Volume 15 Chapter 18 (1/2)
15-18 IntermissionSatou's here I've never been able to match a quick-witted person There really are people who e from only one part”
◇
”M-Master! Y-you won't secretly go home will you?”
”Yea, of course”
Arisa tightly grasped my hand and asked, I replied her immediately
”Even if I were to go back to htsee the earth when that happened”
I'hted to see Tokyo's skyscrapers and the subculture-overflowing Akiharaba
”Y-you will, won't you”
”Moreover, even though I know the coordinates thanks to Hayato and the letters, it's not like I can visit there with the advanced teleport ic immediately”
I tried to calculate it and it seeraic power contained in a divine gift holy sword
Apparently, the distance betorlds is way too far
Looks like it's difficult if it's not with Yuriko of Rudom's 『Power that Connects Worlds』 and God Parion's Hero su, unique skills--that is, God's power
I have a feeling that ement can do it, but unfortunately that's not possible since there is no base point in Hayato's world
If I knew that this would happen, I would have asked hihouse and build it there
I've got some tricks up ic power needed, so I'll be seriously going to research it once things have cala Empire
I have a proa Empire after all
◇
”Viscount Satou Please coa Empire I will fulfill the promise then”
”Yes, I'll be asking your help once I get back frodom”
We're saying goodbyes to the hero's followers in front of the sub-dimensional shi+p Jules Verne
Come to think of it, the other hero's followers besides Princess Maryest have also stopped calling on
Did I do so the celebration the day before yesterday and the re of the hero yesterday?
”Satou-saood liquor okay”
”Yes, if I come across one that'll suit Loreiysama's taste, definitely”
I made such a promise with Miss Loreiya
”Fifi and I will go on a journey to ia Edom 'kay”
”Un, have a ht that there would be someone else besides Hayato and Rusus that could ainst the demon lord”
Rusus and Fifi grinned and told me that
I'll ask Ta partners when that time comes
”Satou, if you like to tour places, you should go to the earkin sanctuary in Saga Empire It's possible for earkin toSatou”
Lady Wiyaryi appeared in front of me next
I do have some interests in earkin but since it looks like I'll be treated like a breeding horse, I'
”See you Satou I'll be visiting shi+ga Kingdoent”
”No no, please visit us normally We'll welcome you”
Seina the scoutremark
”Satou-dono, ish to express our gratitude for your cooperation A letter froa Kingdoard to medal confer aside the ennoble with us, so I'll be happy if you receive it”
And lastly, secretary Nono did a business-like report
For so] part, so Arisa's and Mia's, the inable fortress combo, eyebroere raised
It was a co, I'd love to plea for my innocence
After seeing off the silver shi+p disappeared into the di shi+p left the Weasel Empire
And then five days later, I visited Dejima Island
As Kuro this time
◇
”I aratitude for this chance to meet your excellency crown prince”
This place is the audience hall of the ad in Dejima Island
The slender weaselkin crown prince is sitting on the throne in front of me
”Level 50 huh Your level is low for a hero's attendant”
”Please excuse otiation”
I lightly brushed off the crown prince's provocation
Originally, I had no plan toto make a courtesy visit as Satou
Then why a the weaselkinbetween h the crown prince, so I've to meet him once at least
”--Science”
The crown prince muttered
”He even a bit huh Do you know that anyone leaving the eo memory deletion?”
”Meic?”
”Nah, it's a Unique Skill by the purple hair fellows”
Purple hair--reincarnated people like Arisa huh
”And?”
”There's no ht? I'll help you sh the place to prevent the memory deletion if you help me”
This dealing isn't particularly needed since I can get out instantly with Unit Arrangement, but I' this
”Let me hear your request”
”Dejia Kingdom to back us”
Independence huh--however
”There is no doht? If the empire attacked, it'd be destroyed before reinforcedom came”
”That worry is needless The eet destroyed ourselves by proxy when that happens, we're gaining independence The parishes on the outer edges of the e behind the scenes too, but there is no probleuys are all pious believers”
It appears that the crown prince is aware that the Weasel Earner the Gods' wrath
Looks like he wants shi+ga Kingdoees to flee when Dejima Island becomes uninhabitable
”You don't think that they will avoid destruction?”
”The e that the Gods' intervention is included in his plan”
The crown prince repliedout
”Does the emperor have the mean to oppose the Gods?”
”I asked hihed it out without answering back”
The crown prince looks displeased, but then his expression see and he opens his mouth
”That reantly, 『It is so that anyone knows, therefore no one arrives at the answer』 I don't want to show off a reckless ree, but I'll tell you that one thing at least”
”I see, thank you for your kindness”
For soh I thanked him honestly
”Show that gratitude with acts instead”
”The ht come sooner than Weasel Empire's ruin you know?”
I have no intention to intervene in a war between Weasel Empire and Dejima Island's independence
”If so to be this head This is so that needs to be done to preserve weaselkin blood and cultures”
”Very well, I will talk to shi+ga King about it”
After I said that, the crown prince as bending his body forwards lets hily
”Well then Hero Nanashi+, I will be waiting for good news”
”You're mistaken, I'm--”
”H to pretend to be a subordinate, don't give an immediate answer to a matter that exceeds your authority”
Oops, I didn't put too ht on that part
◇
Now then, about the , but unexpectedly, he easily agreed to it even before Hikaru could support me
Of course it's not unconditional
We asked them to stop the production and research of forbidden medicines like the [Reborn Seed] used in the terror activities at shi+ga Kingdoe nobles who don't like demi-humans
At first we used pigeon carriers to fly about both countries, but since it was troublesootiate directly
”Then let use enter the 『Yamato Treaty』 here”
Thus, one ained Independence, and the treaty for shi+ga Kingdom to be the backer was enacted
During that period, a thank you letter and a Eon who participated in the deation arrived, and the people in the royal castle were in uproar, but since as Satou hiet involved in the uproar
I pray that it'll be reduced into a lull before Satou arrives in shi+ga Kingdom in half a month time
Hikaru is attending every uard, so I can go far away at peace
The destination is--
◇
”Satou-kun, is that Saga Empire's old capital!”
”Yes, that's right”
I'a Empire with Earl Muno
The ones traveling with me this time are Earl Muno, Lady Karina, Lady Soruna, and Lady Soruna's fiancee who has just been elevated to peerage recently, Honorary Chevalier Hauto, and also Tama and Pochi whom are Earl Muno's favorites
The next Earl Muno, Orion-kun was also eager to go, but Consul Nina stopped hiood for both the earl and the next earl to leave the country at once, so he tearfully gave it up
I'll buy him some souvenirs in the old capital
In addition, I also invited Lady Ringrande and Sera whom I accidentally met, but she curtly declined
Looks like it'll be a while before they can reconcile
Further, the hero suic circle is not located in the current capital, but this old capital that's governed by a duke
Besides our airshi+p, there are three large airshi+ps anchored in the airport of the old capital
The nudom's Duchy Capital's but less than the Royal Capital's, the temperature is low all year round so there's a lot of people wearing war
Many are black haired, and I see japanese-like flat faces here and there
”It's slightly chilly isn't it”
”Soruna, you should put this on”
”Thank you, Hauto”
Lady Karina is enviously looking that exchange between Lady Soruna and Hauto
Lady Karina's clothes are equipped with all-weather air conditioner, so she has no need of a jacket in this degree of coldness
”Cold~?”
”Thisnanodesu”
”Taainst cold”
Earl Muno praised Ta in cold
”Earl-sama, please wear this coat”
”Ah, Satou-kun, thank you”
I saw Lady Karina biting her finger in frustration in the corner of my view
What are you doing getting jealous of your own father
”Satou, have I kept you waiting?”
”Not at all, we've just arrived just now”
We got on a luxurious carriage after Princess Maryest's who ca toward the [Hero's Hill] at the old capital's outskirts
The other hero's followers are in great demands to attend parties with the nobles in the imperial capital
There's a building ood views
It looks like a Greek historic te and no wall
”OOOOOOOOO! S-so this is the sacred place where heroes-saenerations!”
”Y-yes, that's right”
Princess Maryest was taken aback by Earl Muno's high tension
