Legend

Time returns a little, when the Ray and Noise matches are going on. There were a handful of people moving through the Empire.

Originally, Vihela, also the second empress of this empire, and Tiyur, who is intoxicated by that Vihela, and about 10 other knights.

Such a group progresses slowly through the capital.

Because many residents, including tourists in Imperial Capital, go to the arena, people in Imperial Capital are grossly neglected.

Vihela and the others move on through the imperial capital that you can describe as such idle.

Of course being idle doesn't mean there's nobody there. Ningro, some people have decided that going to the arena would be too crowded to watch the game satisfactorily, and such people first swallow saliva irrespective of their beauty and the gear that also looks like whores and dancers, eventually leaning their necks when they look familiar in their faces, remembering who the person is and breathing again.

"Princess Vihella, Your Highness?

To that voice that Potsuri and someone muttered, those around him soon find out that it is inherently the second empress of this country who is at the end of his gaze.

Sometimes it is the royal family of the Bestian Empire - who himself intended to abandon the royal family - that spreads its whimsy, but still does not kill people under Vihela, but above all it was in the atmosphere in which Vihela… and Tiyur and the other knights were developing.

It's not like I'm killing you, but it still doesn't seem like I can get close to the detour, to such an atmosphere.

If I were here, I would have understood if I were an adventurer, a soldier, or someone who makes battles like knights a living thing. He said that's the struggle he's emitting as he hits the fight ahead.

Most of all, I think I might be able to fight a strong opponent just for Vihera.

I understand, of course, that this is an act of house arrest and to save my brother in danger of assassination. Still, what should also be described as Vihella's instinct in favor of combat craves the battle itself.

That fighting instinct, higher than usual, is still ray fighting the noise of the rank s adventurer in the arena... or maybe it's already settled into battle, which would be one of the big reasons.

"Tiyur, Theorem's not a problem, is he?

When I asked Tiyur walking behind me, it was a small voice that came back.

"Yes, we are expected to enter the castle at the behest of those lurking inside, in anticipation of our discovery and noise."

"Double Yang Dynamics, huh. It's a Theorem measure, but isn't it a little too worrying? More than Ray and Noise are fighting the finals in the arena, they're definitely gathering over there, including the nobles."

As for Vihela, if she has a strong enemy who stands in front of her, she can enjoy herself, but at the same time she'll have a lot of trouble helping her brother out. I guess it was also a word that came out of that thought.

But Tiyur waves his head small at the words of Vihera.

"Certainly compared to normal times, the castle will undoubtedly have less fighting power. But if you go into far-fetched behavior, you might have damage to His Highness Merclio. So, if you can, if you can get the troops led by Theorem to help His Highness Merclio."

Mumble that far, and keep saying......

"Regardless of what Vihella or I are doing, if the Third Prince-led Theorem is moving, you will soon know what its purpose is."

"Huh. Well, as far as I'm concerned, if that kid can help me, that's fine."

Mumble, change the story.

"With that said, did you say thunder god's axe child's... rodos or something? What happened to the story about that kid diving into a faction on Brother Kabbazide?

"Theorem's suggestion of double positive motion is also relevant to the matter. Somehow, there is a verse that we half expect to take action on. Well, I didn't expect to take action so soon... but I didn't think it was going to happen in the final of the fight."

While returning so to the words of Vihera, Tiyur finds mercy in Rhodos, who is remembered as Elk's son.

It was Tiyul's expectation that that love would not be the first possibility to bear fruit because it was not even recognised as one man.

Tiyul, who is intoxicated by Vihera, has seen many similar figures before.

Many of them were enchanted by the beauty of Vihera, but they scattered without realizing the thought. And decidedly different than before, Vihera, whom Rhodos is in love with, will be in love with Ray.

(Until then when it comes to horizontal affection... that's pathetic. Although it would be natural to be fascinated by Master Vihella.... Ray, huh? I'd like to see you in person as soon as possible and check it out with these eyes. If you are unworthy of Master Vihella......)

Vihera's words go on so that she doesn't accidentally notice how Tiyur squeaks inside.

"I don't know what stream you got into Brother Kabbazide's faction up there, but I'm surprised you're going to do it. I don't know, like the one who draws the blood of the thunder god's axe."

It was Vihera whining like I was impressed, but if Rodos had known that the only reason for entering the 1st Prince was because of his confrontation with Ray, he probably wouldn't have raised his praise so far.

"... right. I do hear that the guards over there were so tight that they couldn't sneak this one's hand in. If you think about it, you should say you were lucky to be unhappy."

In fact, on several occasions before, Theorem had told Tiyur that he had tried to sneak the third prince into the first prince. But all of them are out of touch, and I've been told they probably won't be alive anymore.

That's why I opened my eyes to surprise when my own hands who were letting me sneak into the castle told me that Rhodos belonged to the 1st Prince.

"So the information you're letting us know from the other side is very helpful"

"I guess."

I don't know what means to use, but preparation as if we perceive ourselves moving. And the information that it's already over but the soul bell will be after Ray.

Both of these surprised me in many ways.

Especially when Ray is attacked - it was after he was already attacked when that report arrived - the look on Vihella's face that could even be described as spectacular remains strongly on Tiyur's impression.

(Most importantly, since our rescue operation infiltrated the 1st Prince in a critical manner, we should assume that we have not been informed of any really important information.... If you could have infiltrated me a little sooner... No, I'm from the Kingdom of Mireana, so I don't think I got important information in the end, do I?)

A line goes down the boulevard while you whine inside too.

Even if there are fewer people today because of the final of the Fighting Games, it is only natural that if they stand out so dignified, they will be able to look out from the few residents.

Keep going with that gaze and naturally there will be more appearances of guards as you take them closer to the castle.

And if there are more guards, as a matter of course, there will be those who will notice the appearance of Vihela, and many who will notice Tiyur following that Vihela.

It was a Tiyur that was not entirely noticeable throughout the city due to the presence of Vihella, but it would not be deluded by it if it were also a guard.

"Oh, man. That... isn't His Royal Highness Vihera?

"Oh. I heard you ran away from the Empire... why are you in the Empire City? Doesn't sound just like you, does it?

"... I do mean that flashy, or if you look at the colourful outfit, that possibility too..."

"That's stupid. Is there someone that looks that way?"

"There's a fighting tournament going on, isn't there? Doesn't that seem... or something?

"Exactly. That's not... Look behind His Highness Vihella. That's Lord Tiyul."

"... are you intoxicated by His Highness Vihella?

"Oh. But that's why I came all the way to the Empire at this time of year?

"Shouldn't you be listening to me for a second? Impossible, but if it was fake..."

"Right, right. I'm sorry I smelled like shit and got scolded up there later."

The three guards consult each other and eventually all three go down the road Vihela...... instead of speaking to Tiyur.

I guess the second princess and I had difficulty speaking up to her.

"Excuse me, Master Tiyur...... so may I?

"Oh. Definitely"

I am not particularly nervous but I answer Tiyul, but there is no way to stop that step.

It must be natural because Vihera, who is at the head of our own, keeps walking without stopping.

It is easy to predict that even if you stop here, perhaps Vihella will proceed without worrying.

Above all, we are here... especially since Vihela, who should have left the country, is in the Imperial Capital, because if it is too late to be known around, it will become a strong shock and spread.

I don't suppose the guards understand that, but keep talking to Tiyur, who keeps putting themselves down and moving on.

"Well, if you're moving forward with Master Tiyur..."

"Sorry, but I can't tell you"

……

Guards accidentally stuck in words to Tiyur, who has answered that lightly.

But we can't say anything more than our superior counterparts say.

"There are hardly any uppermost people in the castle right now, but if you can, after the fight tournament..."

Yes, when I told you. Three of the guards stop the move in the chills that have suddenly struck them.

It was the guards who didn't know what had happened, but when Tiyur silently dropped them off next to themselves who stopped moving, he knew why.

The knights who were walking behind Tiyur. Those knights have a sharp gaze at the guards… that's what they've been looking at as if they're even caged in murder.

He said not to bother the two of us any more.

Knights and guards. Those in charge of the battle and those who keep the peace.

Guards also have combat experience. It must be natural because it is a security guardian of this imperial capital.

But to the knights who work in the battle itself… the number of training fields that have dived was different, especially with the knights directly from Tiyur, who are famous for their elite.

Eventually, the guards shut up and dropped off the knights passing beside themselves, finally exhaling in relief where they could no longer see themselves.

"Ha... that's not funny. That's a knight."

"Ah, oh. Well... I never thought you'd be so amazing."

"Sure. Honestly, I thought it would kill me just to see it. If you're dealing with that, you'd still be better off riding a fight and dealing with some noisy idiots."

"Right. In the first place, if it's really Lord Tiyul's knight, it's clear how we're not the ones who can do it."

"What do we do? Do you want to report it up there?

"Uh... right. Should I report it?"

"Let's do that. It's just hard to move around in this heat."

"Right. Wouldn't criminals imitate moving around in this heat?"

That said, the three guards followed the scene and went to the filling room after the scene in the name of reporting it to their superiors for now.

Without knowing at all that the guards who have left behind are talking like that, the Vihelas head straight for the castle.

New guards and some of them, like knights, show themselves, but ignoring all of them, Vihella leads Tiyur and the knights forward.

So, eventually, what I saw was a huge gate.

It is naturally open for daylight, but before that, the gatekeeper's knight packs it with a halvard.

Even though the season is already autumn, it can be said that it is a rather challenging work environment to think of wearing full plate mails in this hot time equal to midsummer.

If it's normal, a gatekeeper is not the job a knight should do. But this is the capital of the Bestian Empire, the Empire. And in front of you is the castle where the emperor of that Bestian Empire should live.

More than that, even though they were gatekeepers, they couldn't leave them to just soldiers.

The knights of the gatekeepers wait, even if they know who is approaching them, without any particular wolf.

When Vihera arrives in front of the gate in that way, she opens her mouth without being particularly surprised by the way dancers and whores dress.

"Welcome home, Your Highness."

"Yes. Thank you for your hard work. I'm sorry, but I need to go inside for a little while, so let me in, okay?

Tell him so, Vihera trying to get inside.

The knights also let Vihela go through the gate without saying anything in particular.

Naturally. This castle is Vihera's house.

Vihera herself has ruled that she abandoned her royal family, but the emperor, her father, did not acknowledge it. Ning Lo, I am happy to remain in the royal family due to the character and ability of Vihera.

Therefore, it was not a problem for Vihera to enter the castle.

But...

"Viscount Boogle, I'm sorry, but please stop there."

"... what?

Vihela passes by, and Tiyur and the knights that follow him also try to enter the castle, and that is how they can be heard by the knight of the gatekeeper.

"Viscount Boogle is currently charged with riot crimes. I'd like to ask you what's going on, so I'd like you to accompany me."

With that voice, for some reason there should have been only a few knights in front of the gate, as many as 30 of them appeared from the castle, poking cuttings of weapons like Halbad, spears, and long swords at Tiyur.
