The harbour, surrounded by robust jetties and the walls above it, is precisely a water fortress. In the port of Ryushuk, we landed.

"To the guests of Ryushuk - salute!

"Answer!

The soldiers of the 'Central Good Civil Army' strike and salute the ground simultaneously with a stone clash of spears. Agile and neat operation and a tight look. Square shield on matching clasp, sword on spear. Everything is used and polished out.

Besides, even if you see my people and treasures coming down to the harbor one after the other from the ship, you're barely showing any upset.

Moving stone statues (stone golems), dark elves, and warriors should be fearful enough in this world (Sedia). Still, there is a degree of respiratory response, but not a single one that stands up.

Honestly, I've never seen an army feel so proficient.

"Lord Geo Margils, castle lord of Zytheas! Ryushuk welcomes you!

Welcome?

A commander-like young soldier stepped forward from the line and stated his mouth. He is also a soldier's appraisal young man, whose hair is cut short and his stature seems to be sturdy to a harsh look.

I lean my inner neck, but their stiff movements don't give me the time to question.

"I am a Central Good Civil Army, Second Instant Battalion Captain and Captain Solas! We will be in charge of your guide and guard in Ryushuk! Please let us know if you need anything!

"... um. Regards."

While slightly overwhelmed by their momentum, they manage to snort at the big guy. For once, they seem to respond as decent guests.

"First, we will show you to the hotel. Rest there and we are scheduled to meet with the Commander tomorrow morning!

"Oh. Do as you plan."

Already, I had applied through Elizabeth for a top meeting between the commander and me. That was accepted, and I'm sure it's a pleasure. I'm glad I didn't get gudagda like I did when I was in Sylvas... but it's a slightly different reaction than I imagined.

The structure of the city around here was largely similar, even if it was different in size. The streets stretching from the harbour to the city centre lead to the square. The square is the heart of the city, lined with the headquarters and temples of the Good Civil Army and various guilds.

From the streets to the squares, the citizens of Ryushuk welcomed us with a certain enthusiasm, leading us through the moving stone statues (Stonegolem).

Certainly not in the atmosphere of letting go and welcoming like Sylvas and other cities.

Beyond the walls of soldiers aligning themselves to make our way are the faces, faces and faces of the citizens. Or interest, or suspicion, or fear. It had various expressions on it, but less of disgust and fear. Well, I don't have a favorable look either.

"... Oh, is that the wizard..."

"But that's a great queue..."

"It's like an old story."

It hasn't become such an avid noise as it did when Sylvas and Lellis. I hear them bluffing a lot.

On the moving stone statue (Stonegolem), the "Shining Emerging Fine Work" is listed by two Land Running Dragons (Rouzadio), a Shrews Warrior with Veterinary Leather Armor, a Dark Elf, and a Bronze Warrior (Soldiers of Bronze).

The Grand Wizard Matrix, not the Grand Name Matrix.

It should be noted that the "Great Wizard's Matrix" does not include former Baron Sileon and his companions, who recently joined his companions. I have them leave a message on the boat. Exactly, being with me shortly after all that delightful commotion in Sylbus is a decision that the public is not welcome.

"Hey, Margils. The captain..."

"Captain Solas? Sure, was that Commander Sodern's son?

"Dear Left, Lord"

Across phantom horses (phantom hoses) in the center of the queue are me and Sedam, Crawla. Speaking in a whisper with Sedam, Leiha answered me from somewhere (...). Well, maybe she's escorting me somewhere (...).

"I wonder if the commander has changed his mind when he bothered to drop your son off for guidance and escort."

"I hope so...... no, I hope so. Sometimes, once in a decade or so, things should go really smoothly."

I couldn't help but pray as I looked at Captain Solas' back walking in the lead. Well, if this is the TRPG that Yagi is mastering, it's not an unlikely development first. Because it's real, we should be able to have a convenient development once in a while.

Only Ryushuk, where a large number of ambassadors from all over the country were also good, such as the Ryus Conference, and the reception hotel was a very fine one.

There was plenty of room for us in the Big Band. The servants seem to be well trained, and take good care of them.

Mora and the four Dark Elves seemed a little dissapointed when their work was taken.

We all gathered in the wide reception room and had a tea party because we had finished unpacking and so on.

"For now, it's all tomorrow. I hope Commander Sodern understands somehow."

"We also have some prospects for the recapture of Lauris, and I don't think they would disagree if this one were to leave the lead to the good folk about the alliance against the dark,"

The analysis of diplomatic expert Elizabeth is comforting.

"Right. They were wary in the first place because of the bad reviews that Khalid had shed. Mm-hmm. I'm starting to feel like it's gonna work."

"I'm sure you'll be fine, Mr. Gio!

And so on and so on and so on. The door was reluctantly knocked and a maid from the reception hotel turned up. Hmm. I have a bad feeling about this.

"Oh, you know. Wizard, I'd like to see you."

Asking the names of the visitors, they said what a "good militia commander Sodern" and "magician guild branch chief Perryshra" are.

"... it was a short dream..."

I shrugged as I slipped off the chair a little. Commander? Commander Nande?

And when it comes to Perryshra, he's a super important figure at the apex of a magician within the Lius Alliance. Indeed, he denied his alliance with me to "earn fame to escape the complex to the past of being an orphan abandoned by his parents and others," said Reich's investigation.

Those nasty people. Besides, why bother coming to see me from the other side when I'm supposed to see you tomorrow? I just don't feel like trouble anymore.

"Maybe he just came to say hello."

"Oh, yeah! Look, maybe the commanders want to get along with Mr. Gio too!

"Why don't you tell me to get out and go home?

Reich, Maula and Deane are encouraging me with their respective vocabularies (well Reich wouldn't believe his own dialogue).

"Come on, come on, you can't help being grumpy, can you? I'll take care of it first, so get ready."

Crawla slapped her hand against the bread. She is absolutely right. I get up, boy, and get Mora to help me get up to speed.

The hotel also had another reception room for the interview.

When I get my robe in order, I'll meet with the visitors. In attendance are both Crawla, a magic adviser, and Elizabeth, a diplomat.

"I'm sorry for your tiredness. I am General Sodern McSally, Commander of the Central Good Civil Army."

Welcoming me as I walked into the room was first a gray-haired, white-bearded, flexibly bodied, mature man. Circoat on the clasp of the good militia. He has a long sword on his hips and a short cane on his left hand to support his body. He was an amazing figure, like a painting of the word 'strict'.

With the effect of the [Master's Eye (Sense of Adept)] I chanted while dressing, my vision showed information that [man/man/fifty/warrior level IX] was on top of him.

"... magician Guildreushk City Branch Manager. Perry Shra."

Sodern was followed by a middle-aged woman in a green and black robe. He had a wand that followed the crest of the Sorcerer's Guild, more than tall in his hand. Dark-haired bob-cut with glasses. I am a beautiful woman... well, I have a slightly tight eye.

[Master's Eye (Sense of Adept)] was rated [Human/Female/Thirty-five/Wizard Thirteen Levels]. Oh, the Wizard Judgment does make the thirteenth level strong.

"Giteias castle lord, wizard Geo Margils. It hurts to come all the way here."

Then, introduce Crawler and Elizabeth and sit on the couch.

Sodern and Perryshra sat in line across from me, and Crawla and Elizabeth remained standing behind me.

"Lord Margils. There are two things we have done here. One is an apology."

Savoring a sip of the tea Mora carried me in the face of tension, Sodern said severely.

"Apologize?"

"Oh...... As a matter of fact, the other day, it was discovered that spies of lake thieves were lurking in both the Good Civil Army and the Sorcerer's Guild."

"Ho."

According to Sodern's explanation, the lake thieves have suddenly been acting strange for days now? Whoever sells or turns himself in, suddenly information comes in from a bandit's guild in another city, and the number of arrests of lake bandits grows with great clap, and we finally discover even spies inside Ryushuk, he said.

After all, maybe you were right to defeat Khalid, the leader, and threaten the executives. As I nodded inside, Sodern bowed his head deeply.

"The spy confessed everything. Khalid's plan was to manipulate information to get us into a dispute with you."

"Ugh... looks like it"

"As I said when I met with your diplomat, I was thinking of Lord Margils... as a rape trying to gain power in the Lius Alliance. I am truly sorry that I was wrong to recognize you, and that I rejected your alliance on the basis of that error. You're right, I apologize."

Sodern lowered his brilliant gray-haired head, just like that, he wouldn't move. No, I got a perry shra sitting next to me with my elbow. She bows her head, too, looking disgusted.

"... As Mage Guild Branch Manager, I admit it was a detour. Apologize."

Two people in Heavy Town lowered their heads and to be honest, they are very uncomfortable. It's not like these two are bad. Damn, I'm not used to the one called Top Talks no matter how many times I do it. I kind of got a cold sweat.

... but well. The misunderstanding solved and he apologized, which in itself should be welcomed.

For once, look at the crawler behind you and Elizabeth. Confirmation to accept their apology. I thought you two would agree, but Elizabeth shook her head lightly.

"Excuse me. Is that with the understanding that it is not an official apology (...) from the Good Civil Army, the Sorcerer's Guild?

"... unfortunately, you're right. I want you to think of this as a personal apology from me and Master Perryshra"

Sodern said sorry.... I see. If it's an official apology, it could be damaging to them in future negotiations.

Plus, if you think the other way around.

"Okay. I don't mind the perception of informality. Accept your apology."

"Right. Thank you."

……

Sodern and Perryshra lifted their faces slightly less nervous. But what seems suspicious somewhere is that you thought I'd be more gonnabe.

"In the first place, you haven't released the existence of a spy, have you? I don't suppose there's anything else about Leuschk's official view of me."

"... you decide you didn't, do you?

"Oh. I just want to work with the people of Ryushuk"

"Hmmm......"

Sodern seems to have convinced me. Perry Shra's expression is also slightly soothing.

It's good, isn't it?

Sometimes it saved me the trouble of persuading you. Even though the chief was gone, they captured Khalid's spy on their own and uncovered the facts themselves.... They are not the NPCs that I (the players) have to save. It was also a pleasure to reconfirm that.

"Except,"

"What?

"Your reputation in the city has returned to neutrality at best. And there are still many things I doubt about you, whether you're a good militia or a sorcerer's guild. If you don't publish the spy thing, all the more so."

Perryshra said, distorting his mouth. Well, it's hard for them to say, 'The Wizard's ratings so far have been tricked by the Lakers'.

"And to be honest with you in anticipation of your character, many of you are half-hearted about your own abilities."

"Especially within the Mage Guild. … clearly, I'm one of them."

Whoa, you came here and Perry Shra dropped the bomb. The two behind me showed breathtaking signs.... Are we still going to drop meteorites and threaten them here?

"There it is. Let me say the second requirement."

"The Good Civil Army and the Ziteias Castle One Party. Me and you. I want each of you to play an exemplary game in front of the citizens of Ryushuk."

……

……

Well, what? Trouble, not so much. It's a game. Easy win, easy win.

I told myself.
