Let's Manage The Tower

"Who are you?

Alec, who had a laugh, asked the examiner.

"... no matter what they say... the tower keeper?

In response, Alec shook his head.

"That's not what this is about. At least I don't think anyone in Ichii thinks that way.

In the world of Earthgard, there are no educational institutions such as schools.

If you are a nobleman or royal family, you may hire a tutor to study your studies, but people of ordinary status rarely get an education in the first place.

If anything, when I joined an apprentice when I took up a position.

Otherwise, you'll learn how to earn money in practice.

However, what Kaiseki said earlier is a word that doesn't come out unless you have some education.

And if you are a member of a noble or royal family, it cannot be a rumor.

If nobles and royalties invade the tower, it will bring tremendous benefits to the family.

It is normal to think that it will be announced at the time of the attack.

However, such a story has not reached Alec, the royal family.

Even if it was from another continent.

Alec is staring at the examiner and waiting for an answer.

While realizing Alec, he replied lightly.

"I'm not a big deal. It's just that I was educated early."

"... what?

Unexpectedly, Alec was taken aback.

And before I could question it, I was asked more unexpectedly.

"Oh, you don't have a myth about that?

Alec's mouth opened as if stunned.

I could only moan with unprecedented surprise.

"... how do you know?

He leaned his neck to Alec, who heard him roaring.

"You mean the gods?

Anything else, Alec returns it with his gaze.

"I didn't know you were a god. I just heard that God is moving behind us."

"... what!? Who told you that?

Alec is coming to this tower through various routes.

Of course, to hide his identity as a prince.

It was the same with people from home.

Only a handful of people know that Alec is here because of his divinity.

If the information leaks from these people, it's not a big problem...

"Oh, no. Maybe you're mistaken. I didn't hear anything from anyone in your country."

"... then how did you know?

"Isn't God a pillar in this world?

Alec quickly understood what Kaiseki meant by the words of Kaiseki.

And that's why I had to hold my head unexpectedly.

I was made to understand that being out of common sense is something like this.

"What do you mean, you've also been consecrated...?

"If that's a god, then so be it."

Alec frowned at the subtle rhetoric of the examiner.

"What do you mean?

"No, I asked you if there was a God behind you, and you answered me normally."

Alec finally laughed at the fact that he was told to be rusty.

In the first place, God is not an easy thing to accept.

Even if he is a high priest.

Historically, however, many people have been identified who can receive the mystery frequently.

They were believed to be blessed with the protection of their gods.

And therefore it was usual for those whom God had granted protection to be used among power.

Sometimes it develops into national strife or is used for the authority of the temple.

Therefore, in recent years, it has become mainstream to conceal it as much as possible, even if it turns out that it has been given protection.

Unfortunately, most of them will be discovered in the process if they are born in Ichii, but in such cases they can be deposited in a shrine or arranged between countries.

However, when this becomes the status of a nobleman or royalty, it becomes slightly different.

Hidden from appearing on the stage as much as possible.

Except, of course, if the person wanted to, but basically, no one with the protection would come to the front stage.

It will be done at the expense of the state.

The reason is simple, and it is a national reason to try to incorporate it in your own country as much as possible.

Another reason is that if the protectors were aristocracy or royalty, they would not be treated in many countries or shrines like the people of Ichii.

This could lead to a disruption of the balance of power in the country and surrounding countries.

A nobleman on the verge of falling would certainly have an impact if he were a nobleman with certain superior powers.

Rather, if such an incident had occurred in the past and something to protect the nobility and royalty had been born, it would have been concealed.

"... does that mean your daughter has protection?

That's what it's gonna be like.

Alec quickly began to talk about his situation because he trusted someone who had been entrusted with the study.

"... from what I heard earlier, I don't think it would be good for the royal family to have protection if the neighboring countries found out?

Alec nodded loudly to the question of the examiner.

"Oh, that's not bad. Now that it's been passed on to the neighboring countries, it's almost filled with just a proposal."

It is the residence of the prince who has the right of inheritance.

The size of the room was, as far as I could deduce.

"If that's all, it's been a bit awkward lately. Even the army feels like it's going to move if I succeed."

In Alec's words, Kaiseki sighed.

"Is this going to happen?"

"Oh, well, I don't know how you feel. If a royal family is born that can be consecrated by another nation, it may be possible to do so."

It is enough to attack another country in the name of God.

When God actually intervenes in the war, it is the state that thinks.

And based on those thoughts, there are disputes that actually started with such things in the past.

"Fortunately, my country is so powerful that it won't be an instant war."

Nevertheless, Alec went on to say that it would be a matter of time if we continued with the current situation.

If you talk to Shuzuishi so far, you'll see why Alec came all the way to cover his identity and interview his deputy.

"... in short, do you want the princess to be hidden in this tower?

"I'm glad you're here."

As Kaiseki said earlier, it is almost impossible to attack the tower militarily.

That's why you dress like a hideout (?) It will be a place. Even if the tower had a princess and the nations had found out.

Alec laughed and replied that he understood them.

"... I understand the story, but as for me, I still can't accept you as the third prince?

"I know. No way, I didn't expect that to happen without status. I'm here because I'm going to throw away my prince's identity."

"... eh!?

Looking at the study aid in surprise, Alec replied with a smile.

"What, isn't that the one who made those conditions in the first place?

No, that's true...

I didn't think I'd finally get a job as a deputy where I was about to become a city until I gave up being a prince.

"For me, princes are more important to my daughter than who she is. Fortunately, the current kingdom of Flores is not in trouble with a successor candidate. It won't matter where I left off."

It was Alec who suggested a waiver of inheritance.

And the trouble was, it didn't look like a joke to the examiner.
