Sword of the Philosopher

After the next day, Sofia and Liese will have discussions with the national side… The negotiations will be conducted mainly by the accompanying senior government officials, but they will also participate as representatives.

However, as for the Ziirdyne side, it is difficult to consult in detail because Liese is present but there are no other personnel, basically the Kingdom of Barks and the Holy King of Liebait are negotiating.

As a jiirdyne, I guess it starts off as a stepping stone and ends up like that... just as if it were not a bilateral negotiation but also a tri-national negotiation, it would be confusing and the things that come together would not come together. So Reese is only a sidekick. The lead role seems to be only in the form of Sofia.

So, it's me... I'll stay in the castle for a while, and I'll be guided first. The structure of the castle also came to mind, and yet Princess Emena gave me materials as information. I have already put it together within yesterday, and it is precisely in the form of a verbal implementation.

Princess Emena is in the process of preparing herself for the journey and I can't see her... but the amount of material is considerable. It's a lot of work that I don't think I've slept through when I'm bad... but it would be hard to recruit manpower in a situation where I don't even know who the enemy is in the first place. Not to mention in the middle of the night. Even if I borrowed Jack's squire's hand, I think it's pretty tough... she's doing a great job. There's nothing else to be impressed with here.

Or did you get desperate because your life is in danger... and those parts would be huge too.

"Well, and"

I'm going back to my room and I'm going to scrutinize the materials. Let's start with this map of the continent of Lisfana. Far more scrutiny than what was in the kingdom of Barks, so that we can learn more about the terrain and other details.

"Wow, I also have information about the terrain of other countries... did this work with each other's countries or is there any other reason..."

There were world maps in previous life, and I know about the names of cities in other countries... basically maps are classified as military secrets. Naturally we have to know about domestic terrain and so on, so each country produces an accurate map... if it leaks outside, it will be bad... but this map is for all the countries present within the continent of Lisfana... the terrain is described.

In addition, there are numerous geographic information and so on… there are also materials that contain points that are not known from tourist guides and so on.

"I appreciate it but... yeah, enough info to find out"

There was also a note left to write, and the materials were collected in anticipation of the time. The samurai and the like enter the room, so the details of what to do about it are also detailed. Somehow, it's a head down thought.

Well, I can understand you're desperate for her... but I'll take the map. We need to scrutinize whether or not the materials are consistent with what we're looking for, in order to find a place where we could lurk.

"To know about the star god... for example, if you have information in some big library, maybe it's still easy to understand"

In the meantime, do you decide to find out where you are going to be a candidate? I get dizzy with the material, but I was prepared for deskwork, and I don't hate it, so I'm going to be working in my room all day today.

Start fishing for materials. I said I wouldn't mind being outside if I was free about Yuno, but I either expressed interest in the map or I look down at the map I spread out on the table and drift off.

"Hey, Luon."

"What's up?

"Again, I doubt that information about Star God... you visited here to find out about that, didn't you?

"Right. As for Sophia and Liese, I'm also interested in the technology that's on this continent... but that's only a secondary thing there. This is about information about the star gods and the disturbances that will begin now."

"So, I haven't found anything about the key sources"

"Based on the material borrowed from Princess Emena, we have to choose a candidate that looks like it and look it up from one end to the other. If you still can't find it, you just have to observe Princess Emena's journey"

"... you mean one of the princesses is connected to the star god, right?

"Game...... the story spinning on this continent is definitely about star gods. So the princess's journey leads straight to the clarification of the star god... I don't know how, but if we leave the turmoil on this continent alone, the future of collapse awaits, which is why we are here to prevent it or to take measures"

"Yeah, I see... so, if you can get ahead of me, you mean you want to do that, right?

"Sort of. Is the battle with the star god imminent or not... when the unrest on the Lisfana continent is over, you can't even look at it if it's days away from collapse, can you?

"Sure... So, what's that candidate?

"Probably, but the princess is going to travel all over this continent... and I'm guessing. So well, the place to be a candidate is all over the continent... if you have a place that looks suspicious, tell me."

"Suspicious places... I don't know anything about maps in the first place."

Proceed with the work while interacting with Yuno that way. First of all, I narrowed down a few candidates for places where I was likely to get information… especially about where I could find out about Star God.

Naturally, that would be a national library or something like that... but when it comes to searching all over the continent, it's still a lot.

However, when asked if Star God's information is asleep in a shallow country or something...? I was just wondering, for example,

"Hey, hey, Luon"

I've been looking at the map. I've been calling to see if Yuno noticed anything.

"There's something interesting about it. Here."

As I approached the map, she was pointing to a point on the map. Beyond that was the

"... a free city, huh?

That is where the borders of several countries intersect, including the Kingdom of Liebait. His name is Torbas. If you look it up in the dossier, it looks like a city state with a lot of history.

"That's an important trading route... I don't know what kind of clue we're looking for to the star god, but it sounds good for gathering information"

"Do you want to go?

"You can name a candidate.

For example, I might be able to get information about hiding places and land that isn't on the map… I decided to go further and describe the city state in my notes.
