Paladin of the End
2: in the White Sail Capital
The ex-post processing of dragon exorcism really made me extremely busy.
Anyway, villages everywhere don't know about the defeat of dragons, and there are people left in fear and anxiety, so we have to comfort this around.
Even though law and order are still better around His Highness Ethel's dominion, many people try to hide in the Forest of the Beast for a reason.
I am somewhat respected as a 'nominal lord' in an area where such settlements roll, simply because I am strong.
Strong enough to repel warcraft and demons, he can heal wounds and diseases with the protection of a good God, and has connections with power and economic power.
In other words, it's worth using.
Therefore, use while available.
With such an extremely understandable logic, I am well considered and respected.
The point is, it stands about the size of a bandit.
And of course, around Lightning River Harbor, not all of you are looking at me with all that rambling logic.
It's also hard to deny that it's like that if it's a small settlement in the back of the woods or something.
Early on his return, he also moved to arrange the residence of the Forest Giant "Forest Giant" tribe.
Because it is important for the terrorized villagers to misunderstand that the giant tribe is the spiritual soldiers of the evil dragon.
... Although it has been the case in previous lives, the emergency dema means, "Oh my God! I need to tell you!" It spreads terribly fast by virtue of good intentions.
It's important for people with accurate information like this to make a declaration as soon as possible and slap the soil where misinformation is sprayed.
To this end, after early negotiations with the Titans, he now went around explaining the situation directly to the main villages as it was.
Vi also spreads the song to the bards in Lightning River Harbor, and Tonio is spreading rumors to the pedestrians as well.
Damage caused by Dema should probably be contained.
In parallel with the work in the area, relief supplies were sent to the Land of Flowers (Rossdoll).
I don't even have two bodies, so I kept my budget and threw them round the menu, but apparently they did well.
Starting Lu again, Mr. Gerreyes, Mr. Agnal, and Mr. Glendill. The Dwarf tribe took centre stage and began to solicit aspirations.
To establish a path to the Land of Candles and sweep the remnants of the Devil.
Mr. Leistoff, who keeps Lightning River Harbor on my behalf, offers their patronage at the behest of his comrades.
At this minute, it will also be close to the day when we will get our hands on the dismantling of Varakiaka's remains, the organization and distribution of the treasures collected by the dragon.
All the business around here is likely to lead to a southerly advance in the human area of the Southern Frontier Continent (Southmark).
"- In conjunction with the report on the earlier history, this is how things are going."
And I sort out the matter, and I said,
This is a room in the Great Temple of the White Sail Capital.
There was a giant figure sitting inside me. [M]
Anyway, it's big.
They are tall vertically and have a lot of perfect width on the side.
A grumpy eyebrow.
Gold and silver rings on fingers slamming at the desk in loose and majestic cleric clothing, sewn in gold and silver threads.
Chief of the Temple of Burt Bagley.
"……… What else can I say?
"No, there isn't"
"Is that so?"
Temple Chief Bagley was silent for a while.
This man's silence is scary.
I thought you might yell at me again.
"... Well, that, what. Well done."
And, turning that way, the temple chief said in a small voice.
I didn't understand the meaning of the word for a moment and became stiff.
"I'm telling you, you did great! By taking over the evil dragon, all the eagles, His Highness and Anna and Shannon were saved.
Well, there's a little bit of impotence and too much arbitrariness, but there's a way in the situation. I made some written reports about the situation. "
That's what the Temple Chief says when he does it.
... I was surprised because the Bagley Temple Chief always pointed out that I was immature and just pissed off.
When my eyes are round, I can tell for myself.
"……… What is that face? That crazy!?
"No, I don't know, the..."
Then the expression loosens a little.
"Pleased."
The temple chief was only taught to give.
That's why...
"Thank you very much. I'd be happy to repay you."
When I returned the thanks, the temple chief shuddered plumply.
The cheek meat is also shaking with puffiness.
Silence to choose the word for a while, then Temple Chief Bagley, Hmm! and snorted roughly.
"... just because you've earned the honor of dragon killing, don't be alarmed, okay?
"Yes. The honor is the curse and the heart."
"Then good."
The temple chief, um, nodded a little more serenely this time.
"You can't call it a boulder anymore.... the Holy Knight."
Though I feel kind of lonely that you can't call me that.
... but there is something called an indication, and I guess this is the separation.
"Um. - Temple Chief."
"What is it?"
"If I am swallowed and grown by the power and curse of a dragon..."
"Uhm."
Chief Bagley laughed.
"At that time, it's called" Formation (Nobis) "again. I'll give you the Heavy Mace instead of the wake-up call."
I laughed at the words, too.
It was probably the first time I laughed at this guy who was uncomfortable.
◆
The reception room in the main hall of the White Sails.
"Brilliant, 'you kicked in despair'."
Niyali and his lips were distorted by making him a sharp-eyed royal in gray hair, lord of the White Sail Capital.
King's brother Ethelbald Rex Fatail-- this is His Highness Ethel.
"Even the White Sail Capital is now talking about the dragon extermination of the Holy Knight."
"When I visited, I was surprised"
Petals come down from all over, cheers, applause and applause, plus the blessing voices are flickering.
Your Highness moved the guard soldiers in advance so that they wouldn't be swallowed by the people I push over, which was very helpful, but I don't think it's a good idea to sit down.
"In fact, that's all we've accomplished. … a rarer feat than in ancient times, such as taking over the dragons of the Divine Age."
"Because I'm not alone."
In fact, I would have died alone.
With a lot of help, it was a victory that was finally achieved.
When you say that,
"Oh, my God. Sir is humble."
And His Highness Ethel laughed.
"Even if I am proud of myself for a little while longer and seek the reward I deserve, the gods and their anger at the boulders are terrible."
"It doesn't suit me sexually. … Ah, but if I can get a reward, if I may ask for support for Flower Country and Candlestick Country."
All right, all right, his highness shrugged her shoulders and nodded bitterly.
And then, when I turned that smile off, I breathed slowly.
"... I'm sorry I couldn't help you with this one. Make sure you lend a hand in post-processing and reconstruction, including Flower Country and Candlestick Country."
And he said.
I'm sorry about the tone.
"It helps."
And I nod honestly, too.
Of course, this offer should not be entirely bona fide, but should also involve interests.
Sometimes you might want to take down a dragon and tangle with the various interests involved in the spread realm or something like that.
- In fact, there's no way I can support these areas alone, so this place is held.
"Is there anything else?... Sir (Kai) is too abnegate. Now if it's not a shrine with shelter, it's the other way around."
"…… should I demand something in moderation, after all"
"Um, a man with his own creed and an abnegation is pretty scary. I want you to show me as much greed as you do."
"So just a little bit, can I be selfish?
Tilting his neck and inquiring, His Highness nodded to Eagle Deep.
"…… Can you forgive me to cut further south?
The moment I said so.
Grey-haired royal eyes made it even sharper.
Oh, you just stepped on a mine, I had an instinct.
But I don't know what type of mines I stepped on, so there's nothing else to keep talking about for now.
"The city I really want to explore is just south of the Lightning River Harbor, but until now, due to the precarious situation, I have been unable to reach it.
But Lightning River Harbor is about to settle down... "
I want to take that city of the dead by the lake back to where people live.
I don't really want anything, but that's my only sure wish.
"Therefore, I would like to cut some more land to the south."
"That's hard. At least not right away."
The reply was immediate.
"…… why not?
"Do you know that the country is now shaking apart into two factions?
"Ah, uh... the faction that wants to move forward with the development of the southern continent and those that don't like it, was it?"
"Oh. You're a Pioneer and a Defender. - If you spread your hands any further, you can't ignore the latter"
His Highness's brow was engraved with deep wrinkles.
"Think about it. Brother Wang, who left the country, built up his strength on the other continent across the ocean and strengthened his army - besides, he finally had his own mysterious dragon-killer hero.
Besides, when you were the king's brother, why don't you take the dragon killer hero into the flag and take the various races and cut them further south?
"Ah, uh..."
That's what they said, and I finally figured it out.
… This is a completely unusual case of suspected conspiracy.
When they call me back, I can be imprisoned and imprisoned on the spot.
But then...
"Is it difficult to go south?"
With this, Leo will be able to establish himself as the fourth faction in the current three-ways succession war.
I went home once.
Also, I feel like I've gone a long way.
"At least not now."
Shortly after, however, His Royal Highness said so with a shrugged shoulder.
◆
"Now?
"That would be so. If the boulder doesn't show its face to the country, and if it expands its dominion to crumble, it is inevitable that it will be suspected of rebellion for as long as it takes."
His Royal Highness Ethel said so and put his hand on his jaw.
"My brother, King Owen, will be consulted once. I don't know if it's a busy time, but leave it free this summer."
That's what they say in a bright tone, and I think a little.
I don't have a problem opening an appointment, but...
"So, are we going to solve this lightly?
King Owen has heard that he is mediocre for better or worse.
No matter how much for my brother, will it push me through my subordinates lining up my grievances and concerns?
That's what I thought.
"Hmm? There's no way we can solve this."
"What?"
"There's no way we're gonna solve this."
…………
"My brother can't do anything."
…………
It was a certain, trustworthy and confident voice.
"So only consultation is done to the king. - On top of that, work on each faction to work towards a slightly more expansionary policy. Summer is a gorgeous time for court coats."
Oh, yeah.
You do it yourself, all of it.
"I'm going to ask Sir (Kai) to cooperate, no matter what?
"………………… me?
I don't know what to say, but I don't think factionalism or anything will do you any good.
"No, I'm not expecting Sir (Kai) to have skillful political skills or a flowing tongue.
- However, in the summer, the name of the dragon killer will ring in the capital of Fur Tile, "The Capital of Teardrops (Iliastia)"?
They told me that it would be more efficient for me to walk that hero.
If you ask me, you're right.
"I mean, is my role, Kakashi?
"That's the place. Give me a good glance."
"Sure, I'll do my best."
If that's the case, it's an easy story.
Menel seems to be planning to go to his hometown woods, and Lu will be busy rebuilding.
I have to ask Mr. Leistoff to leave a message, and it depends if Vi feels comfortable because he's a rooted free man.
... Will you accompany me around Mr. Tonio?
Expanding your connections to the Fur Tile capital must not be a bad thing.
I think it seems like things are going to go a lot differently than usual.
"... Ah, that's right."
"What is it?
I have to ask you this.
"In the kingdom of Fur Tile, there is a family of aristocrats with only a little edge."
"Ugh."
"Uncle Dagger... Do Your Highness know about Uncle Wizard's Dagger?
At that time, I was probably expecting a smile and a light tone from His Highness.
Yeah, I know, like.
If it's the house, I'll be very kind, you know.
Or even if it's not that far, I don't have a relationship, but I hear a good reputation - or something.
…………
But then again, he looked up.
"Uh..."
"…… Uncle Dagger."
Low, with a dull voice.
"He has a good face for the military.... of the Defenders are tough."
The words spoken were terribly heavy.
