336 I hear you're having a conversation with Theon.

One day abruptly at the border, the amount of material flowing into Klinge increased dramatically.

Rumors begin to spread about where the hell we are gathering all that material from, and how many of the materials that no one knows yet will surely gather, even if the Earl of Klinge has made a pact with the devil.

Lords and nobles with largely such rumours circulating, without trust from the inhabitants, many of whom are doing something dark behind them, but with regard to Count Knugi, for some reason everyone who heard the rumors had a strange story because they sympathized with a demon whose name they did not know and teared at its condition.

"How did that happen?

Lianya, who finds such a statement in a report that is regularly raised to her, raises questions with abomination, tongue-in-cheek, etc.

Apparently, the public had taken the view that Lianya, who boiled her business for not gathering materials, threatened the devil and plundered the materials, but, of course, Lianya doesn't know the devil.

Lianya's opinion that there's no way there's a demon that spits out material, threatened by human flair in the first place, was sunk by Keith's word, because he's, well, the Count.

I want to make my voice aloud that I don't blame myself for anything, but then if you ask me if I don't remember such rumors, I deserve it because it's reality to whistle and other things while looking in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

"Well, that's how much I admire you, isn't it?

Sion, who saw a report written down like that in Lianya's office, is forgiving Lianya, who is getting grumpy with a bitter laugh.

After all, Zion was Zion no matter how far he went.

It was Lianya who had such an emotion that she would expect some change in attitude after things like that night, but it was said that she was in training with the dragons, that she was visiting the office as she is now, and that she saw no change in that attitude at all.

Lianya thought this would be a good thing.

If this makes Sion's attitude like, for example, looking out the window for a day when the sun is shining, trying to sigh once in a while, or even sticking with Lianya, I don't know how to treat Sion as Lianya.

"If everyone hates Lenya, they won't even make it a rumor. That's a favorable rumor there."

"That's a favor..."

Making the devil cry, is a favorable thing to think about, but Lotus Ya decided to meditate on the rumors, thinking that it seemed more spiritual and emotional to take it as Sion said here.

"That's right, Theon, about that ship."

"Hmm?"

"It's like a battleship, so naturally there's a captain, right?

It was Lianya who was somewhat anxious to see if the word captain would make sense in this world where, due to the enormous presence of Katru beneath the sea, not much progress had been made with regard to the ship, but the meaning of the word seemed to have been conveyed to Zion softly, and Zion let him snort.

"The Admiral is Lenya."

"It's me... well, three ships, but the fleet?

"The ship was operated by minimal personnel, basically remotely from."

"I guess it's because they interrupt and take control of the accompanying ship, that"

I am worried about Lianya, but I will leave it to you because if Frau had adopted the method, he would be quite handy about security as well.

By and large, Lianya herself is a swordsman and does not entirely leave the realm of amateurs when it comes to such techniques, etc.

If such a person uttered strange opinions and doubts in the place where the experts were gathered, he thought it would just get in the way of the work.

That means the captain is alone.

"Right. You've already made your selection. Lenya knows who she is."

In the words of Zion, Lianya explores her memories since she came to this world.

What I know naturally means someone who also knows Scion, who is acting together, but when they say someone like that in the image of the word Captain of a Battleship, there is no immediate verse that comes to mind.

Basically it was hard to think of choosing a battleship captain like a chunk of metal from among the elves who loved the woods and either didn't really like metal, and I didn't think I would choose among the Beasts because of the implications of a position that required a lot of knowledge and judgment.

In addition to being half-destructed, it is difficult to imagine that we would elect from the Dragon Nation, where what was in that position has almost died out, and from the Demon Nation, even though we are going to fight the Demon King.

Then the erasure method enriches the line of electing from the people, but then when it comes to who the people are, Lianya had no idea.

"Who? I guess I'll be limited when I know it, too."

"It's Viscount Lakes-Goldner."

The name which was given was certainly of Lotus Ya's knowledge.

Only on one point, it was different from what Lianya knew, but it was the name of an old nobleman who was the lord of a territory he had previously visited in the story of seafood entanglement and a teacher of the sword of Zion.

"Weren't you the baron before?

Lianya, who was in memory, will check with the information she heard from Shion.

It was also possible to say it was a mistake of memory, but Shion briefly told Lianya the cause.

He said he was born.

Originally, Baron Goldner's territory, which was particularly unproductive, was able to fish at sea thanks to the intervention of Lotus Yama, from which seafood to be water-fried was widely distributed inside the Principality of Triden as a territorial specialty.

The feat may have originally belonged to Lotus Ya, but in addition to the fact that the person of the day, Lotus Ya, showed no interest in stories of that kind, he was credited with the feat of Baron Goldner's own dedication to the development of the territory and was elevated from Baron to Viscount.

"Isn't there a need to recall the nobles who withdrew from the center?

"I heard he wanted to ride."

"You're a healthy grandfather... where are you now?

"Of course you're supposed to be staying in Klinge, right? Until we have the most formal announcement, don't tell Lenya about this... ah..."

I was Scion explaining things well along the way, but on the way I stuck my mouth with my own two hands, looking at Lianya for a moment.

Seeing from Zion's reaction that apparently it was information of the kind that he had to lay low until the occasion of the official announcement, Lianya said in a sober tone urging Zion, who began to hold his mouth and turn his face bright red, to take his hands off his mouth.

"I'll leave what I didn't ask"

"Yeah, I wonder if that would help"

I don't understand the captain's intention to keep his personnel secret until the end of the day, but Lianya thinks that perhaps the Grand Duke or around the Emperor used that method to surprise himself.

I don't know how much that means, but if you think maybe it's a way to ease the tension before you go out, it's not even the kind of information you're forced to reveal.

"I'd be quite surprised when we make the official announcement, so why don't we meet up or something beforehand?

"That's... the Viscount walks around every day of the week and hardly seems to get in touch"

Even when we met in the Viscount's territory before, Lianya remembered, as she had said to the Viscount that she wanted him to be more dear to him.

At that time, I meant to show myself to the Viscount, who had repeatedly crusaded the demons around him without merit, but this time for another reason than that, the Viscount seemed to have shrugged off a little.

It may not be impossible, Lianya thinks about Klinge.

The Viscount's territory is situated at the end of the Duchy of Triden, and, if you will, the person named Viscount Goldner is the so-called lord of the country territory.

And the person I had previously met, Viscount Goldner, was like a little bit past from Lianya's eyes.

What the hell happens if such a person comes to a city like Klinge, which has plenty of facilities for entertainment, gastronomy, or whatever you want to enjoy anyway?

The imagination was easy to follow, and Lianya sighs softly, thinking of the ministerial group chasing around the Viscount, who would surely be playing around day and night.

"Tell Keith to be careful. Someone who would make him Viscount of the Principality of Triden and probably be the main captain of the Demon King's Crusade. It can be morale to imitate being caught in a pleasure zone."

Unsurprisingly, it was Lianya who thought that soldiers might like to take it, but she decides not to talk about it, and Lianya only gives instructions so that she pays attention to the Viscount's trends.

If the kind of information that Lotus Ya poorly showed a certain understanding of the Viscount's behavior, even if it were to spill out, there might be no stopping the Viscount's behavior, or there would be a tremendous amount of hard work on the part of Viscount Goldner's ministerial corps that would be chasing it.

"Copy that. I think it's kind of irrelevant to the fight."

"Fighting seems to be largely over at the prep stage."

Shion leaks a tickle of laughter at Lianya, who answered and showed it even though she felt something was different.

"Renya doesn't seem to have changed, most importantly"

"What do you mean?

A few moments ago, Lianya, feeling somewhat like she was feeling or thinking about something similar, asked and listened to Zion's words.

Theon opens his mouth to see what an answer he can give when asked and after taking a moment to think slowly, he finally finds a satisfactory answer for himself.

"Even after all that happened, Lenya said she was Lenya."

Theon said that in a strangely reassuring tone.

Lotus Ya, remembering an event that fell under the word, unexpectedly felt her cheeks get hot and rushed off Sion's gaze, understanding what Sion had also spoken for himself, leaning down with a blush.

Again, they both had some change of heart, even if they were pretending to be flat.

"And for now, I can't move on to the fact that the ship won't fix it."

"That's right. Yeah, that's right. Must be. I'm sure he is."

Compared to Lian Ya, who is regaining some tranquillity, Shion's suspicions were beginning to seep into his actions as they were.

His eyes swim out, his complexion never returns from red, and he starts sweating enough to tell that even though the room temperature isn't so hot, and he rushes to open his chest and try to send the wind, realizing again that it is in front of Lianya's eyes, screaming and holding his open chest tight with his arms to hide it.

Seems somewhat awkward, and then Lotus Yaya and Scion laugh at each other unexpectedly as the uncomfortable air flows.

Outside the door of that room, resentment swirled about the soldiers watching what was going on in the room to raise the report to Lianya, the Count explode.
