Uchikage had been researching this situation for some time, so it seems that he knew about this news.
As well as Houen.
In the meantime, they took Houen to the clinic for the time being and also took him to Irza’s place, but as I thought, they didn’t know anyone who had such skills or a good way to regain memories.
“Wait, wait, wait. How long have I been asleep?”
“Three days.”
“Holy-.”
Three days?
Isn’t my recovery speed slow?
Hey, heavenly voice, what’s going on here!
[……]
Ah, yes, that’s how you play along.
“I’ve done what we can do. But this time, we need to do something about Reizen-dono more than just regaining Houen-dono’s memory.”
“I guess so. ……”
I can’t imagine him betraying us that easily.
Or rather, I already have an idea why he attacked us.
“Did they take Prince Kreis hostage?”
“That’s the most likely possibility. Rumours of Prince Kreis and Reizen-dono have spread to other countries among the nobility. They must have known that if they took Prince Kreis as a hostage, Reizen-dono would not be able to do anything about it.”
“Well, they certainly had a standout relationship. ……”
The fact that an ordinary adventurer is staying in the royal family’s room is strange enough.
That’s not even a rumour, it’s a fact.
I guess, the nobles like to gossip around.
According to a more detailed interview, Prince Kreis’s father, King Klaus, surprisingly approved of the friendship between the two men.
I have never met him.
No, I don’t really want to meet him. ……
Back to the topic at hand, the news has been spreading among the maids and butlers.
From there, it propagated to various places and reached the people of Salettana.
When that happens, it is only a matter of time before information about the prince’s abduction is passed on to the rest of the country.
It has been roughly three months since Reizen and Prince Kreis met.
It was not surprising that other countries knew about this.
They took advantage of the situation so easily.
“So, the Kingdom of Vulpan?”
“Yes, it is. It is a large country located about 20 days away from the Kingdom of Salettana. We have no idea why they did this, but if this continues, war will surely break out.”
“So, ……, Reizen is now on the enemy’s side.”
“That’s what I think.”
“Isn’t this too much trouble ……?
“Only Ouren-sama will be able to handle it.”
His defensive power is unmatched.
His defense is mostly 50 times greater than mine.
What else he has under his sleeve is unknown, I don’t know if his status changed after his hibernation.
I have defense penetration, so if I have to deal with Reizen, I can give him an effective blow.
Anyone else would not be able to inflict even a scratch.
“…… But he was pretty serious, wasn’t he?”
“He was. It seems that the robed woman was using the substitute.”
“…You mean she’s still alive?”
“Yes. I thought I killed her, but when Ouren-sama fell, Reizen-dono also retreated. I did a follow-up attack, but all the attacks were repelled ……”
“When you went after her, Reizen carried the robed woman and ran away?”
“Yes. He moved with his explosive fist.”
“I remember that.”
When he came to rescue me, he also flew toward me with the explosive fist, right?
However, this is …….
“I don’t think we can avoid a fight with Reizen. ……”
