48 Mr Fermenia would like to explain something to you.

Shuiming, who figured out how Fermenia came to herself, drinks up the grape water she had at her disposal and then asks her again.

"And you grabbed my foothold so well? You don't get it on the way, do you?

"I heard you were going to the Empire, so there's no such thing as this."

"I see."

Were you able to come after yourself? Speaking of which, he told Armadiyaus and Fermenia about the destination after he left the castle.

When Shuiming remembers that time, Fermenia finally asks him with a rugged face.

"... Lord Swimey, frankly, can you make any mistake because Lord Swimey inspired the great army of demons that were being destroyed?

"Oh, it's me."

"Was it Lord Suimei who defeated that army of demons after all?"

It was awe on her voice and expression. I can't help it. It's been a long time since Shuiming had such an unscrupulous experience.

"Nevertheless, you know I did it all the time."

When Shuiming says so, Fermenia looks as difficult as she was somewhere shuddered.

"What are you talking about? Lord Swimey is the only one who can do something that I know very well and nothing about, and that's not the way to go. Besides, at that time, the Demon General..."

The words that Fermenia uttered were unmissable to Shuiming.

"... you met Rajas"

"Yes, that giant demon general attacked me just when I joined Lord Brave in the plains, but that's when I asked him, and he said he was hit by a man in black named Mage...... you know, Lord Swimey? How did you do it?

As Fermenia talks, Shuiming starts rubbing her eyebrows. It's his act of trying to get rid of headaches that come from distress, not to mention the reason why headaches have hit me so hard.

"I don't know... I'm sorry, but I've got a lot more to ask. Can I ask you a few questions first?

"Yes."

First of all, Trinity was there.

"Yes, he heard that a great army of demons was assembling and Lord Swimey was there, and he rushed from imperial territory in a hurry"

"Hmm? It's strange that you know where I am... well fine. I also heard about Trinity stabbing Rajas in the stomach. Is it true about that, after all?

"It seems a little different in my view, but I would be foolish to think that was generally the trigger."

Shuiming looks up to heaven, "Ahhh," as if he had been seen faint. And I'll put my mind back behind me, and I'll make Fermenia my last question with my tired face on.

"Did Rajas give you my name?

"Were you named?... No, only with a man in black"

"Right..."

It seems Trinity and the others have not found out that they are magicians. After finishing his question to Fermenia, Shuiming sighed somewhat heavily, then called the clerk to ask for another glass of grape water. Eventually I drank all the grape water that had been carried away and groaned with regret.

"... I didn't know you missed it."

"Is that something you're going to regret?

"Isn't that right? You couldn't put Keri on yourself, could you?

When Shuiming says so, Fermenia releases even stronger the twitching emotions she was letting seep through.

"If they say that by creating all that misery by ourselves, we have no standing. And it was Lord Swimey who unleashed the magic of thunder on that demon general Rajas, wasn't it?

And when Mizumino nods, Fermenia tries to remember that time and speaks out.

"The Demon Gentlemen had been wearing off with thunder that overflowed from their bodies before they encountered us, and there was pain and suffering in the midst of battle. And after receiving most of Lord Brave, his body exceeded the limits of being able to withstand lightning and disappeared without a trace with the roar. After all, the Demon Gentlemen were dead, even without Lord Brave?

"Well I guess so... I don't know I couldn't defeat you with that power..."

"... I'm not sure. I didn't know you would destroy nearly 10,000 demon armies and even defeat such powerful demons."

So Shuiming looks like he's been taken aback. There was something in Fermenian's words that I couldn't miss hearing right now.

"... 10,000?

"Yes, to deduce from the range of battles, traces and other circumstances, it was probably about that number"

…………

"Lord Swimey?

"Ugh, yeah well... sort of..."

I exchange coughs, etc., and try to fix the appearance, but I have an unpleasant sweat on my back.

Shuiming was in a hurry for what he had done inside. To have stood up to that army more than to have defeated 10,000. I was wondering if I had done so much recklessness. No, I wouldn't have turned back because I knew, but still, when I heard that again, I was reminded that I was doing a hell of a thing.

When I realize it, Fermenia is making me wonder. Seeing it, Shuiming regains her mind and puts in an apology for letting her wipe her ass.

"... well, I guess I bothered you anyway, and I'm sorry"

When I say that, Fermenia looks a bit harsh.

"No, I can't ask Lord Swimey to apologize... and there's something wrong with that."

"Things?"

"Yes, it is also the responsibility of the nobility of our country that the Demons attacked the merchants."

"... let's hear it"

"- Hmm. I see that Hadrias made me look good..."

"My deepest apologies to the nobles of our country for imitating the harm done to Lord Swimei, a guest of the other world"

Shuiming sounded her nose blatantly uncomfortable when she heard all of the plots that were being made behind Shuiming and Trinity's journey. Fermenia bowed her head deeply to him, staring into the void at the contours of Hadrias, which she had yet to see.

But besides, Shuiming shook his head beside him in a hurry,

"Oh, no, it's not your fault, so put your face up."

"But"

"Even I have a falling out. Well, I did something unfortunate to the unrelated merchants..."

Before saying that, Shuiming was deprived of his word by the gushing, do-no-se.

Naturally, this means that you will be responsible for the destruction of the merchant army after being attacked by the demonic army. Considering that, I am sorry for those involved.

"No, it's not Lord Swimey's fault. Sometimes the Demons acted quickly, because if the Duke of Hadrias hadn't even taken such measures, neither the merchants nor Lord Swimey would have been attacked."

"But if we don't, it will also mean that Trinity and the others were in danger this time. If you pursue your responsibilities, you can't say anything."

So Shuiming leaned down to her sigh for a little while, then raised her face, much more determined.

"But did you get that Hadrias? I guess he's got to do something someday."

"Duh, what the hell are we gonna do about it!?

"Manisa. Well, it's reasonable to put it on even before you drop it and make it impossible for you to move freely, right?

"Does that mean retaliation?

"Well, don't get hungry. There are people besides me who want to do that, and more than that. Most importantly, it would be dangerous. He treats people summoned from different worlds like that without even checking with the king. I'm sure I'm not the only one who can do that."

"Are you telling me Lord Mizuki could be targeted, too?

"And Trinity."

To Shuiming's assertion, Fermenia turns a blind eye to surprise, but opinions.

"Lord Reggie is a summoning brave man. It's hard to believe Sir Hadrias would ever do that to him."

"No, I'll do it. From what I've heard, he's a very cunning guy. You're framing me. What a quick find out. Buy the wrath of the affectionate Trinity - right. You may be over-conscious, but he'd be mad at you. That's what he's doing after he figured it out. I don't know what his ultimate purpose is, but I'll do whatever it takes to achieve it."

"To defend the kingdom, do you think you'll use it even to Lord Brave?

"It's not unthinkable. You don't have to frame me if you're just gonna let Trinity get away with this. I think you should try to figure something out."

Hearing Shuiming's concerns, Fermenia frowned again, seemingly complicated, after a whiff for a while.

It would not be a mistake to be wary of a nobleman named Hadrias. But I'm not sure what I thought about this one and did such a roundabout. If Hadrias is in a position to support Trinity II because of the Demon King crusade, it won't benefit him or her by pissing him off.

Shui Ming is a little late for thought.

Eventually, when it was time to leave the store,

"- That's right. When are you gonna learn magic?

When Shuiming told Fermenia that, she embarked on an unwanted word.

"Are you going to tell me!?

"If you're gonna cooperate with me, you're gonna have to cross a shitty bridge, too. Sometimes it's the price of getting help. If you're willing to do that, I'll take it easy on you."

"Well, then, be sure!

Fermenia snorted and nodded again and again without one or two.

She is also a magician. I wouldn't be talking about the unknown, especially the mysteries, of interest, etc.

"Okay. By the way, I don't know what to do instead, but I need a favor."

Regarding the request that Shuiming tried to present, Fermenia also seemed to have guessed,

"Do you mean to teach Lord Swimey this magic?

"There's that too. And I want you to teach me magic."

"Are you with me, sir?

"I'm going to introduce that. I'll go home first, so follow me."

With that said, Shuiming urged Fermenia to take a seat.
