Sword of the Philosopher

After the break, we'll have a discussion in the same room.

"As it stands, the wise man is on the same path as he saw in the future... By telling Princess Emena everything, things are definitely going in a delicious direction. And the King knows what's going on and wants to talk to us."

"However, the Royal Palace is currently in a state of chaos and cannot be approached at the present time."

Sofia's recommendations. I agree.

"So, until we have a discussion with the King, we are in the process of researching the Star God. We were fortunate enough to get valuable information from ancient figures. Proceed with the work on that basis... there is time for six months, but it is better to do it as soon as possible. Therefore, I will do everything I can to use remote magic."

"I promise to cooperate on that."

Lord Forna made it clear.

"If you need supplies, tell me. Oh, don't worry about the money. I'm at a turning point in history... that fact alone is enough reason for me to move."

"I'll thank you anyway."

Ah.

That's all I can answer to my words. I know who we are, and I thought we were gonna hang out till the end.

"Now, the stage of studying the Star God is already passing out and gathering information... If you dare to say so, we need to get the information on the Star God held by the Royal Palace, but here's one problem."

Back organization, huh?

Sofia's words again. I was nodding.

"Nevertheless, I don't know if there really is such a thing... if you do something while researching the star gods."

There is Ella, the head of Spirit Whisper, in this room. However, he is only the leader of one herd, and Whisp forms other herds and builds his own community. One of them is in contact with humans.

"Forna, I don't care if you look at me personally... do you think there's anything behind this?

"Let me give you the opinion of an ant."

"On what grounds?

"The evidence is fragile, but I am uncomfortable with the progress of the study of the Star God. It is easy to understand if the Spirit Whisp is translated, but in the first place, it remains doubtful why Whisp was involved. It's too coincidental, but...."

And she scratched her head,

"It is easiest to understand that we formed a project team because we simply discovered the ruins, and I think it is more appropriate to do so. Ruins were originally surveyed in this country. Some scholars may have had an affair with Spirit Whisper. I worked with Whisp to discover a massive ruin... which is the most convincing story..."

"You don't think so?

"Ruins, Spirits, Technologies... If we combine that information, it seems that technology development will be much faster even if it is good for the Ruins Survey. There is a base of ancient technology, and applying it... it seems impossible without someone familiar with ancient technology."

"I can explain that there was someone familiar with the scholar, but...."

We, um, start roaring. I feel uncomfortable. Nevertheless, it's just a little bit. It is not strange that the product was accidental when I opened the lid.

"I wonder if we can be very vigilant and restrict our movements... even if we observe it with a magician, it's impossible to capture it."

"Can't you expect information from the princess?

"I'm telling you, there may be such an organization, but if Princess Emena is smart, she'll think it's not a good idea to go after her, and it's not too bad to expect much."

"... if we can talk to the King, things are going to get better."

Words from Lise. Yeah, that's for sure.

"First of all, do you want to act cautiously until you have a discussion with the King... well, the Stargod measures we're going to take are basically of the type that we're going to do. I don't know how far we'll go... I don't know when it's time to talk, but if it's not that far away, it'll be a fight until we get back to you."

"I wonder if the nights I can't sleep will continue."

Kati says. I'm not going to say that I can work around the clock, but it's going to be a lot of work... and it's going to be late at night.

"What would you do if you had an undercover organization?

Questions from Sofia. I have an idea about that.

"I can't say without knowing the purpose of the opponent... if the purpose is to bring down the star gods, we have to defeat them."

"... if that's the case, why is it like that..."

"I don't know. But there is no wonder that there is a religion that worships God of Destruction, and that there is a huge force that existed in the past… even if there are forces that believe in it."

I talk with my shoulders shrugged. [M]

"At the very least, if it is established that this series of disturbances involves an underground organization, its effects will extend to the royal family... and cannot be left unattended, let alone harmful to the Holy Kingdom of Rebate. It's hard to say that it's an organization approved by the state."

My friends nod to my words at once... I wonder if we've decided on a policy for now.

"Therefore, we will now take measures against the star gods at a rapid pitch. If I had a chance to talk to the King, I'd deal with Sophia and Lise. We have to work with the national side to move the core organization, and be careful when working outside."

If our enemies hadn't revealed our presence, we could have done so much… The problem is that when they found out, it would make a big difference to the story.

I just don't want to break this any more than it has done so well... Rather, if our presence is perceived, the movement of the other party can become radical.

"Anyway, be vigilant not to expose it with the others."

"I see. And one more thing."

And Sofia goes further.

"About Prince Livina....."

"Ah, about that... let me tell you what I think when I talk to the King."

However, given the disease, I thought it wouldn't be the shape I had originally imagined... but it would be overshadowed in an unexpected way.
