The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight’s favorites

There were guards around the northern tower even at night. Gilbert came here for the first time, but it's just unused, and there's weeds all around the tower, and there's no one but the guards. Lutz wasn't supposed to be on duty at this time. Gilbert stays low and watches from the shadows.

There are three guards around the tower. Two of them, one of them, are patrolling the perimeter at the front entrance. There's a back door, but it's locked, and there's no guards there.

─ ─ From the back.

Gilbert turned to the back door, confused by darkness and weeds. Be vigilant and check from afar. There is a key hole in the door, apart from which the part of the handle is wrapped around the chain, and there is a padlock attached to it. Even if he had the key, he would have noticed it with the sound of unzipping the chain. Gilbert doesn't have a key. But the key didn't seem special.

Gilbert, who moved in front of the door for an opportunity when the patrol watch passed, struck a magical soundproofing line between himself and the door. Visualize the structure of the key and manipulate the interior workmanship with the brought wire. When the keys and chains were removed, chains were overlapped on one side of the door's handle, and the wires were centered so that they could not be distinguished in the dark at night.

The tower seemed to be a warehouse of unnecessary items, and there were many wooden boxes piled up in the rough space. There was something like broken furniture. Hiding behind you is a spiral staircase. Go down to the basement to avoid making footsteps, hide behind the walls, and gaze ahead. There seemed to be some rooms in the prison, but there was only one room with a light. There is a sleepy man inside who will be watching. Gilbert entered the room at once as the man turned his back on the entrance.

"- Excuse me."

Without giving him a sword or looking back, he restrains the man from behind. I sniffed the medicine I had procured earlier and lost consciousness. Just to be more careful, I brought you a rope to restrain you.

"Who are you? It's an unfamiliar face."

It was the same voice I heard through Lutz. The voice, which is not too low, passes well even though the volume is small. Gilbert turned around and fell on one knee. Remove the cloth from the sheath of the sword hidden under the cloak and place it in front of you.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Conrad.

I lowered my head and touched the armband on my right wrist. It was dull, it restored the shine of platinum and dark brown hair returned to its original silver color. When the color of the skin was restored, the eyes of indigo crystal stone appeared to the white skin as usual.

"Are you... Iolia's?"

Until then, Lutz's memories did not change his expression very much, but he stared at Gilbert with his eyes round.

"Yes, I'm Gilbert Forster from Ioria."

"I've met you once. I wonder if it was a nightclub or something... I remember. I'm sorry I looked like this. Raise your face. This is the one with the head down."

Conrad was calm when he met his country and the nobles of the warring country. Do you realize what Gilbert came here for? Gilbert raised his face as he was told. Then, the concert lowers its head.

"I apologize to my foolish brother for waging war on your country. Eratos got caught in the shadow inside."

"Raise your head. ─ ─ Speaking of your country, is it a successor struggle with His Highness Helmut?"

A conqueror caught poisoning. The King is sleeping sickly because he took a small amount of it. Helmut serves on behalf of the King and is waging war on the Kingdom of Ioria. I wonder if Conrad was fitted in a helmut. Helmut poisoned the king himself and pushed his sins into the concert. Otherwise, it is hard to believe that the King has slept so long. He wasn't weak enough to sleep for months with a small amount of poison.

"Haha, I guess I can see you. ─ ─ Yes, I'm the stupid brother who lost to my stupid brother's plan."

"Your Highness didn't seem like such a person."

"When it comes to my family, I have to say that it was sweet. No matter how bad a brother and family he was, he didn't realize his relationship was broken enough to go to such a riot. I'm different now."

Gilbert got up and stepped forward. Stretch your arms out of the gap in the fence.

"─ ─ If His Highness would take my hand, I would be a good ally to His Highness."

Conrad lay his eyes down and approached Gilbert. Bring your lifted hand closer to Gilbert's.

"I wonder what happens when I take this hand."

"I can know all your thoughts. I can't help you if it's likely to be detrimental to our country... but I don't think so, Your Highness."

Gilbert told the truth honestly. Conrad raised her mouth to the answer and touched Gilbert's hand in a good mood.

"Let's believe it. Besides, I don't have any bad manners to be seen."

The idea of a concert coming into Gilbert was an uncomplicated patriotism. We want to make our people happy, we want to stabilize our country, we want to grow and raise our children. And in order to enrich Elatos, I would like to engage in diplomacy with Aiolia.

"Thank you very much. I believe in His Highness, too."

Gilbert unlocked the cell without changing his expression. There was a blunt sound and the key fell on the floor. I felt as if I had been caught in the weight of the key.
