Niestor Cirillo Jagus, the Duke of Jagus, was visiting the .
"Recently, a four-armed golem was discovered. Do you have any information on this?"
that practically made me who I am? >>
"No. No. It seems not. ...... since it was discovered on the Maice Plain."
<>? >>
"I do not know. I have never seen one in person.
<
It is rare that the <> is asking questions to the king this time.
At these words, Lord Niestor Kyrilo Jagus bites his tongue.
"Is that true?"
.
"Ummm...... can't our engineers do that?"
>
"Why is that?"
"Who are the makers?"
<>
"......"
Not again, Lord Niestor Kyrilo Jagus thought as he left the <> behind.
He ascended the stairs in a gasp,
(This is always the case when it comes to the creator of the <>. ......And what can we learn from <> or ......the golem we are analyzing right now?)
I think about that.
"Well, well............ let's go back to Elena's."
<, the Prince went to the where Elena (the fake Elena) was being held under house arrest.
* * * *
"......Hey, take me up there."
...
Apparently lacking the strength and stamina to climb the stairs of the tower, the king ordered one of the guard golems to pick him up and carry him to the top.
"Well, Your Majesty, welcome."
Elena (the false Elena) greeted the nobleman Niestor amiably when she saw him.
"Yes. ...... what's on the menu today?"
And the first thing he does is to talk about food.
Sashimi.
"What's that?"
"It's a dish of raw fish caught in the sea."
...... Is that what you call cooking?
The king is a bit nervous when he hears that fish is eaten raw.
"Yes. "Yes. I had the fish drained of blood as soon as it was caught and brought back on ice, so it's fresh.
Look at this," said Elena (the fake Elena), who brought it from the kitchen.
"Oh, what's this?
"This is sashimi of trevor (horse mackerel). This is a dish of fuko (sea bass) .
Sake made in Horaijima, delivered via Nostalgia, was prepared.
Of course, soy sauce and wasabi were also provided.
"...... Well then, let's try it."
Considering all the dishes that Elena (fake Elena) had served so far, the king believed that this was also a delicious dish or a delicacy.
A slice of trevor sashimi was served in a soy sauce with a hint of horseradish.
"I've tasted soy sauce a few times, but I've never tasted wasabi before. ......"
He eats a lot of Japanese food, and his chopstick use is very confident.
"Oh, this is ...... delicious!
Then he takes a sip of sake.
"This sake is also delicious! It tastes completely different from white wine!
"I'm glad it suits your taste. Here you go.
Elena (fake Elena) smiles and offers him a glass of sake.
"Mmm, let's try this one. ...... Oh, this one is delicious too! This one is more succulent!"
He seemed to like it very much.
He said, "I also like this spice called wasabi. The spiciness goes through the nose, not the tongue, and does not linger.
"If you put it directly on the sashimi without dissolving it in soy sauce, you will be able to taste more of the flavor.
"Hmm, let's see. ............ Oh, indeed! It has a twang in the nose, and then the aroma seems to spread."
Lord King Niestor Kyrillo Jagus seemed to like the sashimi as well, and he ate ...... all the sashimi and sashimi wash prepared for him, about two servings, and drank more than five gongs of sake. I drank more than 5 gou of sake.
"......mmm, I enjoyed it. I will be back."
With these words, Lord Niestor left the tower with a drunken gait.
Of course, the golem held him as he descended the stairs.
* * * *
"......The king seems to be in a very poor state of health.
Elena (fake Elena), who was alone now that the cook sent from the castle had left, thought to herself, "He has a lifestyle disease.
"It's a lifestyle-related disease. ...... high blood pressure, fatty liver. Your kidneys seem to be a little bit deteriorated as well.
She has that level of medical function.
"Your knee joints are getting deformed, and your spine is getting herniated ......."
Elena (fake Elena) wonders if there are any good healers.
So she contacted the old man.
"...... is the answer. How would Elsa diagnose it?
<
"Then, if you continue as you are, ......"
The old man thinks about it.
What will happen to the Duchy of Jagus if King Niëstor falls?
<<
In that case, it will bring chaos to the Duchy of Jagus, it seems.
>
Therefore, the old man decided that it would be more convenient for Niestor to remain a little longer as the king.
The campaign against the Duchy of Jagus was about to enter a new phase.
