Sword of the Philosopher

A few days after returning to the Kingdom of Barks, I headed north and slipped through the Demon King Castle to the coast. The purpose was to go to the Nazareid continent... to use magic to cross the sea.

Fast-moving magic moves between continents... It was originally a frivolous way, and it took a lot of effort to fight the Demon King immediately after, but now... now that I have the strength to fight the Star God, I can afford it.

Now, Lord Luon. Traveling across the continent on your own... that's a unique technique for Lord Luon.

"That's right..."

Zazan, you can hear the sound of the waves. and here,

"Speaking of which, Lord Luon, I've been gone for a while in the Kingdom of Barks... but since then, I've been thinking about something." What happened to the royalty?

I think I'm going to have a chat... and I'm going to...

Ah, that's right.

Hmm?

"I can't tell you the details because Gulk is right about the royal family... yes"

I start walking to the shore, whispering my head.

"One thing I can say for sure."

What?

"Maybe, but... maybe Queen Minerva advised me."

There was no response from Gulk. I don't know what you're talking about. But I can't tell you anymore, so if others ask me, I'll answer that there was something royal.

Well, let's go.

I murmured and used magic. I ran across the sea using travel magic. If you look back just for a moment, the land will decrease at a frightening rate.

If the magic were interrupted, I would be upset by the sea... but I'm fine now. The problem is that we're moving in the right direction, but we're working with Gulk to solve it.

Speaking of which, the Nazareid continent was visited with a transfer device on the ruins of an angel.

You were stunned.

"We were able to get an approximate insight into ancient technology... but it's okay if the angels built a network to fight the star gods."

Probably so. Eventually, it was no good. "

Gulk replies, then changes his story.

Lord Luon, what will you do after you reach the continent?

"First, I thought I'd go see the Emperor Abel... but do you want me to pay the gate?"

Considering Lord Luon's achievements, it seems that he will let me pass lightly...

"Let's go everywhere before the Emperor." I'll meet with Anastasia, so if you can give her a letter, she'll let me through. ”

Hmm, that's right.

When I came to a conclusion, I rushed through... the continent was far away, but I wasn't worried at all.

Then, after a few days, I arrived on the Nurzaleid continent. Incidentally, Gulk created a magical space on the ocean as a place to rest, so there's plenty of room for magic.

For now, let's go see Exxon.

First, the marquis who helped me in the battle... so on the way, I went under the Exxon while looking around the city I visited.

"... I understand the circumstances."

He told me that he was the most open-minded person to come and see me.

"Rather, the Anastasian guy gave me the information."

“Maybe there's something you can help me with?”

"To a certain extent, yes. However, after the end of the Empire's battle, we shared roles." I'm inside and Anastasia's outside. Originally, Anastasia studied many things. The truth of the world may be a coveted object of study for him. "

"I'm happy to be with you, too..." Exxon muttered bitterly in his heart.

Of course. In fact, I felt like I had to take the tasty part of the post-war treatment with me and push it through the troublesome part.

"...... I'm sure you'll understand."

Exxon began to laugh at the comment.

"Well, even with me, I was able to look around this continent a lot through processing." Some results have been achieved. I don't feel like I've been thrown everything. "

That's fine... but do you have any thoughts about the existence of the Star God?

"To me, it's too big an enemy. Honestly, I can't understand why you're trying to fight."

And, bitterly smiling at him.

“As far as I'm concerned, I'm not directly involved in helping Anastasia.”

"But you're working with me, right?" I appreciate that. "

I see? If you can say so, I'd be happy to say so.

"... the order in the Empire hasn't completely calmed down yet, has it?"

Exxon nodded tinyly as he asked for confirmation.

"Nefmeiza was so proud of her influence in the center of power. In the first place, if he's not competent, he can't do that kind of entertainment."

Isn't it hard to fill that hole?

"Yes, but your Majesty is doing well." I can see that the situation on the chaotic continent is improving day by day. ”

I see... I'm relieved that I didn't make a mistake in that fight.

Oh, and your Majesty wanted to see Luon.

To me?

It seems that Anastasia has made various statements to the Emperor about the Star God countermeasures, so it must be related to that.

"Eh, you're talking to the Emperor!?"

“It seems that Anastasia convinced His Majesty that the world is in crisis and that the Shergia mainland is ready to help.”

Hmm, that's ridiculous... Honestly, it's kind of like helping me out with my merits, and I don't want to say that the Torbasian Empire should do the same because other countries are like this.

"However, it seems that His Majesty had some intention to help." While the chaos is still going on, it's not that other ministers are complaining about it for the time being. "

"I'm glad to hear that... but I'd like to see you once... could you please let me through?"

"It'll be fine, but let's write a letter." That should give you a good look. "

Oh, thank goodness... I got a letter from him and told him I'd go see Anastasia next time.

"Then we should hurry up a bit." I was contacted a few days ago. He said he would head to the Shergia continent as soon as he was ready. "
