Episode 356: Let's Enter the Mansion
◎ Mansion in front of Womin Angley, Kingdom of Lindo Trading City
"Wow, big -"
The wind sounded unexpectedly as I looked up at the mansion.
Oogie smiles and says, "Come here," he calls the gatekeeper, and then leads the wind noises to the mansion grounds.
In the heart of the trading city of Oomin, this is a residential area inhabited by powerful people such as senior residential neighborhoods, aristocrats and large merchants. And among them, the wind sounds were guided into the mansion, which was very loud.
"Lord Angley has twelve mansions of the same size in the Kingdom of Lindo. It's in Minciana and Tuvara."
That's how I admire the sound of the wind "heh" on the laughing eagle.
"You're making money."
"Oh, you've warmed my nose a lot."
Oogie replies with a laugh "ho ho" to the words of the wind.
I thought Bowflower would come from behind (as fast as ever to get along with my grandfather) to see how it was going. Most importantly, if you look around you, you can understand that you are definitely making money. Flowers blooming in the garden, decorated condiments. The bowflowers had had the opportunity to enter the castle and so on by now, naturally well maintained, but because they had never entered these upper-class mansions, this had something to admire.
"Hmm..."
And next to the bowflower, Jinlai thinks alone. That gaze was directed at Oogie from time to time, but there was no such thing as hostility, and he seemed somewhere confused.
"What is it, Master?
"No, I've heard the name of your old body, Lord Oogie, but I was wondering if it was really you."
Jinlai, who said so, had a rare feeling of floating.
"Are you a famous person?
"Right," Jinlai returned to the bowflower inquiry.
"A Rank A Adventurer who was said to be a sword god, or an Iymaster. About twenty years ago, his name often appeared in the Guild Tavern."
"Heh. A knife god... that's another big name."
Bowflower utterly raised the two names given to him on the shelf and said so. I know the Iai Master meant the art of abode, but it was two names that were unlikely to come with it if there was nothing like a god of swords.
"It means he was the right person to be called that. I've never met him before, but his martial arts tradition has made my chest hot."
"Takeo Takeshi?
Jinlai continues the conversation with a niggling grin at the question of bowflowers.
"The most famous would be that he tore Cheng Long, who became a harmful dragon, apart with only one blow and one stroke. It is said that the earth on the spot was also divided in two with the dragon."
That Jinlai word also says bow flowers "Is it true!?" Surprised, "Jinlai laughed further at the reaction of his apprentice. Bowflowers have also confronted dragons so many times before. And I also understood the power of a dragon called Chenglong. It's an unusual story that you tore it apart and knocked it down with one blow.
"Yeah, I honestly couldn't believe it either, but don't let them show you the skull of a dragon that was actually turned into two pieces, left and right. If you look at that extra vivid incision, you'll have to be convinced."
Because Jinlai is that much, he also understands that it is apparently true, and looks at Oogie.
"Why is someone like that here?
"Well. Earlier, I told you I was a partner in Angley Messi's business. I'm not sure it's an escort."
Jinlai also seemed inexplicable. I guess that's why I really cared if it was Ougi Zenjulo himself.
"But the signs of wrapping up are the sole of the mighty. We are still in that old man's slaughter zone. Whether it can be prevented if attacked also by the eagle"
Bowflowers don't pin on that word. I didn't feel any bow flowers with those signs. Seeing the face of his disciple, Jinlai tells him.
"Remember, it's Yumika. Those two names are so named 'God' that they can instantly wield their greatest power without emitting such things as killing or fighting. According to Ilaria, in Japanese they say it leads to the watertight realm."
"Sounds golden, huh?
Jinlai tilted her neck at the words of the bowflower, but she continues the conversation without worrying.
"If you ask me if that's why I can't win, well, I wouldn't say so, but you should think that old man has reached one of the heights where he has wiped out his infinite impurities of heart"
Seeing what I added afterwards, "If it's him..." it didn't seem like Jin-lai himself knew exactly.
◎ Mansion Waiting Room in Womin Angley, Kingdom of Lindo Trading City
"Well, wait a minute."
Oogie said so and left the room.
Currently, the wind noises were passed to the waiting room in the mansion. And when Ougi left the room saying he was going to report to Angley, only the party members were in that room.
"Something went right through here."
The wind snapped like that looking at the closed door.
There seemed to be two escorts outside, but there was no particular indication that they were listening.
"Hmm, well, they're all in a position to buy hot springs from you. You've never been over to make a good impression, and it's best not to have any extra trouble in the first place."
Jinlai's words let out the wind noise. Together they nodded. The wind noise roared "mu" at the reaction and swelled his cheeks up puckoo. It's not like I want anything to happen to the wind. Adults don't understand anything.
"It's more windy than that. You looked up when you walked into the mansion. You got something for me?
And Jinlai asked the wind noise, remembering what he had just wondered.
"Hmm, I smelled bad. Well, it's not something I don't know from what I just saw."
"An unpleasant smell?
The answer came from behind that Jinlai's renewed questioning.
"You smell like black potion, don't you?
That is Louise's word. And then the wind nodded.
"Yeah. I knew Mr. Louise noticed that too"
"What I feel isn't as stinky as you are. Though, I wonder if it's something you seized all over town, like just now?
"I guess."
Louise's words also agreed with the wind noise.
According to a story I just heard from Ougi, black potion is spreading mainly within the kingdom from the marine route, which meant that a variety of things, from thin black potion for habitual use to thick black potion for boost purposes used by Zacks, were flowing into the market behind to erode this kingdom of Lindo. Seriously, it would be said that some luxury products are also commonly used by aristocrats as meds for immortality. Mutation to the astral body by demonization, he says, sells it like an idiot to the old men with gold for it.
In addition, it was that one of the merchants in the caravan saved by this wind noise was found carrying the black potion from Minciana.
The wind noise was not noticed because it was covered with a sealed curse, as it was when the dragon ships, and maybe that was what the dragon ships were carrying on regular flights before the wind noises discovered it.
When the sound of the wind told his companions what had been heard from the eagle, the faces who had not participated in the conversation during the journey were listening with their faces up.
"The problem is that black potion actually works."
It was Louise who said so. Like the battle ahead. Black potion does work, and if demonized well, the situation of immortality is appropriate in form. The presence of demon followers everywhere is also because they yearn for immortality and hope to demonize it, but the black potion can be achieved cheaply.
Most of all, it means being manipulated as a family member of the devil, an act that is tantamount to letting go of one's own soul. It should be noted that, as a similar example, a country called Novar in the northwest had been made immortal by vampires and destroyed by neighbouring countries, and Ougi had spoken of a situation in which the Kingdom of Lindo could be as well.
"Well, that happened, and it took a lot of stopping to ban the black potion because of the guy with the power up there, and Mr. Angley's moving his own private soldiers to deal with it," he said.
And the collected private soldiers are centered on the unfortunately eyed people by the black potion. The captain of as many private soldiers as he had earlier had an outrageous attitude, also because, Ougi said, his fellow drinkers of black potion went mad and the party was wiped out. Then you will also want to antagonize those carrying the black potion.
And we had to roar together when we heard so much about it, but that doesn't mean we can do something about it.
It was decided to sum up the current situation and send an e-mail to Yuko sister.
And when the wind sounds waited for a while, the samurai of this mansion came to the room and the wind sounds were finally to be guided to Angley Messi.
