"Are you tired, Jeanne?"

Ray Karen's Mansion.

A mansion in the castle where you can feel the novelty. I will return a word from you to Sail, who cares for me as I look forward to it.

After leaving Lieutenant Eric's house, there was an unexpected distance to Ray's house. Even though it is the same castle, without the carriage, school would be a few steps away.

The mansion, which was off the royal capital, was truly worthy of the words "separate mansion". Although it is obviously more lavish than the houses of ordinary people, it is a small mansion for the nobility. I have the impression that Ray was bought to go to school entirely.

This time, we only visited as ordinary people, so we tried our best to visit on foot, but I think we ended up walking a very unusual long distance. It was really good to have more health than people in Las Vegas Cheeto. At least farther than the Farnham brothers or Nate's. Although the road was just a paved boulevard, I felt like I was walking too far because I even walked the horizon.

As for going out, as a survey about the prediction of the school, I asked my mother to allow me to go out and escort the knights in secret if I was Jeanne.

Arthur and Steyl, who cared for me, clutched their hands and stepped forward, finally capturing the Mansion in sight.... Ray's home on the same outer layer that Amlet visited in the game.

"Really... that's good." It looks like Keith isn't with us either. "

Lieutenant Erik was worried, but in response to Arthur's words, Stale laughed a little too.

Despite the holidays, we rented Lieutenant Eric's house again, and we met Mr. Keith, who was about to go to work this morning. This time, Vice Captain Eric was absent, and instead, Vice Captain Harrison was waiting near the house.

Whether it was the effect of the hostage's notebook or because he was busy at work, this time Keith didn't invite him to show him around the castle either. After he only asked if his grandfather had asked him to shop in the capital, he went to work.

According to the story, she went home last night and this time she didn't come back for a couple of days and slept at work. It seems that the printing equipment is broken and the repair work is stuck, and I have to sell newspapers at the same time as the coverage, so I am busy. The word carriage-like busyness is worthy. She gently stroked my head and sent it out so as not to break my hair.... somehow I'm worried about when Keith will be asleep.

"It's strange that there's only one guard." What do you think, Jack? "

"... I don't feel like I'm hiding outside." If you're here, you're in the Mansion. "

As they approached, Stale and Arthur checked each other out as they hid.

It is only natural that the two of them should think it strange. In the provinces, there are still basically hired guards in the noble and senior mansions under the castle. Even in a mansion like this, it is not strange to count with one hand. Nevertheless, there is only one person out there, and it will seem like a trap for us to know we are coming here.... well, there are cases like Chancellor Jilbert in a bigger mansion. But in his case, it certainly wasn't.

"... first of all, I'd like to see your eyes."

As I approached the guard who was staring at me, I hid my voice even more.

Judging by his appearance, he is at least a guard who is really hired by ordinary guards. When we stop at the moment, I can't feel the hostility in my eyebrows.

Hello, and we greeted each other in a joint voice. Steyl represented me by telling me that we were students of Pradestone and that we came to see Ray.

"... so could you give me a look? If you want to talk about" Lyre ", I think you'll understand."

Piking, the guard's shoulders shook at that moment.

I looked at Arthur's face as if I were checking him one by one with a smile on my face. He looked at us with the same rolling eyes as before, as if he was checking something out. Apparently, he knows that Ray is looking for Rhea.

The guards, who looked at us silently many times, left behind the gate, just telling them to wait here for a moment.

Thanks to the fact that the mansion was not far from the gate, I could see the back of the mansion, which was a few meters away from the fence of the gate, opening the door of the mansion and talking to someone from that spot. He was the only one out there, even though he didn't want a replacement.

After just talking for a while, the guard who was still waiting in front of the door said that he was behind the gap when the door opened again from the inside. Maybe it was Ray or something.... and perhaps he invites us into the Mansion.

Normally, a child who is suspicious at first sight and somehow knows the location of his or her own house is a good place to pay for the remnants of the gate. But now that I've named [Ryer], I'm sure he won't. I can be sure of that. It may be troublesome, but I can't just pay at the gate.

"Alright, get through. Straight through the front door." If you knock, the maid will open. "

The return of the guards was as expected.

The fence that serves as the gate is opened, and the three of us pass through. Standing in front of the doors of the mansion on a path that stretches straight from the grass to the left and right. Even though it is a separate house, it is smaller than the residence of Prime Minister Jilbert. Well, apart from the servants, "If it's a house for just one person, then this is natural for any house."

Conkon and Arthur slammed the door with their fists. The maid who had been waiting for me immediately greeted me by opening the door from the inside. Welcome, and guide us to the upstairs guest room so that we can bow our heads and flow.

"Please relax here." Lady Ray and I will be here soon. "

"Oh, excuse me. Can I open the window? It's a little hot."

In response to Arthur's words, which were uttered a little louder, the maid opened the window of the room, saying, "Excuse me."

In the worst case scenario, check the window with your eyes that's big enough to get out of here and secure the path of the struggle. Arthur and I, of course, but Steyl and his fourteen-year-old physical abilities will do just about anything about the height of the second floor. I had Arthur take it as a last resort.

The rooms were well furnished, but the floor plan was simple.

There are three sofas for one person, six in total, and a table in between. Thinking that the table was a little wide enough, we may have rushed to add two sofas to suit our visit.

The open windows and heavy curtains sway, giving the impression that the room is used for a secret transaction rather than a guest room.... Actually, we have a stronger impression of Ray. He's not a customer, he's a business partner.

"It was lighter than I thought." I wonder if Ray will really come after this. ”

"If it's the first time, run quickly." Jeanne, that's all I ask. ”

Arthur slightly strains his nerves to the stele that looks around the room.

All right, I'll give it back, but my shoulders are too tight. At this moment, we are all aware of the enemy base.

Yesterday, I told Steyl and the others everything I could about Ray's game settings in the form of [prediction]. Thanks to that, both of them were alert to Ray's opponent in the right way.

Not only the curtains, but also the fact that everything from the carpet to this sofa is made of heavy fabric is a warning of personal danger. But if I did, I could have secured a way out, as well as Stale and Arthur. I managed to stop it by just sneezing my throat without sweating cold.

I sat in the middle, and a while after Steyl and Arthur had hung up on both sides to protect my left and right, the same maid prepared a cup of tea for each trolley.

They poured it out of the pot in the room and lined it up in front of us, but I don't feel like talking to all three of them. She smiled and thanked the maid who was leaving the room again, and kept watching the cup rise in steam.

The fragrance didn't seem to contain any poison, but the opponent was Ray and I didn't lose my temper. I know better than anyone that I played with in my previous life that he doesn't choose his means. I thought about sneaking it out of the window, but if it was a quick-acting product, I would quickly find out if I didn't drink it, so it would be best if I didn't put my hands on it.

Would you like to change it to mine?

"No, Jeanne is still the least vigilant among them." You're in better shape, so it's dangerous. "

"But you were the one who spoke directly to me in Rhea's name."

Arthur and Steel muttered their cups to each other.

Arthur, who seems to be the strongest of us at the moment, or Stale, who named Rhea, seems to be on the alert.

I felt that Stale was more likely to be targeted, but I didn't want to exchange the cup with Arthur. "In the worst case, we can do something about it!" "I understand his words, but Arthur still wants to prioritize a safe cup as a knight." I'm worried that both of you will pinch your cup too much and keep breaking it.

I watched, worried that my voice would not leak, and they shut their mouths.

Stop the cups and grind the nerves across the door. At the same time as they were weird, my shoulders were slightly shaken. I can clearly feel several footsteps approaching the front of the room while hiding behind the door.

Have you arrived? Behave unaware, Arthur and Steil are hiding their voices even more, and only their eyes sharpen. A thin overwhelming aura of concealment overflowed from both of them, cooling my feet.

Without a knock, the door finally opens.

Suddenly, the sound of holding each other's breath was the only sound that could be suddenly struck by an ambush. Ray was definitely the target of the tactic when he let in the footsteps from the door that was opened without hesitation.

The door that seemed to have been opened only for one person was quietly closed with patari when he passed through. He didn't seem to intend to introduce us to multiple signs yet, but he stood in front of the door without showing a single glance. Looking at the numbers, it didn't seem like Ray's squire was the only one.

"If you have a request, just say it."

There was no way to say hello, and the young man who dropped his hips roughly on the opposite sofa rudely released the book in one hand onto the table.

The surface of our cup shakes and jumps round.

The target of the second strategy.

Wavy jade hair. Like King Lance, I wash my hair behind my forehead, but it looks completely different from the shaky impression of my hair tip. Her eyes were purple and dark blue.

Even in the mansion, there is a heavy fabric clothing from top to bottom, and the echoing low voice is full of elements that captivate women.

Obviously, it's not just the facial appearance that makes it easy to understand when you're a character in a maiden game. An artistic mask that hides only the left half of its tidy face. Both eyes, mouth and chin are visible, but there is no gap from the left forehead to the cheek on the high nose.

Even at school, Ray wore it as it is. Even though his expression was only visible on the right half of the face, his grumpy expression and stubborn attitude clearly conveyed. No matter where he looked, he was the target of Kimihika's attack.... and above all...

“We're sorry for the sudden visit. My name is Jeanne."

"Listen, I'm talking to that brunette over there. Wildcats, shut up or go home."

Having been brilliantly greeted and introduced, I closed my mouth with my head hardened as I tried to lower.

With his jade hair on his ears, he turns back in a frivolous manner. This attitude, this rhetoric, this is exactly the same as the game Ray, and it matches the memory of his previous life.

I felt a cold sign from the left and right seats, and if I only raised my eyes, Steil and Arthur's gaze would have fallen sooner. Indeed, even if the opponent is not a royal family, this is rude, but...

However, if I stand up so blindly, I will dry my throat by myself. It's only three years before the game starts. Even if it is formed by this kind of personality, it can't be helped. Because he's a game.

"This [me] made time on purpose." Don't waste a second of your time. "

It was my only position of authority, and I was a bad character.

After the first work, the second royal route is also my character with a different lineage. In other words, it was the first Cedric position. And if you look at it this way, you'll be convinced that he's still the ray of the game. The childhood figure in the recollection scene was cute enough to be called a beautiful girl, but now I don't know if it is a mask, a face, or an attitude.

I exhaled without making a sound while listening to Steyl cut out the point to Ray again.

... once again, being prepared for the difficulty of negotiating with Cedric, who was a narcissist, in a different direction.
