"Get in."

At the word of King Celtic, the door slowly opens.

From there two knights appeared, and when they stopped near the couch, they knelt down to King Nieberg and King Celtic.

"Sorry I'm late. Wyndham-Gadrium-Celt, now back. Dear Adeed, we're out of time."

This man is the son of King Celtic......

There are differences in hairstyles, lack of mustaches, etc., but they still look a lot like King Celtic.

My body is bigger than King Celtic...... looks strong.

"I apologize for the delay as well. Llana-Buster, I am returning now. It's an honor to see you again, Master Adeed."

"Uhm. We're both more than anything in a breath disaster"

"Thanks to you. Um... by the way, are they...?

Turning his hand to us, Mr. Wyndham asked King Celtic with a strange face.

That would be so.

That's what happens if they're in the king's room, which I've never even seen.

"Oh well. You didn't know your faces because you were in Olympus. [M] He's the Lord."

"Ah! This is disrespectful...!

"Oh, no, no! I'm late to say hello..."

Apparently, King Celtic was telling us something.

We panicked and knelt down to Mr. Wyndham.

"Well, let's talk about that later. Anyway, they were both dauntless. Eddie, I'm sorry about the chair."

"No, Master Eddie, I... Master Wyndham, please"

"Oh, I'm sorry, Llana. Thanks."

Mr. Lyana stood next to Mr. Eddie after putting out a chair to Prince Wyndham.

This man is the head of the Celtic army...... he does look young, as King Celtic said.

She has red, long hair tied behind her back and wrapped in red full plate mails. He had a beautiful, shining silver sword on his waist, the Tsugaru.

Those sharp eyes don't look anywhere, they look like they're staring at everything in the room.

"Well, I'm sorry to be so quick, but let me talk to you."

"Ha...... but no progress has been made with this. The two armies continue to stare at each other, with small skirmishes happening sporadically. We made some terms and proceeded with the peace negotiations, but Rae still doesn't have the ears to listen"

"Well... what's Rae thinking..."

"This is my personal view... but Rae shouldn't seem to be enjoying the situation."

"I mean... you think this situation is what Rae's after?

"I don't know that much... but it's not an attack, it's not a deal. I'm glad we're taking the lead... that's the impression."

I see......

It's like we're at the heart of the world... it's not strange that we're in that mood.

We're swinging three of the top five countries: Tea Turn, Olympus, and Celtic.

"You're immersed in joy... but you're weak as a motive"

"Oh, it's too risky to get that pleasure. Of course there's something else going on."

"There must be a reason. Now we have to figure it out and stop the fight. But Nieberg can't move in a detour. Sorry for Olympus and Celtic..."

"I guess. Rare to Nieberg territory is too close. Get your hands on the detour..."

"Oh...... some Nieberg towns and villages may disappear. I can't just let that happen."

The towns and villages of Nieberg... disappear.

Right...... Rare is adjacent to Kneeberg territory.

If Nieberg moves poorly, there is no guarantee that Rae won't get his hands on them.

Moreover, if Nieberg returns to Rae, the situation will worsen.

"Mr. Lord......"

The ist is in a faster position to count from the north...... I guess Tia noticed that and got anxious.

"Tia, it's okay. This isn't going to happen any time soon."

I know exactly how Tia feels though.

Anyone would naturally be anxious to hear suddenly that their town might be caught in a war.

I'm the same.

"Bye. There is still respite. I can't stand up for myself, but my concubine, Straw, is going to cooperate. Let's keep it that way until Byrne and the others grab something."

"Oh. But it's too late today... I'll see you tomorrow for the rest. I hope you're temporarily dissolved, Adeed?

"Fine. So what are the Lords going to do after this?

"We will return to Ist soon after this. After that, we'll be back on the journey. I'm going to do what I can. And stronger."

"Well... sooner or later we may have the help of our lords. Please say hello then."

――――――――――――――――――――――

Then we went back to our room and started packing.

That said, I almost finished it.

"It was a surprise."

I just finished packing my last package in my bag, and that's what Levi said about the potpourri.

"What?

"I'm not sure... I thought I'd say something unscrupulous again"

I was surprised, too.

Levy followed me without saying anything to me about what I've been scattering about.

But maybe I had a lot of inner struggle.

I guess you were sweet on Levi before you knew it. I am.

But it's not the same anymore.

In many ways.

"You thought I was going north to stop the war, didn't you?... Well, I've been saying it till this time. Have you grown a little?

"Yeah, pretty much. I'm relieved."

Levi laughs happily.

Lovely.

"I can't do it all... but there's got to be something I can do. Besides, they'll call you if they have to."

"Right...... so what are you going to do in the future?

"I guess from collecting information again...... I'll send Tia to Ist and we'll go to countries and towns that haven't been there yet. While the arsenals have grown again, and their wishes have been fulfilled."

"I see. Good idea."

"More later..."

At that time, the door of the room is knocked.

When I replied, King Celtic showed up with Mr. Wyndham and Mr. Lyana.

Tia also looks out from behind it.

"Your Majesty... I was going to say hello here..."

"Never mind. I'm not asking because they really want to thank you."

"Thank you again, Lord. Thank you for saving my father."

"Thank you from yourself, too. Thank you for saving my king's life… I will pay you back."

That's what I can say. I can bow my head deeply to both of you.

I stopped it in a hurry.

"Because it was a real coincidence... and I'm better saved. Thank you very much."

"No! It's cheaper than life. I haven't repaid my debt yet... so take this. I'm sure it'll help you."

That's what King Celtic said and gave me two sheets of paper.

One is a map, something with letters on it.

The other one is apparently a letter.

"Your Majesty, is this...?

"It is the place of whoever wrote the map of Inhelm. He is my best friend and master of Byrne. Do you want to be strong? Then there's no harm in meeting him."

"Mr. Byrne's Master......"

Look closely at the letters written on the map.

There was me... no, there was a name engraved on it that everyone in the world would know.

"This man..."

"Yes, his name is Sieg-Explosion. Once upon a time... a man called a brave man."
