Sword of the Philosopher

Girl - and I was surprised to hear it. What if...

"A girl? A noble daughter?

"He's not talking about the minister's daughter missing, for example. I'm pretty sure they're searching within the Imperial City."

In response to Exon's question, Abel says: It would be just as worthless information for both of us.

"If you exist enough to look, would you be a relative of Nehmeisa"

Abel makes a guess, but Exon denies it.

"As things stand, we have no information that Nehmeisa is the mastermind of this battle. Plus, there are a lot of people who support him... I can't think of a situation where his relatives can be targeted"

"How's his political opponent?

"It's not like he doesn't have enemies, but he's even a minister rounded up. If those enemies are in the court, they should be able to be quickly broken and dealt with easily. May not be a related party"

That's it, Exon sent a gaze to Sophia.

"I also considered for a moment the possibility that I was looking for you, but it would be more different than being a girl"

"Probably."

Nodding Sophia...... here I ask Abel a question.

"When did that information come from?

"People from Imperial Capital have rushed to this town... a few days ago, something like that."

A few days ago...... the fact that we're searching means if we go to Imperial City, we can still make it?

When I heard about the girl, it occurred to me - the girl who was the last emperor's candidate. His name is Romilda-Carlatti.

Originally with high potential and the strongest of the candidates for emperor...... but only possesses the same level of competence as ordinary people at the time of accession, it is useless to let them participate in the battle.

There are several times about her that there is an awakening event, whereby her abilities rise and she becomes a force of war, but the rise is lower than the other two's degree of growth, which is really inferior. Quite a hassle to raise the level.

Plus, she has another flaw. That's less moves and magic. Abel is in the form of a move-centric, Katra remembers magic and moves in balance, but in Romilda's case he can barely master them. So what are we going to do, we're going to make them remember with items and events.

Stats eventually pulls the other two out, but the problem is that factors other than ability are pulling their legs, and using her to fight is a bit of a handful. However, it has strength commensurate with that struggle. I also remember some dedicated moves when it comes to high levels...... well, I'm sure it's a hassle to get there.

Also, I doubt it, assuming it's Romilda. The first orphanage place she is in is not in Imperial City. Why is she in the Empire City...... and why is Nehmeisa looking - no, does she have an answer for this?

In other words, Nehmeisa was defeated by her presence and returned to the past. So I'm trying to do something about her.

According to Abel's story, information from a few days ago...... if we go now, can we make it?

"Sounds like you care."

Exon says. When I gaze at him, I see him with a grin.

"From me or you, Abel, it's about leaning your neck, but Luon, how you felt something"

How can I explain it? Explain that you know a girl, but if you tell her the details, you'll get bored.

"... I'll tell you first, I don't regret what you think, and I'm going to move to avoid death"

Exon talking abruptly. What the...

"Right, let me clarify my stance around here"

Yeah, preface it, Exon starts talking.

"The reason you spoke of fighting is clear, and it was convincing. But. As I acted with you, I began to wonder if it was a lie."

"Shh...?

Abel frowns. Exon, who opposes him, says, "Well, wait," and controls him by hand.

"Nevertheless, it didn't look like I would do something fraudulent, such as trick me into doing something about it. First, if you're going to do that, Luon, you can do as much as you want with your power. Which means you have a purpose that you want to accomplish with me."

- Exon probably guessed a lot while he was dealing with us. I should have acted to avoid suspicion, but I felt something as a marquis, you mean?

"That is the defeat of Nehmeisa...... but the wise Luon you are apparently guessing. If we consider the status quo Nehmeisa, we will bring confusion to this continent. For example, if it's just revenge, we can squeeze that power and defeat Nehmeisa. Failure to do so does not cause confusion on this continent… I mean, I'm thinking about what happened after the defeat of Nehmeisa and working out a plan"

Again, you're right.

"As I said earlier, I think I'm lying about the reason you told me to fight. This is half my business, so if it was my misunderstanding, I'll apologize. But to me, your lies are trivial. If the ultimate goal is to defeat Nehmeisa - and if there's any extra confusion on the continent, I'd like to say yes."

- Exxon agrees with our purpose, no matter what the circumstances, so are you asking me to tell you the circumstances?

"To put it this far, you figured out what I wanted to claim. Luon, let's hear your answer."

I send my gaze to Sophia. She just nodded back. Being a squire, she follows my actions. Richard looks the same.

... Well, there is also a risk that future measures will arise because we are not discussing the real situation in detail. If Exon is showing us a cooperative attitude, then it's best to say it's best to get on with it.

However,

"... as the Marquis is right"

"Uhm."

"I don't care if we talk about it...... First, there's something I have to do"

"Is that the girl's rescue?

Nod clearly. Abel has a question mark on her mind everywhere, but she doesn't pinch her mouth.

"Fine. The Emperor's side will also have more trouble with the attacker than Schon was defeated. We have no immediate crisis. Do what you have to do."

"Helpful...... Sofia"

"Yes."

"Stay in this mansion and escort me."

Escort, Exon zeroes his voice when he hears the word "ho".

"I haven't seen what she's capable of... is that quite enough?

"I don't mind checking that, but please don't ask me about the situation until I get back. And if you harm her..."

"I won't. I don't have the benefit of doing that... um, I'd rather have the look on your face right now"

I give the look of doubt. Exon against started laughing.

"Talk about how it feels better for me to show you my determined face when I talk than to show you my imaginary face."

"Right...... sorry, but I'll be away for a little while. I'm not gonna be back as soon as I can."

"Oh."

"And, Richard,"

Sending his gaze, he responded with the look of knowing.

"You're a traveling demon."

"Is there a quorum of... about three people, including Richard? I need you to hurry as much as you can."

"If you can use the Dragon Demon Stone in the Marquis' Mansion, you can rub quite a few things the next morning."

"If you say so, there's nothing else to offer."

Exon that I agree with lightly. I said "please" - I told everyone.

"I go to Imperial City to find out about the girl. If you find it... I will take you back to this mansion, so please do it with my intention"
