Deep within the Great Curse Realm, the Palace of the Minogulas was verifying the damage suffered in previous battles and formulating future policies.

Atu, the sludge, leads the way at this gathering of major facades.

In the absence of their lord, Takudu, the meeting begins somewhere in the painful air.

“Now, I'm sure you're all aware of the situation surrounding Minogula.”

Everyone who was there nodded quietly to the words that were released the most from the opening.

Earlier battles... that is, the divine kingdom of light, Rene, divided from the Holy Kingdom of Qualia, and those who lead them.

The battle against them, called the TRPG forces, was a series of chaos and shock.

Unilateral raids and Atu's departure. Spawn on Takudo and capture Atu.

The final showdown brings destruction to the enemy, in keeping with the call of the doomed king, and the process leading to it is unpredictable for anyone.

It was a battle that made the world aware of the existence of Ira = Tact.

But as a result... can we say that this is a victory?

Certainly, Atu returned to Minogura, and the kingdom of God was completely destroyed.

However, the price was too high.

"I don't dare to be speechless. Currently, Takudo-sama's memory has been lost, and he cannot lead the country."

That is the absence of the king.

The situation of Takudu Ilikai is an indication of the critical situation surrounding Mynogura.

The king is the king, and the king is the nation.

With Takudu's situation unfavorable, Mynogura is more in trouble than in any previous battle.

"Has there been any change in the king's health...?"

No, unfortunately.

I wonder if I would try straw. Somewhere with a bitter expression, the warrior leader's gear asked Atu, but his shoulders dropped on the words that were returned quietly.

If we briefly describe the current situation of Takudo, it would be closest to describing it as memory loss.

Language and general common sense seemed to remain, but he seemed to have completely forgotten who he was and lost his identity.

Now I sit in my chair in my room and watch the day go by.

Somehow, if I was lucky enough to have a conversation with Atu as my memory seemed to return from time to time, it was impossible to lead the country in the end, even if it took only a short time.

The cause is unknown. The solution is also unknown.

The only thing we can see is the obvious fact that we need to act quickly.

"I am responsible for the king's absence, but I understand that you don't have time to discuss it right now."

While Atu is about to become helpless and helpless, he spins his words in disdain.

It wasn't over yet. Even when I fell into the enemy's hands, Takudu helped me.

Now it's your turn to help him. And even without Takudou, there were many things I could do.

"The operation of the minogulas during the absence of the king. And we will do our best to ensure that the king recovers quickly."

“Yes, I am currently being delegated the operational capacity of the state on my behalf. It's an unfamiliar job, but with your help, that's fine.”

Even though I was in Takudo's situation for a while, Atu remained relatively calm.

Atu, who originally functioned as a hero but also as a leader, could manage the country without any problems.

There is also support from the dark elves, so there is not much uneasiness when it comes to domestic issues.

"There will be no problem in the country. But when you look out of the country, that's not going to happen."

"Yes, there is an urgent need to investigate outside the country. Lack of information can be a risk to any decision.”

The problem is outside.

Old Mortar's sharp points are also reliable in this room.

He was right, the movement abroad was more troublesome than at home.

The destruction of the kingdom of God Kwang Renaea had already been fought in the previous battle. And the core witches and players were destroyed perfectly.

But the situation after that is far too unknown. Even if there is still room on the opponent's side, I don't think I can immediately move to action, but it is only dangerous that I can't grasp the trend of other good forces.

However, Mynogura has a very different big advantage in this world from the time of the Eternal Nations. That's them.

“Don't worry about that. Our king is alive and well, whether the king rests or not. We are already working hard to release what we have and gather information.”

Their Dark Elves are a family originally skilled in assassination and intelligence manipulation.

Takudo's ability, which was also greatly appreciated, can be unfortunately demonstrated even under these circumstances.

"That's...... So, what do you know?"

You must have been waiting for the word. Emul, who would have scrutinized the content in advance, brought the information.

It was something that was a bit of a misfortune to Minogula.

In other words, it confirms the survival of the two saints and information on where they disappeared.

In the end, the two of them survived as the witch Elakino wished.

As for Atu, who watched their strange friendship up close, it was more obvious what the two saints would do to Minogura in the future than look at the fire.

One more concern that bothers Atu's head.

"I'm curious to know you're missing. It would be nice to see where this is hiding and trying to rebuild. If I had let the king stop me at that time....."

"That's right..." No, Takudo-sama couldn't have finished his plan with one hand, so of course the two saints were also scheduled. It must have been close at that point that it didn't come true... "

There was nothing we could do about it, more than prioritize the king.

Atu recalls his memory. At the last moment, Takudu was trying to stop the Saintess Soarina.

But suddenly, they decided to abort and retreat.

There was a slight headache during the battle, but the bomb I was holding exploded in the blink of an eye.

That's not all.

At that time, indeed, he said at the same time as he tongued, "Was it impossible for a stone to do that?"

In other words, something unusual happened that we could not perceive, and we were forced to change our strategy.

Here's the result.

Even Takudo could not have anticipated it, and as a result, Takudo himself was corrupted.

"Atu-san, what is the current situation of the King?" That's why, if you rest like this, you'll recover..... "

“No, I can't say for sure, but I may be a little optimistic that time will work out.”

In response to Emul's sadly asking, Atu thrusts his teeth at the brutal reality.

Atu didn't just shut up about the situation.

I once summoned Mary, whose abilities were related to amnesia and oblivion, and secretly examined her.

But the answers that came back were strange.

He said, "Rather than saying you've forgotten your memories, the king himself hasn't been there since the beginning..."

Unusual abnormality. The more I found out about the situation in Takudo, the more desperate it became.

Therefore, Atu thought.

It was unfortunately unlikely that Takudu would recover even if he continued to do so.

That is also evident from his attitude at that time.

We needed a way to break this situation.

And aside from being happy or unhappy, Atu knew one way or another.

"Takudo-sama's illness is probably due to using his abilities." But at the moment, I have no idea what's going to happen and how to deal with it. ”

I felt that the meeting hall was getting darker.

Of course not physically. The sinking of those present evokes such illusions.

However, with the next word from Atu, the illusion takes on a completely opposite form.

"I will seek the cooperation of certain heroes on the issues surrounding Takudo-sama."

Everyone's gaze turned toward Atu.

Surprise and expectation.

Old Mortar, who already knew the decision, was the only one who watched calmly, but the color of expectation that the others could see was obvious, and the level of excitement was obvious.

So far, the influence of heroes in this country is great.

"The name of the hero is [Happy Tongue Vittorio]." Although he has no combat abilities, he is a hero who can only overturn his disadvantages. It's hard to describe his abilities... but let's just say that he can only achieve real value in complex situations that can't be dealt with by force. ”

"Excellent! This is exactly the kind of situation you want to be in!" We must immediately invite the Hero to solve the king's malady! "

"Yes! I was wondering what would happen when I heard that the king was bowed down, but hope grew!"

"Hmm, that would be the best way to break this situation." If you ask, you will be admitted to the king's wisdom. I'm looking forward to seeing you from now on, too. "

And the sisters of Elphur, and the scribes of the scriptures, which were present there, revealed their joy.

The meeting room is full of vitality and enthusiasm, as if the feeling of blockage was a lie.

"There is no shortage of resources to summon heroes." I didn't need to prepare for it, so I wanted to summon it tomorrow. That person will definitely come up with a plan to make Takudo-sama feel better. "

Atu speaks quietly.

The eyes of the dark elves staring at her were lit with a strong flame of will.

This time, it is my strong will to protect my king and reign in this world as the only hegemonic state in the world.

The first step was to summon a new hero. The smoke of rebellion against all beings who disturb their own peace has just been cited.

"But..."

"But... um... I have a little favor to ask of all of you"

There was one person who could take a cold shower in the hot air.

It was a girl with a subtle expression and a restless attitude that made it difficult for her to say anything.

It was a no other attu.

The Dark Elves inwardly blow their necks at her attitude, which is supposed to be the best way to raise her airborne inflammation.

Whether their confusion had been conveyed or not, Atu made up his mind and suddenly said something he didn't quite understand.

"It's okay for a little bit, so why don't you think about the world's strangest person right now, the one who can't do the best things in the world, and the one who can make you irritate yourself?"

The Dark Elves broke their necks again.

What does it really mean? However, there is no reason to argue in particular, so I will draw a figure that I don't want to get close to no matter what I think in my heart, as I was told.

And......

"That's Vittorio."

Atu has unexpectedly dropped a bomb.

"Let's be absolutely sure." At first, I get bumpy. Just as the day of climbing in the sky falls, the water flows from high to low... Vittorio sells me the quarrel with all his might, and I will buy it with all my might. That's the truth, the two of us. ”

Often, talented people have sensibilities that are far removed from ordinary people for a price.

As Atu said, Vittorio was one of them.

If you open your mouth, you can't help but incite others and make them unpleasant.

I'm not sure what I'm thinking, I just give the results. That said, neither the actions nor the statements are careless and inappropriate.

A hero who irritates others by merely being present. That's Vittorio.

“All I ask is that you stop me when I'm about to burst and kill Vittorio. Really, he and I are the worst companions.”

"Eternal Nations" is the number one hero who doesn't want to be his boss, and the number one hero who doesn't want to be his subordinate.

Unfortunately, the hero said he loved to make fun of the sludge...

In order to add thickness to the world view, just by recalling the hero who had made himself magic many times, Atu's heart sank.

”Really... just thinking about it...”

In other words, Atu shuddered in a shiver.

This is the attitude that points to how much Vittorio exists in her.

A girl named Atu is not suited to serve an evil doomed king, but has a childish part.

Therefore, it is not as uncommon as the attitude of revealing emotions, but it has to be said that this exceeded the limit.

Until then, the existence of the sludge Atu seemed to be disgusted by the happy tongue of Vittorio.

"If I could, I wouldn't want to summon that guy." But it was the same brain and ability. I can assure you that there is nothing else but Takudo-sama that can be defeated in a brain fight... that's all. "

The Dark Elves can only shake their heads vertically in response to Atu's fervor.

"Ugh, when I think about it, I'm getting kind of annoyed..."

How much I hate that hero.

The faces on the spot gave an indescribable expression to Atu, who was clearly in a bad mood.

But I hated it so much that I still recognized its power.

If you can understand the hero's greatness, what kind of person is this?

The summoning of a new hero is imminent, with all sorts of emotions, such as interest and anxiety.

A new period of transformation was about to arrive for Minogula.

◇◇◇

The night before the summoning was silent, considering the days that had passed like a storm lately.

Quiet, leisurely time passes, no one disturbs you... just the two of you at night.

Atu stands on the side of Takedou, who looks out at the night view from the window, sitting in a chair and gently looks at the Lord, whom he loves with all his heart.

"If you think about it, maybe this is the first time we've had a quiet time together..."

I haven't heard back.

Takudo's mind was not here, and in fact, his mind was not there.

But Atu kept on spinning his words.

"Takudo-san. I don't think it's really such a good idea, but I'm nostalgic for this situation somewhere." --This is how you two chatted late at night. However, I couldn't reply back then, so I just listened to Takudo-sama's story. "

Once upon a time, Atu's mind was reminded of it.

Before Takudo and Atu came to this world, they were drowned every night in the hospital bed.

Even if it is a one-sided discourse of Takudu, even if it is an action that does not seem insane if it is considered normally.

There was certainly a bond there. And that bond still binds the two of them together.

That's why...

"That's why I'll chat to Takudou-sama this time." until Takudo-sama gets well and can spend time with you as usual..... "

No answer, but Atu believed his thoughts were bound to reach Takudo.

His words reached him. That's why I'm sure your words have arrived.

So he spoke to Takudo, and all this time, until he was lured by the silence of the night and fell asleep.

Atu was immersed in nostalgic memories.
