It was the so-called one-week war on the fourth to fifth day.

The army, which had been engaged in the kingdom of Fardarm, suddenly changed direction and suddenly fell into the kingdom of Domorgar.

The kingdom of Domorgar was breached without any means of doing anything with 30,000 cavalry and 60,000 infantry, and took most of the northern territory.

"That's exactly what Merlin advised. What's so successful?"

King Roselle muttered unintentionally.

Merlin answers that.

"Thanks to the dragon. These kids made it easy to see the situation."

Merlin strokes a small dragon on his shoulder.

If you are a small flying dragon capable of speeding more than 500 km / h, it is easy to check the status of the war.

It was yesterday that we learned that troops had moved from the northern border to rescue Domorgarh, which had been defeated by the Rossais.

Immediately aware of this, Merlin suggested that King Roselle move his army.

In this way, he succeeded in greatly cutting down his territory.

"The Domorgarh troops invading the kingdom of Rosais were hit hard and couldn't return. Tired and useless. It would be hard just to maintain the border today. There is no physical strength to regain both the south and the north. "

That means that one of the three great powers in the northern part of South Adernia has collapsed.

"Should we attack the kingdom of Demorgar as it is?"

"No, let's wait. The southern commander, Carlo, is the first prince, Carlo, but he has failed. It's going to happen, let's take advantage of it, but the eyes of the infighting haven't surfaced yet, he says he bites a writhing cat. … And the unification of Gallia is not over yet. ”

The Kingdom of Roselle controls only the southern part of Gallia.

There are thirty-two tribes in Gallia, and twenty have been conquered by the Kingdom of Roselle. Twelve tribes are still rebellious.

Full control of the Adernian Peninsula is better after Gaul's leveling.

"Yes, this is Merlin, my country has only been helped by you."

"Huh, I'm the parent of the first King and the first vassal. To me, this country is like a grandchild."

Merlin laughs inappropriately.

It looks like a 17-year-old or a 18-year-old daughter, but her expression should be called a witch who has lived for hundreds of years.

"Then, Majesty, I'll be back home soon because I have research."

Merlin flips over her black cloak and walks.

Many soldiers looked down on their backs with respect and awe.

Merlin's house looks very small.

But below that is a huge basement.

Inside, there are complex geometric patterns, and there are medicines on the shelves that you do not know what to use.

Merlin sat on the sofa.

"Hey, are you there?"

-Oh, there you are-

A child-like voice answers Merlin's voice.

However, this voice can only be heard by Merlin. Perhaps to others, Merlin only seems to be talking to the devil.

"I'm thinking for a while. I want to see you."

-I hate it. Isn't that embarrassing? It's actually embarrassing to hear your voice-

Words that come back as ridiculed.

-By the way, is research progressing? ―

"Yes, 90% already"

―It was worth 500 years. It was worth giving me blessing-

"Oh, this" blessing of youth "

Merlin then showed her finger cut off with a nearby knife.

The fresh blood flows, but the blood stays in a flash, the cross section rises, and the finger regenerates.

"It's right to always keep the body in the best condition, not the age of you. Dead cells regenerate instantly. But if your head is crushed and your body leaves your soul, you're inevitable. Not immortal ... "

Merlin mutters with a sigh.

It's fine to be able to live long, but when you die you die.

And she's met with terrible eyes because of this blessing.

Because of his poor longevity, the fear of death has become even stronger.

It would have been better to die earlier.

-You can't help it. We can make one hundred, but we cannot make one nothing, and we cannot make one hundred ―

All living things have life and death.

It's two sides of the same coin.

To be alive is to die someday.

It's just as contradictory as a card that doesn't represent immortality

That is, it is not possible and must not be done.

"Well, my research is immortal, but ... beyond the spell. Twisting and rewriting the rationale of the world. Rebellion against God, the realization of magic."

-I'm looking forward. You can do things you can't do. I want to be quick. Magic. What will happen really? Is there a heaven-like world where no one will die? Or ...

Do you visit a world of hell where no one dies?

Or does the world itself collapse and break?

"I don't want to die. Like Ezell. I live even if I crawl."

Merlin laughs.

-Speaking of which, they are trying to get in the way again. This time, he seems to have been serious. watch out-

"It's the tenth time I've heard it. Most of them don't match the Roselle king I control. Who? Emperor Persis? Oh, that old man doesn't want to come this far."

-I'm a transferee. But the body is from this world. Only the soul is from another world. Did you aim for it, or was it an accident? Either way is fine. Name is……-

―Is it Alms? ―

"Hey ... interesting."

Merlin brews and drinks her own tea.

Green tea purchased from the east.

It tastes worse than tea from Merlin's hometown, but still likes wine.

-They're not clogged. I'm scared to be able to do what I can't do. The unknown is the most fun

"You are the only strange fairy who enjoys the thrill that might die"

-I do not think so? Well, I don't care about other people. Then I'm expecting ...

―Mari Kurosaki―

The voice disappears.

Merlin-Mari places the empty cup on her desk and stretches.

"I'm Almus ... let's see for now."
