natural enemy to the goddess.

Of course, natural enemies had a higher priority to focus on.

Even before Mira's rebellion, her consciousness would have been even worse.

... but you're a S-Class Hero.

"I know a S-Class Hero and a female Hero called Ayaka Sogou... is that the person I'm in contact with?"

No.

"..."

Either Kirihara or Kaohsiung's sister--

"His name is Higiri Takao."

Kaohsiung's sister.

"For now, I think I can handle it." I didn't seem to trust the goddess much, either. The answer from the other side became more colourful because they told me that there was a way to return to the original world without relying on the goddess. Talk to the same S-Class Hero, Ayaka Sogou - Higiri Takao has just contacted us through an interlocutor. The next report hasn't arrived yet, but.... "

You're trying to pull the Ten Rivers in.

... I might be able to do it.

If it's Kaohsiung.

Maybe it'll work.

"As far as the report goes, Higiri seems to be a smart person. She said that a class-A sister would also follow her sister. However... I still don't fully trust Higiri Takao. Unlike Asagi Iksaba, I haven't met him in person. We must avoid being danced by the goddess to embrace the S-class brave."

That's what I'm talking about… Your Majesty hasn't told Higiri Takao yet that you've brought Asagi Ixaba and the others to our side?

"It's not too early to tell us about the Asagi Iksabas." First of all, Yu wants to meet with Higiri Takao in person to identify the person. To see if I can really trust you. ”

... if persuasion succeeds.

Ayaka Tenkawa didn't stand up as an enemy.

If you're going to join us with the Kaohsiung sisters.

The barriers to the Goddess Crusade were reduced all at once.

It is a big deal that the existence of the Ten Rivers as a concern disappears.

but does that damn goddess overlook the betrayal of the S-Class brave so easily...? "

The hurdles seem high.

But if Saint Kaohsiung moves... "

The 2-C people may also settle down unexpectedly well.

In other words,

"If we can do something about the hero of the anxiety factor... only the goddess herself will remain in this battle"

"That's true, but I don't know much about that goddess." Because of that, if you want to take it down, you have to do it for sure. Failure is unacceptable. Therefore, I want to acquire the secret of curse forbidding. "

For the first time here, the Mad Emperor clearly set his gaze on Munin.

Munin sits comfortably with a good posture and moderate tension.

That's the secret sealed room, isn't it?

Emperor Wild Midea nodded to Munin, who questioned him softly.

”Hmm... according to the literature, some of the forbidden spells can weaken the goddess”

Maybe that's what Munin learned the other day.

Of course, there could be another curse on weakening.

"If there is a curse forbidden document in the sealed room, it will increase the certainty of the backhand of the Asagi Iksaba... I think so"

Hands behind the battlefield shallows.

inherent skills, or.

... maybe it's time to put in some exploration.

Outside hands, right? His Majesty said during the previous negotiation that "that is, the power to drag down the gods".

”That's right, that person's deepest hand... might even kill God in a way”

Is it such an inherent skill that I have to say it?

... but, for example.

If it wasn't for the abnormal system...

Does that damned [Goddess Decurse (Dispel Bubble)] have any effect whatsoever?

Even if there was no curse to forbid, Aso would be able to use her unique skills as a goddess.

However, the Mad Emperor did not seem to want to reveal its detailed effects.

I can tell by the air.

If so,

"But I was surprised. No way a hero from another world would betray the goddess."

It seems that the goddess who is to be found is not trustworthy.

After receiving the invitation, the scorpion said to the Mad Emperor.

It seems more likely than following the goddess, that all of our group will be able to return to the original world safely.

"It looks like shallots, but..."

Well, I agreed that the Mad Emperor was more trustworthy than the Goddess of Fuck.

... Aso on the battlefield.

After all, he doesn't feel like me anyway.

For example, I feel like I'm playing a character different from myself.

But that's not all he is.

It just seemed like she was in a situation.....

Actually, I don't have the feeling that I'm doing everything I can.

There are places where it is difficult to read what Aso is thinking.

It's always ambiguous.

It's hard to know where the intention is.

Emotions are also difficult to read.

…………

I may have felt it blurry from before.

There is a certain sense of discomfort that I have long remembered on the battlefield.

It doesn't look "normal" to me.

Inwardly, I sighed.

Wild Beauty Emperor.

Aso on the battlefield.

"While I'm in this country, I may not feel better than I've felt before..."

After that, the Mad Emperor asked me about the magic I used.

Explain the unique skills of a hero and the skills he had prepared before.

It's not a lie, but it's the usual way to hide it.

Others revealed the existence of Piggy Maru (it seems that the Mad Emperor was also concerned).

I was able to hear some stories from the Mad Emperor about the relationship around Mira.

After arriving at the castle, Hawk explains the story in the carriage.

Then, just past noon, the carriage finally dived through the castle gate.



I came to a square reminiscent of Rotary, and the carriage stopped.

Greetings came through the door of the castle.

First, Hawk got off.

Next, the Mad Emperor.

Then I'll get out.

There are three main things to do here.

Signing ceremony.

Receive the listed items from the treasure trove.

And the seal on the forbidden spell -- unseal it.

Slay, who was following her, came over to sweeten herself.

I've been following the carriage, but it seems that I was a little uneasy.

I stroked Slay and turned my gaze.

At the end of the line of sight, a gentle slope of cobblestones continued to rise.

From the top of the hill, I could see the eastern side of the Imperial City, where the first packing was.

Looking at the walls, the Imperial City was well defended.

It was like the Imperial City Fortress.

By the way, when the castle approached, the Mad Emperor made it open the curtain.

So I had the chance to see the Imperial City as well.

It was supposed to be during the war, but the air wasn't as tingly as I expected.

Well, I was nervous compared to King Ursa when I met Eve.

Look back at the castle behind you.

An annular castle wall.

A spire of sightings.

Arrow space.

Cobblestone.

And ─ ─ a magnificent and magnificent castle in the middle of the Imperial Capital.

The castle was surrounded by a triple barrier from the sky.

From the outside towards the third wall, the second wall, the first wall and the center--

A white castle sits in the center.

In the original world, there were three, two, one contours from the outside--

That's how it feels to be Honmaru.

The tone of the castle is generally based on white.

But not everything is white.

For example, the groove in the wall is mainly painted with gold and silver.

They were accented and vibrantly colored in white everywhere.

... it feels like a castle made by some stylish designer.

Now, this imperial capital with such a castle is divided into three main sections.

The castle of the emperor, his blood relatives, and the central section of the residence of the high-ranking nobility.

This is the compartment called the "nucleus" inside the first wall.

Outside the central section, there are noblemen and powerful merchants in the same position as them.

In other words, there are middle-class people living there.

This is the second compartment.

The outer side of the second wall that protects the second compartment is said to be the third compartment inhabited by the rest of the population.

Outside the walls, there are also some people who work in agriculture, livestock farming, hunting, etc.

It seems like it's going to be like that if you sort it out.

And, I saw a civil servant-style man in a long suit approaching the Wild Beauty Emperor quickly.

Your Majesty

Are you in a hurry?

"Ha... there's a little problem." Ah, excuse me... based on your ears. "

The clerical man lowered his voice and began to whip his ears.

If it was Eve's ear, I wouldn't be able to hear it.

But as expected, I didn't even know what I was talking about.

At that time, a wave of admiration broke out around me.

It seemed like a reaction to Munin's descent to Seras.

... even those who are used to seeing the Frenzied Emperor, I wonder if it's the first time I've seen Cyrus alive.

"Fufu. You're in trouble every time, Mr. Cyrus."

Munin, who was holding Cyrus's hand when he got off, smiled.

A bit of vermilion was infiltrated on both cheeks, and Ceras smiled bitterly.

"Should I wear a mask after all..."

; and

"With all due respect, I'm in a hurry."

When the Mad Emperor said so, the attention of the scene gathered from Cyrus to you.

A mad beauty emperor who turned himself over.

Hawk, I'll leave it to you to guide the Kono Battle Group after this.

"I'll take care of it."

I'm sorry, Lord Belzegia.

"No, it's under wartime now." We also anticipate a sudden turnaround in the situation. "

"It would be helpful if you could say so. Oh-that's not a problem with the transfer of the treasure trove, so don't worry about it."

The case in question is probably about the sealed room.

The Frenzied Emperor left the castle with his clanmates and escort.

Since Hawk saw the emperor behind him,

“Now, let's begin by showing you to the Bearded Guest House, where you'll be staying.”



"It feels like you've exhausted your luxuries..."

A serrus sits on a long chair and looks out over the room.

After we entered a room in the museum, we finally settled down.

In terms of the floor plan, this is like a living room.

We were taken to a museum built next to the main castle building.

I imagine it's a bit of a luxurious "separation".

There are also a number of similar large and small museums dotted around this museum.

Piggy! Piggy! Piggy! Piggy! Pignee!

Piggy Maru is bouncing around indoors.

"Poof! Poof!"

Is it because of the size or the luxury?

Tension is high.

... What's the matter, Piggy Maru?

Hawk, by the way, explained how he spent his time in the castle, and then quit earlier.

So now there was only one side of the Kono Battle Corps.

I'm also sitting on a bench.

"Seras used to live in the royal palace, didn't he?" Even from the perspective of Seras, is it such a shivering feeling? "

Seras strokes the feathers of the bench to confirm the feel.

"It's as if you put your hands on it in a different way...... I've heard rumors that one of the materials is so...... but not this much......"

Perhaps you've assigned me the best hall in the world.

In fact, it's the biggest museum.

and Munin, who had left his luggage, fluttered over.

Sit on a feathered sofa with your head straight down.

Hahhn

And the back rests on my back.

The long silver hair flowed like a stream.

You must be exhausted.

"I'm sorry... it seems like I'm going to be tired easily when I store my wings... oh..."

"If we keep the curtains closed, we can put out the wings, right?" The appearance of our wings is exposed in the previous negotiations... so if that's where we're all alone, it's fine. "

Yes, the storage of the wings was burdensome.

"When you can rest, you should rest."

"Really? Wow,♪then I'll put out my wings right away..."

"Hey-mu, Lord Munin!?"

"Oh, Mr. Selas? I wonder what it is?"

"If you want to change your clothes, at least in a place where you can't see my lord..."

"--Ha!? I-I see... no, I♪completely forgave my heart to the Lord... haa, I'm embarrassed..."

…………

"Ugh... yeah, that's right... most of all, even if Belzegia were to see her aunt's change of clothes in front of her... I'm sure it would be poisonous to her eyes... poison..."

"It's not like that, so please change your clothes over there"

Yes.♪

Munin takes the change of clothes and disappears into the next room.

Then, the door closed.

Seras stares at the closed door for a breath.

She smiled like a follower.

"Mu, do you say that Lord Munin is innocent and charming... he's very innocent..."

"...... I'm not a good type."

Ka-cha-cha!

"Hey, Lord!?" Didn't you just say something behind my back!? No more! That would be terrible! "

Munin, with a subtle piercing around her shoulder, peers through the door.

"You're telling me after you've figured it all out..."

”Fufufu, I can't help but find out.♪Fufufu... I'll change my clothes right away, so just wait a bit.”

Patan, I think.

Again, the door is closed.

That's it... look, there's something about a mood maker.

Because I've always been a chieftain.

We don't want the air to get too serious.

"I can't take it off because it's too tight down there!" Oh, this is not good! Seras-san, please help me take it off-- "

Cacha

"Lord Mu-Munin!? I was wondering if it would be a bad idea to come out on the way to change!" I'll be right there! "

"Celus-san, is this... am I getting fat?!" I think my lower body is getting thicker!? Seras-san!? "

"Well, if you ask me such a thing--"

............ you care about us, right?



After that, we rushed through the building.

There seemed to be nothing particularly suspicious about it.

It can be seen as a building for attracting important guests as usual.

He said, "You can walk freely."

That said, there are certainly places where people say you shouldn't go in.

From the window, I watched the outside garden,

"As expected, I don't think you're going to want to hide it..."

That mad beauty emperor.

I'm sure I've already woven in the surveillance over there.

"...... I'll take a short stroll around." You two must be tired, so get some rest. "

I exchanged gazes with Seras.

"I understand." Then, I will wait for you here with Lord Munin. "

Munin is lying on a sofa with a backrest and sleeping.

I was aware that I was accumulating a lot of fatigue on my journey so far.

It's an unfamiliar world.

There's a lot of information coming in that doesn't compare to ours.

You must be mentally tired.

It seemed that he was behaving in a way that could not be understood.

I suspected fatigue because of the tone of my voice and the speed with which I reacted to the conversation.

So you should let Munin rest for a while.

But I can't leave her alone, who is a cross-saga.

Seras seemed to have figured it out right away.

... well, I'm easier to move around by myself.

Even if the three of you go a lot, you'll only stand out evil now.

I would like to know the authenticity of Ceras... but I think Munin will be preferred here.

"I beg you, Cyrus."

"Be careful."



After leaving the hall, I walked straight through the cobblestone through the flower beds and implantation.

Leave the guest house area and turn right.

After going through the small garden beyond, I entered the crossing hallway.

There is a door at the end of the hallway, and two guards stand.

The soldiers were nervous.

It's Lord Belzegia, isn't it? What can I do for you? "

“I wanted to see the castle. As you may know, we have His Majesty's permission."

“Yes, I was told to let you know when you arrived - please.”

A soldier opened the door and stepped into the castle.

A long carpeted hallway.

Is this... a marble floor?

Large, well-cleaned glass windows.

I can see that one of the window frames looks like a very fine material.

Because the outside is still bright, there is no light on the hanging candles placed on the wall at equal intervals.

Deposit your back on the hallway wall once and retrieve the floor plan of the castle from your pocket.

It was given to me by Hawk.

Areas that can be entered are color-coded.

Well, in the first place, the floor plan of this castle is probably for "customers".

The floor plan for such a customer can't have all the inside of the castle covered honestly.

Of course, the sealed room doesn't seem to be in this diagram either.

…………

The surveillance was... three people.

There is one person who is good at erasing signs.

But not as much as Eve.

I don't think we need to worry about that much.

I went down the hallway without seeing the gesture I noticed.

I went out to the place where I opened it.

It is a large space with high ceilings.

There is an ivory handrail staircase that leads upstairs.

This hall was blown up to the second floor.

So,

…………

Ahem?

Up the stairs - upstairs.

Someone who seemed to be trying to get down the stairs noticed me.

"If you think about it." You look like an evil fallen hero, Yukio-chan. "

"Oh, surely you are..."

I look up in that direction and say my name.

Lord Asagi Iksaba
