Chapter 138

“Mu, mu, what nonsense… … .”

“You don’t have to worry. In the end, it will be what Your Highness wants. It’s just the process.”

I’ve been thinking hard too.

But what? A happy ending that has never been made even in a game where you only need to flick your fingers.

You can’t be optimistic that you can make it in a normal way.

‘A great disaster is coming soon.’

‘What a disaster.’

‘The beginning is Riden’s abyss. A hole is opened with a huge explosion, and it is called a dungeon.’

‘What do you mean by beginning?’

‘With a little time lag, the Whirlwind Archipelago is also flooded with monsters. In addition, the frequency of external air strikes, excluding the northern neutral zone, will be shortened.’

This is a conversation I had with Coltman during my week in Aindaroch.

Interestingly, both Riden’s Abyss and Whirlwind Islands are far from the Empire.

The balance is not adjusted from here on out. Yes, it is probably structurally impossible to clear.

In a situation where it is difficult to guarantee victory even if all countries gather their strength to block it.

At first glance, the news was that it was someone else’s business, so the empire didn’t want to get involved.

Without support, Liden and other countries will be helplessly destroyed by the huge army of monsters that rush in like a wave, and Rongrult will perish without lasting half a year. It’s a bad ending.

precondition.

The power of the empire, which has no immediate use, must be completely drained abroad.

No matter how much the emperor is following my words, there is at least one thing. Anything is good. Let’s assume that all troops were supported by roasting, boiling, or frying.

If this prerequisite is met, all troops are drained and a coup d’état takes place in the empty empire.

The power of the first prince, Tein von Rongrth, murdered the emperor and forcibly installed the throne of the crown prince.

From there, Ai-nim is being targeted in earnest.

It’s not Tania and Vector’s stupid assassination plot, but a ‘real threat’ that can’t be dealt with with just one or two attendants.

How can the event go well, stop the abyss, archipelago, and outside monsters, organize a coup, and protect the child?

The power of the first prince, Tane, is actually about 30% of the empire.

The continuous war has devastated both the inside and outside of the continent. Even if the forces of the first prince participated in the coup, it is impossible to purify them all at once.

However, Ainim, enraged by Gawil’s death, declares that they will eradicate every single drop of blood.

By then, both Tania and Vector would notice and give up their right to succeed. A wind of blood blows in the imperial family.

Suspicion Dark Ghost (疑心暗鬼).

Unstoppable anger pierces Ainim’s reason. No matter how genius you are, there is no way.

In the end, the imperial palace is turned into a sea of fire by a child who has gone mad, and the 15th episode.

You will encounter the second princess, Ainim von Rongrt, as the final boss.

‘Dad, can you think of a way to stop this?’

‘… … it’s a disaster Do you mean to block the waves with both hands?’

‘That’s right.’

how do you solve it?

It is impossible to control the movement of monsters, so it can be said that it is best to prevent a coup first.

Is it possible to prevent it in advance?

I visited him several times, but Thane refused to even talk to me. They may or may not have plans to expose them right away. Some of the guardian wizards who were moving to the Whirlwind Islands returned and raided the imperial castle.

Then catch and kill the ringleader?

Behind the forces of the first prince is the court wizard. Neither Derek, who often appears, nor Kernya, who is dispatched to Credia and only appears by name, but the last one. It would be impossible even to mobilize Derek.

Is it possible to suppress it after it has occurred?

I don’t know how many troops to withdraw. After deploying enough forces to subdue them, a huge problem arises in resolving the monster, which was the original purpose.

Actually, it’s a fundamental problem. No matter how many lasers there are, no matter how many wizards there are. I can’t tell.

‘First of all, both sides start with 1 million and reduce it… … .’

from when you first set it up.

Because the numbers were wrong.

The number of monsters that appeared in the eighth episode, ‘Crisis at the Northern Wall’, was 100,000.

“I will see you again soon.”

“I-if I say this… … !”

“I’ll pretty much believe it. Just five months ago, I risked my life to cross the barrier. Don’t listen to Marquis Tippole for nothing and stay still.”

She walked out of the garden with a leisurely gait, but Tania was speechless.

Pain is doubled when shared.

It’s like giving back what you’ve received.

“What about your sister? Have you talked?”

As I came out alone, I ran into Ai-nim who was heading this way. I answered casually.

“It couldn’t be solved.”

“I thought so.”

The boy lowered his head and sighed. It is difficult to meet and talk properly.

“If my sister had decided and tried to bully me, I would have been much more tired.”

“I think you care a lot for Your Highness.”

“yes? Not quite like that. I’ve done a lot of troublesome things since the old days. I figured it out.”

“Then it would be even better.”

It seems that the child does not know.

It seems that the dukes, which became increasingly severe in later episodes, did not happen at the hands of Princess Tania.

I had to do something with the eyes of Marquis Tippole, and if it was at this level, Ai-nim would be able to deal with it without any problems.

If you think that Tania’s behavior has bothered Ai-sama until now, everything fits.

“What did you and His Majesty talk about?”

“What are you doing in Summer Turf these days? Teaching refugees, being able to use magic to a certain extent, things like that.”

“Apart from that?”

“There was no talk. If it was something serious, I would have gone with Rocks.”

When are we going to talk about succession rights properly?

The child himself must have vaguely understood, but unless the emperor properly brings up the story, it is difficult to open his mouth first on this side.

Ai asked quietly.

“Is there anything more to see?”

“I was going to see Maisie Derek if he was around, but he says he’s busy with the transmission tower again. You were busy with lasers until recently.”

“right. Neil is also being dragged around as a bonus. So, do you have any more work today?”

“No. I was hoping to see my mother. I’m busy, but I wonder if I should visit.”

Regarding the diplomatic ties with Liden, the emperor said he sent a dispatch without questioning the slightest bit. Enough time to think about the content.

I should have met Tania too, even if there is Shilin, she is the busiest person in the imperial family. I don’t think they’ll be happy to see me.

You are free until the evening when you promised to beat up Vector.

I wondered if there was anything else to do in the vast imperial palace. Ai grabbed my wrist.

“Do you have anywhere to go?”

“yes.”

I climbed the stairs with my wrist held by the child.

He had climbed the stairs past the 5th floor, where the knight was guarding, so he expected that it would be an extremely private space even in the imperial palace.

“here is… … .”

When I opened the door that stood out for its extravagant decorations, I saw a bedroom beautifully decorated with all kinds of soft fabrics.

“This is my room!”

The queen’s bed in the imperial palace.

I looked for an assessment that would be as inconsiderate as possible. It is difficult to express with my poor vocabulary.

“It’s more like a house than a room.”

“Is it wide?”

The hallway was endlessly long, but I wondered how many doors I could see.

The room was unbelievably spacious.

Ai’s room on the 15th floor of the Tower of Truth is also larger than a normal family home, but this one contains a very large mansion. Do all four siblings share a room like this?

“My room is the largest.”

“Iknow, right. Did you share this large room alone?”

“That’s why I’m not in my room except when I’m sleeping and I’ve been walking around all the time. ruler.”

Then, Ai pushes her back onto the bed. Pushing pretty hard, I hit my head on the soft bed as if I was going to get sucked into it.

Ai-nim declared.

“Do nothing until evening.”

“… … What is it?”

“Because you suffered because of me. Get some rest today. Understand?”

Why is everyone so impatient that I can’t rest? I smiled.

Still, compared to a few months ago, I’m living with enough time to catch my breath.

“What will I do if someone sees me like this?”

“No one can come in without my permission.”

“It’s daytime, so I can’t sleep… … . What are you doing in the meantime?”

“I’ll just sit here and watch The Rocks.”

Not a chair, but sitting on the floor. Of course it’s on a soft carpet.

Ai-nim, who pushed me hard into the bed, made eye contact with only his arms resting on the bed.

“Before. It was like this when Rox passed out due to the monster appearing in Summer Turge.”

“Come to think of it, what made me lie on Your Highness’s bed then?”

At the beginning of the semester, no matter how Aindarlock was, there was no significant contact with the imperial family.

After hearing about the deaths of six students from Kanin, he brought me, who had passed out, to his room and put me on a bed enchanted with healing magic.

“At first I told Maria to just throw it on the floor.”

“It deserves it then.”

It wasn’t even very friendly.

Had we only spoken three times? After class, Ai-nim would talk to me as I stayed at the back of the classroom and was tidying up.

That was just about it.

“But when I laid it down… … .”

“Was it laid down?”

“You can’t see your face well! It’s uncomfortable because I have to squat down to watch.”

“Is that why you moved to bed?”

“Yeah, I didn’t upload it for treatment. I didn’t even know there was such a thing until Maria told me.”

“haha… … .”

It’s also a rockstar.

It’s fortunate that it’s a level 10 charm.

Is that all there is to it? If it wasn’t for this ridiculous face, everything would have gone wrong.

“Um, but now that I think about it, I don’t think that was the biggest reason.”

“Could there be any other reason?”

“I was holding something, I was holding it really tight. I couldn’t get it out on my own.”

“A hand? ah… … .”

“I forced Maria to open it, so I took it out, but there was a name tag.”

Despite fainting while breaking out in a cold sweat, he was still holding on to the six nameplates with poor strength.

“Because I heard about the situation from Baeller. It was the first time I thought of it.”

“What were you thinking?”

“There are only rumors, and I’m still not sure if he’s a genius or not, and everyone talks a lot.”

Ai smiled broadly and said.

“You’re such a good kid, I thought.”

I don’t know if I can call that an effort. At that time, it was so bleak that there was no proper plan, and it was almost a struggle.

It didn’t make any sense.

“I’ve been seeing Rocks ever since. I’m curious what you’re doing The reason I came closer was just to see your face.”

The child also laid her head on the bed, and her bright blonde hair tickled her hand.

I inadvertently ran my fingers through her hair. pretty.

“I’ve said it before, but I was embarrassed and ran away.”

“… … It was.”

“You don’t have to answer.”

I want to run away at a time like this.

I couldn’t help it, so I closed my eyes. Then there was a rustling sound, and long hair brushed my wrists and forearms.

“I like you, Rocks.”

My breath reached right in front of my ears.

I thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep because it was daytime.

I was trying to pretend to be asleep, but the touch on my head made me drowsy. I really fell asleep.
