It's been a busy day these days. The main reason, of course, is to crack down on criminals jointly with the garrison, but even on days when there is no crackdown, meetings with the Dalsims and the Cattle procurement group that procure various supplies, selected civilian candidates and There are plenty of things to do, such as interviewing adventurers, meeting with each guild, and dealing with visitors.

Despite the haphazard raging days, there are no major problems at the moment and it can be said that he is doing well.

After a long meeting in the morning, I had some free time, so I was playing around in the room, but this is not the case. Let's check with Iris to see what he was interested in.

"Is it a little better?"

Iris in uniform appeared in the room. Of course, this is the illusion that Nanom interferes with his vision. Recently, I let Elys decide whether to use video on a virtual window or AR mode communication, but she seems to prefer AR mode.

"What? Captain?"

"I'm worried about the situation of the royal capital now. Oh, I want to hear the specifics of our rumors."

Iris will let you know if there is any problem, so I'll postpone it, but it's better to know the details.

"Okay, let's call the Serenas."

"Oh, yeah. Please do it."

Soon after, Serena and Sharon came to the room. Iris began reporting when they sat in a chair.

"First of all, there is a vigilance situation. Currently, five drones are stationed over the royal capital and are on guard. At this time, there are no suspicious movements in the Royal Castle and the army."

"Isn't it after all that you were suspicious of the other day's escape?"

"What about that? I don't know for sure, but the inn and the Shining Star squadron are constantly being watched for intelligence."

"... Huh. Is this inn still monitored?"

"Yes, these two are the current monitors."

The whole wall of the room turned into a screen, and an image of a person standing in a position where entry and exit of the inn could be monitored was displayed. Is it about fifty meters in distance? It's a casual gesture that doesn't seem to be monitoring you, so you won't even notice unless you point it out. Indeed, they are definitely intelligence professionals.

Probably those who belonged to that Prime Minister. Well, is it natural to give us surveillance?

"The alert level for these people is set to the highest."

"Do you see the people they contact?"

"Yes. But there is no sign of the stakeholders coming in or out of the castle. Apparently the watchers seem to be, in a sense, an independent organization."

"... I see. I will continue to ask for vigilance."

I won't forgive you if you do anything, but let go unless you do any harm here.

"So, can you tell us about the people of the royal capital?"

"Yes. We, or the captain, are now very recognizable. Nobody knows literally about the royal capital. It seems that Gloria has appeared in the royal capital again."

"That's not so ... well, isn't that bad rumor?"

"Of course. It's a bad hero, not a bad one. Guards have told you they rejected a dragon at a castle, and you've already heard that Gantz has followed a dragon."

That even a hero is seen ... That means that people are afraid of the dragon. Thanks to Gloria.

"What about crackdown on criminals?"

"Initially there were bad rumors about aggressive crackdowns, but they disappeared after the bulletin board was set up, saying that the majority of the royal capital now praise our crackdowns. Would be good too. "

On the screen of the wall, people were watching as they swarmed a bulletin board installed in front of the garrison post. Yes, my suggestion was to post the names, criminal charges, and punishments of the criminals in front of the garrison posts scattered around the royal capital. I spent a lot of time and time investigating, so there is no way not to use it. This kind of bulletin board seems to have never existed before, and it was unexpectedly popular with the people of the royal capital, and the bulletin board was crowded every day.

The lives of most of the royal capital are not easy. Under such circumstances, it was easy to imagine that it would be good for people to be punished for criminals who are committed to crime and living better than themselves. Of course, updating the bulletin board information costs some money, but there's no problem as it can be financed with a small portion of the funds sold.

"What is talked about in the crackdown is where we get the information. It's surprising that we've just arrived in the royal capital knowing information about a criminal organization we shouldn't know. is"

"Well, sure."

"Some criminal organizations are eager to find sources of information, but of course they can't, so it seemed like something like a hunt for an insider at one time."

There is no mass media in this royal capital, so people rely solely on information buyers and sellers to buy core information. The bandits seem to be attacking intelligence agencies for fear of leaking their information.

"Is it an information store ... I was bothering people unexpectedly. What happened?"

"No, most of the bureaucracy in the capital has disappeared all at once. It may be that they have left the capital. Criminal organizations seem to be having a hard time procuring information."

Indeed, it seems like an information store. They will get that information fast and have good connections. Is it your hand to disappear?

"That's a plus for us. It's going to be even better."

With more than 400 pirates already seized, the quota of 500 is likely to be achieved with plenty of time. If this is so popular, let's crack down as long as time permits.

"How are territories received?"

"I'm very interested. It's no secret that we buy and drive carriages, horses, food and supplies. In addition, recruiting craftsmen in the craftsman's guild is a big topic."

An image of the bar on the screen was displayed, and one table on which the six men sat was zoomed in.

"Is it true that you quit the studio and applied for a Shining Star craftsman?"

"Oh, that's true. I decided to go with the whole family."

"Hey, are you okay? That's the" Makai no Daikai "? It's a land where nobles have tried many times and failed?"

"You know, you know? The amount of money you spend is different from your nobles. Rumor has it that you spend all the money you earned with the dragon. I know the story. "

"Certainly, I'm using money that isn't odd for just ordering from our studio .... but ..."

"Because the nobles who have failed so far have licked Jukai. There is no reason to go to Jukai without knowing it. But Lord Corinth is different. You're an active A-rank adventurer at Ganz? A man who knows more than anyone will invest all his fortunes and pioneer.

""surely""

"I'm rumored to be following the dragon.

"Some say there are thousands of pioneers being mobilized. Do you know the conditions for recruiting artisans? The artisans don't seem to need to build a house. All the homes will be provided by Lord Corinth. We can't afford a house where hundreds of craftsmen live without at least a few thousand people. ''

"Is it true ... I guess I'll apply too."

"I hope you should hurry. I just saw the craftsman guild, but I was crowded with the craftsmen who applied."

The video ended when the men stood together and left the bar.

"It seems that craftsmen are likely to come together without any problems."

"The other day, we've heard a lot of disappointment when we announced that we weren't recruiting pioneers.

"Yes, but you have to give priority to thousands of people who follow Clelia."

Initially, the family of 2,000 frontiers who followed Clelia was assumed to be 5,000, but Walter and his estimates were too low. It is said that ordinary people have many children, and Walter is a dozen brothers. I can't imagine that in my hometown. He said that at least four people in one household need to estimate. 2,000 people on the frontiers and 8,000 on a family basis.

Bringing the pioneers from the royal capital may help, but we want to start with a solid system. I don't want to be afraid.

"Yumi told me that as many orphans as possible would gather together," Sharon said.

"Yeah, um, is Yumi a protected orphan? That's great information. Then, when the city is ready, let's recruit big settlers."

"Yes. The Imperial Army must be increased quickly," said Serena.

"Captain, it's about time."

"Oh, it's time now, let's go out."

About an hour ago, the church's bishop arrived, and when it was convenient, he wanted him to come to the church at 13 o'clock. Everyone was outraged at what it was to call a baron, no matter how bishop, but the messengers were so frightened that it was an urgent requirement. Probably the election of the archbishop. He went to church with a chariot provided with Serena, Sharon, and several escorts.

Upon arriving at the church, Sister was waiting and was immediately passed through a room like a drawing room for the nobility. The atmosphere is rushy and nervous. Bishop Gertner came immediately. He looks like he thought.

"Sorry, Corinth, suddenly calling out."

"No, I don't care. Is it something urgent?"

"... No, maybe it's hurry or it's unavoidable to have Sir Corinth come. Did you see the Apostle's dream recently?"

Well, is it a story related to the apostle that you enter from the dream story? Given the look of the bishop's thoughts, is it a situation where the apostle has to appear? The bishop seems unaware of Serena and Sharon by my side.

"Yes, I saw it last night."

"Is it true? When is it? Tell me!"

It seems like I'm just rushing to grab me. There is no doubt in this panic.

"Please calm down. Could you please translate?"

"Oh, sorry. In fact, the appearance of the Apostle in response to my call the other day had a great impact on the church officials. It is natural that it was a little too strong. Cardio Ivo, who seemed to have traveled to a neighboring country, changed his schedule and suddenly stopped by this place. ''

(Iris, Cardinal?)

[It is one level higher than the Archbishop. Luminous number three!]

Oh, that's amazing. For a bishop, it is a priest of the next higher class. I understand why he is in a hurry.

"Are you already at church?"

"Yes. I'm off now in a separate room. I've met me a while ago and talked a lot about the other day."

"So that's it……"

"... Cardinal has already called on a nearby bishop, and the bishops are arriving one after another, and as soon as all the bishops arrive, I will call on the apostle became"

Is this why the bishop has a blue face? The bishop will not be punished for not appearing because he is an angel of God, but he must be in a very bad taste.

"Lord Corinth, what was your dream like?"

"... Unfortunately, I couldn't tell from my dream when I would appear."

"Ahh……"

"Please rest assured. The dream I saw was that the bishop lifted her arms up in the sky like the other day and looked up at the sky and the apostle appeared."

"………… really"

The bishop asked, stunned. With this kind of content, the bishop does not need to pose according to the sound of the bell, which is convenient.

"It's true"

"Oh ... God"

The bishop began kneeling and praying, kneeling in a somewhat complicated manner. I feel like I was just saved. Huh ... My heart hurts as if I was playing with the godly heart of the bishop. The bishop's prayer ended shortly.

"I'm sorry, Lord Corinth, I've forgotten myself too much."

The bishop seems to have noticed the Serenas and is embarrassed.

"I don't mind. I understand it comfortably."

There is a knock, and Sister looks into his face.

"Bishop, you are all together."

"Oh, that's exactly what God wants."

I can hear the bishop muttering so. There is really no better time. The bishop must have God's blessing.

He tried to be rude because he would be busy and was detained to stay with him. Is there something for it? Well, there is no problem because there is no particular business.

The ceremony seems to be taking place. Just like the other day, there is a sermon table in front of the church, and behind it there are tables and chairs like a noble seat. An old white-haired man wearing a high-gall vest and sitting in the center of the guest's seat must have been a cardinal. Me and Serena were guided to the last seat and took a seat.

The square in front of the church is filled with people who are likely to be bishops or church officials. People of the royal capital who have gathered for something are also gathering.

The bishop appeared and began to pray as he rose to the sermon table and kneel down. Church officials who saw it begin to pray in the same way. The drone has already begun circling over the church and is ready.

About three minutes later, the bishop suddenly looked up at the sky and raised his arms in the sky.

"Oh Lord! If you can give us compassion, please show your grace!"

Everyone in the square in front of the church looked up at the sky.

(D-One, now)

[Roger that]

Dee Wan came out of stealth mode, and cheers all at once.

"Ooh" "Apostle!"

Everyone is looking up at the sky while kneeling. Should I give a little service?

(Dee One, spin slowly)

Dee-one slowly starts flying.

"Oh," "Oh, how fun! You're happy!"

The reputation seems quite good.

(Ascend slowly while turning, disappear as before)

[Confirmed]

The drone went up and disappeared. The plaza is quiet, despite being full of people. Everyone seems to be equally impressed and weeping. Cardinal is also one of the tears she is doing, nodding gestures many times. Apparently it worked. The bishops, including the Cardinals, entered the church, and finally we were guided by Sister and returned to the aristocratic drawing room.

Immediately the sister put in the tea and brought in a variety of delicious treats. I'm very sorry, but you want him to wait until the bishop comes. It looks like you'll have to wait quite a bit. Eat even sweets and wait.

"This is a delicious treat!"

Sharon eats sweets that are hardened with sugar that has melted nuts, and the texture is exquisite, as if it were soft and soft.

"It's really good. I've never seen this in the market. Where do you sell it?"

"This cookie is also delicious"

While eating high-quality confectionery that is unlikely to be in a church, three people compare and eat and wait. About an hour later, the bishop came to the drawing room after asking Sister, who was pouring a replacement for tea, about the sweets. It is a big smile unlike the last time.

"Sir Corinth has been waiting for a long time."

"No, I don't care."

"I have been appointed Archbishop"

"Oh! Isn't the meeting to decide the archbishop still ahead?"

"Thanks to the miracle above. I was unanimously selected, including the Cardinal."

"Oh, congratulations!"

"Thank you, thanks again to Lord Corinth."

"No, surely the bishop has God's blessing."

"I hope this helps you with the priest's case the other day."

Was good. The bishop does not seem to have forgotten the priests to send to the territory. It is worth working together.

"Thank you. I was relieved with this."

It can be said that this is almost no obstacle. A great achievement.

"Ah! Speaking of which, Sir Corinth is heading for the territory. If something similar to today happens, what should I do ..."

"Oh, that should be fine for a while."

A drone will be left over the Imperial City to monitor the castle and military situation. It is undecided whether to keep it for a long time, but it is OK for a while.

"... what does that mean?"

dangerous! I answered without thinking carefully about my condition. The appearance of the apostle was to dream.

"Well ... I saw in my dream today I saw some scenes where the bishop prays. I believe it will mean the same as today."

"... Sir Corinth. You are probably ......... no, nothing."

The bishop is a very smart person. The current utterance is fatal, but he seems to be able to stay away from it.

"I will send one priest and five sisters to Sir Corinth's territory."

"Oh, thank you!"

"Of course, we will guarantee their clothing, food and shelter."

"Of course. I'll take responsibility."

"And Sir Corinth wanted an orphan at the orphanage? He didn't seem to be the age he wanted."

Serena and Sharon responded to the words and pricked. Sure, there were only people under the age of twelve. The bishop seems to be the owner of the orphanage and knows the information.

"Well, yes. I wish I had a little older child ..."

"I wish I could tell you. I'll bring you as many people as you want. Do you have any hope?"

"No, it has changed a bit ... and I've run out of money."

"Sir Corinth. Since they were orphans, they can't get a decent job. The majority of them have no choice but to become criminals or prostitutes. You can be a bit humble and tough. It's better to go to the frontiers than to stay in this royal city, and you'll have a much better life. "

… Maybe it is. What's wrong?

"Then, men and women do not matter, but if you have about 100 orphans from the age of 14 to about 20 years old ..."

"Oh, it's helpful to have a wide range of ages. But ... just a hundred? Are you sure you'll bring three hundred craftsmen and their families?"

I can't seem to despise the bishop's information network. You know, of course, that you are not recruiting pioneers.

"... 500 people. That's the best we can do now. It's only kids who can take care of them, and we need to have people to manage them."

"Oh! So, how do children live?"

"I think we'll be working for the craftsmen for a while. Let's guarantee the same life as the craftsmen."

Oh, I told you. However, if it is about 500 people, it should be managed.

"Wonderful! Let's get all the power of the orphanage and church ready!"

The bishop was very satisfied and smiled wide. It will be managed. No, I have to do something.
