Sword of the Philosopher

The conversation turned unexpected, but it doesn't change what we do in our organization. If the Phantom Beast Terra is going to give this one a test, just prepare it accordingly.

So I move around a lot as Devals tells me to leave... so the problem is about Sophia. It is a cooperative phantom beast, but there is no denying the possibility of fighting...... I can just expect that to be against an organisation challenging 'God', so there is also the possibility of fighting if she is to be associated. For that matter,

"I couldn't..."

He tried to persuade me a lot, but he was fiercely against it. I might not have a choice.

"But you don't look like you're giving up..."

"Yes, we still have a few days until the day of departure. I'm ready, and as soon as I get proper permission, I can accompany you. Sticks to critical"

It's a word so full of determination that I haven't shown it much before... I can predict that you don't like it first because you can't accompany me and that you don't like to be made even worse.

By the way, Sophia is now going to my room to report... her outfit is in a white dress I've seen many times in the castle, but it probably isn't my fault that it seems kind of cramped.

"But we only have a few days left. Can you persuade me?

"I don't know...... but even Sister Reese will accompany me. There's no way I can't go with you."

I don't even know why... I questioned whether Reese would be good, but I didn't mention it.

"But the presence of phantom beasts… the benefits brought about by them are immeasurable."

"Right. I never thought the phantom beast side would be friendly."

However, maybe this is just fantasy beast terra being kind. Other phantom beasts, for example, need to be subdued by force... there seems to be a lot of potential.

That might be quicker to talk about... and speaking of which -

"Mr. Devals said something funny"

"Funny thing?

"The phantom beast, Sophia imagines an animal-like being, like the phantom beast Terra, right?

"Right. The phantom beasts in the books and so on are a lot like that."

"But some of the categories called phantom beasts seem to have a human appearance. Apparently, the angel's investigation team met in the midst of the Phantom Beast Terra."

Most importantly, the exterior is different from the contents even if it's together.

"The phantom beast is building a colony so that humans can be formed... and it seems that a presence like the head of the species in it has shown interest by listening to our organization"

And that's how the knock sounds when we're talking. When I opened the door as I replied, Eina was there.

"Lord Luon, give me the report... Ah, Master Sophia. Were you here?"

"What can I do for you?

"No, because the samurai was looking for you."

"... Could it be that you left the room in silence?

Sophia smiled at this question,

"I'm just going to see Master Luon, so there won't be a problem"

... That's sort of Sophia's freedom, but this is what worries me a lot... okay.

Somehow, after entering the castle, I think again that Sofia has some pretty rampant sides. I do my official business properly, but sometimes in my free time, I go outside using secret escape routes so much... by the way, I can't say anything about her behavior. There, look, I want you to guess.

So, Eina leaves, and I look through the report. from Devals,

"... Oh, this is..."

"What's up?

I'll explain to Sophia who tilts her neck.

"As for the phantom beast close to the person we were talking about... well, somehow, when I explained the circumstances about me, he said he wanted to fight it out"

"... that's belligerent"

I agree with Sophia on the inside.

In addition, Devals would like to give a detailed explanation of the organization and, as a result, determine whether he is qualified to challenge 'God' with the phantom beast Terra and the human race. Hmm, apparently you're not talking about trying just me.

"Sounds like members of the organization need to work hard too..."

"Dear Luon, do you have a report about me?

"... I don't know if the report mentioned Sofia"

I belong to the organization for once... but no, I would have explained it exactly because I meant Devals. Besides, the organization has Sophia as well as Reese and so on, and it is an extremely natural flow to explain that there is a princess.

"Decided to interpret it as explaining... it looks like we're going to be fighting the Phantom Beast next"

"... integrating stories so far"

And, Sophia starts talking.

"We examined the ruins of the angels in order to obtain information about 'God', the enemy, and came to the conclusion that Mr. Anverate might know it. And it takes the magic of a phantom beast to awaken her, and once they're in the investigation, they're trying to determine if they're cooperative and qualified to challenge 'God'."

"That feels kind of twisted..."

If you can join hands with the phantom beast, secure the source of magic without causing them useless scratches. The conversation may go faster than assumed, as it will be a schematic that you can talk to Anverate from there.

"And the only problem that remains is with Sophia."

"I'll do my best"

"No, if you don't want to go..."

"I'm coming."

Strengthens the tone of speech. I couldn't say anything more and nodded silently.

So, I turn again to the report after Sophia leaves. Devals keeps discussing things with phantom beasts well...... maybe in the future phantom beasts will even come into the organization?

"Assuming that's the case, don't get even busier..."

Amel is currently training combatants, but if there's a mix of phantom beasts here, it's going to be even more outrageous.

Whatever it is, let's hope the discussions with them go well now...... I get up to do a report and take a peek at the situation of my people.

"Sophia is... in a few days, but I wonder if I can conclude?

Perhaps King Claudius will allow me to go... but I have no choice but to leave this place to the castle side, so I left the room to do what I can.
