"Answer Your Highness's question… First of all, why am I partying with two silver men in the bronze class?"

"Yes."

"It will be a big deal that all three of us are adventurers who were originally working in the border city of Multo. In addition, Lorraine has known Augley since she was a copper, and there was no difference between up and down there."

I can do it now.

It was surprising that Augley, in particular, had risen to the silver class, but it didn't mean that she originally had no strength at all or seemed to have no future.

I knew it would come up sooner or later, and I was ready.

That was faster than I thought, that's all.

I'm not particularly jealous.

Because I have said so much in the last decade that I don't like the experience of being outrun by colleagues who have been in the same bronze class before.

Besides, it's also big to say that my dream is to be divine and silver, and that what others do is basically irrelevant.

"Was it...... but it seems a little different that we're still having a party?

That would be right.

Whatever we do with me and Lorraine, Augley's place of activity is the King's Capital.

Her Royal Highness won't know the details of what she said, so maybe she feels unnecessarily so.

Speaking of adventurers who have come to the Wang capital goes up and down.

If the class leaves, you should say that the party so far is dissolved, that it's not uncommon, or rather a lot.

This is not because of thin feelings, but because even those who have made a difference in power work together will end up in trouble later.

It is not good to be in a situation where the strong have to divide their power greatly to protect the weak, and they cannot demonstrate their strength.

As an Adventurers' Union (Guild), there seems to be a sense of problematique around it, and party members' good offices to such people are relatively keen.

It's a habit not to do much with newcomers... newcomers may think it's more efficient to get rid of them there because they're getting fewer and fewer.

It's intelligent.

"Perhaps that question refers to the time I went to see His Highness during this time..."

"Yes."

"Then that was just temporary and partying. Usually, me and Lorraine are malts and Augley operate in the King's Capital, so it's not a fixed party."

To this word, the princess nods as she is convinced.

Plus after this, I thought the question would come up as to why, but I don't really want to get stuck, so I go on.

"And this, about the skeleton mask..."

"Oh! I was so curious about that!

Pong, and His Royal Highness the Princess, who knocked her hand well and nodded.

Apparently, it's a good thing. I realize you succeeded in getting off topic.

By the way, what I didn't want to be asked is why I was coming to King's Capital from Malt... well, you're an adventurer.

There is deceit no matter how much you ask.

It's just that you lied to me later, and I have trouble telling you that, so I tried not to lie to you as much as possible.

Nevertheless, Her Royal Highness eats well, but I guess that's natural too.

It's not so uncommon to call yourself an adventurer in a mask, because few people choose such a creepy thing in a skeleton.

Not at all, but rarely seen.

Once or twice I used to walk a malt, I wonder if I saw it.

A normal mask would do quite a bit.

Birds, cats, dogs. That kind of guy.

Something unusual, maybe a guy with an awesome abstract motif or something, but that kind of guy is a real weirdo.

Better stay away from me.

Wait... there's no chance I'm being seen like that...?

I realized the fact that I didn't really want to notice. It was me.

Either way, get your mind back on it and keep going.

"I'm sorry that we don't have so much to talk about this..."

"Really?

"Yeah. Previously, when I injured my face, I tried to hide it until I could cure it with healing techniques, restorative drugs, etc. I asked someone I know to buy me some proper mask... this is what the acquaintance brought"

"... are you hurt yet?

I guess the question is, is this not healing?

But the answer to this is clear.

"No, I'm cured now"

"Then why are you still wearing it..."

I say to His Highness, who tilts his neck.

"Thank you for this mask, it's quite unusual… it doesn't come off"

It was Nauss who reacted to this word.

"No way, is it a curse?

What a face he brings in.

But I shook my head sideways.

"No, it doesn't seem so. If it's a curse, can't you bring it in here?

This is the royal palace.

Measures against what I have said are not the ratio of normal places.

To this, Nauss,

"... Hmm, sure... Nevertheless, I'm not saying absolutely. It used to be, but some crooks brought in powerful curses."

"Such a person..."

As a matter of fact, I'm a crook myself.

Demons.

I know you're not saying you can't go in there without exception at the time you're putting it in.

Nevertheless, I continue with the treatment that what Nauss is saying is only an exception.

"But I'm not. And this mask. This is... Hi, it seems to be close to the artifact."

"The artifact...?

"Yes, I am slight, but I was holy..."

As I say, flutter, and visualize the holy temper and let it appear.

It's a technology that I couldn't do before, but I've been able to do it lately.

I guess from around where I learned vampire moves...... I feel like I have something in common.

I'm not sure where they say it is.

"... indeed, this is the glow of the Holy Qi..."

Naus nods.

"This is exactly what the Spirit who lives there gave me at random when I previously repaired a small shrine that had been abandoned. So I'm so weak...... I had a chance to see that spirit again. When I asked him about the mask, he told me that it was close to divine objects. I've been told I don't know the details."

I still think he should explain it in more detail, but that's what God and the Spirit are for.

To be honest, there's nothing I can do about all this.

"Divine artifacts..."

Are you surprised by my explanation, Your Highness?

... No?

Something. Don't even think this is different...

"Naus, this is..."

His Highness then looked at Naus and made some eye contact.

I know that some kind of information was communicated between the Lord's obedience... but I wonder what it is.

I'll face Lorraine and Augley, but they don't seem to get it either.

It's a common story about spirits, and I don't know much about masks, so I thought I didn't need to hide them so much... but I thought maybe I said something bad.
