Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru

More than a dozen minutes ago...

"Come on, we have to rush down for once."

Before the spiral staircase leading along the giant hole, the king opened his mouth somewhere happy.

Naturally he also understands that there is imminent danger to himself.

Still, he enjoyed the situation.

To be honest, the king himself doesn't know why that is.

critical situation of being next to death.

Is it from some sort of exhilaration that comes from it, or from the joy that new materials may be available again, or... something else?

"... Your Majesty, I have Emina now"

To some extent he perceived the mood of such a king, and Linaria advanced so in a calm voice.

"Oh, right! Then hurry up...... ah!

"Duh, what have you done?

"No! I've forgotten this before! Look! The girls we met yesterday!

"Huh? Oh... you mean that material?

Linaria's gaze is directed diagonally downward.

Tia and Asna are trapped...... to the cage.

"Yes, yes! We talked about doing it today, didn't we? Just in time. Come on... let's take him with us."

"Uh... Oh, no, but, Your Majesty, in the present circumstances it is..."

"Huh? Doesn't matter? This isn't the first place you're gonna find out, and even if you do, you guys are here, right? Well, assuming it didn't work...... you can treat her with a large incorporation. No?"

"... Yes, sir."

It is only futile to argue with the king that this has happened.

Linaria understood it from her previous experience.

"Yes it is! Go."

As if he were a child going to buy a toy, the king's footsteps were light and delightful again.

Mad King's words and deeds.

The vast majority of humans would be uncomfortable with it and try to distance themselves.

Still, the loyalty of the Seven Shadows is unshakeable.

Because they were once oppressed.

With their appearance, with their temperament, or gender, heretical magic, distorted sexuality, etc… they were isolated from society for various reasons.

People measure others with the rules that are in them.

It is common sense, or morality or ethics, common to society that forms its statutes.

One asks for that average and discriminates against those who go beyond it.

Instinctive elimination.

Unconscious persecution.

Even with a slight sense of guilt, many people trump that they have no choice.

Even though common sense, morality, ethics, etc. can vary in any way depending on the environment.

But the king's rules were different.

Its heavily distorted rules are not sought from the outset, such as averages.

His rules were designed to measure those special things, such as sensibilities that deviated from society in general, tough spirituality through me, or overwhelming combat power.

They were along it.

That is why he was found and allowed to stand by the king.

And that became the immunity of seven of them.

Society recognises them and stops measuring them with its own rules.

The king admitted it.

Therefore, you must not deny it.

"Your Majesty, watch your step..."

"Yes, sir."

That's why they follow the king.

Ahead, no matter what.

"... hey"

Eventually in the cage we reached, two girls sat shoulder to shoulder.

"Thank you for waiting. Well, let's go."

Unlock the lock and Linaria and Boggs go inside.

The two girls were staring at it silently.

"... don't waste any resistance. Because I hate things that don't make sense."

Linaria tells them to restrain themselves.

In the end, Tia and Asna couldn't get out of jail.

The cage was more robust than expected, and Tia's magic couldn't help it.

But the shackles that suppress magic are out due to Asuna's skills.

Therefore, defiance is possible.

It's just bad conditions now.

The two of them chose to take charge of Boggs without resisting.

……

In the eyes of the two men who were in charge and went out of the cage, they saw a girl with the same restraint and frightened expression as they did.

Elements that were not in yesterday's conversation.

Asuna thought aggressively that he was as captured and caged as they were, but immediately denied it.

There were several reasons for that.

First and foremost, from last night until tomorrow morning, despite all that calling, there was no reaction whatsoever.

Secondly, that the kings were undoubtedly coming down from above and that their footsteps were straight this way.

That meant she wasn't here originally and was brought directly from somewhere.

In addition, there are more escorts than yesterday.

Besides, not all of them.

"A moment later, something unforeseen may have happened" … and Asuna thought so.

"All right, then, Emina... nice to meet you"

"Yes, Your Majesty. I don't know... ugh!

That's when Emina's gaze moves up.

And those eyes increased sharpness.

"... Emina"

"Yes, Captain... it's an intruder. Someone touched the distortion" hizu "in the entrance space I had laid just in case."

"Chip... wasn't it just me after all? Emina, go to the deepest part anyway. I think about the response."

Copy that.

Immediately afterwards, a bright light spreads around the area, which covers the kings.

To such a glare, Tia and Asna accidentally closed their eyes.

When I eventually opened my eyes when I stopped feeling the light, there was -

"What... this..."

Stand in line as far as I can see, there was something in armor.

"Hmph... This is an artificial Demon Stone Airman (High Golem)"

"Artificial Demon Stone Soldier (High Golem) …?"

"Yes. Sumerian has created… a weapon that will lead the world to peace. You are at its core. [M] This is an honor, isn't it?

"Hey, say what...!?

"Your Majesty..."

"I know. I just don't like breaking promises... you know?

"... Yes, I did. Then I will be at Your Majesty's side. And then, you know what?

"Fine, so..."

"Ha... Boggs, Dundee, put those guys down. I'll carry the rest."

"Rikai"

……

Three people, Tia, Asna and Sofia, were lowered to the ground, and Linaria looked down at them, then took a deep breath and turned forward.

"Look, you guys! Now activate the Artificial Demon Stone Soldier (High Golem) and unlock all of this underground space! Do you understand each interception point?

"No problem"

"It's okay."

"Oops."

"... the enemy probably has comparable power to ours. Deal with it as best you can. And remember that one of your defeats is directly related to His Majesty's life... never forget."

"I know, Captain...!

"I will destroy you."

"Okay...... scatter!

Taking Linaria's life, the six left the scene at the same time.

I can't see them anymore. No, she took out the communications demon stone and carried it to her mouth with magic.

"... it's me. An intruder entered the basement. This activates the Artificial Demon Stone Airmen (High Golem) and destroys the enemy. Mm, oh... naturally His Majesty has accepted. Run it fast."

"Hmm... it's getting fun. Oh, Linaria?

"... I understand, Your Majesty. Uh, can you hear me? Because of this, yesterday's case is still alive. I will go to the workshop with His Majesty now. Get ready... yes. Large. Possible use. Be well prepared. Good?...... hmm. Then we'll be on our way shorter than this......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Your Majesty, let's come."

"Yes, sir. I mean, can you handle three?

"Use artificial demon stone fighters (high golems) for work there. That doesn't incorporate an attack circuit, so there's no harm done here."

"I see. So, you want me to tell you something about Sophia on the road?

"... ugh!

"Just now, you said you came looking for your father and mother... that's what you said, right?

"Ah... it... is... the..."

Sophia was frightened by a fear she had never felt before.

For her to live in Sumeria, King Robert was a hero who developed the country, naturally with respect.

But now the king's expression, his voice and his words were all turned into objects of awe.

"Come on, Sophia, what's your father... being an adventurer?

"... Huh?

Blood was drawing from Sophia's face.

My lips are cut dry and my opposite eyes get wet in tears.

"Hmph! So, your mother's a former adventurer... no?

"Wha...!

"Can't you do it? I thought so! Because they look a lot alike! Yeah, yeah! Hey, Linaria, I'm pretty sure that's Sophia's full name. Come on..."

"Please wait... Okay, you made a move. Yes, Your Majesty. The person's name is Sophia-Vitor... to the daughter of Grog-Vitor and Natalie-Vitor who became the subject... no doubt."
