The magic airship "Moonlight Beauty" was still the temporary government base of the Lev Magic Empire.

(There's a Lark here somewhere: ...... I wonder if Lady Eva is here too.)

I was thinking about this as I walked down the long, narrow corridor.

After the Red Gate was closed, when I returned to the End Fang, Lark was already gone. After all, a fellow air pirate (・・・・) and a noble lady had taken him away for medical treatment.

Considering the few words I dodged with Lark, "noble lady" seems to be the Eva lady.

When did the two of them make a connection ...... very mysterious.

It seems that Lark's six-star natural pearl [Shadow King Demon Sword Art (Shadow King)] was still eating away at Lark's body. I recalled my memories and confirmed it with 【Mori-Rama】 and came to the same conclusion. If you don't remove that natural gem from Lark, ...... Lark's body will eventually be unable to withstand it. It looks like he was fighting quite hard.

''--Rage, rage?''

Uh-huh.

If you don't listen properly, etiquette is the key to this kind of thing.

While I was thinking, we came to the waiting room in the audience room. There, we were briefed on the procedure for the upcoming audience.

But not only that, Dantes, who was dressed the dirtiest, was frowned at by a Levite attendant who made him change into his clothes. "Manners are the key," he said, but his appearance did not match his manners.

They wiped his face, shaved his stubble, and trimmed his hair.

When he put on a simple red-themed jacket and slim trousers, Mr. Dantes looked like a respectable adult.

I only had my hair done and I wondered if he would say something about my clothes as well, but the attendant growled "mmmm" and then nodded "okay". He must have noticed that me and Mimino's clothes were in accordance with the halfling tradition. Non-san is in monastic clothes, so it's safe.

''I guess I'm the only one who isn't an adventurer anymore. ......

Mr. Dantes, who was wearing a slightly ill-fitting, floppy jacket that looked tight, said.

Dad, you don't usually get to wear this kind of stuff, so you should enjoy it.

'Mmmm, well, you're right. It's rare for an adventurer to meet with the head of a country, even for a 'platinum-class' (platinum rank) higher than us.

And then a voice called out to me.

''-- Adventurer Party 'Silver Balance', I'm here.

At the same time, the door to the anteroom opens, leading to a dimly lit hallway. At the end of it was the entrance to the great hall, from which a glittering light shone in.

Oh .......

I almost shouted.

There was a ceiling so high that it was hard to believe that this was the inside of an airship, and the chandeliers were shining. They were magical tools, so the amount of light was constant.

On either side were the Levite dignitaries, and the golden carpet with geometric patterns woven into it went in a straight line to the Emperor's throne, which was a few steps up.

(That's the Emperor of the Lev Magic Empire: ......)

The jacket, richly woven with gold thread, looked rather heavy on the aging emperor. There was also a crown and a gold tin cane, but that was placed on a stand next to him.

Still - the gaze that seemed to shoot through us felt genuine.

The power is much more powerful than the others.

...... Dad, here, go ahead.

Oh, yeah.

Even Dantes was pressured, but Non was unconcerned and pushed his father back. I wonder if he is used to this kind of situation.

I'll be fine, Rage, I'll be right behind you!

'Mr. Mimino, don't pull your clothes off ......'

Mimino-san, who has been tugging on my sleeve, seems to be getting nervous. I couldn't help myself, so I held her hand, and she squeezed it back. It's cute. It's funny: ...... This guy is supposed to be 24 years old, I believe .......

Dantes is followed by Non, me and Mimino.

Whispering, the dignitaries are whispering to each other in faint voices. In a voice that even my [hearing enhancement] can only pick up a little bit. The content was, well, "That's the adventurer?" and other trivial things, but.

''It is the 'Silver Balance', sir.

The place we were told beforehand - in the middle of the room or so, Dantes-san said that and got down on one knee, and we followed suit.

An elderly Levite beside the emperor opened his mouth. She had a cunning look on her face.

He looked cunning and cunning, but he said, "Well, you have done a great job. I heard that you did a great job. I've heard that you did a great job. Now I wish to hear from His Majesty the Emperor of the Levu Magic Empire.

Ha!

As we bowed our heads, we heard a somewhat hushed voice.

It seems that you have done as much work as an army, despite not belonging to the ...... regular army. Besides, you have done a lot for Lursha.

Oh, I think. I can't believe you went out of your way to say that about Mr. Lursha.

Maybe it was because of the 'hero armament' thing, but somehow the way you just said it felt like you were putting your shoulders to the wheel for Rursha-san.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. This time, your achievements will be awarded first class honors.

First class, you mean - you've done the most?

The dignitaries all zapped at the statement. 'Has there ever been a first class in our country?' 'No, I've never heard of it.' 'You're a fifth-class citizen for finding "Armed Hero".' 'You mean, you're a hero of the Redemption?

"Quiet. 'In the presence of His Majesty the Emperor.'

The hall fell silent again as the elder Levite said.

...... Originally, I would have committed to living on a pension in my country, but you don't want that kind of thing, do you?　After all, it's half destroyed now.

We didn't know how to react to the self-mocking words.

'Farewell, tell me what you want. I'll give you what you want. You're not going to be able to find a way to make a living out of it. I'm not going to be able to tell you what to do. What do you think?

I didn't expect - I didn't expect this kind of reward.

Three thousand imperial gold coins is roughly about 1.5 billion yen.

This is an unbelievable amount of money for an adventurer to get as a reward.

''May I mention ......?''

Then Mr. Dantes looked up.
