Monster no Goshujin-sama

8. Talking to the Wolf

Eight.

Empty tracking line started.

I was to get into the leading dragon and give directions if necessary.

Most importantly, yes, it is not necessary to indicate the direction frequently.

Most of the time it was like waiting.

So, has it been about two hours?

Beyond the wilderness, the view under his eyes had turned into a forest.

Until the 'door of the other world', which was robbed, there is a distance.

It still seemed like waiting time for a while.

"... but don't shake it"

I snapped with a sense of simplicity.

This is the second time I've ever made an empty journey on the back of a dragon.

But that didn't happen if you asked me if I was used to it compared to the first time.

Unlike airplanes and such, the top of the dragon's back is peeled off and there are no seats.

The wind is a direct hit. Vision is so indefensibly high that you feel like you're in danger of death.

In addition, the upward and downward movement of the wings is stiff.

Worse than before.

Occasionally I even had the feeling of falling almost free for a few meters, and each time, I felt more bloody.

Now I think Sadias, who was accompanying Shenzu, may have been used to flying people on that one.

"Your face is tense. - Yes, sir."

"... all this"

Lily peeked into my face trying to push my body perfectly from my womb in case I ever fell.

"Don't you feel bad? Tell me if you need a break, okay?

"It's okay."

Some complained of motion sickness and fatigue from the unfamiliar expedition, so they already took a break once.

It's forbidden to impose, but it takes some patience.

I guess I passed on those thoughts.

Lily turned her gaze elsewhere without recommending it any further.

"Is Berta okay, too?

"... whatever"

What returned was a terribly hard voice.

The look on the wolf's face is hard to grasp, but he's clearly not well.

Lily said worryingly.

"Same goes for your husband, but Berta's a 'no-go'."

"... that's not true"

"My tail's in my crotch."

Berta strayed from her gaze, pointing out more emotional parts than people's expressions in certain respects.

"... the big sky is incompatible with beasts running through the earth"

"It sounds like a lot of fun to stop."

"That would be... an exception. She enjoys everything."

Silan, the handrail, was now taking care of him.

He is held over his chest and his eyes are narrowed across the street.

There are no signs of fear at all around the occasional caution trying to climb onto your head.

Seeing her like that, Berta breathed all the time.

"You're invincible in a way."

There were signs of laughter in my voice.

Maybe that's how we talked could have distracted him a little.

"Speaking of which,"

And, go on, Berta has been shaking the subject.

"I was wondering what Shi Chiya Jingu was thinking about destroying the 'cornerstone of the world' in this case?

Sometimes I didn't have much time before I left, and I didn't have a place to calm down and talk about this inexplicable behavior of the Shrine Superintendent.

"Frankly, I suffer from understanding. I just broke the 'cornerstone of the world' and it's not like I can go back to the original world. Isn't what you're doing disintegrating?"

Berta put her ears to sleep and said in a roaring voice.

I know how you feel, so I gave you half my consent.

"You sure do. It's just possible that it's not."

"What do you mean?

"Sure, but I talked to Kato, and maybe Shinto Jingu is fooled"

Even Kato's thoughts didn't seem to have solidified yet, but I heard what I came up with before I left.

"Look, someone told Shinto Jingu about the location of the 'Foundations of the World', and we had a conversation.

In one way or another, Kato even cared more about you than the Shinto Shrine.

"When it came to destroying the cornerstone of the world, he said he was blown into it."

"No, wait. I guess some of them knew the right facts about the 'cornerstone of the world'. I would have told Shijiya Shimiya that correctly. Why do you have to lie only partially?

"That's the other way around"

"Reverse?"

"The most effective way to lie to others is to mix truth with lies."

Berta thought for a few seconds, then reversed her hair to understand.

"By daring to tell the truth about the absurd world correctly, you said the goal was to mix up lying drama drugs in it?

That's what I'm talking about.

"Wow. You think horrible things about people."

As always, it was a sensibility that I didn't think was under the command of the Demon King.

I tightened my lips loose because I felt rustic fondness.

"I can feel confident that The Founding Stone of the World is something that really creates the world, but not for the Shrine Superintendent. I should have thought that the story of the truth about the world involving the 'cornerstone of the world' would be absurd cod. But I knew it was true."

"... that 'How to Return to the Original World' would be the right one in the same way?

"You can't deny it if you're reasoned like that."

So we should pay more attention to 'informants' and 'intentions instigated as such' rather than 'why did Shimiya make such a mess of tea like this one' on this matter - that was Kato's opinion.

Nevertheless, that is the question......

You thought the same thing, now Robbie opened his mouth.

"But, Takahiro. What the hell did that informant do that for? Destroying the 'cornerstone of the world' is just going to ruin this world. Doesn't make any sense."

"... right"

There, I was wondering, too.

"What's wrong has no advantages, and the disadvantages are deadly. It's definitely inexplicable. Just..."

"Just?"

And I frowned upon Robbia, who blinked a large, suspended eye.

"It's not like I don't know who's doing this."

"On your mind?"

While Robbia was neat, Berta had her eyes open to see if she noticed anything.

"Informant to the metastasizer...... this M.O. with bad chest feces...... no way"

My tail stretched out and I said in a roaring tone.

"Hey, 'Voice from Heaven'?

"Oh. I was thinking the same thing"

Berta's "voice from heaven" is a metastasizer who was involved in the Fort Chile raid.

The only thing we know is that the identity is unknown and possesses inherent capabilities like telepathy of telecommunications.

"I just don't see how you could have done this, even if the M.O. was similar."

I frowned.

"If the world is ruined, I'm not just sorry myself. Even though there is perhaps something delightful about Voice from Heaven, I just didn't know that I had been harmed..."

"Oh no. Maybe not."

When I twisted my neck that I didn't understand, Berta pinched my mouth.

In his eyes, there was a colour of anxiety.

"I remember what my king said before."

"Kudo?... Speaking of which, did Kudo have something to do with Voice from Heaven?"

It was Kudo who first hinted at his presence at Fort Chilea with regard to "Voices from Heaven".

I was not surprised to have some information.

"'Voices from Heaven' had occasional contact with my king. Nevertheless, it was quite one-sided, and the king was wary of information being used as bait to manipulate his actions, mostly appropriately, and very rarely by taking the back of the information and moving it, he set up use and disruption. The failure of the transferees, which was the cause of the False Brave case, is an example of information that was successfully extracted from Voices from Heaven."

"You mean 'Voice from Heaven' was moving around a lot"

Where I don't know, there may have been an intelligence battle with Kudo.

As a result, part of what was obtained would have been communicated to Berta.

"Part of the metastasizer who failed during the False Brave case may also have been instigated by" Voices from Heaven "for a moment. That's what my king used to call a 'serpent to instigate'." A delightful man in search of ruin. "

"'Delightful criminals seeking ruin'..."

It was as if the words I uttered would creep bitterly in the back of my throat.

Regardless of the case of Fort Chile, or the case of Jun Takaya, I certainly did not find the 'Voice from Heaven' a delightful offender.

At least, it doesn't look like he was profiting from anything.

In addition to that, Kudo, who was interacting directly, said he felt something ruinous there.

Berta narrowed her eyes to remember her conversation with her Lord.

"'A delightful man seeking ruin' … in this case, ruin is a story that includes his own. In the sense that we are pushing for our own ruin, there are similarities to my king, but come on. The stance is different. The actions of Voices from Heaven, which have no purpose, are essentially meaningless. It's just a bad taste, pointless, ruinous."

"... I see"

The ruin of the world to be caused.

The killer who loses his lover and is even danced to the thought of it.

And someone who instigated it.

"If you ask me, surely, is this situation pointless and ruinous with bad taste? It's no surprise there was a voice from heaven behind this one..."

In the first place, I don't think there are many people who imitate such a nasty thing, limiting themselves to cases involving metastasizers.

It was natural to doubt involvement.

The same is true of Fort Chilea, but I am also in pain of 'voice from heaven' when I am pure Takaya.

In retrospect, the spiciness had something to go through this time.

He looked at me with a bitter face and asked me how Berta noticed.

"Takahiro Mashima had something to do with Voice from Heaven."

"Oh. Twice before...... no. If you are also involved in the Shrine Superintendent, will you do it three times?"

If there is a "voice from heaven" behind a well-timed betrayal to the status quo after the Shrine Master raided inside the Dragon Abyss, secretly robbed the "cornerstone of the world" and was hostile to Me on my side to the Cathedral Church, then so be it.

Berta twisted her tentacles in frustration.

"Three times, even though there was no direct contact. It was a bad coincidence."

"... is it really a coincidence"

And the twinkle came into my ear, and I looked back.

Lily's face with a difficult face caught my eye.

"Lily? What? If it's not a coincidence," Voices from Heaven "is deliberately giving me a little"

"I don't know about Jun Takaya, but I think so."

"Well... but at least I don't remember being bothered by Voices from Heaven."

When I said it, Lily lowered her brow butt and smiled.

"Yeah. Maybe I think too much"

"It's slime. I know how it feels, but I can't help thinking too much about the deal."

Berta said.

I guess you know a lot about the pointless spiciness of 'Voices from Heaven' just to see Kudo, the Lord, in contact.

"We should only think about frustrating his intentions and protecting Takahiro Mashima"

"Right."

Lily nodded and put a lot of effort into the arms she turned from her back to my body.

It was just waiting time to hurry, but I could hear unexpected stories.

I wouldn't have heard Kudo's view of 'Voice from Heaven' if it wasn't from Berta.

It would be better to keep in mind that 'voices from heaven' may be involved, although there is no certainty at present.

In conclusion, I turned again to Berta.

"Still, it's bad for Berta"

"What are you talking about?"

"Also, I got caught up in our situation"

He says he'll protect me, but he's in a different position with the rest of his family and Berta.

Most importantly, Berta just waved her tail gently towards me to apologize.

"Never mind. As I said before, your escort is the command of my king and my desire."

Berta rang her throat small.

Anyway, it looked fun.

"I think I'm familiar with it a lot too."

"Right. Something that was stuck at first."

If Lily got in tune, she stopped shouting "ku" all the time.

In retrospect, he was now on the lookout for Berta when he first started accompanying him.

Indeed, it should be said that Berta is now familiar.

"I thought the king abandoned me at first, and it was a lot of worrying..."

In nostalgia, she mumbled in a mundane manner.

I leaned my neck.

"Berta? What's wrong?

"... no. I just remembered something."

Berta seemed to laugh bitterly.

"I talked to Yuna Iino."

"With Iino?

"Oh. It was just before they flew me to another world."

"... Speaking of which, were you with Iino just before he was flown from the Imperial City room to another world?"

Not surprisingly... I guess not.

It is disproportionate when it comes to the main members of the Expedition, a group of brave men, and the most powerful monsters under the command of the Demon King, but Berta has a secret.

The nature of Scylla Berta is twofold with the appearance of Ryumiya, Iino's best friend.

I'm not sure if that area is affecting me, but apparently the two were in the middle of a conversation.

"Did they say something?

"Mm-hmm. While I was in Imperial Capital, I would have decided that I had become a family member of Takahiro Mashima because there was no way the demon king's men could make contact with the expedition? Laugh when Yuna Iino says she's glad. My king said it was because I did not deserve it. On the contrary, I always thought I was a little surprised."

I was a little twitchy.

Although Iino doesn't know, Berta's loyalty to Kudo hasn't changed.

That statement seemed like stepping on the tail of a tiger against her.

But surprisingly, Berta didn't seem angry and spoke in a calm tone.

"Haven't we ever talked about this...... the king only names his prospective subordinates in turn. It is called the 'Phonetic Code' in the world where the King was. followed in turn by A (Anton), B (Berta), C (Zeser), D (Dora)"

"It's my first ear. If so, is Berta second?

"Don't be like that. But for a king seeking a disposable pawn, I had too much to waste while being given a name. It was" Born Yes ". I didn't deserve a king. That's what I thought. But I was talking to Yuna Iino, and I thought maybe that was different."

Berta waved her tail slowly.

"No. Before that, while I was traveling with you, I noticed. Which is not worthy of which? It depends on how you perceive yourself."

The nature of Berta, which is simple, well looked after and purely wishes for the happiness of those who matter, can be described as virtuous if it is in the light of general values.

She just wasn't blessed with the environment.

While I was under Kudo, I couldn't even notice the fact.

Because it was all about her to be under the king's command.

Not now.

Oddly enough, the Lord, Kudo, kept it away, I guess she could have noticed it.

That's why I'm grateful to you.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Berta told me, bewildered by the words of gratitude he had been told.

"I want there to be at least salvation for the King, who is about to advance to ruin and to reach the end that is with despair. Hoping so, there was not much I could do. The king is the absolute LORD, and I am an incomparable pawn. There's nothing more I can do about this. Because that's what I thought. But you're not."

Berta looked a little embarrassed, waving her tail low to express her joy.

"Me and the king are just different ways. It doesn't mean the king is absolute. Wouldn't it be impossible, then, for my king to choose my way? That's what I thought. And, in fact, my king has accepted my appearance"

"Berta......"

Speaking of which, Berta was fighting Edgar with Kudo, but at that time he was showing himself as the original Scylla.

Scylla's appearance was forbidden by Kudo, and I've seen him punish Berta badly for breaking it without permission before, but given that, that sight is even symbolic.

Fu, I remembered Kudo's interactions while I was acting in that different realm.

- Was that what you were thinking...

- Totally. That's really, really hard to do.

I told Kudo that Berta wanted him to be 'happy to the Lord'.

It was this awful word that came out of Kudo's mouth the first time he heard of his subordination, but surprisingly, he looked really troubled instead of throwing up terribly.

It was probably not intended, it was an indefensible look.

I don't know what Kudo is thinking.

However, I was also curious at that time, but I think that was a slightly off the previous impression of Kudo's relationship with Berta.

Does Kudo really just hate Berta, who can't do it?

Is there something going on there?

If you think about it that way, it's Berta's nature as a Scylla that bothers me.

Long gone during the collapse of the colony, "Dark Beast" Bombing Miya and the two figures of the melon.

Is there still her presence in the middle of the two causes?

When I think about it that way, it also seems to me that Berta's phrase 'I was born to fail to do it' makes sense.

"Berta, you..."

I don't want you to force me to say something I don't want to answer.

But I could not be so heartless with both of them that I could shut my mouth and pretend not to see, and trump up about the wolf in front of me and that miserable, sad demon king.

But here I could not ask beyond.

Before that, the situation moved.

"Sir!

I noticed it at the same time as I heard it.

The fog spread around me.

Salvia emerges from the mist scattered across the street.

"The Door of the Other World is nearby!
