133. Problems with piling

"Hey, I'm glad you called me in. I don't know, a glass of rush first."

"As many times as I say, I'm a minor.... or are you already drinking?

I was at a bar a little away from school, and I was meeting with Remill.

I seldom call her in, but I was supposed to meet her nearby because I was going to be late for work on the school side.

I was going to wait for Remill to finish earlier than planned... but she came first and is already drinking.

Glass Sit face to face with Remill doing a one-handed invitation.

"Drink what? Naturally, it falls on expenses, so you can ask for whatever you want."

"I always use soft drinks. So, here's the thing..."

"Well wait. You always say that, don't you? Let me hear about the status report. Is Miss Iris doing well?

"I have a report today about that Mr. Iris."

"! Miss Illis's...?

Remill gives me a slightly surprised look.

As far as my current reaction is concerned, though I don't seem to have any information about Illis.

"Actually, I hear you have an engagement story for Mr. Iris."

"Well, an engagement? Well, given Miss Illis' age... Hmm? Engagement!?

Try to bang your desk and get up to the eating mood Remill.

I raise my right hand to stop her. [M]

"Please calm down. After all, didn't you know anything"

"Nothing I don't know. - No, wait. Who's the other guy?

I hear it's the Lernberg family.

"of Lernberg... I see, I was convinced to hear the story"

"Do you have any idea?

"Oh, Haylon told me something meaningful a while ago. There was a point."

"Haylon - Are you the Knight Commander of Haylon Stiletto? of the Knights of Holy Armor."

"Oh. Since we cooperated when the Imperial inspection team arrived, do you have a little familiarity, too?

"No, I've barely spoken... did that Stiletto Captain say anything to you?

"In recent days, the rumored Oracle of the Magic - he even circulated that story to me... well, as I told you, the Knights are in the current situation, amiable hands with each other... what a situation"

Remill affirmed so clearly.

The five Knights present in the Kingdom - in a cooperative relationship, of course, but also in a state of independent authority.

Until recently, the Guardian Knights, led by Teulos Grever, were arguably the most powerful in the country. Whatever, knights guarding the center of the present king, William Tiroke.

He held his son, Zeil Tiroke.

... Even if Iris or someone else became King, the fact that he was protecting his former royalty remains unchanged. If nothing had happened, we should have stayed at our maximum.

But the Guardian Knights are weakened by Zeil's scandal.

I mean, as things stand, there's been a power struggle, including the Black Wolf Knights, to which I belong.

As far as listening to Remill based on that,

"Is it the Knights of the Holy Armor that owns the Lernberg family?

"Exactly. I mean, the engagement of the Reinfels and the Lernbergs - suggests an alliance against us. We need to see if the Reinfels are fulfilling and accepting it..."

"The Lernberg family is certainly a magical prestige, isn't it? I don't belong to the Knights."

"I'd say it's at the top when it comes to magic technology. Haylon's story says that the Lamberg family and the Knights of Holy Armor are working together to take action on the measures of the Magic Order"

"I don't know much about that magic denomination and doing it... what kind of organization is it?

"The name is Bulfaus - an organization that claims to promote magic technology. By the way, it will be the Lernberg family that leads the Magic Society, although it is not approved"

Bulfaus and the Magic Society - As far as magic is concerned, there are several organisations in this country. It would be two of those things that could be said to be the largest force.

"What both organizations claim is the promotion of magic technology... but that's the so-called classification of conservatives and extremists. We haven't had a major problem yet, but we're talking about the Bulfaus movement being enlivened these days. - Hey, I think I'm a little out of line. Anyway, the story of that engagement is that it leads to an alliance between the Black Wolf Knights and the Holy Armor Knights, but if the engagement between Lernberg and the Reinfel family is concluded, it is likely that it will be Lernberg who will be king"

If the engagement is concluded, Illis will go to his daughter-in-law more - that would be the story.

"Isn't it sometimes the case that Larnberg will be my son-in-law?

"It would be if it were an engagement between 'just' aristocrats. Except for The Four Nobles. That's like custom, and it's not like Miss Illis is going to be the exception. You're going to be my wife."

"The custom of the four great nobles, is it? But Mr. Iris seems to refuse the engagement story."

"Well, naturally Miss Iris would say no. But it's also important to say no..."

"Is that why? If you're Mr. Iris, you're looking to be a knight... so I suppose you'd say no. You may not speak plainly."

"When it's known, it's a lot of trouble."

Remill holds his head. I felt like it had been a long time since I saw her seriously troubled.

"I'll tell Mr. Illis anyway. For once, I plan to be with her that day as an escort."

"... that's my knight. It's quick and helpful.... Damn, there's something about Ayna, and there's a lot to think about."

"With that said, you also had to ask about Lady Ayna. Or one more thing - didn't my sister go to the captain?

"Is that Miss Mariel? No, you didn't come to me."

"... Really? So, can I talk to you about Lady Ayna?

"I can't go into that much detail about the matter either... but what she came to King's Capital in the first place was to build friendship between kingdom and empire. Though I didn't think I'd use my hand at studying abroad."

Looks like you're going to be in my school.

"... I have received reports about it from other knights. By the way..."

"If you want to include Aena's escort, will you also accept a consultation about my salary?

"Ha ha, you're really... an excellent knight, aren't you?

Remill shrugs his shoulders and says. Remill seems to have a lot of problems too - but I could understand the situation on the whole issue.

The only thing I don't know is about my sister. [M]
