Next Life

Demon Festival - in a nutshell, the Wizard Pride Games of all nations.

Those elected by the kings of nations shall show their strength, and so shall be one of the materials by which the power of nations shall be likened.

Because a good wizard can also greatly improve national power.

Besides, there is no rule that a strong wizard must be sent out.

If you are prepared to be insulted and disadvantaged in all negotiations, you can take it out of your hands, or if you do well, you can be recognized as highly national.

The three strongest continents are said to be Lucas of Filato, Philip of Lanreo and Hemrut of Serraeno, but that does not mean that the three countries belong to the three strongest.

Is it Philato, Holdia, or Lanreo when it comes to the Three Kings?

These countries are adjacent to each other, and because there are other adjacent countries, it is harder to concentrate and beat up on one country somewhere.

The view is also reinforced that the frantic troop outpostings ahead of Holdia are not due to the impatience with which the equilibrium of national power cannot easily be broken.

And Marius was on his way to Bolton, king's capital of the kingdom of Boltner, host of the Demonic Festival with the royal line and Lucas, along with numerous escorts and samurai.

Bolton, the king capital of the Kingdom of Boltner, takes about ten days by carriage from Filatos.

It's a shorter line of distance, but between the two countries, the Shalom Mountains are said to be "the best insurance on the continent".

It was a harsh place to be told that only those capable of flying could live, and those who wanted to go to both countries often passed through Lanreo.

I'm staying overnight in Lanreo today.

Since this is an official event, it is necessary to show strength to other countries as well, and it was not "in the minimum number" as it was when Wyburn attacked it.

By the way, the chief officer of the escort is the former general, Grand Felt.

Marius and Lucas were in the same room as the two knights of the escort.

This is a security combination, but if you try Marius, you're going to protect the three of them.

"And this time, there are two contestants."

When the Boltner notices came, no one could hide the surprise, so Marius had questions.

"Could it be my fault? Like comparing you side by side with Lord Lucas?

"Probably. It's normal for the competition to go through the host country's thoughts to some extent, even though it's a lottery."

This time, there are two contestants from different countries and three competition events.

In all honesty, it should be beneficial to host country Boltner, Lucas said.

"We have a friendly relationship with our country, so you won't have to worry about this one."

"Is that what it is? It's not uncommon for countries to change attitudes when power relations change, right?

Lucas and the knights smiled somewhat bitterly at Marius's doubts.

"This may be the case when weaker countries become stronger, because from the beginning our country is a few steps stronger than Boltner"

It may be counterproductive if you go too far, continued.

I wonder if talking about going too far this period is stabbing the nail saying don't go too far.

Should I keep my mouth shut about what was instigated by Rovisa?

I got lost, but in the end Marius didn't say anything.

I still don't know how much power I can give.

As caregivers of Marius and Lucas, he had two beastly samurai.

One of them was a brunette girl who I had seen several times in the royal palace.

"My name is Aina. Best regards,"

When we first exchanged greetings, Marius laughed lovingly at the girl with her head peeled down somewhere else.

"You don't have to be so hard, because I'm kind"

"Yes, no. If the national magician has a crude minister, the head of the entire clan will fly, Mr. Helka."

(Hellkar!)

I almost screamed unexpectedly, but I had a hard time.

What the hell did you blow in when you thought you hadn't had a presence in a long time?

Now Aina and the other one, the red-haired Remica, totally broke it down, but when Lucas saw it,

"Lord Marius, you are surprisingly resistant to women."

and there was also an act of strange admiration.

Perceiving signs of envy, Marius chose the return method of laughing niggardly without excusing anything, with the result of making Lucas regret.

Now two samurai make four cups of tea, including an escort.

It is Tariant's legend that one of Lanreo's famous products is lemon, and lemon tea with this is excellent.

Marius found out in her own tongue that it was neither false nor exaggerated.

"Delicious."

Marius and Lucas' voices overlap.

Aina broke her face when she saw it.

It was she who brewed the two lemon teas.

"Good. Like Emma taught me to do."

"I wonder if you're close to Lord Emma or Lord Helka."

It was of course Marius who raised this question.

"Yes. Me and Remica took care of Herka and Emma during our apprenticeship..."

Emma was a very unimaginable Marius that Helka would take care of her junior year anyway, but she stopped putting it into words.

"It's a scone, try it"

That's what I say. I'll take one that Remica's been offering.

Remica seems to be an eater, paired with scones for making jams and creams of various flavors, and today's jams were strawberries.

"Yeah, yummy"

Marius and Lucas pound their tongues, recommending them to the samurai as well.

The samurai also responded to the recommendation and relaxed their mouths to the point where their work was at stake.

The knights of the escort stand outside the room during this time.

Unfortunately, their identities and character are lower than those of the samurai, and even if Marius and the samurai enjoy their tea and keep it with them, no escort will be added.

"Only the fruit kingdom can prepare good things."

And Remica said.

Needless to say, the fruit kingdom is another name for Lanreo.

The specialty is lemon, but other fruits are said to be quite famous.

(For that matter, it could fall more than Emma's...)

Most of all, it may be harsh to compare to Emma because she seems to tend to be followed by people as tall as the good ones.

I can't imagine Marius being better than Emma.

Besides, I feel like I'm beating Helka.

Praising them for saying so, they turned their eyes round and thanked Marius.

"I can't believe you're better than Herka..."

"Oh, thank you"

Whatever it was in Marius, he seemed like an excellent senior to both of us.

Meanwhile, Lucas was silently tearing without saying a word.

It was as if watching Marius and the samurai interact.

I have the impression that I am reluctant to be a samurai or to be somewhere against Lucas.

Marius waved the subject to Lucas, even as he perceived such an atmosphere.

"What kind of country is Lanreo after Filato and Holdia?"

What Marius expected was information about what kind of person would come at the Demon Show Festival.

Lucas was lost for a moment, but decided there was nothing to hide and replied.

"This is a country that has been hostile to my country since its founding."

This is the first time Marius has heard that if Philato loses, he will be chased for his position.

It is also one of the major reasons why we cannot open a war with Holdia in a detour.

"With the full cooperation of Lord Marius, we will fight and lose at the same time as Holdia and Lanreo."

That is why it is foolish to bother to fight multiple countries at the same time.

Even the country is damaged.

"The fruit is delicious, but as a Fillato, it's not an interesting opponent"

Remica flaunts her face.

"The country where you make delicious things is great," Marius imagined, smiling, because she doesn't look good enough.

"There is little substantial damage, but on something, Lanreo should not be hustled and hustled above Filato..."

Eina answers the confusion.

He says that upstream aristocrats of high pride and others hate Lanreo even more than Holdia, who has gotten worse.

Reveal some of the information Lucas knows.

Intelligence sources say Lanreo has successfully crusaded Wyburn and is breathing "without fear, such as Marius".

"But many of the elites died," he added, smiling bitterly, and Lucas, who heard it, laughed bitterly, "as always."

When he told Marius about this, Marius rounded his eyes, and his mouth made a large circle.

"Huh...? I don't know what you're talking about."

I couldn't understand what kind of thought circuit I was doing, such as not being scared, even though so many elite people were dead to defeat one Wyburn.

I didn't want to be afraid, but I felt something I couldn't keep up with.

"It's Lanreo who's hostile to our country anyway like that. Thanks to the implicit understanding of the example, this period can pass without anything. We need to show our national authority to these gatherings and make Lanreo look good."

Eina and Remica also nod slightly uncomfortably.

Like Marius, all three of them, including Lucas, can't keep up with Lanreo's idea.

And if it was a total confrontation with Holdia, the view that it would come into play with great joy was overwhelming in the country.

Lucas sees five minutes with Marius' full cooperation if he is to fight Holdia and Lanreo at the same time.

Because Marius' firepower needs something called travel time, even when it's unprecedented.

I won't have a hard time defending the border, as I started Fort Valdera and finished touring the streets......

"Could Holdia have foreseen that too?

Lucas nodded instantly at Marius' doubts.

"It's a theory of results, but I think it's like madness wisdom, with multiple reasons behind it, not just madness"

It can also be predicted from movements as if to seal the power of "Tears of the Moon Goddess".

They were truly abominable to Marius.

I bought my hostility confidently for a good reason.

Protecting against Lanreo while attacking Holdia is difficult for Marius because of distance problems.

(I figured it would be best to show him something in the eye with the Demon Show Festival)

If Boltner favours Fillato only, he will prepare an environment in which Marius can demonstrate his power while making the competition content in his country's favor.

No matter how clever Holdia is, she can't even be discerning the bottom of Marius' power.

(Unless you have something like my sage correction)

If you are a top position, you will have corrective skills, and some people may be born with them because they are not in the game world.

Probably should have it around Emma, too, Marius had an idea.

I just didn't think the Holdians had it.

Because if you have it, you won't act like everyone is "mad" or "crazy" and mouth-watering.

So did the demons in the forces of not knowing what they were thinking.

(What are you doing now?

Marius slipped his inner neck.

Thinking normally, things like this one are a good opportunity for raids.

The kings and the main powers of each country will meet together, and they will be away from the country for more than half a month.

The human state will undoubtedly be confused if we aim for one or the other.

Since the event has never been interrupted since the first round, I guess there have been no raids aimed at this time of year, but that was the other way around.

If you have any other plans, you may need to catch the demon and use "psychometry" on the body.

It's hard to work for the country.

Marius thought smudged as she looked at the backs of the samurai who had gone to plug the excess scones into the escorts after tea.
