Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Lesson 35: Invitation from Teito ②
"Mm-hmm. The Regent was competent. I lost a spare man too."
The conversation with His Excellency the Chancellor continues. Will all I have been called to do is ask how the kingdom of Juka is? If that's all, we'll be done talking soon. I wondered what I would do when I got back to the hotel, and His Excellency the Chancellor's face changed.
"Well, it was no other one who called you. One thing I wanted to ask you."
Hey, what the hell? I don't know how hard it is.
"Nothing else. Do you know where Falco is, the Wizard of the House of Birtham?
"Master Falco!? Do you know Master Falco? Falco, the Great Mage, is my master. Raw Hate and..."
"Right, still dead? If you knew what the end of the line was, would you tell me?
I told him that my master's arms had been cut off, that my chest had been pierced with a sword and that the chief dragon had eaten me to death.
"It's not like Falco. It's the end. That's a lot of hand work to cut off that Falco arm. I'm still glad I didn't get my hands on the Juka Kingdom. We would have been devastated had we invaded the kingdom of Juka, albeit with double the number of soldiers"
"I'm afraid, how could you tell me about Master Falco?
"Falco and I are childhood friendly. Yes, Falco is a person of the Headata Empire. You've excelled in witchcraft since you were young. By the time I graduated from the University of Magic, I was able to handle almost every attribute of magic. Fire magic, in particular, is one of the top wizards in the Empire. He was a wizard who was promised the future."
"Why is that archdeacon in the kingdom of Juka?
"It's... crawling into the Empress's room at night. I managed to stop them, but a few of the guards died."
... Master, what are you doing?
"Only then could we have managed to make it aye free. Whatever you say, you've been a genius magician since the beginning of the Empire. But Falco was a magic college instructor at the time, but he was too coached. Because I can use healing magic, the idea was that I should heal if I get hurt, so I have no mercy. Because it was such a tough class, so many young people were turning down their wizards."
Wow, I know ~. I don't know if anyone has ever been taught by a master, but seriously, it was tight. Because you're really going to attack one step before you die. Even the kids were merciful, so... Then Eryl came and full bocco...
Those hell days come back to life. I'm crying.
"Within the Empire, Falco's reputation was not fragrant. I admit to being a good wizard, but it was an assessment that my personality sucked. Come there and crawl into the Empress at night. You know I can't do it without you."
Isn't that right? It's a totally death row, isn't it?
"As for Falco, he was just killed. I decided to keep him locked up for a while, you bastard. I broke the prison and crawled into the Empress again at night."
Huh!? Twice?? Master, what are you seriously doing -!
"The princess escaped the ordeal by driving a samurai, but the problem is Falco. Even the Crusaders were formed in the Empire. That's when he escaped to my mansion."
Also, do something tricky.
"I tried to turn Falco in, but he said he wanted to escape to another country. For me too, Falco was childhood friendly and I didn't want him to die if I could. Lord Bertham happened to be there. We were able to escape to the kingdom of Juka at the mercy of the Marquis. The Marquis and I have been so kind ever since."
Is that okay with you telling me that? Though I thought so, there is no way that a prime minister would lightly say that he would make his position worse. This would mean that this person has a degree of power that no one can say anything about saying such a thing.
Apparently, the master played a hell of a three-sentence play when the city fell. The Chancellor slaughtered me in front of the Crusaders (pretending, of course) and said, "Ugghhh... my childhood tame, I didn't know Gremont would have a fatal injury!! He said," and disappeared in pain. Isn't that how you find out? I think so, but they did something there at the hands of the Chancellor. I guess this Excellency is an excellent person in that sense as well.
Talking about that, one man comes into the room and gives his ears to His Excellency the Chancellor. What? Like what? And surprising, my lord. I was wondering what the hell was going on.
"His Majesty the Emperor is going to see you. Thank you for your hard work, but could you join me in the process?"
You can't say you don't like it. I will follow you behind my lord very closely. A few minutes walking through a maze of passageways, you get in front of a stupid big door.
"Stay there for a while."
His Excellency the Prime Minister enters and exits first. After a while the door opens and is prompted to go inside. I see a throne in the back of a fairly large room. A soldier stands as he progresses. Stop here, I guess that means.
I kneel down and put my right hand against my left chest.
"I'll see you first. I serve the kingdom of Juca, the Marquis of Birtham, my name is Linos. I admire your honor and rejoice."
In the meantime, say a tattooed greeting and drool your neck. Raise the face of His Excellency the Chancellor, raise your head in the voice of and see the face of the Emperor.
He is a stern face. He's a little old, but when he's young, he looks like him. I get that impression because I'm growing a moustache. After a while, the emperor opens his mouth.
"... every time... duh.... so ah... ku... but... i"
Can't you hear me? Give me a little more voice!
If you look at His Excellency the Prime Minister, he is nodding with a Doya face. No, don't snort. I can't hear you!
"It is unusual for you to be allowed to see without a title. I would like to ask His Majesty directly. Thank you for your generosity and answer in detail."
and His Excellency the Chancellor spoke, and then His Excellency the Chancellor asked me questions about what had been asked so far in the stuffing of Kushana and what had just been asked by His Excellency the Chancellor, and answered the same contents. Of course the story of Master Falco is off-the-record. The Emperor listened to me with interest.
"... gi... I did.... but... yes."
After all, it is difficult to hear His Majesty the Emperor. The Chancellor can often hear that voice. Do you have any special skills? With that in mind, Your Excellency prompted me to leave, and I left while I was watching.
After this, His Excellency the Chancellor said he had affairs, so I was deposited with the guide's squire. Looks like you'll be inviting me to the Chancellor's mansion later.
I came straight back from Miyagi "Cucumber" to the hotel. The time is already around noon. And I'm tired. In the meantime, do you want some lunch?
