Volume 6 Intermission 6 (2/2)

--Muno?

The same territory where nobles who've announced their candidacy to beco the lord of the [Cursed Territory]?

However, this is a royal order I do not have the right to refuse

The majesty has talked about the City Core earlier probably because he has maximum faith in me

Right now, the thing I can do is to solemnly lower my head and answer, [Your will]

◇

”Are you nervous?”

An old lady with ly

”No, head miko-sama I, I am okay”

”You don't have to force yourself Even forin front of this door is ”

She probably said that to reassure me

Latenion head e

I take a deep breath, and together with the head round sanctuary on the Muno city where the City Core is

The people who descend the spiral stairs to the underground sanctuary are only the head miko and me

Originally, this passage is only to be used by the lord, but for the sake of exorcising the curse that the [Undead King] has left, I'm accompanied by the head miko this time

I feel more sick each time I step down the stair

It seems that many nobles die the moment they step on this stair

It's probably safe this time because I'm with a head miko who holds the title [Saintess]

I continue following headnauseous

In front of the sanctuary, the head

”Leon, looks like it's the limit soon”

”I understand I'o alone from here”

I step into the sanctuary while holding my consciousness

--My vision is shaking

Bam, I hear the sound offrom other's, I look up

A se in front of my eyes

『O intruder I a] Zen--Its shadow O pure person, show me that you deserve to become the lord』

”Lord is--”

I faint in the oleicians that his majesty has deployed

I tried challenging it for three tiht whenever I had just arrived to the sanctuary

I wasn't able to grasp the City Core, but forto the sanctuary, I was appointed to be the lord of this land

Since I'ic power of The Source toin the territory, and I' this territory

I was only able to become the true lord after 16 years

I had to wait until a merchant who had just become an adult uncovered the plot of the demon by himself, and even saved the territory from the swarms of undead monsters

◇

I want to grant honorary knight to Satou-kun for his achievements, but since I don't have the City Core, I don't have any way to confer peerage to him

I could ask Nindono to write a letter of recoock, but I'd like to reward him with my own hands

I proceed to the sanctuary where the City Core sleeps after 16 years, and over there I notice that the curse that has always been there is gone

I don't know if the caster has died, or if the silver masked hero who defeats the demon has dissolved it

I walk to the front of the City Core, and a voice that's neither reets me

『Welcome, qualified person Do you hope to become the lord of this land?』

This is probably words from the will of the City Core itself

I answer clearly

「I do」

『The registration is complete I serve lord Leon Muno from now on』

Lights separate froer, the other flies beneath me

When I concentrate on the ring that I've received, things that could be done with City Core co by stealing the , I do ritual rant him rank too

”■■■■ Weather Control War”

『Executing Coe temperature of the territory will raise by 15°C for the next few days』

I don't knocold, the people who die from it would probably decrease too

Either way, there's not enoughmore than this

On the nextthe City Core without any problem

I go to the balcony in the early , and is surprised at the warmth

Usually, ed into the warht

I'ht warm

--It's excessively powerful

The City Core brings power beyond human to a person

I vow to use this power for the sake of people without drowning on it
