Time goes on - night.
Everyone. Tonight, you can celebrate the new history of the Empire and enjoy it with all your heart. - Honor to Stanza!
Honor!!
Sitting at the banquet that began with sunset, Diana watched the event while calmly analyzing it (it was a performance to show off the mining discovery festivals to the Elgrand side rather than a feast of Elgrand ambassadors).
About a week ago, I was convinced that Brad and Alciolene were in love, and I discussed with the entire Elland Mission how we could bring them together using the grant system. It was Mia's casual proposal that broke through the very stringent conditions that made "giving" a reality, requiring achievements comparable to taking the head of an enemy king or general in battle.
"For the Stanza Empire, invasion of a foreign country is a means of maintaining one's own country and producing wealth, right? Then, if you donate anything other than war to your country, will that triumph be no less than the neck of an enemy king?
"Well, that's true. Raine-sama's father, Dr. Tebaran, also believes that the means to make the country wealthy by stealing wealth from other places is already overwhelming, so perhaps he would like to do more research to produce crops that will grow steadily even in the low-rainfall Stanza Empire."
"The direction is correct, but research on plants really takes time...."
"No matter how fast a plant grows, it will take nearly a month to grow from seeds and harvest fruit."
Alciolene's father, Dr. Tebaran, says he is sceptical about the imperial identity system. That's why, instead of relying on a way that you can't sustain if you don't bully someone, people want a world where they can grow their own wealth and grow their lives, and they are taking on the research of plants. ― ― The calmer things get, the more they penetrate the unwavering beliefs that Diana respects.
"The point is, I wish there was" wealth "in the Stanza Empire that could be used immediately..."
Diana comprehensively combines the words she muttered with the various scenery she has seen so far in Ifthane and the knowledge she gained in college.
"... I have a hand. We need to consult with your father and Miss Voltz before we can move on to implementation and get your permission."
"At that point in time, I just have a bad feeling...."
"Well, I'm sure it's a close solution to all kinds of bets. Find the undiscovered resources in the Stanza Empire."
Among the stunned faces, Kai was the first to react.
"Resources"? Groundwater or something like that?
"That's fine, but it's hard to dig up groundwater sources... is it a mine that's quick? Jewel veins, iron more simply..."
"... is it too risky for a military power like this to discover an iron mine anyway?
"That's why I have to talk to your father. ― ― Judging from the records of steel making technology stored in the university and the industrial level shown in the eastern district of Ifthane, I don't think that the current Stanza Empire has reached the stage of making" steel, "so it would be a threat to Elgrand to the extent that one mine has been found.
--Approximately ninety years ago, when the Tanza ship arrived at the western port of the Kingdom of Elland, the difference in force and technology between the two countries was certainly clear. Both the number of gunpowder weapons and the number of soldiers possessed by the Kingdom of Elland were not far from the Stanza Empire, nor were the industrial technologies that underpinned them.... until about ninety years ago.
(Especially since the Stanza Empire at the time was not trying to hide its intention to invade the Kingdom of Elland. So it's not too sweet for the Elgrand Royal Family to take no action.)
Faced with a policy of friendship with the outside world, King Elgrand secretly and quickly sent agents to "steal" the high technology of the surrounding countries. --And...
(As soon as possible, the technology of the Kingdom of Elgrand helped keep the Stanza Empire apart... by giving the Kresters some of the kingdom's best mining zones and entrusting them with R&D.)
Located in the northern part of the peninsula, the Gantt Gear Special Area is littered with rocks and barely grows crops, and people earn their living by mining ores and so on. Due to heavy labor, some mining sites are used as prisons for criminals and are very difficult to treat.
The Crester family owns a land that is difficult to handle and geographically distant from its home, for example to excavate materials in one place, research and development of new technologies and high-performance weapons… Generally speaking, some of the Gantt Gear Special Areas are now developing into a major R&D city that brings together leading minds and skilled craftsmen from all fields that the Kingdom boasts. Wang Metropolitan's academy has focused on its role as an educational institution that will cultivate talented people of the future, relocating places to Gantt Gear Special Areas for hands-on, state-of-the-art technical research.
From the outside, it would seem that the Kingdom of Elland is circulating without concealing its national circumstances. --And that's not wrong. Neither the majority of the people nor the aristocrats dream that their country's technology has undergone remarkable development in the past 90 years. To the extent that they feel influenced by the Stanza Empire and other countries across the mountain, and elevated to "neighboring countries".
To deceive the enemy, first of all, from their allies - and in accordance with that spirit, the successive Kings of Elgrand and Count Crester have kept the Gantt Gear Special Zone's technological development district thoroughly secret and have always been prepared to ensure that the country and the people can be protected when they need it.
Ninety years later, the technological level of the Kingdom of Elland has reached a far higher level than that of the Stanza Empire. If there is a slight difference between the number of weapons and the strength, it can be covered by the specs of the weapon itself. I was lucky enough to acquire and investigate Stanza's latest weapons during the "Return to Home", but I was able to be confident that progress on the Elgrand side would remain favorable, as Stanza's technology has stagnated for the past 20 years or so.
In view of the current situation, where one or two mines have now been found in the Stanza Empire, there is an unlimited risk that the national power difference with the Kingdom of Elgrand will turn upside down.... in the first place, there are fewer stanzas in operation than the mine itself, Elgrand. Few people know the location and amount of mines in the Kingdom of Elland because they are highly confidential.
"... well, I guess it's really okay for Dee to decide that she's okay. Mines are the kind of whitewheels you can find?
--Without asking for more details, Kai, who realized that the mines of the Stanza Empire were not dangerous for the Kingdom of Elland just by Diana's gesture, proceeded to speak more concretely. Asked by him, Diana shook her head vertically.
"Somehow. I'm expecting it to be around here."
"... you feel like you're being taught by your usual" voice "?
"It's not as easy to understand as Elgrand. If you look for a place where plants that hate iron avoid it, you'll probably know where the iron mine is."
"Dee's 'that' is very versatile to the taste."
Really?... in the sense that you can find the way of the earth while dragging it down, maybe. "
That's why the legendary "Princess of the Forest" also searched for the state of the remote land while in the forest of Crester, and finally realized that they could perform accurate spirituality (spirituality).... when I was opaque about what kind of power I had, I didn't think I had the same spiritual power (spirals) in me as the "Princess of the Forest" that appeared in my legacy. By consciously listening to everyone's "voice" and feeling "life", you can realize that the earth that you can grasp is spreading day by day. With a little more practice, you may be able to grasp not only the plants that are rooted in the earth, but also the details of the "life" that lives and moves on it.
― ― After such a conversation, Kai contacted Sola using the "distant tale" spell, consulted with Dualis and Voltz about "Operation Grant", and while getting Juke's permission, Diana studied "Grant" in the university library, confirming the existence of a subordinate who was handed down a side chamber by the Emperor with few but non-martial arts achievements. He was convinced that the "gift" could be made if the emperor cited his achievements, and after refilling the details of the solution, entrusted Kai with connecting with Brad.
- My name is Brad. No, no, it's not a big deal. No one could have imagined that there was such a huge iron mountain in our country. Well done, I found it.
Ha... Thank you very much.
Instead, Blood is working for Stanza's heroes. Some of them have a half-baked attitude, but it doesn't change that they work hard. The Kizuna region, where Brad found the mine, was considered a barren area of poor, rock-skinned mountains, especially in the hard-to-grow Stanza Empire. Since it turned into a treasure mountain overnight, it is only natural that the upper echelons, such as the emperor, should be filled with joy.
Diana's eyes are slightly distant as she takes her time to pick fruit in the corner of a lavish feast.
(... to tell the truth, the land of the Stanza Empire is not suitable for farming, but it is rich in subterranean resources. This time, we narrowed it down to an iron mine that is easy to understand with an emphasis on speed, but there are other signs that it might be possible)
The Stanza Empire is not a barren land. However, the people who live on it have not yet realized how to relate to the earth at their feet. At any time, the Stanza Empire can shift from a way of life taken from someone to a way of life brought to life by the grace of the earth.
(I hope that someone close to the eyes of the Stanza will discover the potential of the earth at his feet in this deposit discovery.....)
When a mine is discovered, it is accompanied by jobs such as mining, ironmaking, processing, and selling finished products. If used well, it could also create stable jobs. If employment is stabilized and people's livelihoods are raised overall, the country's finances will also be stabilized without exploiting heavy taxes from the poor. Enriching the lives of the people will in the long run lead to the richness of the country itself.
(... after all, I'm just an exotic person, and I know if it was a seed to sow. I guess we'll have to leave this to Lord Brad and Lord Exhiga.)
Lifted by unknown figures, Diana returned to observing the whole banquet, turning into air as she caught Brad laughing uncomfortably at the edge of her eyes.
(Still... I'm really glad the solution rolled so far)
--The biggest difficulty of this operation is not the discovery of the iron mine, but rather its aftermath. We were in the process of getting our hands on the mine discovery properly recognized as belonging to Brad. When Kai, who was given the tips of finding the deposit by Dualis, took a map from Deanna showing the general location of the mine, it was almost certain that the mine would be found. From the beginning, I wasn't really worried about finding out.
There was no time, so the specific way to get Brad to report to the Imperial Palace as the discoverer was to throw a round at Kai and Brad himself, but it seems that they held the place that should be held down properly. From the mouth of one of the great men of the Kizuna region, I sent Brad to the palace as the discoverer to report the discovery of the mine. It was only a bet that the top of Ifthane believed in the good news and either admitted Brad, an unknown soldier, as a meritorious man, but apparently the mine was a truly precious thing for the present Stanza Empire, and Brad's name went up safely to the Emperor to be recognized for his service.
After that, to what extent will the Emperor appreciate this merit?
- Gorn!
The metal bell in the corner of the hall echoed a loud sound. As if the Emperor were to appear, all the people attending the feast would bow to their seats and worship.
When the finish of the bell disappeared, the emperor, dressed in a glorious costume, appeared majestically from behind the curtain.... I haven't seen her face since the first day, so it's been a long time for Diana.
Diana's seat is barely in the upper seat, but rather in the corner of the hall. I'm no longer surprised or stunned to be harassed by all these people while talking about a farewell banquet... but it's a bit difficult to observe a little further from His Majesty the Emperor.
Diana calmed her mind consciously, sharpened all her senses as well as her eyes and ears, sharpened her spiritual strength (spirals) so that she could feel the signs of life, and watched her movements.
(― Ah Lee?
The moment you let go of your spiritual powers (spirals), a slight discomfort pierces your chest.
But before he could find out what that discomfort was, His Majesty the Emperor, who sat down in the chair, raised his voice.
Soldier Blood, come here.
Yee-hah!
With a nervous look, Brad walks through the middle of the hall and kneels before the Emperor.
Face up.
Ha.
... hmm, that's a nice face. This time, you discovered a precious iron mountain for our country.
Your Majesty's words are most honorable.
Why did you stare at a barren area like Kizuna with a pile of iron?
... that's the question I expected. Of course, there is a reason why it is not unnatural.
Brad also seemed to be relieved of his tension and opened his mouth more magnificently in the eyes of the Emperor.
Well, actually, before I became a soldier, I worked for a botanist.
Ho. Botanics.
To the left. The teacher always said, "There is a good reason for the earth to hate grass and trees." Even after I became a soldier, I kept my teacher's words in my chest, and when I went to the land where the plants did not grow, I was investigating the cause… this time, I discovered the Mountain of Iron.
... I see. Your inexorable path of inquiry has led us to the next task.
Brad looked a little more complicated to the emperor, who seemed convinced. Though Brad's story of Dr. Tebaran is not a lie, it is a fabrication that Brad, who became a soldier, has been looking all over the place.... it seems that Brad is basically not very good at lying.
The emperor, who nodded several times about Brad, looked down on him again.
Soldier Blood. Your work this time is very beneficial to our country. Therefore, it is an exception, but I will raise your rank in the army, and give you a family name.
Thank you for your words.
I would like to reward you as emperor for... guiding the new dawn of the Empire. - Soldier Blood, what do you want?
- Here it is.
Blood, the native Stanza, can't help but notice the "flow" Diana perceived.
With a majestic look up, Brad lighted his black eyes with a sincere light and declared.
Yes, Your Majesty. I am afraid to say so. --Please, I'd like to give you a side room, Mr. Alciolene Baloon.
Roughness.
The quiet hall shook for a moment, and there was a sound of the dishes cracking in the back.... that's where the Baloon family is now. Looks like Rhea's uncle, Arsiolene's adoptive father.
Behind the restless hall, the Emperor looks down on Brad with an interesting look.
Ho, I want an Alciolene. Did you start somewhere?
... from the moment Alciolaine-sama was born, I swore to live my life together.
I see.... so young.
Please, Your Majesty. I want you to meet my wife, Mr. Arsiolene. When this ambition is fulfilled, I will worship only one person as a goddess and protect her as much as I can, so please!
Blood bows deeply, vowing his sincere wish. It was such a powerful vow that everyone had to be convinced that Brad's thoughts were real.
The hall that sways deliberately, but nobody moves, is just waiting for His Majesty's answer.
After counting the silences for a while, the emperor slowly raised his face.
... good.
Side room, hand over Alciolene Barloon as Soldier Blood's wife. --Get a family name, get a wife, and continue to be the owner of the family, as a pillar to support the country.
Your Majesty…… Thank you very much for your generosity. For the rest of my life, I will do this for His Majesty and for the Empire of Stanza. "
(Achieved-!)
Right now, in front of Diana.
The old "gift system" was revived, and the handover of Alciolene was decided.
This is also historic for the Stanza Empire.
Please wait, Your Majesty!
The moment the hall was dyed with signs of blessing, the objection echoed from the area where the sound had been properly heard earlier. The stranger, who split the plate too much, came out into the middle of the hall like the Lord of Baloon rolled.... I see, if it's just around the eyes, it doesn't look like Rhea.
I apologize with awe. If Alciolene is with a daughter who grew up with hand salt in order to give it to His Majesty... I don't want to be forgiven but to give it to a lowlife without identity or name like this. "
Hoohoo... Baloon, did you say that you found a giant iron mountain that would be beneficial to our country?
No, that's not true!
Brad became a person with identity and name in his current job. As a descendant, I am not a man of inferiority.
No... but you must feel the supreme honor of serving His Majesty with Alciolene. It is too pitiful as a parent to be rewarded by a man who has no identity or name in a place unknown to him.
... when I saw Chris's brother, I wondered why the child's "qualities" were so different when he inherited the blood of the same parent. Rhea's mother, Dora, and the Emperor's warm man over there are supposed to be real brothers and sisters, but Dora's human qualities are overwhelmingly higher.
His Majesty will remain silent for a moment, as Lord Barloon has said.
I understand the kindness of those who think of their daughter. Then I'll ask him if he's going to marry me.
Ha......?
- Bring Alciolane here!
The door of the hall opens with the voice of the emperor as a sign. Beyond the hugely open door...
(Mr. Lane?
I was wearing a simple black robe, but it was definitely a sign.... Arsiolene stood in a side room that would not have exited the rear shrine (Halem) if nothing had happened.
Multiple question marks dance behind Diana's head.
(It's quite a distance from the rear palace to this hall, isn't it? If Lord Brad had asked His Majesty for a favor, he'd never make it, would he? Does this mean that from the outset, His Majesty was convinced that Lord Brad wanted Lord Lane as a reward and kept her waiting in a nearby room?
If so - when and how did His Majesty know Brad's purpose? He seemed to have carried his feet to the rear palace (Halem) almost every night, but Alciolene was supposed to have been left alone at a questionable level as to whether he was aware of it.
(This could be...)
One event becomes a call for water, and the "hypothesis" in Diana rapidly emerges. Diana knew in her rules of thumb that the "hypothesis" led by this feeling was almost "true", even though there was no evidence. --What the "Wise Eye of the Wise" sees will never come off.
While Diana was being manipulated by her uncontrollable quick comprehension abilities, Archiolene walked quietly into the middle of the hall and gently thanked her stepfather, Lord Barloon, a few steps behind her.
It is in Alciolene Barloon. I followed your call and just arrived.
Hmm....... Alciolene, nobody else called you. I'm telling you about my bride now.
In the words of His Majesty the Emperor, Archiolene does not move. He listens to the Emperor with his most respectful gesture.
The descendant is a soldier named Brad, who has done a good job for the Stanza Empire this time. It has already been decided that you will be given a status and a name commensurate with the greatness of your achievements.
... yes
But... I know it's pitiful for your father to be handed over from the side chamber without telling you. As soon as I asked you to confirm your intentions.
……
Alciolene's body does not move. It solidified like a statue - but Diana found out why there was a deep conflict with Archiolene.... here is her deep conflict that if you state your "will" as it is in front of the Lord of Baloon, you don't know what will happen to Dr. Tebaran.
Still... in Diana's current position, we can only watch Alciolene's decision.
― ― The voice of the Emperor echoes in a large hall surrounded by silence.
Raise your face, Alciolene. Forgive me for answering.
…………… Yes
Just one word. The voice of Archiolene, who answered the emperor, was prepared with great readiness.... the last day I saw her, I honestly confronted Diana without falsifying myself.
Alciolene raised her face.
Thank you very much for your generosity, which respects my will. --Please do not hesitate to accept this demotion.
That's what I told him with a straight eye, not a cloud.
The emperor smiled deeply at the words of Archiolene, and Brad was filled with joy.
Beg your pardon! You know what you're talking about!?
The lord of the Barloon family stood up and crammed into Alciolene with a forgotten look on his face.
With a sudden outburst of parents and children scrambling in the hall, Archiolene looks to the Lord of Baloon without fear.
I know, everything.... but I can't afford to lie to myself any more.
What...
... I've killed my heart so far if I could repay the gratitude for reaching out to our parents and children who lost everything in that fire. But…
Alciolane's gaze is moving and turning towards us. She smiled at Deanna, who normally looked at her.
Far from the familiar homeland, I still struggle with Rin facing forward while being pushed against the reality that is the opposite of the ideal. Not only the ancestral people but also the people of Stanza are deeply concerned, and therefore we sincerely hope for peace and friendship between the two countries and sincerely explore what we can do to you.... because of that kindness, I'm sure you're twice as hurt by the irrationality of the world, but you'll never give up reaching out. "
What are you talking about?
Please meet him. Fear me a lot, give me a lot of words.... until you give me an unexpected hope.
Close your eyes slowly once.
The next time I opened it, the eyes of Archiolene had a strong and beautiful "light". ― ― The pride regained sparkled the dignity that had lived as an "Alciolene".
I see. Even if it is for a loved one, it is the same that the "life" that lies and kills one's heart and lives like this is dead. --Above all, such a way of life makes a "precious person" who should want happiness unhappy. Even an insult to someone who doesn't give up on me and loves me. "
Nah...
Dear Master, I can no longer be the "daughter of Baloon" your master wanted.... from the beginning, I'm sure. No matter how much I killed myself, I couldn't be like that.
... perhaps the present Alciolene is the original Alciolene that is not tied to the Baloon. Try to face everything honestly and head-on. With such strength and courage, the daughter of Stanza.
Stop fooling around!! Thanks to whom Tebaran can continue his research!
... it's a cruel reality to have someone who can reach you and someone who can't.
Blood pushes back the main Baloon player, who is trying to grasp Arsiolane in a fierce way. Her eyes swayed with complexity, as the lovely man she had met for a long time confronted danger.
Blood...
It's okay. - Rene, stay close to me.
With Brad's arms, Barloon's protagonist, who is almost isolated from the battle, has been exposed and won't be able to seize it. Grasp and twist the arm of the main toward me again and seal the movement without any problems.
The emperor, who was bypassing a series of disturbances, is no longer an open dazed face.
... it's Baloon. My daughter seems to want a way to escort soldier Blood. If you're a father, why don't you celebrate your daughter's new exit?
Why, Your Majesty? Why did you give Dora a live copy of Arsiolene?
- Shall we stop now, Fusam?
Suddenly, a new voice sounded in the hall. Even though it is by no means loud or rough, its loud voice beats all the noise and is full of strength to dominate the air of the field in an instant.
With his wand on, he walked slowly, but without hesitation, into the middle of the hall, kneeling before the emperor.
Thank you for your time, Your Majesty. This time, an unfamiliar nephew made a noise.
... it's been a long time. I don't think so. I heard you've been living like a abandoner since you left the palace because you're old?
Ho ho. Your Majesty is tough, unchanged. As I said, I continued to live in a comfortable hideout, but yesterday I was invited by chance by His Royal Highness the Eighteenth Prince. When I stayed overnight, I heard that something important had happened at the Imperial Palace, and I was concerned and accompanied by His Highness.
It won't change. Never miss a serious moment by looking like you're not interested in the world. He called it "The Shadow Warrior of Baloon," and his mind and spirituality are alive.
Ho ho ho. What are you talking about?
... I knew from the signs that the Barloon Ones were accompanying me, but I didn't think it was enough to cheerfully communicate with the Emperor. You can't be blamed for showing your face at a banquet you didn't call, you have so much track record and presence.
Having finished his greeting to the Emperor, the Barloon Ones once again turn to the Lord who is sealed off by Brad.
It's Fusam. Don't defame Baloon too much.
Uncle ~!
Alciolane, is that it? I have heard about the adoption of the daughter.... you did something stupid.
…… Speaking of which, isn't it because of my uncle? His father was hesitant to let Dora go, but his uncle convinced him to marry Dora to a weak country like Elgrand, in partnership with his mother. That prevented Dora from receiving the honor of the side chamber!
How many times do I have to tell you? The era when raising my daughter to the rear palace (Harem) became the prosperity of the house is no longer the past. You have no idea how much the Valloons were saved by Dora's marriage to the Stressians. "
Something like that! Compared to the throne of the Queen of Stanza, it's worth nothing!
I can't help it.... it's just a dream for you. Though Dora went up to the rear palace, she did not visit the future to be queen.
Even so... let Dora be married to such an unfinished and barbaric lowlife.
It wasn't Dora herself who wanted it. --Fusam, it's not the third time. Don't expose yourself too much to the shame of Stanza in the presence of a princess revealed by a quasi-royal, emissary of the Kingdom of Elland. "
... can people express their spectacular anger with such a quiet, warm voice? The whole hall is swallowed, not only by the Baloon lord, but also by the "wonder" that only young people like Deanna can't reach, and only those who live deep and long. The Emperor of the Throne is as plain as the Emperor.
I have to protest Diana's position because she has been so vigorously insulted in front of so many people in the Kingdom of Elgrand, but once or twice, because the Barloon Ones are holding me back before Diana gets angry. --Because people who are old and still have such a strong judgment are entertained by the breathtaking hiding life, I can also understand the feeling of the Emperor who immediately renounced Iyami after reunification.
The Barloon Monk, who silenced the Lord with an overwhelming force that seemed very unlikely to be hidden, sighed with his wand snorting.
... Fusam. Your dreams are nothing but dreams. Not to mention, it wasn't about Dora herself, it wasn't about others with similar faces.
……
Dr. Tebaran is a fine and brilliant man. I have been turning my hands for a long time so that I can continue my research at the university without Baloon's help, lest I become the shackle of Miss Arsiolene.
Er...
Blood nodded in surprise at Alciolane.... actually, I kind of knew Diana, too. Perhaps it was the Barloons who recommended it in the beginning, but Dr. Tebaran is now a must for that plant research building. Even if the Barloons put pressure on you to fire Dr. Tebaran, the university won't nod.
Dr. Tebaran's research and the discovery of Lord Blood will pave the way for a new life for the Stanza Empire in a distant future. --Not only Miss Arsiolene, but also the Barloon family, this marriage is a great honor.
"Uncle, go..."
My body relaxed. Brad let go of his hand, but there's no sign of getting mad anymore.
After staring down at his sworn nephew with pity, Barloon looked back on his body and looked up to the emperor of the throne.
Again, I apologize for seeing such a poor person.... it looks like my nephew is a little tired, so I thought I'd take the time tonight.
Whatever you want.... Baloon, if your head and body aren't decaying yet, look ahead and guide them. It's not just about putting a burden on young people by spoiling their hidden identities.
His Majesty the Emperor, who responds to the lowered Barloon, seemed as funny as usual... and sincerely saddened by the fate of younger generations like Blood and Archiolene. I was sad - it seemed like I was even remorsing somewhere.
……
The moment I first saw the Emperor, the discomfort that stabbed Diana in the chest grew again. Something - "Something" in Diana snorts out.
Well... it seems that we have spoken a little bit, but as a Baloon family, it is okay to say that there is no difference in the handover of Alciolene?
There is no difference.... this is not the first time I've talked to you, Miss Alciolane.
Yes, Mr. Hidden. --Thank you very much for your time.
Thank you very much.
If you are thankful, please tell everyone who guided this "future".... what you've done is not trivial.
The atmosphere of bliss that was shriveling is once again heightened by the fact that the conversation is coming together in the middle of the hall.
His Majesty rose slowly as the participants in the feast took notice.
I will say it again here. ― ― The side room, Alciolene Barloon, is to be handed over as Soldier Blood's wife. The court clerk should arrange for the handover of Alciolene immediately.
Yee-hah.
Boom, boom, boom!
Brad's achievements are acknowledged and the bell honours the award. The hall was cheerful, and Brad and Alciolene cried joyfully and knelt down, watching the two young men calmly - in such a picturesque grand circle.
(Crazy. Crazy...!
Diana's noisy "something" kept complaining about her discomfort so much that she could no longer delude herself.
Why is the Emperor's sign, which was easily felt when he first saw it, sandwiched the door of the hall, so thin and small that he can't tell without sharpening his nerves now?
How come the Emperor can hardly hear the "voice" of "life" clearly heard from the Barloon Ones, whose age should never change?
--If your head and body are not decaying yet, look at the folds ahead and guide your children --
Why did you tell me a word like "will" to entrust the future to the same generation of "comrades"?
(This is....)
Your hands and feet tremble. --It gets heavier.
I remember.... there's no way to forget, huh?
I've been sleeping in Diana forever and ever. You can clearly see it because it contains the spiritual power (spira) that gives life.
...... nh, gh, uu
Hi, how are you?
Ugh!
"Your Majesty!!
His Majesty, who tried to lower his hips to the throne, suddenly pressed his chest and fell down. The appreciating samurai supported the emperor, but he dyed his face with anguish and fell on the spot.
The air in the hall freezes at once.
Your Majesty!
What's wrong...!
Get the doctor now!
My close associates rush out in a hurry, but... I understand.
Diana will understand now.
(The blade of the god of death fell on His Majesty's neck.... I can't help it, not like this.)
In order to give life, we must look at the end of life.
Therefore, the Princess of the Forest feels it. - The signs of "death" are clearer than anyone else in the world. The blade of the god of death is so visionary.
(And... it means that I met his god)
"Something" overflowing from your heart - now, at this moment, Diana's spiritual power (spira) awakened.
"I can see that the spiritual power of legends called miracles (spirals) that protect, nurture and... give life is filling Diana.
Your Majesty!
At the noisy banquet seat, Diana quietly decides on the future.
― ― Stay where the stars lead you.
