Visiting the Workshop
The appearance of a devil hy I needed to go there
That incident caused a ement Even so, it was just recently that a devil appeared and was subjugated Right now, the upperthe appearance of a new devil would cause utter chaos
Even after the search party was mobilized, they weren’t able to find Schtrom in the end, despite the Security Office and the Military Affairs having gone full force
As a result, they judged that Schtrodom, and the announcement was temporarily put off
Because this announcement was not made public, the problem was considered resolved for a short period of ti they could withheld this inforers associated with the unknown
And as for the House of Ritzburg, since Schtro, they were not charged of any crimes, and were treated as victims instead However, because it was the truth that his son did cause an uproar, the head of the Ritzburg house had decided to resign from his post as the Vice Minister of the Finance Bureau
Since the real reason could not be published, they announced that because of the death of his son, his as suffering fro to their territory in order to recover
Although some people, who didn’t know the real circu irresponsible, the upper ement who knew the real reason were sy still had two ree as an adult, they were spared fros
In the end, Schtrodom branded him as a wanted criminal
“Hey, Gus”
“What is it?”
“What do you think Schtrom’s real purpose is?”
Because of the riot that happened in the Security Office, the academy was closed for today
In the end, we couldn’t go to Bean’s Workshop yesterday By the time the interview conducted by the Military Affairs had ended, the day had already fallen And so before we separated yesterday, we decided that ould visit the next day
However, because of some circumstances, Tony was unable to make it today In the end, it was the usual people who ended up heading towards the workshop And, of course, Gus had naturally arrived atDoes a Prince really have that much free time?
“Who knows? However, e do know is that he has been experih we’re not exactly sure, we can consider itto do with that It’s too difficult to narrow it down”
“You’re right…”
Although we don’t knohat his real purpose is, there are too many factors to consider
Was he ordered by the Empire to increase the amount of devils? World domination? Or did he wish the destruction of the human race?
“Well, since I don’t know about it, it can’t be helped”
“In that case, it’s fine to leave it to the adults to figure out After all, we have professional and talented investigators such as Orth”
“Yeah, Orth-san was really cool Wasn’t yesterday’s event the result of Orth-san’s investigation?”
“Well, he’s a particularly special existence Every year, in teration, he’s always been number one”
“Then, we should leave such investigations to adults and behave like students of the academy like we are”
However, as long as we’re directly involved, it’s noret to the point where ould start our own investigation It was unlikely for the professional investigators to seek cooperation from a student of the academy even if he was the one who had subdued the devil
Although we are aware of the situation and were at the scene when it all began, they are not allowed to tell us the current progress of the investigation
Or rather, when I got hoot into trouble again! You really need to stop it!” Even though it wasn’t ation, I cannot ih I want to find out about Schtro so scary!
“shi+n, isn’t it about ti?”
“Ah, it’s already that time?”
Once we gathered at Sicily’s house, ould head towards Bean’s Workshop Since we got together in the o to Olivia’s house for lunch
“Then, we’ll be going now I don’t need any lunch”
” “Please have a nice day” ” [Said by the people in shi+n’s house]
After waving at the servants, I went through the Gate with Gus and the others When we arrived at the roo
“Not matter how I look at it, the servants in shi+n-dono’s house are all very talented”
“Haaa~… Those people, were gathered through public advertisement, and since the number of applicants ay too many, it seeht through it successfully, were the ones ere selected…”
“…I see So it’s a dream team of servants”
“Dream team, you say…”
“What happened?”
Our voices could probably be heard from the other side of the door, and before we stepped outside, Sicily had already knocked on the door
“No, I was just saying that the servants in shi+n-dono’s house are a…”
“Ah, they certainly are Before you know it, they will be right by your side and casually follow you”
“It seeh a servants’ battle, a dream team of servants”
“So that’s why they’re called dream team…”
A lot of nobles have high praises for our servants It would be best if I didn’t regard it as nor used to it
“That is a matter of course The Head Maid in shi+n’s house, Marika, used to be a er, I was taken care of her The Butler, Steve, used to be part of Hauge Chaht-hand atekeeper, he is the best pupil of Doh I knew of those guys, I was still really surprised when I saw that they had all gathered in one house”
Eh? Is that how it is? To actually have those aather at our house… one can really see how popular grandpa and grandma are
“And also, the head chef, Correll, used to be the Master chef at a famous restaurant”
“Correll-san’s cooking is really delicious”
“I wonder if you’ll be alright after eating all of those foods Today we’ll be going to Olivia’s house, which is also a fae, okay?”
“There’s no way I’ll say anything strange!”
Maria suddenly said impolite words to me
I’m really concerned at how everyone really looks at me!
“I heard you’re going to Bean’s Workshop and Stone Kiln Pavilion today?”
“Ah, it’s a good place”
It’s Cecil-san and Irene-san Probably because it’s a holiday today, the clothes I’h However, Cecil-san looks as cool as always And also, Irene-san, she doesn’t look like she’s given birth to Sicily and her two older sisters and older brother
“Everything in Stone Kiln Pavilion is delicious, but since you’re going during lunch tihtly toasted, and the fragrant of the cheese on top of the fatty tuna… the taste is unrivaled”
“Sicily, since you’re going to Bean’s Workshop, can you take this order for s I want to ask And as for lunch in Stone Kiln Pavilion, pasta is also good”
“It’s the sandwich”
“It has to be pasta”
Ah, a spark has ignited between the husband and wife! Do so, Sicily!
“Well then everyone, let’s be off”
Don’t tell ency escape!?
“O-okay Sicily, is it okay if we leave them alone?”
“It’s all good Since they’ll reconcile before I know it, and they’ll have this really sweet atmosphere”
So that’s how it so I’h they already have four children, they’re still lovey-dovey
“Then, let’s get going”
And so, we left Sicily’s house and headed towards Bean’s Workshop While on the way, Gus started speaking
“For now, even though Father has declared that you will not be used for either political or Military Affairs, shi+n, Schtrom will still most likely aim for you And so, when you said you wanted new equipment, I was relieved”
“However, I already said I won’t have enough money for it”
“Ithe funds”
“Hey, is that really okay?”
“shi+n, although I’m most sorry about this, but this tiht even involve the fate of ht with Schtroh there’s a possibility that Merlin-dono can as well, that is just a possibility In case of eht only be able to rely on you”
“The fate of mankind…”
Certainly, itof the possibility earlier Although we don’t know Schtrom’s real purpose, he admitted that Cart was just an experiment That also means he conducted an experiment that transformed humans into devils
And that experiment had been a success
Which e if there’s a sudden increase of devils In fact, that ht actually be his objective The problem is what he’ll do afterwards
“Really… There’s no end to the trouble he could cause”
“Indeed”
“The fate of …”
“I guess the threat we feel is coozaru…”
“Well, it is a fact that the mass production of artificial devils isn’taboutother people”
“Regarding that, we’ve already taken some precautions”
“Are you talking about the wanted poster?”
“Right, and the reason for it is because of ‘National Treason’ But it’s not like it’s a false accusation”
Indeed, the mass production of devils… is a threat to the entire world, it certainly isn’t false accusation
“In addition, we can easily recognize that guy’s appearance, he has to wear eye-patches in order to hide his red eyes”
I see, with this, it is unlikely for Schtrodom
“Although I said that, he’s still a devil after all We can’t be careless…”
“Well, he has been fought off just recently, so in thethat time, we should make various preparations”
This is a good chance to level up the research society!
“…Did you ?”
“Just a ot some chills…”
“shi+n-kun wasface?”
“This is…”
“I have a bad feeling about this degozaru”
What the hell The world is approaching a crisis, it’s fine to have everyone level up just a little However, this is a secret for now
“He?”
“…I guess that …”
How did they know!?
“N-no way, I’?”
