In this way, we have completed the dungeon search requested by Ryoma.

He must also go to Bernese, the maritime city he promised, where he must save the crisis.

It was a promise between Ryoma Sakamoto and his wife, and an oath with Ryoma. However, I am a demon king. He is also the ruler of several cities. I couldn't leave the castle forever. So we decide to split into two.

I and Eve return to Ashtaroth Castle first, and then go to Bernese, after removing the castle's worries.

Meanwhile, Ryoma had to return to Bernese with Jeanne to collect information.

Bernese's crisis stems from a ghost ship blocking the route, but behind it is apparently also part of the faction battle of the Council in Bernese.

Ryoma affirms that the city will not come to peace unless it is resolved at the same time.

"The villains who came before dive into the dungeon were sent by political enemies."

Eve summarizes the situation. Ryoma nods.

"Then it is correct to attach Jeanne to the escort. If Jeanne is by the side, no assassin will come."

"That's right!"

Says Jeanne, who, on the side of Ryoma, listens to her.

"--Jean is strong, but he is vulnerable during meals. Be careful."

Upon hearing that, Ryoma smiled bitterly and boarded his carriage to get it right. Jeanne is sitting behind the carriage and waving here. She was waving all the way until we disappeared.

When he and Ryoma leave, they hurry back to Ashtaroth Castle.

According to Kotaro Fuma, there are no signs that enemies will attack, but Ashtaroto Castle had a lot of problems while I was away.

First is the food issue.

A few months after the people of Savannak's castle arrived at Ashtaroto Castle, not only they but also the residents of the surrounding area gathered in this castle town.

He told me that the Dwarves on the soil were living happily, and other people began to gather. Naturally, agricultural productivity will become tight.

Of course, four-wheeled farming and land reclamation are raising the output, but that number only appears six months later.

In that case, food must be imported and soar. Inhabitants of Ashtaroto Castle since ancient times seem to be dissatisfied. Some say that there is a movement to repel new residents.

Skilled workers gathered from all over the country, but I didn't want to make my living uncomfortable because of such clogging.

Upon receiving the report in the office, Dwarf Godleab asked.

"Well, I would like you to solve this problem before heading to Bernese, Bernese."

"I know it"

Answer.

"But this problem can be solved if we go to Bernese and import abundant food from the south."

"Maybe, but what the people want is tomorrow's bread. The meat of tomorrow is important, but what is needed now is tomorrow."

"I guess. For the time being, we will arrest vicious merchants who are illegally stockpiling food and manipulating prices, just in case."

"I see, is this soaring not only a matter of population but also of human greed?"

"That's what. Everywhere in the world, merchants are stockpiling a lot, shouting out for food shortages."

Eve hears the statement and bows down.

"These are the evil merchants listed by Kobold Ninja Hanzo."

And prepare the documents. Indeed Eve. I have what I want in advance. Thankfully, GodLeave is surprised at the list.

"Sometimes such a list"

"We anticipated that such a merchant would increase due to the rapid population growth. We had asked Hanzou to investigate before leaving for Savannak Castle."

"It's amazing, it's a god of spirit"

"It's not that far."

When humbled, he calls Toshizo Hijikata.

This kind of unscrupulous merchant is armed with hijacking. The investigation and seizure was required to be devastating.

He told him about it, and he was not afraid. No, on the contrary, they are lifting and raising their tension.

"While my husband was absent, I was running around for security all the time. Guiding drunks, being alert for piss, arresting snatchers, and being honest, none was exciting."

"Is it more fun when I was at Shinsengumi?"

"Well, every day was exciting at that time. I thought that it might be cut tomorrow, and I couldn't help but sip on my daily sake.

"This investigation and seizure will be as thrilling."

"Oh, I remember Ikedaya."

"Ikedaya?"

It was Eve who shook his head. She lacks Japanese knowledge.

"Ikedaya is the name of a ryokan in Kyoto at the end of the Tokugawa period in Japan. Is the incident that occurred there more famous than the inn itself?"

"Is it an incident?"

"Oh, this is the case. At the end of the Tokugawa period, the insurgents who plan to defeat Japan are planning to set fire to the city. Shinsengumi's director, Isamu Kondo, who found it, boarded Ikedaya with a slight hand and I took down nine and captured four. "

"it's great"

"That's amazing. There were more than 20 insurgents, but Isamu Kondo stepped down and crushed it with just four people."

"Well, it looks like a story."

A cool Eve is unusually excited. He looks at Hijikata with his respect, but he seems to be a little annoying. When he wonders why, Hijikata leaks out with a stupid look.

"... I'm not in Ikedaya."

Speaking of which, I remember.

In the Ikedaya case, the director of the Shinsengumi boarded up with only four people and defeated the insidious villain, but his name was made.But at that time, the four people who boarded the Ikedaya were the director, Isamu Kondo, the first corps I remember that the captain was Soji Okita, the second captain was Shinpachi Nagakura and Heisuke Todo. At that time, Hijikata was led by a separate squadron and danced to disinformation.

As a man born to slash people, he would not be able to participate in a flashy catch like Ikedaya, which would be a shame.

It can be easily imagined by looking at the expression on this occasion. I felt sorry and decided not to touch Ikedaya any more. It was my destiny that I could not participate in Ikedaya.

Instead, I hit the shoulders of Toshizo to be more active than Kondo in the Ikedaya case in this different world.

He probably understood me. When he regains his confident look, he calls his subordinate. About 20 of them are all masters of swords.

"They aren't as good as the Shinsengumi, but they're still well trained."

And boast. Toshizo mainly had demons in charge, so there were many goblin and orc swordsmen. They all look like strong fighters.

Toshizo chose three more of them, the strong ones, appointed them as captains, and four of them boarded into the vicious merchant.

Toshizo used a tone like Shinsengumi when he got on the board, saying, "It's a new order!"

Ride-on, or the like, was the deputy director of a demon from the past.

"This has no curtain for me."

I returned to my office alone, pointing to Godlieb and chess, and waited for Hijikata to add Tenchu to all the evil merchants.
