After reading the headlines in the daily paper, everyone who was on the spot shut up.

The Knights of St. Sophia have broken off the Necropolis offensive and, moreover, the imperial government will fully support it, he said.

The laugh of dullness broke the silence.

That was Arte's voice.

Arte continued to regain his liveliness and excellence in his face.

"You can't stop the flow that moved out. The Necropolis offense is a matter of decision. Senior Cleon is all set."

"If we persuade the Creons now, we can call off the Necropolis offense."

I snapped, but when I heard it, Arte floated a mockery colour on her beautiful face.

"It's no use. It says the government will cooperate, right? Do you think you can overturn what the government has decided to do? It's not just the Knights of St. Sophia anymore."

Arte's words may indeed be true.

According to a newspaper article, faces such as the Minister of National Guardianship, Gudin, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army, Ravre, and Prime Minister Strass officially issued a statement welcoming the Knights' execution of the Necropolis offensive.

The Necropolis offensive became a national cause.

It may be to distract the public from the continued loss in the war, but it's a big deal nonetheless.

But necropolis may indeed be worth about that.

Necropolis, the death capital, is the capital of the ancient kingdom that perished two thousand years ago.

The ruins of Necropolis sleep deep underground and, at their deepest depths, they say, are treasures of the art and wealth of the ancient kingdom.

More importantly, the Necropolis is surrounded by rich and diverse minerals, and if it could be attacked, it would not be better for the imperial government, which is undergoing rapid industrialization.

But.

Despite all its advantages, there is a reason why Necropolis was not attacked.

The enemy is simply too strong.

The Necropolis demon clan says that those in the shallow hierarchy of ruins also have as much power as the demon clan chiefs in the deepest depths of the annexed ruins.

In fact, the fact-finding teams dispatched in the past had died before most of them reached the deepest depths of the ruins, including legendary adventurers such as those called heroes.

Not sure if it's even more true, but in the deepest depths, he says, one of the demon kings who destroyed the ancient kingdom is asleep.

In short, challenging such a ruin is that any Knights of St. Sophia is reckless.

If I were you, I wouldn't choose that place as a target of attack.

Adventure is not a life-threatening challenge, but it is important to ensure that we win and achieve enough results.

Cleon lost the girl Shea, who was once a valued companion, in a battle at the ruins.

So you should understand very well that you shouldn't be doing such reckless things.

Though I'm no longer a Knights person, there are still a number of members of the general regiment who used to be my people.

When they think they're in danger, they can't stay calm.

Clarice pointed to the second half of the daily paper.

"There is another problem. According to this article, the Knights of St. Sophia will be gone."

"The Knights of St. Sophia are gone?

"Yes."

I read Clarice's fingertips.

The Knights of St. Sophia merge with several powerful organizations, such as the Basileus Adventurers, the Knights of the Pyramids and the Second Division of the Survey of Imperial Army Sites, to achieve developmental dissolution.

In other words, in the Necropolis offensive, they create a new group of adventurers using the Knights of St. Sophia as their nucleus.

Its name is also the Knights of the Creon Redemption.

As the name suggests, the new captain is the Saint Knight Creon.

It says in the headlines of the newspaper that the Knights of St. Sophia carry out the Necropolis attack on the Dead Capital, but the reality is that the new Creon-led organization carries out the Necropolis attack.

"I can't believe I was doing this without any consultation..."

Until then, the engineer Lylene Remilia, who kept her mouth shut, groaned.

The Knights of St. Sophia, the most powerful group of adventurers in the empire created by me and Sophia and the Creons, will be gone.

That's just me, too, hardened for a while.

What does this mean?

Sophia, who was the captain of the regiment, is gone and the knighthood is weakened.

Maybe it's a measure to rebuild it.

If we incorporate a large number of competent personnel from outside, we can also reinforce the strength of Sofia for what it has lost.

If so, will the Creons now give up the return of the Knights of Virgin Sophia?

At that time, Empress Philia opened the door with momentum and came in.

"Solon! It's a customer!

I got up in a hurry and the other seven took their seats.

And then he puts his hand on his chest and finally greets Philia with a salute.

It was a courtesy to Philia, the Empress.

According to that philia, a government man is coming to the entrance to the mansion.

I jerked Philia off.

"Dear Philia... please don't answer me alone because it's dangerous"

"But there was no Solon or Clarice, so there was nothing I could do. And I'm the only one who seems out of company."

Indeed, all the humans in this mansion, including the maid Clarice, were in this reception room.

That's where more visitors come in.

I asked Clarice to come through.

There were about five visitors, all wearing brown fabrics and, by the way, uniforms with gold lines.

Everyone seems to be from the Urban Gendarmerie, which controls crime all over the city. He said he was rushed by a call from Notaras.

The Urban Gendarmerie is an excellent organization known for its strict discipline.

There was a familiar person in the center of it.

This is Guillain, deputy captain of the Imperial Palace Guard.

He was the one who once opposed me and Philia living in the same room and dueling.

"Long time no see, Solon. Remember Gillan, the former deputy captain of the Imperial Guard?"

"Ex?"

"I was forced to stop the deputy captain from failing in the July party raid."

"I'm sorry about that. So, you moved to the gendarmerie?

"Exactly. You helped me during the July Party raid. [M] Let me thank you again."

Gillan then looked at the three of Arte Carreria Flora and opened her mouth.

I could imagine what Gillan would say.

"Attempted kidnapping of Her Royal Highness and assault on a noble maid are not minor. I'll hold you!

At the same time as that voice, a person from the gendarmerie simultaneously detained the three.

None of the three resist and are handcuffed and taken to the gendarmerie.

Well, Arte can't help being treated as a criminal.

But Flora, crushing with tears, "I don't know," I guess she was just listening to Arte, and I'm a little sorry.

But Arte looked back at me around the entrance.

Arte had a grin of dullness and spare time.

I wonder what that means?

I wonder if Arte still has a plan.

Maybe we shouldn't have handed the Artes over to the gendarmerie.

But it was already too late.

If you run into the gendarmerie on this occasion, this is the criminal.

Gillan was kneeling against the princess Philia and stating her resignation.
