Takeo and the others take the streets relaxed... Takeo is riding today.

"... it's a hassle"

Takeo mutters on the ride.

"Lord Kitamizato, what is it?

"Hmm? Oh... have I put it into words?

Your Highness Cliff came yesterday while you were sleeping.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

"Ho... that does sound like a hassle.

Meyer laughs bitterly, too.

"Yeah, I was coming to sell thanks to me and Victor.

"Really?

So, did you even promise to improve the treatment of Lord Victor and the others by defending the idea of Lord Kitamizato?

"There was a little more escape, but you're probably right.

"You don't seem to think it makes much sense. You owe me.

Besides, Lord Kitamizato treats his men, not as slaves.

I don't think you'll be forced to improve your treatment that much.

"Yeah.

And Lord Cliff overlooks the basics...

I didn't pay special attention to nobility in the first place, did I? "

Takeo sighs.

"Oh... Andersen has reported to me with surprise.

'Lord Kitamizato's thoughts are a little weird, but you're right in a way.

Oh, don't you think it'd be fun to have more freaks like that? 'Or so he said.

"Really?

Will you ask about the area in a personal interview when you return to Wang Du?

"Ah... secrecy that I spoke..."

"... well, I guess we'll all have an interview anyway when we get back to Wang Du, so let's hear it then.

Now about the nobility, I told Mr. Andersen, too.

I'm not a nobleman because I want to be in the first place, am I?

If you want me to give it back now, it's good enough that I gave it back.

Takeo sighs.

"" Huh!?

Victor and Gina marvel at Takeo's words.

"Hmm? What's up?

"No... the... Lord Meyer, is nobility not a privileged class in the kingdom of Azpur?

"No, the kingdom of Azpar is a privileged class, just like the demonic kingdom.

"The Lord says he doesn't need a privileged class?

Victor asks with a startled look on his face.

"Yes. Mr. Meyer, Victor, Gina, I'll say it right at this time.

It means little to me to be a nobleman.

You don't have to be noble to do research, and you'll make money from cooking, clothing, etc.

Still, Your Majesty made me aristocratic, probably because if I compare the damage the state would take in the event of an outflow from the country to the amount of compensation it would pay me, and also because I anticipate the benefit of being able to use my knowledge in the country if I were to run the institute.

At this point, His Majesty's relationship with me is not a subordinate relationship between a king and an ordinary nobleman, but a reciprocal relationship from His Majesty that brings research funds, from me, knowledge.

In the first place, the idea of the institute began that I wanted to do private research.

That's the development of a story where His Majesty finances it from the state, so give it a tip of knowledge.

So as far as I'm concerned, the restraints from the country are loose.

"... I know the Lord is special.

But is that possible?

"Well... Mr. Meyer.

I'd like to hear your opinion as captain of the Wang Du Defense Corps...

What if I lead the Knights from another country into the kingdom of Azpur?

"... it's quite a hassle.

You won't lose, but this one is also devastating.

So I don't think His Majesty's thinking is wrong.

Words are bad, but it would be safer to grant the title to Lord Kitamizato to ban the outflow from the country, and to pay a large salary to make him an adult within the kingdom.

Meyer makes a difficult face.

"I'm letting the Wang du defense force be placed in my proximity as a collar from the royal family.

Mr. Meyer, will you do my collar properly?

"Normally, do you say so yourself?

Meyer sighs.

"If you don't have to tell me, I'll tell the people who will.

Connect to Your Majesty for a report.

Takeo pleasantly tells Meyer.

"I get it... ha... it's going to be more trouble.

I was dreaming of an elegant hiding life... "

"What are you talking about?

You'll still be working for me.

Besides, I'm willing to give you a lot of tactical reflection, research progress, budget management, etc.

Be prepared, Chief Inspector.

"Ugh... Director Kitamizato is too scared..."

"What are you talking about?

The hardest part seems to be the face of the test platoon.

Because I'm also going to let you train that you wouldn't have done before.

I was wondering if there was any backlash?

"Huh?... what do you mean..."

Meyer asks terribly.

"Do you want me to fight Ku's adult state for now?

"Huh!? I'm going to die.

"I'm not going to die. I'll make sure all the magician platoons on Elvis territory recover properly.

Shall we just go see the abyss of death?

Because it's going to be hard in the future if you don't shatter the pride of the Wang Du defense team and make them take their subsequent training seriously.

You'll have trouble shielding me.

"Nobody has to shield or anything..."

"You shouldn't trust cheap words. Fear can only be stained on you.

Absolutely obey my orders, and if you refuse, Ku or Kola group... are you re-educating in one way or another?

"Um... Lord Korra seems easier... but no, I'm talking about Lord Kitamizato... so did you let him govern the demons in that area... maybe with all that?

"Oh? Am I getting it?

Would you like me to take care of either a cu or a few Elvis territory masters?

Oh, but I wonder if it's light to the King's Capital defensemen to the extent of Cora.

And would it feel better if I, Victor, and Gina joined the fight?

"No, no, no, please stop.

Please stop him for real.

Meyer begs.

"Mr. Meyer, I care too much.

Are the Wang Capital Guards a few elite?

I think it's okay, and... we're still in the conceptual stage.

And Takeo laughs couscous.

"I'm afraid it's going to happen when Lord Kitamizato proposes it.

Meyer tells me as she gets discouraged.

And because Cliff and Ashton's lineup to go forward stopped, so do Takeo and the others.

"Lord Kitamizato, His Highness Cliff is here for you.

And, the Knights' soldiers deliver the message.

"Okay. Okay, let's go, too, Mr. Meyer.

"Yes."

and Takeo and Meyer set everyone aside for the beginning of the line.
