62 Episode 62: The Sky King and His Inherited Name

"Here is the Throne of the Sky King"

After that, the Kingsguard, who completely defeated us, accepted to lead us under the Sky King instead of fixing his gear, starting with wings.

"But it's you. I must say Lord Rex's arm as a technician is brilliant. Even in the castle, you can fly freely with your feathers!

Fly slowly down the aisle, which can never be said to be wide while the Kingsguard speaks pleasantly.

"Ha ha ha... you made the mistake of challenging someone who could provide this kind of technology at all costs..."

For some reason the laughter was raging, and I also felt kind of like self-inflicted abandonment.

"By the way, why is this castle so lame? Or, this isn't a castle, it's a fort in the first place..."

It's still going to take me a while to get to where the king is, so I asked him some questions about the discomfort I felt when I saw this castle.

"We don't know much about that either. His Majesty the First King of the Sky has ordained this a castle."

Hmm, is that why you chose this place as your home base?

"But why are you so worn out?

Since I started chatting, Liliera also raises questions about this castle.

"It's..."

For a moment the Kingsguard sends his gaze to Mr. Carm, but he sighed and answered the question because Mr. Carm did not respond at all.

"The rocks and minerals on this empty island have a special composition, and we have a little problem processing them."

Oh, you mean gravium.

"I used to have the means to do something about them, but now I've lost that technology too. So they're staying here with this kind of first aid."

Indeed, if a material containing gravium that rises even with a slight amount of magic were used as building material for a building, only that part would rise.

Even if the first one was fixed with a type of adhesive that was connected, if the area kept moving to rise again and again, any of it would break and fly into the sky.

I'm sure there have been such instances in the past, so I guess I just gave up restoring the fort.

"You kept using this place as your home base, even in that state."

Yes, Mr. Liliera is right, I guess there was still a reason I had to use this place as my home base.

Is it a matter of location, or did you need something from this fort?

The question is getting more and more instead of solving it.

... but well, I wonder if that's exciting because it sounds like an adventurer's journey at it.

Disappeared sky continents and mysterious species, and semi-destructed fortifications.

It's like the stage of a story.

This is a mysterious on-parade that recalls the adventures of the Undersea Labyrinth, one of the most popular episodes of the story of the Great Swordsman Rygaard!

◆

"This is the throne of His Majesty the King of the Sky."

"This is it?

To call it the door between the thrones, it's a normal door.

And the Kingsguard knocks on the door.

"Your Majesty, it's Baldy"

Oh, the Kingsguard is named Baldy.

"... in"

"Excuse me, sir."

When I hear a response from inside, the Kingsguard, no, Mr. Baldy, goes in first.

"Please come in"

Mr. Carm prompted us, so as he followed through, Mr. Carm followed us from behind and shut the door.

"This is..."

The first thing I saw in my eyes when I entered the room was a bunch of armor placed narrowly between the walls.

It was as if they were knights escorting the Lord, intimidating the man who entered the room.

"I mean, this..."

"That was late. Did you capture illegal immigrants?

A voice heard from the front raises my consciousness, which had been taken from me by the armor.

A large desk was placed in the back of the room, with one man sitting behind it.

That's the sky...... king?

That was just the king.

He was a king looking man with a crown on his head and a red cape from his shoulder.

However, the appearance was too disproportionate for this room.

Anyway, this room is just a work room, no matter what you think.

The big desk seemed like a pretty good thing, but that was only on the level that the head of the fort was supposed to sit on, and it didn't look very much like a throne or desk for a king to sit on.

"Your Majesty, we've brought guests who need you from afar."

That's right, Mr. Baldy will introduce us.

"This is Lord Liliera, accompanied by Lord Rex, the magic item engineer of the journey."

"Guests? Magic Item Technicians? What are you talking about? The rest of your orders are to arrest illegal immigrants, right? Why did you bring these suspicious people here? The rest of you didn't give those orders, did you?

Well, I don't know if that's what you're gonna want to say.

"Well, that's... this Lord Rex is a very skilled technician, and it's up to us to consider him a very beneficial person for our country."

"Tell me what's wrong with that! I ordered you to capture the rest! Get them now!

But against the order of the Sky King, Mr. Carm and the others do not try to move at all.

"What's wrong!? Why don't you listen to the rest of the orders?"

The King of the Sky rages at Mr. Carm for not obeying orders.

"As a matter of fact, these people were incredibly strong, and even though our Knights hit them in total, they didn't have any hands or feet."

"So do our Kingsguard Knights..."

I bow my head to the Sky King saying I'm sorry for Mr. Carm and Mr. Baldy.

"You can't win!?"

He looks at me with a face like the Sky King is incredible.

"Here we go, Your Majesty. I'm a traveling adventurer and my name is Rex."

Let's just say hello with a smile.

You told me that Mr. Carm and the others couldn't win in bundles, so I wouldn't be doing any weird imitations.

And I thought, Sky King's reaction was the exact opposite of my expectations.

"Shut up, Shiro! It's disrespectful to talk to every civilian!

Well, that pissed me off.

Looks like this was more noble than I can talk to you about.

The aristocracy is divided into aristocrats who push their own conveniences only to know what they know about the commoners anyway.

Most nobles don't care about civilians, but the former have a conversation if it's in their own interest.

But the latter doesn't matter about profits or situations, and I don't listen to people who are in a lower position than I am anyway.

Those who are in a better position than themselves believe in completing it once they are commanded.

Therefore, if you do not carry out the order, you will have a seizure like a child.

That's the way it is now.

"Who do you think is left! The rest will be descended from the great Seraphium royal family, who have ruled the Sky Continent since the days of the Devil's War!!"

Here it is.

If I don't get what I want, I'll bring up the name of the house anyway.

I'm really sick of patterns......

"Seraphium royal?

I overheard the name. [M]

"That's right! He was once the great and only ruler of the Sky Continent, the Seraphium Royal!

"What's that?

No, really. What is that?

"Hey, what!?"

Heard of the royal family and thought I would fall down, the Sky King is bewildered by unexpected reactions.

'Cause I've never heard the name Seraphium Royal before in my life.

That is the royal family of names I have never heard of in my previous life or in previous generations.

"Heh, heh. Let me tell you something ignorant. The Seraphium Royal Family is the name of the great royal family that once united the sky continent, the giant empty island that existed in this sky!

"No, that's a lie."

Without a moment of hair, I denied the words of the Sky King.

"Hey, what?!?"

The Sky King said earlier that he is a royal family that has been around since the time of the Demon War, but such a royal family does not exist on the Sky Continent in the first place.

At least in the days when I was fighting demons.

"Only five royal families of the Sky Continent: Sky Ark, Lysandra, Ausilfest, Strumbal and Crawdam. There was no such thing as a Seraphium family in the time when the battle against the demons was taking place."

"What are you talking about?"

The Sky King tries to deny it, but it doesn't.

"No, it's not a nasty story or anything. At the time, the sky continent was dominated by five countries and there was no room for other countries to enter. Because the kings of the sky continent were called 5-star kings because they controlled the sky continent by five royalties. If the sixth king were there, they would be 6-star kings, wouldn't they?

"Oh, my God, I've never heard that before."

"Um, because my late father also said that the literature before the Sky Continent perished was scattered and long ago."

He even circles his eyes with surprise to the Sky Men, Mr. Carm.

I hope you didn't know what caused the collapse of the sky continent. Apparently, Mr. Carm and the others have lost track of the past for more than a certain amount of time.

"If you go to a library in an earthly country and look at ancient documents related to the sky continent, it will be obvious."

Even then, there were quite a few books about 5-star kings.

Those books will still be in some country's library.

Mostly it's just gossip.

"Who the hell are you..."

The Sky King stares at me with a bitter face.

"I'm just an adventurer. So, who the hell are you?

Definitely. This man is the king of phonies.

But how the hell long has this man and his ancestors been cheating on the sky people?

Is that also connected to the mystery that the sky continent disappeared into?

"Ugh... ku"

And, at that time, the voice of the king who was groaning changes.

"K, KUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKUKU!!"

"Heh, sire!?"

Mr. Carm and the others suddenly turn to look like leopard kings in the sky.

"Well, for better, well. That's what I knew about the old royal family. But you seem to have spoken a little too much. Find out I can't even lock you up in a jail room while I take you home alive!

I guess this is classic mouth sealing time.

"O my faithful knights, obey the life of the Lord!

When the heavenly king raised his voice, the eyes of the armor that had been decorated indoors glowed, and for a moment his body trembled, moving simultaneously.

"Ko, what the hell is this!?"

I'm upset by the armor that Mr. Carm and the others suddenly set in motion.

Apparently he didn't teach his men anything.

"You're a mailgolem for VIP protection. Usually you put it in a castle or fort stronghold disguised as a piece of art, and when the inside of the facility is in battle, the golems start it up as a defensive force and fight the intruders."

"Well, you know it well. That's just a magic item technician."

Let's see how the Sky King came here to start and impress me.

"Yes, and that's also why the Historic Sky King chose this half-broken fort for his castle. To be the trump card when you're in trouble."

The Sky King grins with a nigga.

"I know the Golem is a force of war, but why stick to this fort? If the Golem is important, you can't just take it and build a castle somewhere else."

Mr. Liliera speaks surprisingly of the golem, but doubts.

"I couldn't do that... probably because that golem was deployed as a defense for this base. Maybe the golems are restricted so that they can only operate on this base in some way. So the ancestors of the Sky King who knew about it decided to use this fort as their home."

And I rightly pointed to the king of the sky, the chair on which he sat, the chair on which the magic swept.

"And that chair you're sitting in is the magic item to give orders to the Golems, or the throne that rules the base."

Sky King slaps his hand at my reasoning.

"Good for you. That's all I understood. But if you can fight what you know, it doesn't make sense! These golems are the most powerful soldiers on the Sky Continent!

The Sky King laughs with pleasure.

"These golems have no better chance of winning than you. We'll kill you here and make sure no extra information flows outside."

I guess the extra thing is that there's no such thing as a Seraphium family.

I mean, I guess that's a bad thing when you find out about it.

"Golems, kill them!

The Golems move according to the orders of the Sky King.

Make a giddy noise and pull out a sword that would be a magic item.

"Heh, Your Majesty, the Golem is approaching us too?

Mr. Carm asks the Sky King for help with the fact that the Golems, who thought they would attack us alone, are approaching us.

"Well, I've heard stories you guys shouldn't have heard either. Just as well, die with them."

"" Oh, no!? "

Mr. Carm and Mr. Baldy raise a sad cry.

Well, if you abandon them lightly to someone you've sworn allegiance to before, you're going to want to say as much as a cry.

"Come on, do it!

The golems wave their swords at us.

"Huh!"

Mr. Liliera puts up a spear, but I control it with my hands.

"Leave it to me."

That said, when I turned my hand to the golems without panic, I let go of the magic quietly.

"Burst Wave!!"

Magic shockwaves are emitted fan-shaped from the flat of his hand, intercepting the golems that have been attacking him.

Heavy metal armored golems are easily blown away by my emitted shock waves.

And the fact that he was blown right behind him also meant that he naturally blew towards the Sky King who was behind him.

"Grrr!?"

Desks were destroyed by the blown golems, and the Sky King crashed into a rolling golem as it was, falling off the throne, further underneath another golem that flew.

"Gheh...... gakli"

Yeah, it's karma.

It's the end of the line for people who have attacked us by ignoring the discussion.

"Well, you're not going to be dealing with a golem that's not even keeping you busy,"

Besides, these golems were clearly old-fashioned.

Probably the same fort the knights feathers and weapons were deployed with mold drop gear.

"Then, stupid...... golem, is it!? I was feared as the main weapon of the sky continent...... weapon, is it!?"

"Ah, the Golem was afraid because of the inexhaustible number of fights in quantity and the tireless battles of inorganic things day and night, and a small number of Golems have the strength to deal with them without problems."

"Oh no...!?"

Now it's time for the Sky King to lose his word and be quiet.

Sky King's defeat was overconfident in the Golem.

Furthermore, because the sky continent had a small number of people, the Golem, which was originally for labor, was also used as a force of war, and it was distorted and passed on, which led to the mistaken possession of an inexhaustible army of golems.

Especially since only some great people knew that fact as a state secret.

How do you know that? That's because I created the basic form of the golem for use on the sky continent at the time.

"Shall I tell you what I know? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
