Saikyou Mahoushi no Inton Keikaku

Seven Nations Meeting IV

Balmes' Führer has a plump body, is it to wipe the sweat, or he occasionally takes a handkerchief under the veil.

Ars raised the name he had just heard.

"Is he Mr. Duncal?

"Yes, no, no...... my name is Bebett Ijoyce. I'm an immature person who recently received the rank of 24th. I'm honored to be able to see the singles."

Introduction finally uttered with a trembling voice.

It was the head of Balmes who took over when he saw it.

"Lord Duncal is currently on duty, and he's acting as his understudy."

(With that said, did Jean say that? But then why didn't you bring Gilead, 20th place? It's an ex-single)

Is it possible that Gilead has also been incorporated into the operation?

It's too much imitation to interfere with the circumstances of other countries even if you think about it, it's not even meant to be hairy. If you're not single for now, you won't even need to remember.

But to shrink, this seems like an ugly way to mud the country. Probably in his late thirties. A man named Bebet is pathetic. He's going to be more coarse than Cicernia.

Balmes' Führer overflows his sigh as if it were a shame, but that was all. Don't you care much about the outside world?

I wish you'd put me in Fannon's magic canceller, but that's ugly.

I guess I've clearly understood the difference in power just because I'm superior even as a serial magician.

The immense and intense amount of Garginis magic, and the arse that made such a magician kneel, can't you blame him for being so awed no more?

"May I now, Lord Ars?"

"Yeah, thank you"

Now he is punished, but Ars turned to Cicernia, who sits in front of him. The gap in the veil you can see from behind - because her mouth lifted enough to create a laugh.

What are you thinking? I recall that the current story would have included such an interesting one, but there should have been no such word.

Of course, in Ars and Cicernia, the focus will be different, which will be a must in a position.

"We're busy, too. Let's get this over with."

The head of Hulkapudia, probably the oldest, turns off his tantrum.

"Well, it's one of the few things we're going to meet together, even if we don't hurry."

"Lord Ars is here, too. Almost there."

Everyone opens their mouth to the initiative.

There is no voice of Lithia in it.

Jean hears and shuts up.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't think this is the right place to talk about it."

Cicernia tiptoed the tabletop with a full grin.

Exactly. No one opens their mouths any more if they put Ars behind them.

Uncomfortable gaze, but to that extent. It is in the Alpha country that the armament has risen on this occasion.

Cicernia was the first to do so because of the silence.

"The Alpha Nation Approves the Hosting of the 40th Seven Nations Magic Goodwill Competition"

Push the king's seal, held only by the Führer, onto thick parchment paper and place it straight on the round table.

Cicernia turns gently. The inside is sliding.

If there is any objection, offer before pressing the King's Seal. Each time it takes the form of inquisition until the Führer presses the king's seal.

This means that Cicernia has no objection.

This is followed by Luca's Lithia and successive stamps of approval.

Lithia opened her hesitant mouth with her hand pressing the king's seal around.

"If you say so, Lord Ars will also compete this year."

――――

A silent stunner can be seen not only by the Führer, but also by the Mage.

And what about Cicernia? answered with a face that

"Ars also enrolled in the college this year, so not a natural right?

"Nobody's telling you to stop appearing, Mr. Cicernia. But I'm still a magician named after a single student, so I was hoping something would happen to the other students."

Heads of State let the idea convey cold things to their spines.

Ars replied to that.

"If that's the case, wouldn't you trust me to bear the name of a single? In case that doesn't happen."

…… No, you don't doubt the power of Lord Ars!?

Lithia rushes to deny it.

Ars smiled.

"I understand that."

The head of another country stroked his chest down on the words. I don't know if it's relief from the fear of buying anger or because I took the word student safety at the tournament.

The paper is spinning safely because there was such an exchange.

But it was just the location of the Führer of Balmes that the hand stopped.

Everybody's surprised. Throw your gaze.

And.

"How about deregulation this year"

The head of Balmes asks to peek. That's a look that peeps at your complexion, but it also looks like you're looking full of enlightened suggestions about fear.

The amendments and so on have gone up so far, but things have been going smoothly every year since Cicernia became Head of State.

"When it comes to regulation, what exactly?

"No, it's not so much regulation, but why not lift the ban on soliciting students"

――――――

There is an implicit understanding that it is not very nice to solicit students from other countries. Respect for the will of individuals, but it is common for political negotiations to take place behind them if they are acquired.

This proposal tells us to acquiesce to it.

The most feared of the seven countries is a country called Balmes, where there are double-digit magicians but no single person boasts overwhelming power. So it is also understandable that we want to ensure excellent students.

I can, except if that's also the magician of my country. Supply to the army decreases. There will be nothing that pupils who are expected to be in the future can pull out and have a good face.

Even considering the position of protecting humanity.

The question is, is this what I just came up with, or is it a suggestion I've been thinking about?

No, I have a problem with both. Especially for Alpha.

"I can't allow that."

It was Cicernia who raised her voice.

At the same time turn a hateful glance at Lithia.

Ars is also the subject of solicitation more than a student bracket.

If this is a suggestion to pull Ars out... just thinking about it is frustrating.

The anxiety felt by Cicernia became more realistic because today's exchange suggested the possibility of Ars moving to another country.

"But my country, Balmes, has few magicians. We can't deal with this when something happens."

It is a disgrace to expose the incompetence of your country, but it is a fact from others' point of view, and it would not be spared to abandon it if there were magicians who want to acquire it, even if they subtract it.

Cicernia turns her gaze around.

That's not good.

I can't raise my objections with instant answers. It means it's conceived. That it's just a suggestion to think about.

The vote on the proposal, if not flawed, will be decided by a majority vote.

Cicernia assumes just in case. If Ars has traveled to another country. If you decide, acquiescence, that is, letting go of the most powerful magician is nothing but a disadvantage. Cicernia knows that it is mostly Ars feat that Alpha, as a powerful nation, is achieving the greatest results in seven countries. Because I also carried out the medal ceremony.

Assuming they take away all of this year's students, I can say that if Ars stays, that's enough.

I know that Cicernia is not aromatic about the situation in Balmes either, so I wouldn't have mind agreeing if it weren't for Ars.

"So, may I ask whether you agree or disagree?

"Wait a minute! I wonder what it would be like to compensate for a decline in national power in another country, and in the unlikely event of a high rate of demonic invasion, can we ask for cooperation?

Cicernia had to say so, even if she could anticipate a rebuttal. It hurts too much to shut up about what's going on. It's no surprise that Alpha will end up being the weakest country if we do it badly.

Even though there is a Letty in seventh place, it breaks down Cicernia's ambition from the ground up that Alpha, who was running at the top, falls.

"Together we must take our hands and protect mankind. Being broken through in one country means the collapse of Babel. Can the demons wait until reinforcements arrive, even if they ask for help?

There is no such guarantee anywhere. Not to mention the distance traveled across the country even after completing troop formation quickly. Even if you don't call it long, it takes too long from the stage of being attacked. Some sections do not make the country feel comfortable with a temporary assignment, and others require the troop assignment to be made in advance by a country that has transitioned to an alert position.

but...... it's the same everywhere you still don't want strangers to understand the internal circumstances of the army. Though we fight together, we do not normally accept inspection makeshift.

"Huh..."

Ars watched this exchange chill. It's a farce.

Because I'm going to stay with Alpha until I repay Bellick. No matter what favorable conditions you get poked at, Ars is not going to do that. You might think if they told you not to fight, but I don't think you want such a magician.

Naturally, such an idea cannot be perceived by Cicernia, the head of another country, and even if it were put to the mouth, it would not make it credible.

Will the problem be solved if Ars tells Cicernia he's okay, or the answer is no?

That in case the word sticks to anything.

Even 1% of what happens will have to be crushed.

Things progress like ridiculing such haste.

"Now let's ask whether we agree or disagree. Agree with your hands, oppose your silence."

The result is opposite 2 in favour of 5 - but that includes Luca's Lithia.

Cicernia naturally disagrees.

I guess it wasn't until this development that Lithia made Ars' appearance public at that time.

In retrospect, it was after I stamped the king's seal, so there should have been no objection. Doesn't mean Luther Luca and Balmes let the plot go around.

But the outcome could only be described as a decision, a foolishness if you try to make it Cicernia.

Cicernia chewed her lips out of a quiet gushing rage under the veil.

"Thank you for drawing on our country's lapse (...)"

Führer Balmes stamping the king's seal on Eagle Yang. And the paper is stamped with seven king's seals.

"So do you want to dissolve it now"

When the head of the Balmes takes his seat first, it continues to follow.

The last ones left were Luca and Alpha.

"Mr. Lithia, what can you do for me?"

"I didn't expect you to say that."

Two overflowing with grand sighs.

"At any rate, there will be nowhere we can solicit Lord Ars. If Jean hadn't had a date with him, I would have agreed."

"Ars isn't coming to us, is he?

"So far."

Ars answers Jean's question.

"I guess, then Master Lithia"

"I know. We have a brilliant magician this time, so it's hard to get pulled out."

Lithia overwhelmed her sigh and told Jean, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."

Cicernia cannot be pelted to hear the words of denial now. There will be nothing less trustworthy than 'so far'.

If a single were pulled out, it would be unprecedented, but Cicernia would suffer if only this Ars could be considered enough.

We'll have to work something out. I made plans that I would have to consult with the Governor when I left.

The first magician's name is not. That alone will have a huge impact. Double or triple digits are still highly variable in order of magnitude, so the slight difference in strength cannot be measured by rank. Whether it's 10th or 99th, there's a clear difference in power, but that's not so much if it's also 10th and 20th. It can also vary, at least, depending on differences other than strength, for example, magic holdings or magic that can be exercised.

But single-digit - the sequence of magicians called singles leads to power differences as they are.

The 9th place is currently sluggish, but it can be said that the mages above the 8th place are in order of strength as they are.

For this reason, the # 1 Ars can undoubtedly be called the strongest of magicians.

There is little variation in ranking up to eighth place to support that.

Als, don't leave Alpha.

Did the pre-meeting threat work or not coercion, please? Cicernia issued a plea under the veil.

Lithia and others seem somewhat surprised. The relationship between the Head of State and the Single is national, but hierarchically the Head of State is above it.

Even if you can't order it, you have the right to hold it, so if it's not a military requirement, you're allowed to order it.

I guess that follows at least because the single has the consciousness of being the savior of humanity as a magician.

That's why someone named Ars is quite special in this case.

It would be a small part of Alpha to know why - it is only one who knows the bottomless power of Als that he has accomplished the feat he has built up.

"I don't mean to."

I'll try to flatter her shoulders, but in her position, I can't be optimistic that I'm glad. Because you can't be punished for that being false. That's the kind of thing I recommend letting go, though.

"But even though Balmes doesn't have a stable single. I thought there were a lot of double-digit magicians."

Throw in the question without any concern as Jean tilts his little neck.

"Yes, but it's also true that magicians are few compared to other countries. Though I think we should worry about the lack of magicians in the absence of a single with overwhelming strength. You didn't think it was a plugged situation, did you? Even Luther Luca had a voice to send an expedition team."

"I can't help but think about what's already been decided. I'll be right back in the Alpha, but what are you guys gonna do?

"Exactly. This time there will also be a place for discussion in Luther Luca. I don't mean as soon as possible, but we have to make sure we don't get suspicious."

If a move to stop beforehand comes to light, there will be discord among nations. I can be nail-bounced, so I have to move carefully.

Still, Cicernia thought that no matter what hand she used, she couldn't let go of Ars.

"Then I am now, Mr. Lithia, at the magic tournament next"

"Yeah, but you're gonna win."

Cicernia intercepts with an invincible grin says "Let's go, Ars" and leaves the room. Is it such a thing as an overflowing boat where two wicked people talk to each other without a thing?

There was no one in the hallway, and nature and Cicernia's footsteps were faster.

After this there is a meeting place, but Cicernia tells Lynne that she will be home soon.

After a hot afternoon outside.

There was not only one carriage readily available.

Lynne instantly spots her husband's grump and asks Ars with a gaze, but in return for a grumpy mix-up, she says to ask herself back.

Look at the two backs in the carriage. Ars tried to close the door.

"What are you doing, get on it"

If you're going back to the same place, you should take a ride. Exactly. No one can ride with the Führer, but Ars, a single magician, doesn't have to worry about that.

but Ars shook his head sideways.

"No, I need a little help."

……

Obviously, the unhappy air is leaking out of the gap in the veil.

Set aside a beat.

"Als, I understand I can't order you, but I wonder if you have any more to gain by pissing me off. Or that kind of hobby?

It is only in the knowledge that there will be unnecessary speculation if we say that we will just stay on this occasion. This would be all the more so if this happened. It's not a big deal for Ars.

"I don't care how you take it."

As for Ars, I don't have the muscles to pry that far, but I can't even close the door if my slender legs are thrown outside.

Ars, who decides that this is likely to lead to a waste of time on the contrary, reveals himself slowly.

"I just need to talk to Jean for a little personal use. You'll still be here."

"No! If you want to talk to someone from another country, do so within my sight. Lithia said she'd be home soon, too, so it won't be a long story. I'll wait until then. All right, Lynne."

"I don't mind, but if you want to go home soon, don't pinch your mouth."

Just when Lithia shows up with Jean. The other carriage provided belonged to Luca.

"Jean, do you have a minute?

"What's up, Ars?"

Responding casually, its face also changed from not launching a Cicernian carriage to something magical.

"Dear Lithia, may I borrow a little Jean?"

"Yeah, I don't mind..."

At the end of that gaze is Cicernia.

He said, "Thank you. He thinks he's going to be bought."

"Huh, Lord Ars will have a hard time, too. Please come out to Luther Luca whenever you feel unhappy."

Ars could only respond with a bitter laugh, too.

And I guess it's natural.

If there's a Cicernia in talking to Jean, it can't be that Lithia doesn't mix.

In the end, four people enter the Cicernian carriage. It's bad for Lynne, but she's out once to let me know what's approaching her with detection. Even though it's big enough, I can't help it because of the four-man.

"So, what's up, Ars?"

"Make it short. Since when do we have a massive crusade in Balmes?

"I don't know more about it because I've heard it from people, too, but it's been a month."

"Are you sure you're still crusading?

…… Yeah, I know it's a little long for me too, but I'm sure it's moving carefully. "

I guess Balmes' ninth-place Duncal is in the lead.

"Do you know if Gilead's in on it?

"I don't know, I'm surprised there's just 24th, but if you're not accompanied, you can see that Mr. Gilead's in on it,"

Ars tidied up just a little and immediately opened his mouth. When I thought it would be a bad idea to keep the two Führers in captivity any longer - a light knock on the door - that said Cicernia or Lithia listening to it in silence.

"Dear Ars, four are coming out."

"Okay. Jean, at the end of the day, is the ninth-place strength called Duncal enough to be called a single? How about Gilead and Duncal?"

Ars has only seen Gilead in materials. If I knew Jean had been put in, I wouldn't have waited six months to turn him in.

Ars has never even seen a duncal man in a dossier.

"I'm sorry, Duncal. I only know his name, too. I just felt Mr. Gilead was impressively close. One for the single, that's about two drops compared to the eighth-ranked Garginis, but I'm pretty sure it's closest to ninth."

"Right. Thank you. Excuse me, Master Lithia, for taking the time."

"I'm fine. Is that better than that already?

"Yes, let's keep it around here because it's not a very good story to hear. If you'd like to invite me, I'll have a few more thought-provoking topics for you when I disturb Luther Luca."

With a delightful smile under his veil, Lithia takes Jean's hand reaching out from the outside.

"You'll be in a hurry to get to the tournament, so when you're done, I'll confirm your invitation again."

"I'm waiting for you," Ars maintained a disguised look close to the limit.

When the two of them leave and Lynne joins them instead, the less and the catacotto and carriage move out.

"What's for personal use? I'm glad you asked."

"It's for personal use. I wasn't going to report it to anyone."

…… That's why. "

A tone close to anger, but its face bore the light that found light. Of course, the face veil has been removed as soon as it runs.

"And are you really going to go to Luther Luca or something?

"Because it's a good opportunity. It's time for Alpha's AWR technology to slump, and I've been interested for a long time."

It wasn't much of a call in itself. Even if the look on his face at that time was like a snatch.

Even when Ars calls it a slump, there are many AWRs he makes that are one-of-a-kind, but he understands from previous experience that the technology will be successfully converted.

So if Ars makes something, it derives from it and changes to various forms.

As a resident magic generator was used for street lights - magic lights, etc.
