2178 On the eve of the War, its 3 ~ Fukasagi Palace's Sizzle ③ ~

"Captain Blackhawk 2, this is Louis Nightroot-Highlander.Thank you for your honor. "

"I'm Lexus, second lieutenant, familiar to me.I don't know how nobles behave, so please forgive me for being rude. "

"I am Supreme Bishop Miriazar. Make yourself at home."

When Miriazar, Louis and Lexus arrive at the table, Louis cuts them out without having time to serve tea.

"Last night, I heard a sudden voice at a party, but thank you for listening quickly."

"Hmm, the entrant to the parade game has every right to do so.Originally, everyone in the sky tournament had the right to do so, but I was only allowed to be in the top position in terms of security. Forgive me. "

"No, if that's what this is all about."

"What do you mean?"

The words twitched and Miriazar's eyebrows moved.And as the gaze moves towards Lexus, a tense feeling fills the scene.The tension felt as if the water level of the tank had suddenly risen dropped while counting to 10.

"... it doesn't sound like an assassination.You don't seem to have hesitant feelings. "

"Well, if you're willing, you're aiming for the moment you get to your seat, but I don't think so. It's not my pleasure."

"Of course not. How can a saint be an assassin of a human swordsman?"

Is a saint a militant monster?

Louis will not blame Lexus for his unspeakable words.I suppose it's because I had the same feelings.

Miriazar briefly described Arnelia's story and intentions, including her identity.Lexus was listening to the story, but Louis seemed convinced to some extent.

"... I see. I just want to ask you one question before I tell you the requirements for eagles."

"Call me."

"What are you going to do with Romansland?Are you going to destroy it, or do you want to become aware of a peaceful relationship? "

Miriazar answered the question immediately.

"Honestly, Romansland doesn't matter.What matters to me is not the country, but how the people who live there live and die.It is merely a constituent unit of the Community, such as a country.It doesn't matter if there is no country other than Arnelia, or if there is a united empire. "

So, if you're blind, you're going to destroy it?

"It's not so tyrannical.I will not destroy it because I am not happy with it, but I will crush it if it threatens the peace that has been achieved through hundreds of years of effort.I'm still working on it, but... "

"What?"

"I have no idea how much caramel contamination is eroding.I thought the hub was mostly his servant, but as far as the Knights of Romansland visited this time, there seemed to be few direct signs of Karamity.His abilities take over people, but not everyone.I don't know how that works.I was going to crush it at first, but I was thinking about what to do.It is also true that Romansland has as many good samurai as your house.It's a pity to lose everything, and as I said before, I don't have the ruthlessness to be so brutal. "

"I see... and did you know about walruses?"

Louis had given his first and last name from the beginning, but it goes without saying that Miriazar was aware of it.

"I know the story of the first generation of ice blades.I didn't share the battlefield, but Romansland has a good magical sword user.The ice attributes make it easier and quicker to fight. "

"You look just like my sister. I wonder if my ancestors will return."

"Shut up, you."

Louis' elbow hits Lexus' dove tail and Lexus is agonized.Miriazar looked at the interaction and smiled and laid down tea.

"Now, do I have enough credit for you - or Blackhawk?"

"Commander Valsace told me to find out for myself - and I don't think I can trust you, either, because Alphilis is welcoming me.Either way, you'll have to trust me. "

"What do you mean?"

"I know the location of the largest factory in Romansland.We've also explored black magician bases and factories, but given the scale, we haven't found anything bigger, probably the biggest of our enemies.With the guidance of the eagle, it could be destroyed. "

And Miriazaar nodded to one another, when he saw Miranda and Sadako.

"--Is it a mountain range adjacent to the Romansland Castle?"

"Did you know?"

"I imagined.The Orc army that is now threatening the Northern Commercial Union was kept there, right? "

"Sure, but I've never stepped in before."

"There is no justification for marching Arnelia within Romansland.And even if they marched, it was undetermined whether they could destroy them.Isn't that a labyrinth? Probably for the royal escape. "

"As you guessed"

Louis' words were predictable, but Miriazar didn't understand them.

"You think you know what's inside?"

"The Romansland royal escape route is a big labyrinth that takes a whole day, even if you don't miss a break.The Highlanders were given a map of one third of the escape routes, but about half of them were in charge of walruses.

We've been working with this Lexus and his colleagues for almost a year to fill in the rest of the map. "

"If Blackhawk's activities have not been noticeable lately, have you done such a thing... Valsace's eyes are still slightly different from ordinary people's."

"Because I am more like a beast than a beast.He looks at the world from a different angle than ordinary people. Probably Alfilis too. "

Louis murmuring the words seemed a little fun, and Miriazar was in love with Louis for the first time.I thought I could trust what she said.

"Then I will appoint you to be my guide.Crush the factory and stop the grief of Romansland. "

"Just promise me one thing. Don't just use that path to invade Romansland.Though abandoned, the family is still in Romansland.What kind of slander would the clan suffer if they found out about it? "

"I can't promise. But I will not destroy the righteous.Then why don't we just protect the Highlanders? "

"That's not necessary.They seriously believe that it is our mission to cut off our necks if necessary.If you think it's good for Romansland, you can help Arnelia.If there are any weaklings at the military gate like Karamiti, the eagles will slash themselves and throw them away.I want you to know that my behavior is not selfish. "

Well, for what?

"To defend the will that Romansland cherished more than the founding of the nation.And to cast shadows upon the continent, to cut off the wicked. "

In response to Louis' firm resolve, Miriazar wrote to deliver it to Valsace.Valsas will also regain the attitude he could not decisively determine with this.You won't hesitate to wave your sword with Arnelia.

Once decided, Valsas exerts many times more power.I would hunt down the black sorcerer and stick a sword in his neck.

When I left Arnelia, Lexus talked to Louis slightly less interesting.

Hey, you were serious about that shit, weren't you?

"The best is from the samurai.And if the peace of the continent is threatened, is it not other human resources? "

"Other HR, for me.I don't care if all humans die. "

"I'm so sick of it.Or is it a desire to destroy? I didn't know it was debris. "

"I'll be fine if you're alive.If I'm going to die, I want to be the last two. "

Lexus took it very seriously, but Louis flushed the words.

"You and the last two?I don't want to think about it, I'm scared. "

"Ah, is that what you're saying? What can I do to express my love!?"

"Show it in another way."

"Then I promise. In any desperate situation, I will never leave you alone and I will keep swinging my sword until I destroy the enemy in front of me."

"I don't think I can do it.You don't seem to have that kind of guts. "

What would you do if you could?

When Lexus talked well, Louis laughed and replied that he thought it was a joke.

"I'll keep your bed for three days and three nights.If you can, do what you want. "

"... eh, really? Is that really true?"

"You know I hate jokes, right?"

"... uhhh! I got the word!!Remember, Seung-san!? "

"Well, if I despair, I'll be short of over a thousand enemies... are you listening to him?"

Suddenly he saw Lexus start running horses on the street, and Louis slowly followed the horses.
