Lead the other world.

2-19 Ange-Lumière

The mock duel between Takumi and Roy ended, and after a while Roy came into the audience with Takumi and a bitter smile on his regrettable face.

"I couldn't have had a single machete, and in the end, I was on the defensive side..."

"No, no, I think Takumi is amazing, too. A normal B-rank adventurer would have finished with his first blow. Besides, it seemed like you were used to interpersonal, and you used to do something?

That's how Morgan, who was sitting in his seat as we talked to each other, took a seat and walked over here.

Then Morgan spoke to Roy about his labor and instructed Roy to take the other Knights back to training before speaking to Takumi.

"I didn't expect you to endure Roy that far. You're a big guy... Whoa, yeah. The Knights said to come to the private room on the top floor alone in Takumi."

I got a little caught up in the word alone, but Takumi replied without daring to ask.

"Okay. Then I'll go."

Takumi asked Walnut and Iris to wait at the Guild liquor store on the lower floor and Takumi headed to the top floor.

- Whoa, whoa.

According to what Morgan told me, the elevator to the top floor was via a reception on the first floor of Arcadia Castle, and Takumi had come to the reception on the first floor where he could not ride without special permission.

(Are you the Knight Commander…. What kind of guy is that? Besides, you know what my identity is when you meet me for the first time? Well, should I ask you directly there...)

Then when Takumi spoke to the receptionist, the receptionist showed him to the elevator when he heard Takumi's name and showed him the adventurer's card.

(This is...)

I felt that the elevator was more upscale than the other elevators in Arcadia Castle.

And the door opened quietly as I rode the elevator and waited for dozens of seconds without a sound.

"This is..."

Takumi, out of the elevator, was unusually quiet and without one sound. He couldn't even feel the signs of a creature, and he felt uncomfortable not being able to specialize.

The top floor has a circular ring of hallways, and the room furthest from the elevator seems to be the private room of the Knights Commander.

Takumi walked to the front of the room, sounding the footsteps for one person in the hallway, knocking on the dreaded door.

"Excuse me. It's Kiryu Takumi."

However, when Takumi frowned without a response from inside, the door opened alone slowly inside without making a sound.

(That's creepy...)

Even with that in mind, Takumi was stepping into the room to be led by something.

(Is that...? I...)

And as Takumi, who stepped into the room, walked down a slightly longer hallway leading to the end of the door at some point, suddenly the mysterious floating sensation struck him and it got dark in front of him and there was no one else on the spot.

- Whoa, whoa.

"... Huh!? Hey!? What?"

Takumi stood in the air for some reason when she realized that there were upset but usually invisible floors in the air to regain her composure.

(I'm sure... is that it?)

I tried to remember when I got here, but Takumi's memories since she came to the top floor were fuzzy for some reason.

And Takumi took a breath when she looked around and noticed that there was some luxurious chair in front of her so that she could turn to one beautiful, transparent table and both sides of it, and a knight in shining armor in silver sat in the back chair.

Then the knight said in a small, laughing, beautiful voice clear to Takumi.

"Please go to this chair. Don't worry, it's an isolated space in the air, so you can normally stand and walk."

"Oh, yes."

Surprised by the knight's voice, but having managed to regain his composure, Takumi sat nervously facing the knight when the knight told him to sit in his chair.

And when he confirmed that Takumi sat down, the knight removed his head armor.

Coming out of under it was the face of a beautiful woman who looked familiar with her salacious, brilliant blonde hair and clear sky blue eyes.

When Takumi was losing her words as seen by the beauty of the woman, the female knight began to introduce herself.

"Here we go, Takumi. I am Angus Lumiere, the head of the Order of the Saints of Astrea."
