Magic Gems Gourmet

Right after Ein slammed Ishtar in front of the anomaly that struck the Iron Nation.

Some knights and civilians knew Ein were here, but some didn't. At first, they raised their voice in surprise.

And immediately, you will understand who is responsible for the current power.

"Oh! It's us, Your Highness!"

Your Highness is here!

Hearing the voices of the mouth, Ein finally took off his robe to hide himself.

Ein, standing on the deck of the airship, was cheered even more and gave a speech by hand to everyone.

Then, he held the royal authority in his expression and turned his back to Leonard and looked at him.

Look straight down at the entrance to the Iron Nation and tell Leonard behind you.

"Just in case, follow the fellows to the Iron Kingdom." The guards will lead the dwarf evacuation, and Leonard will command the airship. "

Will the researchers stand in your way?

“Oh, it's okay. And tell Sylvia to ask for help outside.”

Ein responded to the hair stains and turned around gently.

"None of us will injure anybody." --- I'm here for that. "

He said so and stepped forward with Marco. As he stepped out into the sky without a foothold, he disappeared from Leonard's sight.

After Marco disappeared, Leonard dyed his face in surprise and ran to the tower.

Seeing the two of them standing on the plain overlooking the steel tower, he took a breath.

◇◇◇◇

There were already many dwarves on the road to the iron kingdom.

The knights, who went there before they heard the instructions and worked for the convergence of things while listening to them, see Ain, who appeared there without hiding.

Then he knelt down at once and astonished the surrounding dwarves.

"Hey, what the hell are these guys doing...!"

"Hey! Knights of Ishtarica!" What the-- "

"What's the matter with you in this emergency?"

Ein opens his mouth as he heads toward the dwarf who shouts with surprise.

"From now on, we'll take care of the Iron King's hammer." With regard to the evacuation of the inhabitants of the Iron Nation, I promise you that if you follow our knights, you will be unharmed. "

It was a pressure I had never seen before.

Wang Wei, in the presence of the gentleman whose words naturally float in his mind, the dwarfs of the iron kingdom breathe and cannot afford to speak lightly every day.

Eventually, even though Ain was passing through the next door, it didn't dust.

"Someone."

Ein summons the Knight.

Among those who were present here, the captain and the man who thinks he is open his mouth with his knees pierced.

Hah!

"Just stay with me." As soon as Leonard leads us to evacuation, we'll head to the Iron Kingdom with me first. "

I was awed. ― ― ― Everyone, beside His Highness.

Then, the dwarf who was stunned leaked his voice.

"And you're no good..."

The Iron Kingdom dwarves are not stupid either.

The composition of the royal family of the unified state of Ishtarika was known, and it was easy to imagine its identity if it became a young man called His Highness.

Ein stops in front of the open door to the iron kingdom and proceeds without turning around.

I will tell the dwarves who have gathered my name so they can hear me.

"--- I will save the people of the Iron Nation." This Ein von Ishtarika promises. "

and.

◇◇◇◇

After a long journey underground, Ein frowned at the situation in the Iron Domestic.

The artificial blue sky is covered in pitch black, and the visible magic power is like a gentle wave that flashes through the sky like an aurora.

The people on earth were in a vortex of chaos, even as they looked up at the fantastic sight.

Ain-sama, it seems that the road is too narrow for the people to blame at once.

Although Marco has spoken words of concern, Marco, of course, and Ain have no verses of concern.

Ein said, "I'll deal with it first," and he put one hand on it.

His hand glows green magic in the path behind him, and he spreads the path by growing a number of roots around his feet. The walls and ceilings were supported by the roots without collapse, and narrow paths were quickly created.

Exactly, divine.

The dwarves lost their words and knelt down against him, who had created a path to the earth in an instant.

The way and the knights knew Ein's grief, so they didn't seem so surprised, but some dwarves on their knees turned their hands to Ein and were distracted to act like they were praying.

... what the hell is that?!

... the hammer's rampaging! That's what I'm talking about!

... Mom! Mom!

... hey! What's going on?!

It was the voice of the people who were surprised by the sway of Ain's power.

It is clear that the Iron Kingdom warriors and the Knights of Ishtarika will not succeed in their attempts to evacuate.

However, Ein's voice as she proceeded to the castle was normal.

"I want you to feel safe and go outside slowly"

A crowd of dwarves on the road to the castle heard the voice, even though it was never loud.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

”Is that your voice... oniisan's voice?”

There stood a voice that Ein had heard.

When I saw the voice, the other day there was a woman dwarf who had talked to me in the castle town.

Thank you very much for your time. What you told me was very helpful.

The lady was relaxed, but she remembers after a while.

The Ishtarika man who spoke to himself and others that day must be the man in front of him.

She bowed her head to Ain's back and ran off to escape the iron country with her family.

"...... -Yes!"

As I went further, I heard a new voice behind Ain.

"Hey! Your Highness!"

Eventually, the Lord's voice came next to Mutton and Ain.

Shearling has a bag with tools in it.

"I heard from Leonard's husband." Can we come over here too? "

Yeah. I'll protect you.

Then you can rest assured. I'll keep going to the Iron King's Hammer.

"... um, don't you think it's scary now?"

"What are you afraid of?" If you're telling me that you're going to protect me, I'm not going to feel any more secure than that. "

Ng, a shearling with white teeth pounds Ain's shoulder!

He leaves saying, "Let's go," and runs down the road to the castle ahead of Ein.

Meanwhile, Ain suddenly stopped and looked at the knights.

"Everyone continues to guide the evacuation. As soon as the Kingsguard arrives under Leonard's direction, I'll leave the command here to you."

What will your Highness do?

When asked, Ein asked what to do.

In fact, the answer to my heart does exist.

But it didn't make me feel good to say it.

But I couldn't leave without telling the knights,

”...... I'm going to end this horrible battle with my chest”

He smiles bitterly and says he can't help it.

The knights seemed to have no common ground, but if Ain, who was nothing else, didn't make it clear, she nodded, thinking it was unnecessary to ask further questions.

“From now on, we will do our best to save the iron country.”

"Oh, thank you."

The knights ran without further ado.

The remaining Ain looked to the back of the cultivated land instead of to Marco's side, and to the castle of the iron kingdom.

Looks like it's over there.

"... that's right."

"Please leave it to me, Ein-sama." I don't need you to be sick, and I'm fooling you to think that Marco alone will suffice. "

“It's okay. I don't feel good about it, but it's not so worrying.”

Ein, who was gentle in her heart, smiled calmly, recovered herself and moved her legs.

This time, unlike before, he was running too.

But his speed is faster than the wind, and even though he used to be Ishtarika's fastest knight, Chris can't catch up with him.

◇◇◇◇

Heading toward the back of the cultivated land, the cemetery in the iron country is a harsh place.

Wrapped in a unique darkness, looking up, you can see a stupid and disturbing sight of magic power.

In front of a huge stone tombstone where only royalty is buried, even in the place where the tombstones are lined up.

"Lil! Why did you come back so suddenly?"

"That's right! We didn't hear from Ishtarika that you were coming back!" I don't think you're using some kind of magic tool without permission!? "

Riordo, the deputy guardsman, and Gido, the guardsman, were questioning Lil.

Lil stood in front of the royal tombstone and did not turn around with her hands on the tombstone.

She murmured something in a small voice, but it was not heard by the two of them who questioned her.

"Ugh... Giddo, he's behind us!" Now that Iron King Hammer is about to rampage, there's no time to deal with that fool! "

"But what if the Queen accompanies you!?" I have to ask Lil! "

"I know that!" But! What are we going to do with all this time? We have no choice but to ask the Ishtaricans for help and evacuate the people! "

”Ugh... but......”

Lil didn't try to turn around, just stroking the headstone.

Suddenly, a young man walked by two people who tried to turn their backs on her without patience.

The young man marvelled for a while before them, surprising Giddo.

"Why, the Prince of Ishtarika...!"

"Giddo!? Prince Wang!?"

"Ah, ahh... definitely!" That person must be Prince Ishtarika... why are you here!? "

Now is not the time to answer that question.

Ein speaks immediately about Lil.

"Lil won't listen to them anymore. And the voice of the queen who hasn't caught the blood of the royal family."

"Huh... Oh, Your Royal Highness the Prince!?" What are you doing...! "

"I know that, too." Just like the two of you, the Queen hasn't drawn the blood of royalty. "

When they noticed, Marco was next to them.

Marco refuses to protect the two of them and silences them without saying anything.

"She's in love."

Lil's shoulders twitched as he twitched and turned his back.

"It's so much love that it kills you, it kills your country. It's a stupid love that the king of this country once had."

Now Lil's shoulders were trembling.

The fingertips that were stroking the tombstone were filled with strength. By rubbing hard on the surface of the stone, the skin was avoided, and the crimson fresh blood formed a chubby chubby chubby chubby.

"Giddo, I heard you asked Lil to take care of a silver-haired man."

"Oh, ah... yes, I did ask for it! However, I only asked for it at the beginning, and Lil offered to move on from the opportunity that followed!”

Suddenly, Gido was in a panic, but he remembered what happened at the time and said so.

"--I heard what you two were talking about. I've played a play and talked a lot about it."

The two of them who had been told by Ain who had turned their backs were in shock.

How and when? Lil finally opens her mouth as she opens her eyes to several surprises.

She turned to Ein and the others, her eyes bleeding.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the two of you were planning to use the knowledge that he had given you."

Her voice, coupled with her bloody eyes, appeared to make Ein suspect her sanity.

"You already know a lot, don't you?" If so, I don't know why the Iron Nation went out on the ground and used force. ”

"Yeah. If it were true that the Queen hadn't caught the blood of her royal family, she wouldn't have had to deal with Ishtarica in the first place." If the purpose is to repair the Iron King's Hammer, the Queen cannot control the Iron King's Hammer even if she gets the necessary supplies. "

The reason is that she hasn't caught the blood of royalty.

Then there is no point in selling the quarrel to Ishtarika from the beginning.

It was related that the management of the Iron King's Mallet could only attract the blood of the royal family. Since the Queen does not belong to her royal family, it was only a real suicide attempt against Ishtarika.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ein wanted only that answer.

"They were going to lose from the beginning."

Ain's neck was twisted by suicidal behavior and words that were perfect for answering the question.

"... were you going to lose?"

"Yes, there is no hidden royalty in this country, and the Iron King's Hammer was destined to run rampant far and wide." The country will perish and become dust. ”

“I see. I know exactly what the Giddos were thinking.”

"Huh? Is that all you've got?"

Ain said as she took a step forward.

Lil did not move and did not take his eyes off Ain.

"From the information that the silver-haired man gave you, Giddo and Riordo have explored the art of saving the iron kingdom. Even though we knew the difference in national power, we threw ourselves into battle to entrust the Iron King's Hammer to us, Ishtarika---is that right?"

Gido and Riordo repeatedly knew that there was a difference in national strength that would not compete from the beginning.

But they decided to reverse the difference.

I wondered if Ishtarika's technique could manage the Iron King's Mallet, which I was sure could no longer be controlled.

Of course, I also explored the path from peaceful contact.

But to do that, we have to convince the other Dwarves.

Thinking that the strong stereotypes of the dwarves born in the iron kingdom could not be easily broken down, they were the ones whose resources the earthly kingdom had taken away, and they had no choice but to bring them into battle by inciting them to do so.

"That's why it was suicide bombing from the beginning." Rather, it was a battle to bring us into the country and entrust us with a hammer. "

"Thank you for your understanding." As His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, the two of them weren't going to win from the beginning. "

According to Lil, the guardsman and the deputy guardsman were going to take responsibility.

The two of them folded to reveal that the queen had not drawn the blood of the royal family, and that all was a rampage of the army, and they were going to be executed for responsibility.

"The Queen will not be acquitted, but she will still be spared from execution..."

That was my wish, and I was putting a lot of plans into practice.

Well, isn't there a hidden royalty?

“Rest assured, your ancestors were physically incapable of childbearing, so the current queen is adopted.”

Giddo and Riordo were behind Ein and Lil's conversation.

But you two shouldn't get in the way of Ein...... so I squealed.

"Nevertheless --- Fufu. Whose child do you think the queen is?"

Gido, who had been silent behind him until now, had a violent tone, ahead of Ein, who continued to ask Lil, who laughed in a sinister voice.

"Shut up, Lil."

Lil's words were interrupted.

Lil then loosened her cheeks in a joyful way.

Bloody eyes twitched.

For a moment, Ain asked how she was doing and exhaled.

"I wonder if you fell in love with the crap man or made you fall in love with him?"

Ein knows that the power of the evolved Shannon cannot be free, except against the presence of that silver-haired man.

Think back to the turmoil in Strom, even more so.

So when I tried to ask at the end,

"...... crap, man?"

Lil's appearance changed a lot.

Hearing Ain's voice, he was driven by anger.

"You're the one who's stupid!" Even though he is the prince of a great country, he will show his sympathy for such a small country! You've come all this way, trying to save a dwarf like an idiot---it's just ridiculous! "

"... what's the matter? Suddenly."

"Suddenly!?" You weren't the one who fooled him first! That's the only one who's gotten rid of my anxiety! He held me in his warm arms! He's not the king who put me in his sleeve! "

When I heard Lil screaming, I didn't think she was just framed by a silver-haired man. The desire for power hidden in words informs Ein that the darkness lurking in her heart was her own.

You were about to join the ancient king.

"You mean bad!? I was born in such a boring country!" It would be more fun to have such a terrible power! And yet that man... put me in his sleeve...! By the way, it's crazy to have your subordinate's child adopted! "

Ein perceived a lot of misfortune.

The underground iron country lived too long in misfortune.

Because of this, a thought-like existence was born, and it must have been first seen by that silver-haired man.

He must have thought he wanted to polish what was in her heart.

"That's why I jump!" Blossom the flames that kill this moldy country, and create a huge crack in the ground to please them! That way, you can hold him in your arms again! "

"... I see."

It seemed unexpected. I was heartbroken.

Ein replies to Lille in a depressed manner, letting go of Ishtar's hand.

The next time she saw Lil, her eyes were full of sympathy.

(Lil is just playing)

If you think about it, you'll soon find out.

The silver-haired man, a former consultant on the Golden Route, said that there was a maneuver to fix the iron hammer on the ground in the first place, and gave other knowledge to the gidos.

Using their knowledge, Giddo and Riordo took measures to save the queen and the people to the greatest extent possible.

In other words, it's not the same.

Lil seems to have been trained by a silver-haired man to ram the Iron King's Hammer, but on the other hand, he has also given Gido the wisdom to be inspired by Ishtarika.

So Ishtarika intervened far away.

Even if Lil rams the Iron King's hammer, it's not going to be easy.

The darkness in her heart was growing at the hands of a silver-haired man.

Because of this, she seemed to be more influenced to act conveniently for a silver-haired man than to make a normal decision.

"Lil, calm down and listen to me." You're being played by that guy. "

"... what are you trying to say?"

“Think about it and you'll see. If you're trying to ram the Hammer, why do you need to get us involved? If Ishtarika hadn't intervened, it would have been easier to ram the Hammer."

…………

"That's why... please don't do it anymore"

I was aware that it was sweet.

Driven by greed and desperate for power, Lil lived in a darkness unusual in this country.

Still, I wasn't surprised.

... Ain was sure of what she was going to say. The greed in my heart is original, if there is the influence of a silver-haired man there...

"Are you stupid? I don't care what you think, but if that guy is going to do that, I'm going to obey him."

Until Ein can't save herself, Lil is degenerating on his own.

Not that the influence of a silver-haired man is unaffected, but Lil is trying to ram the hammer almost at his own will.

"You just have to perish!" This country! You just have to disappear! "

And it was at the same time as Lil screamed.

She pulls on the earring and throws it towards the ground.

The small gemstones that adorned the earrings were shattered, and golden magic emerged from them, instantly inflating---that was when it happened.

"I won't let you."

Ein puts his hand on it and sucks all the magic out of it.

Lil instantly began to wolf, but at the next moment, she opened her eyes wide and took out the dagger she was hiding, and ran out with Ein.

But her body is disappearing.

It didn't matter that Ein was trying to stop her, she was hunting herself down with her own hands.

In fact, the phenomenon started from the moment she destroyed the earrings with her own hands. When she described the behavior of the gidos as suicidal, she was unaware of the trap set by the silver-haired man and destroyed herself.

One step at a time... each step forward turns her body into a particle of light.

Just a step before the dagger was supposed to reach Ein, she disappeared, leaving only what she wore and the dagger.

In response to the sight in front of her, Ein shakes his body in tremendous anger.

He did so for a while, then turned his body toward the gidos while lying down. It's not the time to stay still, tell yourself this.

"... let's go. We have to save this country."

And he uttered the word with an uncontrollable anger throughout his body.
