Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraitakedo, Nazeka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken (WN)

114. Duke of Rutzbelin Territory

It dawned overnight from the battle with King Walms, the next morning.

"" Factors that grow by malice "? I didn't know something like that existed..."

I made a difficult face for the information brought to me by the former king.

"Malice is for everyone. But this time, it seems to be a substitute for a strong malicious person who turns it into a monster."

"Why did something like that suddenly appear?

"No, not all of a sudden. Remember that guy named Mia Moto?

"Are you sure it's that mia moto that was destroyed jealously by your husband?

Lucia tilted her neck.

"Yes, that mia moto. He was pathetic, but there was room for sympathy. That's in that I was his classmate."

I see, and Lucia nodded.

Lara, Clarissa and Mira also continue.

"Surely if Lord Masatug were in front of us, it would also make sense for those who cannot help but be jealous to come out"

"But Masatug is special, so jealousy itself is pointless"

"Still, people's eyes converge on nature and the Lord. Therefore, the unreasonable must always remain complex to the Lord's greatness."

Right, I agreed.

"I guess I'm like the moon. I look up at the night sky and reach out, but I can't reach it. But people try to admire me. But some people would mistakenly assume that they would reach that month."

"Maybe that's the fate of the Savior who shines in heaven and illuminates people"

Sylvie said sadly.

That makes me realize how difficult it is for me to realize my desire to live in peace inconspicuously and grieve with you.

But it's okay.

"Master Naomi?

I tell Sylvie.

"I'm not alone. You guys are here. That's the difference between the foolish Miyamoto and King Walms, who alone was transformed into a lonely creature."

"Your husband. Yeah, yeah, you're right!

Lucia smiles.

Yes, that's what it ends up like. After all, they had no companions, no people, no charisma to help them when they were cornered, unlike me.

On the contrary, I had everything in my hands. In the end, that leads me to reign and earn respect as king, whereas they have fallen, been chased by people and become worthy of destruction.

Talent, of course, but broad horizons and humility to take advantage of it. That I was motivated to keep learning. If they can do that, like me, so can they... I can't help but pity them that way.

Well, whatever that is, I'll give more thought to the "factors of malice."

"In the future, the powerful enemy may be blocked by the" factors that grow by malice ". You'd better not be alarmed that all the miscellaneous fish like King Walms"

"Yes, be careful.

"Then let's leave. The next destination is the Duke of Lutzberg. According to what I've heard, the country is now contending for the succession of the Grand Virgin."

"Aren't you too swallowed up at this time?

That's what Erin says.

"Maybe this is the time."

I didn't seem to get it, but it's not like I'm sure either. Anyway, you'll see.

We had that conversation and headed to the Duke of Lutzberglyn. I plan to stay there for a few days, get ready again, and leave.

"Is this the Duke of Lutzberglyn?"

"It's a big city."

Lucia said.

"Right. It's a commercial city in Walms and a city full of religious events."

"Dear Naomi, ladies and gentlemen, we are staying here for now, so let's pack up there"

To Sylvie's word, we start moving fast.

And I checked into the inn. We will procure food and other supplies that were running out here and plan to leave in a few days.

and that's when.

Conn and door were knocked.

"That's crazy. Who the hell is it, Master Masatug?

There was no reason to be surprised by Erin.

As a king, I've been proclaiming my parents, but I don't like to stand out. So it was kept a secret that anyone would stop by here.

Because...

"An assassin to the Lord?

Mira tries to pull out her sword,

"Well, wait, you guys. No enemy has the motive to ambush the inn as soon as they arrive. Anyway, if you're going to assault your sleep."

"Yes, indeed. That's the Lord. I'm impressed with your wisdom."

"No, I've never been vigilant. I just haven't even tried to turn off my footsteps since I came into this inn. I don't think he's an assassin."

"! How dare you expand your sensing range so far, Lord!?

"Instantly determine the situation from multiple information. If I could do that, Mira would be able to grow another step."

"Oh, thank you. We will continue to refine! But I don't expect the Lord to be able to train me in places like this, this Mira, is unexpectedly innumerable!

"Nice, Mira. I also want to be all kinds of incensed by Masatugu..."

Dwarf daughter Clarissa looked envious and said as she looked at Mira.

"Phew, Clarissa is keen to study"

"Uh, I'd rather just tell Masatug all about it... hands-on"

I couldn't measure what that meant, but it's a good thing I'm keen to study anyway.

Clarissa looked really happy when I stroked her, blushing and smiling. It's sloppy from around! or something, but I'm not sure why.

Maybe I did something unconsciously again...

Well, more than that, yeah.

"Welcome aboard, King Masatug. I've heard about your success and I can't be happier!

It was the Duke of Lutzberlin, the man, who opened the door and suddenly came bowing his head in a flat face.

"Was it still the Duke himself? I didn't expect you to come from me to a place like this... and cut off one offering."

Behind the Duke stood a woman swordsman. It was a Japanese-style outfit.

"What are you talking about! First of all, thank you. I'm sorry!

"Thank you?"

I tilt my neck not sure what the Duke meant by his words.

But again, the Duke looked at me like a most salutation, and he bowed his head deeply over and over again.

"Protect this country and this Duke from the great army of demons. Thank you. On behalf of the people as Duke..., no, I thank you on behalf of the people of this world. It is thanks to the Holy King Masatug that this world still exists!

That's what he said, turning his gratitude and respect toward me so hot and painful.
