134 Episode 134: Magic

"I'm going back to Lezard, King Rossais,"

Alexios bowed to me.

Army maintenance costs money.

There is no reason to keep any more troops in Lezad, who has gone after the war of Aldo's execution.

They want to break up soon.

"I see ... Alexius, by the way."

"What?"

"Isn't you going to serve in our country? It's a shame to end an excellent person like you with just a mercenary captain."

Well, Japan is also a small country ...

I am not good at war.

Since I got some experience, I could fight enough if I was a general opponent ...

If our country is to expand its territory, it will have to fight against opponents like General Cryu many times.

There may be times when a two-front operation is forced.

When I say that, I want someone who can replace Bartolo.

Alexios's abilities came to light in this war.

If he can serve me, there is nothing more encouraging.

"... I'm grateful to Lezad for accepting me. I left my hometown, but I'm not ignorant enough to leave the host country."

In other words, wouldn't you take my invitation?

"Sure, if you serve you, you may be able to live a better life now. You are a great king. The kingdom of Rossais, led by you, will develop more and more. That's right in the sense of getting on. ''

Yup?

If so, why not?

Lezard is a merchant country.

No one should blame Alexios for being profitable.

Retaining good mercenaries and generals costs a great deal.

It's not a lesbian that I don't know.

I don't think you have to worry.

"The most important thing to me is my wife, and the second most important is my child. If I become a family, I will have more fences. Sometimes I may have to abandon my family for the country. , The general, the royal, the aristocrat, the responsibility of the person who is responsible ... but I am not prepared for it. I can't do that. Please forgive me. "

Really……

Well, is there any help for that?

"I understand. It was bad to stop. I will not force you. If you have anything, please contact me. I will help you as much as possible. If you change your mind, you can come to our country anytime Absent"

"Thank you for giving me such kindness to me, who made the favor of the goddess happy."

Alexios bowed again and walked away.

...... How do I get him out of the lezard?

"That's why I came back safely. Father-in-law."

After returning to my home country, I first visited the former King Rossais.

My father-in-law met after a long absence ... It looked fine.

"The air and water are clean and quiet here. The hot springs are springing up.

My father-in-law said and laughed.

"I won't die until I see my great-grandson."

"Hah ... please do your best"

I smile with a bitter smile.

Being a great-grandson means that at least Anks and Fiona must be adults.

Another 15 years ...

"The story of my life would be good. Tell me your story. Everything from your mouth about the progress and end of the war."

"I understand"

I nodded greatly.

"The most surprising thing was that the witch Merlin was a person from my hometown."

"Do you belong?"

Father-in-law frowned.

that? Did you not talk?

... Speaking of that, don't feel like you've talked to anyone.

It doesn't hurt to talk separately.

Just because you're not talking doesn't hurt you.

If this were a monotheistic country, they would be killed by saying, “Evil religion! This kind of story is generous.

The easiest way to explain my source of knowledge is to talk about reincarnation.

I had always thought so.

So I thought I was talking somewhere ...

It is Griffon who knows in detail.

The Tetras and Ron know a little bit of the griffon.

I wonder if it was?

Did you talk to Julia ... I didn't talk to your father-in-law, so did you talk to Julia?

"I'm sorry. I'll explain from the beginning."

I'll explain reincarnation one by one.

That was nineteen years ago.

I have a vague memory, but ...

"I'm more shocked to eat a centipede than your previous life. Can you eat it?"

"It tastes bad"

It tasted like nothing to say.

I do not want to eat again.

At that time I was doing something.

"Oh, I'm convinced of your childhood cleverness."

My father-in-law muttered, and then closed his eyes to think a little.

Open your eyes immediately.

"So was Merlin also a reincarnation?"

"No, I think ... it's a transfer.

In fact, making faces was a nostalgic Japanese thing.

The color of the skin is yellowish, different from the white Gauls.

Well, there are Mongoloid races like blue light, so it is possible that they have been reincarnated there.

"That woman doesn't die. Even if I pierce my heart with an arrow or pierce it with a sword, the body regenerates right away ... maybe it's blessing. How do I die?"

"I guess I'll die if I burn it to ashes. I can't be immortal. Probably just a powerful regeneration ability."

Father-in-law considered that.

I don't think I can be immortal.

Invulnerable characters come out even in comics ... but they have some weaknesses.

... but this is real.

Maybe you're really immortal.

"Griffon-sama would know that more than me. Listen over there."

"Yes, he seems to know anything."

First, let's stop talking about Merlin.

"I have more time ... talk about your hometown."

"I understand. Please ask me anything."

After greeting my father-in-law, I first headed to the temple.

The temple I ordered to build.

For the time being, I am set to be the son of the war god Mares.

I had to go to God to report the victory.

Later, he performed a triumphal return in the capital.

The carriage that I ride is a four-headed car, a golden treasure in some places, and is the national treasure of King Rossais.

It is a large and good looking Hakuba that pulls the carriage.

First, guards led by Ron and others walk to the front.

Then I appear in a carriage and Bartolo and Raymond surround both sides.

Behind it is a loot ... a carriage carrying prisoners of war, ivory, and looting, followed by royals and heavy infantry.

When I wave, the people cheer.

Both soldiers and people are proud.

"Her Majesty the King!"

"Her Majesty the King!"

"Her Majesty the King!"

The people sing forever, with the title of "The Majesty."

The kings of the Adernia peninsula do not use His Majesty's title.

After all, there is no great authority as a leader of the royal family.

Neither the tribe nor the people give titles because they do not attach great importance to the existence of the king.

But now I'm definitely called with a title.

"Your Majesty (...) is called"

Bartolo laughs and grins.

I nodded.

Pull out the sword and raise it in the sky.

The sword glowed beautifully in the sunlight.

"" The Majesty the King!

Today, for the first time, I realized that my position as a king was firm.

"It's been a long time. Mr. Griffon"

After the Arc de Triomphe, I visited the contraindicated forest (Romalia Forest) where Griffon lives.

Today is Motomura's members.

Everyone has a jar full of sake in their hands.

Yulia and Tetra were not sake, but babies ... holding Anks and Fiona.

"Lon, So Young, get ready"

""Yes!""

Ron and So-yeon put the large, shallow bowl they brought together under Griffon-like.

We pour sake there.

"There are three types of sake this time."

"Huh ... It's a great deal, but just sake ..."

Griffon complains.

I want you to feel safe.

I also brought a knob.

"Please, Griffon, this is a deer I got."

"I'm a wild boar."

Rosward and Gram served the meat chunks on their backs.

Sprinkle salt and spices gently on the meat mass and present it to Griffon-like.

"Not only meat but also fruits"

Lulu served the fruit he had on his back and presented it like Griffon.

Sake, meat, fruits.

It is a huge meal.

"Huh, you know!"

Griffon laughs with satisfaction.

Maybe laughing. Because the face is an eagle, I don't know the change of the expression.

"Is the baby there your son and daughter?"

Griffon turned his attention to Fiona and Ankus, which Yulia and Tetra have.

Julia and Tetra walk up to Griffon-sama.

"This girl is my daughter ... Fiona."

Julia shows Fiona with Griffon's face.

Julia isn't very close to Griffon, so she's nervous.

Tetra, on the other hand, smiles.

"This is my son ... Ankus."

Gryphon approached the beak to the two babies, who were sleeping peacefully.

I poke my cheek with a beak.

“A baby is a cute thing, whether it ’s a human, a boar, or a deer.

"I know"

If you live up to three years old ...

Will not die.

All we have to do is pray to God.

"Now, let's talk about the current situation."

After that, I met Griffon recently ... talked about our everyday life, of course, war and politics.

Since I am the king, I can't usually talk to Ron comfortably.

But only today, with Gryphon, we drank sake, ate food, and talked.

While we were talking, it was said that everyone would swim and play on the lake.

The lake where I met Julia.

Griffon is a cat and a bird, so he is not good at water.

As a result, it is now open today.

Ron and others carry griffon-like dishes and head for the lake.

Only me, Julia and Tetra are left.

"Griffon, please tell us about Merlin you mentioned earlier."

"It doesn't matter ... are the Rons good?"

I will explain to them later.

Ron, Rosward and Gram dislike difficult stories.

Bless you, you are a fairy, you are immortal, you are old, you are a different world ...

I do not understand the story.

The people themselves will be bored and it will take time to explain each and every one.

It is better not to be there.

It would be more efficient to talk together later.

"Have you been close to Merlin?"

"Family ... Well, if you say close, you can say that you're close. I'm not as close as you are. I met 500 years ago. Well, to my mind, the Ezell monk ... "

"Who is Ezel?"

"The Khalifa patriarch. He was called the great king."

"Harifa?"

I tilted my head unintentionally.

I've never heard of it.

"These are what you call flat-faced people. They came from the end of the east and took control of Gallia, Germanis, Hexpania, and the entire Adernia Peninsula.

Flat face family ...

Surely the ancestors of the different races, Mzio and Alva, who conquered the Adernia Peninsula five hundred years ago.

"What kind of person were you?"

"He's like you"

""I see""

Tetra and Yulia sang together.

Like me ... what is it? I don't know at all.

"I heard Merlin was the wife of a flat-faced patriarch ..."

"Oh, my wife. It was a great turn. I didn't seem to have any children."

Hmm ...

I can't imagine anything.

"But I heard that it was Merlin who defeated the flat-faced patriarch ..."

"I don't want to be asked by me. It's because I was the most confused when I heard that story. It was a really good turn. Like you."

There's no mistake Griffon says, but ...

Well, I don't know what makes humans go wrong.

It may have been cheating.

……that? Even if I have two wives, will I still get stung?

"Isn't it okay to talk about your aunt and her husband? Almus. Now it's about Merlin's immortality."

"Yeah, she came to ask how she would die."

Don't say aunt or grandmother.

It looked like 17 years old.

"That blessing is just a powerful regeneration ability. If you burn or destroy your soul, you die."

"Is it immortal?"

"It's natural. Immortality ... it's a magical area. The priests (fairys) don't have that power."

……magic?

Not magic or magic?

"What is magic? Griffon"

Julia heard what I was concerned about.

"Magic is a step ahead of magic, rather than the final destination. It is a recreation of God's work by hand. Magic was originally a failure of magic. Merlin systematized it, Now that magic is being studied as a useful technique for humans ... it was originally a magical byproduct. "

Julia said that the magic was made by Merlin.

The oldest sorcerer in the world.

Did that mean?

"Can you say that Merlin has not reached the magic?"

"I'm actually a magical girl, Marilyn!" Merlin, dressed in Pink Furi Furi, passed her mind for some reason.

"Oh, I can tell you. Magic is a contraindication that rewrites the laws of the world. If you have a hand, you can feel it with your skin ..... I know that only one person succeeded in realizing the magic."

Griffon looks far away.

Far, far eyes.

"The woman succeeded in 'Stopping Time.' Well, at the same time as success, she died."

In other words, is that difficult?

At first Merlin is not immortal. Can kill.

Is this enough?

"So, we are this ..."

""wait!!""

Julia and Tetra are in line, holding me down.

What?

"Griffon !!!! Learn more about magic"

"What is the law of the world?"

Yulia and Tetra have eaten.

Both of them are shining eyes.

"Well, are you curious? All the good magicians tell you about this story and they all eat. It's the instinct of a creature called a magician. He wants to explore the truth of the world ..."

I'm not interested ...

What's fun

The person who made the spell ... Even if the great genius took 500 years, it was useless.

It must have been decided.

I think it's more constructive to think about today's dinner menu than thinking about that.

"I don't know the details. What I know is ... to use magic you must know the truth of the world."

"Is it true?"

"what is that?"

Yulia and Tetra are curious.

"Everything in the world is recorded ... I read the world memory (Akasik Records), and if I could read even a small part, I would open the door to magic .... I heard that. That's all I have to do. I want to study. I don't care about the laws of the world. It's enough if I sleep, eat and talk to a human like you every day. "
