Prison Break
***---***
It was almost time for the date to change, but the royal castle of Aldaros was lit up brightly, and many soldiers were moving around.
Camilla, who returned to her room and changed into her usual outfit that looked like a luxurious knight's uniform, had a sour expression on her face.
"Camilla, can you explain what's going on?"
"Welcome back, Maou-sama. Lastock is ..."
"Yeah, a horde of monsters chased by a Hydra was approaching, and it was a pretty dangerous situation, but I feel like I managed to protect it somehow."
"Hydra! Did a Hydra really appear?"
"I'm not familiar with monsters, but if there are other snakes with three heads that are even bigger than a Gigas, it might not be a Hydra."
After looking at Camilla, the Knight Commander timidly asked.
"Maou-dono, what happened to that Hydra?"
"Yeah, I think probably, it maybe blew to pieces ..."
"The Hydra blew to pieces ... What kind of attack did you make?"
"Hmm ... Somehow or another, it might be something like that, maa, isn't it good to have a different attack method? More importantly, I heard that someone escaped ..."
Both Camilla and the Knight Commander bowed their heads.
"I'm sorry Maou-sama. I allowed Havre Calvine to escape."
"I thought as much ..."
The First Queen went crazy, Camilla was seriously injured on the verge of death, monsters invaded the castle ... And so on, rumors flew about, and the royal castle was thrown into chaos.
While most people's eyes were on the inner palace, the prison in which he was imprisoned was breached and Havre Calvine disappeared.
"So, the person who spread the rumor to the First Queen, did that person cooperate in helping him?"
"Yes, we are still in the stage of investigating, but it seems that some people have spread suspicious information and caused confusion in the royal castle."
"Even so, is the security of the royal castle something that can be broken so easily?"
"I'm truly sorry. It seems that this time they went through the sewer and escaped into the waterway."
The King who was killed the other day was said to be a Foolish King, and the Princes could do whatever they wanted, inside they royal castle, there was no discipline, and noone would be imprisoned, so the prison appeared to have been unused.
As a result, the guards were also inexperienced, and the turmoil surrounding Camilla's assassination attempt left them agitated and they left their post.
I was at a loss for words.
Even so, it seemed likely that the escape could have been prevented if they had gone through a normal corridor, but it seemed that the people who guided Havre went down the sewer.
"The royal castle's sewage, what is it like?"
"Sewage is collected in one place, purified by magic tools, and then drained into the water moat surrounding the royal castle. However, if you pass through a passage that hasn't been purified, you will naturally be covered in filth."
"It was thought that no one would ever pass through such a place."
"That's right, and the waterway that leads to the moat is fitted with a lattice, and normally people can't enter or exit."
"Is that lattice broken?"
"Yes, it seems that they were well prepared."
It seemed that Havre Calvine had his minions lurking in the royal castle in addition to those who acted on the surface.
Even after he lost the showdown in the Chamber of Proceedings, they would have survived, leaving room for resurgence.
By the time the escape was discovered, it was already dark, and it seemed that it was difficult to track down Havre, who had left the royal castle.
"If there was a collaborator inside the royal castle, it would be better to think that he is naturally outside the royal castle, right?"
"Yes, we are still investigating, but it is reasonable to assume that they have already left the royal capital."
"The escape destination is naturally his own territory, isn't it?"
"Probably ..."
"Are there any nobles who are likely to cooperate with Havre?"
"That part is a little tricky. Havre was originally a heavyweight of the Second Prince faction, and it is possible that he has taken in those who border his territory."
I thought that all the troubles in Resenburg had been cleared up, but when the most troublesome Havre was able to escape, I felt like we've stepped back a lot, if not going back to the beginning.
In the worst case, the possibility of a civil war could not be denied.
Havre's territory was a mountainous area, including mines, to the north of the royal castle.
When I went to do reconnaissance about a month ago, Havre's castle was covered with snow.
Perhaps it would be closed by deep snow.
"Hey, Camilla, does the Calvine territory get a lot of snow?"
"It seems that it changes depending on the year, but it seems that during the winter, luggage is transported by sleds instead of horse-drawn carriages."
For two to three months, the roads to Calvine's territory were blocked by snow.
Work in the mines continued throughout the winter regardless of whether it snowed outside and supported the finances of the Calvine territory.
"In that situation, even if Havre runs away, there is little worry that he will attack the royal capital."
"Yes, it is as you say, but it is difficult to attack from here as well."
It's true that it's insane to attack up a snowy mountain road.
"So, Camilla, what are you going to do now?"
"Yes, I would like to avoid it if possible, but I will start preparing for battle."
"Have you already sent the news to the nobles who govern the lands adjacent to the Havre territory?"
"Yes, I don't know if they will be allies, but I have a fast horse running."
If the neighboring nobles were to weigh the balance between their past friendly relations and their acts of rebellion, including the murder of the King, which side would they side with, if you thought about it normally, they would side with Camilla.
However, since the opponent was the battle-hardened Havre Calvine, I didn't know what kind of move he would use.
As for Camilla, it seemed that she wanted to encircle the Calvine territory by the time the snow melted, with the surrounding nobles at her side.
In any case, it seemed that the aristocrats were reluctant to take any action as it was the time before the year-end and New Year holidays, and it was expected that things would start to move after the new year.
"Knight Commander, I would like you to first identify and eliminate Havre's collaborators. I don't want Camilla's life to be targeted any more, to prevent any further disorder. I wonder if you can prepare a system for personal protection, including a poison taster."
"As you wish. We have already detained several collaborators. We will prepare a security system for Camilla-sama as soon as possible."
"Also, a large number of monsters have entered beyond Lastock, being chased by the Hydra. Beginning with the Gleisner territory, warn the people of the southern region to be vigilant."
"How many monsters are there?"
"I don't know the exact number, but it's better to think that Lastock is current isolated in the Devil's Forest. In fact, it feels like the Devil's Forest has overflowed beyond the river."
When I told him about the swarm of monsters that were mainly Nibble Rats, the Commander's expression clouded over.
"In addition to Havre Calvine, we have to allocate personnel to countermeasures against monsters ..."
"But, doesn't that just depend on your way of thinking?"
"How do you mean?"
"Yeah, in the country where I was born and raised, and the neighboring country across the sea, when an inconvenient situation occurs within the country, they fend off domestic criticism by making foreign countries out to be enemies. If you replace this with Resenburg, the matter of Havre is a domestic trouble, and the monster swarm is a foreign country, isn't it?"
"Indeed, the country is united under the common enemy of monsters."
"That's right. Can you do it, Camilla?"
"Yes, I will bring the country together with the plan given to me by Maou-sama, and I will settle the matter of Havre and show you."
After discussing the transportation of relief supplies in case Lastock's isolation was prolonged, the Knight Commander returned to take measures to take back to the knights.
It seemed that Camilla's living room was protected by a team of female knights, including the corridor, under the window, and in the next room.
A female knight was attached to the people in charge of serving tea and other things, watching over them to make sure they didn't act suspiciously, and at the same time acted as a taster.
Even now, two female knights were standing in the corner of the room, watching over us.
"Umm ... Maou-sama, is my brother Diethelm safe?"
"Yeah, he was commanding on the ramparts while being accompanied by Jürgen, the royal guard. He was bathed in the blood of the monsters, but I think it was a good experience."
"Bathed in the blood of monsters ... That's how he commanded the front line."
"Ehh, uu, yeah ... Maa, something like that ..."
It's the blood that was the result of what I did, but I thought it would be better to keep quiet here.
"Maou-sama, thank you for saving my life this time as well. I promise once again that I will dedicate my body and soul to serve you."
Seeing Camilla standing up from the sofa and kneeling in front of me, the guarding female knights had a startled expression on their faces.
"This time, it was fine because Hart informed me so quickly, but in a similar situation, I can't always be there in time. The problem of the desertification in the west, and the monster issue this time, there are a lot of problems in Resenburg, so you can't be allowed to die so easily."
"Yes, I promise to work to protect the people and enrich the country."
I approached Camilla, who had bowed her head again, and hugged her.
"I'm so glad ... I thought it was no good for a while."
"Ma, Maou-sama."

I hugged the surprised Camilla tightly and confirmed her warmth.
"I won't allow you to let this heartbeat stop without my permission."
"Yes ..."
"Because I used a special medicine to increase my magical power, I think I'll be unable to move for about three days, so don't let your guard down."
"Maou-sama, to do that for me ..."
After answering Camilla's question by embracing her once more, I released her body and stood up.
"I will return to Volzard. In case of emergency, let us know through Hart as before. Camilla Resenburg, do your best for the people!"
"Ha! , as you wish."
Her enchanted expression tightened in an instant, and seeing Camilla bow her head while answering with a stern voice, the female knights who guarded her also knelt and bowed their heads.
Yup, I'm becoming more and more like a Demon King.
As soon as I put out a shield of darkness and walked calmly into the shadows, I reached my limit.
My knees suddenly lost their strength and I couldn't get up.
"Reinhardt, this might be bad ... I probably won't be able to move ..."
[ Kent-sama, where are you going back to? ]
"Umm, the boarding house is no good ... The Devil's Forest, is no good ..."
I was told that I would have to sleep for three days, but I hadn't thought of any countermeasures.
For the time being, where in Volzard should I return to, I didn't have enough energy to think about it, and my consciousness was getting hazy.
"Umm ... Umm ..."
While I was thinking about it, my consciousness faded, and after that I ended up experiencing the horror of the booster's side effects.
When I woke up, I was lying on a bed in some room.
I was shocked when I tried to move my head to see what was going on in the room.
My consciousness was quite dim, and I couldn't move my body at all.
I could only move my eyelids and eyeballs, and when I moved my gaze, it didn't seem like I was in my boarding house room.
I hurriedly talked to Reinhardt via telepathy
[ Reinhardt, Reinhardt! ]
[ Are you awake, Kent-sama? ]
[ I can't move my body. What should I do? ]
[ As expected, did that happen ... ]
[ What do you mean? Reinhardt, did you know this would happen? ]
[ It's not exactly the same, but there was a similar medicine in the time when we were alive. You will be able to use a large amount of magical power temporarily, but as a side effect, you will not be able to move your body ... ]
[ What should I do, hey, what should I do? ]
[ Calm down, Kent-sama, you will return to normal in a few days. ]
I almost panicked because I couldn't move at all, but I was relieved to hear that I would go back to normal, and at the same time, I realized I was thirsty.
[ Reinhardt, water, give me some water. ]
[ As you wish. However, that is not my role. ]
[ Ehh, what's going on? ]
The shadows of three people jumped into my field of vision, clearing my doubts.
"Kento, are you awake?"
"Kent, Kent, stay strong."
"Kent-sama, I'm so glad ..."
When I saw the worried faces of the chairman, Manon, and Beatriche, I remembered my promise to have breakfast with them, but I couldn't even say a word of apology.
Even when the chairman and Manon lifted me up and put the cup to my mouth, I couldn't even drink water properly.
Then, the chairman put water in her mouth and fed it to me.
Next was Manon, and then Beatriche.
[ Yup, not being able to move is not all bad. ]
[ Kent-sama, the situation where you cannot move by yourself is not a very praiseworthy situation. ]
[ I know. But, I hope everyone will be kind to me ... ]
[ Fumu ... Kent-sama, you have to reflect a little. ]
[ No, no, I'm reflecting properly. I'm thinking about not having to use the booster anymore. ]
After having the three of them each give me two mouth-to-mouth drinks, my thirst was quenched and I felt a little more conscious, but I couldn't move my body at all.
[ Well ... I've been busy lately, so it's good to take it easy once in a while. ]
[ Haa ... Kent-sama, it seems that you haven't reflected enough, but, maa, you'll regret it soon. ]
It was true that the three of them would be putting off sermon time until after I could move my body, but for now, I thought it was fine to enjoy the situation to its fullest.
Reinhardt was just a worrywart ... Thinking of such, how naive it was, it was already creeping up on me.
[ Uu! , what should I do ... ]
[ What's wrong, Kent-sama. ]
[ Umm ... just a little, the bathroom ... ]
[ Nuhahaha, please, please, don't hesitate to go. ]
[ No, I can't move ... ]
[ That's right. You need help with this. Let me tell them. ]
[ Ehh!! Wa, wait a minute, who are you going to tell? ]
[ That's a stupid question that is uncharacteristic of Kent-sama. It's obviously the three in front of you. ]
[ No, no, no, wait, wait! No, no, that's a little ... ]
[ Kent-sama, if you are careless, you will have to take care of yourself. ]
[ No, because ... ]
[ So, which is it? Big or small? ]
[ Eeeehhhh ... ]
A body that didn't move even the slightest bit, and an ever-increasing urge to urinate.
I decided to accept the harsh reality because I couldn't let it leak and dirty the bed.
I couldn't keep my eyes open, so I had no choice but to close them tightly and wait for the time to pass.
"Kento, I'll prepare the urinal, so please wait a moment."
"Eh! , Eh! , Riche, are you going to take it off?"
"What are you talking about, Manon-san, we have to take it off."
"Eh! , but, men don't have to take off their clothes ... "We should take them off, Manon, help me.""
"Eh! , yeah ..."
Ahh, they took off my belt, unbuttoned my trousers, pulled them down, and completely undressed me.
The strings on my underpants were also untied ... Ah, I feel so relieved ... Wait, what's with this strange silence.
"The two of you, Kent-sama will catch a cold."
"R, right. We have to hurry up ..."
"U, umm, who's going to do it?"
"Eh! , that's ..."
"At this time, all three of us ..."
Eeehhh ... Don't you think you don't have to do that kind of joint work?
Ah! Aaaahhhh ...
[ Buhahahaha, Kent-sama, you certainly leave nothing to be desired, buhahahaha. ]
[ Uuhh ... I will fast until my body can move. ]
[ Nuhahaha, it would be nice if your body could move before that time comes. ]
"Kento, preparations are complete, so it's fine ..."
In the end, with the helping hands of the three people, I was placed on the urinal and finished using the toilet without soiling the bed, but for the next two days, it was decided to continue my life of being helped by the three people.
The three gave me not only water, but also soup and stew, saying that I should get as much nutrition as possible so that I could recover quickly.
However, if the stomach and intestines are active, the natural physiological desire will come, and my nerves were scraped off before I could move my body.
