It was unarmed Leonid and Cashmere who came into the room in exchange for Verlaine and Master and the two of them.

"Wow, you look fine. Are you eating properly?

"It's just happened, so let's eat now. Dick, the mistress of the building has prepared for you a recovery celebration. I'm still admired."

Kasumi likes eastern ethnic costumes and still wears them today. When I hid my mouth on the sleeves of my clothes, it was glossy.

(Something subtle is happening to everyone today... a recovery celebration, maybe a party thing?

I'm not relieved to be doing such a flashy thing, but if Beatrice thinks it's for me, it's hard to say innocent.

"Hahaha, you look vigilant. It's a recovery celebration, so it's irritating to see a lot of people coming together. What a strong, deep, itchy guy."

"Oh, please stop saying it's deeply itchy. It's too cute for me."

"That kind of thing about you is a factor that attracts more popularity than ever. The desire to stand out is also the vessel of the one who stands above man, but he likes it as well. I prefer itchy men."

"Kasumi-san, that's fine... no, it's not fine. The way you wear it is dangerous. Poison in the eyes."

You should be able to tighten your collar, but your chest is open. Leonid raised one eyebrow and put his hand on his chin, looking at me with great pleasure.

"Well, Dick is old, too. I thought it was rigid, but is it time to combine it with softness? My grandson can't even ask."

"Dick is somewhat interested in women, too. I thought my teeth wouldn't touch me anymore."

"Well, grandson... why would that happen, Mr. Leonid? What happened to Mr. Kasumi when he said he wanted to go out with me? I don't even put it on my teeth, that kind of thing...."

I was going to give her a straightforward return, but Leonid sighed and exhaled with exaggeration. Kasumi remained smiling.

"You still don't seem to realize what you've done. Neither the Prime Minister nor His Majesty the King can give you an opinion anymore. No, over the next hundred years, Dick... no hero like you will ever show up."

"That's why... no, Dick's vessel is too big for the job. Will you stand above us as a Grand Alliance Master?"

Grand Alliance Master. Only the mentor who once founded the guild held the title.

I chose the twelfth guild because I didn't want to go too far on the stage.

From now on, however, the guild of King's Landing must be restructured. Some Alliances that have lost their functionality and become uncontrollable need someone to lead the entire Alliance, either by incorporating them into other Alliances or by creating new Alliances and putting them back together.

"... the master of the White Goat Pavilion was temporarily running into extremist behavior in fear of the 'Adventurer Crisis'. Still, he's a capable man. If she's going to regain the wisdom of her past years, I'd like her to play her rightful role."

The adventurers' work in King's Landing has diminished, the survival of some guilds has been jeopardized, and they have had to deal with their dirty work. We in the Alliance Master called it the "Adventurer Crisis" and used it in our report to Prime Minister Lowe.

Etna Feldor, the master of the White Goat Pavilion, is under surveillance by the kingdom's guards, offering redemption for injustice committed by the White Goat Pavilion. As for the direction of the Adventurer in this labyrinth expedition, he transferred full powers to us.

"I don't think he can sit in the Grand Alliance Master's seat."

"Etna once won a ride with Leonid, strengthening the power of the White Goat Pavilion. Now it's totally funny. Dick, what was going on when we got into the White Goat Pavilion?

Leonid and Kasumi didn't know who she was because they couldn't spread the word about her masters.

Even if they had lived a thousand years ago, were the founder of the guild, and left legends everywhere as a "grey clown", they would have believed it - but the Master doesn't want to know that immortality exists. So I don't think you should say it.

"Well, I know it's hard to talk about. I don't think it's a bad thing that Etna's poison came out. Dick, you always do what I can't. I can't thank you enough."

"No, no... I didn't fight the master of the White Goat Pavilion directly, and I didn't do anything serious."

"Lord Leonid didn't know how to treat an old woman like her daughter."

"I don't know how to do that. I'm clumsy. But when I was young, I was called Leonid, the woman who made me cry."

Judging by his reluctant appearance, he would certainly have been popular with women when he was young, and he would have faked it. A great adventurer is like that all the time. My guild has tough men and women.

"Well, I'll leave Etna to Dick. I want you to become Hira's adventurer and re-educate him with Dick."

"I'll talk to you again. I'm an excellent person in the SS ranks, so if I don't get off the road, I'm sure I'll be a contributor to the entire Alliance."

"Fufu... no matter what I say, Dick is still not a fighter. Again, I want to work under you. I conveyed the intention of the indigo maiden pavilion."

"Of course, so is the Black Lion Pavilion. You don't have to announce it to the Grand Alliance Master, but thank you for putting together the King's City Alliance. I don't mind if it doesn't interfere with the work of the silver water bottle stand."

You don't have to publish it. If you are free to exercise your discretion in that regard, it will not be a "situation of people" that goes against my policy.

There may be an idea that I should become a flag of the King's City Alliance by announcing that I have become a Grand Alliance Master, but without that, I will be able to fully contribute to the entire Alliance.

"Mr. Leonid, Mr. Cashmere. I believe that all Alliance Masters' opinions should be equivalent. Balancing your Alliance with other Alliances will give you the best results. Let's continue to work together."

"Oh, thank you very much. I'm sorry I got sick, but I think we should drink a lot today."

"Isn't the Lord of the Stolen family invited to dinner? Leonid seems happy to be able to drink expensive alcohol, but I get a little nervous."

She asked Beatrice to invite Primiere, the current owner of the Stolen family, to come tonight... although she's sick, she's in good health, so there's nothing wrong with talking at dinner.

I can hear the royal and aristocratic movements after I crushed the Snake, and it's perfect. I'd like to reward Beatrice later.

◆ ◇ ◆

People stopped coming to see me, so I put a gown that Verlaine had prepared on top of my bedclothes and came downstairs to see how things were going. Miralka and the others were waiting in the other rooms, but now they're out of their seats.

Manarina, the princess and sister of Timith were entering the kitchen looking for Beatrice's instructions to prepare for the dinner party, even though they were in a quiet state.

"Dear Dick... oh, thank you so much... I've been looking forward to seeing you all day."

"Long time no see, Dick. The Knights have also heard of your work this time."

Manarina and Timis tie their long brunette hair together and wear a triangle scarf. It feels terrifying to have two princesses dress like this, even though there is no cheap profession.

Another red-haired woman wears a triangle scarf and apron just like the other two. Kirsch, who serves the Duke of Orlando.

"Dear Alliance Master, I have a message from the Duke of Marquis, the Duke of the Dutch family. He said that he had done a great job in the survival of the King's Landing and that he wanted to receive a prize from the Dutch family."

"Long time no see, Kirsch. Didn't Lord Markiss tell you he was taken advantage of?

"Well, that's never true. Since yesterday, Marquis has suddenly changed his policy... and he told me not to try to force him to take advantage of the labyrinth exploration, but to follow Lord Dick's instructions."

Kirsch said terribly. After all, it seemed to work for Eileen to get Markis to nail her.

"Kirsch said he wanted to transfer to Dick's guild. Why don't you ask me now?

"Ah... well, that's my hope, and I can't bother Lord Dick's hand, so it's practically impossible..."

"No, that's not true. Not bad for a noble escort, but my guild has some interesting work to do."

Kirsch has the strength of B rank, so working with comparable adventurers will do it without any problems.

I don't think the Orlando family is corrupt as a nobleman, but Markis is too honest with his personal feelings to serve a serious Kirsch. It's called the Vincent family, and I'd rather have His Majesty the King re-educate me.

I think Primiere of the Stolen family deserves to be the most duke, but she's the one who summoned Beatrice and summoned the dead, and she's the one who abandoned the entire mansion, and I'd love to know what happened.

"Dear Dick, I am also kind enough to help the guild while I study....."

"Onee-sama Manarina, if you, the princess, go out by accident, Your Majesty will be worried too. In that regard, it is not so unusual for me, as head of the Order, to ask the Adventurers Guild to help me with my mission."

"Hmm... Timmy, are you thinking about that? I can't tell you how to get in and out of the silver water bottle pavilion and get close to Dick... no, Dick's busy."

"I'm sorry too, sister. But my goal is to meet Duke Solver exactly....."

Timis used to come to see Lia McKinley, a former escort, so she actually comes to the store more often than Manarina - so it seems better to keep quiet to keep the sisters company. When Duke talks to me, I can't imagine what Timmy's preference would be.

"... Dick is still going to be popular. Marquis is also admired by those close to him, but I still...."

"As a subordinate, I want freedom to choose my boss... but it seems like something great. If you want to work for me, I'll be honest with you. I welcome you."

Manarina and Timith's sisters came together and said, "Ah." That's because I gave Kirsch my right hand.

I thought she was a strong woman for the first time, but when Kirsch smiled, she shook my hand unexpectedly modestly.

"... thank you very much. In fact, I've already resigned from the Orlando family."

Is that so? It's a backwater team. "

"Yes. The truth is, when I left the Vincent family, I was going to say I wanted to work for Lord Dick... but I missed an opportunity."

When Kirsch releases his hands, he touches his ears and lifts his hair. When I saw it before, I wore men's clothes as a house order of the Orlando family, but today I wear women's clothes, and I get a fresh impression when I look at it again.

"There's still nature and people gathering in Dick's place... I can't believe it. We need to talk to Miralka."

"Onee-sama, I need to help you again."

"Both of you are going to learn how to cook... I think my Beatrice will be very polite."

Beatrice didn't stop cooking while listening to us, but she wanted me to taste the soup, and as I approached, a spoon came out.

"Master, can I have a taste?

"... yeah, that's fine. If the boned meat of a horn deer is too simmered, it will smell like a beast, so it should be served again. Remove the flesh from the bones after taking the dashi... Whoa, can I do it?

Beatrice's cooking recipe is a copy from our store's recipe book, so it's all in my head. As a result, my body moved on its own.

"I was clearly preparing for the recovery celebration... and I wondered if the Master would cook well, and I wanted to see it."

"What are you cooking in this outfit... then, I'll help you a little too. I'll leave it to you on the way."

"Yes, Master"

Happily, Beatrice gave me an apron. It's a simple black one that I used to teach Beatrice to cook.

I took off my gown and gave it to Beatrice, and instead I put on an apron to tighten the belt, recalling the menu from the prepared ingredients, and grabbed the cooking knife to work on the main dish.

◆ ◇ ◆

I taught Manarina how to cook one dish at a time, took over the rest to Beatrice and went out once.

Although it is magically possible to adjust the temperature around the body, I didn't use it when cooking, so I sweat a little.

"... do you want to take a bath?"

The baths in my Guild House's living space aren't that wide. The baths in this mansion were originally designed for nobles to enter with their servants, so that even if ten people enter at the same time, they don't feel so cramped.

Sometimes it would be nice to stretch your legs out during the day and take a bath, and then go out to a dinner party.

I don't see Verlaine and his master, Sherry and Lotte, or the Demon King Crusaders, but I think they left their seats because they had something to do with it.

(I don't think it's easy to get dressed while I'm losing consciousness... well, as a lady, I'm not observing you naked.)

In the name of the Legion Dragon, the next stage of the so-called Restraint Liberation (Limit Burst), with the help of all the parties, should we call it "Aggregate Liberation (Legion Burst)"?

It seems to be able to jump the battle rating three to four times in an instant, but it also has a large recoil. It seems to recover after a night's sleep, but I don't want to talk about falling down every time I use it, so I want to find a way to remove the risk.

That way, you'll ask your allies to help you try the Legion Burst, but you won't be able to catch your eye if you lose your mind during training.

However, it was very pleasant to say without fear of misunderstanding that everyone's magic would be incorporated into the body. Speaking of the magic of others, if it belongs to a trusted opponent, I feel like I have affinity with my magic rather than a foreign object.

It is said that there is a correlation between emotion and magic, but will intimacy also be affected? There's one more thing I'd like to study in the name of Duke Solver, so I'll write it down later.

◆ ◇ ◆

When someone stays, the baths in the Mansion are prepared after noon. Beatrice kept me warm as long as I could get up.

There is also freshness in the water, and it is not good to leave the water in the bath, so the method of adding herbs and charcoal differs depending on the region, but it is recommended to keep the water clean.

I wanted to use this mansion as a sanatorium for guild members, so I set up a mechanism to circulate bath water and purify it. Some of the nobles have already adopted this technique, but they can use magic stones that contain the power of the Spirit of Water and Spirit of Fire to purify and chase fire.

(Well, it cost money... but I'd like to create a stable source of magic stones.)

I don't even want to contribute to the technological development of Wang Dynasty, but I don't think it's a waste not to go all the way to the ordinary people even though there are convenient technologies.

Leave it and I'll take off my clothes and go into the bathroom. Just wrap a towel around your waist, take a hot bath, and then wash your body.

"... hmm?

A dragon-like pattern floats around your chest. It appears to have come out after a fight with a snake, but it won't go away even after rubbing it.

But when I thought, "Go away," I couldn't see the pattern. And I realize that the Legion Dragon's abilities are "usable" without having to carry a core.

(... you've mastered the monster's abilities. Isn't it strange that you can understand the principle after using it once?)

If you can use your abilities without a core, collecting a core when you defeat a powerful monster will eventually throb your heart out for strength like a boy.

Speaking of which, when I borrowed Cody's Light Sword, there was a response that the natural spirit magic using the power of the sword spirit could be reproduced to some extent if I wanted to do it.

I flushed my body, drowned in a hot tub, and then tried some magic using the power of the sword spirit - the ability to manipulate the light.

(― ― Refract the light around you to make you invisible. Transparency (Invisible)...

There are many ways to use light. If the swordsmanipulation theory of the swordsmanipulation of light had been in mind, the application would have worked as much as it could.

And my attempt goes well, woosh, I can't see myself anymore.

Combined with 'Hidden', you can completely disorient yourself. This might be useful if I were to conduct an undercover mission soon.

Miralka's faction magic hasn't caught up with her deployment speed yet. While performing Legion Bursts, I was able to rely on Miralka to deploy, receive and utilize them, so I was able to put a destruction team on the slash, but it seems difficult on my own.

I think I can do some things about everyone else's abilities, but I can't imitate Yuma's purification alone. Because I have to have a magical connection with Eileen and Verlaine, so I'm not all-powerful either.

"Thanks to everyone at the party...."

I couldn't help thanking you for not listening, but I was soaking in the water and breathing invisibly, and I saw the bathroom door slam open.

"Phew, the waking morning is a bath after all. It's already past noon."

"What are you talking about? You were in a hurry to tell me Dick wasn't here."

"Where did you go, Dick?

"He was in the kitchen a while ago. They teach me how to cook, and then they go somewhere."

I sat in the back of the bathtub and watched the girls coming in one after the other, while being held back by the hot air.

Of course, there is no way to solve the problem of transparency. In a situation where it is even difficult to breathe, I begin to fully explore the possibility of getting out of here alive while receiving a splash of water poured from the lion-shaped water outlet on the side.

(Guys, you didn't realize I was changing... why you let your guard down here, even though the kingdom's most powerful face is here. Not at all.)

"This bath feels so good, I wish I could go in every day."

"Ah, um... Eileen, you're not hiding anything at all. I'm a little embarrassed."

"I'm a little embarrassed, too. This is the first time we've had a bath together."

Cody said that, but the part about how loose the chest guard is and how tight it is with the salad all the time - no, I can almost see it.

Miralka had a tight guard and a towel wrapped up and down tightly. Still the navel was visible, but Yuma wrapped a large towel and was the least exposed of the four.

(If you're observing...), mitigate as much as you can. Though you never get past it, always assume the worst, me!

I dived in the water without a sound. It is subtly hot near the water inlet. Magically, if the heat is relieved, it may affect transparency, so it moves to the bottom and away from the water inlet.

I'm in the back of the bathtub from the washroom, so unless I dare to go into the back, I can live. Obtaining oxygen supply even in water is the most natural way to interfere with water spirits, and infinite diving is possible if you don't climb up. By the way, it's impossible to leave the bathroom secretly, you'll notice when you open the door.

But if you think about it, it's not strange for Yuma to sense my presence at the wavelength of her soul - did I use Yuma's help to increase her ability to hide so much that she could even detect her soul? It was unexpected that I would notice such a thing.

Miralka and Yuma, I'll flush your back, so why don't you take off the towel? It feels so good to be free. "

"Ah, you're always full of emancipation... because you really have to bra every day."

"My mother tells me that I don't need it yet, but that's not true, is it?

"Maybe it's time... for me to say"

"It's the most liberating feeling of Cody, isn't it? If I'm exposed, it's going to rip apart just because I'm serious."

It seems like a salad that starts flying with Eileen's demonization. But I didn't think the conversation outside could be heard so clearly in the water. Because I'm exerting an unusual concentration?

After all, Miralka and Yuma took off their towels and started washing their bodies. I don't even know if Eileen is flushing her back. Apparently Cody is at a distance from the other three.

"Still, Dick, you know too many women. If I look away a little, I'll see more of them before I know it."

"I wonder how the master of that indigo maiden pavilion related to Dick... it seemed like he had something in mind."

"Even now that she's blind, she's still trying to improve as Kensei (Blade Saint). Maybe Dick, stronger than himself, is a precious thing."

"I'm as happy as I am that Dick is admired. Then, the soul bound by bonds will eventually go to the promised land....."

"You're sick again... no, I wonder if that's what you're doing. But don't accidentally purify Beatrice, Dick will get mad at you."

Even Beatrice will not be able to be cleansed by accident, but it is Yuma's excellence that there are no such mistakes.

(But... you're going to get angry. Doesn't it finally look like Miralka to be worried about me... what is this feeling...)

Since the refractive index of the light entering the water is likely to be manipulated, we can see the sight outside, but it becomes a peek.

If they come in where I happen to be transparent, it's an accident, but if I see them naked by my will, it's intentional and I'm despised.

- Kill the feeling you want to see. I'm water, I'm water. Heartless, heartless...

"Even so... hah. When I see that, I can't face Dick...."

"Well, you don't look happy anyhow... it's a shameful face."

"... you've been very tight. You're not as big as your father, but you look so tough...."

"Dick always puts several times as much weight on his body as the Knights do every day. That's why I look cool... I want to catch up with you, but you can't let me. We've partied with a hell of a lot of people."

(It's not like I don't want to be caught up with you, but if you're alarmed, your body gets dull right away... if everyone wants to, you can put a load on it.)

But if you think about what happens when you put the same muscle strain on a woman as I do, you can't do that. Instead of training, Miralka and Yuma will fall asleep with muscle pain.

"... but I knew I needed what he was doing. If Dick hadn't been Dick, we wouldn't have survived."

"That's true. I'm either sweet or I'm SSS ranked, but I can't do that much... I'm always getting Dick to help me pinch."

"He says he's dexterity, but he's a high standard that can never be imitated outside of our specialty. I'm an unexpected student... and I was surprised when he lent me the book he was reading."

"And yet, you behave like you're not trying. Dick is a humble walker dressed in clothes."

If you keep integrating with the water and listening to the praise of the four people who think I'm gone, I'm going to make a mistake.

"... I knew there was only Dick, a man like me who wouldn't let me look at him."

"That... might be so. He has the right to choose, so I'm afraid he's going to be desperate."

"Miralka doesn't really deny it anymore. I used to be so bad with Dick that I wouldn't even praise him for standing up."

"That's not true. Miralka trusted Dick when she left after the crusade, and she was very worried that Dick would disappear from King's Landing....."

I think that's what Miralka would have said if he was a friend, so he was a little worried - quite different.

"... because I don't think we'll be able to fight satisfactorily if there's as much of a crisis as the Devil after Dick's gone."

"Eh, that's the direction? If Dick went far away, you'd miss him.

"If you say that, Dick laughs like a kid. I'm two years younger than him, but I don't want to be seen by younger people."

"Me too... I'm four years old, but I want you to look at me as an adult."

(... I didn't mean to worry about younger people...)

I still don't have enough experience to get to know women's minds. Is it because Miralka was aware that I was older?

Yuma was nine years old when she first met me, and I can't deny that she was a child, but even her parents felt sensitive.

"Sherry and the others seem to like Dick, and it's time to hurry."

"... I think it's still okay. Dick seems to accept it, and so do the people around him."

"Where's the manager of Verlaine? I live with Dick, but I wonder if there's anything really going on."

"I don't think so. I know because I touched Dick's soul."

It is true that there is nothing, but it is time for me to be like a rat, so it is hard to listen to me silently anymore, why have I become transparent?

"Dick's soul is a complex color, but a beautiful soul that doesn't yet know about filth. It's like white snow that no one has stepped into... oh, I want to touch his soul again..."

"... I wonder if men can endure it forever. If you don't take a good look at Dick's trends, he might come off."

"Haha... from what I've seen, you guys are a lot better off, but I'm scared if it comes off."

"Hauu... no, I can't say back. But don't you think it's healthier to think about it than not to think about it?

Nobody contests Eileen. Even a priestly Yuma - no, in this conversation, it feels like Yuma is most honest with herself.

"Even Cody was seen by Dick when he was training, right?

"Ah... well, that's because... when you train, men and women have nothing to do with it. If he's the only one I've seen, it's fine."

"I don't have that look on my face. Don't provoke Dick too much, he's got a lot to endure."

"I think Miralka is more patient... and I hope you're all honest. It's not just magic, it's touching your soul, it's understanding more than words. I'm right there when I promise."

(I wonder if it's right there... yes, I wonder. Touching my soul doesn't seem very pure...)

"Still, if Mr Rimse lived together, then Dick would be in trouble too."

"... it seems to be weak for older women, but especially for her. I wonder if Dick would like to be sweet."

"We want to be in a position where Dick can keep his back, too. Because I think Rimserit is in that position."

"... you have big breasts and beautiful silver hair. I don't feel like being a woman."

Suddenly, when you are evaluated as a woman, you feel something very embarrassed and guilty.

When I saw her naked in the shower, I awoke to my awareness of the opposite sex - that feeling was still being dragged, and there was a conflict when I hugged my master.

"But... I hope you'll get along better with Mr. Rimse from now on without all that. He's the one Dick admires."

"I see. I find it very interesting how she influenced Dick... is it time to immerse herself in a hot tub?

(Ah... well, that's not good...!

"It's nice to have a large bath. There was a hot spring near my parents' house, but it was big enough to swim. Like this."

"Eileen, swimming is... you're already a person."

Eileen is swimming in my direction. And I raise my gaze with transparency - what enters my sight is somehow blocked by underwater bubbles, etc., but it was the balanced nudity of the completed female militant.

(... wow. I want to lose all vocabulary except "awesome")

Swimming along with a sip, she comes to where I am, and she puts her hand on the inner wall of the tub. And then he stuck his feet across my place.

"Eileen, you're too shabby."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I had so much fun watching the spacious bath."

"I know how you feel. When everyone returns to their innocent children, they regain their free souls when they knew nothing."

"At this temperature, I'm going to get up right away....."

Everyone gets along well, swimming close to Eileen, and soaking in the water to the shoulders.

If I raise my face now - but if I do, I won't be able to forgive myself as part of this party.

But if I dare say so, I won't let anyone hear it, but the truth is...

(... it's over as a man not to look, isn't it? I want to be an Alliance Master and a healthy man)

I try to raise my face. It's not a sin if you're not noticed, and nobody gets hurt. But are you sure? Admit it, I'm about to commit a crime. But this is the sin I need in my life.

I've been distracted from my youth for a long time. Such blue days are over today.

"Ladies and gentlemen, something is flying from the northeast sky towards King's Landing!

A moment before she tried to raise her face, Manarina's voice echoed in the bathroom.

"Northeast... in the direction of the Elserian Demon Kingdom. Let's get dressed and get out of the way."

"Well, we have to hurry as much as we can. Thank you, Princess Manarina."

"I have to tidy up and come back to the Mansion. What about Yuma?

"I'll go with you. If it's the Demon King Army, you can see the soul and decide if there's hostility."

Four people stand up and go out of the bath. I couldn't stay submerged, so I stood up with a small sound of water.

"... even though there's nobody here, it sounds like water... I'm sure it's your fault."

After Manarina left alone, I finally unlocked Invisibility. Looking back on Heaven and Hell, somehow with your arms around you.

There are accidents like this, so don't try magic with your imagination. Especially since it is dangerous to make it transparent in the bath, I would like to prohibit it in the future - I never think it would be a waste.

More than that, it's whether or not the sky is the enemy. I once wondered if Elsein's demonic kingdom had marked me for the disappearance of Verlaine, but there was no denying that it was true. Anyway, you might want Verlaine to accompany you.

◆ ◇ ◆

After the four of them changed and left the dressing room, I carefully dried my hair before putting on my clothes, and I came out to the front yard of the mansion.

"Dick, I can see it from that distance, but it's a black dragon. A dragon inhabiting the kingdom of demons... and someone is riding it. However, you are raising the flag of the demon kingdom. Apparently, they didn't start a war."

Dick, where have you been? My hair is dry and dry. "

Eileen pushed me in, but I decided to push through. I have a headache just thinking about what happens when I explain it.

"Never mind the details. Did a messenger come from the kingdom of the devil, or... Verlaine, what do you think?

"Mmm... maybe not... but it's too shallow. I think it's a mistake....."

Verlaine is cloudy. Which means I have an idea.

"I'll be ready to intimidate you with a light sword at any time. If they attack us, we cannot harm the people of King's Landing."

"Oh, just in case."

Cody puts his hand on a black dragon approaching from a distant sky. It's the horrible thing about her "Horizon Barrett" that gets hit at this distance.

The Black Dragons form a formation of five and fly evenly. On the back of the dragon is the people of Elsein - dark elves with armor.

Eventually, the Black Dragon froze and drowned in the sky overlooking the King's City. The rider increased his voice with magic, and the voice of the boy often echoed throughout King's Landing.

Tell those who belong to the Kingdom of Albain and fought Queen Elsein XII! I am Elsein XIII! I'll get my ancestral queen back!

- Elsein XIII. In other words, the brother who succeeded Verlaine and became the Devil King.

Becoming a Demon King was probably an adult, but the voice belonged to the boy. Although it is a dark elf, it is likely that the body will grow slower than its age.

If I don't hear back, I can send a black-fire rain to King Alvinas with the Five Horse Black Dragons! If you don't want to do that, my sister... show up those who defeated the Queen XII! I will relieve the demon kingdom of its humiliation by riding dragons and recapture the queen!

Dragon Riding Battle - This is a duel that is not held in this country, but is often held in countries with deep ties to dragons. The dragon riders compete with each other to decide whether to win or lose, and the winners sometimes make the losers drink, and in some countries, it is said that the dragon knight promotion test is held.

I wonder how Verlaine would react. She looked at me and looked at me as if she were relying on me for a moment.

And let not the people of the kingdom know that Verlaine is the devil king. If she is widely known, she will not be able to stay in King's Landing.

"All right... everyone, wait there. It's a critical distance, but I'm going to 'answer' it."

"Dean, be careful. Don't get too excited."

"... I'm sorry, master. You don't have to hide me. This is what I left behind."

Until now, Verlaine had avoided describing in detail how she had left the kingdom of the devil. Perhaps Verlaine's younger brother thinks that the reason her sister didn't come back was because she was defeated by our Demon King Crusaders.

And Verlaine didn't think his brother would come to pick him up. That's why you don't want to bother me.

― ― However, even if it is the responsibility of the ancestral queen, she is a necessary talent for my guild, and I don't want her to get out easily.

"Verlaine, didn't you say so first? When you join my guild."

"When I said I couldn't, I rolled in....."

"That's not true. You seem to have forgotten, but I told you."

I smile bitterly when I see Verlaine looking puzzled.

You always show me a disgraceful attitude like an ex-Demonic King, but as soon as my brother arrives, he makes me look sorry. He wasn't feminine at all - most of all, Verlaine had always known she wasn't a very strong woman.

"I won't go any further than I belong to my guild, unless I'm convinced by the Master. Even if the guild member's family comes to pick him up, they follow the rules."

He looks at Verlaine's deep purple eyes. She looked back without turning a blind eye - and looked suspicious.

"... then, if Master is convinced, do I have to go home?

"What's up? You're feeling better. I've come all the way out of the ordinary, and you can't go home before you get what's important from me."

Verlaine, who had an unexpected face, gradually calmed down and regained her usual leeway. When she laughed for the first time in a long time, she put her hand on her chest and said.

"... my assumptions are a little intense, but he's an important brother to me. Please soften your hands."

"Ah, leave it to me... then, everyone, just give me a minute. I'll say hello."

I felt it was quite difficult to make a short transition during the battle, but now I feel like I have broken one wall. Above King's Landing, flying dragons look like bean grains, but I "fly" at once while magically regulating the atmospheric pressure around my body.

(Oops... before flying. The Devil still won't know who I am.)

― ― Transition instantaneous speed (warp boost) shrinkage (zero distance) ―

"Nh... no, what's going on...?!

Of the five dragons, one - the guards of Elsein XIII - put me on top of the head of the dragon on which I was riding, and I appeared.

(It's so expensive... even if it falls...)

"You... what's with that mask?! I told you to turn back your ancestral queen!

"I'm sorry, Devil King. My name is Sebastian and I work as a butler in the Mansion of King's Landing. I'll see you later."

"Bullshit... how did you get to this height! You can fly in the sky with magic!

Elsein XIII, riding the Black Dragon, was convinced that he was Verlaine's brother. He doesn't even change his voice, and looks like a boy around ten years old.

According to my rule of thumb, the Adventurer Strength of the current Demon King has reached SS rank. Verlaine just gave up his throne, and he seems to have the strength. The gear was light, but he was wearing a cloak like a demon king and a horned helmet on his head.

And I was riding a black dragon on my head, a female knight who looked younger than Verlaine, but as old as me. The black spear is divided into three parts and seems to be quite a good weapon.

"Shall I insult my king, savage man in a suspicious mask? Elsein's proud Kintetsu Knight Spear will make you a skewer!

"Whoa, you should stop. I don't want to fight, but if I attack here, I'll have to stun you and manipulate the dragon. I won't drop it, but it's quite dangerous."

"Nh... come on, you! Taunt this Irina Buffon, the leader of the Guards!

"Irina, poke! Don't point that rude masked man at me!

"Yes, poke it! With your fierce spear, Irina!

(If you look closely, all the guards are women... and all are older than the Demon King)

"Haaah!... that?

"That's why I told you not to. I just want to talk to His Majesty the Devil. I want you to leave me alone."

With two fingers, I stopped the spear tip with my fingers. The spear comes out of Irina's hand when she pulls it.

"That's right... my battle rating is 10,000 to 24, and even the Knight Elsein is said to be the best talent..."

"Sire, this man is dangerous! Retreat temporarily and set up the system!

"Yes, the safety of His Majesty the Demon King is the best wish of the Elsein people....."

"Ah, it's annoying! Don't follow me from the beginning if it's just a twitch!

(Don't struggle with the Demon King... he's too far apart from his men and he's not your escort. Shouldn't we have brought him from the Roku?

"Hah, hah... I'm sorry, I showed you something ugly. You look ridiculous, but you're not the only one."

"I'm just a butler, but I know Verlaine. She is the ancestral demon king in this kingdom. Your Majesty, I have a suggestion to make. Instead of accepting Your Majesty's proposed dragon battle, I would ask you not to reveal Verlaine's identity."

"... does my sister want to live in this country even if she hides her identity? Aren't those brave men threatening you?

After all, it seems that we Demon King Crusaders are not very fond of Elsein Demon Kingdoms. There's nothing I can do about it.

"I heard that she had her ideas and was staying in the King's City. I have too much to wonder about your feelings for His Majesty's sister. But could you please take into account Verlaine's feelings?"

"What the hell are you... on top of your sister?

"I am in a position to know how Verlaine lives in the King's City. I think it is also necessary that she speak directly with His Majesty the Demon King, but the Demon King Crusaders do not threaten Verlaine, nor are they hostile to her. But if you want to turn her in, I'm ready for the Dragon Ride."

The present demon king was listening to me. And I closed my eyes - I said words that made Verlaine and her sister feel like brothers.

"Hmm... I think you're being tampered with by something. You don't seem to be lying, masked man. There seem to be a lot of weirdos in Albain's strong."

"I'm sorry. Please forgive me if I can only touch you in such a costume."

"No, if you're pretending, there are people in the demonic kingdom who are more flashy and people who look strange. Don't judge them by their appearance."

He's such an honest boy - that's why he's here, worried about his sister. The King himself understood the danger of bringing in signs.

The Black Dragon of the present Demon King is probably the best dragon owned by Elsein. I feel like competing with the dragon. Of course I'm not going to lose, I'm going to fight with all my might and leave Verlaine in my guild.

I am in a lot of trouble when you leave now. I thought I would have to return the talisman one day, but I arrived here at a different time, and under the premise of Verlaine, the tavern department of the silver water bottle pavilion is stable.

"... well, tell your sister. If I win, Elsein will return home. Just writing like that won't convince Julius."

Julius Elsein. Except for the middle name of the royal family of the demonic kingdom, which seems to be the name of Verlaine's brother.

"Yes, I will tell you. As for the date and time of the Dragon War....."

"We will now return to the fort beyond the border. Seven days later, when the sun rises to the heart of heaven, you will reach the northern valley of Albain. I will fight on behalf of Elsein."

Dragon Riding in the Valley - a race to see how well the dragon can fly.

There is no athlete in Albain. In seven days, I will have to hone my dragon riding skills or train someone with aptitude - the former will be realistic.

I've been on a dragon species since Wyburn.

"The Albain side will also select the delegates, and we will make sure we get them to the Northern Valley on time."

"Ah... wait! The man in the mask, fight me! This humiliation would've forgotten!

When I give Irina back her spear, she tries to get her energy back and sell me a fight.

It will be difficult for the Guards to pull it out, but it's been a long time since I met someone with bones that I want. I want to be friendlier with Elsein than I am now.

"Now, if you'll excuse me... Your Majesty Julius"

"Wait, how are you going to get back... what...!?

I jump back and activate Transfer Magic while falling. By combining "super acceleration" and "deceleration", simulated metastasis is possible.

There are many things I want to say to King Elsein, but I just pretend to have drunk the terms proposed by the opponent, and I'm not motivated to give up winning.

"Master...!

Verlaine rushes back in front of the Mansion. I took off my mask and raised my thumb.

"The negotiations are over. Representatives of Albain and Elsein mount dragon battles in the Northern Valley. The representative over there is King Julius."

"... my brother, in the demon kingdom, there is nothing to the right of a dragon rider. But there's no Dragon Knight in Albain... because he only sees it in the country, and he doesn't know that."

"I felt like I was still young. However, it would be rather cumbersome to negotiate directly with His Majesty the King of Albain. I think it would be better to sit round at my place so long as it is a discussion between the country and the country. Verlaine is my guild problem."

"... and I knew it was an unfavourable battle, like dragon riding..."

I laugh when I see Verlaine who is seriously mistaken.

If it's a battle that you think is unfavourable, I haven't had it from the beginning. Instead of winning, I only intend to win from the beginning. Verlaine's family was only convinced that this was the shortest way to set her free.

"... Master, do you think this is an opportunity to... mount a dragon battle?

"That's true, but the first thing I want is for you to convince yourself and leave. If they lose the match, they will accept all our terms."

Release Verlaine from royal duty. That's what I want from Julius.

She would not have escaped royalty - but things would have changed if the present King Elsein had admitted it.

"Wow, I... rolled myself into your master's place... and I haven't done anything like that yet... why would you do that for me..."

I started working in my guild house to get my talisman back.

I didn't want Verlaine to assume that I was really annoying.

"Dick is not so thoughtless as to let 'selfish' people live with him. Riding a dragon battle is a new battle because you think there is a chance. This guy won't move until he calculates it."

"Miralka is saying something that doesn't bother her anymore. Hey, Cody, why aren't our friends being so honest?

"Eileen can't talk about people either. Sure, me too."

"Dick thinks Verlaine really needs it, so he's in charge of the store owner. That's what you can see at a glance."

"... but... I don't know what you think of me like that..."

I appreciate it and trust it. But did I ever tell Verlaine that in the form of a compliment?

"... uh... what? It was definitely Verlaine who gave me a drink at the counter. Look at that. Didn't you see that?

"Hmm... but can't you be a little more honest? I don't think you're being praised....."

It's my bad habit, so I'd like to ask for forgiveness. Either way, I can't let Verlaine go now, that's my decision as an employer.

"Dee, you're thinking that you can't let go easily because you're an employer, or you're not being honest."

"It's not too far without hitting it... but just because it's easy to understand, don't hit it."

"Better yet, Dick, I hope the Demon King has temporarily retreated, but the people of King's City may be confused. We have to let them know there's no problem."

As chief of the Knights Corps, Cody is concerned about the chaos in King's Landing. I was wondering if I could do something about it.

The Støren carriage, which was supposed to be visiting us at night, is coming to us. When I stopped a little further, Primiere came down, following his servant from inside.

"It was a little early, but I wanted to talk to you about something, so I took the time to talk to you. Lord Dick Silver... The dragon flying earlier, did the Demon King Crusaders retreat?

"Duke Stolen, I have a favor to ask you. Could you tell the people of King's Landing that there is no danger that the Black Dragon of Elsein will attack us? The people of King's Landing will be more relieved to hear from the nobles than from our guild."

"If that's what you say... I understand. I'll have my family send a message. You've all heard Lord Dick. Immediately inform King's Landing that there is no danger."

Primiere's servants scatter to execute their orders faithfully. You followed my instructions without a word or two because you appreciated the Snake Crusade.

And when she gets close to me - I bet she does. Though the housekeeper did not see it, he poked his knee and hung his head.

"I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Duke of Støren for saving the Kingdom's crisis. I want to give my family as much credit as I can....."

"Raise your head, Lord Primiere. I'd rather see to it than that. The fact that I once owned this mansion and the fact that the Stolens summoned Beatrice."

"... eventually, I thought I should come here and talk to you. My father promoted the study of summoning magic, but my father's responsibility is also mine. I'm really sorry about Beatrice. No amount of apology is forgiven."

Primiere lowers his head again. I looked back and called Beatrice, who was watching with a nervous look from afar.

As Beatrice approached Primiere, she knelt herself on the ground and touched her shoulders.

"I was protecting this mansion under a contract with the Stolen family. But now I'm part of Dick's family. And I think it's happier than ever. I never hate the Stolen family. That summons led us to our fate."

"... Beatrice... I'm sorry. I couldn't do anything for you....."

"Don't cry... you're a really nice woman. I still yearn for Primiere. If you have a beautiful heart like a mirror, please laugh."

From the beginning, there was no trouble between the two of us. Primiere didn't hate Beatrice and abandoned the Mansion, he just didn't have the means to confront the gathering ghosts.

The pressure on Primiere, who was still young and the main player and carried one of the three Dukes, would not have been common.

The guild of King's Landing now has more power than the nobles. But I do not intend to rule by excluding royalty or nobility. If the aristocracy runs wild and leads the war, we'll have to move, but Primiere won't have to worry about it.

Eventually Beatrice pulled his hand and Primiere stood up.

"It is undoubtedly the Demon King Crusaders who have protected the people of this country. None of our nobles can help us... but Lord Dick... no. Dick gave us a role earlier. Remember to be grateful for that, and I want to do my part for people to be ashamed of my position."

I just took that word as a declaration of the Duke's future.

If you think about it, even the Duke can be moved by my policy.

While I was wondering if it was really okay for me to take control of this country sooner or later - I decided to root it out for Primiere so that my name would not appear on the public list any more.
