Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru
Lesson 208: The Five Swords Emperor
Find out everything...
After all, it doesn't seem hostile to Lord.
"I'm sure Levi was very troubled, wasn't he? I don't know how to tell me... so I was going to shut up and drop him off. Whether they say it or not... Shut up..."
No... don't cry.
How long have I been like this...
"But I couldn't. I knew I didn't want to leave... but I don't remember! I was watching Levi trying to leave the room...... Me......!
Moments, my body looked back on its own...... I was holding Lord.
Oh... I can't...
"Les, Levi......"
"... sorry Lord. I can't believe I'm trying to go silently...... I'm disqualified as a maid. But if I don't go here, I don't even deserve to live with you. That's all... I can't."
"Huh! But...!
"Even in my opposite position, I'm sure you stopped Lord. In fact, that's when I tried to stop you. We talked about that, didn't we?
"Ah..."
That day, Lord chose to fight Yormungand.
To protect me… and hence the lives of many.
Given the circumstances then, I'd say it's a miracle that we're doing this now.
Even the body was worn out, and I dealt with that monster.
But...
"When I left with Lord, it was really... really hard. also, i guess i'll never see you again...... but...... gush...... lo, Lord is back! Wow, to fulfill my promise...!
Yes... Promise.
Lord protected me properly.
So......!
"... now it's my turn. Here's two...... I also thought about watching the end of the battle, Sausage. But I can't...! I've seen your back! So ugh! I have to fight......!
With my face buried in Lord's chest, I bump that thought.
But this is not my only thought.
This thought has walked with Lord… because it is what is on its path.
"Ah..."
That's when Lord's left hand held my back tight.
"Levi... Still, I...!
If you can...... I want to stay in Lord's arms like this.
But...!
"Huh......!?
I looked up...... overlaid my lips with him.
Long... long...
Eventually where his powers weakened...... I leave him softly.
And I made the best smile.
"Be sure... be sure to go to your... Lord... I will return. Promise…"
"... ugh!
"I'm coming... Dear Lord"
Without waiting for Lord's word, I left the room behind.
――――――――――――――――――――――
Doors to open.
Levi leaving.
Close the door.
I couldn't say anything.
If you open the door, Levi will still be there.
If you want to catch up, you can catch up.
But my body didn't move.
I can't stop you anymore... because I get it.
"Damn......"
Tell me about it.
How could I have lost my memory?
I could have fought with her if I remembered.
Hey, me before I lost my memory.
Is that okay?
You... just wait here for me to come home...!
"... that's no good."
I take the notebook out of the drawer.
In the end, the magic was unusable and the notebook remained open.
But we still have time.
Two days until the battle begins.
Not as it is now.
Even if I'm forced to follow you, I'll just scold Levi for his thoughts.
Then you just have to catch up.
To Levi's thoughts.
"Isn't that right..." Me "...!"
From what I hear, I hear you were the one who wouldn't give up.
Then so am I.
"Wait for me. I'll make sure they catch up.
That's how I worked out my magic.
――――――――――――――――――――――
"This is... the Imperial City of Olympus..."
Our group of adventurers, including Lady Adeed, had arrived at Olympus in an instant thanks to the magic of Lady Viper.
We're out of town.
Only huge steel walls can be seen from there, and from here it is hard to see them inside.
But that wall, which continues as far as I can see, eloquently told the enormity of this town.
Around that wall many soldiers are moving irrevocably and are being chased to prepare for a battle that will soon begin.
A large number of carriages packed with large quantities of supplies line up, and naturally the number of soldiers is unusual.
It was so much too much no longer to know how much.
"Very much so... I'm not allowed inside the town. Viper, where's Friedrich's headquarters?
"is... over there"
At the tip of Lord Viper's finger, there are countless tents on there, and I can see something big in them.
Indeed, he left for Greece early tomorrow morning and said he would start the battle the morning after tomorrow.
That is only provisional headquarters, and I guess it will be dismantled tomorrow morning.
"Okay, here we come. Oh, I don't mind the lords staying free, but don't meet me there once tonight. Come to HQ by then. Okay?"
Confirming that they all nodded, Lady Adeed headed to headquarters with Lady Viper.
All that's left is Dear Zuid, Dea, Blance, Luca, Vivian, Volksfang, and me and Solomon.
I feel a tremendous gaze from the soldiers around me because of it.
After few opportunities to see SSS Rank Adventurers in the first place, there would be no impossibility if we had gathered this much.
"Well, you're free"
Master Zwed doesn't seem to care about it either, he groans so as he looks around lightly.
"Right. You can't go into town, and hang out appropriately?
"Where's Noon? He's moving his body. I'll see you later."
"Oh, well, can I hang out with you?
"I don't mind, Luca. Let's go then."
"Well, I... I was wondering if even a little cute would look for me"
"I'll go, too, because I'm free"
"Dee, Brance... just keep it that way, okay?
"Wow, old man. Bye."
We still have quite a bit of time until night.
Speaking of which, Jill and Graudi should already be at the Greek army...... maybe you should say hello.
"I will go to Lady Jill, but what will be done to Lady Zwed and Lady Vivien?
"Well, I'll follow you because I'm free."
"I will accompany you."
"Well, I'll show you around."
"" "" Wow!?
Bit, surprised...... suddenly in front of me......
Dear Inea, do metastatic wizards like to surprise people?
"Hmm? What are you so surprised about?
"Ba, Dear Viper... Didn't they head to HQ...?
"Um. His Majesty is already in command at headquarters. I was going to be on your side, but your majesty told me to show him where to sleep today. So, I came back... but I didn't think I'd be half way there in this short time."
"SSS rank is a gathering of free men."
"I think that's especially true of Mr. Zwed..."
Indeed.
"Well fine. I'll tell those who are gone later. Then we go first to where the Greek army is, then to where we are staying..."
Unexpectedly, Master Viper took his gaze off and when we were caught up in it and looked at you, we saw one big man approaching us.
The person in white armor slowly approaches us and opens his mouth after a gentle thank you.
"Long time no see, Viper. You'll soon find out in those purple clothes. How many years?
"Zail... we met three months ago"
"What!? Shh!?"
"... we would have met in a joint exercise"
"... sorry. I forgot."
Pretty much against the looks......
He is 185cm tall.
Golden eyes on the same white and short hair as armor.
Seems like a pretty high knight to observe from the beautiful decorations of the sword Tsugu, Shield, and Armor......
"Ha... well. Let me introduce you. This man is Zaire. He is the leader of the Sixth Knights of Olympus. In this battle he has become the general of the Olympus army... one"
This is more... kind of surprising...
Thanks, Olympus doesn't have a very good impression. I just thought it would be better if I didn't have a nose.
"Don't say it all at once. Oh, I'm sorry I'm late for greeting you more than that. Zaire. Nice to meet you."
"My name is Levi. Best regards,"
"I'm Solomon. Say hello."
"It's Zuid."
"It's Vivian."
"I'm honored to be able to fight with SSS Rank Adventurers. Let me count on you."
"I'll just do it. Let me count on you."
"Mm-hmm. I'm in full swing, too. Well... so are you..."
"While we were young, we also had adventurers… we were on the brink of Greece and were invited to participate in this battle"
"Right!... Hmm, I thought you were just a maid of honor but this is pretty good... you guys are going to depend on it"
"No... because I'm still in training. Let me try not to disturb you. For Greece."
"Right...... Greece is a good country. We have to get it back... for the world."
I still think I can trust this one.
If this is all you have, Olympus too......
"And Lord Din, by the way? Aren't we together?
"Oh, Master Din left the country a while ago. There's another case."
"No, that's too bad. There would be a hundred of them... no, it's 10,000 manpower."
"Right...... so, it's Zaire. Are you sure you want to stay here?
"Hmm? I was looking around at the progress with the encouragement of the soldiers... bad?
"... why do you think I'm here?
"... Dear Adeed, are you already here?
"There must have been a circular. When we arrived this morning."
"... then I'm with this!
That said, Master Zaire ran to HQ at full speed.
... who can't hate you.
"Oh man... I wish that had stayed the First Knights regiment leader... but if so, wouldn't you be here"
"Huh? What do you mean?
"Mm-hmm... Zaire was head of the First Knights. Until Zadiac became king."
"Oh, did you!? That's better..."
"Hmm. Shall we talk on foot?"
We walk out following Master Viper.
I thought I heard an anger from HQ then... I'm sure it's my fault.
"Zaire usually does. But strength is real. Plus there's a lot of trust from my men. It has a backless personality... and was highly regarded by other countries. But I guess Zadiak didn't like that guy. If you think I'm wrong, you're the one who can't help but talk. Besides, Zaire was the man most trusted by his predecessor King Olympus... because Zadiac wasn't close to his predecessor. Maybe he didn't like it either."
"I see..."
"So, he demoted Zaire and pulled out a brilliant adventurer to welcome him to the Knights Commander. Speaking of which, I hear the Zuides were also called out?
"Hmm? Oh, that happened, too. If I say no to you in two replies, you're so pretty. I would have busted him because I was annoyed. So is Vivian, right?
"Wow, I politely declined!
"Sounds like Master Zuid..."
"Huh... So Olympus, who was turned down by them, looks to the five SS ranked adventurers who had momentum then. They were even said to be SSS ranked sooner or later. That's what the current" Five Swords Emperor "is all about. They're strong... but I don't like them as people."
"Well, personality. But their strength is real. A little under our generation. And there was a lot of noise in the world about the" golden generation coming back! ", but since I joined the Olympus Army, information has been regulated. Since then, their information has hardly been available to the public."
"That's what it means to belong to the military. I try not to talk normally either. Your Majesty's position as SS captain means nothing bad. So, some of them told me that they were fools who sold their souls for money, Zadiak's dogs, but they didn't make much noise. Everyone is scared of Olympus. All right, this neighborhood will be an area for the Greek army. I'm here, so I hope you'll finish your greeting."
"Thank you, Master Viper. Okay, I'm coming."
What will Lord do by now?
I was trying not to think about it, but as soon as I finished talking, that immediately came to my mind.
But it's a decision.
And I'll definitely go home.
After defeating the Dragon Clan and reclaiming Greece.
――――――――――――――――――――――
Imagine.
Turn magic into life and give it.
That's my magic.
And he said it could be done as a matter of course.
"Phew..."
It's been two days since Levi left Celtic.
Tomorrow morning, the battle "Sausage" begins.
I don't have... time anymore.
