"If you're not in this country, go to another country. But bring them! I've just captured that one, so I'll hold it for a while, but I still don't know what it is!

"Your Majesty, that's... even the incompetence you are in the first place..."

"You... you've gotten great at opinions. Or what? Do you want to take your place?

To that evil and disgusting grin, Mariana froze her spine.

Of course I know I can't do that.

But still, the fear that this man might do it struck her.

"I'll figure it out... I'll find it..."

"Hmm! You just have to say that from the beginning. Be sure to bring the incompetent woman... okay? Back off already! I don't want to hear anything else!

"Ha..."

After the room, Mariana looks out the fudge window as she walks down the aisle in the castle.

The sea of darkness you can see from there.

She stares at it and unintentionally imagines there is.

But soon she scolded herself, and she walked out again.

The Armenian Government has naturally also noticed that the number of dragons has been unusually high recently.

And it's not just a lot, every single one of them is very strong.

As usual, there were many times when troops and adventurers headed for the dragon hunt were defeated, and each time she was running to the butt plush.

Honestly, it's not like we're hunting incompetence.

But no matter how much I advised the king about it, it was useless.

"You sadist......!

"That's rough. The dragon hunters, sir?

"... Huh!? Oh, oh, Neil... don't surprise me..."

"It's a breeze. I don't give a shit if everyone thinks so. How incompetent, but too miserable. I don't think so for people or other countries who don't know what's inside..."

Neil, who has spoken to Mariana, is the man who serves as Armenian defense captain.

Mariana and I were old friends, and she could only speak to Neil for real.

"Let's change places. Come to my room."

"Oh...... ok"

Moving to his room, Neil lights the lamp and takes out two glasses.

Mariana was sitting in a window chair looking out at the black night sea.

Pinch a small round table and Neil pours wine into the glass he puts in front of Mariana as he sits there.

"So, what about Your Majesty?

"Same as always." Bring your incompetence. "

"Well... not if you're incapacitated..."

Mariana sighed slowly swallowing it as she included the wine in her mouth.

"Oh... and apparently incompetence, caught three months ago, hasn't committed any sins yet"

"The guys in the gendarmerie have caught you. Are you sure about that?

"It seems our team heard the drunk gendarmes say that. I'm not sure because I heard it again, but it's probably because the press is regulated..."

"Well... that was definitely only eighteen. Poor..."

"I guess I've been desperately hiding it. As the same woman… I cannot help but sympathize, however incompetent"

Mariana drinks up wine.

That act is horrible just to imagine.

as if to shake off that disgust.

"His Majesty is cunning, cruel... and timid. I use my world-recognized existence of incompetence to fulfill my greed with dignity"

"I guess we can stop His Majesty from doing more than being incompetent... that just seems possessed by something. That is also a problem, but there is one more thing… that we need to talk about as protectors of the country. Dragons moving... what do you think?

Neil asks Mariana that as he pours wine.

Mariana looked Neil in the eye and answered after a few thoughts.

"Not far."

Hearing the short words, Neil looks out the window.

The pitch-black sea was there as usual, and he imagined the invasion from Dragonia ahead.

"... you should strengthen your defense. It would be useless to tell His Majesty, and do you wish to proceed to the Chancellor?"

At this time, the entire world, including the Dragons, still does not know the decline of the Demons.

For this reason only Byrne learns this in a report from King Celtic, and with his permission he speaks to King Nieberg.

This was King Celtic's decision, because it could endanger the world if it leaked to the Dragons.

Either way, however, if the Lords hadn't stopped the Demons, Celtic would have been raided, and it is also true that there may have been Demons, but the Dragons' raid was imminent.

In addition to the increase in the number of dragons, Mariana had sensed that something would happen from the improvement in their quality.

I said to the king that I would find incompetence, but I did not intend to do so, and think about how I would defend my country.

"It might be a good idea to talk to Master Dragnis. If I knew my hometown was in danger, how could you possibly cooperate with him?"

"I see, Master Dragnis... who are you now... don't you know Mariana?

"I don't know. I wish I could get in touch with you... but why don't you leave the country now?"

"Hmm, let's hang on to Adventurer Alliance HQ for now. We have to do what we can."

"Oh...... right"

Something was about to happen around the world.

And it's not just a coincidence, it's guided by one will.

Its existence, which no one knows yet, is still quietly awaiting its time today.

――――――――――――――――――――――

"Mmmm..."

"Morning...... time is finite. You're not the only one, are you?

"Wow, I know! Please change two!

"Yes. What about Kennishveld?"

"I don't want it"

"So what about Richvek?

"I'll stay like this..."

The tier that received the two pieces I changed is niggered.

That's easy to understand. This kid...

Kenishveld looks at Tia like that and laughs kusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

He was a man with short black hair, black eyes and a beautifully grown jaw.

My age is in my late thirties and so on, I weave red capes with white fur on them, and I wear black clothes inside.

He carried his own golden sword, the sword "Tsugi", in a style such as "Wang".

Richveek looks at Tia with tender eyes like a mother watching her child.

Clear white skin, plus bright white from hair to eyes to the robe he was wearing.

"Then win......!

"Wait."

"What is it, Your Majesty! Ah, ha-ha... Now I'm scared..."

"Let's raise the stakes. Add three cookies for the rest"

"Nah......!

"Oh, so am I... three"

"Nah......!?

If you don't take it, the cookies Tia bet will disappear.

Of course winning will increase her cookies all at once......

"Hey, that was licked...... then I'll bet all the cookies I have!

You don't have any money. You have cookies... you don't have to tell me.

"Hmm... superimposed superimposition. Then we'll have to add the rest."

"Me too..."

Eighteen cookies were arranged on the field.

Looks delicious.

"I don't care what happens... all Levi's cookies are mine... guffaw"

How to laugh How to laugh......

"Then open your bills!

Strike the cards Tia had to her desk with momentum.

Oh......

"Heh heh heh... it's straight flash!

"" Royal Straight Flash ""

"There is!?

They say the legendary weaponry is also strong in luck.

Poor Tia......

"No, you too, Richvek. And the same as the rest..."

"That's an odd encounter. Then we'll split it up."

"Fine. Hey, Tia, make some tea."

"Ugh... Yes, Your Majesty..."

A few days after the battle with that demon tribe, we were still in a room at Celtic Castle.

He said I slept for about three days, and Mr. Zwed and Mr. Zawan traveled before I woke up.

They both left saying, "I'm not worried about anything because I'm determined to wake up".

Well, that's what happened.

Levy told me that King Celtic immediately initiated an investigation into the demons after restoring his body.

Based on the existence of a space transfer device and the increasing number of demons near the Celtic, it must have been a decision that the transfer had already taken place.

Celtic kings focus on areas with a particularly high number of demons, and as a result discover large underground spaces leading from caves.

He said he never went inside, but there was nothing inside.

But there were certainly traces of demons, such as demonic footprints and unique smells, and there seemed to be no doubt that they were destined for transfer.

As a result, the number of demons is now decreasing to the same level as before.

I mean, I didn't run outside.

Inhelm's space transfer device was destroyed, so there's no way he could go back, and after all, he didn't know where the demon had gone and said it was a dead end.

"Mr. Lord, please..."

"Mm-hmm. Thank you, Tia. You want some cookies?

"Yes, okay!?

"I lost, so just one? 'Cause Kennishveld's staring."

"Oh, thank you......!

Because of this, my body is back to normal thanks to Excalibur, and my magic is fully restored.

The power I had received from that man had disappeared, but the level of life magic seemed to have risen, and the number of life-giving subjects had increased to two.

I just don't know yet about that rusty sword, Tsugu.

I hadn't noticed it before, but I looked at the notebook often and it did have that page.

That page, which seemed to hide in the back the most, doesn't have a name on it, and I can't get Levi to look at it any more than I can.

This notebook glowed and the sword "Tsukugi" popped up on its own eventually remains a mystery to this day... that is for sure...

"Oh, Mr. Lord, is it time?

"Hmm? Oh, right. It's time."
