Kyuuketsu Hime wa Barairo no Yume o Miru

Twenty minutes after the start of the battle with Sphinx...

"And I thought I was going to die..."

Next to Sphinx, who laid down his body with a bug breath, he looked at Joey, who exhaled roughly, with the cold eyes of 'I wish I had died' everyone.

This Sphinx, not as physically resistant as a scab, was anyway a very nasty opponent in a tricky move to freely move vertically, horizontally, and horizontally up and down 3D using wings and beast limbs, making a split with phantoms or hiding himself in a sandstorm.

For that reason, I actively participated in the battle this time - even though it was due to the beneficence of my exorcism with Heavenly Life (Tenkai), I kept letting some extra HP say things and take the tage, and I was thorough with the wall role - so first, Chloe shot through one of the wings with the stick of her will, knocked it off to the floor, and just then Joey stopped moving by slashing one of her legs, putting Fiore's flames on her face and taking her sight, and we all continued to attack and tailor her.

"-Ma, I got a good souvenir as a result. Let's do it by."

That's right, Chloe shakes up the stick to stab Sphinx in the stomach.

Sphinx looked at the tip of it, whether he had noticed it or brought death to himself with inorganic eyes.

"... could you wait, Mr. Chloe"

I raised my right hand and took control, in front of Chloe, who looked surprised, and asked Sphinx.

"Sphinx. Lord of the land. I spare your wise life. [M] So let me ask you, do you want to keep sprinkling your life, or do you want to go further with me?"

"... what? What are you talking about? Who the hell are you?

I immediately equipped my back with "Rosy Luck" "La Vi Ann Rose" - the wings of a fallen angel - and removed the love sword "Sinner of the Rose (Jill de Leye)" from the storage space (inventory) in place of the longscepter "Secret of the Rose (Blue Velvet)" that I had in my hand (because of the importance of hattering).

I saw Joey once before, with a face called Heh.

Chloe, who knows who I am, has a cheeky, albeit unusual face.

Fiore seemed completely incomprehensible, and, uh, peeled his eyes off.

Well, this one decides to explain later.

"Tendai, Kaiyao"

Calling the heavenly life in the body of the submissive demon and the engraving yaw that was waiting for him in the shadow movement.

"- Ha."

The heavenly life in tuxedo appeared unfinished, and at the same time he praised me on my right hand side, while the Dark Knight, Engraved Shining, appeared on my left hand side, respectfully thanked the knight.

I guess even a bug breath can tell the difference in character as a demon, pointing to the breathtaking Sphinx, I protruded the "Sinner of the Rose (Jill de Leye)" self.

"Let's name it again. My name is Scarlet Snow (Hiyuki), who bears the name of the divine ancestor as the Lord of the Crimson Empire, a demonic kingdom that will last forever. Sphinx, let me give you two choices. I swear under this sword to obey, to seek further strength, or to waste my life under this sword."

Towards the flashing Sphinx, ask.

"- How's the response?

………

I meditated, Sphinx I had been thinking about for a while, but slowly squeezed my strength and stood up.

I felt the signs of Chloe behind me showing an alert posture, but seeing that there was no hostility in Sphinx's eyes, neither heaven nor Engraving would move.

"Let's be respectful. My Lord."

Yes, I lowered my head. I stroked my heart down on Sphinx, relaxed my chest.

Good. Good. Because I didn't want to waste my life killing someone I could talk to. Hey.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

A few days later, again invited in the name of the 'meeting before you', King Collard and Levan were passed into a different Scarlet Snow private room the other day, finishing hearing the whole thing over a cup of tea served, and hammering carelessly with 'ha'.

"... so, after that, you returned in the Transition Magic Formation?

Scarlet Snow shook her head "No" today in a thin pink lane dress to a question with King Collard's confirmation.

"Take Hui Night for now. - Oh, that's Sphinx we talked about. I gave it to you because I didn't have a name - and then you and Chloe forgive me for knowing who I am and panicking..."

King Collard with smudges and sympathy, thinking of the heart of the eggs of an unknown adventurer, trying to crush the sawdust liver.

"Joey, if you were on the spot, wasn't he quick to explain?

"Ha, ha. No, King Collard. Do you think Joey can explain it accurately and thoughtfully?"

Thinking for a moment, King Collard shook his head silently, deciding he was no more useful than Kamadouma.

"Oh, and it's Mr. Chloe, but I've got quite a few people who personally admire her. They do, but it looks like you're having a tough time at this point. I'm thinking of pulling it together, creating something like an intelligence/task force and asking you to command it, okay?

"Cres Free Alliance (of which) is no problem. That lady would be quite amazing and comforting."

"The problem is authority and bases everywhere, isn't it? Anyway, it's the emperor's unit. We need to talk to the clerk."

Levan was comfortable and King Collard quickly began to haunt his mind about the structure and operation of the organization.

"Well, I'll take care of that area. - So, I was just about to go home, and I waited since Fai night, but it took me a while."

"- Ha."

"Ha ha..."

Levan didn't seem to pin, but King Collard, a former Adventurer Guild leader, grinned with a starred face.

"Is it a reward treasure"

Levan also noticed that he raised his voice more.

"That sort of thing. When Fai Night presses the pedestal where he was sitting, the bottom shifts and the aisle opens to the next room."

If you think the room is strangely small, there was a hidden room, and Scarlet Snow continues.

"So, it was... the transfer device that led me to Fai Night."

"Are you a metastatic magic team? Not treasure?

"No, there was treasure. Most of them were goldsmiths, golden statues, etc., but not so much."

"I'm sure it would have been a hell of an amount if ordinary people had seen it"

and the two of you secretly imagine in your heart.

"The problem is with the transfer device. Oh, King Collard, it's not the transfer 'magic formation', it's the transfer 'device', so don't get me wrong."

…… How is it different? "

"In the case of magic formations, you can only move between two linked magic formations, but the device can unilaterally move the other without the device. By the way, if all you can send at once is what's in a circle 20 meters in diameter, people, whatever it is. However, the travel points are limited to a certain extent, and so far there are 13 locations across the continent."

King Collard's complexion changed when he understood the meaning of the word.

"Wouldn't it be embarrassing if... you abused something like that!?"

"Right. If that's what you want, it's possible to move troops to other countries. - But, well, I'm not gonna use it for anything other than peaceful use, am I?

"Peaceful use......?

"Yes. This is a distribution revolution in a way, isn't it? This will allow the merchant to take a long journey and not have to struggle with danger and neighbourhood."

King Collard will look like a urchin fell out of his eyes at that word.

Indeed, the current transfer movement can only send one human from the transfer magic formation to the transfer magic formation, so there is also a limited amount of place and luggage that can be held. However, if this were to be able to send more bulk and per package, it would be possible to expect a full profit as a merchant even if he paid a somewhat higher price.

"In that case, Willide with the device - and hence the Free Alliance of Cres itself - would be allowed to be effective as a relay point for trade?

"... it is, indeed"

King Collard also nodded as he swallowed his sawdust and spit.

Levan has also been eating herself up with an exalted face to see if her understanding is catching up.

"But wouldn't other countries risk it?

"I guess it depends on future negotiations around there. So, Levan, good luck."

"Huh? Why me?!"

Levan gives a barbaric voice when suddenly she shakes the responsibility issue.

"No, 'cause, you know, next time you're negotiating with the Prime Minister of the Empire, right? If we don't talk about this in that seat... we'll probably have five locations in Imperial territory to move the device to."

With that said, Scarlet Snow easily shows things by writing the destination of the transfer device on the map of the continent.

"... I see. Is it convenient to say that there are five empires, three in the western realm and none in the Holy King? Most of the rest are small and medium-sized countries, so if we make an agreement with the Empire, most of them will mimic it to the right. - This is a serious responsibility, Representative Levan."

King Collard speaks with some pleasure as he looks at the map he receives via the Capital of Life.

"No, no, don't take it personally to think you're other HR, both of you! There's no way I can negotiate like that!?"

"It's okay, I'm the next Beast King!

"Yeah, I'm sure you can accomplish it!

Well, the two of us put as much pressure on each other as we wanted, wondering which way the office would put it.

Take that seriously and hold your head, Levan.

No one expected this to be the result of throwing a spark into the empire at this point.
