The chandelier, sprinkled with colorful crystals hanging from the ceiling, seemed to work as if the light source were a magic guide lamp. There are also a number of lights arranged on the wall that work the same way, so this room is so eyeless that you need sunglasses.

Or the left-right line, and all the leffs who weave the seemingly expensive kimonos wear sunglasses.

"... move on quickly"

The civil-like man who stood beside the door told me, oh, that's what this is about (...) and I made a point.

I guess I'm going to show off the luxury at the time I get in and make it clear which one is up there.

I secretly activate [Dark Magic] because Mr. Nong seemed to have difficulty walking to his eyelids.

Mr. Nong's sight would have been easier to see with this. [Dark Magic] has something that darkens the target's vision and makes it hard to see.

It's not about narrowing your pupils or anything, it's magic that lowers the amount of light that touches your body, so it can also be used for sunscreen.

"Hey, move forward--"

Since me and Mr. Nong walked out so quickly, the clerk lost his word.

I pull Mr. Nong's hand and walk with my chest up to show him that there is no problem without sunglasses.

The crimson carpet laid on the black floor turns off our footsteps.

There were steps ahead, and a steel chair with a cushion made of demonic leather was placed.

It must be the supreme power of this country, the emperor, sitting there.

(... that doesn't feel like a glimmer)

The old ref with his cheekstick on his elbow put some sunglasses on his nose and stared at us as if he could even see something interesting. Many of the refs watching us looked less interesting to us than the brightness, but the emperor was different.

(Ah)

I noticed a woman sitting behind the Emperor's right.

Her Royal Highness Anastasia.

Wow... what is that dress? Woven using shimmering silver yarn, it has a pale, gentle pink color - a word that would not be found in this world, a “ (toki) color ”.

Tiara, placed on her head, was exquisitely constructed and even so luxurious that it seemed to break just falling out of her head.

And he was still wrapped in a scarf around his neck.

Her Royal Highness Anastasia, who blushed red on her lips, thought she was a surprisingly neat face when she saw it before, but now it's there —— it contains demonization. It's magical enough to entice a man.

Unfortunately, it is so rare here that she also has to wear sunglasses, and because of this, Her Highness's charm is reduced by about 80%. Who is it? I picked those sunglasses. Marshal Douglas MacArthur.

…………

Her Highness, with whom I met her eyes, gave her a dazzling expression and let her wave small on her lap. What's so cute about it? I mean, was he such a friendly person?

"Stop there"

A ref woman standing between the emperor and us —— someone who looks like a secretary in better clothes than an earlier civilian -- said so, and me and Mr. Nong stopped.

They both kneel down on the spot and drool their heads.

"Raise your face."

I heard a crouched voice —— that was the emperor's flesh voice.

My gaze intersects that of the emperor.

Come on, it's the beginning of the deal.

"Looks like you attacked The Fear Labyrinth."

When I glanced at the secretary, she nodded at an angle that was discernible only if she moved or not.

You're right.

I tried to make a sinister voice that stretched out, but I couldn't. At 14, there's something called a 14-year-old voice...

"The labyrinth will be taken over by the Empire from now on. Instead, I'll pay you enough."

"Thank you"

"That's it."

to the emperor, who waved in his palm and indicated what he meant by "go home,"

"I'm afraid I'd like to confirm one point. Will Labyrinth Strategy Division 4 also be rewarded?

The refs squeaked at me. [M]

No, no, I didn't come all the way here to tell you such a short story, this way. Well, great people may have plenty of time, but adventurers are kind of in the business of not getting a day's worth of money in if they don't work a day. The purpose of coming here will be well served.

The refs' blurring was "bewildering". I wonder why every adventurer (and the human race) cares about the Labyrinth Strategy Division.

"Such things are to be decided within our empire! Adventurers!

When the secretary speaks hysterically,

"Good."

The emperor showed the hand he had just waved, "Go home," this time "Wait" open.

"Why would you care about something like that, huh?

"... Our labyrinth strategy is only because we had the help of Labyrinth Strategy Division 4. I know it would be too arrogant for us to monopolize the honors of our offense."

"I have not received such a report."

Hiraki, and the emperor turned his gaze, and a man who had refrained from going away shook his head beside him. Is that the director? He doesn't seem to be able to work.

"If so, find out about it here (...) and shake it out after"

"-- We only managed to reclaim our communications bags from an immediate death trap hung by a liaison officer from Section 4 who was missing if we were grateful to Section 4. I'm sure some of those bags might say something about contact with us."

The stiffness is even greater.

I guess you did a good job on that bag, huh? You're not buried in the dark, are you? It is an appeal that

…………

Emperor's eyes are narrowed. It is unclear what you are thinking.

"We've investigated the bag. —— Call Ava."

Then Abba, who had refrained from doing so between the sights, is taken out. Ava, who has withdrawal symptoms of lack of water candy, blinked her eyes many times and came here with the face of "What the hell is going on" as she grabbed the hem of her clothes and let it go repeatedly.

What, Abba was investigating?

Doesn't that suck? This man is obviously unwilling to get along with us!

Abba, you've done your research on the contents of the Labyrinth Attack Division 4 communications bag.

"Ha? Ah, yes! We've done our research."

Tell me what's going on here.

"Ha."

Ava said, "Are you sure you want to tell me? He looked like," but the emperor scowls at me just to tell you.

You're not gonna lie or throw up in here... are you okay? If Mr. Lulusha says anything against you here, you won't be able to take it back.

It could have screwed up.

I didn't have to take it all the way here to extract my testimony.

If you ask Her Royal Highness Anastasia later --.

"I would like to say what I have investigated. —— The offense was hard to say that it was going well, and we were looking for relief because of the lack of supplies. He also expressed his dissatisfaction with the fact that he had been in touch for several days and had not heard back from the headquarters."

Oh.

Ooh?

Mr. Abba (...), could you have done a proper (...) research for me? I thought you were a sweet addict who didn't want to be the spinner of the "Lolo Lolo Chamber of Commerce"! I'm sorry!

I heard that report, a ref who seemed unable to do his job earlier,

"Ho, reply from HQ!? I didn't hear from you!

"Director. I know that"

When the emperor said, he seemed unable to do his job —— the director of the Labyrinth Service shut his mouth and grabbed it.

"The liaison officer died hanging on an instant death trap. So it would be helpless to think that the contact had been interrupted. The chief of the Labyrinth Attack Section 4 is loyal to his mission, and he can't blame the director for mistakenly not contacting him —— that's the thing, Reggie from The Silver Balance."

You knew my name, but you thought I was strengthening my body, and the emperor did.

"I'll take care of Lulusha. He will continue to serve as section chief of Section 4 and will continue to work for him. This is the rest of the decision."

To the proclamation of an emperor like no other, the leffs in line shouted, "Whoa."

Oh, that?

Could this be -- didn't we solve it?

Seriously. Seriously?

When I saw Mr. Nong, Mr. Nong smiled and nodded.

…………

Beyond, His Highness Anastasia blinked at the sudden, then looked at me and made me laugh with a crying face. No, really, I might have done the same without your sunglasses.

"Sometimes, Reggie."

I thought this would solve everything. The Emperor said to me.

"A hero who saved the kingdom of the Holy Kingdom of Kulvern stepped through the labyrinth in our country. What the hell are you up to?

In one word my body froze, and the tranquility of a winter night came to the occasion.
