The Imperial capital was wrapped in enthusiasm.

At the heart of this is a group of men and women.

"Your Highness, Trougotte! Banzai!!"

"Princess Marianne! Banzai!!"

The people say the names of Trougotte and Marianne in their mouths.

The wedding between the two took place glamorously.

It was probably a strong political marriage, but in the war after the war, the people of the imperial capital, who looked tired, enjoyed the festival.

Early evening festivals, weddings and late evening festivals.

After the festival, which took three days in total, the two travelled to the clan country.

There was also a prince who left the Imperial Capital to accompany him.

Well then, I'll go.

"Yeah, go ahead."

A short conversation.

It's not a lifetime farewell.But it's the first long goodbye for Al and Leo.

They've been together since they were born.

Say hello to Leticia.

"Yeah."

"... I wish you could have a wedding like this."

"Yes, I hope that's the case."

The two of them stared at the carriage in which Trougotte and Marianne rode.

Two faces waved to the people with a smile on their faces.Though politically motivated, I looked happy.

"I'm sure you'll come. That's the day."

"Let's make it ourselves. Such a day."

"That's right... let's do it"

As he nodded many times at Leo's words, Al headed for the carriage.

The escort is Nelbe Litter.

Since the Knights of the Kintetsu could not be dispatched, they were to be accompanied by escorts in the clan instead.

Please, Captain Lars.

Ha, I'll take care of it.

Quietly, Lars, the captain of Nelbe Litter, gives instructions to his men.

As he watched, Al tried to get into the carriage, but Leo's voice flew in there.

Niisan!

Called and looked back, there was Leo smiling.

And then...

"Cheer up."

"You too."

Thus Al traveled to the clan.

"Looks like you took a painful blow, huh?"

The imperial castle of the Kingdom of Perran.

In his room, Lucian, the prince of the king, murmurs.

The answer was shadow.

Hagenti and Botis, we've lost two of our four executives.

"But the eyes around me have deceived me."

Yes, I will lurk in the darkness like this.When the time comes, I will help His Highness. "

"I look forward to it. Can I refill my tokens?"

"Yes, but not right away.It's not that easy to summon demons. "

"My kingdom needs to be rebuilt."

Lucien frowned in disgust.

I apologize to Lucian for the shadow.

I'm sorry. I've been damaged.

"The problem is not the damage.The army. The elite in the army still admire the Virgin.This prevented me from moving into the Empire. "

He was using his own son's general, but the general was in retribution to Leo.

Those who fought the Empire and the United Kingdom with the Holy Virgin were still the main players.

If they don't use it, they won't see victory.

Is there a solution?

"Hurry up and ruin things.We have no choice but to consolidate the ground in the tunnel and let them admit it. "

Well, how about His Highness for a while?

"That's right, I'm going to be a little bit of an adult myself for a while.But when the time comes, it moves.It is my kingdom that holds the supremacy of the continent. "

That made Lucien ambitious.

Give the shadow to such a Lucian and leave the scene behind.

And after walking through the shadows of many creatures.

Grand Duke, we're ready.

"Thank you. The Kingdom has been under heavy surveillance for a while.We're moving too. "

The person called the Grand Duke laughs.

The executives are gone, but it's cheap if they don't get chased by SS Adventurers.

Only convenient information is left for abandoned bases.

The Adventurer Alliance and the countries of the continent will be satisfied with the information to solve the collaborative route.

This will make it easier to move again.

"Don't fail to monitor the Empire.The double black prince who always bothered me broke up.The threat has diminished, but we should remain vigilant. "

Are you sure you want to take care of it?

"There's always a silver shadow next to them.Keep your hands off me. That magician doesn't know the bottom. "

The Grand Duke laughed again.

Because they knew that it would take humans to get rid of them anyway.

And the Grand Duke becomes a shadow again.

For the coming day.

"Did you go...."

"Yes"

Emperor Sword Castle.

Upstairs, Emperor Johannes groans.

Bedside was Mitsuba.

"It's strange that children nest."

"I feel strange, too."

Are you still worried?

"Of course, I'm your mother."

Mitsuba was laughing as she said.

Johannes smiles with a smile when he sees such a bee.

"Don't you seem too worried?"

"I'm worried about you.I'm worried. I wonder if I can do it well and if I don't get sick.But putting anxiety on the table doesn't solve the problem.So I have a number of reasons why she should be okay.Then a smile comes to mind. "

I see. I'm sure.

John could have imagined what Al would have done if he had been lazy in the clan.

I was more worried about the trough.

I also wondered if Al would be okay if he was there.

"... Erik and Leonard's struggle is superficially sticky."

"It's a situation where we don't have to decide between ourselves.But it's Erik who wins on the ground. "

"Yes, but I can't trust Eric more than one demon.I don't have a guarantee that I won't be like Gordon or Zandra. "

"Nevertheless, we can't keep it away.Erik is still the head of the Empire candidate. "

"Yes, that's why Leonard has to outperform Eric.I can't just be the emperor... but I'm here for you. "

"If you put it on your shoulder, you'll have a futile fight.The feeling alone will suffice for her. But.... "

"But what?"

Makes Mitsuba look like she's thinking a little bit.

Johannes asked after seeing it.

"... Erik has always been a smart kid.That's enough to beat Wilhelm.I wonder why he hasn't moved so much.I don't know. "

"You didn't want to hurt your own forces."

"As a result of my desire not to hurt, my greatest enemy was born.I don't think Eric expected this result.I'm sure there's something going on. "

"... sure."

"Your Majesty, be careful. If Erik had a trump card, it would certainly do you harm.During the empire struggle, I can't say anything sweet.But... I want to see my childhood together. "

"Don't worry, I think so too."

That's how Johannes smiles.

But Mitsuba knew.

The Emperor is ready to die.

Still, I won't pursue it.

That's because it's called the emperor.
