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

"What the hell is that...?

Mentila was suffering from understanding.

There is a mysterious object on the Zygen Plains that also looks like a large warcraft with wheels. That's apparently a ride.

With farsighted magic, turning him into an adventurer who is more watchful than the other side of the plain, the intelligence agent, and Mentila, the captain's substantive leader, lay down and watch.

The hands of the Duke of Jarzy asked me to kidnap Prince Early. Raising the total power of the captain, he cooperated with the Duke's plan and handed over the prince's personality, which he had taken.

Originally, that's where your work is done, but to Mentila, an intelligence agent of a great empire, the problems between the royal families of the Kingdom of Verilardo are of considerable priority, even in the information to be collected. It was therefore necessary to ascertain what Lord Jarzy would do with Prince Early, even in looking at the future situation.

It was predictable that the Duke would use a griffon to take the prince to his own territory, so Mentila also prepared a giant bird for travel, which is how he is in Canigin territory...... So I didn't know you were going to encounter such a heterogeneous vehicle.

Besides, worse in between, than in the northern part of the Kingdom of Verilardo, it seemed that the invading army spikes had moved. Yes, it is a large group of Ant Subhumans.

Indeed, Mentila remembered that it was the Ant Subman of the Example that was created last year as one of the artificial dungeon cores developed by the Great Empire, its Assault Invasion Corps.

Something on top of my own national plan, I don't know everything as an intelligence agent. Maybe there are mixed speculations, but what a bad thing between them. Because if that large group then the Empire means to start invading the kingdom of Verilardo.

- Can you turn that information here as soon as possible?

Mentila is indignant. I also want to say that I don't care what happens to terminal intelligence agents and so on.

But I don't know if it's the home country or the western army, but the large group of Ant Subhumans sent in as spikes was destroyed overnight.

A vast array of light has swallowed up and wiped out the darkness of the night. I think it's a form of great magic, but honestly, Mentila didn't know what that was.

For an analogy, it could be like the extinction magic of the light of Gin Amiwool, a Union hero who is said to have died six months ago. I've never seen the real thing, but I think maybe that one's close.

But this is also an unexpected harvest. I have yet to grasp any certainty, but I have seen the magic that devastated that large group of Ant Subhumans, the fact that the Kingdom of Verilardo is in possession. This information would be very useful because the Empire has not yet figured out what is going on.

But it's still not enough.

I would like more reliable information if possible. What that magic is. And the identity of that inexperienced vehicle, etc...

After a while of surveillance, a human outside boarded the vehicle. Looks like we're moving somewhere.

On confirmation with farsighted magic, to the Duke of Jarzy, his subordinate knight. Prince Early and Jin Tokitumo, the wizard who has been on that escort lately. Maid clothes are the daughter of the Kathleen family who collapsed in the meteor commotion the other day, Russia, deputy guild leader of the King's Capital Adventurer Guild, to Yuna Vendart, a teacher at the School of Magic Knights. And the unnamed woman wizard......

Leaving it up to kidnapping, it was odd how the Duke and Prince were talking in the same space, but this human combination was also weird.

A six-wheeled vehicle that travels through the plains. Definitely faster than a carriage or something. The distance opens up, but this one has a giant bird that can fly. It's not hard to catch up.

More than that, did you drop something and go...? Mentila's vision contained residues where the vehicle had stopped earlier.

It's just potentially garbage, but it belongs to those dukes and princes who are acting together. Leaving without confirmation was an impossible story for Mentila, an intelligence agent. Sometimes beneficial information is rolling in these details.

Confirming the ride was leaving, Mentila moved. Step on grass about the length of the candle and approach a small run. What was falling was a bottle of wine and one box about thirty centimeters in size. The lid (lid) is not like a trap because it is open...

"What, this black liquid...?

Mentila with her neck hanging, but at that moment, she looks back feeling signs behind her back.

Signs of people. But Mentila couldn't make sure of it. Because the moment I looked back, I was overshadowed by something from behind (...) and my consciousness was pruned as-is.

At the corner of the Zugen Plains, Dezelt had stopped.

Before that, something blackened.

I was watching it with Mr. Bell. Yesterday, when I scouted from the air, I saw the mystery of the Ant Subhuman. In the sweeping magic of light, apparently it consisted of metal. That was more than half melted and the rest burned black.

"Jin!"

From Dezelt's roof, Jarzy shouted out loud.

"What the hell is that?

Answer by shrugging your shoulders. Honestly, I know it's a front-line command thing, but I'm not sure.

"It doesn't look like it's a wheel or a leg, but how did it work..."

"The Ants must have been in charge."

Mr. Bell walks over quickly and his dark debris. Take charge, Kamikoshi...

"Something warm?

"Jin, what do you think this is?

'This' I pointed out with my forefoot. It was a sphere. The size is about the size of a bowling ball. It was black with sweeping magic, but it remained without burning only a part of it. It also looks like crystal.

"Have you ever seen this?

"... dungeon core, huh?

If I may say so, Mr. Bell snorted.

"Oh, my God, you stink. This is... It stinks of that fucking empire..."

The great empire of Diggrattle, the enemy that me and Mr. Bell fought on the side of the United States during our heroic years. That went through my head, and I felt I could read the karaki of this commotion perfectly.

"Hey, these guys are good at this -"

"Oh, sending a disposable superior warcraft as a spike, and after scratching around, the main unit crosses the border and falls into this control..."

Mr. Bell's eyes lit up.

"I've never seen an ant sub before, but I'm guessing they're good at modifying creatures. How long has it been since the Oilers left the war against them?

A few months, maybe six months? Not long ago, but if you stay away from it that much, things will be different.

"Well, I can't say for sure that this is still the work of the Empire."

"There's one way to be sure."

Mr. Bell pointed his gaze at the horizon.

"You just have to keep track of what the ants ate and scattered. If there's a fucking imperial bastard ahead of me, I'll hit it. If it wasn't there, it would be another cause."

"Let's put out the scouts"

I look back when I grab a burnt, powerless dungeon core, Dezelt - and look beyond.

"Did Sfera catch an example kidnapper...?

Before leaving, Sfera, a figure-shaped wand, reported that an executor who had taken Early was nearby. They put a piece of the shapeshifter's body on the transmitter. Say hello to the killer. If you showed up on purpose to see how things were going, you have no hand in letting me get away with it. I ordered Spherer to use Shapeshifters and others to catch him, but he did.

"You've got a lot to do."

Mr. Bell laughs and returns to Dezelt. I nodded.

"Let's go back to Clodis once. I also have to send Jarzy back to King's Capital to report on Early's safety. There's gonna be a lot of noise over there."

Uh, and I need to go see how the fins are exploring Mantur's Azito. I hope I've already done my investigation and sweep......
