Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 646

 

Greatest Enemy



Currently, the Empire's greatest enemy is Elfriade, who is said to be in space.


Tuega and the faction inside the seal have been confirmed to have been eradicated.


From Elfriade's point of view, the only opposing force is probably the Empire.



"Your Majesty, we are ready."



A person who is both my wife and my secretary enters the room and calls out to me.



"I'll head over right away."



Appearance is fine


From their point of view, the clothes should be nice, neither excessive nor modest.



"Penwood, I'll entrust you with the escort."


"Ha! Even if it costs me my life."



There are 2 people


In that case, there should be two people to show equality.


Civil officials and ministers howled that there were too few


If Penwood can't and there's nothing we can do about it, no matter how many knights we have, it won't help us buy time.


If so, we should prioritize gaining a good impression.



We proceed through the passage and arrive at a room


Not in the reception room


This is a top secret meeting.



"…Be careful"



My wife opens the door to the room


……There are 3 people?


Weren't there two people?


In front of me was a man who was a younger version of Shiro-dono.


A mature... melancholic version of Wince-dono? I don't know how to explain it, but that's the kind of woman she is.


The two of them were sitting on the chairs we had prepared and waiting.


In the middle of the two of them was a man sitting on a chair with an unknown design made of materials unknown to us.



"Are you the representative of the Empire?"



Penwood shows a displeased look at the man who starts talking without bowing his head.


Does it matter?


If you're coming with that attitude, I don't think there's any need to be so polite.



"That's right."


"I am the general representative of Elfriade. Let’s make this a meaningful time, Emperor-dono."



For a moment, I could see the man's body distort.


I noticed this and looked at his feet and finally figured it out.


There's no shadow


This man is not here


The Empire is also researching holographic technology, but it is impossible to produce images as delicate as this.



After all, it can be said that the Empire is vastly inferior to them in terms of technology.




―――




And we started checking each other's current situation.


Of course, after hiding the contents that should be kept secret,


They probably have no intention of exposing everything inside their belly.



"I see. Are you planning to immigrate to another planet?"



I heard that story yesterday too.


No, don't be silly! I almost screamed


I seriously yelled at Shiro-dono because I lost my composure due to the content.


However, since Ginkei-dono's approval is that it is possible, this is a problem.


And we must use the content related to it in our dealings with the greatest threat.


I hope you feel the same way I do, which makes me think about how I'm going to spend the night.


I wanted at least two months to think about it.



"As the main god Lute-sama said, we have no intention of attacking you unless you cause us harm."


"You think I can trust you?"


"You both attacked us in the past. You could say it's mutual."



There are a lot of people who want to kill them all for harming Wince-dono.


It's my job to suppress that.



"Hmm, they’re probably investigating the ship that made an emergency landing anyway."



Probably so


No reports have been made yet, but Yukikaze-dono should be on the move immediately.



"If we don't repair it, won't your soldiers be able to return home?"


"That's right, aside from everything else, I'll be in trouble if I don't get Ain back. I can make a replacement, but the cost of doing so isn't cheap."



So don't do any harm. And



"That's right, then let me send an escort."


"…Okay, what is the scope of their activities?"



Let them move freely to some extent



"…Anywhere within the empire’s territory."


"I see. Is it prohibited to go outside the country?"



I don't think he misunderstood.


I don't think he would do anything to incite anti-imperialist ideology in other countries.


Rather, the decision was made after considering the safety of both of them.


It may sound unpleasant to say, but there are many fools in the Holy Kingdom and the Southwest Continent.



When it comes to inciting and uniting anti-Imperial forces, they'll definitely want everything from them.


That’s exactly what beggars do.



I don't want to sound condescending, but these two continents are still immature.


They believed that they were special and had no doubts


They didn't doubt that there were no replacements for them.


Therefore, all humans did not doubt that they should be given everything


It is not a matter of asking for help; it is only natural to receive help, and there is no doubt that helping oneself is a natural, honorable, and noble act.


And yet, they don't give charity.


There are still many such people in the southwestern continent and the Holy Kingdom.



There is a possibility that they will become hysterical due to short-sighted thinking and harm these two people... it will definitely happen.




―――




Then there is no problem


After the ship is repaired, the two will return to space.


Perhaps in a few years, their representatives will come down.


Steps have been taken to declare peace to the world.



It's going to be busy from now on


Regardless of whether you are pro-imperial or anti-imperial.


It is necessary to thoroughly find out these suspicious people.
