--I don't even know why I'm here.

Suddenly the bomb talk, the bomb disposal failed, Subaru's head swallowed by confusion.

A much sharper shock than being exposed to cold water, unexpectedly blinking again and again,

"What, what do you mean?" I don't know why I'm here.... "

"What do you mean, what do you mean?" When I realized it, I was thrown into this lonely island by the sword guy, and the context before and after and the prospects for the future were much bigger and weakened. Well, this is a very pleasant place for me to live, so it's not as troublesome as it seems, but I guess I'll just say it like that. "

――――

"Oh? Are you thinking again?" Well, Bassu likes to think. No, I don't think so, because I don't really like to think about it. I won't make a fool of or interfere with people who think about it, so keep your mouth shut! "

It took Cecilus a long time to shut his mouth. That said, your legs are still clattering while you're closing your mouth, and your vision is noisy as you move around.

I may not have been stupid, but it was more than enough to get in my way.

But Subaru couldn't afford to stick it in. If you're going to burst in anyway, you should really talk about it in a meaningful way.

For example-

"Why do you know that you're called the 'Blue Thunder Light' even though you don't know about the 'Nine God Generals'?" That's strange, isn't it? "

"Oh, the answer to that question is simple. This numbing alias, it's me who thinks nothing else! Vorakia's" Blue Thunder Light "Cecilus Segmund! How about that? It must be a nickname that gives a really vivid and graceful impression! Eventually, I'll make a world where everyone can be blinded by me, the starring actor! It's a sign of such enthusiasm."

"I thought about it myself, my nickname..."

Stretching his chest out, Svalbard replied, dropping his shoulders.

With such a Subaru, Cecilus said, "Who is it? What's the matter?" But I've lost the energy to answer it.

Whether this boy in front of me was a real or fake Cecilus Segmund was settled.

The theory that there are many adults who cannot respect their children is that they do not know the "Nine God Generals", and they have no power to turn their words upside down.

No matter what, I could not follow the statement that a real general did not know [Nine God Generals].

"It's ridiculous not to know you're the general of the Empire..."

It's very impossible to get through such a hole in reason.

So in Svalbard, the possibility that the boy in front of him was a real Cecilus disappeared. He's a pseudo Cecilus, a wolf boy who's just a joke.

Then, a thin thread of hope sprouted in the small bag lane was cut.

If there's only one seed of hope left, it's that false Cecilus was a liar, and maybe the story about the island that was too scary earlier was his lie.

"--You were in a place like this, Segmund."

"Wow!?"

The next moment, Subaru jumps as a man's thick voice bathes his thoughtful back.

Looking back at the entrance of the healing chamber, which was heard, Svalbard's voice, which was neither that of the false Cecilus nor of course that of Tanza sleeping in bed, was even more overlapping.

─ ― The figure standing at the entrance of the healing room, because it was a huge man.

"I-Isn 't that...!"

The man was so tall that his admiration spilled out unexpectedly.

No, not only is it tall, but it is thick vertically and horizontally, and the explanation that the whole body is thick and large fits well. His neck and limbs were as strong as logs, and his black clothes, like the police and military, were so strained that they were about to be cut open.

Irrespective of Subaru's shrinking, I had to look up to get a neck ache.

Lightly over two meters tall, Subaru may be the biggest human he's ever seen in another world. There is a very harsh face on the huge body, and there are too many features such as fangs that stick out even when the mouth is closed, and the skin color is blue.

Still, I haven't explained the most prominent features yet.

The most prominent feature of this is--

"Hey, Gustav!" This morning is a fine feast, too! I think it's a basic gentleman's attitude to pay attention to every aspect of his taste! "

"I don't want to flatter you, but you look as healthy as ever without darkness." It is my strict judgment that your existence should be exhausted in the arena. "

Having said that, the big guy, a person called Gustav, replied with a thick "four-piece" arm in a long breath to the mild false Cecilus' words.

Yes, four arms.

The demon-like big man with a large body wrapped in a mass of muscles had the characteristic of having four arms with two arms from each shoulder. Indeed, I had heard from an old man I knew that the sub-humans called the Multi-Armor Clan had such characteristics.

An acquaintance, grandfather...

"Well... yes, Mr. Wilhelm."

Such a hard time to remember the name of an acquaintance, Subaru.

In spite of Subaru's struggle, False Cecilus laughed at Gustav's words, "No."

"Thank you for your care and pain!" I know what Gustav said! Even if I die, it should be a battlefield. [M] It would be very helpful if the island owner could be more discerning. I'm a man who really has it! "

“Public-private confusion is an obstacle to order. Such folly is unjustifiable."

“Yeah, yeah, I know! Thank you very much for your consideration, Viceroy Gustav!"

Gustav narrowed his rational eyes at the pseudo Cecilus, who was clasping his hands on his dizzy face.

Subtly, the statement "do not confuse public and private" sounded like a fake Cecilus personally to Subaru, but I couldn't help digging into it.

Someone besides the fake Cecilus finally came out to talk to me.

"So, Segmund, your boy."

And Gustav just turned his awareness towards Subaru.

Being overlooked from a tremendous height, just looking at it made my whole body feel intimidated. The four arms together and the fist attached to them are all about the size of a child's head, so if they beat him, Subaru would die.

Unexpectedly, Svalbard swallowed his spit, and beside him, Pseudo Cecilus clapped his hand.

"Yes, I finally woke up." So I was worried about my daughter, so I brought her here. However, it seems that the sleeping girl is not the one you wanted, so there are a lot of mistakes. Parry the shock around it, and let's get down to business! That's what it was all about. "

“Thank you for the explanation, but if he woke up, I would have ordered him to be brought under my roof first. That would have been the condition for my permission to land this boy and girl on the island."

"Was that so?" I'm sorry, I forgot. "

――――

Gustav silently rubbed his fingers between his brows at the false Cecilus who replied softly.

As a result, the man who was much closer to the sky than the Subaru people peered at the ceiling and said to himself, "My job is to be the keeper of order, I don't confuse public and private...".

I don't really know about the relationship with False Cecilus, but I think he's putting us through a lot.

Gustav was a little relieved to know that.

"I wasn't the only one who got swayed by Sessie."

"It's unexpected to swing it around." I think I went somewhere where I wanted to properly explain Basu and meet someone.

"Yeah, that's right, I said too much. There were many stops for explanations, and the person I was allowed to meet was not the person I wanted to meet, and I was told not to go where I wanted to go, so I was dented."

I don't think there is malice in False Cecilus, so I don't have a choice.

That's what Subaru told me, and Pseudo Cecilus pointed his lips at his dissatisfaction. Gustav turned to Subaru again, wondering if he had successfully dealt with his dissatisfaction.

And then--

"Boy, if you're awake, I'll talk to you again."

“I'd be happy if you let me do that. I wanted to hear it from someone else. You're the greatest man on this island."

Hmmm.

Gustav touched his jaw with his right two hands as Subaru spoke carefully.

It was a harsh look, but the way of speaking and appearance was very quiet and calm, there was a sensible light in the eyes, and the impression I had was close to Zikl's head.

In other words, a representative adult who can talk.

As if to support Subaru's expectations, Gustav nodded deeply and heavily,

“My job is Gustav Morello, who was entrusted with the administration of the island by His Majesty Emperor Vincent Vorachia, the seventy-seventh Emperor of the Holy Vorachian Empire. Can you tell me your name and affiliation?"

Politely named himself and confronted Subaru head-on.

He stared lightly at the fact, and Subaru lowered his head with his hand on his chest.

"Ji, thank you for introducing yourself. My name is Natsuki...... Natsuki Schwartz"

I see, Schwartz.

Even under pressure, Subaru called Gustav back.

For a moment, I was worried about whether to use a real name or a pseudonym, and it was a somewhat half-analysed answer, but I think it should be considered good at the moment.

Honestly, I don't know if lying to Gustav is the right or the wrong answer.

But it's not good for Subaru's real name to spread. The False Cecilus is a fake of a single general, so it didn't become a big deal, but I don't know who or where is bright enough for the kingdom.

Anything you can hide should be kept hidden. Even though Cecilus, who had heard the pseudonym of Subaru, was tilting his head with great grace.

“But if Natsuki Schwartz, why would Segmund call you a bassoon?”

“I think Sesshi has Sesshi's reasoning. Do you want to check it out?"

"--No, let's not. Given the duties entrusted to him/her, there is no time spent on futile trials. I'm not a wise person, but I want to be wise."

Shaking his head to the side, Gustav makes a wise decision for Subaru.

It's kind of stupid to think that it's because of the daily deeds of False Cecilus, so let's think that Subaru's daily deeds were good here.

No matter what--

"The name can be answered, and it looks like I'm not feeling well." According to the healer, my health was severely drained, but are you aware of it? "

"I wonder if you're feeling a little tired." But thank you for all your help. "

"One, let's make a correction, Schwartz." It wasn't my job to help you, it was Segmund who was there. My job is only conditional on my acceptance of your offer. "

I-I see.

In response to Gustav's well-organized response, Subaru grew dull.

The way of speaking and the content are not specially close to me, and the tone of voice is cold and emotionless, but it is purely helpful that the explanation is easy to understand.

Compared to False Cecilus, the combination of the amount of remarks and the amount of information is out of step.

Even the question just now seemed to worry me about Subaru's health when he woke up, and if I talked to him at this rate, I might be able to figure it out.

Subaru and Tanza got to the island by mistake.

"Gustav, this girl and I... it's called Tanza, but it's like she's here because of a mistake or something."

“What is a mistake?”

"-! I don't know why. But we're further away... you know the Chaos Frame, right? I was supposed to be in the city!"

According to False Cecilus, this island is far away from the Demon City.

That should help us understand that what happened to Subaru is a state of emergency. Flying from the Demon Capital to this island is not unusual.

"I know it's good to have help and say this, but I can't stay here long." I'm sure your people are looking for us! I'd like to meet you as soon as I can let you know I'm safe. "

Ideally, we should get out of here with Tanza, if we can.

I don't know why Subaru and Tanza are on the island, but I'm sure Yoruna is worried about Tanza. Abel will not be angry if she does anything to please Yoruna, because her goal was to bring her to her side.

Besides, Subaru loved Yoruna.

If that sweet woman is happy, I don't think she's better than that.

"That's why I'm going to be here a second sooner-"

"-That's it. That's it, Schwartz."

The huge palm stopped Subaru trying to raise his voice as he quickly stepped forward. The two right hands that were thrust in front of her face were silenced by it, and Subaru was crammed into the words "Ugh."

With his right hand, Gustav stroked his chin and head with his left hand.

"I understand your point." Approximately, I can say that I have also grasped the circumstances of the placement. On top of that, you have to listen to your full-time job. That's fairness. "

"Fair..."

“Yes, fair, just, rigorous, unbiased, flat criteria… indispensable for building what we call order.”

Subaru frowned at the words he was slowly repeating after being blocked from making a claim.

Fairness and impartiality sound very long when you're in a hurry. But there's nothing you can do against Gustav here, Svalbard nodded anyway.

In response to Subaru's reaction, Gustav closed his eyes and said, "Yes."

"Do you remember what I said earlier about my full-time job? He said it was Segmund who helped you, and he allowed you and her to land on a conditional basis.”

"That's... yes, I remember, but..."

The part where I was helped attracted attention, but the condition didn't make me very smart. But Gustav did say so in a harsh voice to Subaru.

But what are the conditions? The conditions for taking Svalbard and Tanza to the island.

"Schultz, you have good judgment, a knowledge that is not difficult to answer, an education that can use respectful language in your job, a health assessment based on the healer's diagnosis, and the fact that you are not suffering from the self-reported physical condition. Do you have any objections?"

"When I'm told all the time, my eyes turn... but I don't think I have any objections."

"Probably, it's an unconvincing opinion." Is there, is it not, is it just? "

"- I have no objection."

Gustav's gaze did not allow Subaru to answer halfway.

Overwhelmed by this, I looked back at the opponent, and my gaze bounced back with a horrible face like a stone statue that didn't change the color of Gustav's eyes or his expression.

Meanwhile, Gustav was leading the conversation.

That boils down and makes me feel uncomfortable, but I can't come up with a firm countermeasure. As usual, Subaru had no information. I mean, we don't have a choice.

Instead of Subaru,

"See, I told you." Bassou is a good fit for Gustav's eyes. I made it to my schedule, and I have nothing to say, right? "

But the girl hasn't woken up.

"As for that, is there anything you can do to adjust or deceive the Governor General's authority?"

"Yes, I'll start with one less than prescribed, because the girl won't wake up."

That's right, did you snake?!

It was a fake Cecilus to talk to Gustav in the middle of a puzzling Subaru.

I can't see the main part of the conversation, but I can understand that it was talking about Subaru and Tanza, and that Fake Cecilus couldn't carry the story well.

Moreover, I don't think it is the fake Cecilus himself who pays for the failure.

"I'm sorry, Bassu. It looks like I'm the only one who can help." Please do your best. I'm sure I can do it! ”

Wait, wait, wait, wait! It's too creepy! What kind of exchange was that? Gustav! What did you put us on the island for? "

"--Participation in" "Sparka" "

"Sumpa...?"

An unheard word was dropped from a high position and Subaru frowned.

By participating, is it an event or something called "Sparka"? This swordsman has some kind of event going on on a solitary island - I just have a bad feeling about it.

In the first place, Al said that life on the Isle of Swords was hard and painful.

Events there can be scary or painful.

"Wait, Mr. Gustav!" Why should we go to Sparka!? We didn't come to this island ourselves! "

"Prisoners of war, slaves, criminals... The circumstances of landing in Guinnhive vary, but few come to hope." And the main role of the outlaws is to lay the order on the Isle of Lonely Heart and do their best to fulfill their duties as you wish. "

My lord... the Emperor wants it.

"--Transforming this swordsman island into the most meaningful place in the Empire where blood flows."

The biting Subaru's blood was so cold that it was a terribly thirsty declaration.

Gustav felt that his eyes were cold and unshakeable, but it was a mistake. There were more words than words to describe Gustav.

Yes, it's as inorganic and cold as a robot.

Gustav called the stiff Subaru "Schwartz" breathing a breath of change in impression.

And he looked down at Subaru, who was much smaller than he was.

"My lord, call me Emperor." One warning, two warnings, three warnings. "

"... let's..."

"And again, I'll let you know, but I won't allow you to refuse [Sparka]." If you refuse to participate in "Sparka," we'll let the girls follow their own destiny. "

"What's my original destiny..."

"I refuse Segmund's plea and refuse to allow him to land. --In other words, it's just a prey for the flooded demon beast that lives in the lake."

Lightly, Gustav picked out Subaru's future options without any hesitation.

If you refuse, you will die, and the big man will tell the child clearly. Without blood or tears, I want to curse my own bad luck, which is hard even when I'm small.

Isn't it usually more gentle for children?

Or, in the Volakian Empire, where the strong things are great, even if children are killed one after another because they are weak, that makes sense.

"If that's the case, I'll destroy such a country..."

"I don't know my intentions, but I'll forgive the vice." If you seal off any speech, you will be dissatisfied. The bud of great foolishness grows in the seedbed of discontent and in the water of resentment. "

Gustav grabbed Subaru's shoulder, gnawing his teeth and shaking his head loosely.

Caught by a palm that grabbed his head easily, Subaru couldn't resist. I even thought about forcing him to resist and get out of here.

"I won't recommend that way, Bassu." It's probably worse. This kind of feeling is more boring than my old woman mind, but it becomes a strong request. "

"Thank you for expressing your feelings." Fuck you, Sessi. "

"Wow, even though I helped you properly, you'll say terrible things." That said, I don't know how Bassu feels, but she's not angry. "

The fake Cecilus subtly blocks the entrance, robbing Subaru of his last resistance.

In the end, even if the fake Cecilus with whom the enemy allies are not clear were to strike the anger of the situation with dirty words, his reaction was warm and unresponsive.

Anyway, Subaru is invited to participate in an event called "Sparka" that is not a random event.

If you refuse, you will be fed by the fish, and if you say it properly,

"If you prove your credentials, I will take responsibility as Governor General and welcome you as a swordsman."

"...... that's the best, isn't it?"

Even if it works, it becomes a slave, and if it doesn't, it is fed to the fish.

I said there's never been a good thing since I got smaller, but I'll make it right.

--Not a single good thing has happened to me since I came to this Volakia Empire.

"... I hate the Volakia Empire."

Subaru's hateful grudges were as small, quiet, and thin as a sleeping tanza.

And then--

△▼△▼△▼△

― ― It was felt all over the body that the heat was wrapping up the venue.

To be creepy, the number of gazes pouring down is so large that there is almost no hustle and bustle.

Quiet arousal, madness, or an unusual experience where silence can be noisy.

However, Subaru can't afford to get angry or complain about it.

"Shit, shit... it's not a joke, it's the worst...!"

"I'll do it, I'll do it..."

"Shut up! You guys, obey my instructions!" Then you won't have to die! "

It was the three men in the immediate vicinity of Subaru who slashed the silence.

Each was a lizard with rocky skin, a man with many tattoos on his body, and a well-faced young man with long, rusty hair.

Everyone grew up with different faces and different races, but there is only one thing in common.

That's because Subaru is not counted in the head, and there is a tension in his eyes that is life-threatening.

And as it is, even if the birthday is different, the birthday will be the same.

"--Gentlemen, first of all, we have landed on this island." His Highness the Emperor Vincent Volakia in the Imperial Capital would be delighted. His Highness the Emperor has directly entrusted the administration of the Isle of Swords with the honorable test of being the Governor. "

Gustav Morello, the governor of Lone Island Guinnheib, who overlooked the swordfighting ground from a special seat on the high wall, was the one who ruled the entertainment here.

Then, under Gustav's feet, as the passage fence opened to send the fighters to the swordfighting arena, a terrible mutation slowly emerged from the darkness.

The face of a lion with red eyes and four legs like deer with hooves. Twisted horns and fangs, a horribly long tail, and a huge body that even Gustav's giants look small.

The demonic beast that came as a shield while spilling saliva and roar from its mouth - no, this is a terrifying enemy called a gladiator beast.

That's what Subaru and the other three had to face--

― ― Demonstrate your prestige as a strong emperor!

― ― "Sparka" was the examiner of the barbaric examination to become a swordsmith.
