"--Well done. It's a wonderful job."
Upon entering Mr. Cigarone's office, I was praised for some reason.
"What did you think? You've killed a good opportunity. You could have killed Nova Barteremon, but the result was a draw. That's ridiculous. This will bring up the Kingdom of Orange. "
Different.
No, well, that's right. I did the exact opposite of Mr. Cigarone's order.
"Nova Barteremon has defeated it."
"Oh, yes or no, hahahaha! ... and what does that mean?"
"No, I was talking to her and thought I could do well with the Kingdom of Orange."
"I don't know if that woman will be gone anyway! I don't know if it's ten years or twenty years ahead, but maybe I'll resign as early as the end of this month! If the small citizens of the country are overflowing with orange soldiers! "
"!"
I see, the future.
Certainly, as long as I have Nova, the Marvel Empire and the Kingdom of Orange will be able to get along. But what about the relationship between the two countries, which lack one? I'm sure I can't believe each other and I'm immediately back in tension.
It seems that Mr. Cigarone thought so much and told him to beat Nova on this occasion.
"As expected, I'm looking over the big picture."
"... It's just stunning that he doesn't regret, regret, or apologize."
This time was praised? No, ironic?
"How do you explain. Think with your head full of feces and say it."
Seems ironic. Shigarone is a crown.
But explanation? What does it mean?
"No explanation or anything has been praised by His Majesty."
"Do you say you were right against me?"
You know, hmm ...
"Seven, you have been used, and it is about to be used further. I don't know if you don't know."
...... Hmm?
Isn't it natural that the emperor uses it as long as he works under the emperor?
"Who is using it?"
“…………”
I don't know at all, so ask.
Then, Mr. Cigarone silenced without expression.
Not a usual angry face, a cold expression similar to disappointment.
"... You too. Alright, go home."
"me too?"
"Is your ear clogged with shit? I told you to go home. I don't want to see my face."
"Hah"
I'm sorry, but it's better than going home if I have been told so far.
What is it? I was angry and asked me for explanation.
"Excuse me"
While tilting my head, I bow out and leave the office.
"You too?"-Shigarone said at the end.
Disappointed because you didn't realize I was being used? No, it wasn't. He is probably disappointed with the bigger things.
I mean ... I mean, there was something similar before me.
When you come, "Betrayal" is associated with you. When Raz was hit by a disappointing attack, he often said "bull". I heard that if you were betrayed by something, saying "You or Brutus" would be interesting. It is an intellectual gag that lays down a real elementary school graduate.
anyway. In the past, Cigarone was betrayed by someone. And, depending on what I saw, I betrayed Mr. Cigarone. So, did you say that, "Do you betray me too?"
No, I don't know. I want to listen to it straight as usual, but if you meet that, you won't hear me. Well, what happened ...
It's strange, anyway. Shigarone's idea is exactly the opposite of the emperor. Moreover, they do not feel like disobeying the emperor in their own opinion, and they may, at their discretion, issue substantive opposition to the emperor, as in the case of Shizun Small Country.
That's why I think I've been a prime minister, but it seems to be true. Does that mean he is capable?
"O"
As I walked down the corridor thinking about it, I saw Olympia and Joe at the corner.
"What are you doing?"
"Knight chief! Have you finished the meeting?"
"Oh, it's over soon."
That's enough time. Olympia seems to be trying to make the best use of his time because he did not expect to end so quickly.
"I'm sorry for this. I'm just about to bring in the guard, Joe, the Knight's nomination. What should he do?"
What did you bother to bring me?
treatment? Oh, I have to think about it. I just wanted to keep him, who was brainwashed for the time being, so I didn't think about the details.
"Isn't it okay to subordinate to Olympia?"
"!" "!?"
Olympia will also have the job of the Guard Knight, so Joe's job is to help me with my aide. That's when I said to Olympia's subordinates ... they were surprised.
"I'm sorry for the disapproval. Will my subordinate work for this person?"
Olympia says so badly and calmly after her eyes are rounded.
You probably want to say that you are lacking in ability. And indeed it is. Joe is just a guard, and Olympia is one of the top guards. But ...
"It doesn't matter much, but what matters is trust."
"...!"
It doesn't matter if Joe is talented or not. He is brainwashed and cannot lie to me. In short, the information he says is very trustworthy ... I just wanted to keep it somewhere.
Olympia opened her mouth with a surprised expression, "Yes!"
"The Knight, with great thought. Indeed, if you're a Knight, it's easy to grow a mediocrity into a mighty power in a matter of days. I need to be with you. Alas, I'm impressed with this Olympia.
Olympia, who has misunderstood it, is impressed, but that's probably the case.
"Thank you, Joe. Let's go drinking again."
"Hah! Humbly, humbly, thank you very much ...!"
When I spoke, Joe was very afraid and thanked. He looks very frightened.
...... Is it natural if you think about it? It's sandwiched between a general and a guard knight. I'm sorry to be brainwashed.
"Olympia. Joe doesn't treat me too crudely. I'll ask for a simple job. And when I'm not there, I'll give me a meal or a drink."
"Ha. I act as a good boss."
This is good.
"Yes, Joe, there was something I wanted to hear right away."
"Hah. If you like yourself."
"Mr. Cigarone says I'm used. Who do I think is used?"
"!?"
It was Olympia who heard my question and showed a surprised face.
"Your Majesty, Spica-sama. His second place is His Highness."
"!?!?"
When asked, Joe answers it plainly.
Looking at it, Olympia was even more surprised.
"I only have it."
"Recently, His Majesty and His Excellency are in disagreement. In the past, there wasn't much of that, but in the past, it seemed as if Spica had become a Majesty's exclusive fortuneteller. I will. "
“Hey, you!
"Good, Olympia"
Olympia shouted at him as sullen when he saw Joe slurping.
But if you yell at me. I'm the one who is brainwashing so that I can talk insincerely. Therefore, I stopped Olympia immediately.
"Rather, you'd better say this much."
"Well ...!"
Olympia hardens with its mouth wide open. I thought that I was angry because I was stopped because I was careful and thought, but it seems that it is different from looking at the expression.
"Well? In other words, did your Majesty listen to Spica's opinion so much that she began to diverge from Shigarone?"
"It's been rumored by the guards to be so."
"I see. Your Majesty's confidentiality was replaced by Mr. Sigarone to Mr. Spica."
"Yes. I think it's because of Spica's influence that your Majesty changed from a hardline to a moderate."
"Hey Spica ..."
Did he skillfully seduce the emperor, the likely fortune teller? Or are you really working hard as a moderate to think for the Empire?
For now, I understand that Spica and Shigarone are bees.
In other words, I'm used by Spica instead of the emperor ...?
"Hmm"
Well, this is
I've only talked to her once. It wasn't that bad, though. He looked smart, he was polite, and above all he was kind. She had the depth to remind her of her job as a fortune teller.
whatever. You'll see.
"Joe, only one more thing. Did you ever betrayed Mr. Cigarone in the past?"
"Betrayal ...?"
"Ah. Someone who was thrown away by Mr. Cigarone, or someone who was fired for failure."
"I'm counting on the latter ... but I'm sorry. If you're an exiled person, I can't think of it."
"Yes, thank you."
Apparently there was no clear betrayal. It's weird, if you come up with the intellectual "You too", you should be betrayal.
"... I'm the knight chief."
Shigarone, maybe it wasn't actually bull. Is there a way to use this razz?
Olympia talked with a sense of tension.
"What happened?"
"I haven't decided yet whether I can say this, but ... as a Knight's aide I am."
"Oh"
"Uh……"
"?"
Olympia seems to be saying something. Is it difficult to say that it is an aides?
"Before Spica was before his Majesty's exclusive fortune teller, there was still a Majesty Guard Knight at that time."
"e"
Is n’t it now?
"To distinguish it from the Highness Knight, the Highness Knight was specially referred to as the Guard Knight, and the Chief of the Guard Knight was also a high-ranking position serving as a general."
"... No way."
"Yes. I don't seem to know the Knight who recently came to the Imperial City. Two years ago, I was the Chief of the Guard Knight at the Imperial Highness of Cigarone Elebni. I was removed from the generals and took office as Prime Minister. ''
I've heard that story already. However, he did not know that he was the Chief of the Guard Knight.
"Perhaps the betrayal of the chief of the knight ... would point to that."
So that's it!
The emperor did not release him, but rather the emperor.
"!"
Well, I just thought I was thrown out by Mr. Shigarone, but it was the opposite.
At that time, if I had admitted that I was being used by Spica, Shigarone wouldn't have said, "You too?"
Cigarone was trying to determine if I was Spica's side at the meeting. As a result, my word was perceived as "quickly blurred", and I did not give any explanation, and I was completely judged to be Spica's side, meaning "I'm going to be on your side as well as your Majesty" He said, "You too?" That's it.
...... No, I don't know. You know Yukari, Raz, Nova, but I can't.
But not late. I noticed thanks to Olympia. It was good to have an excellent aide. Today we have a feast, so after that, or tomorrow morning, let's go to Mr. Cigarone again and talk again.
"Olympia"
"Hah"
"Thank you, it was a good story."
"Hah ... huh!"
When I thanked me, Olympia was sacrificed for a while and then saluted with fear.
From his standpoint, it would be really hard to talk. It is safe to be fired if someone hears you, such as rumors that your boss has been betrayed by the emperor. So thank you.
Olympia said, "I'm likely to learn from him as the chief of the knight," said Joe.
"By the way, what's the status of the Guard Knight now?"
"It's changing shape. A secret called" shadow "protects His Majesty around the clock."
"And?"
"Nobody has seen it, but his arms seem to be certain."
"Wow, that's amazing."
A shadow that no one has ever seen. It's pretty cool.
Anyway, it's a good defense. I was impressed. By not revealing its identity or number to enemies or allies, it is a deterrent to assassination.
"And maybe you're a shadow?"
"Fufufu, no"
I jokingly said, Olympia laughed elegantly and denied, then hid her voice and spoke.
"But, knight, be careful. I don't really know where you are lurking, and the shadows are not just protecting your Majesty. Sometimes they are shields and sometimes conflicts."
* * *
She was so calm, but too calm-Cigarone stared at the door where Seven had exited, closed his eyes and took a slow, deep breath.
Reflection time for one breath. Cigarone turned himself off when he mixed his emotions with the words to Seven.
He knew slightly. That attitude of Seven was not just a form.
Seven was plain and didn't know it was being used by Spica. Cigarone is even more aware that that attitude wasn't "blurred."
"It's hardly an idiot ..."
Cigarone muttered unintentionally.
If you ask him, most people are stupid. But among them, Seven was a bit stupid.
"Let's use idiots and scissors"
Cigarone is determined. The country is strongly convinced that it has to do something.
For that, I had to increase my hand. A special joker that is more powerful than any other card.
And we are ready.
"Now, one by one, expose your hands ... the fox."
◇ ◇ ◇
A woman mutters in a dark room.
"... Seramu. The feast comes with" poison. "Someone will surely set up the Seven glasses."
Who does not say. That person probably refers to the person spoken to now.
In other words, someone senses himself and sets himself up. She has nothing to do.
"Ha-"
The man nodded in the dark and quietly turned off the sign.
◇ ◇ ◇
The dressed woman speaks with a happy expression in a room that is so gorgeous that the word gorgeous cannot be said.
"Hey, dad. Isn't that seven boy really good?"
"Um"
"It's so strong, it looks smart, it's pacifist, it seems to protect me, and it's super handsome."
"Um"
"Dad will forgive me? Will my father be jealous if I marry Seven?"
"Um"
"Yeah! Then I'll marry Seven"
"Um"
"Ah, we have a rich life, we have a dad, we can get married, and we're really happy ... I wish we could continue all these days ..."
"Um"
