"I knew it was busy."

I think about the view from the rocking carriage. Look at me like that, Alexia sitting in front laughs at Couscous.... what the fuck?

"That's right. Because they say it's the most populous city on the continent."

That's the most on the continent. We are now coming to Graham, the Imperial capital, away from the king's mansion. The imperial capital Graham, as Alexia has just said, is the largest city on the continent where people gather.

The population is about 500,000. As many as a tenth of the people of the Regalia Empire live in this capital.

I wonder why we're here, because about two weeks ago, to the king's realm, a messenger of the Regalia Empire came.

I had previously heard from the King that the Regalia Empire was throwing a party for friendship, but in fact a messenger came and was handed a letter of information.

General Meliá and the others stopped saying it was a trap, but since we had already decided to go, everyone reluctantly followed us.

It was me and Alexia who came to the Empire. Krona as me and Alexia's samurai. Douglis, Burton to General Merriam as an escort. Elea and Sizuk came with me as Alexia's escort, and another Nanol soldier, one of General Merliah's men, followed me by about 2,000.

The rest of my fiancées are leaving messages at the King's mansion. Saying it's for friendship doesn't mean no one resents us. You can't bring everyone to such a dangerous place.

Helen remains as deputy general, and General Meliá's deputy generals have put together the other soldiers to stay in the king's realm. There's Caro when it comes to protection, and in case it's a fight, there's Ferris and Aeris. Kate and the others are still here, so they'll be fine.

"But you're so lively I don't think after the war. It's very different from the village I've been in."

None of the villages on their way to Teito were vibrant or energetic. Besides, all I'm in the village is old men to women and children. There were still no young men.

If you listen to me, the men who went into conscription after the war, they're not back yet. She didn't die because a letter was sent to her.

"Still up to something or something?

"I don't know about that, but the next time you try to attack me, the rest of the country won't shut up. That's how the war ended."

No matter how much you think about it, you can't think of a purpose.When the two of us roar yeah, it feels like something warm catches on next door pitched. When I thought about it and looked at it, Krona was hooked.

"What's up, Krona?

As I poked Krona's cheek, which for some reason was swelling her cheeks, I asked.

"... I miss talking to you just the two of us!

They say. Me and Alexia looked at each other and laughed. He's a cute one. Hold Krona up and let her sit on my lap. Krona panics, but this would be easy to talk to.

"I'm sorry, Krona. This will make it easy to talk. That's right, Krona. I'm thinking of buying everyone's souvenirs in Imperial City, what do you think would be good?

Then, until we got to the Imperial Castle, the three of us thought about a souvenir that seemed good for everyone.

◇ ◇ ◇

When the three of us are thrilled about what's good for a souvenir, the door is knocked from the outside. When I opened the window, General Meliá was pulling a horse over the carriage.

"What's going on?

"Yes, now that we have arrived at Imperial Castle in Imperial Capital, it is time to prepare"

"Okay."

We get ready to get off the carriage. I don't have anything special to say when it comes to preparation. The luggage is in the item ring.

"Krona. Don't let the basics get away from us. If you're going to leave with a glimpse, you're definitely on someone's side, like General Merriam. Don't ever be alone, okay?

"Okay."

Krona nods magically at me. I don't think the Imperial side will do anything because they want friendship, but just in case it doesn't happen. I have told everyone else the same thing.

And the wagon that was shaking stops. The door is opened from the outside and descends in turn from Alexia. When I got off the carriage and looked around, I was surrounded by legalia soldiers. A little old man comes out of it.

"Nice to meet you. I am the prime minister of this country, Brooklyn Janmackerser."

"Yeah, I'm Alexia Nanol. Nice to meet you during your stay."

For the most part, you wanted to make sure that in a little while the imperial side would be in your favor. So let this number of soldiers surround us, and the Chancellor will speak with dignity. But unfortunately, Alexia is used to it. I was giving it back at my leisure.

"... my little girl. Then come."

He enters the Imperial Castle looking bitter. You just said you weren't as angry as you thought. Is it good for the Chancellor to put his emotions on the table so easily? I don't know.

But from now on, we're going into the tiger's mouth. No soldier can follow you to this point. I don't know what's going to happen, so I have to take it personally. However, if you want to get your hands on my people, be prepared.

"I asked for all three of them."

Copy that, Master!

"Leave it to me, Lord"

Put two spirits on me and Alexia, the escorts, for when something happens. They say the spirits can discuss it even in the distance, so it's a liaison for when something happens. Light has asked me to stay in the king's realm.

Now you're ready. All right, let's go.
