Small Travel Part V Hidden Truth

The night of the move from the Oriental Uncle villa to that of the Western Uncle. Deefleet suddenly told the surprise facts at the dinner table. It is the fact that His Majesty the Emperor is falling ill.

"Hey, Deefreet, that's information that hasn't been made public yet."

Hildegand speaks a word about Deefleet.

"What, really?

I mean, the information I just heard is confidential. Kamui is mildly surprised by the fact that Deefleet leaked that.

"For if His Majesty is unjust, the chaos of the Empire is imperative. At this stage, only some of the poles are still informed. I have information from my parents."

"Right. Why would Dee tell us such a secret?

Leaking confidential information is a fine crime. Kamui asked why he dared to commit this.

"It's only a matter of time before it's public."

"Does that mean that's all bad?

"Right."

The fact that the Emperor has fallen ill is information I would like to hide if I could. When it comes to making it public, it means it's too much of a situation.

"Still, why are you telling us? Hilda and Dee, of course, are going to be affected. That's why my parents let me know, right?

If the Emperor were to fall, the Crown Prince would ascend. Then the selection of the next Crown Prince begins. Each candidate's fiancée is a big part of the deal.

"Exactly, you're sharp"

In Kamui's remarks, looking sideways at Hildegand's cloudy face, Deefleet replied in a mild condition, which was not an answer.

"Ah, time is limited, so that's the pressure on Cele to be within the moment. What, they turned you down?

"Because it's not. I haven't been rejected."

"... not rejected. Do that while we're in the bath!?

"Shit, 'cause it's not"

"It's also in someone else's villa. Couldn't you at least wait till tonight?

"You can't do that!

I saw Deefleet bewildered by the unfamiliar Kamui penetration, and Serene penetrated from the side.

"Sele, you're breaking in fast. You could enjoy the conversation a little more. So does Hilda, right?

"Hehe, right"

"That's just great..."

Lutz shrugged little when he saw how his smile had returned to Hildegand.

"So in the end, what is it?

"Subsequent influences. I can't even say this has nothing to do with Kamui. It's a little early, but I thought I'd tell you for once."

"About what?

When the emperor's defeat concerns himself, Kamui can only think of one. But that's not something we can talk about here, so I fell in love with it.

"There is a disturbing movement in the East. It's still a small move though."

"Oriental? That's better than me, right, Hilda?

Deefreet has told me something else than what Kamui had in mind. I have no idea what Deefleet is trying to say.

"When Kamui graduates from the middle school, he's going back to the realm, right?

"Yes, because I can't afford to be a student for a long time"

"If there is anything in the East, the Viscounts of Kreutz could also be driven out"

"... is that a big move?

It is true that Nort Ende, the Viscount of Kreutz territory, can be called the East if it is seen only in the territory of the Empire, even if it is said to be the North. But in the East, things like the fact that the Viscount Kreutz territory situated outside is mobilized into strife are not all that matters.

"I don't know yet. I'm just saying there's a shadow of the Kingdom of Ruthua behind it."

"You mean war, not civil unrest?

"without the possibility of developing into it"

"Too soon."

I want to change the empire. This is one of Kamui's purposes. If a dispute with the outside begins while things in the country are not taking shape at all, things will stop going at all in the meantime. There is no way we can do this while at war, such as domestic reforms, where confusion is expected.

"Fast?"

"No, I thought you were moving fast. The movement of the Kingdom of Ruthua is a perception of His Majesty's unpublished wrongdoing, isn't it?

You're a good liar.

"How about that? The kingdom is supposed to be after the Empire all the time. You might want to think it happened to overlap."

"Has the kingdom had that much ambition?"

As for the Kingdom of Ruthua, it was not in Kamui's head at all. It has nothing to do with Kamui right now, whether it's another country or not.

"It's more of a grudge than an ambition."

"Resentment? Not jealousy?

"Because of the Empire, you're second to none spoiled, so there won't be any jealousy, but the motive is resentment."

"Did the Empire do such a grudge against the Kingdom?

It's what Kamui said from himself, but in jealousy and resentment, it's a lot different. To resentment, Kamui feels something much more gloomy than jealousy.

"Indirectly. Fine, there's something resentful or close to saying."

"I have no idea"

"This also has to do with Kamui"

"I, against the kingdom, have I done nothing?

Deefleet's words are the point for Kamui.

"It's like I'm saying something else? Well, is that good now? Kamui indirectly, too. Because it's about the brave."

"Brave man here?

The story of Deefleet becomes increasingly unclear. It has expanded from the sickness of the emperor to the story of the brave.

"Yes. The kingdom inspired resentment of the empire was created by the brave. It was also the brave man accompanied by Lord Sophia, the mother of Kamui."

"Did your mother do something?

This too Kamui is lying, rather than in love. Talking about mothers and braves is something that Kamui doesn't really want to talk about.

"You don't seem to know. Then I'll explain everything from scratch."

"... Regards"

"The brave will always have a companion. The last accompanying men were Kamui's mother and cleric knights of the divine religion, mercenary warriors, and princes of the kingdom of Ruthua."

"I know that."

"Yes. Things happen because this prince accompanied him. Now, do you know why a brave man always has a companion?

"Don't rush it."

Kamui knows the answer to Deefleet's question.

"You'll be accompanied, because the brave are weak."

"" "... Huh?!

This was a remark that gave even greater surprise than the imperial injustice. Except for Kamui.

"Even though I'm weak, I have a lot of strength. But not so much the strongest in the world. Brave men are church puppets."

"Deefleet. Hey, that's"

Hildegand's got his mouth pinched.

"Oh, this is just nothing else to say. Because the church will stare at you."

Brave men are chosen by God and what embodies God's will. This is what the Church claims. In that sense, it's not a complete mistake, but the words are bad.

"Brave men are chosen by divinity. In other words, those who are faithful to the will of the Church are chosen."

"I'm listening a little"

On the contrary, Kamui knows what the brave man was like.

"But then I can't fulfill my mission. If we fail to fulfil it, the authority of the Church that chose it will fall"

"So in the name of a brave companion, we gather strong people."

"Yes, and the strongest of the last chosen is the prince of the Kingdom of Ruthua"

"That's the wonder. The kingdom has always served such a prince."

If it was a demon king crusade accompanied by brave men, the possibility of death was well thought out. I don't see any reason to put a good prince on such a dangerous mission.

"There comes a reason why the Empire is resented. It's hard to blade straight into a church. The influence of the widely preached divinity is enormous. Still, I can't say no for any reason."

"Right. Then why?

"The Empire got in the way. I wonder if the empire will refuse to accompany the prince to accompany his future queen, the fiancée of the Crown Prince."

"That's a lie, right? Even if she was a fiancée candidate, she couldn't have actually been a fiancée."

That's what Zenlock told me about the time. There is no mistake.

"You know exactly that. Exactly. The point is, I fooled the kingdom."

"Why would you do that?

"Come on, I don't know the sincerity of the area. There's one rumor, and the kingdom believes that rumor."

"Like what?"

"The outstanding prince of another country, for the Empire, is only a threat. If so, in the Demon King's Crusade, you can kill him, and the Empire thinks so."

"No, but if it succeeds, the prince's reputation will grow. You can't be absolute."

It is also believed that the Empire had taken measures not to succeed in the crusade, but Kamui did not show it. In that case, the possibility arises that the mother is involved in the measure.

"Sort of. But as a result, the prince died in the battle against the Demon King. And this is hard to say, but Kamui's mother left alive."

"I'm home, right? It was annoying for the Empire. Your mother's return."

"I'm sorry. I'm just saying some people thought that way."

"As a kingdom, you mean enough to doubt it."

"Oh, it turned out that way"

"Oh, my God, your mother also showed up, you had a lot of enemies. And then your mother's death got kind of suspicious."

Kamui's eyes narrow much, increasing sharpness. A slight grin on the mouth. But that grin is not the usual sarcastic grin, it's something that makes you feel cruel.

"... Kamui?

I can't find out now.

Alto talks to Kamui without leaving Deefleet confused by the atmosphere of Kamui.

"Oh, right. But there may be someone out there who knows the truth."

"Well, that's the clue, that's why."

Alto's atmosphere had also turned into something noisy.

"Hey, aren't you thinking about something weird? Assuming there's someone like that in the heart of either empire or kingdom?

"I guess. The kingdom has no idea. When you're in the Empire, you won't be around His Royal Highness. There's no way His Royal Highness would allow that."

Listening to Deefleet doesn't change the direction of the story.

"Outreach, maybe around there. A former thinker can only get in the way of those around him"

"The Crown Princess?

"That's not true. You think that's someone better able to do that?

"No. Then…"

Alto starts to think about other possibilities when he decides that none of the people immediately comes to mind.

"Wait a minute. Why don't we stop talking about that mess?

"Noisy is just exploring possibilities, isn't it?

"No, I didn't think that would end very well"

"I think it's my fault."

"Anyway, this story is over. Let's get back to it. The Kingdom resents the Empire quite a bit in that matter. The future Wise King, the one who will bring development to the kingdom, has been robbed of his expectations."

"What about the church? Daiyuan is a church. Hasn't the church been resented?

In the first place, if the Church of God hadn't thought of such things as the Crusade of the Demon King, even if he had, if he hadn't nominated him as his companion, the prince would not have died.

"They resent me. For one thing, the authority of the Church has already fallen. The chosen brave man died without fulfilling his mission. Do you know what neo-theism is?

"I don't."

"It's also called Shintoism. It's a new sect divided from theism. Still small, but with the aid of the kingdom in the shadows, we are steadily expanding our forces"

"Civil strife. The religious world is in trouble, too. Even though religion is religion."

"What do you mean?

Kamui casually said, "Religion, what this word means," Deefreet wondered.

"Religion is made by people. I'm not necessarily talking about the true God of this world."

"Kamui!?

Theistic criticism is taboo. That much authority lies in the Church of God, which has long been the only religion in this world. The story of Kamui today is far clearer, a theistic criticism, and beyond that, a denial of theism, than the story of the brave men of Deefreet.

"It was a silence. Forget it."

"What a surprise…, this one is more amazing than the story I started with the intention of surprise"

"In the meantime, I get the story. You mean the Emperor's capacity is what motivated you to move?

"Oh, because His Majesty the Emperor is such a symbol of the Empire's martial arts that he is called the Wu Emperor. His Royal Highness, on the other hand, is less appreciative of Wu"

"Well, he's kind."

"... I just thought so. Have you ever met His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess?

"... did I say that?

This delusion has not been deluded at all.

"You met him, didn't you?

"We met."

In response to Hildegand's inquiry, he was a kamui who would honestly respond. It's not that much to hide.

"When?

"In the meantime. When Empress Claudia took me to the castle, I waited."

It's true what I've been waiting for, but it's a lie if Empress Claudia takes me. You are right to be called by the Empress Sophilia. More importantly, the steps up to the castle without being called are already in place for the Kamuis.

"Yes. I understand the Princess Claudia's handover, but what do you mean, wait?

"... this is super important confidential. It's absolutely useless."

"Wow, okay."

To the harsh atmosphere of Kamui, Deefleet also changes his expression.

"He missed me. For His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, my mother is my first love. He really missed me when he knew I was coming."

"... super important confidential?

"It's about the past, but it's about being in love."

"Oh, yeah. And the Crown Princess?

There is a bitter laugh on Deefleet's face knowing he was fooled by Kamui.

"She said she looked alike because she cared about her mother's son."

"Were you similar?

Hildegand also knows that Kamui says her mother is the most beautiful person in the world.

"... was a healthy person"

"Uh, what's that?

"I seem to have gained a lot of weight since I had my child. If you look at my face, oh, no. You don't look like me, do you? I've banged you in the back."

I remember that time and there was a grin on Kamui's face.

The Crown Princess was heard to resemble her mother. Kamui was also a little excited to see the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess who showed up was a nice, casual person, like an aunt in the dining room.

"You're very casual, aren't you?

"Right. As a governor, I don't know, but as a person, I think they're good people."

"It's a little dry, isn't it?

"Well. It's the first time I've had my country better, because that's where I'm going to appreciate it"

"Right. Um..."

Hildegand still has something to worry about.

"What?"

"Have you met Her Royal Highness?

"I see you every day, though?

"You fell in love on purpose now, didn't you? Knowing and falling in love, let's just say?

Kamui has a reason why he has to be deluded.

"Anything sharper?

"I know exactly what Kamui is thinking."

"Couple I've been with for years!?

"What? I can't believe we're a couple..."

Hildegand lets you dye your cheeks on the claws of Kamui. Now Kamui can't make fun of this stuff any more.

"Bokeh, no, I made a mistake. So what are you talking about?"

"... right. I speak of Her Royal Highness Princess Sophilia."

"Her Royal Highness's what?

"Does Her Royal Highness Princess Sophilia resemble Kamui's mother?

Hildegand also knows rumors that Empress Sophilia is so beautiful that she is said to be Imperial One. This is the kind of question the Crown Princess asks when she resembles Kamui's mother but is linked to it.

"... don't you even look alike?

"I knew it. So how was it?

"What?

"You were a woman like your mother, weren't you?

"Surprised, I guess. Because I didn't think there was such a woman."

"Really...... After all, Kamui prefers women like that?

"Yes?"

"I know that Kamui loves her. So I thought you were looking for a woman like that..."

"A mother, though?

"Yes?"

The two conversations do not engage on this topic. Because big mistakes are in Hildegand.

"What world has a child who sees his mother as a paedophile? That's crazy, isn't it?

"" "Huh?

Everyone was surprised by Kamui's words. Because everyone thought that Kamui's sought female portrait, a muscled mazacon, was her mother.

"... So what's Kamui's preferred woman?

"Preferred woman?... Never even thought about it"

"Do you hate tall women?

"Nothing."

"What color is your hair or something?

"Nothing in particular"

"Eye color"

"You have absolutely no taste for appearance. On the outside, I don't think there's a woman beyond her mother."

Now, if the mother-like is not a paedophile, who can you like? Everyone in this room thought.

"... So, you're a character?

Hildegand will not give up. I'm trying to find out what Kamui likes.

"Personality......, I can't think of that either. Dare I say......, is it a woman who can keep her back?

"Kamui......, you, that's not a woman's preference, is it?

To Kamui's answer, a heartbroken alt has become impatient and pinched his mouth.

"Really? So... you don't have a preference."

"Maybe until now, you've never liked someone?

"... None"

"There was a time now!

"No, not like it or anything."

"Were you there? The girl I care about."

"That's not true. Besides, I only met him once, and I didn't even ask for his name."

That's all I remember, that's the proof I was wondering. Kamui had her first love, too.

"Yes. That's the kind of girl you had, isn't it?

"What, are you mad at me?

"I'm not angry! I'm done eating! I'll study!

"Yes?"

"Look, stand up quickly. You can't just sword it. Literary Martial Arts, that's what you should be as a student at Imperial College. Now, let's go."

"Oh, oh."

Before I knew what it was, I was supposed to study with Hildegand, Kamui. Hildegand pulled my hand, forced me halfway, and took me away to the back room.

"Are you crazy after all?

Where the two of them were gone, Lutz opened his mouth.

"I see."

It looks like Alto is stunned and responds to it.

"Hey, it's good to be young"

"Try it."

"But what's so amazing about Mr. Hildegand is that he's not going to walk away angry when he gets there, is he?

Otto is impressed with Hildegand's behavior.

"Sure. If it's Serene, I don't know anymore, and then I'm going to tell you to die a fool or something."

Alto gives his consent to Otto's story.

"Something's complicated, but yeah. If I were you, I'd study there, and I'd never be."

Serene, who was made a comparator, is also showing convincing.

"Oh, maybe the strength of Kamui's opponent needs it."

I'm a kamui who gets blunt as soon as I'm in love. Without all that forcefulness, nothing goes on.

"In that sense, it's the right person."

Otto's expression like this is dark.

"But yeah."

"But. Can't His Majesty the Emperor do it anymore?

That Hildegand is in a position to be the fiancée of another man, His Royal Highness, not so far away. The information of the emperor's wrongdoing has turned it into something realistic at once.

"I can't say for sure. Now you know."

That's all anyone can tell Deefleet what he's trying to say.

"That's the thing, isn't it? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in power, right away? Tachiko."

"No, probably... the engagement's first"

"You mean revealing each other's supporters"

"If I suck, I'll finish my studies in the middle. Naturally, Hildegand is sure. There's no way they're gonna let me go to cavalry school."

I don't need the strength of my sword in Hildegand, who will be my queen. And politics. Hildegand won't be the first to go to advanced school.

"A little over a year later. Short. Three years is kind of a short time."

"There's no time."

It's the same with Deefleet who doesn't have time. I have a real sense of this word.

"... what if you both went to study? You don't have time for this, do you?

I noticed that. Lutz tells me this.

"Right, shall we?

"Yeah, yeah."

To the teasing half of Lutz's words, he rode not only Deefleet, but even Serene.

"Oh, I regretted saying it myself. Oh, my God, these two aren't worth teasing anymore."

"Well, thanks to you, I appreciate it."

"I would appreciate it if you could return it with things, not words. How about that steak you had me on before?

"Fine, as long as it's like that. Come on, Cele, let's go."

And Deefleet and Serene also left the spot.

And all that remained of this occasion were Alto, Lutz, and Otto.

"Come on, Cele, let's go"

Lutz will try to imitate Deefleet.

"Stop. Listen, it's gonna be empty."

Alto's reception was not good.

"Right. But your assumptions are crazy."

"I can't believe I'm crazy. I thought the next Tachiko was over ten years away."

I thought the time of the present emperor would still last. The emperor's miscalculation is considerable.

"I got engaged as soon as I graduated, a couple of years from there or something?

"I can't tell you anything because I have to decide on the Crown Prince right away. But if there are elements that can be rubbed, there is a possibility that we will try to clarify them early."

"I wish I meant Tachiko right away, right?

Otto seems to have the opposite idea of the Altos.

"Why?"

"If you're not the Crown Prince's opponent, Mr. Hildegand, I thought you wouldn't have to have a wife."

Otto believes that if Empress Sophilia were to decide on the Crown Prince, it would be less likely that Uncle Oriental would have Hildegand daughter-in-law.

Impossible. You don't have to bother putting him on a negative horse.

"... if we had the power to ignore anything else, it might have been possible."

That power is not available now. It was the power we were supposed to gain in the next decade.

"I knew you didn't have time..."

"Besides, there's no standing child first. Even the Uncle Fang family should want to play their part in the Crown Prince's fight. I guess that's why I'm thankful."

Especially the Oriental House. Even when the prince, Hildegand's fiancé, takes office, Hildegand, the queen, does not gain authority over political affairs. To exercise influence, you have to think of it as the throne with the support of your parents.

"You won't be rewarded for that."

"There's only one way."

Alto told the depressing Otto that the possibility existed.

"What's that?

"You just have to smash the empire. That way, Mr. Hildegand won't have the lumps."

"... radical"

Otto looking distracted. The same goes for the radicality of speech, but the idea of breaking the empire is an idea that will never come to Otto.

"Oh, my God. If I could do that, I wouldn't struggle. But as much as I'd like to say this, I'm not convinced of your feelings. Mr. Hildegand is such a jerk..."

"I wonder if it would have been nice to reject Kamui's bluntness"

Turning into an alt who stopped talking on the way, Lutz opened his mouth.

"What do you think?

Otto reacts skeptically to Rutz's words.

"What, Otto has an objection?

"Is Kamui really unaware? I'm aware of it, and I feel like I'm in love. Think it's better for each other."

"Otto, stop it. I can't cut it and I'm about to cry. That's too sad, isn't it?

Let Lutz put aside his tone by imitating Kamui. Because if I don't do this, I'm going to be depressed.

"I wonder if the main character is Kamui."

The same goes for Alto. I'm trying to make a joke and distract myself.

"Sure. Doesn't look good at all."

"Well, it's my fault."

I knew how you two felt, and Otto could pull in his thoughts, too. Even if you're right, there's nothing good about it.

"Anyway, don't let your emotions flush you out. Just do what you need to. Let's get ready for that."

"Right." "Right."

Lutz and Otto give their consent to Alto's words.

Here Alto noticed a fact.

"... Speaking of which, does Otto know what we're up to?

"I don't."

"Right."
