(8) Ruins Talk and Diplomats
The Sigels who took the story of the ancient ruins were guided to a place for visitors used by the department overseeing the academia.
It's not isolated as a room either, it's just separated by partitions (like).
That alone is likely to tell what the story of the ruins will be like, but the Sigels never put their grievances on their faces.
Rather, to the extent that I thought it would be something like that.
It is stranger to see the head of a country all of a sudden.
No matter how brave Philomena is, there are no powerful demons out there that rock the country, so the emperor doesn't even have to deal with it.
Speaking of ruins in the first place, there are circumstances behind the fact that the department that deals with ruins doesn't have that many fine rooms because it treats them close to idleness, unlike the department that divides the school.
As a result, it was a response in a place unlikely to welcome a brave party.
Most importantly, for the Philomenas, I don't care about the room where we talk.
Instead, he even thought it would be easier without the weird nobles.
By the way, the emperor did not know that the department in charge of the ruins in the academic department was being treated like this, and that the Philomenas were in such a room (?) I don't even know they let me through.
Rather than, the emperor's proximity didn't know the circumstances that much either.
Demonic artifacts found in ancient monuments are important to the country, but the focus is more on excavators than on research, so more effort is being put into developing adventurers.
Anyway, the Sigels, who had been put through to such a room, were proceeding with a pale conversation.
Those who were introduced as reps also said that policy as a country was not suddenly decided from the outset, and the Philomenas acknowledged that.
Even that Horstat kingdom took days to make up its mind, so this response in the empire is not strange either.
In addition, the person in charge was getting used to talking about how many similar stories he had received.
All in all, the person in charge seemed to have a very good perception, and the Philomenas were able to talk without any kind of separation.
"- We therefore believe that the history of this world did not just destroy a single great civilization, but that there were at least two or more civilizations"
"I see. If you do have clear evidence of that ship, it's hard to deny it."
That's what the rep replied to Philomena's explanation with several nods.
"However, I would like to admit it right away in my mood, but it still takes time to admit it as an organization..."
"I guess that is. We're not going to tell you to admit anything either."
The person in charge who heard Philomena's answer was breathing as if he was relieved.
I thought only the brave men facing each other would say such impossibilities, so they pulled me off lightly and reassured me.
It was Filomena who was smiling inside when she saw the attitude of the rep, but she didn't do anything to put that on her face.
"That's all we claim, but is there anything else you'd like to hear?
When Philomena heard that, the rep asked a few questions.
Exactly, only specialist department personnel, and the questions were all precise.
In this sense, it can be said that it was much more fulfilling than the exchange between the glances of Holstadt.
As a result, this discussion has been fruitful for Philomena and the others.
Finally, the rep told me to close the story so far.
"That concludes the question.... Oh, yeah. How do you make the results known? If you wish to see me, I will mail you a letter informing you of the day?
"Oh, it wouldn't even be like meeting and talking, would it? If you can do it by mail, you can do it by mail alone."
"Really? Well, the rest is how you judge it up there, so I can't say anything... but anyway, I'm going to mail it if you need anything"
"I'd appreciate it if you would."
It's visible that we're going to be flying around, so it's possible that we won't be able to see it right away when it's mailed.
It's just that that's why letting them know in the mail is also the surest way.
The last time I checked how to contact him, my discussions with that representative were over.
But when I exchanged hands with the rep and left the room separated by a partition, there was a slight problem.
"Hey, why are you here...!?
A man's surprised voice echoed the department in charge of the ruins.
All those who were in the room paid attention to the reaction of the man.
Seeing Sigel speak louder, in the back of the room, one man in a flashy costume was surprised to see Laura.
Of course, Sigel has never met or seen him, so he has no idea who the man is.
That was the same for the three Filomena, Michaela and Marina, who were turning their gaze towards Laura.
Then, the person (Laura) nodded after making a slightly contemplative face.
"Surely you were a diplomat in the country before."
Even when it came to unfriendly countries, places like consulates were placed in the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Horstadt.
As a consulate, Laura remembered that she had been introduced before.
Of course, Laura doesn't remember all the diplomats.
It's just that diplomats from countries close to their enemies were in the corner of their memory.
The man approached Laura, smiling without even giving her a bite about it, in a panic.
"No way, I'm sorry I didn't expect you to be here. So what brings you to our country with Lord Philomena?
Exactly, there was only a diplomat, and even without being introduced, the man was properly aware of Philomena.
Filomena didn't have any memories of me face-to-face, but I was wondering if she had seen me during a glance or something.
I'm not going to let the Philomenas pinch their mouths here.
It can be taken for granted that this will happen because the other person also deals with Laura as "the princess of the neighbouring country".
"Aren't you listening to Philomena's story about ancient civilization? I'm here to talk about it."
"Oh, is it the princess herself?
To that statement by the diplomat, the personnel in charge of the ruins have looked at Laura with surprise.
At the time of the introduction, Laura did not name herself the princess of Holstat.
Because I didn't do it, I almost couldn't achieve the purpose of letting you know I was acting with Sigel, but I was heartily happy that I was going to manage thanks to a diplomat.
The diplomat's man was twisting his neck as he said so.
The diplomat had doubts in two ways.
One is why the princess is moving herself for that matter, and the other is why Princess Laura is acting with the Philomenas.
Both are unlikely with the information a diplomat has.
Laura cut out the story casually to the diplomat who was the face of doubt.
"Yes, I'm going to act with Master Siegel."
He nodded to Laura's bomb, which was subtly put out, without changing his expression, whether he should be called a boulder diplomat.
More than half of the strange faces earlier were deliberate.
By the way, the diplomat is aware of Laura's intent to name Sigel, not Philomena's on purpose.
"... I see. Do we act together?"
"Yes, Master Sigel is a very preferred person for me, who I have never met before"
"Really?"
Diplomats have also smiled back at Laura, who is smiling.
Within this short exchange, there is a variety of information in it.
For example, it is information that could be important simply to say that Princess Laura is at Siegel's disposal in the first place, and it is also important that she said that Laura is preferred for that Siegel.
In any case, the Gerrion Empire is engaged to Princess Laura.
One of them. Very important information for the Foreign Office.
On top of that, and even the idea of not being able to use the same hand against Sigel was also floating.
Because of that idea, I was able to travel to an important country called Horstat as a diplomat.
Sigel was surprised to see both of them interacting by hiding an invisible blade in his smile.
Laura, who is usually laid back, still appears on the table as a princess in these settings.
And at the same time, it was true that he thought that he would be very unable to deal with it himself.
