Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)

03: Saria, meet the military men of Frezier.

Was that last fall?

There was a time when Keith looked serious and was reading and fishing for books as he looked down the window at the wheat fields near Delia Field's harvest.

Keith is ostensibly thought of as a big asshole.

Sometimes, however, it was only when it came to things of interest that I felt very focused on.

'Hey, Salia... don't you think it's strange?

Keith spoke to me as I was making a new magical fortress georama at my desk on the side.

I was just creating a small, 100% fantasy space for my father to see.

Fifteen years ago, in a war in which my father and mother participated, a giant weapon of the former Federation attacked the Kingdom of Ruskia.

"... that's not common sense. It's in the newest part of the history book."

'I'm not.' Cause... I wonder why it was Miradolid in the Luskian kingdom. '

……

'I wonder why it wasn't Frezier, right? The Federation was at war with Frezil. "

"Because there's a sanctuary, isn't there? The old Confederation wrote in a book of history that it was after a sanctuary protected by the Luskian kingdom."

"... Holy Land, huh? I wonder what happened to that place. '

Keith didn't see a wheat field through the window.

I've been looking at the other side of it.

'Cause we've been to the sanctuary many times, but you've got nothing. There.'

"Holy places only mean holy places."

'I didn't write one true thing in the history book... Salia. It's boring.'

"Then why don't you ask your father and mother? I'm a party. Because I'm a hero."

I already want to concentrate on the work. I answered appropriately.

But Keith wasn't convinced by that. "Uh," he complains face to face.

'There's no way you can tell me. They didn't want to say anything about that time. "

"Then why don't you give up? I'm fine with curiosity, but in the world, hidden information means something. It's better if you don't go after him."

"What the heck, Salia, why are you so connected to me and my twins?" I'm your brother!

"I don't know. He's not the only brother in the order in which he was born."

Keith Habu, you can say it, but you can come to my side and match your own back to my back. Heavy.

But since we were little, we've been back to back, feeling and talking about each other's existence, each other's magical currents. This is the most calming position I'm used to.

"I'm bored... I'm not just here."

Keith is roaring, um.

I looked back slightly and looked sideways as I supported Keith like that with my back.

... Weird kid as always.

What do you care so much about?

Next year, even though I don't like it, I'm supposed to enroll in Wang Du's Magic School.

Unlike my hair, he even thinks of something, twirling a little habitual red forehead.

Does my father and mother know what Keith is looking at?

Curiosity is fine.

But Keith, that's a little too dangerous for you...

Ha...

Keith's guy, you sensed I was chasing him!

I noticed that shortly after my transfer from Wangdu Boulevard.

Looks like Keith noticed I was tracking him down and moved him elsewhere again.

Getting that feeling, with a disappointing face, I end up going down to where I think Keith was until just now.

It was a small park, along the seaside behind the royal palace.

The sound of the different waves and the sea breeze are pleasant.

"I knew Keith wasn't here... where the hell did he go?"

When I tried to track him down again and deploy a 3D magic formation, I noticed that there was a man in military uniform, looking at the sea from the embankment.

……

Beautiful blonde hair that looks flickering from the gap in her military hat.

The man was staring at a point on the other side of the ocean.

It's as if, on one point, it's also another world that looks just like him...

"... General Cannon?

I knew the man.

The man in the military hat is called by name and looks at this one with only his gaze.

The pale eye, after all, belongs to him.

"I knew it! General Cannon!!

"... is that Salia?

"Yep. It's me!!

I rushed over to General Cannon.

General Cannon and I are very great generals of Frezier, but also old friends of my father and mother.

So I've seen him several times since he was a little girl.

Looks like a pale, tough guy, but that's not true.

I know. General Cannon is a very sweet man.

"You've grown, Salia"

General Cannon smiles small and turns back to me.

General Cannon, looking directly in the front, is very nice and cool.

At my age, I think I'm older than my father, I'm around forty years old, but this guy is one of the Demon King classes, so he still looks a lot younger.

Even so, the atmosphere that is created is calmer than the people in the Demon King class I know once and for all...

Maybe the Demon King class is all grown up and just young...

General Kanon looks like a blonde prince, but he doesn't care what he says about military personnel. It's sinister.

"You were already here in Ruskia. I thought you were coming just before the Episcopal Festival. Is Master Shatoma here, too?

"No. The Queen is scheduled to come to Ruscia tomorrow on a Valkyrian ship.... I'm just here early, with an escort. Of the Prince of Frezier..."

"Prince of Frezier......?

I tilted my neck.

'Cause now the king of Frezier is Queen Shatoma, and she shouldn't have had any children...

What is famous for being a holy queen with celibacy all her life.

General Cannon giggles and then explains how interesting I was at that.

"You haven't heard? The Queen was adopted by blood relatives."

"Adopt a son?

"... of the future, King of Frezier. I came here to deliver His Highness to Ruskia."

Once again, General Canon turned his gaze to the other side of the ocean.

Are you looking in Frezier's direction, or are you looking somewhere else?

I knew you wouldn't understand.

"Is Salia maybe looking for Keith?

"Yeah, I am. The moment he arrived in the capital, he stole my mother's eyes and disappeared. But if we don't find him soon, because my mother and father are so worried. I was wondering if Keith would kill someone in half."

"... half-kill, huh"

General Cannon was looking a little, far away for some reason.

"... are Thor and Machia here too"

"Yes. From this year on, my father will be working at the Royal Palace. Haven't you heard?

"No... I heard that from Eska... no. I thought you were coming."

……

I wonder what you're thinking. He holds his hand next to his military hat and has a look he doesn't understand well.

I told General Cannon as I deployed the 3D Magic Formation and searched Keith again.

"I'm sure your father and mother would like to see General Cannon."

"Well... at the Episcopal Festival"

"At any rate, you should come visit us with that prince"

…………

General Cannon stares silently at the sea again.

Yeah.... this isn't much of a ride.

"Oh, Keith got caught searching"

A red dot showing him appears as the location of the 3D magic formation.

"... hmm?

But I made a strange voice and opened my eyes.

Because Keith was in a very weird place.

"The royal palace's... top floor?

…………

General Cannon reacted slightly to the words and frowned.

And hold by the military hat, and look up. Right on the side of the Grand Crystal Palace, at its highest point.

"I wonder how Keith got there."

"... the royal palace is stretched with boundaries. You shouldn't be able to go with metastatic magic.... you slipped out? To that place...?

That's it, General Cannon shuts his mouth.

He has a slight, harsh look.

Oh...... Keith's fool.

You're definitely going somewhere you shouldn't be, this.

You're gonna piss me off, this.

I was frightened by my twin brothers, and once I looked up to heaven, I followed General Cannon to Stasta and the royal palace.

……

But fu.

Far above the royal palace, from its “somewhere”...

Zero falls and sounds, twigs of leaves, to the sound of Shizuku...

I felt called, and again, I looked up into the sky.
