“That's it.... but I'm glad Master Pride and Master Stale weren't injured."

Dawn, Jill Bale, who exhaled with a breath, finally relaxed from his shoulders there.

Exhale so that you can catch your pride in front of the Jill Vail you visited to ask about your progress. She had been waiting for her, along with Steyl, the Guard, and the Guardian, but as soon as Gilbert entered the room, there was something to talk about.

When I entered her room, it was Jill Vale who was as calm as usual, but I immediately noticed the strangeness of the Guardian Knight behind her. Arthur, who was supposed to be back from Ray Karen's house today with his pride escort, was gone.

Oh, Lord Arthur, if Gilbert asks, he dares to say the words that Steyl returns without putting them in his hair.

"I was forced to leave to the doctor."

Gilbert, who had heard Ray's information from Pride and Steyl, was teased by the boulders.

The fact that he was a powerful fire specialist caused him to change his complexion to "I can't believe he was injured", but he hurriedly corrected the fact that his pride was correct. Even though the injury was minor, I explained that Stale had taken care of it early to show it to the doctor just in case, and the redness of Gilbert's complexion was finally restored. As if to expand the story from there, now I was just about to tell the whole story in Ray's Mansion.

"No, but my reckless actions injured Arthur..."

"Lord Arthur is a knight." I'm prepared for some injuries. "

"That's what a man with a blue face used to say."

I cut off both sides of Jill Bale's words just before Sail puts black tea in her mouth to make up for her pride.

Gilbert shrugged his shoulders without being able to deny it. Sail was laughing at Arthur's exchange with Pride until just before he left the room, but now that Arthur was gone, he was slightly inclined. Although he had no choice but to get hurt, the fact that he was trying to hide it from pride and himself was still objectionable. I told Jill Bale to make a mistake on purpose, and it was close to eight times.

I drank nearly half of the tea that Lotte and Marie had brewed to calm me down, but now I remember Ray's work. I tried to cover the inside of the cup with pride, and as a result, my partner pulled me over. When I remembered that, I felt that the taste and aroma of even the corner tea had fallen.

Gilbert smiled bitterly as he perceived it just by looking at Steyl. He also understands that when he finds out that Arthur was injured, he was quite impatient, compared to the pride that drooped in his eyebrows.

"I'm not as gentle as Stale." Even so, Lord Arthur must have been incredibly powerful. ”

When Mu 'and Stale's eyes sharpen, they continue to talk.

Gilbert's words were tied to his arms as he shed an unexpected gesture of sympathy. From how the thoughts turned back to Gilbert, Ray's special abilities once again turned into power.

Indeed, that power was tremendous, and that was certainly the only fact. From the signal from Pride, I thought that I could escape to the outside of the door in time, so I did not use the instantaneous movement that was my backhand. However, as a result, I thought it was because I underestimated Ray's special abilities. If I had moved instantaneously when I thought an attack was coming, I wouldn't have hurt Arthur, nor would I have held myself responsible for my pride.

"Indeed, Ray's special abilities were incredible." Arthur was only injured for protecting us, but a fire pole ran within the range of one door. "

Stale nodded silently to the explanation of his pride.

I managed to escape this time, but the next time I got injured was not necessarily. When I thought that I had to face him again from the front as he wrapped around the black urn, thoughts began to build up in Steil's head one after another. Gilbert confirmed from the opposite seat that the black-rimmed glasses were quietly rolling up into the abyss.

“So it's hard to convince Ray Karen right now."...... I'm trying to extract information from Jeanne and the others. "

"Yeah... um, Chancellor Gilbert. By the way, what about the example...?"

Gilbert calmly lined up the facts, and his pride clasped his fingers on his lap as he put his strength into his shoulders.

When I visit tomorrow, it doesn't make sense for me to flee if I'm attacked again. Her aim is not to increase the number of contacts, but simply to persuade and cooperate with him. Even more like a beginner maiden game, I think it would be a realistic escape if the intimacy just increased.

"Of course, as Pride wants, we are only holding it underwater for now." However, since you already knew His Majesty the King and His Majesty, it would be difficult for them to do so for a long time. If we don't deal with this soon, we'll have a chance to shake the corner of the Anemone Kingdom. ”

"That's right..."

This time, it becomes round to the shoulder.

Naturally, it is also a task that I entrusted to Jilveer and the others to expose them under the daylight. However, if you finish it first, you won't be able to make contact with Ray this time. If that happens, we won't be talking about being strong enough for him even after we finish the top-secret inspection. That's why I have entrusted everything to Gilbert and the others so calmly.

And now, in the form of "prediction", Gilbert and the others also know why pride keeps the decision match. However, it is difficult to keep it as long as the punishment has already been decided. Unlike Ray, who became cooperative, it is possible that he will try to harm the Pride in the school. Furthermore, if Ray and the others could investigate Eric's house, which he had helped as a borrower, they would involve an unrelated person this time, and Pride swallowed it in his mouth. Right now, all I want is for Ray to be strong.

"... just one suggestion, please."

In the room where the silence lasted, a deeply calm voice was heard.

Pride, who was more immersed in thoughts than in his sight, raised his face and turned to face his neighbor. Stale, returning from the abyss, was sitting there holding onto the black rim of his glasses.

Asked if he had any idea what the suggestion was, Gilbert turned his gaze to correct his posture, and as soon as his eyes met, the mouth end of the stele pulled up.

"Isn't it one of your hands to [cornered] all at once?"

Um...

Pride holds its breath at Stale's suggestion of a diagonal. Even though Stale knew about Ray's situation, he waited for the continuation from him with a black smile. Column squeezed her face against the noisy words as Gilbert leaked in an interesting voice, “Ho,” and Harrison turned his attention.

Steyl smiles at pride, aware that everyone is attracting attention, only by the heat of his gaze. Arthur smiled like he was twisting his face when he was here.

"Leave some and change the order." If we move the case, Ray loses his place. And if you dazzle him, there's no way to reach out to him forever.... so Pride wanted to help him first, didn't he? "

He nodded with pride at the flowing words that spoke of the beginning of the banquet.

That's why I wanted to stop the case that was going to hunt down Ray. But Stale's words were rather the opposite. It was a pride to tie his lips and repeat the blink while still unable to grasp his true intentions, but he gradually felt his pulse slow down.

"In that case, just take away his contradictions and contradictions without [having to] run away." He's clinging to [Ryer], and if we leave him with only a few possibilities and means, he'll still be in the Mansion. ”

My pride's face is twitching as if it sounds like a statement from the evil general.

Meanwhile, Steyl showed him a piece of sugar from the center of the table without breaking his smile. To make it easier to understand, gently raise it to the position of your face and carefully drop it into your cup. Only half of the remaining tea was sunk in with puffs and small bubbles of sugar.

"The possibility of finding [Lyre]." And as long as [he] remains in a situation where he cannot be captured, he will remain.... even if it's a deserted island. "

Finally, Steyl lowered his voice suspiciously, and drank the other half of the tea with elegant workmanship.

I feel that the taste and aroma that I felt just now have dropped, and now I really feel that it stands out the other way. Even in the silence, there was only one sugar cube that did not dissolve in the steel cup that drank without making a water noise.

The word "isolated island" does not make you throat, and you drop your gaze on the remaining sugar. Stale laughed with his usual smile to reassure her face of pride, which had faded in blood. She supplements her voice with softness, as if to gently deny the thoughts she might be thinking about.

“Of course, if Ray Karen had the humanity to negotiate, or if you could consider it as of today, you wouldn't have to use such a noisy hand.”

It's as if I can really distract myself, but I deny my pride only in my heart.

From Stale's voice, expression, and black domination, I could feel his absolute will and slight personal grudges. I know it's true that Ray wouldn't have used such a terrible hand if he had been willing to negotiate, but I'm sure that Stale now wants us to move in your direction from where we really are. And... I'm convinced that maybe that's the best thing to do.

Thinking that her withered smile was a little cute, Stale slightly tilted his eyebrows and lightly raised his cup of tea to signal Marie. Marie was distracted to bring the pot out as she spoke, but she quickly poured the tea into the cup, which still boiled hot.

"Now, his allies are only [Jeanne], whether they want it or not."...... I wonder how much easier it is to get caught in a cage. "

A hot cup of tea is poured in, and the wet cubed sugar collapses and melts.

Pride is illusory for a moment, wondering if they are having a meeting with the villains now. Even though we were supposed to be consulting to help Ray, there was a continuing conversation that could be completely reversed.

I was driven by the desire to rub my neck, but I also hesitated to move my hands layered on my lap. Suspiciously laughing, Sail stretches her spine more than she needs. Enjoying a scent that flooded with steam, Sail turned a smile in a good mood towards Jillvale.

"From the example, only the [Ray Karen] relationship will be postponed, and the rest will be disposed of."... it would be easy for you to manipulate that much information. "

Gilbert, his soft smile stained with black, and his pitch-black eyes certainly glowed.

Gilbert returns with a gentle smile, in response to the black suggestion and smile from Steyl. Stony Steel-sama once again wrapped his tongue around his chest just for the sake of his solution.

It is a merciless method, but there is no doubt that it is the only way to break the status quo. I am glad that he bought me his abilities, but I still feel that he is the most intelligent mastermind in the country. Now I'm counting everything here.

If you wanted, you could give him back his pride and Sail in a lowered voice, and Sail gave him the same look. Savor a sip of the hot black tea and turn the bright smile toward pride when you put it back on the plate.

Why don't you just show everyone here that you're willing to respect the decision of pride?

"He seemed to like wielding [power] quite a bit, and tasting [frustrated] and [bitter] here would be a good study for the future."

──No, I know you're upset!!

Pride screamed in her heart at Steyl's smile.

However, I also understand that Steyl's plan is the shortest course that can be advanced calmly without causing the most damage. Besides, it won't end up like this, even if it means hunting down Ray for a while. In view of his wishes, I think it would be best for him if he were to face even more painful circumstances. Besides, at least we won't have to worry about involving the Gilchrist family and school students in the future.

No matter what I think, I can't think of a better solution to him than Steyl who doesn't listen. In the end, the result was a clear nod in the form of a nod.

Please do so...... and in a desperate voice, I asked Gilbert for his pride, and he returned a deep thank you "as you wish". Pride hurts a bit of conscience from now on as it unfolds into Ray's fury. I was sure that I'd become his villain before I was ready to be like Sister Farnham and Brother Nate.

... because Arthur got hurt...

Perhaps it was definitely the eruption point, but Pride's sigh faded when he thought so.

For whatever reason and in whatever form, the First Prince thought it might be Ray's biggest mistake to hurt his only best friend.

After playing the game of his previous life, I know why Ray is looking for Lyre with blood in his eyes, and I know the process of his formation from how it happened. I know what he told me in the route. Given that, I think the reality that will come down to him is harsh. Having such a miserable past, he began to wield power both in the game and in reality.

You will see the greatest power.

"Even tomorrow," said the First Princess Pride, preparing herself for a new moment as she saw off Jill Vail, who was lifting her hips.
