Let's Manage The Tower

(7) At Alec's residence

The scholars who returned to Alec's mansion were discussing the matter with proper boundaries.

Of course, Alec is mixed inside.

Leonardo gave me permission to talk to Alec about this.

"So, what does Kowske think?

To Florian, who suddenly heard of it, Kaiseki returned a bitter smile.

Instead of the examiner, Sylvia did something to calm down.

"Floria. I understand your feelings, but first you have to talk to Alec, right?

Alec came into this room to be dragged by Florian, who came back home.

Moreover, if Kouchi suddenly struck a tight line, he knew something had happened and hardened his expression.

Alec is also visiting King Maxim, so I know it's a tough situation.

It's only natural that Florian's thoughts were taken abandoned.

Floria, who apologized briefly to Alec, briefly told him that it was in the castle.

And when he heard of the power in the king's private room, he inclined his neck with a little roar.

"The power to reduce the disease....? Uh-huh. Never heard of it."

Floria looked disappointed, hoping that Alec might be somewhat.

Alec continued further toward the Floria.

"If you had such power in the first place, don't you think you could talk about it when you were a father?

The examiners nodded in agreement with Alec's words.

Alec said "father" to Philip, the former king.

Of course, it is inconceivable that Philip spoke to Maxim alone, but it is hard to imagine that no one noticed him during his well-deserved life of fighting disease.

--And Alec, who had thought about it so far, saw a lot of examinations.

"Don't tell me it's hard for others to notice...?

"What do you think? Sylvia immediately noticed....."

The examiner looked at Sylvia while saying so.

I don't know whether my feelings about these things are as a god or as a general feeling.

Sylvia, who had his eyes turned from the examiner, shook his neck small and left and right before answering.

"What do you think? I feel that the power that was there is something only the priests with special training would notice. I just feel like I've received it."

In addition, Sylvia added that it is possible that only the subject is the king of a country, but that the priests who have been "specially trained" may be watching.

After the words of Sylvia, a single gaze turned towards Alec.

"... hmm. Certainly, it is possible that the Temple's highest-ranking people are entering and exiting... but it is also possible that they are not daring to call it in order to suppress information. It's a subtle thing."

"No, wait. In that case, wouldn't the queen or prince have tilted her neck in the first place?

In the best words of the study aid, the other faces finally realized it.

However, it is not impossible for Alec to think so.

Anyway, it was easy for the examiners to get in and out.

Even if you had invited a high priest, you wouldn't be surprised.

"... I don't know if I can think any more of this. And that's not what matters now, is it?

Floria nodded at Alec's words.

I see. What was the power that was there in the first place? There's something you couldn't talk about there, right?

Here, finally, Florian returned to the Mansion and suddenly returned to what he had said.

Kaiseki replied with a bitter smile to Floria, who was looking at her as not allowing her to escape.

"No, I thought for a moment when I felt the power in that room, but I just thought it might be closer to what Sula used than the sacred laws that people used."

Said Kaiseki, Sylvia and Floria roared with a convincing expression.

That certainly can't be said in that place.

In addition, Alec, who did not know what Sula was, looked at Sylvia's reaction to Florian and said no.

"... Your Majesty thinks Brother Maxim may be using monsters?

"I don't know if it belongs to a monster or a sacred beast. Besides, I just thought it was fuzzy, and I don't know if it suits you.

Kaiseki said so to Alec, but the others took the word seriously.

I've never missed most of my thoughts on examinations in this way.

Indeed, Sylvia and the others see it as a 'myth' as a living god.

However, I was embarrassed to try to make it an exam aid because it sometimes comes off.

After Sylvia and Floria reacted, Alec turned serious and twisted his neck.

"Like a royal subordinate? I've never heard that before."

"Me too. Besides, have you ever been given away any of your family members or their blood relatives?

And the family of the tower, even if they were not the direct lords, would be obedient unto them that followed them.

It is clear from looking at the family members who have been granted assistance.

With such a presence, it would not be strange to keep an eye on the bloodline, not just one generation.

Nevertheless, it is unclear how the generations of the Lord are distinguished.

Did you notice Alec there too? He shook his neck to the left and right.

"That would not be the case. If such a thing existed, it would have told the royal family."

That's true, too.

Even if the family and subordinates have secretly served for generations, it is impossible to be unaware of someone in the royal family.

Alec and Floria have never heard such a story, but it's impossible.

Here, Floria and Alec's gaze turned towards the examiner.

There were no words, but I could immediately guess what they wanted to say.

"I don't even know if there are any monsters other than my family. I don't care if you're close."

If you are a family member, even if you are far away, there are others who will convey their intentions.

However, if you are not a member of your family, you cannot find it in the exam unless it is within a close distance.

If there were such a monster nearby in the first place, Kouhi wouldn't have noticed.

"I checked, but you didn't feel that, did you?

That was confirmed by the examiner, but Kouchi nodded immediately.

If the monsters had mixed up there, Kouhi would have moved.

However, since there was no sign of it at all, I threw away the possibility of examinations from the beginning.

Floria sighed at the exchange between Kaiseki and Kouchi.

"Well, I have no idea. I can't believe there was a passing monster, and I didn't happen to cast magic on him."

"If there's such a coincidence, I'd love to give it to you."

In the words of his beloved daughter (Floria), Alec laughed bitterly.

If that had happened to King Maxim, it wouldn't be strange to talk about it as a beauty story.

The early story is that what Floria just said is impossible.

However, Sylvia was going to ask Floria and Alec some questions.
