The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

The Empire's proud general, McTilla Shade, may have been exhausted in the last few years of battle.

Pressure as a commander. Loss of life.With the aristocrats… .They corrode the hearts of men.

Soldiers get mentally ill by staying on the front lines.Severe stress changes the person.

The experience of the battlefield and the twisted personality become a gap when they return to the rear or home, and afflict the person who is no longer familiar with their surroundings.

Hypersensitivity, violent behavior - I've heard that modern armies have a period of rehabilitation for soldiers pulling them out of the battlefield to keep them from returning home.

Shut up.

Shade has been fighting for the Empire.For him, the division of the Empire was a great stress.In addition to being restrained by his allies, the thread that had supported him up to that point may have been cut off.

"Other than the Great Empire..."

I smile.

“If you don't mind, would you like to build a house somewhere in my territory and live in secret?”

A relaxed and comfortable hideaway. Whether it's Noi Arvent or any other town or village, I can arrange for you to be able to live at your leisure in my territory.

On your territory?

"No, living somewhere is probably with Alicia, right?"My sons and daughters want to be able to see her. ”

When he saw Leu, he nodded.

"Even if the blood wasn't connected, for me it was short, but I was watching as a daughter."

Honestly, Shade has been with Alicia longer than I have.... well, let's keep it quiet.

Second Life, is that it?

The shade looked surprising.Captain Lungar has an indescribable expression on his face.

“Didn't you expect to use me?”

Is that what you call it?

“I'm in your hands.You could have gathered information about the Empire, or you could have used me as a hostage for Cyrus. ”

Oh no!

Leu and Nim spoke up at the same time.

“Dad wouldn't do that!”

Jin-sama won't do such a thing!

Yeah, because Alicia is my daughter, right?You can't use it for such a terrible thing.

"In short, you are a capable soldier in the Empire, so it would be better to make use of it. Is that an appeal?"

It's ironic. The shade said, "No, that's not true..." and stood beside her neck.

“General Shade, I admire you and see you as a sufficient threat.Certainly, no one would be as reliable as this one. ”

After all, Willidis' army suffered a lot of damage in his hands.

That's why...

"Without you in the Empire, the Empire will have a great power drop."I won't try to help you. "

"In that sense, if I wished for the return of the Empire, would you have stopped it?"

"If you want, you can return."However, I don't think the Empire has the talent to use you..... "

We also had the Wind and Earth Magic Machine in our hands.General Shade may not want to return to the Empire, but his threat level has dropped considerably.

"I didn't expect you to lightly acknowledge my hidden life."

Shade laughed self-consciously.

"No, I, too, have a longing for a leisurely life."I know how you feel. ”

"... I see. Surely, someone like you will not be left alone, Jin Amiwool."

When I first came here, Shade mouthed the black tea that was served.

“Could you give me a moment to think about it?”

"Of course, General Shade."

When I nod, I suddenly say what I was curious about.

"General Shade, I'm sorry to bother you with a personal question..."

“What is it?”

"Are you the son of Kurfu Diggle?"

"... what about you?"

The eyes of the shade became dotted.Captain Lungar has his eyes peeled.

"No, but... why all of a sudden?"

"I was consulted when I had dinner with His Majesty."I have a hidden child, and I want to give him a gift, but what do I want? "

My remarks hardened Shade and made Captain Lunger nervous.... from the side, I'm known to be an enemy of Diggle, and I'm personally dining with Diggle, and I'm having a private conversation.

“What did you say? Lady Amiwool."

"I asked myself,"

I don't know who he is or what he looks like.I can't advise anything I don't know.

But Shade was the Emperor's hidden child.I wasn't sure either.... hn?

The shade I'm thinking about. Oh, that face sounds like something to me.

Amiwool-sama, perhaps you've been told by His Majesty that you can get the reign of emperor?

The Captain Lunger I was listening to was giggling at me with the tea I was drinking.I wonder what these people are really talking about.

"I told him that I didn't want him because I didn't want him to be the emperor's son."

Oh, by the way...

"I was missing it.Emperor Diggle said his son didn't know he was a father.I apologize for being rude. "

It's nonsense to ask if you're the Emperor's son, even though you don't know it.

No.

I still think of the shade with a difficult face.

"If what you say is true, don't let the story of His Majesty that we met before fall into your hands..."Well, there's no evidence that I'm His Majesty's bloodline. "

“I see. Sooner or later, I'll be there, so I'll ask.”

Kurfu Diggle is immortal. I don't doubt the survival of the mineral dust.
