"Well, so Noah's strategy for the Caps Kingdom is ───"

As the debriefing session is over and the strategic meeting is being held, Claire approaches me quickly and talks in a whisper when listening to the explanation of the military department.

"I'm sorry. Did you give your son permission to leave Noah?"

"No, I haven't given such permission."

What is Claire saying? Needless to confirm, I can't give Koki a permission to go out. Looking at her while thinking about such a thing, I found that Claire's complexion changed every time she communicated with her at her ear. Looking at that complexion, I feel something unpleasant.

"My son is currently waiting at the" suits and landings "to explain to her that she has received permission to go out of the lady. I will give an emergency stop order to the control center in the name of the lady. "

"Well, please."

What did she think about trying to get out of Noah until she uttered a "lie"? I didn't make him feel particularly lame on Noah Island, and he reluctantly allowed shooting training, which was actually the opposite.

Until now, I never heard of me, but suddenly ... Claire reports a screaming voice as he desperately considers the cause of Koki's actions.

"Emergency occurred! Mr. Kouki ignored the instructions of the controller, ignited the thruster without permission, and took off. Now he is heading for another continent instead of the kingdom!"

"Immediately send a message and order to return to Noah! If not possible, force a landing with the remote control from here!"

"Impossible! Koki doesn't have any effective communication method because he has cut off all communication from the suit side. Remote control is not installed on the 8th generation machine in consideration of electronic warfare It's a completely stand-alone system. "

What! When the technology that was equipped to protect my son completely backfired, I began to think while biting my nails. Fortunately, the fact that the suit's on-location device was not blocked did not mean that the worst, "rebellion," had occurred.

If it weren't a rebellion, say, "Where are you going to do what? Is the problem. I declare that the meeting is suspended because I have decided that nothing can be solved here.

"The Strategic Conference will be suspended. My son has left Noah without permission, and all military, technical, and communications personnel should begin tracking Kouki with full power."

In my words, I was satisfied with the staff running to my department all at once, and I myself ran to the command center located underground.

When I arrive at the command center, a staff member who tracks Kouki on a satellite finds me and reports the current situation.

"Koki is currently flying at a cruising speed of 18,000 meters. He has turned several times and is currently flying to the northern continent."

"So you're not heading to a densely populated area, right?"

The staff replied "Yes" to my question. It was good ... I can't help but avoid the situation where Koki slaughters humans at some point. What is on the north continent? I can't tell if there is something that Kouki wants, or whether it's a deceptive action that doesn't make us realize our true purpose. Ask staff members analyzing the information from the satellite what the North Continent has.

"Almost all the northern continent is a high concentration magical area. There should be no place where Koki is particularly interested ..."

Is it a deceptive behavior? When he is worried about the behavior of his son who does not know the purpose at all, Shuichi-san talks to her while showing me a paper with printed materials with a steep expression.

"This is a list of personal weapons brought by Koki and weapons in suits.

I was almost suffocated by reading the catalog that was passed. Koki himself wears only 50 shots of ammunition per shotgun, but the problem is suits. The prototype 180 mm electromagnetic projection gun and pile bunker were basic equipment, so I could understand why I took it, but the missile warhead mounted on the missile launcher mounted on the back was a terrible thing.

"That girl ... did you bring 'imaginary weapons'?"

The noise of the command center suddenly calmed down in the words I leaked. Even Adam's Eve, who met at a lunar site, really cares about bringing an imaginary weapon, which was positioned as the final weapon. Based on the materials collected from the archeological site and the explanation of Koki, it was my mistake to neglect to find and bring in only one imaginary bomb as a trial.

Theoretically, if the weapon is exploded, the ability of a small black hole to completely annihilate 2,000 kilometers around is demonstrated. Did you intend to do a test shot and headed for the empty northern continent?

"What about Miki? Koki could easily shake it off, but he could instruct my subordinates to follow him."

I think that might be good for Shuichi's words, but if Kouki opposes that act by activating optical camouflage and cutting off the position information of the suit, it will be impossible to completely track it, so it is still not Means should not be adopted. However,…, personnel tracking down Koki told us that the situation was suddenly changing, as it was spending time without such effective means.

"Koki is lowering the altitude of the suit! The current location is 300 km inland on the North Continent, the altitude is 8000 m. During the descent, 4000/3500, 2000 ... eh !? It disappeared from the satellite at an altitude of about 1200 m did!"

"Did you activate the optical camouflage? Isn't it a crash?"

"Unknown! I have not confirmed the use of optical camouflage. There is also no possibility of a crash. The position information of the suit is moving normally. The cause of the disappearance is being analyzed."

I hoped that the analysis of the cause would be completed sooner, but I could only watch the position information and biological reactions of Koki's suit reflected on the screen.

---- Koki Arakawa-Perspective ---

While flying in the direction indicated by Gong, he found a giant octopus-like creature swimming in the sea on the way, so he zoomed the camera. Looking at the sight of the slow-moving ocean, I saw a creature like a giant whale attacking the octopus.

"That's great! Look at the big con, octopus and whale are fighting."

"Con, corn"

Gong is excited too and the tail is violently fluttering from a while ago. I would like to lower the altitude and observe closer, but give up this time because lowering the altitude will consume extra fuel due to air resistance.

Eventually, when the whales disappeared, the communication device began to blink, and I guess that my mother on Noa Island was sending communication. If you return now, you will be told that you will definitely come back, so I decided not to notice and asked Kon who was drinking water from the tube on her lap.

"Con, we're about to invade the northern continent soon, but are we in the right direction? From where do you feel the strong magic?"

"Con!"

Gong uses his tail dexterously to point to one point reflected on the radar. Well, 300 km inland ... It's the distance I can go back to the end. However, if you hand over Orichalcum to the blacksmith in the royal capital, the return from the royal capital will be a normal walking movement, not a flight. Moreover, refueling is needed at Noah's outpost on the way, but is that OK? Even if you get Orichalcum, even if you get angry and get hateful on the earth, you can go to court and get rid of it.

"Okay, let's lower the altitude above the target. After a little while, we'll unlock the weapon's safety device, so you can hold onto me."

In my words, stroking the kon that clings to the neck of the reinforced exoskeleton and then gradually lowering the altitude. At an altitude of 8000 meters, I felt a strange sensation as I lowered the altitude further while releasing the safety device of the weapon and preparing for an unexpected battle.

"Well, isn't it strange now?"

"Con ..."

Apparently, Kon felt the same feeling and felt disgusted. When he checked the current altitude with the altimeter, it was displayed as 1000 meters. That is a calculation that felt something around 1200, was it due to your care? I want to check it up again, but I'm worried about the remaining fuel. Fortunately, there was no problem with my body or suit, so I continued to lower my altitude. When I was flying slowly toward the target at an altitude of around 200 meters, I saw something like a garden in front. The garden will no doubt be the destination, as Kon screams violently, pointing at its tail.

"Ok, okay. Be quiet there because you're going there! Noisy when heard at your ears."

Land the suit in the garden, ignoring the shy con. Turn off the engine and look around, but there seems to be no problem.When preparing to get down with a shotgun placed next to the seat, Kon will hold a paper in his mouth and show it .

"Please do not remove the enhanced exoskeleton. Also, release the safety gear and keep the gun ready to fire, and when shooting, calm down and aim at the fuselage as directed in the training. The master has no talent for shooting, so he can not aim at his head. "

No, you're not writing what people care about. At first he had a macho teach him to fire a rifle, but he was devastated by his talent and was eventually encouraged to use a shotgun if he couldn't. Kon's bastard wants to know why he wasn't there.

After I nodded silently, I loaded the first shot into the shotgun chamber where the ammunition had been loaded and opened the suit cockpit.

"Can this stone be transformed into Orichalcum?"

"Con, ... con! Concon!"

I went out and asked the conn which stone was good, but apparently I couldn't do it with the stone that I had, so I pointed to the stone that was rolling over with my tail, so I moved and saw a stone that I hadn't seen anywhere else Also collect appropriately.

[What are you doing here? ]

While retrieving the indicated stone, he suddenly hears a voice from behind and looks back with a surprise while holding a gun. When I saw the person who made the voice, a beautiful older sister with two horns growing from the forehead was approaching me while observing me in a long winding.

She is wearing proper clothes and she looks alert, so maybe she has intelligence. Once I drop the gun down, activate the translator on the exoskeleton and talk to me.

"Hello"

[Hey, do you speak Elven? Are you an elf? ]

I'm sorry ... I can't understand what your sister is talking about at all. If your sister is still approaching me, fire a warning and escape with all your might! While trying to escape in the heart, Kon, who had been biting a stone and measuring his strength, raised his roar after a long absence.

"Graaa! Gururu ... Graaa!"

"Well, I understand. I guess you should use the translation magic as you say !? So don't bark like that."

Suddenly, she began to speak words that I could understand. I guess he used the same magic as Addy because the translation magic was saying. I'm relieved to be able to talk about it, and I'll ask her who she is.

"Are you a concubine?"

"Graaa! Galle"

"Hey !? I don't get any closer than this! I'm sorry! I'm sorry to have managed to treat the white dragon, an elf boy.

I was asked, so I grabbed the threatening cons next to me and threw it at the suit cockpit. Draw a parabola to check the con sucked into the cockpit and ask a question again.

"Sorry, who is your sister again?"

"My concubine is Victoria, the last surviving Loa."

Lore ... I feel like Lore was a higher spirit. So isn't your sister in front of you @Victoria a great person? Unlike the Elves, Victoria is pointing at me and asking me to be impressed by the fact that she has met a really different world.

"By the way, how did you get into the garden of the concubine? Or, more than that, why the elf lives calmly on this continent, and would normally have died under the magic of this continent."

Where to start? In the first place, Victoria misunderstands me as an elf, and it's hard to explain. When I was struggling with my head, Kon, who came out of the cockpit, barked a little lower than before.

"Gura, Gururu ..."

"Muh? Humm, that's exactly what you say. It's certainly not worth having a visitor here, let's take you to the castle."

Victoria appeared to be able to converse with Kon normally, telling him to follow her and then walked with her back. When I asked him what he said while holding him, he wrote a letter on paper and showed it to me.

"I seemed to understand my words, so I asked for tea. I asked the elf for a kind of drink so my master can drink it too. "

What are you doing without permission! ? If you get angry with your opponent even though you've come across a good feeling, don't bother your child. I stabbed my nails to avoid making strange requests to Gong, and started chasing after Victoria.

Once inside the castle, a space like a cathedral was spreading. Painted stained glass was fitted on the ceiling, and the story progressed as one entered the castle. As I watched it and followed Victoria's back, I was guided to the terrace where I could see the garden.

"Sit down. Let the maid bring tea now."

While waiting, the maid, whose body was covered with cold air, brought tea. I wonder what? Is this person an ice spirit or a similar race? While watching the maid silently brewing tea and leaving, Victoria resumed asking questions.

"That's the continuation, but how did you get into the garden?"

"Well, I'm flying in the sky. No! Please stop making such subtle expressions! I'll explain everything. I'm not an elf in the first place, we are ───"

While drinking tea that tastes like raspberry, I explain to Victoria how he came to the garden. Originally, he was not a resident of this world, he was transferred to a different world because his place was losing his place in the original world, he signed diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Mercava, escaped from Noah Island for the desire of Orichalcum, On the way, we talked about the earth.

Occasionally speaking of all of them, while confused by the differences in nuances, perhaps due to the double translation of the language, Victoria listened to me laughing and sometimes angry.

"Well, that's a really interesting story. Isn't another alien like you prejudiced against demons?"

"Personally, I accept any race if I can communicate in any way and do not take hostile actions without language."

I also share my values with Victoria, who asks me a serious look. Most of the time, if you can talk, you're going to get rid of creatures that can't communicate at all. After hearing my words, Victoria cried and gave instructions to the maid who would be waiting in the hallway.

"Call Ilya and Grenara, and Akator."

It sounds like you've summoned someone, and I'm going to make sure that I don't really have "prejudice" against the monsters. In other words, it's a great chance to meet non-human demons! Excitement shakes hands but desperately drinks tea and hides it.

Waiting for arrival while watching the entrance of the room flickering, a woman with a spider on the lower body, a cow walking bipedally, and a mantis with a completely visible appearance enter the room with a knocking sound and greet me.

"What do you think about these guys?"

"Illya is an alkenyl tribe, is it possible to walk on the ceiling after all !? Grenara seems to be strong and powerful. I do not know the race of Akator, but the kama is very cool, let me touch it ! "

As I get alone and get close to the three, Ilya and Grenara stare at me with surprised expressions. I don't know only Acattle's expression because it's an insect, but I don't think she hates me because she gave me my scar without fear.

After enjoying the kama, this time I will get permission from Ilya and touch the spider's feet. The feeling was fluffy and it was very pleasant, so I raised my tension further and I was excited.

"It's okay, I know you have no prejudice."

"I'm sorry, I just forgot myself."

Victoria seemed to laugh at my apology and nodded, then closed her eyes and began to think about something. After hardening for a while, she slowly opened her mouth and spoke.

"The last question is, is another world accepting concubines, not just the Lord?"

"Yes, I think it's okay. At least our leader's mother will surely accept with a smile."

Victoria, nodding his arms to my words, stared at my eyes and gave me an answer that jumped far above my expectations.

"Declare in the name of 'The Demon King' Victoria! We, Ursna Empire has diplomatic relations with foreigners"

I was about to cry in fear of my imagination being scolded by Noah's "Maou" mother about Victoria's invasion of the Maou territory more than he was.

---- Miki Arakawa-Viewpoint ---

For three hours after Koki's suit has disappeared, the suit has been stationary for 2 hours and 40 minutes before. I can't wait any longer, I make the final decision and order Shuichi-san as Noah's order.

"The technology department is no longer in control. It will transfer all control to the military at this time, and will leave everything up to the military."

"Okay, be sure to collect it safely."

"Koki has sent a message! This is a Level A emergency call."

I was grabbing the microphone and shouting at Kouki, as the words of the staff in charge of communication seemed to tear me.

"Kou-chan! Are you doing it all ?! Where are you now?"

Koki appears on the screen and looks like sheeping while crying. Have you been so scared? So I didn't want to let Koki out ... I wish I was a little disciplined. Asked again in a gentle voice to comfort the frightened Koki, the son finally began talking about the situation.

"Don't get angry, I'm on the North Continent right now."

"I know. I'll be greeted soon."

When I instructed Shuichi to pick him up with his eyes, Koki looked at my complexion as if he were muttering something. I will scold about this case later, but thanks for being able to stay safe now, "Is there anything else?" ].

"Don't get angry. Contact the Emperor of the Ursuna Empire in the North Continent ... Meet Victoria with the Demon King Victoria. As a result, the Ursna Empire has agreed to enter into diplomatic relations with Noah."

Shuichi supports me when I am dizzy and about to fall. What did your son say now? Devil? Diplomacy? In other words, have you entered the demon king territory alone and negotiated with the demon king himself? I was astonished to be dizzy, but Claire and other staff whispered with dead fish-like eyes, "It's usually impossible, but it's possible with your son."

"It's alright, Ko-chan. I appreciate your action, but where is the Ursuna empire? I think it's underground because it's not reflected on satellites."

"That's what it is, are you observing my place right now? If so, please zoom out the satellite camera and adjust it to get around 300km."

As soon as he instructed the personnel operating the satellite to follow the instructions, the camera immediately captured the area around Koki's 300 km. After confirming it, report to Koki that the adjustment has been completed.

"Are you ready? Okay, please Victoria."

The moment Kouki asks the Demon King for something behind the screen, everyone in the command center screams. Satellite images show only soggy mountains and narrow rivers, but parts of the North Continent begin to blur with noise, and the mountains and rivers disappear. What gradually emerged was the true appearance of the vast Ursuna empire with its great castle and lush land.

"No way, electronic interference? Isn't electronic interference of this scale possible on Earth?"

"No, it's not." Ultra-wide-area cognition-blocking magic "that thousands of Ursuna sorcerers used. They didn't really want to be a war, so they kept their whereabouts secret by magic. Because it's amazing. ''

It's not a terrible story, the state-of-the-art observation equipment we use has lost to Magic. The technology that completely hides the Imperial territory from new observing satellites that can analyze detailed data of underground fortresses imposes the need to rethink the magical phenomenon we have been thinking about so far. Was enough. I'm sweating cold with the magic of the empire.

"Well, Victoria says he wants to go to Noah ... come on?"

I spent half a day holding a meeting and thinking about how to negotiate with the Demon King, but I started preparing to welcome the Demon King, feeling irrelevant anger at Koki who broke it down in a single word.
