Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Episode 386: The Dark - Side/Patriarchate -

From the imperial capital of the Empire of Entesia, a few thousand kilometers to the west. Luxerion, the holy capital of the neighbouring country of Luxerion, was there. Surrounded by plains, the land is fertile. It was a very privileged land, with a large river with a loose stream a little further afield, and a large mine where abundant mineral resources were produced.

This is the kind of land you want in every country. Naturally, it was in many invasions. That said, it has also disappeared since the Mars Empire acquired the land. The capital of the Mars Empire, which once held much of the continent in its hands, was so close back in the day. The Holy Capital of the Patriarchate was originally able to serve as a base for the refugees born in the fold where the Empire collapsed.

Well, aside from that, the land was sometimes close to the capital of the Empire with a fertile earth, and it was equipped with a fairly powerful force in its flow. That's more than the Empire of Entesia could spy on during the Cold War.

Unlike the various ethnic groups of the Empire of Entesia, whose outline is therefore somewhere cluttered, there was a huge building in the centre in a pure Western-style city. Make it a cathedral that served Luxerion, their god of devotion, where the pope lived, their total head, was.

This is a story in one of those rooms. The room also housed the top archbishops and cardinals in the country of Luxerion, as well as the heads of the Knights and their dignitaries.

"... oh, you look unexpectedly lightly let down. He became a leading candidate, so I thought I'd stick with him a little bit more..."

A young priestly clothed man who receives a report crushes even as he looks surprised. but his people turned back on the boulder for this.

"That's what I knew... what are you talking about, Archbishop of Life"

"In the first place, that purifying action over there doesn't know this 300 year decay. Everyone knows it's useless where you hit your hand in it. And you just said it wouldn't hurt if you hit it. Didn't you say no in the first place?"

"Haha...... right. No, acting smells like my bad. I'm sorry."

To the voices of his companions, a man called Archbishop of Life apologizes with a bitter smile. I mean, I was just looking surprised. I wasn't surprised by this either. That's how Life, still smiling bitterly, asks one of his peers.

"Erm... so, Archbishop Rebe. Can you tell me what happened after that?

"Oh man...... Heinrich on the case is currently under interrogation. Well, no matter how you scratch, you can't hit this one, so there's no problem. I even let him cover up."

The female bishop, called Rebbe, speaks of the aftermath, even as she is frightened by the trajectory modification to say that it is a distraction from the topic of life. Heinrich. Needless to say, he was one of the emperor's princes.

"Not so bad, but I did."

"I guess that was just being swam in the first place, too"

Another archbishop turns back again to the life he told in the same acting tone. The Archbishops, the Cardinals, and the Chiefs of the Knights of all kinds also deserve to believe in the pure faith and the high wisdom of this man called Life, but only this frigid place was not worthy of trust.

That said, this is his vegan. He seems to be aware of it, too, but he never sees any signs of curing it. Or maybe you're not even trying to cure it.

That's why there was no way to get a scratch on his statement. Otherwise, the conversation will not proceed normally.

"Haha...... plant voter ideas in Heinrich and cause corruption from within. Not a bad hand, I thought..."

"For that, let's admit it. But I knew from the beginning that it wouldn't work for the royal family. It would not be a loss just to try, it is good to know... I guess I didn't lose my legs because the nobleman who is lucky enough to buy and sell slaves has gone around the back..."

Even then, the other Archbishops complained about the life that was close to the lead of this plan, but there was no prospect that it was working at all.

Well, everyone - including life - had their failures woven in. Nobody is seriously reprimanding you that far. I reprimanded him as a matter of form, to that extent. It was done with only life gestures about personnel, and the loss is zero. Originally, no one was willing to ride, so it didn't matter.

You can tell by what they say, but Heinrich's electorate thought was what they planted that bud on. Originally, there was a slight sense of inferiority in him as Shea read it. They just manipulated it a little bit. It was only a little bit better, so even Shea and the others couldn't tell it was their ruse.

"... that's good enough. The ploy was cleared by Non... any further reprimand would be reprimand against Non... stop around."

It is a one-off reprimand for the life that followed, but it also echoes an old voice in a few places. It was emanating from a man who sat in the seat where the noblest man on the spot sat.

"... I understand, under the Pope"

"Thank you, Pope."

He was one of the Cardinals who was reprimanding him, but by the voice of the Pope's crane, he holds the spear. Well, for once, it was a reprimand of all shapes. He came in to stop me from wasting my time. Therefore, one of the Cardinals also withdraws his reprimand and Life bows his head to the Pope.

Where such reprimands came to an end by a word of the Pope, I noticed a boy whose life fumbled and who looked unhappy in a certain corner.

"Your son in the Weisslitter family is probably unhappy, isn't he?

"... nothing"

In the words of life, the boy wearing the knight's armor is not dissatisfied. But the face was so discontentented that I could only see the emotion from anyone. On such a boy's face, a man with a similar atmosphere beside him smiled bitterly and bowed his head.

"I'm sorry, my Archbishop. He's still young for minutes. Forgive me, young man, for not knowing what is important in the battle of martial arts."

"No, I know you do. He's a boy without a bend."

To an apology from a man, Life shook his head with a smile. It was certainly something that included gain as archbishop, a merciful thing.

"No, I'm sorry for overlapping. I was a little angry when I heard about the upside of the game in front of the country."

"Haha. I have no choice. That said, apart from the imperial Weisslitter family and your Weisslitter family. Nothing to worry about."

To a man's words, life laughs and gives forgiveness. The Weisslitter family of the Empire. Needless to say, that's Al's home.

And they're also, the Weisslitters. In other words, it was the home of Al's ancestor, Lux Weisslitter, a fellow of Kate's. In other words, they were the blood of Lux's brother. What seemed to me was that there was no way to do it.

By the way, that's why the man is the current head of the Weisslitter family, and the boy is the child, that is, the next head. They belong to the Knights Together, and the Lord is their Knights Leader. That's why they were both at this meeting.

"Daimyo, Rufaus, you think it's for knights to decide to fight head-on, and you shouldn't do this kind of trick."

"... eh"

"You're right, Lou"

When he was told what he thought, a boy called Rufaus looked at him only for a moment. Exactly, you were right. Thus, against Rufaus so much, Life laughed bitterly.

"A similar face, because it's an inconvenient object... you don't have to worry about it. You are our treasure knight. Because it's the next generation of white knights."

"Nothing like that..."

I don't care extraordinarily, Rufaus said, but my face was rare no matter how I looked at it. That said, there's no choice in this either. Life is right, his face looks just like Al's.

Speaking of differences, the color of the hair and the color of the eyes, maybe. As for his face, he looked so much like a twin or something. Well, there was also a slight nervous feeling about the personality aspect at the end of the day, and it wasn't so much that I couldn't tell. While smiling bitterly at Rufaus like that, Life decided to put the story back together.

"Well... straight forward, Rufaus, you've decided to look forward to the future... so let's go back to every meeting."

"Oh man..."

I thought if it didn't matter, don't do it, but it's also true that he's good at these backwards things. Plus, if it goes well, it's profitable. It was also true that there was no harm in doing so. We shall therefore amend the agenda in response to Life's recommendations, even though we are frightened.

"How about each Knights? What about the demon crusade and the internal security situation?

"The White Knights are fine. We are not currently neglecting to train. We're not receiving any reinforcements from anywhere right now."

"The Red Knight has no problems either. Currently, the Empire remains in a state of well-being as ordered."

"The Golden Knights are equally fine. As for the demons reported earlier, the White Knights have backed up, and the crusade is over."

"There's a little problem with the Blue Knights."

"Well, something."

In response to the words of a woman in armor wearing a blue coat, the Cardinals urge first. With that in mind, I showed one footage on the monitor provided for the room. That was a picture of a village that was apparently raided.

"This is footage from the northern part of the Patriarchate. Bandits have been active lately, causing some damage to local residents. Fortunately, our intervention was quick. We have not yet received reports that someone has been abducted, killed, but there has been some damage to food, etc. This is an unforeseeable situation. It's possible they've created a base somewhere."

"Hmm...... Ludwig, head of the White Knights. Can you send reinforcements from the White Knights?

"Let's see."

In response to words from one of the archbishops, an emperor named Ludwig nods. The White Knights, led by them, play is their job. If there was a request for reinforcement, it would have been rushed immediately.

Incidentally, the Blue Knights presided over policing, the Red Knights fought the outside world, and the Golden Knights were in charge of protecting the priests from the side. Each Knights is color-coded with a coat, and if Ludwig and the White Knights, a white coat. If it had been the Blue Knights earlier, it would have been a blue coat.

The most common personnel are the Red Knights, followed by the Blue Knights. White and gold are both mottled to quality over quantity, so the number is not that high.

Together with these four knights, the Knights of the Seal, reporting directly to the Pope, were called the Knights of Luxerion in the State of Luxerion, and the head of the Order of the Holy Knights. Incidentally, he is the head of his Order of the Holy Knights, but he is not present because he is on an expedition at this meeting.

He apparently preferred to run around the realm, and was more on an expedition, even though he was in a high position. Well, the civilians are in good order, so we haven't had a problem.

"... Now we finish the meeting. Bless the Holy God Luxerion..."

"Bless the Holy God, Luxerion."

After some time of the meeting, even after the reports of the Knights, the meeting ends with the name of God and the prayer to which all are dedicated to coincide with the pronunciation of the Pope's closing. but there are those who have remained after that. Life. The Pope ordered me to stay.

"... there's damage on the north side... let's deal with it"

"Yes, I did. A little too much money."

"Hold the reins... there is no need to cause harm to the people..."

"I know. All those thieves will use them, if they bite their hands, until they are cut off."

"Then it's good"

In the words of life, the Pope nods. Actually, about the slave trade, too, it was their fault. This one was quite serious, but because Jake, Lord Heisenberg, was moving secretly, he failed without being able to detect it.

Well, it is also significant that a nobleman who was unluckily and secretly engaged in the slave trade has turned to Heinrich's endorsement. It hurt that the Heisenberg family and Shea < > moved quite seriously with a combination of voter thought and slave trading moves.

I suspected Heinrich was involved. In fact, we were supposed to use Heinrich as pseudo-bait to trade slaves from another route, and even lose a leading aristocrat in a do-it-yourself attempt to cause the empire to lose its composure, but something went crazy together.

Therefore, this time it was discovered before it reached there because of Heinrich, and the operation was daringly crushed. I couldn't read this. It's their fault. In that way, in the conference room, where no one is present, even after the meeting, the two of us alone discuss a strategy that is secretly underway.

"Okay, I'll take care of it later"

It's all yours, my love.

Thus, the two countries of the Cold War scratched each other's backs, so today they will continue to fight secretly.
