In the Great Hall, where Japanese J-POPs, ballads, and various other music were played, half of the poets and nobles listened to music from different worlds and half of the poets and nobles surrounded the cherry blossoms on BGM.

"Well... can we get together at New Year's Eve? And eat them, huh?

"Yes, originally, more for those who cook at home to rest..."

Sakura said that and told the surrounding aristocrats about Japanese culture, and Mizuki explains the business relationship.

"Yeah, on Earth, we sometimes cross and do business with vehicles that fly across a variety of countries. For example…"

"On Earth, there is a peaceful festival competing for martial arts and physical abilities…"

The moment explains the Olympics. Other than that, Yamato explains the clothes of the students who are playing right now, and Principal Sakurada is in conversation with the King.

"Eh, the song now is rock, in the category of... erm... upbeat..."

Tama River Teaching answers questions from the bards, even with the help of other faculty members. They were the most enthusiastic in this group, especially in relation to making songs a business. Thus, while surrounded by the nobles and the bards, they managed to carry out the request.

In the meantime, Kate was briefly interested in the game with Lion about what he was doing.

"... attack 3-F enemy groups with 2-E ambushes"

Kite makes the pawn on the board appear visible to the opponent and directs the attack to the designated point. What the kites are playing is a kind of chess or military chess game. It's a game that's been in Enefia since ancient times, and it's one of the games that Lion specializes in.

When Kate was put through the room, there were already magic items available for this game, and Lion offered to talk while he hit them.

"But! Seriously!... put aside the joke... use 4-F ambushes to 3-F as well"

Meanwhile, his opponent, Lion, once smiled invincibly before using ambushes in his own defense against Kite's attack.

This play has long been a play that has spread to the nobles of Enefia, but it has been a play and an unapologetic refinement. Almost everything that could actually happen on the battlefield was possible, mainly because the nobles and the military were developed to train as commanders in war.

For this reason, the other pawn could not be discovered unless it was within the enemy range of the other pawn, or could not be discovered unless it was lurking even within the range, or attached considerable importance to reality. If the game board was a demon prop, it was the only game I could play. In terms of difficulty, it was a game that used wisdom more than a bad Earth simulation game.

The rules are basically just like chess, only one pawn can stand out and move at a time. If King gets knocked down, he's a loser too. Except that pawns also use Enefia's own objects, such as dragon cavalry, there is no big difference.

However, the difference is that the presence of the fort set on the board and the pawns can each be sent special instructions, and although the pawns used as ambushes cannot be attacked, they can also be moved and persuaded in the order of the opponent. You can only take action that affects them at your own turn, but you can take any other action you want as long as it doesn't affect them.

Even more special is' King '. This King gives players one ability to possess. Doing so makes you assume that you actually stand on the battlefield.

In fact, this was used in Enefia by senior military officials and guild masters to learn how to fight in a mass battle, or rather a practical game. Therefore, Lion held it in the name that Kite would also be doing it.

The two of us were interested in playing like that, but if it was Lion and Kite, Kite was one better player - trying to play entertainment, and Lion couldn't notice and do it -.

"Launch attack on Fort 5-C."

"Ha!?

Now apparently, it was unexpected, and Rion looks really surprised. That said, he was wanted as a lion and a leader of a nation. When you decide on the next hand in an instant, you give immediate instructions.

"Shit! Fort 5-F chooses defense!

As such, Lion takes some action. In contrast, Kite also does some action. Then, Lion raised his surprise once again.

"Huh? Meaning? These guys!

On his display, he was the ambush of Kite, whose troop count was labeled 100, but in fact he had placed many magic guides, making them look more than triple. He tried to persuade me to attack the pawn of Kate, who was attacking the fort, but the pawn I had grasped from the beginning that it was a "is hard to persuade, and the prospect is off.

"Wow! That's amazing, Mr. Kite!

Sirius. The son of Lion, who so named, raises a voice of surprise and praise when he sees his father baffled by kite. Lion was one of the best in the continent in this game. For a son to know that, Kite's skill in perplexing his father was something worthy of respect. Besides, Kate smiles and bows her head.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"And you're going to lose?

Meanwhile, Lion laughs at the words of his daughter Freya, who made her sit on her lap, all right. The battle has just begun. I haven't even gotten into the story I was going to make as a lion or in the middle of the game. This level of salvation was unworkable for him.

"What, because of this?"

He strokes his daughter's head and tells her something.

"... ho"

Seeing the actions done, Kate smiles just a little. It is a grin close to a fierce grin that cannot be shown in front of the royal nobility. Lyon, who sees it, smiles the same little bit.

Thereafter, the two will give instructions at a rate that will not be given so early as arrows even on the actual battlefield. It was, after all, Rion's procedure that stopped it.

"... the fort, empty?

Lyon learns from reports of pawns who let him infiltrate that the fortress he attacked is empty. So I look at the root of my eyebrows and think about it. I suspected ambushes and traps.

Sirius observed the serious face of such a rarely seen father, from the side of Kate - who apparently was liked - that Freya was on her knees, enjoying herself. It should be noted that Slay looked forward to seeing how such a family was doing.

"Shit. Unbelievable, accompany the engineers to the infiltration"

"... move infantry to 5-I"

"... empty. No traps... take Fort 3-D with the offensive force... success"

"Empty Castle Meter Activated. Use 3-C, 3-E, 4-D ambushes and attack the Fort"

"Holy shit, an empty castle meter! Get reinforcements out of the 5-F fort! Direction 4-D!

"Use ambush to 5-D against reinforcements"

"What! Shit, I forgot the empty castle meter, but we've taken care of it."

That's how, where Lion manages to deal with all of Kate's plans, the two converse without even looking up.

"Move the Demon Leader to 3-A... That was kite"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, it is an honor to know… Move the Horse Rider to 5-C."

"One, will you take the request?

To Lion's words, Kate looks up. There was a grin on Lion's face that Kate saw. That said, if it was a job request, there was no reason to say no, so Kate decided to encourage him to go ahead.

"Is that to me personally?

"No, to the adventure club."

"Depends on what you request"

Requests from the Royal Marquis nobility can be used to foil the Adventure Department in future activities. Kite, who bounced it out immediately, decided to push ahead, assuming he couldn't take it together. Take that, look at the plate, and Lion tells you.

"It's in Artemisia, a cave of water practice... well, this guy is simply a name the locals are calling... well, gel... you know what?

"Yes, it looks similar to the aquatic Slime tribe, but a dangerous demon that dissolves and preys on the flesh of the surrounding creatures, right? Physical attacks hardly work and are demons that can only be defeated by destroying the core with attacks that reach inside spears, etc., or by freezing and crushing it. Besides, a weapon made of metal is likely to rust or corrode, so, after all, it's not a compatible opponent for those who can fight melee."

In response to Lyon's inquiry, Kate gives as much commentary as she can. Though Lion took that for granted, he laughed and nodded one and showed admiration.

"You know, I'm impressed... so, well, there are gel breeding seasons a few times a year in that hydroponic cave. This is just the breeding season. Usually, in my country, I ask adventurers to do this sweep. There's a lot of them, and for how many minutes our army isn't that strong. Well, he's not that strong. I'm sure you can do it."

This story was not his story. The weakness of the army is a fact known on this continent at the level of general common sense, and when Kate was once here, along with Lux and others as part of his charity, he sometimes sweeps the demons inside the cave. Tiers have also been added to this. It has been the norm for quite some time for an adventurer who received a request, not an army, to do it.

As a matter of fact, when the kites went, it would be awkward to move as a duke house on a boulder, all of them as adventurers on a journey. It was drawing the flow.

"Okay. When would you like it?

Kate decided that this request could be accepted in order not to drop her arm or as a thank you to her surroundings. He decides to wrap up the conversation before Lion changes his mind, thinking that he won't disagree with the adventure department face, who was able to come on a trip and feel good, because he took care of him. It's close to a kind of cleaning activity. It's a similar story, and even if it bothers you, your participation rate will be high.

"Right. Exactly, 'cause you'd be performing everywhere now... put in the rest of the day, how about in two weeks? That's why we need permission to infiltrate the cave."

"Okay...... so, what's the reward?

Exactly. This is a separate request from this gig. Therefore, Kite asked, Lion's words to it were enough to freeze Kite.

"< >"

At that moment, Kate looks at Lion's face, saying that her instructional hand stops and she doesn't know what it means. Inside, I even suspected it was sane.

Lion had a very pleasant grin about it. Kids who do not know the state of play ask Kate if she has become disadvantaged, and the only Slay who was informed of Lion's intentions is to understand that her husband set her up and observe Kate's face.

"What the hell is that?

Kate doesn't know what it means, in the face, asks, but naturally, Kate knows. No, if I did poorly, I might have known better than Lion.

Anyway, Kite wants this, and now she's got all sorts of hands on it. You can't know that. That said, the only people who know this are the upper echelons of the Duke of Kuzhada family. There's no way Lion knew this.

"Whoa, you didn't know. Forget it. So, how about a hundred big misrills? It's because of the number of people."

Seeing Kate's face like that, Lion changes the reward. At first glance, it may be taken as one of the bargaining techniques that just makes you think that the two balls of guidance ahead and them are all worth it, but they're actually different. Double balls of guidance are not originally available for purchase in at least 100 large Miss Lil silver coins. No, in the first place, it's not something you can buy, it's not something an adventurer can get.

But to Kite, he had as much information as he could give this to the reward. Therefore, his words could not be processed as bluffs. And if I could get it, he would have revealed himself, but he wanted it. A tool worth paying for is < >.

Guess what you want and want in the current situation if this one is' Kite the Brave ', and it was an action on that. It is not a product that can be handed over without roots to the Empire, so given that it has ended all roots, it was exactly a plan worthy of the name of the Prodigy.

Thus, between the two, a moment of silence arises. It was Kite who broke the silence first.

"Kukukuku...... Ah-ha-ha!

Seeing Kate laugh out loud, Lion gave the kid a smile when the prank succeeded. This reward was truly a trick he had set up and a handful of people to figure out who Kate was.

That was a brilliant success. Making me smile was inevitable. So, to him like that, Kate hit his last hand in the game and bowed his head.

"Checkmate. And here we are."

"Ah?... ah"

Seeing the movement of the last pawn that Kate instructed, Lion is stunned. One last hand of kite was the one that drove his king to pack.

"Occasionally, these abdominal arts are fun too...... but they're still not for you!

He laughs too, joining Kate and laughing. So, leaving the children behind, where they both laughed frequently, Lion asked single-handedly.

By the way, it's something they both laugh out loud, so I note what the nobles in the Great Hall are up to, but that didn't matter to both of us. Well, when I realized that one of the two was Lion, I guess there was something funny going on, and gradually everyone stopped paying attention. While the two of them were laughing, their performances changed.

"I knew it would be easier on me this way. I need to ask you something."

I've already drawn a word from Kite. I already know who Kate is, too, so this is just a confirmation.

"Are you, after all, the brave Kite?

"Yes, Your Highness"

"Oh, it doesn't have to be anything. If you're supposed to be a hero, you have to use respect."

Lion waves his hand and head against Kite's salutation. He left the empire and entered the royal family of another country, but also his son-in-law into a kingdom of national power only to the same extent as the Duke family of Kite. It was the mainstream of the empire and its protectorate that it could now be seen as equal to Kite, even though it was formerly the first prince of the empire. And Kate had it figured out, too.

"Well... Sotch is easier to do."

"... but such a boy... Huh?

I can't believe he was such a boy. Lyon is surprised that Kate's appearance has changed. My children and my wife Slay were greatly surprised.

"Who said it was a kid?

Now Kate laughs as the prank becomes the face of a successful boy. Seeing it, Sirius shouts his amazement that Kate's appearance has changed. Even the royal palace can use such a technique. The skill was worth the surprise.

"Wow!"

"Yes, Your Highness Sirius. I'm Kite the Brave."

Kate smiles happily at Sirius like that and tells Sirius. It's a polite word for Sirius because he hasn't given me permission. Inwardly reciprocal, but still royal beyond. On the surface. That's why I handled it. That said, Sirius tilts his neck at the words of such a kite.

"Huh?"

Seeing such a boy, Kate deepens her grin, but Kate told her surroundings even more.

"Tina. Tsubaki. Enough is enough. And... I'll take care of you."

Kite wasn't the only one who was here. Of course, Tina won't tolerate the foolishness of coming to this scene alone, and she will stop knowing how Lion's sexual roots are with Kuzha and Yuri. The opponent is the royal nobility. There is no zero chance of malicious measures. So the faces that were hiding revealed themselves.
