The Magician Wants Normality

― ― In an inn with Ghania-san

Virgil, we broke up with you and settled into a house for now. [M]

The last time I came to Ghana, I stayed almost at the castle, so private lodgings don't know my face.

Besides, this is a castle town. There are many traders and so on, so people from other countries don't get suspicious.

So.

I sent you a letter about my accomplice, Rudolph, in order to understand the current situation in Ilfena.

Rudolph is staying in Ilfena as the king of his neighbor, so there is no need to worry about letters and so on. In other words, it is difficult for the Demon King to find out.

Perfect for listening to information. Around Al and Klaus, there's a chance they'll find out quickly!

And the letter from Rudolph came when we finished eating dinner. I had the four of them in the same room, so everyone's eyes focused on the letter at once.

Of course, soundproofing magic has been developed in advance. Just in case, Sieg stops by the door and keeps an eye on the surroundings.

"Now, what does it say?

On behalf of the group, let me read it first. Hehe... well, it seems to have been roughly as expected.

If it were to say here, "King Harvis came to apologize personally," our plan had to be stopped for a while.

Whatever it takes, if a king of a kingdom comes to lower his head, say Ilfena, and be careful. Bucha, you need to do "adult response" (interpretation).

When that happens, it is totally bad for me to go mad. Something that would give the Harvis side useful negotiating material.

"In the meantime, it doesn't seem to stop the plan. Read the letter from Rudolph about what happened."

While saying so, I send a letter to everyone. Did you notice that? The first thing I received was Sail. He thinks of Sail, who is away from the Lord, and neither of them complain.

Sail looked through the letter and distorted his mouth into the form of a smile.

…… Well, I wasn't expecting it. "

"Which is your expectation?

"Of course, 'the Harvis side shows good faith'. If you can do that, you should be able to act quickly from the beginning."

……

Well, I see.

Ilfena must be protesting one or two at once. It was Harvis who was cheating on it, so I'm convinced of Sayle's lack of trust!

I don't know.

Harvis would have been confused, but we should have been able to confirm the facts right away. Nevertheless, the noticeable delay in responding... I don't suppose you really knew what the best course of action was.

Even though there is little information, I feel like I made an effort to gather information this time. It's no wonder we're trying to find a breakthrough from there.

After all, Ilfena is a vigilant country. In addition, His Royal Highness Prince Elsch-on, the Second Prince, who was the victim of the raid, has a noble name.

If a wizard from another world has recently joined us, it might be impossible to be afraid.

Of course, this is only my personal prediction. However, as far as the correspondence so far is concerned, it is natural that this seems to be the correct answer.

……

That's a rude country, Harvis. Ilfena is not that narrow.

Neither I nor the Demon King are stupid enough to talk!

"I don't know, the Messenger is pathetic. This is a sacrifice for gathering information."

Sayle immediately agreed with Abel when he said pity. Me and Sieg also agreed by nodding.

Whoever looks at it will be sacrificed. If this messenger is harmed, it will prove that Ilfena is furious.

With that in mind, we called it "sacrifice." It is a pitiful position to assume all the expectations of a country.

But Ilfena wasn't as gentle as she thought she'd be.

"I didn't expect you to rest the Stunned Messenger and send him back intact. Harvis will no longer know how to deal with Ilfena. I don't know if it was' being nice 'or' being pushed back because it's worthless'."

"You can do both. Besides, Clarence was the deputy chief of the Knights Corps. I can also accept that you have treated me fairly well."

"Well... only if you see who you are and where you stand."

That's right.

Together, Abel pointed his eyes toward the letter. Ilfena seems to be playing inside.

"The Duke's Human Beings as Deputy Knight Commander" guided him as a guardian, so "he despised the messenger from the country."

However, it is only a premise that it is "limited to status and position".

We know. Clarence is called "The Poisonous Couple's One Crack," or "Kintetsu's Onion."

Beyond being guided by such a person, it is a soft and polite attitude and words that will distract the other person's mind.

"In addition to that, Mizuki's 'friends' talked a lot. The Messenger will have been incited to fear."

"No, no, Sieg? 'Cause everybody's just telling the truth, hiding something inconvenient for their country'? I don't think you're overstating your official messenger from the country.

"So it's worse than that."

If I stick it in, I'll give it back to Siegfried.... hey, what are the other two nodding about!?

Looking at her gaily eyes, Sayle turned to her gentle eyes and said, "I can't help it."

"Mizuki, don't you think you're too much trouble? And you're the only one who wants results. Many of the means to do this are inevitable. I would be desperate if you told me that you were going to 'retaliate against Harvis' after all this talk about your bad personality and your persistence."

"Even nobles and royalties get a lot of dust if you slap them! It's rare to have a good personality!

"Politics is not built on beauty alone. I wonder why you're so happy that you don't have to. Definitely includes personal emotions, right?

……

……

"... if it's all right, it's all right."

"It's too much for you!

Abel interrupted our conversation with an innocent smile and agreed. Damn right... I don't have an ally!

"Well, as long as Ilfena doesn't say 'stop retaliation', it doesn't matter."

Shut up, this is the most important thing. The letter from Rudolph doesn't say anything like that, so I don't suppose the Devil King or Clarence is willing to stop me.

Or rather, in the case of the Demon King, it is correct to say, "Even if you want to stop it, there is no way to stop it."

Again and again, Rudolph is on my side this time... which means, "Retaliation against Harvis? It is a policy called" big push, recommendation ".

I must be keeping a secret that I can exchange letters because I don't feel like stopping them.

I really don't know anything about the Knights Dormitory, so there's nothing wrong with being searched for. Cecil and the others are suspicious, but since we cannot doubt the royalties and nobles of other countries without evidence, we will not fight them.

The most suspect, undoubtedly, is the gray cat, His Highness Suanze. Glenn and I predicted in the next point. However, this is also to be expected, and the true destiny of Fake may be His Highness Suanze.

I expected a stop from the Demon King and asked him to deceive me, but he nodded happily... Ning Ro, fortunately for what he suspected, he was full of willingness to tease the Demon King with words and attitude.

I got you, grey cat!

Rudolph will give you a sermon from the Demon King, and we'll take it together!

"Hmm? Does that mean Mizuki isn't mad at Harvis' attitude?

"Yeah, I didn't expect it from you."

Sieg seems surprised. Abel looked at me surprisingly, as he thought.

... but only Sail felt bitter with a convincing face.

"... because Rudolph-sama seems to be having fun, right?

"What?

"Until now, I've only been answering your messages. This time, Rudolph is a true accomplice to Mizuki."

See, Sail pointed to it in a letter from Rudolph. From that sentence, I can easily think of a pleasant Rudolph.

It seems that the messenger from Harvis listened to Mizuki's friends before the discussion, guided by Clarence.

Clarence said, [I thought it would be better to know a little about the wizard], but it's definitely a lie. No matter what you think, you just planted fear in advance. "

It seems that Mizuki's work has come to the fore as a result of his fainting speech, even though it includes shame on his own country. You've been promoted to the subject of fear. "

"And nobody denies it. Elsch-On might have followed us, but Clarence was with the Messenger. At this point, you'll see that it's just incitement."

At the time before the discussion, the Messenger's complexion was very bad. I was there, but I gave up all my seats to Elsch-on, so I only joined for the last time. "

Me, bystander. Very bystander. Even Harvis' messenger didn't give a damn about my presence until he finally spoke. But Elsch-on wanted to say that his all-you-can-eat parent cat was full of guts, so it was super fun ♪ "

Elsch-on was always frustrated that you ran away without saying anything. Of course, the intimidation is completely uncontrollable. Or so to say, I didn't feel like suppressing it from the beginning. "

Elsch-on, excitement. I'm enjoying watching. Messenger, Elsch-on's intimidation and mood are pale, as is the inexplicable situation of Harvis. Glenn and Serian looked at Elsch-on and the others with the expression they had reached. "

Yet, Elsch-on's [my child, you ran away!] is today's stray (* not typographical) dialogue. The Messenger was naturally confused by the words spoken as a matter of course. Others left Elsheon's strange behavior with warm, raw eyes. "

'Well, Elsch-on was angriest when you ran away. To be clear, the Apostle was only hit eight times. And with a punitive game that says you have to report it to your country. "

How pathetic, how pathetic, how pathetic! I thought it was, but it was even more interesting. Harvis, come on! You're so confused!

"Ah, I finally stabbed him."

They seem to be tasting Zebrest, but this is still the king of one kingdom. I have to protest...! I also introduced you to [Elshon's only nostalgic, fierce black cat is after Harvis] and declared [I will not stop Mizuki]. "

In a formal discussion, it's a king's word. Elsch-on had blood on his head from the beginning, and I knew it and blocked the escape route. In other words, there is no one who can stop the wizard anymore!

The Messenger passed out? When will Harvis realize that?

This is an extract from Rudolph's letter. Rudolph seemed to have listened to the conversation with great pleasure in terms of 'being a bystander'.

As you can see from reading this, Rudolph is inciting, but there is no sign of stopping. Just pretending to give information and pushing further.

You look like you're having fun, best friend.

I'm just a little sorry I couldn't be there...!

Oh, sure.

Rudolph-sama, this is so much fun.

"It's been a long time since I left you a message. You knew there was nothing you could do from the standpoint, but I wanted to play with Mizuki with Rudolph-sama."

Sieg with a convincing expression, Abel with a subtle expression, Sail with whom the Lord seems to be enjoying himself.

Nobody cares about Harvis' messenger. The elves say, "Devil King, you're falling apart," and "Rudolph, it seems super fun. That's great!" Feelings are just about right.

... concern for sacrificial messengers? Hey, that sort of thing.

"Well, now we can move as planned. Let's go tomorrow, shall we?

Now, let's build a legend of fear on Harvis?
