Five days later, both the Royal Army and the Demonic Imperial Army led by Olympia arrived in the Empire City as planned. It seems that the people of the Imperial Capital have not been informed of the circumstances, and were puzzled by the fact that the Royal Army came to the Imperial Capital.

Even before that, it would be natural to be vigilant because the Stark nobles are rebelling.

Conversely, Stark soldiers were welcoming the arrival of the Royal Army. We get to the castle. No, the Duke of Stark himself picked us up. It can be seen that being welcomed in this way means that the operation has not yet been broken.

We are now in the castle of the Empire City between sights. Only Olympia was summoned. The people of the kingdom were due to meet again later, but I was confused and entered as an Olympian escort.

"Oh, Lord Olympia. Thank you very much."

"Thank you for welcoming me. What was done to the emperor?

"He's thrown into the dungeons of the castle. I thought I'd execute you later. Looks like you were okay."

"Really? Don't worry, I've told you, including after this."

"After this...?

"Yeah, here's the thing"

Olympia pulled out the sword she lowered to her waist and snapped the Duke's neck in a flowing motion. Leaving the Stark nobles frozen by the sudden events alone, the Royal Army and the soldiers of the Demonic Imperial Demon Commanders began their action.

They won't notice, but the perimeter of the Imperial Capital has already been sealed off by the Royal Army. Later, with one Olympian signal, the men of the Order of Mages went on to kill all the Stark nobles and the soldiers who followed them.

The nobles, who had no idea they were being set up, were captured and killed one after the other, just wandering into a sudden situation and unable to resist.

"Olympia, you......!

You plotted, but you tried to say, but Olympia mocked when she saw the nobility, who was sealed of that statement with the effect of coercion (gear) and was only supposed to move her mouth when she was flabby.

"No, I'm not. Because I originally thought only of the Gran family. Besides, I have no loyalty to the Demon Empire, so I decided to use you."

"Damn, forgive me, I...!

I'm trying to beg for my life from the demon leaders who attack me, but everything is canceled along the way, even if they try to talk about us. From the side, it's a terribly funny sight.

And some of the nobles that were in the castle were seized, and most were slain. It will also be a matter of time before we can occupy the capital, as it means that soldiers are being killed one after the other within the capital.

When I went to the room where the nobles were being captured, there were several nobles there who met in the Olympian mansion. As Olympia enters, everyone is staring at her with their blood-running eyes.

Without such a glance, she comes right next to me, throwing a glance like she looked down on the nobles.

"Your husband, you're doing well"

"Oh, thanks to your cooperation. Thank you."

"I'm glad, I'll do anything for your husband in the future."

Seeing her hugged in my arms as sweet, the aristocrats seemed to be able to swallow the whole situation. However, the effect of the technique prevents me from saying it, and it just stares at me.

She started licking my neck muscles so I could show them to those nobles. Apparently I'm excited because I've seen blood. She also has a fever in her exhaling breath, and I know exactly how she's having a tantrum. Shall I make you crazy once to calm down?

That's when one soldier came into the room. I'm surprised at the sudden intruder, and I pull her away. Seems that made her in a bad mood, too. I seem to be in a hurry and my breath is rising, but did something go wrong?

"... what is it? Report it quickly. You don't want to hear shit, do you?

He seems angry that he was interrupted, throwing cold words at the soldiers who came to report him. Lower voices than usual seemed enough to make the soldier understand her mood, moving her mouth to make a report, but she hasn't spoken well.

"Here... the Emperor, His Majesty..."

"What happened to the Emperor?

"Um... Looks like he escaped from the Imperial capital..."

"What? Duh, what do you mean!?

Olympia raises a bare voice to unexpected events. Sure, the emperor said he was trapped in a dungeon, but why did he get away from such a place?

"Apparently there was a secret passage inside the house... when the watchman noticed, His Majesty the Emperor had already escaped..."

"Why don't you keep an eye on me all the time! Even if you don't know there's a passage for escape, you know as much as you can possibly get away with it by someone's guide!

"You're right..."

"Oh, already, follow the trail! If you go down the aisle, you'll know in which direction you escaped!

"Yes, I understand!

The soldier, who was under barometric pressure by the Olympian sword screen, immediately left the room. It's unlikely we'll be able to catch up from now on. But where he fled, the army was overwhelmed, and pro-emperor nobles like the Everts have been killed by the Dukes of Stark. No longer will the Empire have the strength to resist.

The nobles left it up to the magicians around here, and we headed to their quarters.

There is a hole in the chamber that leads to the back where one person can pass, and it is well understood that the Emperor has escaped from here. Moving to the back, he eventually went outside the Imperial Capital. The entrance and exit were cleverly hidden by rocks, so no one would know there was a passage here.

"From this direction... you must have escaped to Uncle Naylor's border."

The exit here will be in the north direction from the Imperial City. There could be a kingdom soldier if we go elsewhere, so if we're going to run, I guess she'll be right north.

There are fewer Stark aristocrats in the north and vice versa more Duke Everts aristocrats. Most of them were killed, but some nobles did not participate in this march, so I guess the border uncle she mentioned is one of them.

"Does the neighborhood uncle territory have a lot of fighting power?

"No way. There was little aggression from other countries there, so there was little war power allocated. I didn't participate in this march because I had very little fighting power."

"Well, I guess the emperor really had no choice but to escape, knowing that too..."

As soon as she's right, she'll be able to crush the neighborhood. It's just that my job is to occupy the capital. The emperor's captivity is out of his mandate, so he decides to have it done later in the kingdom.

Returning to the entrance to the Imperial capital, it appears that the occupation was already over. As always, the civilians don't seem to understand what's going on, but this one never strikes, so it's like they're standing still for the first time.

That completes the mission. Leaving it to the commander of the Royal Army, I and the other brave men are to return to the King's Capital for the first time.

I thought Olympia would stay here, but she told me she was coming with me.

"What are we going to do about the Magic Leaders? One of these days you'll belong to the kingdom, but there's no way the division chief can go anywhere."

"It's okay. I'm just a surrogate for my father, and I've left the latter to my younger brother, who will be our next generation. I called my brother to the Imperial City for this."

Well, it's true that the next Lord of the Gran family will be her brother, but I feel he was a young man who hasn't even turned twenty yet. Can I leave it to such a guy? I was a little worried, but decided not to care because it wasn't my fault.

"Nevertheless, why bother to come to the King's Capital?

"Of course, trying to get me into your husband's side room..."

"What?"

"Huh?"

I can't recognize her statement well and she makes a foolish sound. She seemed surprised by my reaction, and I've returned the same reaction.

"I don't remember saying a word about that..."

"Oh no, if this operation is over, didn't they tell you to reward me!

"I wouldn't normally interpret putting that in the side chamber..."

What do you mean, I had no idea she thought that. I knew her favors weren't delivered by loyalty alone, but I didn't know she was clouding her eyes enough to think it was about welcoming the reward into the sideroom.

She has the look of the end of the world when she finds out she was rejected in my attitude. I'm going to cry out of my eyes in tears and in earnest. My hand is also hanging on the pattern of the sword if it's not my fault.

"Hey, is there anything else you want reward?

"Then at the very least, you can be a slave, so stay by your side... if that's not even possible, there's no longer any point in living in this world..."

"Wow, okay. I'll leave you as a maid of honor. I can't decide what I want to talk about in the side room."

"Is it true!

He stopped crying in my response and smiled in an instant. I felt somewhat deceived, but I thought I would be responsible for the deception, too, and I decided to force myself to convince myself. Well, as a maid, it won't be a problem.

"Oh, Master Yard, were you here? Alec and the others were looking for you."

When I turned to the voice, Fairis was approaching me. She was also in charge of backward support such as recovery in this fight, so I didn't get to see her very often.

"I'm sorry, is the occupation of the Empire over?

"It seems so. I'm glad there were fewer injuries than I thought."

"Well, speaking of which, what business is it?

"Oh, yes, they're leaving a part of the army and returning to the king's capital, so be prepared for that."

"Oh, I got it."

There's nothing to prepare for, but the Imperial Capital doesn't have enough places to accommodate the Royal Army, so they're leaving soon. Fairis prompted us to go under the Royal Army.

But something catches on. Why did the emperor bother to escape to an ally with no prospect of winning? If I'm in that position, I'll first dive into another safe house until it's almost cold. I can't even talk about the fact that I'm running away.

Unless the emperor is so stupid, there is one possibility. It means there's just something there that can counteract the invasion of the kingdom. It is likely that there were weapons that could secretly hide the division of the Tiger Son or destroy the Royal Army in the Imperial Capital.

But neither Olympia nor Lord Everts reported that the Demon Empire had prepared such objects. I don't even think he retains enough power to scratch those two eyes on the boulder to defeat the Royal Army in the Imperial Capital.

Was the emperor still an idiot when it came to that? Or do you think you're moving with your instincts while you stop thinking about sudden things? Or, I don't think it's possible at this level of the world, but you think someone uses a technique that's just comparable to me.

That much thought, and for now I thought I'd ask Lord Everts to talk to me again, and he said no to Fairis and led me to where Lord Everts was in Olympia.

Lord Everts was multiplied by the rebellion in the Imperial Capital, which meant he was throwing his wife and daughters into the basement of the Gran family. To be used as a show against other nobles in the Empire when the rebellion is over, so that they are not accidentally killed by kingdom soldiers and others.

Upon entering the room, three women approached who noticed that I had come in, but ignored this and approached Lord Everts. He was completely tired of the problems that kept him standing, and he couldn't feel the kind of hegemony he had when he first met him.

"Duke of Everts, I want to hear one thing. The Emperor has headed to the realm of the Naylor Border Uncle, do you have any idea?

"He was not our faction. I don't know what I'm doing either."

I felt tight about the guy returning it in a subtle way and decided to see the information directly in memory browsing (psychometry). He was right, Naylor. There was very little to it. There was just one thing that bothered me.

"Is the Borderline Lord close to where that 'red scale' was... close to the area where the dragons lived, can we see that the dragon killers also had influence, no?

"No, you're right. It was his suggestion to turn the adventurer to Reciana. Looks like some kids had adventurers."

"Then you're counting on the power of the adventurer? But then there are too few boulders… Unless you're an adventurer strong enough to kill dragons…"

"Not a dozen people have named dragon killers in the Demon Empire. More than half of it was done in Reciana too, so only three of us could possibly survive, Adriana, Owan, and Sinclair."

"Right..."

A familiar name came up, but one of them is dead. When that happens, there will be two of us in many of the rest, which is still not enough at all in terms of combat power. But of all the names I've just been told, the other one is just like I heard somewhere.

"... what kind of person is O'Van?

"Come on, I've never seen my face either. As a wizard, he's one of the first to start naming dragon killers. I also hear you have wanderings."

Wanderlust, or that man also said things like there was wanderlust, which makes me more suspicious.

I'm curious, I'll use magic detection. I don't know why I did it, but I thought intuitively.

What I have explored is Elle's demonic prop reaction. It was also recently in a place where I felt Elle's reaction. On second thought, isn't that where the fortress is? Not moving at all since then means you're doing something there until you trick me.

(El, you, what are you doing now?

(... you finally noticed. I was just wondering what I would do if they left me like this)

(Don't slap me for nothing. Just answer what you're doing right now)

(I just finished the first one, so I'm not doing anything right now. I'll pick up a second one later though)

(... Did Van blow you into something?

(Well, he told me a lot, but this is my will)

Again, Van seems like he could be seen as the same person as his adventurer, Auvan. Anyway, now we have to stop El's rampage. He hurried to draw a magic formation and made his way to Elle's waiting fortress with a transfer.
