Haylon, who came to me, sends his gaze to Aria.

Aria sets up a short knife to be vigilant,

"I don't think you need to set it up that much. I'm right... I'm one of the Knights."

"You're right, Aria."

"! If that's what the teacher says"

As I say, Aria will miss the knife.

Seeing that look, Haylon nodded intriguingly.

"I seem to be a student as your instructor... but I seem to have some strength inside. Why don't you join the Knights when you graduate?"

"... because I'm not interested"

"Oh, well."

Even though I lowered my weapon, Aria's vigilance didn't break.

Being in contact with me in the present situation would be no choice if they thought there was something.

In the first place, I'm surprised Haylon, the Knights Commander, is coming directly to the scene.

That's all I can see as important to this meeting.

I ask Haylon. [M]

"So what can I do for you? I'm sure you're on your way to work."

"Oh, you're right. But the other side leaves it to his men. I'm in the same neighborhood, so I was just going to say hello. First Class Schweitz."

"Really? Sure, it's been a while since we've talked face to face like this."

"Collaboration between the Knights often takes place through Knights chiefs and liaisons, so of course."

"Then shouldn't we do the same when it's for you?

"Hmm... you're right, but I told you this was a greeting. Or are you on guard about me, too?

Haylon sends his gaze to Aria again.

Aria said, frowning a little surprised, but never returning words in particular.

When I sigh small, I smile. [M]

"Haha, no way. That's what you're saying. We're in the same neighborhood. And it's like you're on the same mission. Escorting two of the four nobles."

"Those who should be protected together are the same...... that's why. As a matter of fact, don't you think" The Knights' Way "should be?

"... the way the Knights are?

As Haylon repeats, I question. [M]

I don't know what you mean, but he wants to talk to me, apparently.

"That's right. As I'm sure you know... the Knights of the Five Beings are ostensibly in a cooperative relationship, but there's always factional strife behind them. The status quo would be headed by the Black Wolf Knights, which runs Iris Reinfel, the King's primary candidate. It's not just my view, it's the common perception of all the Knights."

"That's right. I'm oblivious to factions like that."

"You're going to get involved without interest. As you know, this meeting is going to be a meeting with my Knights of Holy Armor… it's also a meeting for that."

Engagement of the Rheinfels and the Lernbergs - being able to connect to the nobles who hold each other together means that the Knights will form an alliance with each other.

I hear that the Knights of Holy Armor only defend the Imperial Side, and that the Knights have the elite as well.

I guess there are many knights who are coming here, too, with high strength.

Ultimately, it's a simple story - 'If you're going to form an alliance, allies are going to say hello to each other', I guess that's the greeting.

But I don't think Iris' answer will be Haylon's convincing one.

Whatever, she's gonna turn down this engagement story.

Or... even if they say no, does that mean they need to connect with us?

"First of all, could you not talk about that much in front of your students"

"Oops, this is rude. But the lady there must be from the Reinfel family, right? I don't think it's a problem to ask. No, isn't that more of an interest story? I wonder why Iris over there is in the meeting... do you know?

……

Aria doesn't answer. But that much is what every Knights knows.

Besides, Aria should at least be known for its existence in previous disturbances - although Haylon doesn't go into that point in depth because he's not going to mention it.

"Well, I'll respond as a clerk, too. If you're going to form an alliance, thank you. As far as I'm concerned, even if it doesn't, we'd better avoid a fight."

"Of course, I agree. First Class Schweitz, by the way, are you planning on moving to another Knights?

"Migration, is it"

"Oh, I highly value you. Remill, I can welcome you with such a good deal of treatment...

"Haha, are you here to solicit me?

"I'll do about headhunting if I get a chance. Unfortunately, unlike the other Knights, I don't have a 'conspicuously strong' at my place... Specifically, I could pay you about three times as much as Remill."

"… triple"

I look a little surprised at Haylon. [M]

Did you do a little research on me when I talked about money?

If it were three times what it is now, it would be too broken as a salary to pay a single knight.

The sweet story has a trap... but if I had just joined the Knights, it would be possible that I would have been on this story.

But unfortunately not now.

For once, I respect Captain Remill.

"Right. Well, she's certainly a young woman, but she can do her job - that assessment wouldn't be wrong. I could have subordinated you, maybe because she's the one. Well, you can talk to me whenever you want."

"Yes, if you get a chance"

When I answer that, Haylon turns his heel and leaves.... I didn't expect you to solicit me as well as talk about the alliance.

For once, you might want to tell Remill that there was a story like this.

"Doctor, is that guy really the Knight Commander?

"Yes, you're right. Why is that?

"... because you don't look like a very good person"

"Don't judge people by their appearance, isn't that what you taught them first? He's one of the chiefs of the knights, too. I think it's the same thing to protect this country."

"But -!"

When Aria tries to keep her words going, she realizes something and looks up into the sky.

I immediately noticed the signs, too.

Should it also be chills that I feel all over my body? Is this feeling - magical or something?

As you notice it, the color of the clear sky changes as if it were an inversion.

Upon checking the perimeter from the building, it appeared that there was a massive 'junction' stretched out so that this area was covered.

If you send your gaze towards Haylon,

"This is..."

He, too, looks up at the sky in stares.

I also thought you had set something up in time, but apparently you didn't.

"Doctor, let's go to Illis"

"Mr. Aria, calm down first - that's fast."

Before you hear my words, Aria jumps out of the building.

When it comes to Illis, he acts fast. I'd like to go right after him, too, but if you don't know what's going on - you should be working with Haylon here.

That's what I thought, but apparently there's not much time in the situation.

From the heart of the junction above - the 'hole' created there, 'something' is coming, because I saw it.
