Skeleton Knight, in Another World

The moment I thought the view in front of me was dimmed and I felt just a little floating in my body, the scenery that was indoors until earlier changed and collapsed in front of me to become a wreck, there was the appearance of the South Street Gate in Soulia, the king's capital.

The sun leans much, and the sun, which is likely to touch the mountain ranges stretching west, is changing the color of the sky to warm.

"Oh, this is the king's capital of the Northern kingdom I heard about. But you did it flashy..."

Dylan admires the power of metastatic magic, yet looks over the burnt earth stained with evening colors that stretch around the South Street Gate and the remnants of armor left behind by countless immortal (undead) soldiers rolling around.

There were claw marks that became heavenly knights and stormed around with "The Angel of the Origin (Mikael)".

However, a number of figures moved around in what became such a burning field.

If you look closely, they seemed to go around collecting the remnants of the burnt armor and weapons in the cage they carried on their backs, and inside they were seen not only of the people, but also of the Beastmen.

Perhaps they will crush the wreckage and process and use it for weapons and tools again.

If you look at it, you can also see many repairmen on the city wall by the south gate, and in the collapsed area, there was a barrier for the prevention of intrusion put together with wood and stone breakage.

As you look at it, you can see that it's slowly starting to move towards rebuilding the city.

"Hmm, you're a success."

"Right."

Ariane also hammers back at her feelings like that.

"Well, first I was looking for you, Chiyome, while saying hello to the king here?

When Dylan finishes seeing the view around the street, he puts his hand on his waist and looks up to Soulia, the king's capital.

Myself and Arian nodded at it and turned to the South Street Gate, which was being pursued for restoration work.

There were several people near the South Street Gate who knew about themselves and were allowed to enter the Wang Dynasty. Perhaps this HR is King Asparv's plan.

In addition, it appeared that Chiyome was helping to hunt for the remnants of the undead (undead) who remained throughout the city, and people told me to thank her from rubber soldiers and guards.

"I was a little worried, but you look fine"

Upon hearing her work like that, Arian was stroking her big chest down a bit.

Dylan smiles somewhat ill-willed when she hears Arian say that.

"She's quite an adult, hey, 'cause she's not gonna magically crush the gatekeeper like someone else"

Arian's shoulder trembled at Dylan's words, shifting her face in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

Will it settle down to the conclusion that it is crucial not to offend either of us for now?

When I was thinking about that, there was a black-crushed girl standing in the street in front of me.

The girl with cat ears on her sneak outfit, shaking her long black tail and walking without sound is definitely a chiyome.

When Chiyome admits to Dylan's appearance here, he responds by meeting him a little smaller.

"Chiyome, what are you doing here?

Asking Chiyome like that what Ariane was doing, she moved her cat ear over her head patterned and pulled out just a little short knife over her hips to show it.

"I was hunting for the remnants of the immortals (undead) throughout the city. If you can fight among your liberated brethren, you're in this sweep, because we have a good nose."

Chiyome said so and moved his nose slightly to show it, but did he inhale the dust or did he shave it small and rinse his nose.

"By the way, is Lord Arian or Lord Ark safe?

I got my mind back. She's pointing that question at me, but myself and Arian get a subtle vibe looking at each other.

"Well, it's not all going well, but it's generally moving in the right direction, I think."

"Really? Where are we going next?

He was a chiyome who tilted his neck at the subtle rhetoric on this one, but he changes the subject and asks about his plans for the future.

Dylan answered the question.

"I guess I'll start by meeting the king in this country and sharing a little information."

"Really? Let's hurry."

As Chiyome's urging rushes me, a line that includes myself aspires to the royal castle, the heart of the king's capital.

"Oh, so the soldiers of the city thanked Lord Chiyome? He's been active in the undead hunt for a long time."

Speaking to Chiyome earlier on the way over, she turns her back, saying only one word after blinking her pale eyes: "Really..."

Such a shake in her tail was somewhat wider than earlier.

Eventually, the guards dived through the castle gate of the royal castle, and as soon as they caught the nearby guard and asked him for guidance and sight, permission was granted, and he was passed into the back room of the castle.

As then, King Asparf and neighboring Uncle Blanier were in their seats in the room that was put through, waiting for this report with such expressions as now procrastination.

And King Asparf, who acknowledged the appearance of an elf tribe on his face that he and Arian would not otherwise see, spoke to his unfamiliar elf tribe - Dylan.

"What about you?

"I am the elder inside Laratoia in the Great Forest of Canada, who calls me Dylan Targ Laratoia. Later, get to know each other."

Dylan answered that and bowed his head in slow motion.

Two of his namesakes are slightly foreshadowed by King Asparf and Uncle Blanier.

I introduced him as an elder in the Canadian Great Forest, so I guess he thought he'd have a quick talk about reinforcements.

But Dylan guessed it or shook his head and hung words to correct his perception.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not in the position of being a representative of the troops sent to the Luang Forest this time, so it's not like the kind of reinforcements from the center that the three of us here said they would request"

No two powerful men hid their disappointment in Dylan's words, leaving their bodies behind their chairs.

With a smile on his face like that between the two of them, he then speaks words of hope.

"But the center will not abandon the Luan Forest like this, and most of its Luan Forest, the Dorants, chose to fight with the people in this battle."

The eyes of King Asparf and the Blanier border uncle are opened, quietly looking back at Dylan.

In a quiet room, someone's throat rang.

"All I have to do is head out to the center and manage to pull the power from the center,"

The rulers of the two tribes rejoiced at him for saying so and gently meeting hands.

"Oh well. Can you still not give up hope..."

King Asparf reveals such a mood with a voice as if he had no hegemony in his voice.

When he came in, he could not immediately notice, but his face had an atmosphere that was somewhere shaky, and Uncle Blanier, who was present, looked at the king with a worrying look.

Is something wrong?

One of the guards rushed into the room, annoyed by the footsteps, where he was questioning himself.

As a state emergency, I guess it always opens a window for reporting.

But when he saw such a guard, King Asparf promptly took care of him with a bitter face, prompting him to report quickly where the guards who had acknowledged their appearance had hesitated to report.

"Ha, excuse me! Earlier, a" bird ”arrived from someone who was sneaking into the King's Capital in Delfrent!" Wang du, mysterious anodized kettle ni ravaged saletsu Ari, fall mono time no problem. Countless enemies'!

Everyone who was there expressed dismay at the content of the report read out.

Indeed, was the Kingdom of Delfrent a country on the north side of the Kingdom of Northern -

─ ─ There, sure,

"Lord Chiyome, speaking of Delfrent, I think Goemon and the others were on their way?

Ariane and Dylan's gaze turns to nature and Chiyome for their inquiry.

She moves her cat ear slightly, especially when she nods without changing her expression, and the ponta watching it is in tune.

"I haven't received any news from you. I can't say much because I don't know where the King's capital is, but I wonder if the Goemons wouldn't notice if an army of immortals (undead) the same size as here..."

But even if it's all right with you, the situation in the Kingdom of Northern... the army of monsters attacking the King's Capital of the North and the South, when they invade, this country could be sandwiched.

King Asparf exhales a heavy sigh on the spot as he lets his guards hang the words of his labor and lower him.

The same is true of Uncle Blanier, whose fatigue is obvious despite his harsh face.

I guess they both don't usually show much upset or anything to others as someone who stands up, but maybe it's also hard to get inside when you come here.

It was Dylan who always started talking without breaking down in the midst of such a harsh air dominating.

"You've had a little trouble with this. I told them I was pulling my strength from Canada, but as you know, the Elves are not as numerous as the people. If you're going to beat it for sure, you need to concentrate on one side, but do you know how far it is from the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Salma to this King's Capital, Soulia?

To Dylan's inquiry, King Asparf raised his face and roared with a frown root.

"Mm, sure, it should take more than ten days on the horse's feet..."

Dylan, who nodded once at the answer, now asks about the distance from the King's capital of the Kingdom of Delfrent.

"Mmm, I don't know the details, but I think it was more or less like seven or eight days"

In response to King Asparf's answer, Dylan turns his gaze to Chirali and the Blanier border uncle beside him.

"So what is the distance from the King's capital of the Kingdom of Salma to the territory of Branier?

"About seven days on the horse's feet, six days if you just cross the border."

You already knew what would be asked, and Uncle Blanier answered Dylan's question without worrying.

But considering the two answers,

"It depends on where the two armies are going, but the invasion will overlap almost at the same time."

When Ariane zeroed into the sighing mix, I felt the air on the spot heave.

"Nevertheless, was the Hilk nation invading the three countries at the same time? I wonder how many immortal (undead) soldiers you hold... if you add up the number you destroyed in the Kingdom of Delfrent and the Kingdom of Northern and the number you would have placed in your own country, you will not lose half a million."

In order to grasp the current situation for the time being, I say the prediction of the opponent's number of battles, but that seemed to be just an act of sticking to an increasingly harsh reality.

Both King Asparf and the Blanier border uncle lay their gaze down and shook their shoulders.

"In the meantime, it's hard to concentrate on one side at a time when the speed of both progressions is unknown. There is no guarantee that the great army of the undead will be headed straight here, and the time of arrival will change considerably if they attack other cities. After all, we just need a little more power..."

Dylan muttered his analysis of the status quo like a soliloquy for a while at an unchanged pace, then raised his gaze after realizing that the scene was quiet.

So the gaze of King Asparf and Dylan finally crosses his face.

The king's stopped thought began to move into Dylan's gaze asking him something.

"Oh, oh, the power of war. One of my sons, Terva, should be returning soon with a private soldier of domestic nobility. And then... if you can count on Lord Ark's help, if you ask the Kingdom of Rhoden to come from my country, you may expect some reinforcements."

It is true that the Kingdom of Lauden and this Northern Kingdom seem to have exchanges such as transactions across the Gulf of Burgo, but will they send reinforcements to neighbouring countries beyond the sea, albeit the Gulf, just to do so?

Arian exchanges his gaze and shakes his head with the same face to see if his question was on his face.

Chiyome had nothing to do with this one, he noticed something, he was pointing his cat ear outside the room.

I move my face to know what that means, but there my gaze returns to him to the circumstances King Asparv talks about.

"Melissa, the queen of the present king of the Kingdom of Rhoden, is my sister. Melissa is already in the other world, but Princess Juliana over there will be my niece. I'll make it convenient for you with that friendship."

I was surprised not least by the King's words, but at the same time didn't feel like I was forgetting something.

─ Well, what was it?

"Kiyun?

The ponta above my head also rings in a strange voice in tune with such a question of this side.

For now, the question in the corner of my memory is, if I leave it at this time, who will be the messenger to seek reinforcements from the Kingdom of Rhoden?

If the royal family of the kingdoms of Northern and Rhoden are related and rely on it to send messengers, would it still be reasonable for the royal family here?

That also occurred to Dylan, lightly striking his hand and asking King Asparf who he would be running for.

"Is it still normal, in this case, to send a messenger to the Kingdom of Rhoden to turn the royal family relative over there? I also met with the other people a while ago, so we can make some bridges with the Apostle, right?

In response to that question, King Asparf made a tannic surface and shut his mouth for a while, then slightly,

"Now only Lil can be put up for that candidate..."

That's all he said in a heavy tone.

From that tone of his, he seemed reluctant to turn Princess Lil to the messenger.

At his age, it's ten or so girls, and I don't think he has a choice.

Princess Lil is definitely solid, but I thought at that time that she might want to give her a break as a parent, taking on a lot of heavy responsibilities until she got here from Count Din territory.

But there was one person poking at that king's consideration, and he jumped indoors with momentum opening the door.

"Accept the role of our messenger!

To the voice of the young girl, everyone's gaze heads to the entrance of the room at once.

There Princess Lil, with her eyes red and swollen, wiped tears accumulated in her cuffs but persevered, was about to appeal to her father, King Asparf, who was in his seat.

I look at her as though she were nothing more than a snooze at Chiyome, who had stayed in the king's capital.

But Chiyome, who noticed his gaze on this side, responded by shaking his head small.

So is that, because she was running around the new town of Wang Du while we were out.

"Lil, I thought I told you to rest for a while..."

As the father of one daughter rather than the king's, he speaks out to worry about her.

But she shook her head beside it, and now, once, she asked King Asparf about the messenger.

"Even for Brother Seval! If there's anything I can do to help, I want to help this country stay tomorrow! Brother Seval will cry and regret, to make such a country..."

Speaking of which, she wiped tears again and again with her heavy, damp cuffs, desperately trying to stop it.

Another person showed up on the spot to hear her whimper like that.

The person, who came in graciously at the entrance, kneeling beside Princess Lille, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief removed from her nostrils, turned to King Asparf and bowed his head deeply on the spot.

"I'm sorry. I looked away for a moment, and they left my room."

Words hung to block her apology where Nina, one of Princess Lille's escort knights, was speaking out of apology to King Asparv.

"Lil, the Kingdom of Rhoden I'm sending to the messenger is far east of here. The story of this messenger belongs to Lord Ark."

"I'd be good, wouldn't I?

King Asparf said it all the way down the road and guessed what he was going to say, expressing his own opinion so that it could be covered in his words.

A gaze that asks something of everyone concentrates on this one, but I answer it with my chest up.

"As long as we send Lord Lil as a messenger to the Kingdom of Rhoden, I will undertake. If we finally get reinforcements, we'll take care of that reinforcement's transport to this point."

"Ki-yun!

To his proclamation, the ponta above his head also rings with his chest stretched.

"Oh, is that true? Lord Ark."

King Asparf raised his gaze as he stared at Lil and glared up at this side.

"If you've come this far, I'm willing to spare you all my help."

Now if you raise one arm and take a trick to make a force kobu and show it, the ponta over your head also starts to shake your tail for some reason.

Princess Lil, who was looking up to one such person and one, wiped her tears and smiled small.

King Asparf also solidified his resolve when he saw her like that, and when he took his seat and lowered his hips in front of her, he talked to him, trying to comb his hair with his hands, which was jumping a little.

"Then it will be already sunset today, so Lil should get ready for tomorrow and rest early. I will prepare my writ to the Kingdom of Rhoden by the end of the night. And..."

Speaking graciously, he stopped his hand combing Princess Lil's hair, slowly removing from his nostalgia one necklace with grasshopper elaborate decorations.

Where Princess Lille had a slight eye, King Asparf looked away and smiled as he hung the necklace around her.

"Father, what about this necklace?

Princess Lil asks her father, the King, after looking at the necklace wonderfully.

"It's the same ornament I sent her when your aunt Melissa married her to the Kingdom of Rhoden. Take it instead of an amulet..."

To King Asparf's answer, Princess Lille thanked him after blinking her grey eyes.

"Thank you, Father"

"Nina, Lil, please"

Having shifted her gaze from her like that, the king entrusted her to Nina, the escort knight who had refrained beside her, and she urged Princess Lille to go outside the room in a deep grace.

"Princess Lil, let's go back to your room and get ready for tomorrow."

She was Nina chasing Princess Lil's back, who was prompted to leave the room, but along the way Chiyome and her gaze meet and her legs stop on the spot.

I thought it was a one-touch atmosphere like before, but I don't think so.

When Nina made a small meeting towards Chiyome after a while, she hung up words of apology about the other day.

"Lord Chiyome, I apologize for making you uncomfortable with my inadvertent remarks the other day. I have a handicap here, so I'll let you look at my apology again later."

That said, when Nina lowered her head small again, Chiyome slipped away from her gaze and returned vegan.

"Nothing......, I don't care anymore"

"... right"

She was a slightly discouraged Nina, but smiled slightly at her mouth when she saw that the cat ear on Chiyome's head pointing that way was poised to peep at her.

"Ri, are you sure you don't want to stay beside Lord Lil? You'll be in a cage again."

Chiyome, who somehow felt his gaze on the back of his head, said so uncomfortably and waved his tail, now Nina stuffed the words "ugh" and held his chest.

"... So, I'm in this. Thank you, Lord Chiyome."

Nina, who managed to get back on her feet, put that down small as she left under Chiyome and went after the little Lord's back, who had headed to the room first.

Chiyome was doing her gaze near the entrance to the room where she left like that, but eventually she turned her gaze back and exhaled a small sigh.

Apparently, one element of anxiety on tomorrow's trip to the Kingdom of Rhoden is gone.

Turn your gaze toward King Asparf as you stroke your chest down to the interaction between Nina and Chiyome.

I can almost imagine what Princess Lil looked like earlier.

"Lord Asparf, about the earlier Lord Lil, but that was..."

So once he had separated the words, and watched the king sitting deeply in his seat again, he spoke of the circumstances, after much meditation.

"Around noon today, a report came from the noble realm. Before Soulia, the king's capital, was surrounded by immortal (undead) armies, his two sons, the second of them Seval, sent out as messengers to recruit reinforcements to lords everywhere, fell into a monster raid that appeared as a chaser."

King Asparf tells the story in a slow tone, suppressing his emotions, before closing his eyelids.

I had some anticipation of Princess Lille's attitude when she showed up in this room and her words and actions.

That seemed to be the same for Arian and Chiyome, both of whom had their gaze on Princess Lille to the door where she left.

The Uncle Blanier, who was present and listening, already knew, without particular surprise, that he was just quietly listening to King Asparf.

I'm saddened to hear that one of my brothers is dead, but still, the strength of her will to take the initiative to defend the country she tried to save won't be something she can have inside, even if she's not her age.

One way or another, the weak-willed self is the thought that struck her in the chest by such a triumph.

"Tomorrow we have to keep our heads tight..."

Is Ponta in a good mood, too, any time there is more and the tail of the cotton wool is swollen.

Ariane opens her mouth to herself with some powerful glance in this direction.

"Don't be too temperamental and empty in extra directions."

I nod small and return to that one word of hers.

I felt like the song (kasa) of the hairy balls above my head had become smaller without my heart.
