Declaring that I would try both of them, I was walking through the castle with Julio to prepare for it.

So I decided to meet the opponent face to face.

"This is this, this is His Highness Arnold and Young Master Julio.Where are you going? "

"Ambassador Marcel, I'd like you to show me around the city for a moment."Where is Ambassador Marcel going?Are you going under the Duke of Pastoré? "

It was Marcel who put the bowls together.

Beside Marcel was a knight woman and another person whom he had never seen before.

He's a young man, but he doesn't look like a bodyguard.

“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"He was meeting with me."

Saying that, a young man comes forward.

And I bowed to her face.

I want you to do it a little more gracefully.

What about you?

"My name is Barnabas di Pastore. I am the son of the Duke of Pastoré."

"Was he your son?" I see, is that your father's name? "

"No, now I move more than my father."I'm essentially the person in charge. "

Barnabas dared to emphasize the fact that he didn't like the word grandfather.

Looks like you've got some pride you don't understand. He's weird.

Perhaps I thought it would be more polite to be treated more like a duke than a duke's son.

Sweet.

Either is the same for the prince of the Empire.

"I see, do your best." Ambassador Marcel, is that the woman you're escorting? "

You must have thought there'd be some more conversation.

Barnabas are hardened.

Indeed, Barnabas is the son of the Duke of Pastore, if he reigns as king.

But he hasn't become king yet.

I don't think this is a place to be respectful.

Marcel, the kingdom's messenger, has a higher priority than that.

"Oh, my most trusted bodyguard, Lisette."Lisette, say hello to His Highness. "

"My name is Lisette."

Red hair with short, aligned cuts.

The light armor was unified in red.

She looks more beautiful than cute, but she doesn't like it anyway.

She still has a troublesome expression on her face.

"I hear that Her Highness Arnold is close to the prodigy of Lord Yong's family.She's not the one who's here as an escort?I heard that was the case last time. "

"The Empire has many enemies to prepare for."Maybe he's been sent to another country by now. "

There is only one such thing as a country.

When I laughed with my nose, Lisette took a step forward.

I guess it was because I was too stubborn.

But...

"No, Lisette."

"But!"

"My kingdom fears the Holy Sword.Well, that would be the same in every country.You shouldn't be ashamed. However, I'm not afraid of the House of Yuuki.Without the Holy Sword, it was just a mighty man.The troops can handle it. "

Should I use the Holy Sword?

"If you have all the ingredients you can use, I'd like to hear it."

"The kingdom was home to the devil."

"After that, the Adventurer's Guild firmly investigated.The Kingdom also cooperated fully.If the Kingdom is still in its roots, we should praise the Devil for his lurking.There is no fault in the Kingdom. If you want to use it, you should do it after the devil shows up. "

You don't think the kingdom has anything to do with demons?

"I understand that you can't help it, but we are also trying to prove our innocence.We cannot ignore it and treat it as an enemy of humanity. "

Marcel is right about everything.

There is no evidence that the Kingdom is connected to the devil.All guessing about guilds and empires.

If you only use the Holy Sword, you may be told that you are abusing a weapon to protect humanity.

Are you convinced?

“In the meantime,”

"That's enough. If there's no problem with the Holy Sword, there's plenty to do."

That's why Marcel takes Lisette and Barnabas past us.

"Should I be calling him the Third Prince's sidekick?"I see the situation very well. "

"He is terribly good.I will give you accurate information at the right time.Because of this, many of our ministers went to the princely sect.... "

First of all, it is amazing to come to the Principality at once.

You should praise the Third Prince for sending him.

I know where to cut down the power of the Empire and maximize the benefits for ourselves.

It was Marcel who sent me there to see the big picture.

It would be easier if I had men who could see the whole thing.

There's a hidden masterpiece, isn't there?

I felt the same smell in him because he lied to himself.

I had never heard of Marcel before.

A man like that could have done anything.

Is that all you swore allegiance to the Third Prince, or did you not appear on the stage for another reason?

I don't want to say much, Julio-san.

“What is it?”

"... if that man is more incisive than I thought, then the power struggle may not be the end of it"

What do you mean?

"Blood is flowing. in large quantities,”

If you have an opponent in any situation, you will move in anticipation of what the opponent is going to do.

But what if the opponent can't predict?

Most of the time, we don't like this situation.

Right now, we want to avoid armed conflict.

You think it's a last resort.

But if you don't, if you think you'll lose, you'll move.

"I will fight to the end."I won't let them like it. ”

"It's good to be enthusiastic, but it's the big fools who will fight a battle without winning."First, we'll find a winner. "

For this purpose, there is a guardian.

The opponent that the surroundings put down at a glance.

For now, let's try Oskar and Raul.

What if you two can't be trusted, My Lord Arnold?

“I know, I don't believe it.”
