A few days after Ritial came to see him, he settled down to a state where his injury recovery was not bad either. So today I was to be called to a dinner party hosted by Prince Washekt.

There are various prerequisites such as thanking Necthar for his crusade and deepening his intimacy, but his primary purpose is to meet the princes face-to-face. I would like to identify who is the enemy firmly here and work out future measures......

"Don't be too uptight, Ilias. If you're alert, it'll be hard to identify the target's vegetables."

"Mm, um..."

He is dressed in the courtesy of Prince Washekt. Even if it just makes one outfit decent, the impression you feel changes with gallery. I just think Master Mix is looking at it with a trance look, but not that far.

"Ugh, I wanted to go to Wolfe too..."

"I didn't have any clothes for subhumans in the beast system. I could have asked Cyra for Taylor."

Serende is a country with many subhumans, but there are few beastly subhumans there, and they are occupied by non-beastly subhumans such as elves and dwarves. It's not like I can wear clothes with a tail Wolfe, but that's not true when it's also a proper courtesy garment for a high-format place.

"Why don't you just put Sir Ratzel's armor on Wolfe and Sir Ratzel wears a dress?

"Think of the height difference, Mix. The outer armor is not the same size as the inner one."

I'm glad he denied it. Wolfe would have made the choice of wearing it if he could go with him, and if it was Master Mix's character, he would really dress me up. I wore the dress during the Tays dinner party, but if it moves with the sword in place, if I catch it at all, the dress is going to break. After all, the flirty clothes are not suitable for combat.

"Wolfe is waiting outside...... If anything happens, make it sound loud."

"I have to hope that doesn't happen."

His escorts are me and Master Mix. Though Master Mix was dressed in a beautiful dress, he heard metal rubbing against each other from the inside of his clothes as he walked. Perhaps they are planting large quantities of dark vessels. I feel complicated about the equipment that the Royal Tays do, but now Master Mix has his escort as his top priority. Let's break it off as honest and reliable.

At the same time as entering the guided hall, the gaze of many participants is directed at us. The same goes for the participants as human beings, but I guess the dark hair and eyes really make them stand out badly. Still, he didn't seem to move, and seemed to discover Prince Washekt as he looked around.

"Not to mention a lot of royal hosts"

"The other princes have ties to the nobles. If we don't prepare these kinds of things, it's gonna break our bones to gather the princes together."

"You mean to make a difference to that collaborator at last? Thank God."

It was someone in the royal family who gave Necthar information about the ruins. But it is believed that the prince himself did not cooperate in the supplies, etc., but that the breathtaking nobility did. If there is that person on this occasion, it would be convenient for him.

Prince Washekt, who is making arrangements in anticipation of these things, I can count very much on him as an ally... but I still have no certainty that he is a complete ally. As far as I'm concerned, I can't make that decision.

"Let's go around introducing your lord appropriately for a while. Let's take a look around and introduce the other princes."

"Oh, that helps. But is that good? Hilmera was looking at us."

"Not good. It's not good. But if you leave your lord alone, you won't be taken out by Yumies. Then we can't match the other princes."

He said he couldn't be taken out... What the hell kind of woman is Princess Yumez? I don't think there's anything like him being fooled by a woman... but I don't know.

"It's not a bad story for a princess to take you home."

"Your friend, I can take it home."

"Yes, excuse me"

Master Mix of boulders also seems to be angry at his petty remarks. I would like you to refrain from following that encounter even with me.

First, he was introduced to the powerful in Serende, the nobles who manage the land and the merchants involved in its distribution. It is the boulders that are behaving in an attempt to revitalize their business with Tayz while putting in exploration.

"What do you say, my friend"

"You don't stink. Even if any of the merchants introduced so far were involved, it feels like they didn't know they were Demons and just made a pale request."

"You think there's no way you're hiding something? No matter how much, it won't be there."

"I know you don't have to tell me, Washect. The merchants are the ones who keep their confidentiality. Even the aristocrats who manage the land squeeze one or two secrets. However, there was no indication that he was keeping the secret from this side."

"You sniffed off having secrets..."

Even though they say it stinks, everyone and he only smells perfume. I know that's not what you mean, but that's all I have feelings for.

"It's just the fourth nobleman I've been introduced to, but apart from this one, it sounds like you should let it in."

"Well, why is that?

"I was taking a price on Ilias and Mix while this one was out of sight. It seems like it could be a product. I'm under the impression you're used to it, and you're involved in the trafficking of human prostitutes?

I did feel my gaze, but I hadn't been able to read it until its intent. Sounds like a rule of thumb to him, but it also means he was in a place where he could see those people. I have heard his origins, but I do not want to go into details. I'm worried about it, but did you see something scary?

"Next time we'll look at the fold and find out"

"And the seventh merchant, if you want to sell me a favour, make me some proper errands and let me go home early. I don't even know why, but I'm probably leaving some kind of feeling at home. Isn't your family sick or weighty and close to giving birth?

"... let's arrange it"

All I can tell you now is that he's in excellent shape. Even if it's not that eye, it's extremely accurate to analyze the person. You're looking for enemies, so I guess it's natural to concentrate, nevertheless.

"You're doing great, my friend"

"If it's not the kind of situation you get attacked all of a sudden, I can focus on observing. Mix, if you're concerned about the weapons you planted rubbing, why don't you fix them in the bathroom or somewhere?

"... Ha. Now for a little flower picking…"

I heard a little noise on the inside of my thigh, but was it still in a bad position? Master Mix left the scene with a slightly red face.

Now he is conscious of Master Mix and me as well. No, I guess this is because Prince Washekt's observations are also combined. That's what makes my nerves so pointed that I don't even take a pull from a master of martial arts. It hides it well enough that you wouldn't notice if you didn't know him normally. But I've seen it so pale before...

As Master Mix returned and proceeded to converse with the nobles and merchants again, a single glossy elf woman appeared. Definitely from that style, I intuit that it must be someone in the royal family.

"Oh, Washect. Isn't that right? Am I right?

"... let me introduce you. The first princess, Princess Yumez. Sister Yumez, this is the star people of Yugra."

The same goes for the vibrant outfit, but the unique atmosphere that the big man is entangled in more than that compresses the skin. Strongly proud to be royal himself and not trying to hide it. So I pushed myself hard too...... and did the analysis like he did.

"You're younger than I thought, aren't you? Bad eye, but a lovely face, huh? What's your name? What are your plans after this?

"I won't reveal my name under any circumstances, but this is about the year."

He tried to show Princess Yumies his age with his fingers, even as he stuffed the distance and approached her, showing her as if she was just a little confused.

"Oh? Mixed blood with elves... isn't it? It's strange that the features don't show up at all. But you're an adult enough, so you don't have to lead that far?

"Sister Yummies. I'm not saying it's bad to flourish as a royalty, but at least I'd like to ask you to stay out of my brother's sight."

"Is it not a bad thing to take an active approach to heterosexuality in public? By letting them know who will receive royal favor, the people below choose how to allocate themselves."

"I'm familiar with it. As a sister and brother, I want you to refrain from losing your appetite."

Prince Washekt's words are mixed with poison by the way, but Princess Yumies is involved as she hugs him in his arms without worrying about that. It smells a little like alcohol, but it feels a little different than being drunk. Should I say I'm drunk on myself one way or the other?

"You found one of my secret detectives. Right. Do you have a deep nostalgia for letting them stay free, or... are you not careful enough?

"I just don't like people around me replacing their faces for a moment. Besides, it's pathetic that anyone who tries to get close enough to hurt their back just gets fired."

"I don't suppose you'll have any trouble knowing. Good, could you tell me more about you?

"If your current case is cleared, even then,"

Aside from the fact that Master Mix is slightly swollen, he doesn't look shaken by Princess Yummies' hue. I guess it's much better compared to the purple demon king...... what about that too.

"Who among us princes was in contact with the Demons... Was it? I can help you as much as I can! 'Cause that's how you get fewer people to compete for the throne alone, right?

"Sister Yummies. You're free to look at me there, but from an objective point of view, I think Sister Yummies is more suspicious than I am."

"Oh? Prince Washekt, more familiar with the ruins than anyone else? You don't have to steal the documents from the ruins to exchange information, do you?

That's what he cared about, too. Only the royal family is free to view the material of each site, but only Prince Washekt can provide information on the site to Nekkhar without the need for the material. If no clear evidence is found, it can most likely be Prince Washekt.

"It's possible. But I could have offered some more beneficial ruins as a cover. I'm not even supposed to bother to introduce you to the ruins on the immediate side of Selende's country."

"Isn't that what every prince is with? No prince is afraid to let his father take care of him. Bottom line, by the way."

"That's above all. It's about being able to challenge with a sense of upliftment."

Had His Majesty and Master Mix had such a conversation, all the knights of Tayz would have been harassed. But for these two, this interaction seems normal, and there is no way to include anger. Strongly speaking, his pioneering expression, sandwiched in between, feels a little good.

"If the novelty Washect were on your side, you wouldn't have a mood or a snag. Then I'll see you again, Yugra's star?

Princess Yumez gently stroked his cheek and left with a glossy grin. It even feels like the ambient temperature has dropped somewhat just because she's gone.

"You the star of Yugra, huh? Looks like you've caught the eye of a troublesome woman."

"Don't let Washekt's novel get you more thankful"

"I kept my throat in order for today. You should be grateful."

And as we proceeded to greet the nobles and merchants for a while, Prince Washekt led us to the corner of the room.

There was one man there. It has a unique atmosphere and its skin is whiter than that of Princess Yumies. No, I guess this should be described as blue-white rather than white. It feels as if you haven't been in the sun for a long time.

"This is Prince Noufsa, the first prince. Brother Noufsa, this is the star people of Yugra"

"... you just seem to be a little good at asking about your complexion, and you're an ordinary husband"

"He's also an ordinary man to ask about his complexion. You're lucky."

Unlike Princess Yumez earlier, Prince Noufsa has a tight gaze at him. I'm not trying to look elegant as a royal, I just have the impression that I'm putting myself through. This is the first prince...? Although Prince Washekt is still more of a prince.

"Washekt, I've seen your face. You don't mind if I leave now, do you? Damn, I wish you'd take me to your room without introducing me on this occasion"

"Brother Noufsa will always decide to stay away. I can feel it sticking my guests in front of the room."

"Hmm...... But, well, it certainly looks unusual. Black hair, black eyes... it's like a black demon king asking inheritance. I didn't know there was such an ominous face up there."

Princess Yumez had affection, but Prince Noufsa can't even feel the dust on it. I hear he's a person who lacks gratitude, but so far... But he doesn't have a bare look to show his unpleasant face, but rather treats him in an easier way than Princess Yumies.

"I don't think you're pointing out the blindness."

"You won't be different from yourself. I'm not going to poke a blade of words at myself. I'm free to cause problems, but it's this way to be chased by the response. It's about making it easier."

"Can I cause problems"

"Make it Yummies, make it Chissante, make it Washekt there, because no one in the royal family honestly reflects to the extent that they hold back the evidence. Personally, it would help if you could give me guidance around Yummies. Every time he comes to show his face, he has to ventilate to get rid of the perfume odor. Every time you open a window, you burn your hands in the day."

I'm not just taking it as an unscrupulous attitude towards him, is that true for everyone? It also seems to me that you are genuinely saying how stupid you are about Princess Yumez.

"I wish I lived underground."

"Try that. In the guise of construction accidents, we can just sink into Chissante and Washekt. Is Chissante buried alive and Washekt around water blaming?"

"If it's an assumption about trying to make Brother Noufsa a deceased, that choice is certainly going to be a choice. But I want to put it on the ruins."

"You ruin fool. That's why I can always push Chissante's chores.... Chi, rumor has it come to a hustle"

There is a man walking on this side before Prince Noufsa turns his gaze. There are several escort-like figures around, and the person in question is a courtesy but carries a sword on his hip.

From the way he walks, he must be the person wearing armor on a daily basis. The creation of the body is also quite successful compared to those around it.

"Ooh! Isn't that Washekt to Brother Noufsa! It is unusual for Brother Noufsa to be in a place like this. Washekt called me, too, dahaha!

"As you can imagine, it's Prince Chissante, the second prince. Brother Chisante, this is the example."

Are you no longer even willing to introduce yourself properly, this prince?

Prince Chisante's intimidation as a royalty has not even beaten Princess Yumies, and he feels some pressure just to be nearby. It's not the only thing that would make a luxurious grin look good on you.

"Oh, that's an example! It's so thin! You'd better work out more! The power won't solve anything, but it will make things impossible!

"If you were dating this muscular idiot, you'd be muscular to the head. I've already done my part. Return."

"Mm, I thought it would be an opportunity to have a drink with Brother Noufsa, but I still don't think Xing can ride in a place like this"

"I prefer private rooms where the candle fire swings quietly, but I even feel the candle fire noisy with you. If you're going to drink different places and different dates, I'm going out with you."

Doesn't that say we'll drink together anymore? No, I know this is a joke about being Prince Noofsa... is this a joke?

Prince Noufsa leaves intact. The same was true when Princess Yumez moved, but a few of the princes were seen moving as they moved. I guess that's their escort. Though I'm not letting you serve as grandiose and nearby as Prince Chissante, your caution as a prince seems to be firm.

"Ai no different, Brother Noufsa is a poet! People of Yugra's stars, do you have the same mouth?

"I wonder if you're very fond of poetry"

"Dahaha! I guess the other princes haven't even thanked you properly anyway, have they? Let me take this opportunity to express my gratitude to Serende on behalf of the Demonic Crusade."

"Ignore your father's position. You're strong with the delegates, brother Chissante"

"I'm sure Father would have appreciated it easily anyway. Thanksgiving doesn't make sense if you deliver it to the other person's ear!

You've never felt so hot and bitter with the knights of Tays on your side who were working out naked in your upper body. But I don't feel like I have a hot windy personality, a back table to blow... would someone like this imitate working hand in hand with the Demons in top secret?

"Already from Princess Hilmera if you want to thank me. Not where I'm staying right now."

"Well, there's Hilmera! I guess he was introduced to Daiwa Washekt, but Washekt seems well educated! Dahaha!"

Prince Chisante laughs as he holds his shoulder. The distance is so close that Princess Yumez can't beat it, but his strength makes his body float. I was worried if I should move as an escort, but there's no hostility, so let's just see how things go here.

"Sometimes, did you have any idea who was cooperating with the Demons? Strong habits. Wouldn't you give me a tail inside?

"Including Prince Chisante, yes"

"Dahaha! I'm proud to say I'm still easy to understand! But, well, with those eyes, you're going to have expectations. At best, you should identify it without attracting any extra problems!

Prince Chissante continues to laugh unwillingly when he says he is suspected too. Can you laugh because it's irrelevant, or because you're extra confident... that didn't make a decision for me.

After Prince Chisante left, there were no events such as this in particular, and the dinner party was successfully concluded. Prince Washekt had not put a bite of meal through his throat, but said he would go to dinner with Princess Hilmera after this. The seemingly unfriendly princes, but I also wanted to keep an eye on the goodness of these two friends in a pure way.

He rendezvous with Wolfe, who was waiting outside, and he arrives on his way home, but he keeps walking silently. I guess I'm going through the analysis by repeating in my head my memories with the princes I met today. We talked in a small voice about getting out of the way.

"But what... you were strong people"

"Right...... right...... But everyone, except Prince Noufsa, had an intimate impression of him. I was wondering if we could settle this matter early if we could get the help of other princes."

"Hey, Ilias. Was that Prince Noufsa saying something really terrible to you?

"It was somewhat rude, but I don't think he cares enough. What's wrong with you?

Wolfe's gaze is directed at him, and his expression is somewhat harsh. Such a face, as if there were a mixture of worry and fear.

"Shit, I'm so grumpy. Maybe he's angry."

"Oh my... Sir Ratzel, it's time!

Master Mix pushed me on the back and went near him. Well, even if Mix didn't tell me, I was going to ask because I was curious.

I feel a little different from him as usual if you ask me. Just a trivial difference, to the extent that it can finally be perceived to be so with the feeling of Wolfe being a subhuman.

"What's up? Was there anything unhappy about that?

"Hmm? Oh. I didn't think it would be a glimmer from the first time I had it with Princess Hilmera, but the other princes still felt it."

"Right...... From what I can tell, I did get the impression that there was something going on back there...... Wolfe said. That you're angry."

"Angry...... well I may have close emotions. I wish I could be so hostile..."

Hostility. Was one of the three princes I met today pointing it at? It is Prince Noufsa who is conceivable, but evil should not have been enough to be called hostility to what was being done.

"Is that Prince Noufsa?

"No, all of them. Prince Noufsa, Prince Chissante, Princess Yumez, all three of them hostile 'me' as a disturber."
