Hearing the words, as if time had stopped, Silvard and Warren stiff.

Then it was Silvado who moved first.

"... to a war that would involve the whole continent, that means of assassination. I don't want to believe it, but it's a natural and convincing story."

Silvard said so and saw Warren next door.

"Oh, yeah... Right, I don't have the ingredients to be sure, but I was wondering if hypothesis would suffice."

Then Warren answered this in a troubled manner.

Let's think back to the disturbances of the past.

The Red Fox used the Demon King to spark a war involving the entire continent.

The matter and the current story of Heim. If you light this up, the method is creepingly similar.

I told you, the stage just changed from Ishtarika to Heim.

But always, I don't understand the purpose.

Sometimes it's spoken of as enjoyability, but that's not a fact Ain checked for himself, it's just like an old story.

If it would cause these disturbances because it was truly enjoyable, imagine that there would still be another thought, then the inexplicable feelings were on the increase.

That said... I can't hit anything with the status quo.

"Grandpa. What do we do best if their presence is hidden?

"It is decided. We should destroy it if we have to, but somehow it's a bad place."

"... Your Majesty is right. If this is what happened in Ishtal, the continent, it is easy to act even as we are. But when it comes to other countries, it's harder to act."

Even if the killer is a Red Fox or Red Fox associate, there is no information on where he is.

And we're talking about another continent, a region that struggles to find out.

As it stands, whatever you think is unrealistic.

"That's ridiculous. I felt like I was getting closer to certainty, but now I can't believe I can do anything"

"Ain, that feeling is the same for us. We should wait for more information now."

In my mind, I feel like I want to go and find out.

But I can't do that. Unlike what was said within Ishtarika, Ain's identity would not allow it if he were to cross the ocean and conduct investigations outside the country.

Ein also understood that it was a different story from previous investigations.

"I'm not going to ask Ein to move this time to tell me that you've done an investigation so far."

"Yeah. I know. I'm not going to go to that continent."

"Exactly. Besides, I'm not really willing to send too many personnel, even for me. Even if I sent it, it's only Euro."

I needed to understand the situation, but I don't need to bother sending people to risk it.

It is not too late to talk about the Red Fox after a little more information has been gathered, as it is a problem in other countries if we stick it up.

The idea was also agreed by Ain and Silvado.

"I was actually planning to send Lili, but let's not. In case things go wrong, I want to avoid losing Lili. Sending someone else to contact Lord Elena. … Alternatively, I would ask Lord Elena to come upon the signing of the treaty with Euro"

"Mm-hmm. That would be good. So, what if Heim decides that Ishtalika has extended to the crime?

"That's unlikely. I thought they understood, too. At any rate, during the other meeting, we were able to strike down every King Heim. So I don't think you'd think we'd take these troublesome ways."

No matter how many Heim people, they won't make those ridiculous decisions.

This is what Warren decided.

"It is more foolish than anything to do with us in the present situation. Nor does Heim seem to inspire us now."

Considering Heim's past deeds, there was an incredible part of Warren's words, but now I just have to think about it this way.

"Whatever it is, it's about the red fox that Master Ain said. Based on this, we will investigate the future. We'll do something later."

"... yeah. Okay."

When it comes to the status quo, we're just talking about protecting the Augusto family, including Elena.

This would be the limit of the status quo because of the sudden talk even as Warren and Silvado.

"- also, I'm sorry. Delayed............!

... and Krone came out of breath under the Ains who were having a conversation.

He hurried from the Augusto family mansion, probably from inside the castle, running towards the conference room.

The slight collapse of my hair represented a rush to come.

"Oh, Lord Krone. Sorry to call you so late at night."

"Yes, no. Rather, thank you for contacting us -"

I guess Krone was worried too.

Heim is home to Krone's family, including Elena.

It's perfectly natural that if we leave the country alone, we want it to be peaceful without anything.

"Ain. Explain to Krone what happened earlier. Warren and I have a few things to check."

"Oh, Grandpa? Then me and Krone..."

"Fine, but speak slowly to the office."

... Maybe it was a care for Silverado.

When Ain realizes about it, he bows his head to Silvard and then speaks to Krone.

"Bye, Krone. Let's go to my office."

"Huh...? Yes, no... but..."

- Is it inappropriate at a time like this?

This is what I thought, but seeing Krone wondering what to do, Ein takes her hand aggressively.

"Here. I'm coming."

If you ask me to be more nervous, Ain't got nothing to argue with right now.

But if you think for Krone, this didn't feel best.

When he is half-forced out of the conference room, Ain goes straight to his own office.

... Would it have been foolish to get out of the way until you pulled your hand, given what was seen by many servants and knights on the road?

It might have been a bit of a thought to get out of the castle like this, covered in tension.

"... suddenly I think it's terrible to take him away forcefully"

A disgruntled face, in a hurry.

And this emotion I don't know what to do.

Krone finds herself in such a situation that she looks at Ain with a jitsu eye.

"It was quick, I'm sorry, but I let you do this."

When they arrive in the office, they finally let go.

Then, sitting on the couch opposite each other, Krone complained.

"If you talk properly, even I will soon..."

"I know. Grandpa cared, so it's rude to be too reluctant."

"... right"

Again, the fact that Silvard cared for me is significant.

When Ain says this, Krone sighs, as he perceived.

"So Ain't Ain't gonna explain it, is he? I know you do, but I'm not calm right now. So please, tell me what's going on...?

"Of course. You brought me here with that intent.... Well, it's quick..."

Reflect on what you were talking about earlier and explain it in turn.

However, not only Ain, but the Silvers have not received much information.

So the information remained insufficient, but explain some of the situation as well as tell Krone about what to do with Elena and the others.

The only thing Krone seemed to have heard was about the second prince, and when he heard the information about the Isis, he looked palpable and nervous.

Although I am relieved that there have been no incidents against the Augusto family, I am surprised by the seriousness of the matter.

And at the end of the day, he said something about a red fox.

"- He said by the end of the day he'd hit his hand, so I think he'll be moving to protection or something soon."

"... ok. I'm sorry, you've annoyed Ishtarika."

I'm thankful that Warren will deal with it, but at the same time, I'm annoyed by the sentiment that it bothered the country.

Besides, they become people from other countries, so getting special treatment in this way was even more disturbing.

"Nobody thinks it's annoying. We're just worried, too."

"... really, Ain't always sweet"

Clone manages to make a smile, even though she is shriveled.

In case my family has... With that in mind, there's no point in Krone coming up with these expressions.

Assuming you left Heim in a way like Ein, it would be a different story for Krone.

However, in the case of Krone, Ain was followed, and there was no such thing as a bad relationship with his family.

In that case, it is only natural to worry about safety in this way.

"- I'm sorry...! Ain't lost his wife too, but if I did, I'd make myself look like a victim..."

"Ah, uh... I'm sorry to hear he died, but I don't think he's much of a grandmother, so it's hard for me."

Krone speaks with sincere apologies, but Ain laughed like he was in trouble.

There is a little bit of thought about the death.

But I had feelings like resentment, but I never wanted Isis to die in these ways.

What's more, I told Silverado, because I don't have any feelings for my grandmother, so are you sad? It was indescribable if asked.

"Maybe it's cold, but the only woman for me is the one here."

"... sorry"

"Ha... I apologize too much for Krone today. You don't have to apologize so much, do you?

If a third party sees it, there is a chance that some people will be annoyed by Ain's behavior.

But here, because it's just Ain and Krone, don't worry about that, Ain't approached Krone.

Ain then gently stroked Krone's head, which he continued to apologize for several times.

"I wonder if I can be comforted by His Royal Highness Prince Wang until this time, as an aide."

"Rather, it's normal to panic at times like this, so I don't think you should worry about it."

At least if Olivia and the others were the target of the danger, Ain't would have done anything to rush.

With these things in mind, from Ain, Krone seemed calm.

"As I said earlier, I will be waiting to hear from you for any further information. I don't know if the killer has anything to do with the red fox, but in any way, the continent over there will be rough..."

"... I would rather be sure that if the continent were to be rough, the Red Fox would be involved"

When I hear Ain's words, Krone speaks his own thoughts.

"Because bent over, Heim is a mighty country. Well, it's inferior to Ishtarika, but it has no strength to line up on that continent. That's why Rockdam and... that's why Euro doesn't have the advantage of getting his hands on it. So if it wasn't a crime committed by Heim's people, I'm pretty sure he's involved."

Ein, who heard Krone's opinion, nodded several times.

Indeed, Heim is a mighty nation for that continent.

Rockdam and Euro don't have the advantage of taking risks on purpose.

"Can you pass that opinion on to Mr. Warren later, too?

- When Ain said that, Krone nodded quietly.

It should have been a powerful hypothesis, but thanks to Krone's opinion it was transformed into a definitive hypothesis.

Ain is also attacked by complex emotions while some of them want it to have been a mistake.

"The couple inside me is quiet even though it's a sign of a red fox..."

"About Durahan and Elderlich?

"Yes, yes. By the way, Mr. Cain and Mr. Sylvia."

"Heh... You're like Ein and Olivia."

"Yeah. You have a similar name."

First time I've ever spoken, Durahan and Elderlich names.

Cain told me his name was similar, but I remember him telling me not to worry about it.

It wasn't a big deal, but somehow we both feel looser.

"... but this is the time, I wish you could lend me even one of your wisdom"

I want Sylvia in Elderlich in particular to lend me that brains.

"To the Demon Stone. How about asking Ain't people for their opinions..."

"But they were good people. No, good demon......?

"I don't care... either way"

Ain't got lost in the shame invites Krone to laugh.

"The demon who was the owner of the Demon Stone lives in Ain. It's an anomaly in itself, so you can't guess, can you?

"Mm-hmm. Well, I am."

Not a single reason or principle has come to understand how that happened.

Can we only hope that the reason why the two remain silent for so long will also show up abruptly again because Ain't got no way to look into it?

"But there's one thing I've been wondering about."

"Hmm? Is that about the Durahans?

"Yeah, it is."

Show me how you've been rejuvenated just a little bit, and Krone looks strange.

"Why wasn't Durahan or Elderlich in a manipulative situation, like the Demon King, when the old Demon King disturbed?"

It's called the curse of solitude, a curse that can only be used by the head of a red fox.

Using it, Archet the Demon King was manipulated.

But why couldn't you manipulate the Durahans when you said you could manipulate Arsheh the Demon King? Krone had these questions.

"I think it's vague in a lot of places. 'Cause if you wanted to destroy the people of Ishtarika, you'd have to manipulate both of them, wouldn't you? But those two weren't being manipulated. As a result, the Demon King was crusaded and the Demon side was defeated.... I don't know what I want to do."

Until then, if I say enjoyability in a nutshell, Krone's words raised questions in Ein's mind.

That's about Marco, Deputy Commander of the Black Knight.

"... there is a personal difference in the effect?

"But when I say it, I think it's odd that it worked for the Demon King, but it didn't work for the other demons. 'Cause the Demon King is supposed to be at the top of the demon, right?

"Yeah...... It's supposed to be."

Difference in intensity of will?

Ein doesn't know who Arsheh the Demon King is, but at the very least, he will be the Demon King, so he must have the resistance to do so.

On the other hand, there is a knight named Marco who has resisted the curse for hundreds of years.

The demon king Archet was completely cursed, but Marco resisted for hundreds of years.

And finally. As for the Demon Stone couple, I don't think they were under that curse.

"- No, I can't. He may have cursed you, or he may not have cursed you intentionally. But I don't care what you think."

But no matter what I think, I can't conclude.

There are too many inconsistencies in what the Red Fox does to identify where or why they should aim.

"... right? If we can understand right away, if you're Katima or something, you've already come to the point where you are."

Cats are smart.

Ein only agrees with that.

- It was then.

"Dear Ein! Dear Ein!? Are you safe!?

The sound of slamming Ain's office and the sound of him calling Ain't worried.

The voice had two memories, Ain and Krone.

"... Huh? Me?"

"Uh, yeah. I think it's about Ain... but I think I should get back to you for now."

Even if you can call me and say, 'Huh?' Ain't all I could say.

But Krone is right, he speaks to someone outside the door.

"... uh, Chris? You can come in."

Listen to Ain't. No, Chris enters the room with momentum.

"Dear Ein! Are you safe……. I heard there was a big incident in Heim, and I rushed... Oh, that?

Apparently, she also noticed a contradiction in her language.

When you put it to words that there was a case in Heim, you start asking yourself questions.

"... yeah. I had a case in Heim...... but that? I wonder why Ein is safe..."

Thinking about it for a few dozen seconds, I guess I finally got to that answer.

As he dyes his face red one by one, Chris hides his face with both hands.

"- I'm sorry. Well, he seemed to be early..."

I guess I also made the mistake that Ein was attacked.

It may be careless to laugh at Chris like that.

But Ain and Krone smiled, thanking Chris for the soothing air.
