240 They borrowed it.

I don't know if Lorna's irresponsible attitude was infected, but Sion's persuasion of Klinge's soldiers ended as easily as Lianya clapped out.

It's not like Theon went into the means of physical persuasion.

Though the soldiers, beginning with Keith, were greatly surprised by Zion's words and caused some confusion, as a large group, they did not cause much confusion, and each accepted information about Emil's identity.

"To be honest, I don't have anything to think about, but if the Count is supposed to be good, there's no denying it to us, his men."

Keith said so with a bitter smile when he was later secretly summoned to Lianya's private room to explain the situation.

In response, Lianya blurted that her trust in herself might be a little too high, but Keith hastily adds words as to whether such thoughts were on her face.

"Beginning with me, the Klinge soldiers were much smaller and had experience taking care of Emil. In fact, even if we subtract the information that we were demons, the truth is that the benefits are still greater."

Are the soldiers placed in Klinge, the subordinate of Lianya, from the fact that Lianya herself is a young and historic nobleman, the soldiers themselves were also inexperienced and many young people.

Therefore, there is also the point that they themselves never fought the Demons, and that their negative feelings towards the Demons were not so cumulative.

In addition, there was the fact that Emil used to formulate medicines with his exceptional arm against injured people, sick people, etc. who were bound to occur during training, etc., and often helped with these.

In other words, the impression on Emil for the soldiers is that of a well-armed doctor or pharmacist, and it doesn't seem to be very perfect to be told that he was now a demon.

"I think the story would have been a little different with the Demon King's army that came the other day if we had fought, because we were thorough with ranged attacks from the turret, and only Lady Frau fought directly"

"So you're not realistic, to something called the Demon Clan"

I think Lianya and others are in very bad shape from the point of view of the crisis.

However, if you weigh the threat of the demon tribe that you haven't experienced properly from the soldiers, and the treatment of Emil that you are experiencing directly and properly, it just seems that the weighing leans toward the benefits of treatment.

When this is the person you're talking to becomes a brave man, the fur color changes slightly.

It was Grune who swallowed the status quo very lightly.

Grune didn't have to be persuaded by Zion to recognize the reality that Emil was a Demon and didn't object to it.

"I didn't have to tell Mr. Zion, I knew it."

To the strange Lianya, Grune said so as if it were nothing.

It was Lianya who wondered whether it was also like a skill in identifying the demonic tribe to the brave, but the seeds Grune made are simpler.

"We questioned the croir."

"... oh, I see"

"This is still a Cloire bloodline for once, so if she's hiding something, I can tell quite somehow."

Conversely, again, I don't suppose that's why Lianya.

I don't care what you think. With Croix and Grune, the skill proficiency rate of such belly searching skills will boost Grune's armament.

At this point, Cloire, who guessed Grune would tell Lotus Ya that he had obtained information from Cloire, had been lurking in the city of Klinge after telling Flau many times not to look for him.

Seemed to escape thinking that he would blame Grune for telling him to keep his mouth shut, no matter how brave he was, so he asked Grune to tell him about the search for the croir and to come back because he wasn't angry.

It was Kurtz and, surprisingly, Leppard who were followed by good discernment.

Kurtz's understanding was that he was not interested in Emil's identity if Lotus Ya was good, and Leppard, like Keith and the others, had taken care of Emil's special medicine many times, and since your favor outweighs his negative image of the Demon Nation, he seemed to have broken it off that he didn't need to make a scene once and for all unless it was bad.

It was Alberto who insisted that it should be left alone, along with the most common reaction imagined by Lianya rather than the most poorly distinguished.

This reaction was incomprehensible to Lianya either.

Although the forces of the people, elves and beasts have recently suffered demonic damage, the scale of the damage remains relatively insignificant.

In contrast, the damage caused by the Dragon Demons was almost devastating, albeit devastating.

Alberto was also supposed to be fighting the Demons many times, and as a matter of reality, the Demons are killing his people and giving them an experience of getting boiled water.

Even though it has nothing to do with it directly, Emil was heard to be a demon, and he couldn't possibly swallow everything to say yes.

"What the hell is the Count thinking? The Demon Nation makes itself hostile to all who live on this continent and is the servant of the Demon King. Not only has that been on hand until now, but it's not sane shabbat, such as going looking for a missing demon tribe!

"Oh, well, I don't even know what it's like."

"The Count would have seen it too! How much outrage they've worked in our country!

It is Alberto, who tides his face and speaks with a high voice.

Lotus Yan and Alberto's claim was unclear.

But at the same time, it's a story I don't understand.

It was indeed the demonic army that attacked the Dragon Nation's continent.

It is only natural to be hated by the Dragons because their armies worked injustice that covered their eyes in the cities and lands of the Dragons.

But there was no Emil in his army, nor did Emil destroy the Dragon soldiers.

Together, think about it, and hate even Emil feels like Lianya is out of control.

Most importantly, the victim consciousness is only understood by the victim, and it is not for the outsider to persuade himself to bring up such a cave, because he also thinks that Lianya would never say anything about it.

"I'm not saying we can't split up. That's fine if you don't mind. I don't have the right to impose your actions, words and actions on me, and I don't have the right to restrict my actions on you guys."

"Are you really going to find that demon tribe... I don't know any other brave men... but at least I want you to think I can't help you"

Alberto clearly said so.

I just don't want to pull a single step where I was told to, so that I can lift my resolve to my expression, and halfway look at Lianya.

"I didn't expect it from the beginning, and not a single brave man is willing to take you in the first place."

Lianya's response to such Alberto was terribly pale and light.

Alberto didn't seem to anticipate this response at all, and the rugged look turns to surprise.

"On the lap of the demon king, you say you will go to the land of the demons, but you say you will not take the brave ones"

It's out of the way, and I swallow the word in a dangerous place, and I wonder what Lianya answered.

This time it was not a matter of making war with the Demon King, but a very simple operation of just exploring the country to the Demon Nation and discovering Emil, and just coming back.

Though we have to go through a huge junction that seems to be covering the country with demons along the way, it doesn't even seem like a scene where we need so much power if we're to do something with a sword or a high-powered sorcery.

If he could, Lotus Yay wanted to go exploring Emil on his own, but Lorna, who can detect Emil's whereabouts, has always become the person he wants to take from the point of view of expediting his actions, and from there he would certainly listen to Lotus Yay's instructions rather than the braves who, when they develop and think about it, don't know if they will or won't listen to Lotus Yay's instructions, and it's definitely better to take Shions, who are losing their colour with the braves, both militarily.

"You are ready to fight the Demon King. You can't just let him hang out with my selfishness?

Speaking of which Lianya managed to come up with the answer that would be the easiest, Alberto gets stuck in words all the time about whether she did think she was right.

"If you're going to suffer more from staying in Klinge than you know Emil is a demon, can you go back to your country? I'll allow you to use the portal, and I promise I'll get back to you if you need anything."

"Let me think..."

Without pronouncing any further words, Alberto turned his back on Lotus Ya and left when he gave thanks to Lotus Ya.

Lotus Yashi thought it would be easier to think lighter while dropping off her back.

With Alberto pulling even as he embraced his dissatisfaction, Zion's work of persuasion in Klinge saw a single end, and Zion flew straight under the Grand Duke using the transfer gate.

I decided to accompany Lianya on this as well.

I wasn't worried about the outbreak of parent-child fighting that Rhona was talking about, but it was still a problem in Lianya's territory, because I couldn't do anything to make Zion go alone.

When they arrived in the capital, they asked to see the Grand Duke. For some reason, they were surrounded by soldiers and taken to the hall of sight.

"Count Knugi! Your lord is sane!?

In the hall of the sight of the Grand Duke sitting on the throne, waiting for Lianya and Zion, who entered, was a curse from the numerous nobles who refrained from beside the Grand Duke.

Besides, the only target is Lianya.

Zion is the daughter of the Grand Duke, but has renounced the Grand Duke's inheritance rights, and now in his capacity as the depositary of Lianya, so the pursuit and cursing of the nobles was directed at Lianya, the person responsible.

"There's so much to joke about. He said he had fallen to talk and was consorting with the Demons!?

"Count Kunugi, isn't your lord going to harm the nation by inflicting harm on the Devil Nation?

"Grand Duke. You should take your territory and authority from Count Knugi, who was hiding it from His Majesty and tearing up the Demon Clan! If I had given him authority as an aristocrat as it is, I would not have figured out what harm it would do to the Principality of Triden!

"Don't fall down and beg forgiveness, you young builder!

Lotus Yakiya, known as the Young Maker, was desperate to erupt.

The aristocrat I called is quite an elderly, lean, dead tree-like stature aristocrat.

I can't tell you how old I am when I said I was in my 60s and 70s when I was your age.

The appearance of the opposing Lianya is certainly a suitable appearance to be called young making, but the contents are those who lived for nearly a century.

The memories are erased, and even if I can't remember the time I've been through, there's no way I can respond anywhere how much people around the age of 60 or 70 yelled at me.

"Count Knugi, keep quiet from earlier, but if you have anything to say, say it"

The Grand Duke, who had left it up to the nobles to say whatever they wanted for a while, generally spoke to Lianya about complaining as well.

I can't feel the atmosphere to blame for that word.

"However, I would like to ask His Majesty the Grand Duke"

"Good, I forgive the question"

Your Majesty! and a voice sounded to stop it, but the Grand Duke ignored it and turned his eyes to Lianyi, expecting it as if he were waiting for something funny.

I'm not going to keep that funny, but even though I think Lianya mouths the questions she's prepared.

"I don't care if it's in this capital, in the far Kuklika, or in my Klinge, there are sinners in every city, right?

"... you're connected"

I don't know the intent of Lianya's question, and the hall squeaks.

Neither Shion, who stands behind Lianya, knew why Lianya asked such a thing, and although the Grand Duke who was asked also tried to answer, he had a look on his face just wondering what was wrong with it.

"Those... the sinners are mostly... people, aren't they?

The air flows into the hall about what's wrong with it.

Lotus Mita used the transfer gate to come and go from continent to continent.

But the common residents don't use the transfer gates, and that's not how imitations can be done when they go out of their way to other continents to commit crimes there.

In other words, it is almost normal for a sinner caught committing a crime to be the largest race in control of that continent, and it is highly unlikely that there will be non-human sinners on the human continent.

"Count Knugi, what the hell are you..."

"Ah."

It was Zion who raised his voice low.

With his eyes slightly open, Zion glanced at Lotus Ya, who stood before him as if he understood something, then glanced at the Grand Duke on the throne and saw that Grand Duke showed a slight nodding trick before smiling viciously on his lips.

The nobles began to bother with what the hell was going to be done to the look of leopard-changing Scion.

With such an unbeatable voice, Lianya says.

"If my friend Emil-Raja is a demon and therefore an evil that does harm to people, The race of sinners, who are evils that do harm to people. So you can think of evil that harms people, too, right?

"Kee, it's a trick!

"What is the mantra? If you talk about good and evil as a race, I'm not supposed to say anything wrong?

With a glance at the royalty who shouted silently, Lianya turned her gaze to the Grand Duke.

Behind its lotus yama, Scion suddenly expanded his physical enhancement by magic manipulation in full.

The magic blowing up from the whole body of Zion became a physical wind, raging through the hall, and the nobles screamed as they lay down to the momentum, and the Grand Duke lay his hands on protecting his face from the wind blowing, but kept staring at Yada Lotus without being slight from the throne.

"I want you to answer, Grand Duke. Are you sure with that understanding?

Neither Lianya nor Zion are armed because they are in sight.

The soldiers guarding the hall are fully armed.

Still, the soldiers were intuitively aware that if they did poorly, they would be able to deal with the two Lianya and Zion to show the worry of total annihilation.

Whether with weapons or not, the soldiers have never seen enough physical strengthening to wind around the surroundings that Zion is currently trying to deploy.

Soldiers understand that the amount of magic that is spinning around their bodies is in the wrong digits.

The magic of that difference in digits remains and is reflected in proportion to the strength of the physical strengthening.

"Count Knugi, that understanding is wrong"

The Grand Duke slowly answered as the nobles watched as the soldiers faded their faces as they perceived that there was no life for everyone present on this occasion in one of their replies.

"It's an error to think of some locations as overall locations. In such an idea, not a single being is allowed to live in this world."

"Then, Your Majesty. My friend..."

"It is also true that the Demons are born and prefer acts that are considered evil. But as the emir, Count Knugi, sees it, it is also considered harmless. The harmless cannot be cut off as evil. Therefore, under the responsibility of his Emil-Raja, Count Knugi, the Principality is not guilty of his residence unless he is guilty."

"And is there a difference?

To Lianya, who pushes in case, the Grand Duke answered instantly with a true face after showing something like a bitter smile only for a moment.

"Terrible. Do you doubt my words?

"I'm sorry, Grand Duke.... Theon, right in front of you."

If Lianya says so while drooling her head, Zion unlocks her physical strengthening state and learns from Lianya to bow her head.

As soon as the wind was blowing in the hall, the soldiers exhale deeply, knowing that they had not had to die on this occasion for the time being.

With his head hanging, Lianya was heartily surprised.

I was thinking that the Grand Duke would somehow circumvent his forceful theory.

But he didn't think that would lead him to admit in public that the Demons themselves were not all evil.

If the Holy King was proud of his original forces, it would be like treating the Principality of Triden heretically and coming to its doom immediately, and the Grand Duke was able to do so on this occasion thanks to the decline of the Holy King and the current situation in which the new religion originated in the Principality of Triden.

"Grand Duke. Now I know my friend Emil is not evil. I'd like to ask you a favor."

Suddenly, Shion, who had refrained behind Lianya's back, began to sue the Grand Duke directly when he raised his face.

It is usually an act that can be stopped as a soldier by the nobility around you.

But the soldiers were loose in spirit because of the sense of urgency they faced with death, and the nobles had no one to move, fearful of the power of the physical strengthening that Zion had shown them.

"A wish. Let me hear it."

"With the disappearance of my friend Emil, Count Knugi intends to carry out that exploration"

That's my personal story, and while I wonder if it's something I should say to the Grand Duke on this occasion, since there's no sign of the Grand Duke stopping Zion's direct complaint, I somehow decide to lose the time to stop Lianya as well and let Zion say it as it is.

"I would like to lend you the Dragon Cavalry for that expedition."

"Forgive me, take it"

No, no, no. Lianya thought that there was no way that would be allowed, and everyone who was there on the spot thought so.

Even so, the words to which the Grand Duke replied immediately betrayed the thoughts of all of them.

"Huh? Am I to be forgiven for that?

"Count... the language..."

Lotus Yaya panics when the Grand Duke tells her to run her gaze around.

"Uh? Uh, while..."

"It's also a hassle - it's okay if it's appropriate"

The atmosphere relaxed at once.

From here on out, if the Grand Duke waves and directs the nobles that there will be nothing to tell them, the soldiers will quickly pass out while rolling, lose their hips, and carry the bodies of the nobles who are blowing bubbles out of the hall of sight.

"Uh, I'll lend you the Dragon Cavalry - Emil, you can use it to explore."

"This discrepancy is tough every time."

I think Lianya wants you to stay in that state at all times because you can do it properly when you are in a public position.

This discrepancy between a decent and an otherwise decent time makes me mentally very tired.

"I'm not used to it. So, finally, I'm hiding the demonic kingdom. I'm hiding the kingdom. I'm wondering what's happening to the demonic kingdom."

"You mean do your research, right?

"I don't have to, can you please?"

It was a broken story that Lianya, who was only one of the nobles, would grant permission to lend dragon cavalry, which could be considered the nation's greatest force for terrible personal action.

At the same time, Lianya wonders if that in itself is like a reward for the collection of information that is being requested.

It's not a bad story.

It is only that the task of raising to the Grand Duke what he saw and heard in the middle of the action of exploring Emil is added as a report.

"I'll take care of it, Grand Duke"

Lianya, who had so decided, told the Grand Duke so in the hall of the sight, which had almost ceased to be popular.
