Let's Manage The Tower

(20) Unexpected face to face

"Can I ask you one more question?"

King Ernest said so as he turned his attention to the examiner.

There are two rewards that Kaiseki wanted.

One has been fulfilled, and the other has not yet been achieved.

"Yes, I'll take this."

Kaosuke said so, and brought out a small crystal clear sphere from his pocket, and gave it to the king.

"... Mmm?

King Ernest tilted his head without knowing why.

"Can I have it in your hand?

"Hmm... well, that's fine. Hey."

And the king nodded one by one, and gave instructions unto him that was by his side.

You cannot give a boulder directly to the King.

Because in a world where there are magical objects, we don't know what kind of dangerous objects are given to us.

The examiner also knew that, so he handed over what he had in his closest proximity.

The handed over close associate carefully examined it, but immediately decided it was not dangerous and gave it to the king.

"No problem."

I see. So, what are we gonna do with this?

"Yes, just have it."

Hmm?

The King leans to his neck without knowing why.

The people around him are wary of hiding something, even though safety has been confirmed.

Less than a few seconds after King Ernest acquired it, the situation changed.

Instead of the room you should have been in, it turned into a white space with nothing at all.

Only Kaosuke and King Ernest were there.

He was King Ernest, who insisted that he trusted him too much, but he asked Kaiseki without changing his expression.

"What are you going to do?

The other student nodded one by one under the king's gaze.

"Well, I know you're worried, but please wait a little longer. They should be here soon."

"What?

It was King Ernest who leaned his neck, but soon understood what Kaiseki meant.

There was a woman who was supposed to have never been in the opposite position between examinations.

The woman is wearing a luxurious costume even from King Ernest's point of view.

It was a costume that made me realize at first glance that I was a noble person.

The woman looked at King Ernest for a moment and then smiled at Kaiseki.

"It's unusual. What the hell is going on?

"Floria, I'm sorry. Were you at a party or something?

"Don't worry about it. No one cares if we stay away for a little while."

"Good."

Yes, the woman who showed up was Florian.

He temporarily called King Ernest and Floria into the space created by Kaiseki.

Of course, it was the clear sphere that inspired King Ernest.

King Ernest was thinking about what was going on as he watched the two people talking to him.

Looking at King Ernest, he looked like he was in some trouble.

"Don't be so vigilant. I'm not going to hurt you."

Floria laughed as she looked at the assistant student who said that.

"I don't think it's a good idea to say that. You'll be vigilant if you bring me to a place like this other than mine. I think it would be better if we introduced it sooner."

I see. King Ernest, this is Queen Florian of the Kingdom of Lazeqamamia. Floria, this is King Ernest of the Kingdom of Tausen. "

It's been a long time since I've seen you in person.

Florian, who was supposed to do the research, lightly lowered his head to King Ernest.

King Ernest, on the other hand, didn't get rid of his dazed expression.

"... Queen Floria?

Certainly, the woman in front of you seems to have that much transcript.

The appearance of her wearing a luxurious dress remained the same as the characteristic she had heard rumors about.

But I still didn't try to admit it in my head.

For some reason, I was in my own castle.

I can't face the queen of the kingdom of Lazeqamamia, a country from another continent.

Having read King Ernest's thoughts, Floria shook her head around with a few complaints.

"King Ernest. I don't know how you don't want to believe me, but I can't help but be surprised at everything that the human gods do.

King Ernest, who heard the words of Florian, opened his eyes and looked at Kaiseki.

And he murmured his name in his mouth.

"Kou... Kouske... Is that what this is all about?"

I finally understood the look that King Ernest was convinced of.

At the same time, he made complicated expressions such as respect and awe for the examiner.

King Ernest made such an apologetic look on his face.

"Forgive me for being a little aggressive. It was an opportunity to make a corner."

King Ernest, whose expression was slightly stiffer when Kaosuke said so, showed a way to take a deep breath once.

"Is he... is he really God?

It was Florian who responded to the words of King Ernest.

"King Ernest. It's wrong to apply the traditional gods to Kowske."

Floria said that, laughing with a smile.

Then he turned into a real face and continued.

"But I'm sure it's God. You should be careful, because the two of you who are beside you will not forgive you if you misbehave."

On Floria's advice, King Ernest remembered the two beautiful women who were beside him.

At the same time, I understood what those two were like.

"... Queen Floria, thank you for your advice."

"What? If I don't tell you right, there might be more coming."

I see.

King Ernest nodded with a very convincing expression to Florian's story.

It was Kaiseki who looked at the interaction between the two with a subtle expression, but turned to Floria.

"Did you bring what you said?

"Of course."

As King Ernest leaned his neck, Florian took something out of the bag he had in his hand.

It looks almost the same as the transparent sphere Kaiseki gave King Ernest earlier.

However, the sphere was attached to something like a pedestal.

"... what is this?

King Ernest, who was handed it directly from Floria, leaned his neck and took possession of magic objects and thoughts.

"Were you listening to the rumors? It's a communication device I'm giving to someone close to me."

King Ernest, who heard it, stared at the magic and its communications equipment.

As Florian says, it has already been rumored in the upper echelons of countries that the Royal family of Razek Amamiya is handing over their proprietary communications equipment to a nearby presence.

The communication equipment was very expensive, but it was excellent that it could be used repeatedly, unlike conventional equipment.

It was a bloody substitute for getting the communication equipment somehow in various countries.

Is this it?

"Yes, I came all the way here to give it to you."

I wanted King Ernest to have direct communication with Razek Amamiya.

For this reason, I decided to have them come to places like this, albeit with a little force.

"At the time the King acquired it, the owner information was registered. Nobody but you can use it anymore."

Hmm.

King Ernest nodded with a mysterious expression to explain the study aid.

For King Ernest, this communication device will be very grateful.

Anyway, you can have a conversation with the top of Razek Amamiya without any extra filters.

We still do not know what effect that will have on the Kingdom of Tausen.

But King Ernest was sure that it would have some impact.
