Munou To Yobareta Ore, Yottsu No Chikara Wo Eru

"I see..."

"So, the stage of choice is Lord's missionary ceremony... and generally speaking, it's a big event with Zadiak's liver in it." from them, it's a perfect opportunity to do nothing more..... "

Mr. Byrne said that and glanced toward the window.

At the end of his gaze, he was pointing to the center of Olympus.

"Finally, we have a point of convergence." So, as expected, Zadiak stood up. On the other hand, I deliberately left the venue outside the castle... and the bastard decided to settle it. "

I see.

Mr. Burn replied with a smile to Mr. Zeed, who said so.

"Kneeling... either way, it seems like a bad bet for the Resistance." In addition to the Olympus Knights' elite being the most vigilant... there's a lot of us in the venue. "

Certainly... the venue is outside the second gate, so although the magic is somewhat easier to use than in the area where the castle is located, the Olympus Knights' elite and the fact that they defeat King Zadiak in front of these people... is quite reckless, isn't it?

“Is it true that the Resistance has already folded in?”

"I bet you're pretty confident. And then, for some other reason....."

"Another reason?"

"It's just that magic is easy to use." I just don't feel like that's all there is to it. "

What do you think?

"Ah... I guess so."

"The Lord's guess is right..."

”I guess... it's easy to hit me like I don't like it anymore”

Mr. Volksfang and Mr. Zuid sighed at the same time.

... it must have been like that before.

"Well, whatever it takes... just be vigilant." Whatever they do, they just do what needs to be done... we don't. "

Well...

I see.

"Especially Lord, you're going to be on stage with King Zadiak... and you're going to be able to move around at any time."

"Yes, I know."

And one more thing.

Mr. Byrne raises his index finger with a serious glance.

"I think you already know, but there are three SSS ranks who will not attend this mission ceremony... Dee and Luca are running to suppress the war in the north." And then Beatrice went to the ruins of Azra, one of the four dungeons in the south, on the orders of the guild headquarters. "

"Are you investigating the ruins of Azra...?"

We used to enter the Magna Ruins to the west of Greek territory.

The aim is to crush Fenrir, the god-beast found in the deepest depths.

Maybe something happened again?

"Huh, Beato's gone." I thought maybe we'd come back here and talk about it... but I'm so relieved. "

"Huh? Mr. Volksfang, that's..."

"Huh? Oh, did I say that? Ever since you crushed the Divine Beast with Magna, the Senate has been in a terrible panic. I asked the Adventurer's Guild to find out what was going on with the other three."

"I see..."

Certainly, if Magna had a Divine Beast, it wouldn't be strange for her to be anywhere else.

The Senate is right in its thinking.

Even if one of them were to go outside, it would cause terrible damage.

Well, I went to the Avarisk in the north, and the Sleeping Beauty was sent to Datandos in the east.

"So what's the result...?"

"There was nothing... but there was a sign of something."

"Ugh! That's...!"

"A lot of dragons and monster carcasses... they've been eaten up." Vivien said the same thing. But as I said before, by the time we got to the deepest depths... it was already gone. "

There was a Divine Beast... in the other ruins.

What the hell were they doing over there?

Rational [Things]... what is it?

"Probably a similar result in the south...... but for now, just leave that story alone." Lord, that's not what I was trying to say. "

Ah... I see.

Is that what you're talking about?

"In other words, there are only three SS ranks that don't come..."

"... I know, Mr. Byrne."

Yes... I saw him for the first time in Ist that day.

He was shining.

Back then, I was in the mud, struggling, scratching my legs and desperately living.

The world I live in... it's too far away, I envy it, I'm frustrated, before that... it has nothing to do with me... he was like that.

But he came into my world.

To be precise, my--

"They don't know anything about me." Even if you know that you're from Ist, you probably won't know. I'll deal with it calmly. ”

"... I see."

I can't forgive you for what you did to Asuna.

Definitely get it back.

The magic of Asuna.

But not yet.

Anyway, for now, let's focus on protecting King Zadiak.

I'm curious about what she wants to tell me, and above all, I don't want to see someone die in front of me... well, with these people...

"Alright, let's make some predictions about their hands." Levi, wake up that drooling idiot. "

"Ah, yes, Master Byrne... but are you sure?" Lord Vivien is sleeping under the constraint of magic..... "

"No, it's just a slumber. He's been asleep ever since he fought the dragons."

"Oh, I see..."

”I love... roast chicken...”

It's okay... maybe.

―――――――――――――――――――――

Zadiak King Banzai!

Congratulations Lord!

Your Majesty, look at me!!

"Ha ha ha ha! Everyone is a cause!" It's going to be a big boost this time! "

"Ah, um... Your Majesty...!"

"I don't know what you're doing, Lord!" Don't you wave! "

"Eh, ah, ha, yes! gentlemen....."

On a giant carriage, Lord waved as Zadiak told him to.

In response, a large audience filled the main street with loud cheers.

"J, you know you're being targeted...?"

Did you say something, Lord?

Ahh!

Catching his own words mixed with cheers, Lord's breath stops.

"No... no, nothing!"

"Really? Oh, this way too!" Ha ha ha ha ha ha! "

Standing up from a fence mounted on a carriage, Zadiak continues to wave at the people.

He stroked his chest down, and Lord waved his hand at the people he was talking to, looking like he was smelling again.

This is an extremely dangerous situation where you are surrounded by so many people in a place that is so easy to be targeted.

He is rightly worried, but in reality it is no exaggeration to say that he is sad.

It was the death of a man in a carriage.

Grado-Woledos, Head of the Second Knights of Olympus.

The man meditates on his eyes, sits kneeling, and is only there.

That's all we need to protect Zadiak.

By his magic.

All in all, Zadiak had invited him.

"Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on."

When Zadiak muttered that in his heart...

"Whoa!?"

Suddenly, countless white pigeons flew from both ends of the road.
