Legend

Ciance Kutais. It is a person who is both a deputy of Theorem and a right-hand man who can be relied upon.

You're surprised that such a person suddenly showed up, Theorem's surprise voice echoes around you.

"Oh, was it still Master Theorem? I wondered if that was true when it looked slight from afar."

Ciance squeaks, not showing how surprised he is by the words.

The Rays only relieved themselves of the tension a little bit over such a cyanism.

As far as the two of us are concerned, it's because we decided they weren't our enemies.

Still, I guess it's only because I'm still an escort that I'm not completely distracted from.

"Dear Theorem, I have a lot of plans and..."

Though it doesn't seem like an appointment. I know that's what you tried to tell me, but when Ray and Seto show up in the shadow of the carriage, hidden in a less conspicuous way than Theorem and Vihera, the words of Cyans get clogged.

That would be so. It is an adventurer on a griffon in front of him, and only one Cyans knows such a person.

The man who caused the defeat of the Bestian Imperial Army in the spring war about six months ago.

Still, around erasing his surprise look in seconds, he was manifesting the calm of cyanism.

He shifts his gaze to the side as it is, and kneels in haste when the person behind him shows up so that Theorem can shelter him.

"This, Your Highness. It's been a while. It looks as beautiful as ever, above all."

"Ciance, you're no different."

"Of course. The unforgettable imitation of His Royal Highness's help before..."

"You don't have to worry about anything."

Vihera sighs unexpectedly on a horse.

But eventually I keep on saying things like I'm getting back on my mind.

"Stand up more than that. You can't do that forever."

"... excuse me. So, Your Highness."

"You know, I've already run, Your Highness, so stop it."

"But more than still in the royal family..."

Ciance with a slightly dissatisfied look at Vihera's words.

Vihera realizes that no matter what she does with the way she calls it any more is a waste of time, she changes the way she attacks.

"Look, we're going to be working to help that kid in the Empire, okay? In that, if someone asks you about His Highness or something, you just get the attention you don't need, right?

"That's... I can't say it's not. So, what do you want me to call you?

"Vihera will do. Now I'm not just a second princess, I'm an adventurer's vihella."

It was a cyan with a slight frown on the call, but you understood that you still couldn't help it. Unwilling to snort and open his mouth.

"Then Dear Vihella,"

"Ma, that's fine now. So why did you, the deputy secretary of Theorem, go to the Seremouth Plains? Even if you pick me up, it won't always be convenient for you to meet me."

"Welcome, of course. I was sent to see how things were going because the time that Lady Theorem used to say would not return."

"... oh"

Vihera gives a convincing look to Ciance's words.

Nearby, Ray was equally convinced.

Originally, Ray and Vihera and Theorem were scheduled to leave Goto as soon as they joined. However, as a result of the discussions at Gilm, Dusker will be involved in this case and will be taking a carriage to Goto.

As a result, even after Vihela and Theorem joined Ray, they were to wait in Goto for a short time, which was the current situation without being able to inform the Bestian Empire side of that time.

(Still, it would have been roughly the only time the Vihelas would have gone back over there than without the means of communication like a pair of orbs.... No, I picked you up simply because you didn't come back after that rough time...?

I guess the inner question of such a ray was the same for the others. Theorem, who was listening to Vihera and Ciance, opens his mouth.

"Something else happened?

……

To Theorem's words, Ciance turns his gaze to Chirali and the carriage, to the knight of the escort and, above all, to Ray, who is spanning Seto.

I guess you understood what you were wary of in such a circumstance. Theorem nods small without changing his expression.

"No problem. These are the hands of Uncle Larks. And Uncle Larks is going to be able to help us with this."

"Are you sure?

The inquiry contains several meanings.

Can I borrow the hands of nobles from other countries, the matter of resentment in the war, the numerous disturbances that are expected to accompany them within the Bestian Empire?

But Theorem nods when it's not a problem... and turns his gaze to one of the carriages.

Then the carriage door opens as if waiting for it, and the elk shows up.

"The Axe of Thunder God!?

I guess it was unexpected even for cyans to this. That expression, usually calm and sedentary, opens to surprise.

And the next thing I saw was Dasker, Larks Borderline Uncle, who had just come out of Theorem's mouth.

"Dear Theorem...?

It was cyans telling me they wanted me to explain, but before that, Dusker, the central figure in the topic, opens his mouth.

"You can move around when it comes to explanations. I need to earn some distance now anyway. The horses will take over here, so the two of you, Lord Vihella and Flash, can talk in that carriage over there."

Indeed, the word was also a fact, something we could agree with even for the cyans who had come so far to pick up Theorem and Vihera.

"Okay, then let's turn back immediately."

Tell him so, and as soon as you give him a signal, he will turn to the direction he has come.

The man in Dusker's carriage was secretly impressed with his skill.

He says it's quite a bit about your technology.

I guess that's the same for the carriage Ciance was in. Exchange your gaze with the owner of the Dusker carriage and send a praiseworthy gaze to each other.

As your people interact silently with each other in that way, Vihera and Theorem board the carriage by depositing the horse they have been riding with the escort knight of Dusker.

Having confirmed that, Dusker heads to the Bestian Empire, announcing his departure.

One new line of Dusker with one more carriage. In that increased carriage, Ciance and Theorem begin to talk about exchanging information with each other as quickly as possible.

"First of all, Master Theorem, you seem to have returned safely."

"Well, I'm glad you're home safe."

Behind Theorem's brain, which squeaks and squeaks, is a battle against the elk that took place at midnight.

Though the result of his own plot, it was unexpectedly a good point that he would turn such a man against his enemies to fight from the front.

I managed to take a life in that fight, but I'm not sure I can do it when they tell me to do the same thing again. Because it was so much a paper battle.

I know you didn't understand Theorem's mood like that, but Ciance speaks of what he was most concerned about in the current situation.

"So, Master Theorem, how did you get that deep red on your side? Honestly, I'm filled with the thought that all that deep red that devastated the Bestian Empire in the Spring War..."

It has only been about six months since the end of the war ahead. I hear that soldiers, knights, mercenaries, etc. who participated in the war saw with their eyes a tornado of fire that only seemed to be a disaster created directly by Ray, and that many suffer from nightmares.

I didn't think the person who did all that damage would give us a hand.

To such a meaning inquiry, Theorem rarely turns his gaze to Vihera sitting next to him with a bitter grin.

"Ask Master Vihera more about that than I do. If I had gone to Egzil based on Vihella's information, Vihella would have already been with Ray."

"Master Vihella?

I guess that word was unexpected for Ciance as well. Slightly, but when I opened my eyes and asked Vihella silently, it was a small grin that came back.

That grin, dyed red with thin cheeks, was understandable even for cyans who were less interested in such emotions.

(Also troublesome......)

Ciance whining inside.

Ray, who created the cause of the defeat in the spring war, and Vihera, which is still highly popular within the Bestian Empire. When the relationship between these two is rumored, I have no idea what kind of disturbance will happen.

Turn your gaze to Chilari and his own boss, Theorem, but when it comes to the person with that gaze, just gently shake his neck sideways.

Even for Theorem, I want the relationship between Vihella and Ray to dissolve if I can. That's what I think, but at the same time I also understood that it was not possible to convince Vihera of that first.

Besides, it is also true that if you think that you may be able to draw the presence of Ray within the Bestian Empire… more precisely into your third prince faction, it is not necessarily a bad choice.

I don't understand all of those Theorem thoughts, but I understand that you have some idea.

Even if I were to hear more about it here, I would decide that if I had any idea of that ray, I wouldn't be able to say it in front of Vihella, and move on.

"So, what role do you put Deep Red in?

"I was going to ask Master Vihella to come out to the fight."

"... I see. Indeed, Deep Red will make people's eyes… especially those who live in the Bestian Empire. As a difficulty, I also feel that there is going to be some noise about the Spring War...... which is fine in the sense of attracting the attention of the other person depending on what you try to think. So, what about Master Vihella?

"Me? I'll act with you. You need a little power now, don't you?

That's what I'll tell you, Vihera.

Of course it is true that you want to help your brother who is under house arrest. But it was also true that he was making his chest jump in the battle against the mighty enemies, just like that, or more.

I guess you understand that. Whatever you say is futile...... and the cyans who decide they won't have to say it just keep the reaction snorting small.

"So Deep Red comes from the final tournament in the form of a recommendation from Larks Borderline Uncle? No, well, still, using the name Deep Red would draw the attention of the upper management more than enough..."

Isn't it a little weak? To the cyans who say so, Theorem shakes his neck sideways with the meaning of denial.

"No, Ray seems to be competing from the qualifying round. Surprisingly cooperative on this one. … although the price is a lot tough."

"... what did they demand?

He's got the strength of Ray, and he's even more of a rank A monster named Griffon.

Furthermore, there are countless contests in the Bestian Empire where people resent themselves.

I don't have to think about it, and I'm pretty sure there's gonna be trouble.

What is the price of such an act? Theorem smiles bitterly and opens his mouth to the words of Cyans who asked so.

"A magic item that should match the lives of those we help…"

"Instead of specifying something, you can choose it here," he said? It's worth saving your life. "

"That's right. I'll leave it to you, so that's what you won't complain about if you give me the cheap potion. … but in that case, we have determined that His Highness's life is only worth as much as a cheap potion"

It is not impossible to resort to such means if we can or cannot do so. But there's no way we can actually imitate that.

"… you'll need to pick a few candidates"

"Oh. I want you to. Think about it here, but I can't say for sure."

We will then proceed with some of the stories and talk about the Third Prince, other forces, or the trends of the nobles who do not belong anywhere.

In the meantime, Fuji shrugs like Ciance came up with.

"What happens when Deep Red enters the fight competition when it comes to escorting Larks Border Uncle?

Try Ciance and I'll be glad that Uncle Larks Borderline... and hence Ray will help us with our own plan. However, if that Larks Border uncle is injured or... still dead, and the Kingdom of Mireana attacks him for that reason, it will be troublesome.

No, I hope you don't mind Ray getting angry before that and creating a tornado of flames like the one he used in the war in the middle of the Empire.

It was a word that came out of that thought, but it was a bitter laugh coming back from my superior officer.

Next to Theorem, Vihera is also grinning.

Most importantly, the grin contained a great deal of envy, unlike Theorem's bitter smile.

"Though I think I saw the thunder god's axe? They're not following me to take part in a martial arts competition, they're following me as an escort to Uncle Larks Borderline. You won't have to worry too much at that point."

Such a voice echoed in the carriage, and Ciance was taken aback.
