Apolito Floating Island The Grand Duke of Targia's Hall on Central Island, between the celestial spheres.

Captain Stigme, who refrains behind Talguia, the Lord, had a hard look. Talgia said to Eagle Deep Friend (Good Morning), who had confirmed the complete report from a dedicated chair.

"Has your sister's assassination failed?"

"Yes......"

"It was a bad script for you."

"It's not up to me."

Stigme drowned his head.

"No way, Jin Amiwool is on that spot, and he's no longer holding us back."

"It's not.... It's not, Mettley."

Targia closed her eyes as she sang, but couldn't even look stigmatized on her back.

"He wiped your ass."

"Is...?

"Don't you see? Well, I guess so."

If you know what I mean, such measures are taken - Targia turned the chair.

"Did you think a demon machine would pull through the SS guard? Even if the assassination was successful, the pilot was captured shortly afterwards by SS, from which the mastermind of the assassination was explored. This is why!

"Sorry!

Stigme fell on the spot. But Targia smiled, not angry.

"I'm sorry I couldn't assassinate you, but Jin Amiwool did a good job. Not only did I blow up the pilot without leaving any bones and erase the assassin's lead, but I also crushed the possibility of involvement in the rest of the assassination by stating that I was in your asylum."

Captain Stigme is the keeper of the Grand Duke of Targia. The Queen and SS will think that the Grand Duke's involvement is weak, at least in this assassination attempt, when those who are being sheltered (straw) by that Stigme have stopped the assassination.

"Were you showing him the assassination plot?

There's no annihilation.

Stigme shook his head sideways.

"A serious matter that could come down to you in danger. I can't say anything else."

"... then you're a terribly sensible guy"

Talguia snorted.

"I guess I heard about this relationship from Canonas. Otherwise, I can't stand around like this."

"... I'm afraid, how shall we respond to Jin Amiwool?

"It may stay this way. Sometimes the rest of us come into contact poorly, and we lose our balls."

"Ha ha."

"Let's think about the next step.... and send a messenger to Canonas to report the results, including about him. Before the old men make a scene."

"I understand, my Lord"

"Is it true you grabbed the Demon Machine with your bare hands?!?

Gregna El's bright voice still sounds today. I sit on a bench by the training ground and look up to heaven.

"What the hell, gorillas?"

"What's a gorilla, Shigeye?"

Gregna El's face throat up into my sight. You look like a curious evil kid.

"It's the most powerful animal of primates."

He said, "Oh, my God."

"I didn't crush Douel's arm with my bare hands, I did it with my magic."

Elle just ate the word 'magic' if he missed the point.

"Magic! You smashed the Demon Machine with magic!? That's awesome!

"El, if it's magic, I can take down as many demon planes as you and I can."

Grenya Hull said, sitting right next to me.

"My Earth Spike or Crag Press doesn't make one or two of the Devil's machines."

"Sister, sister, sister! Me!?

"Maybe we should hit him with thunder."

To Hal, who said pale, Elle lurked his eyebrows.

"With thunder, I wonder if I can pierce the demon machine..."

"Hold on, El. You're the Wind Magic Witch candidate, aren't you? That's how much you have to do."

"But come on...... Shisei-"

"Look, El. Magic is the power of your own will."

I tell Mr. Bell what I've been teaching and telling those who beg for it.

"The size in front of me doesn't matter. I can't do it because they're big, and that's never gonna happen."

I was going to tell the Gregna sisters, but the students at the training ground were stopping and listening. When I look around again, the knight students move their bodies again and enthusiastically encourage training.

Especially Bull, Leos, and Kruff, who had witnessed me magically manipulate the Demon Machine, so they didn't have half the way to put that heat in.

When the Gregna sisters gave me today's magic lecture, I had a visitor.

Captain Mettley Stigme. It is that person. We can see the training ground, but we'll move a little further away and we'll have a conversation alone.

"Thank you, Jin Amiwool."

said Captain Stigme.

"The Grand Duke has scolded me, but he's going to let me handle my misdemeanor."

"That won't be your fault"

I think I'm unlucky that I was scolded just for being there. Well, the Grand Duke says he's the brother of Her Majesty the Empress, and if it's a crisis in the lives of his flesh parents, he'll be hit with anger.

"Did you find out anything about the assassin?

"No.... because you blew me off perfectly. You can't even tell."

Stigme smiling. I cheeked.

"Have you gone a little too far?"

"No, it was a perfect job."

The demon machine that lost the pilot is no more of a threat. I think secondary damage could have been prevented by not detonating the fuselage by retaining it only in the cockpit. Though it was a setback in terms of identifying the killer.

I decided to change the subject.

"Sounds like there's going to be a competition for the Twelve Knights soon."

"Oh."

"The young knights are working hard for the next twelve knights"

"How's their trust in you?

"I don't think it's bad. At least you're listening to me."

"Fine. Then you'll be at the top of the tournament."

"... after all, was I also entered"

I had a feeling about that from your mouth, Khurf the Knight of Obedience.... I don't remember giving up hope to participate, nor am I interested in the Twelve Knights.

"The Grand Duke also looks forward to your work"

Captain Stigme looked at me.

"I believe that your power would greatly alter the order of the Twelve Knights. Take the top, Your Excellency said."

"What is the top...... knock down Lord Commander for a moment," he said?

"It is also possible to lead the main forces of Apolito if you are in the position of Commander"

"… do you intend to empower me, the stranger, to lead the army"

Though they are likely to be rebelled by the great men and nobles.... Speaking of which, is this man also a nobleman?

"We can't just leave it like this."

Stigme turned his gaze far away.

"Apolito has to change, too. For that, show me your power."
