Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Episode 335: This is also an operation.
"Die... did you say?
"Oh, yeah."
King Maintier has Nico and a moody look on his face. I said, "What are you talking about?," driven by the urge to slap him in the head, but suppressing it with desperation, striving to speak to him in the guise of calm.
"You mean Suicide?
"Suzaido? What's that supposed to mean?
"The... give yourself a life..."
"There can't be any stopping!? What are you talking about, you? I have the women I love and the children. I haven't painted enough yet, and I want to explore more delicious ingredients. But the status of this king now is too stubborn. I wanted to do something about it, but I was finally able to find a way to open it."
"You mean that's... dying?
"That's right. Again, I'm not really dying. It means it makes you look dead."
"Uh... could you explain a little more so I can understand?
He opened his mouth to me with a glittering eye as he laughed with cookies and fun. I look at you unexpectedly. When this man is shining his eyes, he doesn't talk about locks.
"I will report to Crimeana that I am dead. I tell Crimeana I am being invaded by the disease. If they send a team of doctors, they'll find out it's a phony disease."
"Um... why are you doing this..."
"They'll think I'm stupid. That's why I wanted you to believe I was really stupid. That way, their spearheads come off… that's what I thought."
"... you okay?
"Besides, this is for Onsar and it's for you"
"For Onsar and me?
"That's right. After my death, the king of the Fladime kingdom will be Onsar."
"Ha!? What the hell are you doing? Onsar is two years old...... right?
"Yes."
"What about Fladime Country...?
"My father, the Great King, stands behind me. Besides, the Chancellor, Ausai, is still alive, and I decided to put a patterson on him. There's no problem with the current prime minister falling. We'll put in place a system."
"Ha..."
"I already have my father's permission. My father himself seemed uncomfortable with being in government with a king named me. Nevertheless, I am not interested in politics or anything, so I had no choice but to be in the present system. If my presence disappears here and the throne passes to Onsar, my father can not hesitate to politicize by the fact that he is the hindsight of his young grandson. Besides, I would tell my son everything I could have. That's what's good for my father, for me, and for my son, and ultimately for the people of Fladime."
"But the other kids..."
"I have no problem at all. Kids say it's a hell of a story about inheriting the throne now that my father is alive... rather than those mothers would disagree. Besides, this is a tough time for Crimeana to look at me. Nobody thinks I'm going to take over the throne at a time like that."
"Is that it!? Well, I don't talk much because I'm talking about Fladime country...... Besides, he said it was for me, but what the hell...?
That being said, King Maintier erased his grin from his face and became a serious face.
"If Onsar were to take over the throne, it would be easier to have a wedding with Lord Pietris, too, wouldn't it?
Hearing those words, I looked up to the ceiling with my eyes closed...
◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆
Aphrodite, capital of the Christian nation of Crimeana. In a room of the temple of the Pope built in its centre, one boy sits on his desk so that he can bite it. If you look closely, he had no left arm and was cleverly reading the letter with his remaining right hand. Needless to say, this is Cassel. When he finishes reading the letter, he groans, sighing deeply, trying to throw it away.
"What the hell is this king? That's insane..."
There is no need for Cassel to look back. The sender of this letter is King Maintier of Fladime Country. Every two or three days he had sent a letter to the Pope. Initially Kassel wanted me to postpone my visit to Aphrodite, but after reading its contents, he lost his word. That's what it said.
"Medical conditions are progressing these days, and we are unable to interact with the lateral chambers. Already, the vacancy is twenty days old and we cannot stand it. For this reason, we ask that you take your medicine as soon as possible. For my part, I want to love the side rooms more than ever. Besides, a few new samurai came to my Castle Alisne the other day, and I would like to join three of them. I particularly want to see these three, and I intend to give them a wide variety of experiences. In order to do this, we need to increase the number of times. Thank you for understanding this distress."
I had no shame in it, no outside hearings, and I didn't expect Cassel to come over with this kind of thing written openly. He arranged the letters of King Maintia delivered so far on his desk, looking through them one by one, in the order of arrival -.
"I had a swelling on my back and tried various medications, but it doesn't work at all. Be sure to send me the medicine that the Patriarchate has for you. Incidentally, the back swelling is about the size of a bump in the lower right corner of the scapula and has a bit of heat. I don't know what to do, so as much as I appreciate your guidance,"
First of all, the first letter I received from King Maintier was this content. Sure, at this time, I thought it was a pseudo-morbidity, and I smiled.
And the letter that arrived three days later said something like this.
"The swelling on your back never shows any signs of pulling. Was it a bad meal? If there is anything you should eat to heal, please let me know. We're going to eat what we're told."
Even at this stage he did not doubt King Maintia's pseudosis. But on the other hand, I wanted to tease this king a little. So Cassel replied by listing a few appropriate weed names and a few ingredients that were considered delicious. Of course there, I did not forget to set a date for my appearance in Aphrodite.
But some time after I sent the letter, I began to receive it from the Fradime country, as I do every day. The contents of the report were that Cassel had eaten the ingredients specified, and this day they were fried and eaten, but boiled and eaten, and the contents that really didn't matter were seriously written and sent.
Cassel was surprised by the unexpected developments, and was exhausted. Most kings will come to Aphrodite before us with many contributions when the order to appear from the Crimean nation is given. When perceived as a crusade by the Crimean Nazi nation, that country has almost certainly been destroyed. For that reason, I thought the horror of the Patriarchate was pervasive in all the nations of the world.
Exceptionally, only Agarta believes that the instructions of the Patriarchate have been totally ignored and that now there is nothing more to subjugate this country than to invade militarily and destroy it thoroughly. But it is an emerging country, and, moreover, the king himself is a slave, and the point is that he is able to ignore the Church because he "does not know," and it was originally, to the extent of piety, that the Fradime nation, which has believed in Crimeanalism for many years, could not have been unaware of the horrors of the Church. Nevertheless, without apologizing otherwise to the Church, Cassel had honestly failed to measure its humanity by sending these letters to Nohon and, at the end of the sentence, to the king named Maintia, who sends such a shameful letter.
"Maybe he's more of a real idiot than he is in the book of Sioux Clays."
But in the Fradime country, there is a masterpiece called King Ribbon. Does King Ogami not know how his son behaves? I can't think of that. It was King Ogami who had so far seen his affairs, and I did not think he would overlook sending such a shameful letter to the Patriarchate.
"Would you like to send a team of doctors to Fladime country once...?
He shrugged without telling anyone as he looked up to heaven.
