The Villager Who Grew Up Drinking Elixir Fountain

While Sheila was out to the city by herself, Lupica was climbing the castle alone. To check the library in the royal castle, find a hidden room, etc.

He wears a wizard's robe, not a dress. With this appearance, it is also possible to enter a place where you can enter with a dress like a training area.

He has quite a place as a wizard, and his strength is the best Lupica in this country. I'm just looking around to see if there's any difference between it and the actual castle because I'm also authorized to see a detailed view of the Royal Castle.

"I hope now I know what it is..."

The first thing to check is the ground floor part of the Royal Castle. Because it's the quickest way to build a research facility in the basement, and it didn't look like there was much difference between the plans and the actual building upstairs.

On the ground floor of the Royal Castle are several guest rooms reserved for breaks, in party rooms for holding night clubs and more.

In addition, rooms for carrying out tasks such as kitchens and laundry rooms are built in the back.

"The facilities used by the servants may be suspicious."

Nobles like Lupica don't usually come in here. It would be a great place to hide from a nobleman who feels about the Spirit, as it is a place used by civilians working in the royal castle.

But even as I look into it, if Lupica goes, it will stand out.

When Lupica conceived that I should have a maid's uniform serving the castle... she was called from behind.

"Oh, isn't it Master Lupica? Are you alone today?

Lupica slightly distorts her face to a nasty, tangled voice. But soon he makes a smile and looks back.

"... Chancellor, what can I do for you?

"No, no. I saw Master Lupica in a rare place, and I spoke up"

Where Lupica is, it's a compartment of servants that nobles usually don't use. That's why the Chancellor, Hertrecht, tells us he wonders, but it's mutual.

"The Chancellor is the one, how can you be in a place like this? I was just thinking of going through here and going behind my back."

Although I don't normally use it, going through the servant compartment is a shortcut to the magic practice area. If it's Lupica wearing a robe, it won't be as uncomfortable.

But there's no reason for a man like your nobleman who loves power to be here. Helltreet tries to stare at Lupica, "Hmm" and evil.

"I'm the prime minister, so it's natural to pay attention to every corner of the castle, right?

"That's right."

Lupica smiling back at Hertrete's words, but I don't think he's looking at the servant compartment from time to time, and he hasn't actually.

Maybe there's a research facility on spirits? That's what I thought.

If the upper echelons of the country are involved, there can be no Helltreet involved that prioritises private private lust.

Hell Treat came from a direction where there is a room that stores washed sheets, etc. Unlike the kitchen where there are always people, it basically takes until after noon to be used as a storekeeper.

It's evening now, so there shouldn't be anyone in the vault.

"Speaking of which, is Miss Sheila staying at Master Lupica's mansion? They said they had a guest room in the castle because of it."

"Such care is unnecessary. Sheila is a dear friend of mine, and I'm here to entertain you."

Lupica is surprised to reply to Heltrete. The reason he tries to take Sheila in is because I can't think of any.

She said she was just a girl with no identity or anything, who just gave dying Alf herbs.

"Besides, Sheila was just out of the country. If you stay in the royal castle, you will shrivel."

"Isn't a country daughter something you admire about the king's capital?

"It's the king's capital, not the royal castle."

There's no way Sheila likes it and gets caught up in noble troubles.

Or is there something wrong with Sheila with me?

"Ha, no way. I just want to honor her for saving the brave. I can defeat the Demon King, but it's hard to die."

Helltriet says Sheila was only great at what she did. But at the same time, he tells me that he has lived well in a place like that.

"In those deep woods, I hear it's hard to find one herb as well. I guess most things are too magical to be used directly by humans?

"... what do you want?

"No, no. Miss Sheila wondered where the hell she came from. As the prime minister of this country, you'll also need to know the state of the village on the border, right?

"That's enthusiastic."

Lupica nods as impressed, but does not tell this man about Sheila's village.

More than that - it's too obvious. Obviously, Sheila and the others know something about the Spirit, so they're putting in an exploration.

Lupica is not stupid enough to be asked so far about Sheila that she doesn't realize what Helltreet is all about, something she should have stopped doing in the first exchange.

"Me, it's time to go. Good day, Chancellor."

"... hmm"

Heltrete smashed her tongue small, but Lupica decided not to listen.

"Well... and. You're going to need to find out what's ahead."

Lupica made sure Helltreet walked away, then tried to walk down the hallway - stopping that leg. Because they called me from behind.

"Master Lupica!

"... what's the matter, to this point"

It was Lupica's maid who showed up. He's a trustworthy person, a thoughtful opponent who's been taken care of since he was a young man. I also ask to take care of Sheila, who is staying as a guest now.

The samurai got a look that seemed difficult to say, but she immediately conveyed her concerns.

"Sheila, who said she was going out to sightsee, hasn't returned yet. I told you dinner time and you said you'd be home by then..."

"Sheila? Did you do a search?

"Of course it is. But Sheila's not here anywhere in the city."

"…… yes"

Listen to the samurai, Lupica thinks.

Sheila is certainly out of standard, but she's not the kind of person who breaks a promise she made once. Maybe get caught up in the case - but I also don't think that's possible knowing how strong she is.

Then there is one possibility of getting there.

"... have you found it"

"Master Lupica?

"No. You go back to the mansion and let me know if Sheila gets home"

"Okay."

Giving instructions to the samurai, Lupica hurries to the one to whom Hertrete has come. I glanced into the vault where few people come in time now.

Inside, beautifully selected sheets are once stored on the shelf and are clean. But on the contrary, that turned out to help Lupica.

Only in one place was there a slight disturbance in the nicely placed sheet. I could easily imagine that Heltrete was doing something.

"Right here."

If you put the sheets away, what you see is the wall.

"Is there a trick?"

Put your hand on the wall and tap it with Conn. Only one of them sounded high rather than low and dull.

I thought there was something right there, and it seemed to be a revolving door, and the walls swung around and opened.

"Hidden passage......"

Since it is a royal castle, Lupica also knows that there is an evacuation route used by the royal family in case of emergency. but that is not what is installed in the storage room in this way.

Mostly rooms used by royalty and most connected to corridors, downtown.

In other words, this hidden passage is unlikely to be used as an evacuation route, and Lupica believes it leads to a facility that is studying the Spirit to see how Hell Treat is doing.

Trying to proceed with vigilance, Lupica's spine trembled. Put your hands in front of you so you can use magic immediately, and look back.

"Who...... Huh!?"

"Hey, don't be so vigilant, okay?

I giggled, and Letia with Pal stood there.
