Seirei Gensouki ~Konna Sekai de Deaeta Kimi ni~

Lesson 60: Reunion with Celia-Clair

The day after Miharu and I finished shopping and went back to the Rock House, Rio took the three of them and moved them to the Kingdom of Galark.

Finding a hidden spot in the woods, located near Amando, defines it as the home for the time being.

Further the next day, Rio was single and headed to the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Beltram.

From where Mitsukumi is, to the King's capital of the Kingdom of Beltram, it's a distance that Rio can travel back and forth in less than a few hours if he travels at all costs.

Nevertheless, Miharu and the others are told to vacate the house for up to three days because it is unclear how long it will take to find Celia.

You won't have to worry if you just live in the house, as it has all the supplies you need for everyday life, and it also explains how to use the demonic and spiritual items you have in your home.

Nevertheless, we've only just come to this world and Miharu's anxiety should be great, and if we vacate the house for a long time, we should be worried.

As for Rio, I wanted to make sure Celia was safe as soon as possible and return early.

"That's..."

As he made his way to the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Beltram, paying attention to any anomalies around him, Rio discovered that many humans were forming a line on earth to move around.

A little concerned and floating to hover on the spot, he strengthens his vision with spirituality, gazes at it and looks at it.

"Army?

In the direction of progress is the Kingdom of Galark.

There is a city in the Kingdom of Beltram before you reach the border, but if you go further, you will soon reach Amando.

Rio put his hand on his chin and looked down on the ground to reflect.

"Let's explore a little."

As he slowly descended to the ground and landed a little further from the troops, he manipulated Odo and Mana, causing Rio to wrap multiple winds of Odo around himself.

The figure of Rio then integrates slightly with the surrounding landscape, which eventually becomes completely invisible from the surroundings.

This is the spiritual art of optical camouflage with an odd wind.

Most importantly, they are not even blocking sounds and signs, and when those who can see Odd stare at them, they easily see them, and those who have a high perceptual ability of Odd, even if they cannot see Odd, feel uncomfortable.

In addition, when a person is struck by an external shock, the camouflage can never be caught off guard, but it is an effective cover against the human race.

When he made sure the surgery was activated properly, Rio headed to the army early enough.

"Maybe it's going to be a war with my own country. Are you sure you can win, us?"

Discovering a group of ordinary soldiers in conversation as they marched, Rio listened.

"Right. I don't know about the counter-revolutionary army, but we're rebels. Which one of you is a traitor?"

"Hey, don't be silly. If you ask me, I'll whip you."

One of the soldiers lurked his voice and noted the men's conversation.

"That being said. It's true you're running from Wang Du, isn't it?

"... we have Master Flora. And the legendary brave man showed up. I'm not so pessimistic."

"A brave man. Something doesn't boil down to it. I can't believe there's a legend with us."

"But you guys saw that pillar of light, too, right? It's a direct call from the top. I don't think you're lying."

Rio opened his eyes slightly.

(You say you're a brave man?

Speaking of brave men, they are the ones who come out of the gaga story.

Apostle of the gods.

The heroes who once fought the Demons.

All Rio knew was that much superficial information.

(Those six pillars of light summoned the brave?

As far as the men's conversations go, they will.

Moreover, from circumstantial evidence, the likelihood seemed quite high.

Heritage says there were six legendary braves, so it also matches the number of pillars of light.

(If the pillar of light summoned the brave, Mi and the others would not be brave...)

It also coincides with Miharu's testimony that she was caught in a swirl of light.

Then the brave men are likely to be two of Miharu's acquaintances.

"Where are we headed in the first place? Is this the kingdom of Galark?

The conversation between the men was going on while Rio was thinking.

"The majority of us are waiting in Marquis Rodin territory on the way. Only great men and some troops go to the Kingdom of Galark. I don't think we're gonna be able to walk around the country with this crowd of boulders."

"You're pretty sure the Kingdom of Galark will be on your side, aren't you?

"You know what? If it's on the road from the top, it is."

"If that's the case, there's a little hope."

"There's Master Flora, and he even showed up brave. Can we just think of Yasutai?"

Quite a bit of information can be collected just by walking lightly together.

(Are these the ones here who collapsed in the coup? Does having the Kingdom of Galark on your side mean that it will be hostile to those in your own country?

When Rio was once in the Strahl region, the kingdoms of Beltram and Galark should have been in friendship.

Maybe things have changed in the last few years.

If the destination is Marquis Rodin territory, you won't have to worry about harming Miharu and the others because you won't even go inside the Kingdom of Galark or go to war.

(I'd like to find out a little bit about who the brave guy is)

Maybe I know Miharu and the others.

Even if not, there is also a desire to know what the existence of a brave man appeared for.

Nevertheless, I don't think there will be a big story coming out of the average soldier even if he stays here.

If you want to hear any more of this, you're going to need to sneak into a place where nobles and senior officers of the troops are.

Or do you want to go straight to the brave man and see his face?

Rio patrolled.

(And if the people here are the rebels of the Kingdom of Beltram...)

Maybe Celia's in here too.

It's unclear which faction Celia belongs to, but it's worth looking for.

Rio decided to dive deep into the unit.

Fortunately, the break seems to have overlapped and the troop movement stops.

In the meantime, Rio breaks into the interior and focuses on where nobles and high-ranking officials seem to be.

(None)

Surprisingly or naturally, some of the young nobles and knights had a lot of faces like Rio had seen somewhere.

But we can't just find Celia.

(That's all that's left)

Turn your gaze toward the carriage with the most rigorous security.

There's probably a commander of this unit in that carriage.

(Sounds like some brave guys in there)

So far we have not found a figure who looks like a brave man.

If I were there, I would be in that carriage.

That's when Rio tried to move his leg.

"Mm-hmm!"

One young man emerged from the carriage as he stretched.

"Uh, you're hurting my ass"

And one young man appeared out of the carriage with his face (and only) as he held his ass down.

He is Hiroaki Sakada, one of the summoned brave men.

Flora and Roana also stepped out of the carriage behind Hiroaki.

"Dear Hiroaki, I can't help it."

Roana blushed slightly and praised Hiroaki.

Flora, right next to it, is also blushing.

"Uh, bad, bad"

Hiroaki scratched his head looking bad.

(Is that the brave one?

The appearance is Japanese, the language spoken is Japanese, the appearance is full of gaps and mediocre itself, but it seems likely.

Then there.

"Lord Brave."

Stiad, son of the Duke of Jugneau, came to Hiroaki with several knights.

"Oh, uh..."

They didn't match his face and his name, and Hiroaki tilted his neck.

"It's Stierd-Jugneau."

Stiard smiles and raises his name.

Flora and good Roana, I also remembered Rio about the people around here.

Flora was, in a way, the person who changed Rio's life, and Roana was one of Rio's classmates in a central position.

I remember my face even though I don't like it because I've been obsessed with myself when I was in Stiard.

By the way, Rio doesn't know that Stiard is Latifah's brother.

Sometimes I don't want to tell you about when Latifah was a slave, because it was somehow hard to hear from Rio.

Of course, I've tried to ask Latifah who he ordered to assassinate Rio.

But Latifah didn't even know the name of the Duke of Jugneau, so in the end, Rio couldn't know that the Duke of Jugneau was a mastermind.

So it's also not linked to the fact that Stiard is Latifah's brother.

"Oh, the son of the Duke of Jugnault? Nice to meet you. I'm Hiroaki Sakata, no, Hiroaki-Sakata."

"... Best wishes. Lord Brave."

Stiard held the hand offered by Hiroaki without breaking his smile.

"So, what can I do for you?

"Yes, actually, I'd like you to do an archery for Lord Brave."

"Archaeology?

"Yes. Because of this, the legendary brave man is close to us. I'd like you to take this opportunity, Professor."

"Well, if you say so, there's nothing I can teach you because my mould is my style."

Hiroaki turns to his face in trouble.

Hiroaki has never held a knife before our lifetime.

Does it still have to do with the power of the brave to get a peek of confidence somewhere?

"I'd like to see Hiroaki fight too."

Then Roana, who had refrained behind Hiroaki, suggested so.

"Uh, well, if Roana says so..."

Isn't it stingy to match?

Hiroaki glanced at Flora as well.

"How's Princess Flora?

"Ah, yes. I'd like to see it, too."

"Right. Then you might want to try. I wanted to see how much I could do."

Confirming that the place had been served, Hiroaki nodded.

Take out your own god outfit, the sword, out of nowhere.

"It's a decision. Then my opponent, please."

Step forward and Stiard smiles invincibly.

As they paid for their surroundings, the two stood up and faced each other with their weapons.

"Anytime you want. Don't worry, my weapon is embodied with a blade pulled."

Hiroaki said as he set up his sword.

"Is that the Divine Costume of the Brave..."

Stiard sends an intriguing gaze at a weapon called the first knife he sees.

The sharpness seems sharp, but it seems brittle for a long time.

But whatever it looks like, it doesn't change that it's a divine costume.

Stiard tightened his mind.

"Okay, I'm coming!

Say, with magically enhanced physical abilities, Stiard approaches Hiroaki at once.

"Oh, that's fast!

Hiroaki took Stiard's simulated sword from the front.

The two glances cross as they approach each other.

Hiroaki smiles with a nigga.

"Wow!

He shouted and pushed Stiard back, not using his magically enhanced powers as anything.

Stiard's body is blown away by chance.

"Damn! You think I'm overwhelmed?

Stiard was stunned.

It's an unimaginable idiot from a body that doesn't even have muscles on it.

"Let's go!

Hiroaki waves a sword and approaches.

"With such a big score!

Reading the orbit of Hiroaki's swinging knife, Stiard gently flaunted it.

Don't miss the gap in the sweeping attack, and Stiard waves his sword straight into the horizontal giraffe.

"Abou!

Moments later, Hiroaki's body accelerated, lightly casting a steered sword.

"Hey, what, stupid!

"Now it's our turn!

Hiroaki's knife strikes the steed as he makes a noise through the sky.

"Knock."

It was a stiad that barely took Hiroaki's blow, but it keeps blowing up big.

Hiroaki approached Stiard to chase him.

As the battle between the two got a little hotter, those around them watched the mock fight to eat in.

Rio also stares at the battle between the two in silence from afar.

(Power and speed, but the use of a knife and body judgment are a mess.)

It was the sentiment Rio had towards Hiroaki.

Not weak, but at the moment, it would be about the strength of one human knight at best.

I'm only an amateur and I have stretches, but I don't feel much taste.

I don't think there's a man in this world who knows how to handle a knife, and he doesn't seem to be able to take off the style of combat he fights on his own as it is.

It was an abusive way of fighting that I would have been wasting if I had used a normal knife.

Nevertheless, it is remarkable that the amateur of complete combat is able to fight the knights of this world one-on-one while bending.

(Is that the power of the brave? Sounds like it enhances physical abilities and physical strength, but something is going to happen to that knife)

Even the same Japanese shouldn't have the same fighting power as Hiroaki.

I guess that's because Hiroaki is a brave man, but Rio thought it might be that knife that is making Hiroaki a brave man.

Hiroaki is supposed to be speaking Japanese, but a conversation has been established with the people of this world.

I guess that knife is absorbing Hiroaki's odds and causing the event on its own.

There's still going to be hidden balls, but I don't think I'm going to use that in a mock fight, and I don't think I'm going to get any more noticeable information if I'm here.

Rio returned his heel and resumed his search for Celia.

But in the end, Rio couldn't find Celia.

It seems like we've wasted our legs, but it's huge that we've been informed about one of the brave guys.

Hiroaki was not acquainted with Miharu, but if you look for the other brave men, you will reap just knowing that any of them are likely to meet.

Nevertheless, there is no longer any use for this occasion if Celia is not here.

For the king's capital of the kingdom of Bertram, Rio followed the occasion.

Reaching the Kingdom of Beltram, it was the presence or absence of its own nomination arrangements that Rio confirmed first.

Rio's nomination arrangements, which have not been distributed within the Kingdom of Galark, remained firmly in force within the Kingdom of Bertram.

The arrangements depict a sketch of Rio at the time, and other features of it are written.

"That's a hassle."

Rio whispered.

There are several possible reasons why Rio is being appointed exclusively within the Kingdom of Beltram, but there is no guarantee that it is correct, and I don't care.

The only important thing is that we should avoid Rio operating within the Kingdom of Beltram as Rio in the future.

Nevertheless, I feel a little gloomy considering explaining to Miharu and the others that I am a nominee in the future.

I'm a little hesitant to explain, no matter how innocent "they're actually arranging for a nomination".

But it will be difficult to remain hidden forever when we are going to live together in the future.

It's not strange to be questioned if you keep living purposefully to hide from people even though you have a city.

Because if you learn the words, you will inevitably broaden the scope of Miharu's actions.

In a small sigh, Rio walked away in front of a bulletin board with nomination arrangements affixed to it.

As it is, Rio goes to the commercial block.

The last time I was in this city was over three years ago, but there seems to be no noticeable change in the view of the city in sight.

But Rio was feeling a little uncomfortable.

The coup d 'état has just broken out, but the city is strangely vibrant.

Even though how many kings have not changed, there have been coups d 'état enough to rock the upper echelons of the country, so it is usually something that is likely to affect the market as well.

A little concerned, Rio decided to try collecting information at the outdoor store.

"I heard there was a coup in the royal castle in this country, but the city has been vibrant for a long time."

When I order more meat skewers, I try to casually ask an open-air woman in the guise of a traveler.

"Uh, well, I'm pretty sure you weren't a bit lively until the other day. But the air's blown away already."

And the woman who runs the outdoor shop replied with a happy grin.

"Is something wrong?

"Something came down on the valiant. We're all floating around now that the celebration is coming up."

"Are you a brave man"

"Oh, you've heard about gaga, too. That brave man. You saw the giant pillar of light rise the other day, right? A big light rises from the royal castle. The brave man came with that light!

The woman looks a lot more excited.

You don't really feel it as Rio, but you mean he was so big of a brave man to the people?

Or is it caused by the fact that those who don't normally see magic have seen such a massive phenomenon?

"Has a brave man also appeared in this country? I'm glad to hear that."

"Oh, I congratulate you. Hopefully this country will stabilize."

"Right."

Smiling small and agreeing, Rio filled his stomach with meat and walked away from the spot.

(Has a brave man also appeared in this country? Looking for Dr. Celia. Looks like you should look into this brave guy.)

When I made that decision, I first decided to head to the Royal College where I used to go.

If Celia is still in lecture, she should be there.

She might know something about the brave.

With the use of optical camouflage spirituality, infiltration, even during the day, is not difficult for Rio, but leads to Celia's lab, which is in the library, relying on her former memory.

(Not here...)

But all her personal belongings, which were in the room, had been removed and had become a stuffed shell.

Once, go outside the room and check the door again.

With the wooden slab engraved with Celia's name on the door, there seems to be no doubt that this is her lab.

(Then why aren't you there? What does that have to do with the coup?

The word execution, imprisonment, caught his head, and Rio was driven by anxiety.

When he made sure there were signs of people inside the other lab just beside him, Rio entered it.

"Mmm."

Suddenly, a door opens from behind and a male instructor tries to look back.

Rio took the back of it before the man tried to say who (what) words.

"Excuse me. I have an errand for Celia-Clair, who is a lecturer at the Royal College, where is she?

When he gently touched the man's head, poured the odds in, and forced control of the flow of odds in the subject's body in just a few seconds, he let the man go, and Rio threw questions.

"Oh, Celia, are you looking for you? She's..."

Then the man stared at Rio blurry with an uncertain eye and threw up all the information he knew about Celia himself.

Right now, Rio is not in the eyes of the lecturer's man.

He speaks without any vigilance, self-interpreting at will so as not to be uncomfortable with Rio.

It is a form of powerful illusion by spiritual art, similar to but more advanced in perception inhibition.

The surgeon cannot know what visions the surgeon sees, but he can make the surgeon see the reality of fiction as convenient for the surgeon.

On the other hand, it is difficult to handle because it requires elaborate odd control and interference in mana.

Not a very dark hand I would try to use a lot, but this is very helpful when interrogating in an emergency.

The disadvantage is that you need to touch the object directly to manipulate the odds in your body, which can easily be obstructed if the person is good at manipulating the odds.

They are also easily released even if those around them notice the disturbance of the Odd of the surgeon, and even if they succeed in exerting illusions, they are resisted by strong spiritual bearers and their effects are attenuated.

Furthermore, the duration of the procedure is not that long, and the flow of odds must continue to be manipulated by touching the subject regularly in order to sustain the illusion state.

Therefore, if this illusion is to be applied, it is necessary that the opponent is alarmed and is not good at manipulating odds.

Incidentally, a human race can easily perform this illusion for a price, but it is also very difficult in Rio to succeed in this against the people of the Spirit.

Also, after waking up from illusion, the characteristic symptom of blurred state appears, so those who know the existence of illusion easily realize that they were cast into illusion.

"Thank you. Helpful. Now if you'll excuse me."

"No, never mind"

Leave a thank you and Rio walks out of the room.

A man's voice sounded vain in the lab.

In a garden within the royal castle of the Kingdom of Beltram, the most talented and famous Celia-Clair in the history of the Kingdom of Beltram stood with a worrying look on his face.

"Celia, what's wrong, in a place like this?

Such a thin voice can be heard on her back.

The Lord of the voice guessed, and Celia looked back with her discomfort shoved into her chest.

It was Charles-Albeau standing there.

He is currently the son of Helmut-Albeau, in the Kingdom of Bertram, who is appointed by King Philip III to partition the reign of the country.

"I'm just here to hit the wind between studies. Looks like I stuffed the roots a little too much."

Celia answered with a perfect smile, even though she was disgusted by the sweet grin in her sight.

"Oh, it's your beauty to always work too hard. I guess I need it when I get a little rested. But with me, I can't impress you to think about distracting yourself in a place like this."

To that smile Charles felt better and approached her familiarly.

And speaking to Celia with a voice color that includes some blame.

"... I'm sorry. I thought you were busy."

Celia had a bottomless sense of rejection, but concealed it with a troubled, ambiguous smile.

That's the biggest resistance she can have right now.

Celia-Claire, she is the eldest daughter of the prestigious Earl of Clare family of magic within the Kingdom of Bertram comparable to the Duke of Fontine's.

In recent years, the new measuring stone she developed has been credited with allowing the measurement of the total amount of magic, albeit vaguely, resulting in innovative developments in magic, which also attracted attention from neighbouring countries.

She is now twenty-one years old, and her marriageable age as a nobleman has slightly passed, but she remains single.

Until the other day, a situation had arisen whereby many nobles, both inside and outside the Kingdom of Bertram, would propose to her in an attempt to plunder the merits of such a genius.

The man who put an end to it is this Charles-Albeau.

The age was magnificent, he already had six wives, and by order of Helmut it was decided to make Celia his seventh wife, in order to bind the competent Celia to the country.

In his relations with the empire against Proxia, Count Clare, originally the father of Celia, was one of the nobles of the neutrals.

But now that the coup has broken out, it has been incorporated into Helmut's forces.

Nor did my father, Count Claire, have enough influence in such a state to bounce back Helmut's demands.

"If it's for you, I'll leave most of my errands behind, I will."

Celia almost had goosebumps on the nerves of this man, who would throw up a sweeter dialogue than the nectar of flowers spreading in the surrounding gardens with a straight face.

I just want to kill myself thinking that a man like this is going to get his body dirty in the near future.

But I don't have the courage to die.

I don't want to die.

I still want to live.

There's a lot of research left to do, and there's a lot of dreams and stuff I'd like to try.

One of them is to make love normally and have a happy marriage normally, but that dream was no longer on the verge of collapsing.

We know that political marriage is important as a nobleman, but Celia had just the influence to make it happen, if not in this situation.

Well, I couldn't find that person, so I'm single after the right age.

"You're good."

Even though she felt the goosebumps of her hair, Celia uttered the words in the guise of a slightly lit breeze.

I don't like it.

I want to leave this country right now.

That's how disgusting I am, but if I get caught and Celia turns out to have fled of her own accord, my parents' standing should be pretty bad.

That would even bother my family.

If we are to escape, we need to escape without being caught in anyone's eyes so that they do not think they have escaped of their own free will.

But she doesn't have that power.

Recently, she was reasoned that the situation was because of the situation, and Celia, an important figure, was forced to live under house arrest in the Royal Castle, even accompanied by a escort.

It was impossible to get out of the castle without being seen in this state.

I don't think I can live by myself growing up as a nobleman, even if I get away with it.

It is salvation that the upper management is letting me do whatever I want, at least because I do my research on my stomach and my accomplishments are recognized.

"Speaking of which, how are the summoned brave men and their companions? I never thought even my developed measuring stone would make magic impossible to measure..."

Celia asked such questions in order to satisfy her own intellectual desires so that she could forget her gloomy mood.

Because I can only forget what I don't like while I'm doing research.

"Oh, they're really great. Though he's still young, he's calm and personable. The rest of the kids are doing their best, even if they don't get the word."

Celia was shy and giggled as if she mistakenly thought she had missed the topic or Charles had satisfied her self-esteem.

That is how we speak of the brave men summoned in the Kingdom of Beltram.

It was the boy who was summoned to the Kingdom of Bertram, two girls in three, of whom it was one boy who was a brave man.

The brave man is a seventeen-year-old boy with soft waist, blonde hair and a very neat appearance, with a charm that attracts his surroundings.

The reputation within the royal castle is very high because he swallowed things up and promised to cooperate with us to the kingdom without any deep confusion over the sudden summons.

Those summoned with the brave also have no divine costume, but a terrible amount of magic, and they are being educated with the brave to harness that magic.

"Then I have work to do, so it's time to go back to. If you stay out there forever, you'll be cold, so you better pull it up."

Charles has said that when he is responding appropriately while immersed in thought.

"I get it. I'm thinking about going back to the lab if we hit the wind a little bit more."

When Celia replied with a beautiful piece of work, Charles laughed at the distraction and walked away from the scene.

Looking behind him, Celia smiles small.

Exhaling and looking at the flowers filling the quiet (nasty) space, Celia decided to return to her own lab.

The knight of the escort comes with him silently following her like that.

I also hated Celia about this escort guy.

Sometimes, it's not good enough to stare at your face.

That's about it, I can still stand it.

But this man often sends a glimpse into his chest or skirt between escorts.

He may not think he was noticed, but Celia was aware of it.

Celia thought she wasn't much of a manly body, but the physiological aversion to actually being sent these glances to remember is irresistible.

I still felt the gaze of the man walking behind me in his glutes, and Celia felt relaxed.

"Then I'll go back to my research."

I told her with a slightly blurry voice, and Celia closed the door to the room.

Into the room, alone, he exhales heavily.

Gachari.

I heard the door just closed from behind.

Was it the man from the escort who opened the door?

What's with the door open without a knock?

Celia looked back uncomfortably.

"What can I do for you... Huh?

It was a strange boy standing there.

I have a gentle, carefree grin that reassures people, and the lines are thin, but if you look closely, you can see that they are wearing a rigorous (semen) figure.

Age may still be a little young, but honestly, appearance may be in the middle of Celia's ideal.

"... what happened to the knight of the escort?

But that's why we can't talk alertly.

Celia asked about the man's identity in a harsh voice.

Maybe he's a middleman from another country who came after himself.

Choosing a man or woman who looks good between us is the usual means.

I want to get out of the royal castle, but honestly, I don't want to leave like that.

I don't even know what kind of treatment awaits me when I go.

Celia is not ready for melee fights, though.

If you want to fight back, you will use magic to attack.

Stinging and backsliding, Celia tried to distance herself from the boy.

Then.

"If you're an escort, you're on guard without any anomalies. Long time no see, Dr. Celia."

A boy smiled and spoke to Celia in a well-eared voice.

"Who?"

Celia remembered her nostalgia for some reason.

I felt that before, there was a similar occasion to this.

Celia tilts her neck slightly.

"It's Rio. I came back to say hello."

Saying so with a bitter smile, the boy took the necklace.

Then the color of the hair instantly changes from gray to black.

There was a boy there with the shadow of someone Celia knew well.

Seems to have grown quite a few years without seeing it, but with black hair, I know that very well.

"Rio... what is it? Rio!"

The gloomy mood I had felt earlier blew up all at once.

I don't care about that now.

Tears in his eyes, Celia hugged Rio.
