Magic Gems Gourmet

The next morning, Lloyd had time to talk to Silvard.

This has been planned for a long time, not only for unreserved stories, but also for some compromise cases, etc.

It's the time that was set aside without Ein.

In a salon room in the castle, at the end of the scheduled conversation.

- Yes, Your Majesty.

Lloyd opens his mouth as he pretends to be calm.

"Mm, what's up?"

"Apart from previous stories, I need to talk to you about one thing."

"Let's hear it."

"I thought I'd review the security posture in the castle."

"… Continue"

Silvard urged the continuation, feeling inexplicable.

Sitting deep down on the couch, he stares into Lloyd's eyes and explores his emotions.

I have been a king for a long time, and my eyes trying to explore the abyss were powerful, and it was difficult to pretend to be calm, even if it was Lloyd.

"The First Princess's wedding is approaching, and the whole country is vibrant. But the same thing happens in the Haim Autonomy, where many guests are expected from other countries. The Black Dragon disturbance before, I thought we should make sure it was complete."

"Oh, I agree with the rest"

"Because it is"

At this time, Silvard thought it was only in the castle - to add more knights to that lower level.

"We should, among other things, increase the protection of all royalty. We will also patrol the Kingsguard knights to the hierarchy where you live. But in addition to Her Royal Highness, Olivia, Lord Krone... there are many women. We believe that Kingsguard knights are for women only."

"It doesn't extend to that. Until now, under the hierarchy where the royal family resides."

"But, Your Majesty, let's not be like before this time."

"Hmm?"

"Some regions call it the Heim Autonomy. In case we don't have someone to treat us maliciously. If so, we should not lay more vigilance than before"

"If so, Lloyd, do you think the thieves will break through to the hierarchy where we live?

".................. no, it won't. In addition to the many magic props, there are always the highest knights."

"I guess you don't mind if it is"

Silvado, who laughed all the time, doesn't look suspicious about anything.

But from Lloyd's point of view, the answer now is a few inconvenient words.

"Just in case, so that means"

"We agree on that, but we need to get to where we live."

Here at last, Lloyd declined.

Even if we push this matter further, Silverado definitely finds it puzzling.

I mean, this is tidal time, and I just have to give up.

Lloyd ends with the words, "Sure, you might not have needed it," and rises with a gentle grin.

"Thank you for your time today. It's time for me to return to the Marshal's desk."

"Oh, thank goodness for the rest"

From the side, it's always the same, and there's nothing different between us than usual.

Silvard drops off Lloyd, or drinks off the tea he leaves behind after he drops it off.

It's all the same when he's alone and he takes a break and he looks out the window.

but I'm alone today.

One visitor to the salon where Lloyd left.

"- And if you'll excuse me,"

What has come is a magnificent Kingsguard knight.

He was the one who was at the scene of last night's commotion.

"You may sit wherever you like. I'm not so nervous. I just want to talk to you a little bit."

Look out the window and never look back, Silverado.

Even if they tell you to sit wherever you want...

To say that you will step into the salon used by the royal family is unlikely if you are normal.

Due to extra tension, neither was he, a knight close to the king, the tension concealed.

Eventually, he heads near Silvard, breaks his knee and refrains from going to the ground.

"The atmosphere in the castle has been different since this morning. You think I don't know what else to do?

"... and yet, I have nothing"

"Hmm. Was it... maybe it's just another mistake"

Then the Kingsguard knight relieved himself.

I see the pressure coming from Silverado sweetly that I'm not going to have to break my mouth.

But.

"It's a funny story. Then why is the Kingsguard the only one standing? It's only loyal ministers who have served more than ever before, but what do you think?"

"Huh -!?"

"and try to ask again"

Silvado finally looked back.

Absolute power, sharp eyes that make the words shameless hegemony and awe.

The Kingsguard knight, who caught cold in the blink of an eye, recalls what he said last night.

Martha said you were going to risk your life.

If I didn't waste her feelings, I was looking up at Silvard with strong feelings.

Sweat transmits to the neck muscle.

If I lost my mind, I would have been overflowing with tears soon enough.

"Something different than usual, don't you think?

My voice is shaking my brain, and my tension makes my senses blurry back and forth.

"Yes, no... nothing for me"

".................. ho"

I endured! Kingsguard knights morale as much as they want to honor themselves.

It seemed like a lot of relief and I could see Silverado at a little leeway.

But words I didn't really want to hear get to my ears.

"I guess using a royal decree would not respond to anything. You can tell by looking into the Lord's eyes."

"Heh, Your Majesty! I am the faithful minister of Ishtarika! Disobeying royal ordinances, etc...... ugh!

"Hmm? Then it's a corner. Shall I issue the rest of the royal decree?"

Lying is too much of a mental burden.

I should quit the Kingsguard after this.

He made up his mind and waited for Silvado's words.

"Then let me command you. Your Lord must not stop the rest of you."

"... what?

"It is forbidden to move off the spot. This is a royal decree"

"Say Your Majesty...... Your Majesty!?

Silvard accidentally took it out of his nostalgia, dagger.

It was a beautiful decoration and worthy of a treasure sword.

The problem lies in the fact that Silvard tried to shake it up without any stray and poke it in his own arm.

"Won't be!? Suddenly what?

"This is a punishment for the rest of himself. To the fact that I couldn't be trusted under your command."

The Kingsguard stood up unexpectedly, grabbing Silvered's arm and stopping forcefully.

No, I can't do this.

I promised Martha that I would hang my own life, but I can't possibly be allowed to hang Silvado's body.

At this time, the Kingsguard knight is finally noticed by this plot.

Silvado, who would have seen it all through, thus moved to open his own mouth.

"Answer me. That loyalty, shall we indeed be directed against our silver? Is he loyal, loyal minister for his opponents?"

…………

After all, Silvado is king.

It can't be that easy to hide things from a man who has been uniting the great power Ishtarika for so long.

The Kingsguard knight finally gives up and Silvado lowers his dagger, having guessed how it was.

"I don't ask why you kept your mouth shut. I don't even ask who I was with. I won't punish you for anything. The only thing left to ask is words."

And I need to ask about Martha, too.

I wanted to avoid her being punished, and being nursed through it was going to even leak a bitter laugh.

Eventually the pompous, pompous and last night is told.

I don't know the details, but he said Ein was in the First Prince's room, touching the wall.

For a while, they exchanged silences.

Along the way, the Kingsguard knight broke his knee and refrained, but that's all.

I couldn't lift my face out of hindsight.

"Was it still... not at all"

From Silvard's voice, no sentiments seemed to convey a sense of sadness.

I don't even feel like I'm hiding it.

"All kind-hearted loyalists, what a happy thing for the rest"

…………

"You may leave the room. But I give my life to you."

"Ha, what a"

What was the last word delivered to the Kingsguard knight?

"I will not allow your Lord to retire. Serve until your body stops moving. It's just, you know, it's forbidden to be impotent."

"Heh... Your Majesty...?

"Ha-ha-ha! All right, get out of the room. The Lord was indeed loyal!

How far will this man see through his heart?

I was going to quit, but if I didn't reach for it, I'd be stabbed in the nail.

The risen Kingsguard wept and quietly left the salon.

Meanwhile, the remaining Silverado sits deeply on the couch and thinks Ain.

"Did you think I couldn't imagine anything else? There's no reason for Ceres to come and Lyle not. Whatever the possibilities, you can imagine, but not at all... Lloyd is Lloyd too. After you realize you don't have to."

The expression is bright as it leaks discontent.

As a matter of fact, I'm not worried about Ein disappearing.

No, I was confident that if I were Ain, I could definitely shake it off, assuming some such difficulty hit me.

I just know that vigilance is important and Silvard knows everything.

"No one can possibly teach Ein Lyle's room. If so...... the words of that day will be hooked"

Ein used to say that he was in a hidden dungeon.

Someone was talking about someone wanting to see me.

Then you must know something.

I wonder what that grandson is hiding, Silvard grinned invisibly.
