Chapter VII 32: The Way Forward

"How long will it take to bring one fool back?" Do you think that flowing time is worth the same as your concubine? "

"No, that's why you're sorry..."

Greeted by the cold gaze of the Lord, Al bows his head in a shameless manner.

As soon as I brought Subaru back to the conference hall, it was the aforementioned reprimand that awaited Al.

Originally, the goal was to bring Subaru back to the meeting room, so it's no surprise that she gets angry because she talked about it unexpectedly. It's not impossible, but--

"Priscilla, don't blame Al too much. It's not Al that's wrong, it's me."

"Hmm. You must have been consoling each other with a clown with boring troubles." Did you hit the wall with your forehead red? "

"Do you even have a thousand eyes?" I'm scared because it's too accurate

Priscilla searches for Subaru, who is involved in Al's advocacy, with a word like Priscilla's.

It shouldn't have been so commonplace, but Priscilla's insight made her tremble.

No matter what--

"I can't talk without us..."

"The conclusion cannot be drawn easily. After all, you're Abel's army master."

"That's..."

Priscilla's narrow gaze shot through, and Subaru gazed toward Abel. In response to his gaze, Abel, sitting in his seat, silenced Subaru's pursuit with his arms crossed.

I guess it was unwilling to treat Subaru as an army master, but I couldn't retract it before I directly told Priscilla.

As a result, he couldn't even close the meeting without Subaru.

"Are you going to act unexpectedly and strangle me?"

"You are the one who should be careful about the quality of your remarks." Depending on the choice of words, any good strategy will be handled wisely or foolishly. "

"I'm rubbing it like I regret the treatment of an army master..."

Svalbard sighed deeply as he frowned at Abel's overwhelming response.

Then, looking at the faces of the conference hall again - Abel and Priscilla, and then Zikl and Tarita, who had succeeded the chief, looked around and opened one eye.

Without Svalbard and Al, I thought I couldn't reach a conclusion.

"Are you talking about a system of cooperation with Priscilla?" From what I said earlier, Priscilla had someone to help her. "

"It seems like you have enough head to talk about it." Of course, that's what I'm talking about. ― ― Do you remember that if you cut down more of the Nine Divine Generals, you would win?

Yeah. Even the disturbing bugs are useless.

If you become an assassin without collecting it, you won't be able to put your hands on it, and even if you collect it, it won't contribute much in terms of the trend. If this is a simulation game, it is a troublesome unit.

Even if it was an ally, it didn't have much flavor. If it was left to the enemy, it would become a very poisonous opponent.

"That said, it's the ultimate winner." I'm not talking about Priscilla and her allies' support, am I? ”

"-Hmmm"

Priscilla's throat throbbed as she summed up the story.

For a moment, Priscilla's red eyes passed through a curious look that seemed unusual to Subaru's eyes - a reaction that she thought was also of interest to Subaru.

Subaru didn't think he was doing anything special.

"What the hell?"

"No, I thought I had a withered face in that outfit, but I changed my face and eyes and came back." Moreover, if the circulation of blood is somewhat better, the way it looks will change a little bit. "

"... are you being praised?"

"You can jump and be happy."

Not that much.

The fact that it was not denied must be a compliment from Priscilla.

While snorting, Subaru honestly praises his change of heart.

From Lem's mouth, the words that supported Natsuki and Subaru were denied.

However, it is not the case that you are bending your knees, so you are encouraged by this.

Well, in that case, it was worth it to be late for the meeting.

"I see, is it the result of the talk between clowns?" You've become a lot more intimate than you think, Al. "

"Hey, it's ridiculous to catch a nice guy like me and be unkind to someone, princess."

Priscilla scolded me, and Al shrugged his shoulders as he answered.

Neither the words of Priscilla, nor the words of Al, could Subaru judge.

For Subaru, Al was the only one from his hometown and the one who kicked him out by slapping his back through the pocket lanes on all sides. Certainly, I don't think there is anything sinister about being told tough things in other places, or having anything done by other personnel.

"I can forgive you if you think it's an after-effect of spending a lot of time in another world."

"Isn't there something rather unexpected?" I guess it's because of my imagination.

Al was tilting his neck in a way that didn't fall into the ground, but Subaru had listened to him.

What matters is not that Priscilla reviewed Subaru, nor that Al contributed to the change in his feelings.

"All we need is to settle the discussion... how will Priscilla face us in the future?" Let's not get lost in the conversation. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry. The one who's prone to sideways stories has become a military teacher."

――――

Sarcasm returned, and Subaru let out his tongue as Abel narrowed his eyes in a grumpy mood. Then I turned to Priscilla again and encouraged her to continue the talk.

"So, what are we going to do?" With or without the support of Priscilla and her allies, Abel's assault on the Imperial City won't change..... "

Without the princess' support, the level of beatings won't change anymore

"Clown to clown, it's great to be able to breathe together." Anyway, you guys are right. Therefore, in the future, when the concubines support you...... Abel, I made it a condition for you to show that you are worth it. "

Conditions?

"It's not a simple story. ― ― ― Try to have one of the Nine Divine Generals on your side.

To Subaru, who frowned, Priscilla presented the conditions so that nothing would happen.

Listening to the conditions, Subaru muttered in his mouth, "Nine God Generals..."

It's not a ridiculous condition.

In the first place, it is a prerequisite to win more [Nine God Generals] if you are going to fight to reclaim the throne. And Priscilla wants that first step.

Rather, it would be delicious if Priscilla could be added to the party simply by fulfilling the prerequisites for victory.

”What a nice little jump, isn't it?”

"Of course. There are no Nine God Generals who follow me unconditionally because they don't know how safe Goz is." And those who are inclined to go out of their way to lose the battle won't be able to do so. "

"...... If you don't see the winning moment, no one will come in."

Abel, who described the current dire situation, had Subaru's face pinned between his eyebrows with a difficult look.

Abel's sad self-awareness - If the emperor's prestige doesn't work for the [Nine Divine Generals], I wanted Priscilla and her allies' support to be out of my throat.

At the very least, if the collaborator existed, it would have been a bargaining material for dictating the "Nine Gods".

At the moment, Abel could have only this much ingredient: "The real Emperor is himself", and the fighting power of the "people of Shudrak" and the citadel city of Gualal.

Tell them that the city and the tribe will fight the Empire with one force, and I'll see if they can hear me.

”If I was at least an intermediate uncle, I would have been able to negotiate with Priscilla.”

"I'm telling you, don't expect mercy from my concubine." My concubine has forgiveness, but it's not for begging. "

Priscilla, with her cheek stick on, gently stepped on this thin expectation.

I knew it, but it's impossible for her to turn her back. In that case, the only thing left to do was to challenge the conditions presented by the offensive method.

I'm afraid, my lord, I still need to rely on General Cecilus.

Zikl-san, do you have any chances?

In the midst of heavy silence, expectations are placed on Zikl, who spoke that way. However, in response to Subaru's expectation, Zikl shakes his head sideways.

"As you said earlier, in view of the current ratio of fighting forces, those who think about cooperating with us are not serious." That's why..... "

So?

"I wonder if I can only rely on someone like General Cecilus who has an unreasonable idea..."

Ah, Mr. Zikl also thinks that person is crazy

It was Cecilus, who only had sporadic character evaluations, but Zikl was also a hard worker, thinking that he might be on his side because of his insanity.

But if you're serious, you might have to go pick up the nasty unit you need to pull into your side.

"I wonder where the problem is." Where does this person usually live? "

"Usually, they live in an Arachia house in the Imperial Capital."

"I see, Arachia's... why?"

Said plainly, Abel's words delayed Subaru's understanding by a few seconds.

To the suddenness of the content, even Priscilla, the servant, frowned unpleasantly.

According to what I heard, "A" was Cecilus and "A" was Arachia.

"In other words, Cecilus and Arachia are lovers?"

Then the Subaru's impression of defeating Arachia would not be the worst.

Svalbard and the others were going to make enemies of each of them.

However, in response to Subaru's question, Abel shook his head sideways and said, "No."

“No, it's not. Arachia sees an opportunity to kill Cecilus. However, whenever I aim for my life, I can't beat the damage caused by my surroundings. So I commanded Cecilus."

What do you mean?

Anyway, stay where Arachia's easy to target.

"... I see?"

Even after receiving specific explanations, it was difficult for Subaru to understand the relationship.

I don't understand the spirituality of leaving my generals to kill each other, nor do I understand the idea of living in the house of the opponent who wants to kill me accordingly.

In the first place...

"I can't live with someone who tries to kill me..."

After that, the feeling of saying something strange sprouted inside me, but I couldn't find the answer to that discomfort, and Subaru quickly forgot his question.

Anyway, it turned out that Cecilus usually lived in the Imperial City.

"Well then, I'll have to go to the Imperial City to bring Cecilus to my side... is that all right with you up to the Imperial City?"

"That's not possible." As it stands, my approach to the Imperial City is as if I were going to be sentenced to death by fire. Even so, I don't know if Cecilus is in the Imperial City. "

"Then I guess that's a trick..."

The knowledge of Subaru is useless when it comes to military relations in the Volakian Empire.

However, since Zikl, one of the officers, proposed it first, it is believed that it was a better plan than the current situation.

When the proposal was rejected, Abel's path was dark.

”...... even though it's not the case that I'm stomping on this place”

Gradually, something dark and heavy began to assert itself in Subaru's chest.

It's like a bitter stork, a mass of helplessness that didn't disappear when I tried to hit my head against the wall, and it's like an after-effect that caused Lem to curtail Subaru.

Because of this, Svalbard lost his trust in Lem.

We must remove this ripple as soon as possible and regain the trust of her. To do that, every second of the time you're trampling is a waste.

"--You have a hand."

However, Abel's words kept Svalbard from biting his teeth.

To Subaru, who raised his face as he was bounced, Abel turned his face with one eye closed.

"Don't look at me like I'm tired of seeing you." I've got my hands full. "

"I'm sorry, but my face was at my limit when it comes to character makeup that can be made without charging a fee." I don't care about the difference between the rich and the poor on such faces. What do you mean, you have a hand? "

"It's Zikl's idea. I'll partly adopt it."

"Part of my plan? It's an honor, but is that...?"

Zikl is puzzled to hear that he has adopted his opinion while frowning thickly.

Subaru felt the same confusion as Zikl. In the first place, Zykl's plan was to solicit Cecilus of [Mi].

Since I couldn't make it to the Imperial City, I had no choice but to reject the plan, and I didn't think there was anything else I could use.

And when she thought about it, Abel snorted, "Hmph."

"I don't get a chance to talk to Cecilus." But Zikl said the same thing. - If you don't have a serious idea, there's a possibility. "

"--Oh! No way... My lord, that's dangerous!" Please reconsider!! "

Huh? Huh? Huh?

Abel's words switched and Zikl ate down.

The black-and-white curtain of Zikl surprised Subaru.

Zikl seemed to have a clue, but Svalbard didn't have a clue. From the flow of the conversation, it seems that he is trying to bring the conversation to the insane person.

Is there anyone more insane than a desperate Cecilus?

"I'm not saying I'm crazy! But that person is too dangerous...!"

"... well, I can understand the story of the General of Afro, but from the flow of talks, that's one of the Nine God Generals, right?" If you don't, there's finally no candidate to rely on, right? I don't think it's a situation where you can choose what you like. "

"That's right, that's right..."

Svalbard and Al spoke on both sides, and Zikl was silenced with a sinister face.

When I saw Zikl, who had a good personality, suffering, I felt that Subaru and the others had done worse.

Rather, there will be a problem with Abel's HR, who has people in key positions who Zikl cannot help but worry about.

It is a practical example that such a tragedy occurs when people are recruited by their abilities alone.

"Lugnica turned out to be pretty good at that... Basically, I met someone I hate with a great guy... no, but there were some people who said bad things about Emilia."

It's also part of the statement that comes from an excessive fear of the [Witch of Jealousy].

At that time, I didn't know what was going on, and the foolish hero who had only been armed with a barrage of guns was Subaru. Even if I were to encounter the same situation, I would have been able to do it with better equipment.

Of course, I didn't have a choice but not to challenge Emilia.

So, who is the cause of Mr. Zikl's suffering?

"Oh, my God, that's a ridiculous phrase."

And in pursuit of Subaru, Abel gave a frightened look.

If you follow your rhetoric, it's Yoruna Michigre based in the Demon Capital Chaos Frame.

"Yoruna Michigle..."

On the back of the name of an unknown city, the name of a person was remembered.

And Jorna Michigre was one of the Nine Godly Generals, whose nickname was indeed-

"Was it called" Extreme Color "or something like that?"

"Don't do it, brother. You must have learned it in one shot."

"I like to remember the two names of executives in comics." That said, this Yoruna is Mr. Zikl's.... "

While saying it, Subaru turned his gaze to Zikl, and Subaru lost his words.

Because Zikl was covering his pale face with his own hand.

"The [Lacquer] of the Nine Divine Generals, General Yoruna Michigre..."

"Is he such a bad guy?" From the name, I thought it was feminine... "

If that impression is correct, it means that even Subaru, who is known by the nickname of "I like women", is a woman who is afraid of Zikl, who acted gentlemanly.

I can't imagine what kind of personal effects will pop up, but--

“It's beautiful, and that's something that everybody, not just me, will recognize. However, there are a few problems with General Yoruna... no, I'm sorry about that."

"Well, that's not a problem, is it?"

"It's a conspiracy."

Huh?

Svalbard and Al's voice overlapped with words that spilled from Zikl's mouth.

Zikl continued in a trembling voice with his face covered with his hands, dumbfounded and suspicious that he had misheard his ears.

“General Jorna Michigre is a rebel who has repeatedly rebelled and threatened the reign of Emperor Vincent Vorakia.”

"Don't put him in the general's position!!"

And the second Subaru's rage resounded in the conference hall.

△▼△▼△▼△

--It looks like you've got your talk together.

With the information of the incredible "Nine God Generals" and Subaru's fury echoed for a while, judging that he had seen the settlement of the discussion, Priscilla made a noise and opened the fan.

As for Subaru, to be honest, I wanted to settle the matter--

"There's no other way. Currently, Yoruna Michigre is the only Nine Divine Generals who could be here."

"In the first place, you weren't insulted because you hated me...?"

"No, I can't say that at all... at least it's impossible for me to extrapolate his thoughts."

"If Zikl-san said that, I guess so..."

Subaru had no choice but to draw suspicion from the words of his trustworthy friend Zikl.

And when Abel heard it, he snorted unpleasantly.

"If it's your opinion, Zikl, what are you going to ask easily?"

"Even with the same opinion, it doesn't matter who said it." Do you think you have more trust in me than Mr. Zikl? "

"I see. But what if Zikl dies?"

I'll kill you in a thought experiment!

I let Abel scream when he said something noisy.

Zikl's loyalty would be unacceptable if Abel commanded him to commit suicide. Subaru did everything he could to prevent that from happening.

No matter what--

"Anyway, that chaos frame... was it?" Where is it? Are you far from Guaral? "

"Not in terms of location." That is also one of the reasons why it is appropriate as the next destination to aim for. From here it is southeast...... south of the dense forest of Badheim. "

"I see, indeed..."

The map on the desk shows the location, and Subaru is satisfied with Abel's description.

The location of the Chaos Frame is south of the forest where the Shudrak people lived - farther than the dense forests and Guaral, but far more realistic than the Imperial Capital and even the western lands.

Why is it called the Demon City?

"Don't worry, fool. It's no reason to crush your cowardice." This is a chaotic city with more races than ever before. Besides, Vorachia is home to many different races compared to Lugnica, but the Chaos Frame is particularly mixed. "

"Chaos... that's why it's the Demon Capital."

When I start to say it, it also means that the city called "Chaos" is called "Chaos".

More than being in a different world, it must be a coincidence.

― ― In the Demon Capital, Yoruna Michigre, the [lacquer] of the Nine God Generals, was added to the umbrella. If that happens, you'll open your chest collar... no doubt, Priscilla. "

"It doesn't matter." What, the concubine is not generous? I will not add any conditions later. "

"I thought you said that tolerance was out of stock... no, it's nothing"

Priscilla stared at Subaru, and Subaru quickly withdrew his extra remarks.

That way, when this policy has been correctly determined,

Abel, please take me with you.

Mr. Talitta?

Suddenly, Tarita, who stood up, pleaded with Abel.

During the meeting, it was Tarrita who was sitting in place of Kuna, but she had never tried to open her mouth before.

All of a sudden, there may have been some confusion about succeeding the chieftain, but now her face, staring at Abel, has a thick color that seems to be stuck.

And when Abel had received the plea, he narrowed his black eyes,

"What are you going to do? You must have taken over the seat of the Shudrak Patriarch from your sister." Regardless of your confidence, it won't wobble. "

"All right, Tess, now. Sister, the position ceded from above, I can't refuse it....... That's right, I'm not strong enough to lead the Shudrak clan right now....."

Tarita, who was facing down, gnashed her lips and stared at her hand.

In her empty hand, she grips perhaps the same thing that Subaru held in her chest - that is, a feeling of helplessness that pushes herself.

"I need it...... I can carry the chief's position with pride"

"--Are you going to ask for that for the road to the Chaos Frame?"

"I don't think so, Su....... you can't do it."

Since then, you've lost confidence, and you've lost power from Tarrita's voice.

However, Subaru understood Tarrita's anxiety and his true identity.

With a sudden change of chieftaincy drama, Tarrita could not be confident that she was worthy of the role.

In other words, what she wants is a successful experience. A successful experience where you are recognized for achieving results that only convince you by yourself.

─ That was fundamentally the same thing Subaru wanted right now.

"Abel, I agree." Even if you follow Misserda's trail with such feelings, I don't think Tarrita will be able to use her powers..... "

――――

"Besides, you'll need an escort on the road anyway, right?" We know what Mr. Talitta is capable of. Together in women's clothes... I'm the one who got into the city. "

"Nut mi..."

I paraphrased it along the way, but that's what I'm trying to say.

Tarrita's impressed look was on Subaru's side. Her painstakingness made it painfully clear. I want to take your side.

If you leave, what will Shudrak do?

"For a while, I'll leave it to your sister." Kuna and Holly often assisted. Protect Guaral Mehn, the crowd can't move "

Have you thought about that during the silence?

Abel appreciates Tarrita's uncompromising response.

Then Abel tapped his temple with his finger.

"There are only a few people heading to the Chaos Frame." Of course, I don't need to see Yoruna Michigre. But I'm not going to break in. "

"At most, the guards can take you with them..."

"I'll add you to that, Tarita, and then--"

"--I 've heard your story!!"

In the middle of Abel's story, the door was opened vigorously, and a figure stepped in mightily.

It was Flop O'Connell, a good merchant, who unscrupulously dismissed the emperor as a new friend.

The flop has a rough nose and keeps the gaze of the room private.

"Miss Tarrita, I was very impressed by your willingness to volunteer for such a big job!" I suddenly find my own way to take on the big role... I think it's very good! "

"Ah, thank you, Flop..."

"In order to keep you and the village chief safe on the road, I'd like to make a suggestion." ― ― It would be nice to take my sister's medium!

With a flick of his finger, Flop asserts so vigorously.

Inadvertently, I was about to nod because of the momentum, but if I examined the content, it was a rather sudden proposal.

Well, what's your heart like?

"Yeah, yeah, I bet you're wondering. Now, let me tell you why I recommend Medium! First of all, my arm is standing, and I have love. Besides, I like smooth tongues!"

"Slip your tongue...!"

"I'm sure you won't miss the conversation on the road because it feels so good." I can get along with anyone because I don't know anyone. What do you think, fugitive? "

Flop admires his sister while showing her white teeth. However, two-thirds of his confident selling points touched on the medium-liking nature of the person, and essentially only one point of sale could be a point of sale: “be good at what you do”.

In fact, Subaru has confirmed that one of these points will function properly.

But, did you talk to Mr. Medium about that?

"No, I didn't!" But I'm going to tell you! "

"...... are you okay?"

It's not a travel consultation or a play appointment.

Would it work to consult later, even if you were thrown into a life-saving role? Now that I have a crack in my siblings, I don't feel comfortable with Subaru either.

However, I was afraid that my brothers and sisters would come up with pictures that seemed to be accepted with a smile.

Suppose that Medium-san is OK, Abel, what about you?

"--- That skill is appropriate." If I'm going to do my part, I'm going to do mine. "

"Then you can rest assured!" Basically, whatever you say, it's my sister who challenges you with all her might! But if you don't tell me, I won't be too careful, so be careful. "

Putting his hand on his waist, Flop said, "Hahaha!” He laughed lavishly.

I guess you can understand that, too, from Abel's attitude. ― ― This time, the flop was not added to the chaos frame.

"... even medium-san doesn't have to hang out with me"

"Don't be ridiculous, Milord. I have a goal. We have to do it, we have to do it."

"..... ahh"

A noisy word spilling out of the mouth of a flop, but I know that it is never a noisy idea, and that even this clear flop is suited to irrationality and absurdity that cannot be forgiven.

In this world, the goodness of Flop that Subaru couldn't hear - that's why Subaru trusted him and has been with him to this day.

"My sister, it's the same." My sister and I have the same purpose, the same way we walk. [M] If I abandon you, your wife, and the village chief here, I won't be able to open my chest anymore. "

"-... I'm about to cry. I'm about to fall in love."

"Hahaha, if you say that to a man in that outfit, it'll make you nervous!" I'm just sorry to your wife, that's no good. But let's keep it that way! "

Even that way of swinging was good, and Subaru just felt it.

Perhaps Medium will be willing to follow Flop's words. In other words, one of the members accompanying the Chaos Frame is decided to be medium.

"Lady Tarrita, get along with my sister." Oh my God, if you get along with me, I'm sure you can do well with my sister. "

"Ha, I... ahn, please be careful too..."

"Yeah? That's right. I'll let you do your best with Zikl-san and everyone in Südrak!"

Flop suddenly slapped his chest at Tarita, who was leaning down.

With such a smile on his side, Subaru coughs up a small cough.

"By the way, I..."

"I'm leaving you."

"--Oh"

"Did you think I'd say that?"

Abel adds a bad hobby feint to the Subaru I tried to check.

Even so, it was like I wanted you to take me with you, so Subaru did everything in his power to protect the silence by biting his back teeth.

Such Subaru laughed with his nose, and Abel said, "I'm sorry to hear that."

"You are already one of the negotiating ingredients." As long as it's mandatory to add Yoruna Michigle to our team, we can't leave it alone. ”

"When it's all over, I'll definitely hit you on the side... but I'm the bargaining material?"

"The fall of Guaral is your passion." Not far away, the circumstances will be known. Besides, I'll make you feel that way. "

What?

Unsure of what Abel meant, Subaru's eyes turned black and white.

There is no doubt that the fall of the Citadel City was Subaru's plan, but I don't see the benefit of knowing about it.

Basically, Natsuki Subaru's starting line was underestimated.

"--There are other things besides Abel that can be used. We need to make them think that."

Priscilla was the one who answered Svalbard's question.

Hearing her words, understanding slowly crept into Subaru.

"Of course, it's not just foolishness." In addition to the "people of Shudrak" in the dense forest of Badheim, Zikl Othman, a garrison of the citadel city of Guaralupe, is also an ingredient in the negotiations. But first of all.... "

"I thought I told you... the soldier who contributed to the fall of the city." The strong are revered in the Empire. It's not just about force, it's about wisdom. "

――――

That's why Abel and Priscilla assured me that Natsuki Subaru was worth it.

To be honest, Subaru's evaluation was extremely complicated.

It is highly appreciated and can be said to be itchy.

However, on the other hand, it seems to be an excessive evaluation. In fact, despite this great appreciation, Subaru lost the trust of Lem and tasted the collapse of his feet.

No matter how much the Empire appreciates it, it won't have to weigh it against REM's trust.

Therefore, Subaru's heart was not moved by the evaluation of Abel and the others.

However,

"If I'm useful, I'm good." Use it well. Instead..... "

Instead?

"You must take back the Emperor's seat." So you can get us home safely. "

Svalbard said firmly that he could not give in.

And when he heard it, Abel looked on lightly, and breathed for a long time.

"There's no need to be told." -That's what I'm supposed to do. "

That's what I said.
