Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 576

 

Going to the Empire



"I want to meet His Majesty the Emperor."



Spring is over


Summer has begun


The southwestern continent has its hottest period of the year.


Meanwhile, 10 days before the school's summer break, Eugenia said something like that.



"Even though I'm a prince, that's impossible."


"I was just trying to say it."



Is that so



"I just wanted to have an audience with His Majesty if possible."


"What do you mean?"


"I have decided to go to the Empire while school is closed."



Apparently, Eugenia's father is heading to the empire to buy things.


And she will go along with it



"That’s a pretty tough schedule, isn’t it?"


"The period of stay in the empire will be about three days. Is there any problem with that?"



Well, if you say there's no problem, that's fine.



"What is it, what are you talking about?"



And where did Tinia appear from?



"It's about heading to the Empire while school is closed."


"Ah, I want to go too."



With Mileina



"We wanna go too!"


"Yes!"


"Yeah!"



Mac and the others



"Do you have a travel fee? It's a round trip."


"How much?"



Well... I've never paid for it so I don't know.



"It's about 15 silver coins for a round trip."


"I can afford it."



Mileina usually helps the teachers in the agriculture department, so she seems to have some money.


Furthermore, she apparently earns short-term income by doing farm work on her days off.


Of these guys, Mileina probably has the most personal funds.



"I… well, somehow."



It looks like Tinia will be okay too.



"It's better not to force yourself to come."


"But speaking of the Empire, it's a country where the latest in every field gathers! I need to go there when I can and buy what I can!"



Heavy breathing


What does this guy want to buy?



"""Leader!"""


"What is it?"


"""Please lend us money!"""


"I don't want to."



Mac and the others don't seem to be able to afford it.


Give up


You guys are always spending money like a bunch of idiots.



"Ara? Leader is a heartless person."


"I'm not the leader."



Eugenia is making fun of me, but it doesn't matter.


Just because these guys follow me around without permission doesn't mean I am the leader.



"Then, would you three please help me?"


"""That means!"""


"It's a bit of labor. I'll have you work when we go to the Empire, okay?"


"""Hyahoo!"""



That's why you guys are idiots


You will be treated and used, all three of you.



"But why did such a thing suddenly come up?"


"Ara? Ask-san, haven't you heard from His Majesty?"



I haven't heard anything


Did something happen



"There is talk among the merchants that they will be selling synthetic resin products from within the empire at low prices."



Synthetic resins are used in various products within the empire.


During manufacturing, it is divided into soft and hard.


Lenses and coatings, clothing fibers, various containers


Anyway, it's versatile, so I can't say for sure.



"Has Eugenia heard anything?"


"There are no details, I'm just accompanying my father."



I see


I'll try asking it when I can



"No, why are you talking about me going home too?"


"Aren't you going home?"


"I have no plans to return."


"Then decide to go home."


"Why"


“Since Ask-san is a prince, wouldn’t it be possible to see various places with a free pass if I accompanied you?”


"It's not impossible, but there are limits."


"For example?"


"It's impossible to go to the innermost part of the Imperial City Great Temple."



It is said that there is a world where gods live in the innermost part of the great temple.


The only people allowed to enter there are priests who have followed formal procedures with the emperor.


All that's left is someone who meets certain conditions.



"Is this a place that even Ask-san can't enter?"



Mileina seemed interested.



"If I become emperor, I will be able to enter."



Of course, it's just me


Oh, there was an exception.


No, it's just a rumor



"Special knight…"


"What is that?"


"It seems that there are knights in the empire who are called that."


"You say you don’t have any proof?"



The source of the rumor is unknown


It is said that it serves the gods directly.


Sometimes there are beings who are given authority that exceeds that of the emperor.


That's the rumor


Chief God, God of War, God of Dragon, God of Mercy, God of Wisdom


And God without figure


If there's one in each of those six pillars



"It's like a myth."


"It would be so"



It's a myth that still exists today.
