13-1 Ascending PeerageSatou's here In order to escape the predicament, the main character unleashes their hidden ability, that kind of method appears often in tales However, it seeo that well in reality
◇
At the opening day of the Kingdoreat audience hall in order to participate in the [Great Audience Ceremony]
It seems today is the tie, and posts such as cabinet minister are announced
Although it's called Kingdo conference in the opening day
Today it's not only Satou who's going to participate in the [Great Audience Ceremony], Nanashi+ is too
Nanashi+ is only going to appear for about 10that time, Satou cannot not present in the ceremony
It's slightly troublesoe it somehow
The great audience hall we're in is unlike other audience hall I've seen so far that are rectangular shaped, this one is fan-shaped
I wonder if it's like a concert hall or a ceremonial hall?
More than 1000 nobles are lined up in the great audience hall that's slightly dark
Even with this h for it not to feel cramped
The king's throne is on the highest place, behind it there are solass tube objects that look like neon tubes that are extended to the ceiling
And then, once the in to be clad in light
”His Majesty the King, entering”
The high-ranking official working as the host announces that the king is entering, and then when the king sits on his throne, the objects shi+ne, while the object's unseen orchestra starts playing a solemn tune
The play is probably for enhancing the king's authority
--Now then, since the surrounding's line of sights have gathered on the throne, I'll change to Nanashi+
Nextroom
Through ement], that I haven't been able to use until now
For some reason, I've become able to use this after the disturbance from before was over
If we talk about the reason, I can only think two things, either it's because I defeated 'Gods' or because I wore the Divine Sword's power
Unfortunately, [Unit Creation] is still unusable
With this [Unit Arrangeround
Moreover, it's without using ic power
Truly a cheat ability
Right now, the places recognized as hoon Valley, Muno City, Boruenan Countryside, Labyrinth City, Duchy Capital, and Royal Capital
Now then, the cha from the other side of the door
I'll think of this area with [Unit Arrangement]
Further, the place where I should have been was arranged with Satou's doll at the saed the positions with [Unit Arrangement]
The inside of this Satou doll is an autouise suit I've made in the [Mansion of Ivy] in the Labyrinth City before
It can't hold a conversation nor fight, but its gesture traces are perfect so there's no problem as a short-time substitute
It's specialized in cauish it as a doll fro as they don't have Arisa's level of [Persona Appraisal]
I've confir Kuro doll with an appraiser advisor contracted by Echigoya firm
Now then, I, who have changed into golden aruided by the chareat audience hall
”Introducing, the hero who saved our kingdom from crisis--Hero Nanashi+”
While being lighted by spotlight fro
Since I've returned holy sword Claiomh Solais to Mito, I'm armed with the fake made from Orichalcum metal
The nobles' line of sights concentrate on me
I stand before the king and with my back on the nobles, I take off my helmet and kneel
I've used a newly made white mask for the face, but the nobles shouldn't have seen it
”Hero Nanashi+, the people of our kingdo your achieverant you the house nae of dukedom”
”I respectfully receive”
The king looks like he has a bit of a hard time, but he can't exactly act the way he usually does in front of other nobles
Before long, the king's body is wrapped in white phosphoresce
”■■ Conferring Peerage”
I' chants the spell
>title [Duke of shi+ga Kingdom] Acquired
>Rank [noble (Duke)] Acquired
I update the status in the Exchange colue
I put the golden helain and turn back toward the nobles
Heroicas the illumination on the back darken as it has been prepared in advance
I take out the i off the blue light toward the great audience hall
”My name is Nanashi+ The sword that defeats deht against powerful deo toward that land and destroy the demon--”
The speech is in accordance to shi+ga Kingdo out of my owne
Finishi+ng the five minutes speech, hero Nanashi+ will now leave this place
”--Then, I will go to the land where I'm needed”
I float sloith Sky Drive toward the top of the great audience hall
After rising enough, Iin the royal castle's courtyard to appear in the room
Noise appear from the nobles who are surprised
”Ooh, is that the Jules Verne?”
”The saa Empire hero's shi+p huh!”
I heard such voices from the nobles
The first voice was of Baron Muno
The outer shell of my airshi+p is made in Boruenan just like the hero's shi+p, so it's only natural
While floating, I board the airshi+p, and after a short pause, I teleport together with the airshi+p to the royal castle's courtyard using [Unit Arrangement]
Now then, Nanashi+'s turn is over
I start the airshi+p's auto-pilot, and o toward the duchy capital area after flying a lap around the royal capital
I slow its speed to be only as fast as a horse's, and instruct the autoolden armors to wave their hands toward the royal capital's people while standing in the opened observatory room at the bow
With this, people who think that we are the same people as them should be decreased now
After all, the royal capital's people witness hero Nanashi+ and the golden knights parading around while we are participating in the ceremony
Once I've finished the series of preparation, I use [Unit Arrangereat audience hall Of course, I've changed back the Exchange column and my clothes
I would have pushed Nanashi+'s role to Mito if she were in the royal capital, but it seeon

”Lord Leon Muno I elevate you to the rank of Earldom”
”I respectfully accept”
Continuing the new year cere ceremony
After an exchange in shi+ga Kingdo the Royal Scepter chants a spell
”■■ Convert Peerage”
I've never heard that command word before
When the king finishes chanting, ring of light appear around Baron Muno and the king, then infinite symbol-like shapes are formed on the outer circumference
The ring of light illu for a while
Before long the ring of light is disappearing to the sky and the ground
And then, Baron Muno's title and rank have been changed to [Earl] when the light subsides
Since the cereets back to his seat
There's no applause or cheer, I wonder if that's the rule Though it's not like it's because of it, the orchestra starts to play a sole tune
Next, the eldest son of old Earl Lesseu undergoes the [Succession to Peerage] ceremony and becomes the new Earl Lesseu
”Chevalier Satou Pendragon, to be present”
Since I got called by the facilitator official, I stand up from my seat
I thought that they were going to call it in turn by the ranking, but I got called earlier than Jeril who holds Baronet rank
I kneel in front of the king while having a slight unpleasant premonition
”I elevate Chevalier Satou Pendragon to the rank of viscountcy”
Wait
