The Nakayama Army, led by Nakayama's youngest brother, Kagali, defeated the rebellion in Daixing Mountain provoked by the remnants of Mt. Takayama and rushed to the western capital.
The victory report had already been relayed by a foreboding messenger, and the returning expeditionary forces were not greeted by the cheers of the residents of Xidu.
Nishido was the king's city of the mountains until recently. Most of those who dwell there are the inheritors of the mountains. Many of them took control of Zhongshan and did not throw themselves into rebellion. Nevertheless, I do not rejoice in the defeat of my former master.
Therefore, the return of Kagari became independent of the splendor of the triumph, and the array of Nakayama travelling along the main streets of the west metropolis was surrounded by a solemn atmosphere.
However, Kagari did not care about it, and his chest was stretched out gracefully on the corner edge (black kirin). The figure was full of refreshing wind and majesty as the king's younger brother.
I don't know if it's because of that, but it looks like we've been stuck at the end of the army with little attention.
The four of us here are me, Claire, Ursula, and Klimt. Also included are Lan and Yamato's siblings, who are the survivors of the Tsuboyama royalty. It seems that it is Nakayama's judgment that these two people do not take the form of captives in consideration of the people's hearts of the old Mt. Tsubaki.
Of course, there are guards and surveillance guards around the area to prevent escape and rebellion. The surveillance included Dogha, Kagari's brother, and Old Man Sozai, an elder of Nakayama.
The Dogas put their siblings and us together in one place to avoid the hassle of surveillance, but it may also include the reason that Lan and Yamato did not want to leave Klimt's side.
The sight of Klimt Berge being admired by the old demons was quite spectacular. When I thought about it, I sneezed, and the gaze that was about to be shot from the other side flew out, so I shrugged my shoulders and removed my gaze.
Too much teasing makes Kreya and her siblings angry. Klimt had lost one arm in the battle against Weiwei (depressed), and the journey from Daxing Mountain to Xidu seemed to suffer a lot.
I brought such a Klimt to Xidu because even when I was in Daxing Mountain, I was so weak that I didn't have a chance to be treated. The means of returning to the House of the Sword could not be used in many ways. We had no choice but to head for the West End.
When I returned to Nishito, I didn't expect to recover, but at least it would be better than being in a fort on the periphery. That's what I thought.
--And this aim works for good luck.
We walked through the gates of the King's Palace with Kagari and the others, and we headed for the office of the Middle Mountain King. because it was so offered.
There were three people waiting for us.
One is Asma Nakayama, the owner of the office.
The white-skinned prince who stood beside him to protect his asma was probably Hakuro, his brother, just above Kagari.
Standing face to face with them is an old man dressed in white. It belongs to the same suit that Ouken wore when he fought on Kogashima Island before, that is, it belongs to the Hikaru Shrine. From a majestic standpoint, it seems that he is one of the executives of the Kwangjin Sect.
Azma and the old man were opposite each other at the desk in the office.
A large wooden box is placed on the desk, and the lid is opened to reveal the contents.
It is likely that the old man in plain clothes dedicated himself to Azuma, but the expressions of Azuma and Hakuro were stiff, and it didn't seem like they were very happy.
That should have been the case, and it was the human head that had settled in the wooden box. A white-haired neck that has been cleaned clean and salted to prevent it from rotting.
I recognized his face. I only made face once, but that fierce sword muscle was hard to forget.
Weiwei (depressed). We had an unexpected reunion with the use of the "Nakaki" ceremony in front of the Klimts, naming the head of the Higashiomi clan.
◆◆
"His Majesty Nakayamao, I sincerely apologize for the great inconvenience caused to His Majesty and the people by the foolishness caused by the outsiders in the sect, and for being the Pope who cannot leave the main shrine."
Having said that, the old man who calls himself Archbishop hangs his head deeply.
It seemed that the wet kneeling on the floor was full of shame from the bottom of my heart, but of course, Azuma did not nod easily.
"Outsiders in the cult. In other words, this incident was a rampage of some believers, and it was unacceptable for the Holy Father - is that so, Archbishop?"
"Thank you very much." Mr. Sang, who is headed by such a depressed person, was originally bloodthirsty, and often behaved in a manner that was not in keeping with the will of the Holy Majesty. Even so, the Holy Majesty was generous enough to shelter you, but... the Holy Majesty who listened to you this time [this time] to help you with your rebellion, decided not to allow you to behave yourself any more. Already, the following, all those connected to the Prime Minister, have been defeated by our comrades. This body heard the voice of the ball under the holy shrine, and in order to beg for forgiveness for this failure, I came before His Majesty to speak of the Hakuro-sama who was in the main hall. "
The archbishop repeated his words afterwards, but in the end, it was nothing but a tail-cut. At least that's all I hear. It was even clearer and easier to understand.
Anyway, it is suspicious that the depressed man who brought his neck defeated the other Sang-san. The reason for bringing Hakro was that he feared that by leaving Hakro in the main hall, he would be able to see through their falsehoods. I thought so.
Of course, I won't say it out loud. I understand that I am an unrelated third party in this situation. Besides, to be honest, I was also interested in the future development.
Do you think that such a transparent excuse can lead to Nakayama? Maybe not. According to Doga and Kagali, there are many Light Gods in the Middle Mountains. Mitsujin Shintoism is judging that Nakayama will not punish us anyway.
In fact, if Nakayama turned his troops to the main shrine of the Kwangjin Sect, the chaos that could not be compared to the rebellion of Mt. Takayama would strike Nakayama. I wonder how Azma and her three brothers will judge the situation.
I was thinking about it, like other people, but the Archbishop's gaze was suddenly on me.
There is also a story about the Imperial Household of the Sword.
Huh?
I didn't expect the archbishop to speak to himself at this time and give him the name of the Imperial Sword Clan. I was surprised to hear the voice of bewilderment.
They repeated their words in spite of our confusion.
"I sincerely apologize for the disrespectful behavior of Wei Wei (depressed) and Zhen Du (properly) --that is the word of His Holiness." And since the young man's right arm was cut off by Wei Wei (depressed), we will treat him responsibly, so it is the wish of the Holy Lord that all of us should come to the main hall. "
Originally, the inconvenienced Mitsugami Shrine (here) would go there for treatment, but only the Pope can perform the miracle of "restoration".
However, the pope cannot leave the main hall to maintain the seal of the serpent. Therefore, it is up to the Archbishop to invite you to be disrespectful while knowing that---that, the Archbishop hung his head deeply against us as he had done against Azma earlier.
