"Algort......! I don't believe it... ho, really... is that you?

"Yes, my brother. It's me... it's Algort."

To Ergonote's slightly trembling voice, Argoat replied with a clear voice. And as I took a step, I stuck my arms out.

Ergonote, who touched his dreaded thin, small hand, opened his golden eyes wide.

"Oh... a miracle, this is"

"Brother Ergonote!

"Argoat!"

They held each other tight in the long hallway in front of the cathedral.

As it was at the time, but I'm sure he was definitely my brother Algort. With the joy of reunion and the surprise of seeing a miracle, a large adult spills tears and leaks a whimper of joy.

As the light dawn sun slanted into the diagonal creating a fantastic sight, Ergonote, the brave man of a large body, hugged his little brother tightly to make sure, as he mercifully did.

"It hurts... brother"

"It's not a ghost...! Warm. But... how could this look... as it used to be?

"Master Grecas, the wise man, has helped us. I... have been cursed and turned into a little rat."

"Grecas broke the curse for me!

"Yes."

Ergonote stunned, holding Algort's face with both hands and peeking directly into the front.

And look at my face like I'm confused. What a handsome, flashing face that face is. But from that reaction, it doesn't look like it's acting. I guess I really didn't know my brother was hung by a curse.

Ergonote said all the royalty and subordinates who were in the royal palace had been killed. But this is how Prince Algort survived.

"Ergonote, there will be some stories to pile up, but can you give me some time now?

"Ah, ah..."

I put my hands on the back of both of them.

Ergonote is wearing a uniform like a noble garment with gold embroidery in a bean color, and embracing a small exotic boy in the hallway stands out on boulders.

Several citizens who had already come to join the nuns and worship are watching this way, stopping their feet.

"Master Sage, but what the hell is going on here?

The Assistant Secretary for Special Matters at the Ministry of the Interior, Monoreder, puts his head on.

"Wait, Monoreder, just now His Royal Highness the Son-in-law called his son Algoat. Sure... the name that was on the Royal Register of the destroyed Israelis"

Bigeye on the blonde hair, her partner in a bishy black suit, Scarlett, presents her knowledge.

"No way, then. This girl..."

"Well, as you can guess. But let's change places before we talk. Right... I like the group penance room you see there (...)"

"Okay."

A little further down the stone corridor is a line of doors to the small penance chamber for citizens who come to the Cathedral Church to confess or confess their sins. In the deepest part of it is the hanging door of a bill called 'The Repentance Room for Organizations', which makes for a simple room of about five merte quarters.

It is used by your family and former bandits when visiting for penance. Well, I've never actually seen it used.

"See you today... in a luxurious line. What the hell kind of confession is that?

"I'm Scarley, Special Assistant to the Interior Ministry of the King's Government. Excuse me, but I'll just rent you a little room."

"... as God wills"

One of the priests who came to hear penance shut the lattice quietly as Scarley showed her bracelet like a silver armband from the cuff of the suit.

"Well, may I explain, wise man"

Scarlett turns to me like she's just starting an interrogation. Kicking his eyebrow root, he lifted the beautiful blonde hair cut together around his shoulder to his ear.

"Are you talking to me?

"I just wanted to hear from you... we're taking it in right now"

Special Assistant Monoreder shrugged his shoulder and deliberately lifted his brow.

Me and my two special aides set their sights in the same direction.

At the end of his gaze was the appearance of a brother delighted to reunite. Sitting on a chair provided for the penance room, Prince Ergonote's son-in-law is cheeky and weeping at Sri Sri and his brother as he holds former Prince Argoat on his lap.

"Ha ha... I can't believe it, I'm happy for you, Al"

"Also, already! Let go of me."

"No, I won't let you go! How much do you think I've been looking for you! If it's an illusion..."

"I'll stay here."

"Ooh, Argoat"

Algoat with a troubled face, but not likely to escape the embrace of a brother with a different physique. Start kissing your cheeks all the time.

"No, don't, brother."

"So..."

"Hmm. How much time do we have?

"In about ten minutes. With the excuse that His Royal Highness the Son-in-law has a long restroom break, we can manage up to twenty minutes."

Special aide Scarley glanced slightly inside the silver bracelet on his left arm. It appears to be a recently supplied magic tool, and it appears to have a built-in display of time by embedded luminous stones and crystal ball communication capabilities to observe from the properties of the exuded magic waves.

Sure, it's time to move on to your next appointment.

Ergonotes of various busy identities, but I guess the importance is lowered by the fact that they are walking with only two people who can be described as conveniencemen of the Ministry of the Interior without escort.

I'm not even wearing my favorite treasure sword, I'm just lowering my decorated protective dagger to my waist.

"Again, this child is Algoat, the true brother of Ergonote, the third prince of the former Kingdom of Israel"

"Oh my God......!

"What should I write in my report, Scarlett?"

"As usual, thanks to the magic of the wise Grecas,"

"What I want to talk to you two about here as a top priority is about Prince Algort's physique. Somehow, I want you to talk to me through your boss and make sure I'm safe."

The first priority is to have Prince Algort's physical safety guaranteed by the Royal Government of Metanostadt and the Royal Palace.

Again, it's hard to meet a princess without an appointment all of a sudden. These two work for the Ministry of the Interior under the direct authority of Her Highness Princess Snoovel. It will be easy to talk about.

It's more like afterwards to ask about how he was cursed, the relationship between the treasure sword and the ergonote, and that kind of information.

"... ok. Talk to your manager immediately. Enter the most important incident code in Magic Communications, Monoreder"

"Aiisa"

"Wait, Grecas! What's gonna happen to Algort!? If my brother... was found alive, there would be confusion!? If you do poorly, even life."

Even the boulder ergonote seems to have noticed there. Give me my brother for a while or I'll just hug him.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ergonote, son-in-law, must leave for Israel tomorrow and come to the signing ceremony. The child will not be able to be taken. If the Israelite royal family, who thought there were no survivors, were to know that there was another prince, there would be a great deal of confusion..."

Scarley clasps her mouth. You thought it was an act of transcendence to speculate about what had happened.

"Please! Grecas! Save my brother... Algort! I don't care what happens to me, I don't care what happens to me, I don't care if I throw away my treasure sword, I don't mind being Princess Snoovel's slave for the rest of my life... so..."

"Please stop, Your Royal Highness, the son-in-law of Ergonaut!

Special Assistant Scarlett enters the stop.

"Ergonote......"

This is the first time I've seen an ergonote that seriously asks someone else for something. Those eyes were filled with heartless desperation without lies.

"... Ergonote, who is Chicko, as long as you are here, tomorrow's signing ceremony in Israel can be executed without any problems. Given that, it's best to hide Prince Algort's presence. It is also concealed through the approval of King Methanostat's government (...), that is the only way"

"Huh...?

"The existence of former Prince Argoat, the King's Government and Ergonote, if only you knew. It will be a single negotiating material for you."

"Card? What do you mean?"

Would my thoughts have been passed on to Ergonote? At least Monoreder and Scarley looked at each other haphazardly.

"If Methanostat protected Argoat, so did Prince Ergonote's son-in-law with a bell on his neck. Once, you demonized (...), you're not trusted in the royal palace, are you?

"Ugh...!

Apparently, it's a drawing star. It also seems to have something to do with breaking up with Princess Snoovel.

"But if Metanostadt cares so much about protecting my dear brother (...), do you ever expose the princess's secrets or plot a rebellion in a remote land?

I smiled and lifted my glasses with my fingertips. Ergonote turns his serious eyes on me.

"I see."

"Sage, that means..."

"We'll have Prince Algort taken hostage (...). Regardless, it's a big premise to safeguard your life. That would also have to increase the reliability of ergonotes. Survival Strategies, Operation One Stone Two Birds."

"I see!"

But the brothers will be separated...
