The half-baked study was finished for now by servants and maids.

I can't help being there, so I'm out in the yard.

Under the starry sky, check your abilities.

―――――――――――

Ability is completely back to normal.

If it hasn't increased or decreased, it hasn't.

That one with the meteorite in his hand seems temporary, and when he knocks down that tentacle, he seems to return.

Also check all the abilities of the five bodies just in case.

I did the sequence I put on in the mock fight I did last minute in order from the bottom and ended up with the Bahamut industry flame.

A ball of flame that sticks out with its palms up and floats about ten centimeters above its palms.

The glowing balls of flame lit up the area around them as bright as daylight.

"Ooh!!

I hear admiration from behind.

Turning around, Don was coming back.

"That's right, Your Highness, even in that terrific battle - you were holding back your strength."

Don was obviously amazed to see the "wow" balls of flame.

"More than that, you got him"

"Ha, he brought it to Nisil in person, and a servant delivered it to His Highness's mansion. Just..."

"Just?"

"When I went, he seemed happy that he was' waiting '. Here comes the reward, in the sense that. Even if I threatened him a little, he said," I picked up the meteorite and carved the letters. "

"You mean you were just going to do sesame seeds?

"I feel that way. Of course, there's the possibility of acting, so I'm keeping him interrogated."

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you."

"Ha."

Even so, Don stopped reporting. He stepped back.

I hope your abilities are back, but one thing, you've left a mystery.

Once a year, the sealed prince is obliged to return to the capital to report to His Majesty on the current state of the sealed rule.

It was that time of year, so I was Nishil - and I was leaving Almeria and coming back to the capital where I was born and raised.

Do not return to the thirteenth prince's mansion in the capital, but visit the royal palace in a straight line.

When I asked the face-to-face officer for a guide to His Majesty, he was immediately sent to the study.

Into the study, I kneel one knee in front of His Majesty in a way I'm used to.

"Oh, it's Noah."

"Shen Noah, I'm here for your annual report."

"Right or right. I heard more than that. You defeated quite a few monsters with one sword, didn't you?"

Still ears fast, Your Majesty.

I already caught it, even though it was just before I left.

"That's Noah, that's the prince of my 'Warrior Country'"

His Majesty was in such a good mood.

The official name of the empire is "Milace Empire," in the old language it means "Warrior Nation".

The prince of that warrior's kingdom showed his strength in battle.

His Majesty is very pleased with the matter.

"I have not neglected my daily refinement as I have deposited not only Almeria but also Alert from His Majesty."

"Hmm. We should continue to encourage you more"

"Ha. As for -"

"Oh, that was a report. That's good now."

His Majesty stopped my report.

I tilted my neck and looked at His Majesty wondering.

"The envoy of diplomacy is here, so I have to see him first for the rest. Noah must be present."

[]/(exp, adj-na) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk)

Diplomacy is the norm.

His Majesty stood up and left the study after saying so.

I'll follow.

We proceeded inside the royal palace, and it was the Great Hall that was brought.

The basics are similar in construction to those between the sights, but only His Majesty's throne is set on a high platform about the second floor high.

It's not an executive, it's a hall to use when you want to emphasize authority, such as a diplomatic envoy.

First and third prime ministers had already refrained under the platform, and several other officials and clerks had stambared.

His Majesty slowly climbed to the high ground, and I stood under the platform, beside the Third Chancellor.

I'm familiar with the old days, but there's no reason to say hello here, so I just exchanged courtesies with each other.

And his majesty sat on the throne, and the mighty officer at the gate said with a high voice.

"Messenger of Luci Tsari, come in"

Luci Tsari?

That's the first name I've ever heard. Not like the kingdom of Lucy?

After waiting awhile to think about that, a man came in from outside.

A man with shallow black skin and a beard.

When the man reached the designated spot, he thanked him on one knee, albeit in an unspoiled motion on the spot.

And say something.

It's a word I'm not used to hearing.

"It is an honor to meet Your Majesty," he said.

One of the officials refraining told His Majesty.

I see. You mean the interpreter?

When His Majesty nodded to Eagle Deep, the man said something more.

The interpreter who heard it to the end frowned.

"Uh, I came... great, the... of, the messenger. To His Majesty the Greater Emperor... that, I have a favor to ask."

Interpreters who interpret to various places.

His Majesty stared at the interpreter. Naturally, I can tell by the side, the interpreter doesn't translate well.

The stared interpreter became sweaty.

"First, ask what Luci Tsari is."

"Ha!"

The interpreter told the man on one knee.

Again, His Majesty's expression became uncomfortable.

I don't know the words, but the man they're talking to is twisting his neck and wondering over and over again.

Obviously, I can see the words aren't getting through well.

"Again, no."

On the side, Third Chancellor Jean-Brad Raydok said softly so I could hear him alone.

"You know something?

"That sounds like an even more southern dialect in Lucian. It would be difficult for a regular interpreter."

"I see."

I nodded.

Roussi refers to the Kingdom of Russia north of the Empire.

The absurdity of temperament seen by the whole people, coupled with a trend of emphasis on force no less than that of the Empire.

Also known as the country of the brakes.

Naturally, there is a little trouble with the Empire, and the interpreters are always there because they need to negotiate for it.

As most interpreters do, the dialect is difficult even if the standard language can be interpreted.

Not good, Your Majesty's mood is slowly getting worse.

Where I thought it would be.

"Leave it to me."

And I heard Bahamut.

(Leave it to me?)

"We transcend men and are capable of communicating with every man and will"

What's this all about? Thought so.

'So tell His Majesty the Emperor. On behalf of Luci Tsari, I am an emissary who has come to form an alliance with the Empire.'

Until just now, I had no idea what the man was saying, so I could see clearly.

The way it sounds, be it Bahamut's words or Leviathan's emotions.

Like that, an unknown word that came into my ear reached my head in an understandable sense.

"I'll tell him."

When I opened my mouth, both the messenger man and the interpreter were surprised.

I turned to His Majesty and said as I looked up.

"I'm afraid I do. This man stands for Luci Tsari, an allied messenger."

Moments, the inside of the hall squeaks.

"You know what, Noah?"

"Ha."

"... ask what Luci Tsari is."

His Majesty thought a little and told me.

I turn to the man.

"What's Luci Tsari? Isn't that the kingdom of Lucy?

"We have risen from the oppression of Lucy. It has already placed lands in the south of the kingdom, adjacent to the empire, under control. Luci Tsari is the name of our new country. '

I told His Majesty what I heard from the man, as it were.

"Hmm. Wow, Noah is"

His Majesty listened to my interpreter to the end and looked at me with an impressive eye.

... about His Majesty, I'm sure you already know what I just told you.

No, even if it's not His Majesty, it's natural for people at the heart of national politics to know.

Civil strife broke out in a country that was adjacent and in a state of sporadic engagement, partly independent.

It's a serious event that I know what an emperor would be.

I don't know that. I translated it correctly with an interpreter.

"That's just great, Noah. Keep asking for an interpreter."

[]/(exp, adj-na) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk)

"What alliance does Luci Tsari want with the Empire?

"We only stood up because we couldn't stand the oppression of Lucy. I have no intention of being hostile to the great Milace Empire. Wishing for permanent peace on the border '

"The basis for making you believe that."

"Mother of my king, and I am prepared to take my sister hostage."

Immediately after I translated it, the ministers, including the prime ministers, raised their voices simultaneously, "Oh."

A man beckoned me.

Even if the words don't make sense, I can see you translating them correctly in your current reaction.

So much for offering the king's mother and sister to the hostages themselves.

"I got the story. Open up with the chief ministers before responding. Stay back and rest today."

"Thank You Happiness"

The apostle's man stood up after his last courtesy, turning himself over and leaving the Great Hall.

After the messenger was gone, His Majesty asked us.

"As I just heard. I'd like to hear from the lords."

The Third Chancellor took a step and lowered his head gently before answering.

"I don't think I should ride. Even if you're changing your name, Lucy - something that draws on the flow of the country of Rhasai. You shouldn't trust me."

In contrast, the First Chancellor objected.

"We are not engaged with his country. I thought we should take this first and show the breadth of the empire's nostalgia. If you want to remain obedient, I hope to lay low again at dawn, when you are lost and bouncing."

The First Chancellor agrees, the Third Chancellor disagrees.

Focusing on those two, the other ministers also expressed their views one after the other.

After it's all over, Your Majesty turns to me.

"Noah, what do you think?

I thought about it a little bit.

I remember Almeria, Nicil's mansion.

I didn't expect a similar situation here when I was looking for - around the mansion.

"I agree. I think we should rather actively support it."

The ministers made a scene.

"Town down, Noah, for what reason?"

"Yes, if I could explain it on the map"

Somebody hold the map. No.

When His Majesty commanded, the four eunuchs brought a map the size of a flag.

It's a map showing the Empire and the surrounding countries.

I took a pen from the clerk's office and drew another line on the map - above the border between the Empire and the Kingdom of Roussi.

He wrote "The Great Wall" in the area between the border and its line.

"I was wondering if it would be best to shape Luci Tsari's territory in this way"

"Hmm, in such a way as to dimension the empire and the kingdom of Roussi?

"Yes. A long history of indulgence with the Kingdom of Lucia was impossible to eradicate, despite all the means at its disposal. I've never even shown my willingness to reconcile there."

"Uhm."

"Meanwhile, Luci Tsari wants to join hands with the Empire so much that he offers the king's mother and sister as hostages. If so, I thought it would be a good idea to use Luci Tsari to help make it a jetty."

"... I see, it's not a stone castle, it's the Great Wall of the country (,,,)"

[]/(exp, adj-na) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk)

I nodded clearly.

This is what I'm trying to do at the Mansion.

I was assassinated once.

There were people who bought Zoe the maid and tried to poison me.

But Zoe, who owes me something, snitched on me the other way around.

Just like that, I wanted to place myself around the mansion, surrounded by people who owed me a lot of good.

I didn't have enough money this year, so I thought it would be after next year - but I wasn't expecting to come across a similar situation here.

"This way, the Kingdom of Roussi will not be able to reach out to the Empire without at least beating up Roussi Tsari"

Listen to that, Your Majesty.

"Um, that's amazing, Noah. That's a great idea."

"I was wondering if I could sell you a little favor and give you more support. The other side is right after the rebellion, so there must be a shortage of supplies. Almeria's Hojoy will give you an extra million people's food."

"Uhm! You said it well. First Chancellor"

"Ha."

"Look in that direction."

[]/(exp, adj-na) (1) (uk) (uk) (uk)

My proposal was accepted and His Majesty, as well as the ministers, were staring at me with an impressive look.
