Reunion
It's so hard.
It's so painful that I really want to lose my memory.
Even though I know they are not Wince, I want to forget the reality that I cut their heads.
"Commander!"
Three people found me and came running towards me.
Tyler, Alex, and Sarah.
"Yo, good morning."
"It's already evening, isn't it?"
"I see, yeah."
I have to try not to show my pain as much as possible.
"What kind of gathering did the three of you have?"
"Yes! King Olasha taught us how to use the sword!"
"...Hmm, was that helpful?"
"It was more helpful than fighting the Commander!"
"I see! Alex, are you trying to pick a fight? Wanna do it? Commander-kun is going to act maturely"
"It can't be helped. The Commander is too strong to be of any help."
"…Really?"
I thought I was making it easy for them to understand.
"Master can solve the problem with his physical ability, so there is nothing we can do about it."
It is Tyler who comes to such a conclusion.
"Tyler... King Olasha's sword skills are better, right?"
"I don't know if my swordsmanship is higher or lower, but Master can more than compensate for that."
"I see, it won’t be helpful."
"Sometimes you have to go without restraint, Master."
"Hmm?"
"The three of us heard about Master from Yukikaze-sama."
"Eh? How far?"
"Everything since you met Yukikaze-sama."
Why did you talk!
"Yukikaze-sama says that she would like Master Shiro to stay here for several years."
"Did something happen?"
"She considered it dangerous that Prelati was in this area."
And two people
No. 1 and No. 4 male... or was it female?
We need to protect two people whose gender we don't know.
"I need to find out why Prelati was targeting them."
"I'm planning to talk to them tomorrow. Would you like to come with me?"
"Please"
We may know the inner workings of our enemy that we don't know about.
I don't want to bring them back to the empire without knowing the details and end up in a situation where Prelati invades.
"Maybe it would be better to run around this continent and investigate things."
"You want to go that far? We'll do research in every country on this continent?"
"I'll leave that to you. I'll investigate on my own."
Mainly on foot
This is because the larger the scale, the more likely it is to be overlooked.
"Oh, and..."
"Anything else?"
"Yes, you know that there is a mountain range with cliffs to the north of this continent, right?"
"I saw when I came here, was the entire north side of the continent a mountain?"
"Yes, and we have a plan to dig a tunnel through that mountain."
"Did Yukikaze propose it too?"
"No, Seltense made the plan and Yukikaze-sama and I agreed to it."
Build a large-scale road from this Marguerite kingdom.
Through the mountains
It seems that the plan is to create a city in the imperial territory beyond that point.
"That's quite a large scale..."
"But it is an important plan for Marguerite."
If the Empire and Marguerite conduct diplomatic relations without this tunnel, an airship will be required.
The entire north side of this continent is closed off by cliffs.
For diplomatic relations, an airship is sufficient.
This is not the case when conducting trade.
Airships can't carry that much stuff.
If you increase the number of airships, the cost will increase.
If you go by ship from east to west, the cost of wagons and tariffs would be enormous.
"What would you do beyond the mountains?"
I hadn't checked beyond the mountains by the time I got here.
"It's the sea, but Yukikaze-sama said there was no problem."
"I see. Well, if Yukikaze says so, there must be a solution."
Will they find a shallow spot and fill it up?
"One more thing."
"What?"
"A celebration is being planned to commemorate the restoration of diplomatic relations between the Empire, Geldarinne, the Holy Kingdom, and this continent."
"What's it going to be?"
"They say they're building a school. It's international."
"That's pretty grand, isn't it? How many years will the plan take?"
"The Dead Desert... ah, I mean this Marguerite territory."
"I don't like the name of this desert."
"In fact, before I came, the land was barren. It has become quite green."
"That's tough, what's next?"
"There is plenty of open territory. The school itself will be ready soon, and Yukikaze-sama said she would bring an architect."
"The rest is foil?"
"Yes"
It's a lot of work to put a foil on something new, isn't it?
"The easiest thing to do would be to admit royalty and nobility."
"And in large numbers, from many nations."
"Yes, and they'll need the knowledge that comes with royalty and nobility."
"Are you worried about a leak of imperial knowledge?"
"Is that a problem?"
"No problem."
Rather, spread it out more and more!
Let's make everyone aware of the dangers of Prelati and Elfriade on this continent.
It doesn't seem like the Empire can win on its own.
We need more strength
"Well, let me know when you've worked out the details. Is this the right place to eat?"
"Yes, ah!"
Tyler suddenly shouts
"What's wrong?"
"No, I didn't say that."
"What?"
"It's been a while. Master."
"...That's right, it's true. What are we talking about naturally?"
"Master is the same as before, so I am treating you normally.''
"You've changed a lot."
"Is that so?"
"You've become great!"
"Thank you!"
Then we parted ways
