Level 99 First Territorial Management by Adventurers

6. Don't Cloud Standing Bird Trails (front)

I woke up with the dawn. Alcia was cleansing herself in a cage in a fortified bath.

Hot water gushing out day and night flows into the tub, from which boiling hot smoke covers the nakedness of Arsia.

But even in such circumstances, the Archbishop of the Goddess of Death and Magic (Patriarch) can be seen with a sinking expression.

After all, I haven't been able to talk to Valtrude since. I've already cloud-sprayed my anger and other things back then, but I couldn't help but apologize.

Think about it, I shouldn't have. No words exchanged, I spent last night in a different bedroom, and it stays that way.

With an unconscious sigh, Arcia flushes the water drawn into the barrel from her shoulders. It's a sight that seems to tremble unexpectedly just watching, but purifies itself without changing one expression.

The droplets slipped off his ball-like skin.

The luminous, tense skin that plays water is only allowed by one man. Previously, and always will.

Neither could he be consulted. Because I felt so sorry for you.

I know Valtrude doesn't care.

So what frightens me is my own problems.

To the extent that she was able to self-analyze, Alcia was calm.

But I don't even know what to do. Anyway, no matter how much I retraced my memory, I never roughed up Valtrude's voice against him.

I mean, I have no experience fighting, making up.

(It was sweet, I guess...)

Not to anyone else. Alcia was sweet on Valtrude. The more I realized now, the more commonplace that was.

Arcia sprinkles the water from her shoulder again and slowly rises.

I shook my head at the same time and got rid of such clutter.

Now, there's something else to do. Goddess of Death and Sorcery Truss-Sink has given me a more sacred one, and I must grasp the situation of Li Kutua at all. That's why I was cleansing myself.

Although part of his body is hidden with long wet feathery hair, Arcia's appearance was one piece of art. At the same time that everyone wants to keep it decorated, they must want to keep it a secret if they don't want to show it to anyone.

That would be no exception, not even for Yut.

However, she did not pay attention to her own beauty, and when she wiped her body using towels - objects that Yut was bringing in large quantities from Earth - she changed into sacrificial clothing at a rate that could not be described as elegant.

A black robe down to the foot of the usual. On top of that, he raises from his neck the holy mark of silver wrapped around a pale yellow coat of law. I don't carry crimson eyelids anymore.

I had recently been charged by Akane with post-bath skin care, but I'll skip it because she's not here. You may get angry later, but it's an expedition to Li Kutua the day after tomorrow. There will be no breaking.

Return

Refreshingly cleansed, Alcia activated a divine spell that allowed her to travel instantaneously only to a number of registered strongholds while her body was covered in dust and mustard.

Moved ahead is the tomb of the goddess of death and sorcery, on the pedestal of God.

A harsh space, illuminated by countless sparkles.

The pitch-black temple is more than 100 meters long and the ceiling is also high enough for giants to get in.

In a place like that, there's one Alcia.

It's also because I was paying people in advance, or simply because of the time it takes.

A spiritual temple with little or no decoration, with no religious facilities.

Alcia moves along with her steps toward the red tower, which reaches its deepest point - the ceiling.

On its side, there is nowhere to worry about earlier.

Clear and elegant. When I heard about the priesthood, the ideal figure that everyone could think of was there.

"O queen of sorcery, merciful who comforts the souls of the dead. Light up my path and our path with great wisdom."

Speak the Holy Word, and Arsia kneels on the Red Tower.

Mostly, unconscious behavior. In an instant he entered a state of meditation, and his boundaries became blurred.

The presence of matter is rapidly becoming farther away and the world's appearance is changing.

The earth and the atmosphere become thinner in existence, and the world empties.

The feeling that matter is replacing concepts.

On the other hand, great beings feel stronger and closer.

The emotions of joy penetrated his entire body, and the deepest part of Alcia struck and trembled with emotion.

A sincere prayer reaches God.

And then the dialogue began.

- Is Wado Renka evil?

Arsian consciousness asks.

- No.

God - the response from Truss-Sink is short.

Not that it's awesome...... God's will is so profound and immense that no one, no matter how Arsian, can take all of it.

Alcia keeps asking short questions

- Is Wado Lenka doing evil?

- Ken.

- Will the presence of Wado Renka be a disaster for Li Kutua?

- Ken, but not for all residents.

Is the part of the annotation because of the difference in values in the individual?

Some human beings must think that it is better to be peaceful even if their self-consciousness is restricted than in times of war. Still, it was clear to the majority of humans that the hegemony of Wado Renka was unwelcome.

Persuasion or exercising strength? Either was undecided and originally intended, but now the policy of stopping Wado Renka has been finalised.

- Was Wado Renka using people's jewels due to formal procedures?

- No.

- Has Wado Lenka already taken the jewels of heaven as his possession?

- Ken.

Arcia next asks Truss-Sink God about another concern.

- Is Ray Cruz in Li Kutua?

- Ken.

- Is there a change in the purpose of Ray Cruz?

- No.

- Is it in Ray Cruz's interest to cooperate in Wado Renka's hegemony?

- No.

- Is Ray Cruz's cooperation in Wado Renka's interest?

- Ken.

Ray Cruz is in Li Kutua.

And revenge - taking back Sword Princess Suigil - hasn't changed.

Yet what does what Ray Cruz is doing mean that it benefits Wado Renka only?

- Is Ray Cruz in Li Kutua for his purpose?

- Ken.

- Will Ray Cruz's interests clash with ours?

- Ken.

After all, Ray Cruz and Wadow Renka don't seem to be in a full cooperative relationship.

Is there a gap that goes in there?

It's the role of Yut to think about it.

At that moment when I tried to convey my heartfelt gratitude to Truss-Sink God and return to reality, my thoughts are conveyed like fluctuations.

"-Come on."

Unexpectedly, Arcia took a breath.

Consciousness has returned to the graveyard of the goddess of death and sorcery, but we have not yet been able to chew whether this is reality or not.

Because the last thought was ridden with emotions as if the mother were worried about her child.

"... a word of apology will do."

Dyed her cheeks with shame that she had even let Truss-Sink God care, Alcia used the "Return" spell again and returned to the castle fortress.

"Hmm. Li Kutua."

Independent of the situation in Li Kutua, the festival of Istas continues.

Therefore, early in the morning, the great sage Vainamarinen is at the corner of the stall, riding bamboo and beating the noodles.

You must have seen it a few times, but I'm not used to it.

With such a surreal sight in his eyes, Yuut was telling a member of Path Finders about Wadow Renka and Ray Cruz.

Regardless of this situation, it was not unrelated to Valtrude and Arcia, who remained a little obsessed, who passed on the Ray Cruz case to Vainamarinen.

As it was, it was a yut I never thought those two would get along, but I guess there was something overlapping about it.

Eventually, I decided to tell her about the washing.

"In some cases... or we're going to kill each other"

Detailed information is not known until confirmed locally.

Right now, where Alcia is being commissioned, you won't even get clear information.

Still, I didn't think it could be resolved peacefully.

"I don't need your permission. Whatever you want."

"... nothing, I didn't come here to get permission from Jii."

"Huh. Then are you going to restrain me? Growing up, you're a little guy!

"Let it go. The roots are small citizens."

To his lightly discerning embarrassment, Yut shouted even louder. Clear air, less than an hour after dawn, is torn apart by the voice of the old man and the young man arguing.

"Well, there's a situation here, too."

There was certainly a desire to suppress Vainamarinen's behavior by providing information here.

More than that, in his relationship with Ray Cruz, there was also a part in Yuut's chest that had not completely trusted Vainamarinen.

Vainamarinen travels to heaven to meet with Sword Princess Suigil, and competes in conjunction with Ray Cruz for the Great Martial Society.

Also, I don't even know if there is any distrust of the gods, but it's hard to say that I'm close to Zeras, the god of knowledge.

Compared to King Eldrick and Dean Mel, the great sage Vainamarinen seems more empathetic to Ray Cruz.

Worst of all, the hostility between Vainamarinen and the Far East lands was also prepared for Yut.

But that's something I'd like to avoid if I could. Even for the health of my beloved wife and a child I haven't seen yet.

So this is how I try to tie Vainamarinen up until I do something I try.

He didn't say anything.

"You didn't even know you were in Li Kutua?

"There's no way I know anything. That's disgusting."

"As for the dialogue of the Great Sage, I wonder"

The noodling hand did not stop, Vainamarinen discarded.

"But if you ask me, I'll help you."

Depends on what you're talking about.

"Be... I see..."

The feeling was that Yut didn't know either.

Even though I went the wrong way, it doesn't make a difference to friendship. Then it would be a natural emotion to help as much as you can forgive. It's just an imagination, so I didn't put it into words.

(... you knew Ray Cruz, didn't you?

You don't even think you need the help of Vainamarinen.

(Or do you know you won't get help...)

If so, it's pretty dangerous.

That's what I thought, and Yut exhaled like he was out there.

What makes Ray Cruz dangerous is what I knew from the beginning. Now.

"Well, we'll do our best to follow up with Jii."

"Unplug."

That concludes the meeting between the two of you.

Eventually, without facing each other, the two broke up.
