It Is A Different World And Yet I Am Cultivating Monsters

"Um, so what do you mean?

After that, he took a bath and, in one of the rooms in the palace, somehow sat face to face with Singh in a chair and listened to him.

"... when you met me at the royal palace during the day, will you remember the painting that was decorated there? Kyo-san"

So Sin grabs the white robe hem and cuts it out with a slight stain on her cheeks.

It was certainly decorated in the royal palace, that huge painting.

It depicted Sin's mother and young men and women.

I heard that the boy was born with the king of the kingdom, and that the girl was made with another man before being picked up in the main room.

I mean, given that, Sin...

"... I am not a child who draws the blood of the king of this kingdom, but a child who has no connection with a royal family born between the king's side chambers and another man."

Sin confessed so to be ashamed of his existence.

"That's right... But wait a minute. So where did Sin's brother go? No, is it my sister who stopped pretending to be a man? What the hell is going on around here?

I thought about visiting him during the day, but there was also Sin's brother who was there, so I stopped pursuing it deeply.

But things seem to be more complicated than I think, and now that I know one end of the story, I also need to know everything.

Thinking so, he asked Sin to explain the situation, and Sin silenced for a while, but eventually opened his mouth as if he had made up his mind.

"... the first beginning began when my mother became the king's chamber. As I said before, my mother already had me at this time. [M] But if I knew it, I would be taken away from my mother and banished from the royal palace."

"Hmm... that much?!

I suddenly stop listening to it.

In contrast, Sin nodded quietly with a nodded expression.

"I can't help it. It is definitely not a blood line in this country. No, not just my country, but many others. What draws the blood of the king is the royalty, the ruler of the kingdom. Those who do not draw the blood do not deserve it. Much of the world is made up of these noble societies."

The words of Singh reminded me once again of the institution of nobility in different worlds, the absolute priority of its blood.

Fitz mentioned the same thing before.

I also read many novels and stories, and I knew the weight of such systems, but when I saw them, I felt like I couldn't say anything.

With that in mind, I was reminded once again how heretical the reforms made by the Emperor's brave man were, and at the same time, no more.

"So my mother gave birth to me as a son of the king, and declared so to her kings and their subordinates. Afterwards, a brother was born to inherit the king's blood, and I and my brother spent days in the royal palace safely, but one day it happened. The rumor spread that the sister was an unfaithful son who had not inherited the king's blood."

The moment he uttered the word, Singh trembled as if he remembered something.

I looked at it and put my hand on Shin's shoulder, which trembled unexpectedly.

In contrast, Sin opens his eyes slightly surprisingly, but immediately smiles gently and keeps on feeling fine.

"I don't know who the rumors are or where they came from. In the first place, it is still a mystery how we learned about it. But it's not that, it's the rumors that spread. And once that rumor spreads, there can be no way that the brother who draws royal blood, his subordinates, and the nobles who follow it will remain silent. As a matter of course, I was targeted by them... and attacked."

Sin says.

One day, an assassin attacked three sleeping bedrooms.

The assassin was naturally after his sister, who did not draw the king's blood.

Sin is said to have been taken by his mother and to have escaped to the window with his brother.

However, the mother who covered herself from the assassin's weapon that followed her died, and then the assassin's weapon pierced her brother.

Because of the darkness, the assassin could not tell which of them was his sister and brother.

Or were you going to kill all three of them from the beginning?

Either way, the younger brother, who was attacked by the assassin, fell off the balcony. He said he fell into the lake below.

Afterwards, the assassin was captured by the escort who showed up and interrogated him, but he did not say anything about his employer until the end, saying that he had eliminated the unfaithful woman who had filthed the blood of the royal family and her daughter by his own will, and the assassin was judged as the main perpetrator.

"... so Singh, who survived, pretended to be his brother?

"Yes... There was no other option for me to survive that situation."

Sin nodded in response to my question.

When I asked about the situation, I could see why Singh started pretending to be his brother.

First of all, there was no doubt that the enemies present in the royal palace were targeted because Singh did not draw the king's blood.

Then, if the surviving Sin finds out that she is the King's unbleeding sister, she will definitely be targeted again.

To stop it, we must inform the royal family that it was the sister who died during the raid and the brother who survived.

For this reason, Singh would have abandoned being his sister to survive and pretended to be a man as his brother.

Because there was no other way for Singh to survive.

I don't know how prepared and spicy Singh was after losing his beloved mother and brother.

With that in mind, I couldn't prohibit Syn from sympathizing.

"... isn't there anyone who knows that?

"... just one person. At the time, there was a guard guarding my mother. He was kind to me, who didn't draw the king's blood, and even to my mother, who was my concubine. He suggested this method to keep me alive. He was the only one in the royal palace who could be trusted. I still have him beside me as a military adviser."

That's what Sin said and smiled.

Looking at that smile, I feel a little relieved.

Sin is certainly going through a tough time.

But there was still someone who could help me with a little bit of salvation in the process.

When I learned about it, I wanted to help this girl again.

I think I'd rather help than not, so just take off my motto.

Simply want to help Singh.

Even from sympathy, I don't want to lie to you about wanting to save me.

"Sin, I can help you with anything you want. Of course I won't tell anyone about this, don't worry."

Thin slightly dyed her cheeks and somehow turned to me smiling.

"Fu, huh, I don't doubt you. You don't even have to say that now. I've always been able to do something about it, and now you're more focused on solving the monster problem in this country than on me."

That's what makes me look like when I first met you, but now I think it's cute for some reason.

"Yes, yes, I know. Well, then, it'll be early tomorrow. I'm going back to hunting monsters in the desert like today."

That's how he stood up, and Sin stood up to me again, nodding as he stared at me in a gloomy manner.

"... I'm counting on you, Kyo-san"

◇ ◇ ◇

"Oh, my God, it's taking longer than I thought."

That's how Lily, one of the seven heroes alias the Beast Warrior, hurried down from Cobda when she came aboard.

After that, she spoke slowly with her brother and spent time as a brother and sister for the first time in a long time before Lily arrived in the Kingdom of Arabia to chase after Kyo.

It will already be a few days since Kyo came to this country.

Even if she came at this time, it might not be very helpful, but she was still driven by an impulse she didn't understand, and Lily was headed towards the palace where she was supposed to be.

At that time, however, I saw people in front of the palace in a hasty atmosphere.

Soldiers, servants, maids, and other people are on the move.

As soon as she tried to question someone about what had happened, Lily saw someone in front of the palace taking command.

"Is that... Singh?

It was the outsider who summoned Kyo to this country, and his expression was as impatient as ever.

"Sin, what the hell is going on? What the hell is this?

"Mr. Lily!!

Sin looked surprised at Lily when she showed up.

However, in the next moment, Lily would be more stunned by the words that popped out of Singh's mouth.

"My God, Kyo-san... Kyo-san is missing!

"What?!

It was an unprecedented shock to Lily's chest.
