Chapter 330
Has Adriana become close enough to wash Royard herself?
It seemed that Royard liked Adriana.
“It looks good. I usually go like that It always smelled like a dog in the rain, so I couldn’t stand it.”
When Elerith smiled and said that, Loyar glared at Elerith.
“Whether I wash or not.”
“When you go home, buy some insecticide and spray it on the child. It must have been infected with the fleas and lice that lived on your body.”
“Is this real? why are you doing this to me No fleas, no lice!”
“It’s even weirder without it. Could it be that it was so dirty that I couldn’t even get fleas or lice?”
“Shut up!”
Elleris has a surprising tendency to lash out at Loyar. Royard also has a pretty good reaction when he gets angry.
Is it similar to how I hit Harriet?
Anyway, from a dog caught in the rain to a white-haired beast that looked like a man, Loyard joined.
“Okay, I couldn’t explain properly last time because the situation was urgent. I called you here today because I have something to organize.”
Last time, I did what I had to do without properly explaining the circumstances and intentions in detail. After that, we couldn’t talk because we had to go back to the temple.
Above all, Sarkegar.
Ellerith and Loyar did not know, but Sarkegar needed to understand the situation.
“It is true that the last time was to save Olivia. It is true that you tried to save Adriana.”
At my words, all three of them were silent.
“Olivia shares Tiamata with me, and she plays an important role in imprinting divine magic on Tiamata. It’s something that shouldn’t disappear. Of course, I wouldn’t say it’s just for use. Adriana and Olivia, they are all important people to me.”
“Lowering… … . Too much love for humans… … . no.”
Sarkegar seemed worried and was about to say something, but then fell silent. She seemed to have given up on this part, knowing that she couldn’t convince me.
“What you’re most curious about right now is why did you let humans know that we exist?”
“Yes, lower. If they know that a new demon king exists, humans will assemble and try to find us somehow.”
In order to prevent the division of the empire, the remnants of the demons appear.
It was a good thing for the Empire, but it was inevitable that it would be a handshake among handshakes for Sarkegar, who dreams of rebuilding the Pandemonium.
However, the reason is that it is created as you attach it.
“Sarkegar, let me tell you something interesting.”
“What is?”
“Leverier Ranche said he wants to hold hands with him right before he dies.”
“!”
At that, Elerys and Sarkegar’s expressions showed amazement.
“Isn’t it good for you if your forces cause chaos in the empire? Wouldn’t it be better to hold hands?”
“The commander of the Knights Templar… … . say that… … .”
“Humans are such beings.”
I lower my voice.
“For their own benefit, they are willing to join hands with non-humans to kill humans.”
Human wickedness and selfishness.
I talk about it
“then… … . Wouldn’t it be nice to hold hands… … ?”
“I told you. Leberier Ranche wanted two things I couldn’t give up. That’s why I couldn’t negotiate with Lebarrier Ranche.”
I have no intention of hiding the fact that Adriana and Olivia are precious people to me.
“Right now, we are still weak. If humans should divide now and the empire manages to deal with it well, everything can be finished when the empire really needs to divide.”
“… … .”
“Now is not the time. The picture would be better if we had enough base and exploded one by one when everything was ready. Either a revolution or the launch of the Holy Empire.”
At my words, Sarkegar’s expression changes little by little.
It is the expression of looking for an answer out of doubts and doubts.
“The Holy Empire is not a problem that will disappear just because Lebarrier Ranche dies. There are forces within the Odae Main Church that want independence. Maybe they will find another focal point besides Leverrier Ranche.”
“And, they join hands with us as needed.”
“Revolutionary forces? They are no different. The Empire is a huge monster. The monster that the revolutionary forces have to deal with is big and powerful. those guys? Of course, if the power of the new Pandemonium can shake the empire, they will definitely try to join hands with us.”
“Of course, if the previous demon king was in good health, he would never hold our hand. They’re just trying to use us.”
“In other words, we are at a stage where we can hold hands only now when we are weak. To deal with the monster called the Empire.”
“So, the reason why we appeared now is not to unite mankind.”
“It is to inform the anti-imperial forces of our existence.”
“So, by approaching them one by one, they and we exchange each other’s utility values. So that we can discuss in detail the story of the timing and point of tearing down the empire.”
“So, whether it’s a revolution, the launch of the Holy Empire, or the rebuilding of the Pandemonium, isn’t it better to achieve your own goals if they happen simultaneously rather than sequentially at different times? It must be an offer they have no reason to refuse.”
“So to speak, this is the starting point for creating an anti-Imperial coalition.”
Its main purpose is to inform mankind that the Demon Realm is still alive and to stop their division.
However, depending on the language, it can also be explained by saying that it is to reveal our existence in order to join hands with the anti-imperial forces and to use them.
Anti-Imperial Coalition.
It all comes down to talking in the end.
At my words, Elleris was looking at me with a puzzled expression.
Even Elerith, who knows my true intentions, is shocked. It’s all lies for the future, and in fact, I think my real purpose might be this way.
Even Elerith, to whom I told her everything, is surprised.
“In the wise eyes of the lower… … . I am in awe… … !”
Not to mention Sarkegar.
His doubts were resolved.
have to be solved
Even if it’s up to the explanation, I can do it if I really want to. If destroying the empire is the priority, the revolutionary forces will hold our hand.
After the empire collapses, they will try to cut our throats, but it’s only natural to join hands now with a later enemy out of necessity.
First, destroy the biggest enemy you face, and then defeat the smaller enemy that you joined hands with.
If you try to do that, you can really do it.
“Contacts with the revolutionary forces will be made in the name of Dark Land.”
“Okay, lower… … .”
Sarkegar was shouting exclamations as if he had never imagined my plan was so grandiose.
In fact, it’s all lies.
Revolutionary forces and work of the Holy Empire.
While contacting and exchanging information with those key forces, all I can say is not revolution or imperial collapse, but ‘it’s not yet time’.
We just need to wait until the gate crisis breaks out.
about a year in the future.
In the meantime, if I keep my feet tied, my purpose will be achieved. The next thing is just postponed.
I feel like my head is going to explode just by dealing with the gate incident, but I can’t think of what my actions will lead to in the future in a state where the incident is not properly resolved.
The explanation of my intention is over. The most important thing was that he wanted Sarkegar to be convinced, and it seemed he did.
Sarkegar rushed back, eager to find a way to contact the revolutionaries as quickly as possible.
Even if he looks like that, he doesn’t worry because he’s a guy who is thoroughly good at what he has to do.
“Do you have anything to say?”
“… … If you are, then it must be so.”
Royard listened to everything and just sat there blankly. It seems that his mind was completely sold elsewhere.
Anyway, the story is over.
“How is Adriana, how are you? Seeing as she even cleans it, she seems to be doing better than I expected.”
It’s not like washing a child much younger than yourself, but at the point of saying that you’ve been washed, Loyard has a lot of problems.
“Compared to that spoiled kid, he’s like an angel. He’s calm, kind, and keeps saying he’ll help me, but I’m dying of annoyance.”
Even if you say it like that, just talking about Adriana makes me laugh.
To be incapacitated by a single blow from your sister.
Isn’t that too easy?
okay… … . That’s what being a dog is, isn’t it… … .
After all, Ellen’s personality is like that of a cat. She doesn’t show emotion easily, she pretends not to care at all, then she suddenly walks up and sits on her lap.
I wonder if Ellen and Royard weren’t compatible with each other.
Adriana was thinking that maybe she should be sent somewhere else.
It hasn’t been a few days, but seeing Royard doing that, I wonder if Adriana is doing well.
Of course, that was Royarman’s idea, and Adriana’s might be different, so I thought I’d go find it myself later.
After Royard somehow got lighter and walked out of the sewer lightly, I looked at Elerith for the last time.
“How about Ladia?”
“Um, you scare me a lot. I think it can’t be helped. Well, if you leave it to me… … . I believe there will be good results soon.”
Originally, she intended to kill Lydia Schmidt, but she was kept alive at Elerith’s request, so I believe she’ll take care of herself.
* * *
tuesday.
I felt that the uproar that had been there had calmed down to some extent. Almost all the people who were going to get out had left, and the investigation seemed to be going on, but it would have been in the dark.
There was no way to find or track any traces.
I was in the student council president’s office now.
Student President and Vice President. These are the people I saw in the last club budget subsidy issue.
Temple Student Council President, 5th year Lane Carly.
Vice-President, 4th year Hermann von Rogarius.
The temple festival is over, so I feel a sense of liberation, but I can still see a lot of fatigue piled up.
“Everyone will go to an audience with His Majesty the Emperor from now on.”
Tournament winners can have an audience with the Emperor. I thought that the meeting with the emperor might be canceled because of this incident, but it seems that is not the case.
A total of six players from 1st grade to 6th grade tournament.
One unlimited tournament winner.
And it is exceptional.
This time, even Mr. Temple and Miss Temple have an audience with the emperor.
So, not only I but also Ellen were present in the process of meeting the emperor and hearing the precautions.
Mr. Temple is a stranger. He is an unlucky handsome guy from the normal class. He is in the 4th grade.
be not interested in.
While talking about these and other precautions, student council president Lane Carly seemed to be concerned about something.
I know what it is without even saying it.
Seven tournament winners.
Miss Temple, and Mr Temple.
There should be nine people in total, but there are only eight people in this position now.
No Unlimited Tournament Winner, Radia Schmidt.
The disappearance of Lydia Schmidt.
That, too, would have been an important issue.
If it were the imperial family, they could assume that Lydia Schmidt was related to an unknown religious order, and that she was caught up in the previous incident and died.
But missing is missing.
Those who know about the nameless order will know that the search for Lydia Schmidt is also intertwined with this case.
If there are people who saw, and remember, the encounter between me and Radia Schmidt at the Aligar Mall, things get complicated.
It was like I had an adventure to save Adriana and Olivia.
If that part is a problem, it’s okay to have Lydia Schmidt released and perjury.
Ellerith’s choice not to kill Lydia Schmidt could somehow turn out to be good for me.
On the way to an audience with the emperor.
But there is not one person who should be there.
Following the guidance of the Imperial Guard, we left the temple.
Originally, only the winners of the tournament enjoyed the honor of having an audience with the emperor.
The reason why Miss Temple and Mr. Temple were unusually called this time is obvious.
“… … hungry.”
It must be because Ellen, who sits next to her and mumbles fiercely that she is hungry, has been elected Miss Temple.
She is the younger sister of Lagann Artorius and a classmate of Bertus and Charlotte.
You may be wondering what kind of guy Ellen is.
And, the emperor knows that I have improved Charlotte’s condition.
Saviolin Tana said that one day the Emperor would call for me.
It was a bit unexpected to even go to an audience with the emperor with Ellen in the name of tournament winner.
Maybe it was because he was accompanied by the royal guards on his way to an audience with the emperor, so his means of transportation was a bit different than usual.
It was not a magic train, but it was possible to move directly to the gate at the entrance of the imperial castle through the warp gate beyond the temple exit.
Ellen seemed unmoved by the whole situation.
It seems like the emperor wants to see you. His usual fierce expression, as if he had been soaked in water.
To be honest, I don’t have anything to be afraid of, but seeing Ellen’s carefree appearance after a long time was quite fun.
… … no.
But if you think about it, shouldn’t I be afraid of this situation the most in the world?
I’m just a little scared by such a topic, so I’m just thinking, maybe I’m more serious than Ellen?
While thinking useless thoughts, we entered the castle.
As we did last time, we boarded the prepared tram and started heading towards the central palace of the imperial castle.
Everyone was surprised because it would be their first time riding a tram inside the imperial castle.
“There is a tram.”
Ellen seemed a little curious, perhaps the same.
“It should be because it is wide.”
Rather, I was not very impressed. Without this, it would be rather inconvenient to move inside the imperial castle.
“Did you come?”
Ellen’s question made me gasp.
“no?”
Here are the royal guards and unfamiliar students.
No one should know that I came to the imperial castle Emperatos on business about the Palace of Spring.
I don’t want Bertus to know that I played a huge part in saving Charlotte’s life.
Ellen looks out the window while nodding her head in agreement with what I said.
The Winter Palace and the Spring Palace were visible in the distance. Charlotte and Bertus are all supposed to be over there.
At the tram that stopped at the central palace tetra, we all got off and walked in line.
The main gate of the central palace was wide open. Everyone seemed to be overwhelmed by the solemn and majestic appearance of the central imperial palace tetra, although not flashy. Looking at it again, it was a palace that felt rather dignified because it was simple.
Passing through the central hall of the palace and entering the throne room, there was a line of people who were either aristocrats or scoundrels instead of nobles.
A middle-aged man wearing a golden crown and scepter and a red cloak.
There was the Imperial Emperor Nelliod de Gradias.
