Above Kurvane, the capital of the Holy King of Kurvane

Cut the wind and the magic airship reaches over the sacred kingdom of Kurvagne.If you go by horse, you can travel for 10 days without needing a day, so it was natural for countries to want a magic airship.

The Magic Airship owned by the Holy King had a departure point in the Second Sanctuary, but the departure point for foreign ships was in the 5th Block.

The landing was the evening after Eva decided to return to the Holy King's City.

Someone from the Kurvan side will come and greet the Lev captain immediately.

"--it's early this time."

"--I 'm sorry. My Empire has been experiencing a long monster sweep and we are running out of supplies."

"--that's... please load as much as you can."

"-- Thank you for your cooperation."

"-- what, in times like these, we're going to work together."

It had a gentle atmosphere. Since the Battle of Red Gate, the interaction between the Empire and the Holy King has deepened.

Lev offers magic equipment, and Kurvan supplies essentials like food, medicine, and clothing.Many catalysts are needed to operate magical instruments.

The crates containing magic items are wooden crates, but the crates provided by Kurvan are piled up.

The Empire is making progress on magic equipment.

On the other hand, the Holy King's kingdom has a population of dozens of times the total population of Lev, which is an error considering the amount of goods consumed daily, such as the provision of essentials to fill the magic airship.

"... let's go"

In the gap where the luggage was exchanged, Dantes and the others stepped down to the arrival and departure points.Pick a shade and go forward.

(I can't see anything unusual.)

If you leave the arrival area unannounced, you'll get lost in the city.

Eva, wearing a bold hood, continues to gaze around.

It's a calm gesture that doesn't seem to be the Holy King's Capital where the coup d 'état took place, though not very much.

(Nh, is that... a church?)

A crowd of priests dressed in monastic clothing gathered, but in front of them were ladders and scaffolds hanging from the building.

"... no, my church is finally being renovated just like the head office of the Pope."

"--but is that okay?The monster threat hasn't left yet.... "

"-- some of them are up in the market."

"-- Isn't that just merchants lusting for profit?There's no problem with the church spending its budget. "

Refurbishment of the church.

In other words, they are making the church a "magic instrument".

If we don't stop it —— I don't know what the effect would be if a magical church were placed in the middle of the Holy King's City.

"... Master Eva, let's leave now."

Dantes whispered to Eva, who had stopped her legs.

"... yeah, I know."

Converting an already existing church into a goddess shrine has been done in various countries, but not in one or two days.It will take at least half a month.

If renovation had started after the coup, it would have just begun.

(Now, if we don't find your father....)

Eva and the others continue through the city.

It was more than an hour before Eva realized that one of her companions, the Cat-Beast Adventurer, had disappeared.

Zelly

The whole city of the Holy King's City was calm, but there was a tingling sense of tension when it became the "Second Sanctuary", with heavily armed soldiers patrolling everywhere.

It was already late at night, and the magic lamp's street lights lit up the main streets, but the back roads were dark and quiet.

There was a black shadow running through it like the wind.

It's Zelly.

This was the exchange Raj had once had when he left Eva's escort and left the Holy King's City.

I mean, you often went to the Third Sanctuary.

I'll put it in just a little bit.I'm not going to the Second Sanctuary because it sucks.

- Bad security?

—— Means bad when they find out. Well, come in.

It was not a grand language.

Zelly, who specializes in scouting and scouting missions, has low combat abilities, but shows her true value in these times.

"Hmm, I don't use knights.Does that mean all the knights in the aristocracy are waiting at home?It's easier to deal with a fresh soldier... who's probably weaker than a knight. "

Some knights with many noble blood relatives were certainly chosen by blood, but they were heavily trained compared to ordinary soldiers and possessed rare talents.

The Duke of Glengeed didn't want to use knights beyond his faction's control, he probably used soldiers, but he had a few holes in his security.

That's why Zelly was able to get here easily.

"Oh, there's nobody here."

We arrived at the Earl's House of Sirius, but there were no signs of surveillance or fighting by the soldiers.There was no Count's knight, so Zelly went over the wall and broke into the grounds.

Knock around the back door - hide away before someone comes out.

"? Oh? I thought I just heard something...."

It was the maid who appeared with the door open.

Hey, thanks ~

"Eh!? Somebody..."

"Ah, wait, wait, wait, hey?"

"--Moog!?"

Suddenly Zelly appeared from the dark and suddenly she was about to raise her voice, so she filled the distance and put a thick cloth on her mouth.Because when you try to shut your mouth with your bare hands, you get bitten - surprisingly or naturally, Zelly is used to it.

"You're hurting me, suddenly I'm shouting... well, anyway, I'm using Miss Eva."

!?

"Why aren't you shouting? Is that okay?"

Yeah, yeah, and the maid nodded, so Zelly gently let her loose--

"Haaaaaaaaaa!! Intruder!!"

The butler, Sebastian, smiled, but it was somehow bitter.

Zelly, on the other hand, was groaning on the sofa and moaning with her cheek staff.

"No, no... I didn't think it was really Miss Eva."

"That's why it's terrible. I was screaming, surrounded, suspicious."

"This is a tough situation, so please understand."

Sebastian lowered his head deeply.

"Ah, I see. It's okay.Don't be so angry. "

Zelly raised Sebastian's head.

After that, I was surrounded by servants, but Zeli's feet made it easy for me to escape.I didn't do it because there were no knights or soldiers - there was no force left in the Mansion.

Sebastian came and finally got rid of his suspicions.

The maid who broke her promise put her grip on her head and said, "Hee ", but she didn't reflect at all.If this is a real thief, I want you to be careful because it's not strange that Zelly is stabbed to death - but there are no bandits coming to this mansion in the "Second Sanctuary", so the low vigilance of the maid is somehow helpless.

"What's going on?"

"Before that, where is your daughter now....."

They're coming to the Holy King's City.

"! Is that so...?"

After all, Zelly choked at the word.

"... I thought Miss Eva would return to the Holy King's City in the event of the Count's crisis.No, no, you're brave. "

Sebastian said with these two emotions intertwined, like his grandfather who watches over his naughty grandchildren and his father who rejoices in his daughter's growth.

"But you're back early.Were you in the Knight of Light Kingdom? "

"No, from the Lev Magic Empire on a Magic Airship."

"Ooh...."

"Ah, how dare you drag me out of the winning casino... and when this is over, I will definitely live a life of happiness."

And Reggie said, "Well, it's more like you've never been bothered before.Flagging is not going to happen, right?Sebastian, who had examined Zelly's personality before, passed through her words.

"Please tell Miss Eva about this situation -"

Eva and the others were in a building of the Chamber of Commerce in "Block 4."

It used to be a place where I boarded in with Reggie and brokered slaves - in fact, it was a chamber of commerce where the Count Siries breathed, and when something happened, it was a place I could count on.

The chubby chairman blushed his face when he saw Eva, but now he promised to hide that he was patient and that Eva was here.Nodding with a pale face, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce - who seems to be traumatized by the raging rage - took Eva and the others to the Chamber of Commerce and ran away like that.

Late at night, the knights take turns taking a nap while guarding.Dantes rented a room and slept saying that they should rest when they could.

That's when Zelly came back, and when she returned, everyone got up and gathered in one room.

"Welcome home, Zelly. You've asked for a dangerous assignment."

There was only one magic lamp on the table in the large room.Everyone sat on the chair to surround it, and the knights stood behind Eva.

"No, it's no big deal.I don't have to tell you if you just pay me off a little bit. "

"Zelly"

Dantes tells Zelly, who made a circle with her index finger and thumb and was winking while making a coin.

"No, Mr. Dantes, you're doing a job worth it.Once this is done, the Count Siries will thank you, not just Zelly, but all of you in a proper way. "

"Whoa."

Zelly was overtly delighted.

"You know, Zelly, I can't forgive you if you actually failed to infiltrate."

"It's okay, Dantes' husband.I've been to the Second Sanctuary -- first of all, I have to tell you this. "

Count Siries is safe.

Eva's body returned only slightly.Eva, who seemed calm, also seemed quite anxious inside - she greeted Zeli at the top of a).

"He is now acting with the Duke of Glenlivet."

"With the Duke...."

"Yes, I helped the coup, and when it's all over, I'll have to be executed."

…………

Eva gripped her hands on her lap without crying or shouting.

Everyone in this room knew the strength of Eva, but nobody thought it was this strong.

Reason is twisting down your emotions.

"Suddenly, it would have been nice to have a letter, but I don't think it's a good idea to leave evidence - it looks like the Count is being seen by the Duke of Glenguide.So, Sebastian can tell as accurately as possible what the butler told me orally. "

"Please."

"It seems that the Count knew about the coup after it was decided.But it's impossible to stop it anymore, and I wonder if I can help you.The Count decided to help the Duke of Glengeed, who was already gathering signs, because if he stood up and died, the dog would have to die. "

"... it's your father's decision.Didn't you enter the Duke's pocket and try not to bleed? "

"As you know.The Count was also in contact with the Queen, so the Queen seemed to know that the Count had moved with the Duke of Glenlivet and had left the Palace without resistance. "

"Is the Virgin Queen safe?"

"Yes, that's it."

…………

Eva leaves her body on the back of the chair to relax.

"Isn't that so important?I don't really know. "

"... Mm-hmm. If Her Majesty the Queen were to survive, and then if Her Majesty the Queen were to rise again to the top of the country, Her Majesty, who knew what the Count was doing, would not be able to execute her."

When Captain Maxim entered the commentary, Zelly was convinced that "Ah, I see."

"You haven't made much announcement to the Holy King, have you?So there's less confusion.But on the other hand, the Knight of Light kingdom knows the coup... so I must have contacted you earlier. "

Why do you say that to other countries first?

"I don't know the details, but I don't think the Duke of Glengeed wants any confusion either."

"What do you mean you don't want confusion after a coup d 'état...?"

"... every principle of action leads to 'Goddess Temple Construction'.So the Duke of Glenguide first contacted the neighboring countries to get the budget for church construction from other countries without drastically changing the domestic budget. "

"Hah...."

Don't you see?

"Sushi, thank you so much for that..."

"That's how important it is to the Duke.Build a temple... to the point where you have to wake up a coup. "

!!

Tension ran between all of them.

"We may have had a little misunderstanding.The Duke pushes ahead with the construction of the Goddess Temple no matter what.Your father will no longer be able to sabotage the shrine.The temple is so important. "

"That's what happened... that message..."

"Message?"

Zelly nodded.

"The Count said to Sebastian when he left the Mansion:When Miss Eva contacts me, she says, "

—— My life is probably safe, but the next time I see you, I'm not always the same as I used to be (...). Like the Duke...

The Count, who identified the temple as a magical instrument, thought that if he were placed under the influence of that magical instrument - like the current Duke of Glenlivet - he would become blind to the goddess.

At the very least, we must act with that in mind.

"Miss... what can I do? The Count says to the lady:I told you to run because your life is safe.I can still make it now. It's a shame you came to this Holy King's Capital.... "

Everyone's gaze gathered on Eva.

"I'm staying."

Eva answered immediately.

"I am Eva-Siriz, daughter of Count Siriz.I can't escape to a safe place while my father is fighting alone.I don't know what I can do... but as a daughter, as one of the nobles, I will do what I have to do. "

The knights of the Earl were proud of their words, and Maxim shed tears as a cloud.

"Mademoiselle, you've become a fine woman....."

"Captain... what are you going to do when you cry?"

"But I can't stop it....."

Dantes grinned bitterly at Eva, who sighed.

"So, it's good to act, but do you have a budget?"

"... before that, everyone in the Silver Balance..."

"Of course I will."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"Impossible. If you pull it here, Rage will get mad at you-- oh, no, Rage won't get mad at you.It's just that Raige would definitely try to help your daughter. "

If it's Raige...

"Yeah, well, some of the members say we need the Count Siries to be safe."

Dantes pointed to Zelly with his thumb.With her heart set on getting paid, she shakes her head vertically.

When she saw it, Eva smiled a little.

"Thank you. Nothing would be so pleasant if Silver Balance helped me."

"We're adventurers, so I don't think we can get into the heart of the Holy King's City, but let's do what we can."

"Actually, I've been thinking about one thing.It's only possible for you as adventurers. "



Dantes, Mino, and Zelly looked at each other.

"Here's what I thought."

Eva started talking about her plan.
