On the other hand, around that time.

At the royal castle in the kingdom of Arceus.

”Phewaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Laymira Li Arceus, the Lady Wang, stretched her torso in a sitting position.

- I'm tired.

After all, sedentary work doesn't suit me.

I'd like to go out and move around if I can, but from a standpoint, that's not really the case.

In fact, there are piles of documents piled up in front of us.

It's not a rush, but I'd like to see it through as much as I can.The next queen can't be frustrated here.

Besides... you promised.

He and I will defend the kingdom of Arseus.

With that in mind, it doesn't matter if you struggle a little.Because spending time with him with a smile is more a pleasure for me than anything else.

"Fufufufu... when it settles down, I'll do something like that with Arios..."

― ― Lady La. Lady Raymilla?

Wow!

Ray jumped up wide and almost slipped out of his chair unexpectedly.

When I turned my face to you, there was a female soldier in her thirties.

Miller Camilo.

A soldier escorting Ray's private quarters.

"I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorryAhahah..... "

”No, no... I know Lord Reimira well enough to do his best.”

"Um, yeah... thanks"

Actually, I was only thinking about Arios.....

Don't touch it.

"So... what's wrong?" What can I do for you? "

"Yes, I just received information from my men."― ― The remnants of the Arceus Salvation Party have reappeared.

"Eh...... I'll...... again......"

"Yes. I heard you were safely restrained by the adventurer, but you kept standing here..."

"Yeah... that's right..."

Ray sighed unexpectedly.

Even though the same thing happened the other day, I didn't expect the Arceus Salvation Party to come again.

With the party leader in custody, the members must be confused.

According to reports, the leader of the party, Manusa, had been quite deified.....

Maybe you haven't even thought about making the next top.

So, what do the members say?

"No... that's [give me back the party leader] again, but [we will save the kingdom]..."I'm only saying the same thing as the members who were captured the other day. ”

"I see..."

Absolutely out of order.

Honestly, I'm struggling with understanding.

But--Arceus Salvation Party is also a victim of aliens.

First Prince Raphael and party leader Manusa were manipulated into consciousness by Comrade A and developed Out-Avnir without knowing the reason.

- It is believed that the action will be the salvation of the kingdom of Arceus.

Of course, that doesn't clear up past sins, but it's true that you're a victim.

"Hey, can I ask you a favor?"

"Yes, what is it?"

"I want to talk to the rest of them." Do you mind? "

"Is that...? Lady Raymilla?"

"Yeah. Then I have one more favor to ask..."



Die Race Detention Center is about an hour away by carriage from the capital of the kingdom.

It is said that the Arceus Salvation Party is detained here.

The watchman, of course, says that there are elite military personnel here.

Even in the unlikely event of trouble, we can be flexible.

"Les, Princess Reimira...!"

"What a beauty...!"

Sentinels at once correct their postures.

Ray waved at them as he stepped forward, guided by Miller.

Even though I had walked through the Shura together with Arios until now, the atmosphere of the detention center was unaccustomed.Including this one, I think it's my own challenge.

"Even so, Lady Reimira... you've made a bold decision."

On the way, Miller told me that.

He has a bitter smile on his face.

Is that right? Did you think too much after all?

"No, I think it's great. I was wondering if someone like Laymira would be necessary for the future of the kingdom."

"Ahahah... I hope so."

I'm not sure I can be that kind of person.

Still, I want to do it properly once I've made my decision.

To be a queen and lead the country in the right direction...

"Here we are, sir."

And a few minutes later--

A mirror stopped in front of a certain room.

To the sturdy iron door... is this defensive magic?Apart from the physical keys, defensive magic is deployed to keep them from escaping.

I see.....

Even with the Arceus Salvation Party, there was no room for escape.

Well then... I'll open it.

The mirror first took out the key from its pocket and unlocked it.

After that, I took the magic tool and scrapped it on the top of the door.As a result, the entire door was enveloped in a faint green color, and the Defensive Magic was lifted.

"As a precaution, we are putting a magic bracelet on the members."That's why I don't think there's anything you need to do... but if you feel unsafe, please leave immediately....... Well, I don't think you need to be as masterful as Princess Reimira. "

Yeah, okay. Thank you.

I once had Arios train me, and I'm not going to let that happen so easily.

Still, facing the Arceus Salvation Party, which was feared as the worst extremist organization,

I just got a little nervous there.

"Woah...!"

The moment they opened the door, the members shouted in surprise.

--Geiga Robales.

That's what Ray heard about the member's name.

Even though he wasn't a cadre, he seemed to have a place in the party.They were trusted among their members because they were absolutely loyal to Raphael and Manusa.

The Gegha is now seated in an iron chair.

He was bound to his limbs with a stiff string, and the aforementioned [Bracelet of Magic Power Control] was attached to his arms.

As expected, in this situation, we're not about to escape.The Shadow Stone was a different story, but of course, it was already collected.

"Hmm. Her Royal Highness has just appeared."I was surprised. "

Gega smiles bitterly and says out loud.

"... but I'm sorry to hear that." I don't have any useful information.There's nothing you can gain by torture. "

"... well, don't be so vigilant."I'm not here to hurt you. "

As Ray leaned against the nearby wall, he turned to Gega again.

"You guys are amazing." I can't believe you're going to have a terrorist attack in the future......

"Hmm. What? You're just making fun of me, princess."

A self-serving smile appeared on Gegha's face.

"No, you can't win, but you're terrorizing me, which means you have a belief in keeping yourself safe."... no? "

…………

“I thought it was amazing.It's not what you normally do.I think your beliefs are real. "

"...... Kuku, hahaha. Hahaha!"

So Gega shook his shoulders.

"Isn't it good, Her Royal Highness Princess Laimila (...)?"As expected of the next queen. "

"Yeah, thanks for that."

Ray quietly accepted the admiration, prompting Gega to respond.

"So, what do you think?" If you don't touch it, you won't go far, right? "

"... hmm. Well, that's pretty much right."We operate on the basis of our beliefs.It's not the same now or in the past. "

"I knew it. I'm going to take back the good old kingdom of Arceus... that's what you believe."

"Surely, the majority of the people have lost their heart in valuing others and the environment, prioritizing only their own interests.Such a state of affairs... is absolutely wrong. "

…………

When he said that, Ray couldn't help but imagine.

Sword Saint Leon Makba kicked out his real son just because he was out of his skill.

And the inhabitants who soon began to persecute Arios so that they could catch on to their notoriety.

Of course, this isn't just about Arios.

Something similar is happening throughout the kingdom.

In particular, the residents of this country were unusually cold against the [Out-of-Skill Holder].

"Is that why you want to change?" This world. "

"Of course! Such a dirty world... who thinks it's beautiful!"

"- I see. It's a solid and wonderful belief, Gegha."

And the person who appeared on the wipe.

"I... I... I... I...!" I can't believe you're......? "

Gega opened her eyes wide.

Your body is trembling and shaking violently.

"Raphael, my lord...!" Why are you here......? "

"... what are you saying? Now I'm a big sinner."I don't deserve to call myself royalty. "

A tall, skinny young man dressed in prisoner clothes.

The First Prince, Raphael Pho Arceus, said so with a bitter smile.
