The laboratory of the cloud magically destroyed by Mr. Bazak. At the bottom of it remained a door completely unaffected by magic.

"Here. And are you completely unaffected?"

"It seems so. It must be an extra important place. Something like a junction must have been activated so it wouldn't be broken."

"Master Luciel, I can open it...... is that it? There's no key hole, but it won't open."

Estea took the initiative and tried to open the door, but it doesn't seem to open.

"Is it also a trick? Then [Dispel] How about this?

"I'll try again. Oh, it's open."

Then I just touched my hand this time, and it looks like it opened easily.

I guess there was some kind of magic formation or some kind of trick. Even when I was in Nerdar, I never studied this kind of magic technology, so I'd like to remember all of this.

With that in mind, Estea went inside the door.

I'm in no hurry for Estia's ability to act, even though there could be traps and enemies inside. But I couldn't help thinking about it, so I followed Estea with Lionel into the room.

Shortly after entering the room, Estea rushed over to the person who was falling, hugging her and immediately looking at this one and raising her voice, stuffed with cutting feathers.

"Dear Luciel! Please remove the slave print immediately."

Speaking of which, if you used to be with Estia, you weren't a slave and weird.

Was it a slave to the cloud that you were suffering? Once he shifted his gaze to Lionel and took confirmation, he activated the dispel on the person Estea held.

Then I heard the burly baki-n somehow and the high sound of the metal crushing after the sound of a crack in something.

There just doesn't seem to be a problem, so I'll get confirmation from Estia.

"Are you still alive?

"Yes. When I found it, I couldn't seem to hold my throat and breathe, but now I can breathe."

A slave engraved with a slave crest is made to die in the form of his master dying or liberating or following him.

I knew that, but apparently you can't die right away.

Bad for Estea, whose acquaintance is alive and happy, but I activated purifying magic not to clean it just in case, but to determine if it was demonizing.

"Oh, thank you, Master Luciel"

Even though I felt a little guilty about Esther's gratitude, I took a breath that she apparently wasn't a Demon because she didn't have a noticeable reaction to Esther's holding figure.

"Is that the reincarnator who was supposed to have been killed that Estia was talking about?

"Yes. It's been a few years since then, but I'm pretty sure it's your sister Alice"

"... ok. I'd really like to talk to you soon, but it's just not good if I don't rendezvous with the Keffins any more. If we catch this room lightly in the coffin of the Hidden, we'll destroy it and rendezvous."

"Thank you"

"Then I'll look for this side first."

"Oh, please"

Thus Estea housed the reincarnator, who is named Alice, in the coffin of the concealer.

Looking again at the deepest room of the laboratory, as much as I wanted to call it a drug bank, a large quantity of chemicals was placed in a small place.

And there were even test tubes and microscopes on the table, like those used in science experiments.

"... maybe you were experimenting with these things here to increase the rate of conformity of demonization, etc?

I decided to store these things from one end to the magic bag and seal them permanently.

Sooner or later, when I spend my slow life, if something like this comes out of the world, I won't be able to relax.

I absolutely don't like that.

So determined, I asked Lionel to burn this room where I had recovered it in advance.

I just confirmed that Lionel would set fire to it with a fiery sword and burn it up, and I would speak to both of them.

"Now we have accomplished our initial purpose. Cloud was taken over by Lionel, and he was studying demonization. Crushed here. The rest is within the Empire..."

"Dear Luciel, if you don't mind, can you leave everything to me here?

"Okay."

"... don't you ever ask me what I do?

"Oh. I don't know much about the Empire. Then you should leave it to Lionel, who knows better, to move in the right direction."

"Thank you. Let's rendezvous with Ketty and the others immediately."

"Oh. Let's do that."

We lit a fire inside the lab, and we came back to where we fought the cloud.

Then, apparently, it was noisy up there, so I decided to move immediately to the ground.

"Build a staircase where you can go up. [Build my way, Tu Long]"

Magic into the fantasy wand, poking the ground at the tip of the wand as he imagined the phenomenon and spoke to the earthly dragon, the ground burst out and the stairs quickly could be done.

"You didn't need much magic. You saved me."

"Dear Luciel, I'll go first"

Lionel told him so and ran up the stairs all at once.

Well done, so I was hoping for a few more reactions... well, I can't help it.

"Is the magic one okay?

"It's okay. Let's go."

"I'll come forward, please follow me"

What nodded at Estia's words and looked up the stairs was a half-baked giant golem that stood barely to protect it with the injured Keffins.

I did not insult the power of the Imperial Soldier, but was surprised that the three were hurt, but immediately activated an area high heel on the three, while looking at the Imperial Soldier, he looked stunned and consolidated.

Let's see what's going on. I was just closing in on the Keffins, and I heard Lionel.

"Ask again. Who are you pointing the blade at? Is this me anymore? If that's the case, I'll deal with him at any time. Now, first of all, whoever's in command of this place, step forward."

Then two Imperial soldiers came forward in such a way that they were pushed out. The two faces are already bright blue.

This way, when I was a warrior general in the Empire, I knew Lionel was in awe.

Nevertheless, I can't feel any fear, even if I have to look over the soldiers gathered here.

Is it because you are consigning to Lionel, or...

"Isn't everyone full of motivation to lay a sword on me in the morning? I haven't been around for a long time, but do you want to do some exercises now?

When you call out to the soldiers with a laughing voice, you lose your anger from the soldiers' eyes.

"Yes, no, no. Master Lionel has just declared that he will be withdrawn from the line, and if you invest in our defense in the future, our empire will remain a stone's throw."

"That's right. And I've been sick for the last few years, so I shouldn't have to."

I heard the Imperial Soldiers are a bunch of ghostly people with tough physical and mental powers and moving forward with nothing to fear... apparently the soldiers here don't fit into that.

Are you originally from a nobleman because a valve stands? Or would it be the couch of a former merchant knighted by loads of money?

"Wow. Will you be so careful?"

"Also, of course. The General is the empire's strongest spear and shield."

"I'm afraid I'll be doing exercises with Master Lionel, the apex of the martial arts..."

The soldiers gathered snorted simultaneously to agree.

Lionel laughs and nods, spreading his relief expression to the soldiers as well.

"Right. Well, how suspicious is that you hurt my friends and my squire, so why don't you give them a hand and do some exercises with all the people here?"

At that moment, serenity dominated the place, as the air on the spot froze.

Then a few seconds later, it was unexpectedly the two captains who broke this air.

"Please wait. Your suspicions… We're not the ones who attacked them. They're fighting the anomalies that are rolling over there, and we just rushed earlier."

I see. That makes sense that the three of them were injured.

Nevertheless, were demons still entering the venue......

When that happens, we can't deny the possibility that the Demons are still lurking.

"... well. Then why aren't you fighting? However early in the morning, if there were any anomalies in the castle, we would be headed straight to the scene."

"Well, that's because, first of all, we prioritized the safety of His Majesty the Emperor"

"Hmm... then His Majesty also knows about this matter. Then I'll have to report it. Gentlemen, I'm sorry to hear that, but I'll see you later on in the exercise. Is His Majesty in his bedroom?

Since Lionel told him so, the soldiers respond in a truly crisp way, even with a face whose delightful colour cannot be suppressed.

"Yes, it seemed you were still on holiday"

"Your Majesty will be relieved if the General shows his face to His Majesty."

"Um, shall we? Gentlemen, return to your duties and act shamelessly as Imperial soldiers."

"" "Ha" "

"" Now if you'll excuse me, "

When the two captains finished their greetings, the soldiers left to meet in unison and flee the scene.

"Now you can walk in the castle with confidence"

Lionel laughed as she looked back.

Seeing that I can afford more than usual, how do I look now from Lionel? That came to my mind.

I'd love it if it looked like I could afford this much...

With that in mind, I nodded to Lionel and decided to check on Keffin and the others.

"Keffin, Ketty, Paula. Everybody okay?

"Yes, I was ambushed by the demons shortly after I came up here, and the demons were strong again, forcing me to struggle, but after a little while, all the demons suffered, so I defeated all the demons in that gap."

"It was pretty strong. He was wearing brilliant armor, so I think he was probably a Kingsguard."

"Magic Limits. I'm hungry..."

... Were you ambushed... You didn't hear me because Mr. Bazak was unleashing magic.

Nevertheless, Keffin and Ketty feel strongly about each other, and I can't help but think about it.

"Paula, where's the demon stone?

"... no more"

I guess I used up everything with a golem like this barricade.

"Guys, I'm sorry I forced you. But now the original purpose has been achieved. I'm just leaving after, but from here on out, I'm transferring command to Lionel."

When I proclaimed that, my gaze concentrated from me to Lionel.

And......

"From here we shall go all the way to the emperor's bedroom at once and we shall seize the emperor"

Lionel declared forcefully.
