Castle Harpe. Able to be called Veris’s third largest castle, as it’s almost right in the center of Veris, it is also a strong fortress prepared to face attack from all directions.
That’s the castle I am in right now.
As an encirclement net is being laid out here, the armies of the nobles continues to gather. While there are armies of few numbers like us who gathered, there are those with armies exceeding a thousand. I guess it’s because the encirclement net that is narrowing gradually that we could have a centralized operation. (TL: I believe the gaps in the net are the ones narrowing.)
As I was thinking about that, after taking a glimpse of the fan, I looked at a piece of paper. As it was in between the fan, it’s from Sophia.
The content of the letter that was written in very polite words was the explanation of this powerful fan that was called the Divine Fan and also her words at the end of it. Though this would be more of a manual than a letter, but it doesn’t only have instructions, so if a letter is what you convey your feelings with, then this would be a letter, i guess.
“Think of it as my substitute…you say”
Please think of it as my substitute.
Though those are the only words written at the end of it, even it’s a short sentence, it could convey what needs to be conveyed. I grasp the fan tightly, and release it slowly.
This is already the battlefield. To fulfil the promise, I have to become stronger no matter what. I have to continue showing my strength no matter what. Towards the enemies, even to my allies.
A small knock could be heard from the door. This is a simple waiting room. After reaching the castle, I was brought here immediately.
“His Highness has requested for you to come quickly.”
Though an unknown youngster, he lowered his head while informing that.
Even if the preparation of receiving me has been made, it’s still too early. If there’s a clock, it’s a time where the needle would have already moved to the next day.
“What is Dio-sama doing right now?”
“He’s in the middle of a war council. He wishes for you to join in.”
“I see. I will go immediately. Can I ask you to guide me?”
“Certainly.”
As I walked quickly out of the room, the youngster said “This way”, and started walking in front of me. This castle is enormous. I have confidence that without a guide, I will definitely not be able to reach my destination. Well, though when the time comes, I can always just bring up the map, but it feels like I am wasting the use of my skills. Being too dependent on it would result in a blunder from an opening. You must always use your own strength to do what you can first. For now, I will start with remembering the structure and routes of the castle.
It’s about 10 minutes of continuous walking, i guess. As I have climbed a number of stairs, it’s most likely on the higher levels. Though it’s quite harsh on the legs, I reached the front of the destined room.
“Excuse me. I have brought Kurei-sama over.”
“Kindly enter.”
Likely that it has been conveyed beforehand, the escort soldiers said that without verifying with the insides. Though I am about to leak a smile as I thought that it has been a while since meeting Dio-sama and Earl Uren, I can’t let that smile be expressed. This is not to meet up with Dio-sama and Earl Uren. I came for the sake of enabling Dio-sama to win as soon as possible. Not as the usual talking companion.
I opened the 2-metre long door slowly.
It seems like there are various people in armor chatting around a huge table in the middle of the room. No, it shouldn’t be something like chatting, right? I guess I should say they are discussing about their opinions.
And that was stopped. The sights of 10+ knights, furthermore knights who lead an army, were concentrated on me. As expected of people who threw themselves into the fight, the glint in their eyes are all bizarrely sharp and strong. To the point I could feel difficulty in my breathing.
It’s already like this with your allies, and not the enemies. I think it’s even worst if it’s against the enemies.
Then, if I am going to be overwhelmed by them to this extent, I don’t think I can even face Dio-sama’s elder sister Kaguya-sama. If I don’t get engulfed here on the contrary, that is.
It seems impossible to make Dio-sama win.
“Yukito Kurei. Reporting at your call.”
“It’s good that you have come. Good work on the escort task of the Celsus Maiden.”
Dio-sama informed me with a casual tone. Though it basically means it’s such a place, if I am going to be overwhelmed, I have no choice but to seize the initiative.
For now, the only thing to do is to gather everyone’s visual.
“If it’s task of that extent, there are plenty. Just that, there aren’t any task that are so gentle to the eyes.”
“Then, sorry for disturbing your fortunate time.”
“Totally. But, I heard that Princess Kaguya is also a beauty. I came all the way here because I am looking forward to that.”
“Ane-ue is definitely a beauty. That dignified beauty most likely wouldn’t lose to the Celsus Maiden as well.”
“In that case, let’s quickly go to have a look. As the victor..” (TL: Uwaki-mono, should be able to search this rather easily
