According to Ray, there is a staircase that leads to the imperial castle nearby.
Running down it, I call the swordsman running next door. [M]
"Dudley... you're following me normally... what do you mean?
Ha? Well, that's settled.
Dudley punches both fists and displays a hateful expression.
"I can't forgive you... You let me and Leon get away with this, you bastard."
…………
That bastard... you mean First Prince Rafer?
Of course I am.
Dudley was used by Rayfer, according to Commander Fomes of the 19th Division.
Does it make sense to get angry?
"... I don't mind following you, but don't do anything extra. I don't even know what's waiting for me anymore..."
"Ah, leave it to me!!
A glimmer of anxiety remains... well, are you all right?
Compared to Team A headed by Kaya, my team was somewhat anxious in terms of combat. As long as Dudley is around, the concern can be dispelled.
... you really don't know what happens in life.
I didn't know you were going to walk with Dudley. Is that too unexpected?
"... by the way, hey"
As he ran, Dudley whispered in his ear.
"What's her name... when she runs behind you? A girl with green hair."
A girl with green hair... you mean Em?
"... what do you do when you hear that?"
"Well, I don't really care!
Dudley blushed her cheeks.
"I just don't know my name, so I'm worried...."
What are you looking at and talking about, Mr. Arios?
Em grabbed my hem.
"No, he wants to know your name."
"My... name...?
M leans his neck tightly.
"Um, I'm called Em. Best regards, weird oniisan (...)"
"Hee, weird oniisan...!?
I burst into Dudley's eyes. [M]
Well, maybe.
The first time M met Dudley was when he went to take control of House Aldo.
At that time, Dudley came in without reading the air and shouted many times that he didn't know why.
I mean, for M, that's the first impression - it makes sense to think he's weird.
Nice to meet you, weird brother.
"No, stop!!
When I slapped Dudley on the shoulder, Dudley challenged me with tears.
A few minutes later.
Door leading to Rafer's private room.
We stood in front of him. [M]
"Ray, this is it."
"Yes, I'm sure."
The second princess nodded.
I interceded with many servants until I got here, but thanks to her presence I was able to do nothing. You were right to make her Team B.
... and then pass the key from King EUFESS and we'll get it in without a problem.
According to Comrade A, Rafer is not here at the moment. Of course, I don't feel any sign of people from the inside, but I've never been too careful.
Take a breath and insert the key into the keyhole. And he gently opened the door with the utmost vigilance.
"... what is it, a normal room?"
Dudley shouted.
"Ah... that's right..."
Of course it is a royal room, and the luxury of decoration is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Chandelier lights gently on a red carpet laid out throughout the room. A variety of eye-catching condiments. All of that is in a luxurious word.
"Master Arios... I have a bad feeling about this..."
M squeezed my hem anxiously. [M]
Maybe she's instinctively feeling it.
What's in this room?
I close my eyes and sharpen my consciousness. [M] I have a technique that feels the air around me and doesn't miss even a slight discomfort.
― ― Abyssal source stream. One type.
--No breathing.
…………
I'll just shut up for a few seconds, and...
"There it is!!
Activates "Small Attack Up" in "Cheat Code Operation" and slashes a point on the wall.
and.
"Ah...!
M shouted loudly.
A blackened space peeked into my face from my slashed wall. [M] And, paradoxically, the space itself seems slowly stupid.
"Ray, this is...."
When I asked the second princess, she shook her head. [M]
"I don't know. I've never seen anything like this before...!
... I guess.
There must be another room next to the room, so it's strange to have something like this.
--First of all, you should aim for Rafer's private room. But there's no Rafer there. Together with party leader Manuza, he jumped into a different dimension of space -
Comrade A's tip seems to be true. If we jump in here, we can go to another dimension.
And there's Rafer and party leader Manuza.
"Hey Alios, what have you done...?
"Ha...?
For some reason, I answer Dudley with my face open.
"I just found strange signs and slashed every defensive magic."
"Weird signs....? I didn't feel anything at all!?
I see. It was well hidden by defensive magic. "
"Then why did you notice?!
Ray and Em say a word to Dudley as she turns red and screams.
"Because that's Arios."
I made him a faggot.
"What is it, it's not explained!
"Really? I think it's an easy-to-understand commentary."
Ray said it was obvious.
... are you talking about everybody?
I coughed it up.
"... are you all ready?"
and switched topics.
"I don't know what's going to happen next. Still... will you follow me?
"Yeah! Of course!
My childhood friend Raymond Lee Arseus is the first to cheerfully announce.
"If I had Arios, I'd follow you everywhere...! So let's work together!
"Wow, me too....! I'm a little scared, but I'm following Arios!!
Em similarly declared her face red.
And then...
"Hmm."
Dudley had a playful smile and pointed his fist at me. [M]
Me too, Rafer...
"--let's do our best together, weird oniisan!!
"So stop being such a weird oniisan!!
It was Dudley, who was dominated by Em and couldn't dress up alone.
