Chapter 38
38 Ch 14. Amphibious scheme (1)
There was a variable called the Aux and Rudwick raid.
“Khh! This tastes good! ”
The ceremony in Chaplin took place safely.
Especially since Hannah’s been drinking ale for so long,
“You must be the sea man! ”
Daemos, who looks so vulnerable to alcohol, is already admiring it with his balmy face!
“This is real! He keeps talking about the sea! ”
“Compliments!”
“If it’s a compliment, make it look good! ”
“Isn’t it wonderful! ”
But Damos didn’t make fun of Hannah, but he really seemed to regard her as a compliment.
“Damos is a fool, so if you believe he’s right, there is no compromise. Please understand.”
The pobose next to him didn’t seem to be as strong as Damos.
So, just like Damon, let’s talk about it with a big face.
“Povos, you fool! The most powerful man in the world is the sea man! A sailor is strong, tenacious, and has personality! Just like Hannah!”
Damos, we’re going back to work!
“Oh, where did that come from….. ”
That’s no answer.
Hannah shakes her head with excitement as if she gave up.
“But it doesn’t sound wrong, young lady. Unless it’s just a compliment.”
And as Megaella, a cold-faced maid, frowns.
“Shut up, Megaella. ”
Isn’t this what it feels like to be an enemy everywhere?
To her who inhales ale with a bitter heart,
“But why did Damon and Povoss have red faces? ”
Alicia, who became drunk for the first time today, asked.
“Hannah’s fine! ”
“You’re totally fine, too. ”
“Really? Lorelai? ”
Lorelai, who is drinking juice instead of ale, is not drunk, so she can make an accurate judgment.
“Yes, my lady. ”
Lorelai also nods with a smile on her mouth to see if she likes Chaplin’s fascinating atmosphere.
“They’re just weak on alcohol. ”
“But it’s amazing! Damon and Povoss are alike in height and in shape! It’s just a different face. I think there’s a lot like it! ”
I was afraid to drop that horse.
“I’m not an idiot! ”
Povos shouts with a thick face.
“Povos, you bastard! You want to lose a pair of arms! ”
It’s Damon, who’s been talking to me the whole time, just like Loan said to Ludwig.
“You might be a little angry when you’re treated like a sword. ”
Hannah nodded, laughing that she could understand Popos’ feelings.
“How can you not need anything more? ”
“Just say whatever you want! ”
Hugo and Parviti have been smiling brightly.
“Is it because he’s the same guy? It really resembles eggs. ”
Then Hannah looks at Parviti with a curious glance.
“Well, I guess it’s because the skin color is similar. ”
“Is that so? ”
“I don’t know because I didn’t see him. ”
Huhu Parviti smiles and replies kindly.
“Well, it’s completely different from this. ”
Rough, arrogant eggs and sweet parvities were of the opposite nature.
“I made a mistake. You insulted Parviti by saying that you look like him. ”
So it might be that resemblance makes Parvity look rather insulting.
“Anyway, I’m sorry, one more ale! ”
I placed an order like a whale.
“I beg you, too! Parvity!”
Alicia, who may be black, but who has significant qualities when it comes to drinking, lifts an empty glass and says,
“You’re the shareholders. Our ale is pretty nasty. ”
Hugo looked a little surprised when he saw the two girls running.
“So I like it! I thought inland liquor would be weak! ”
“Haha, the Southern Half Elves are fermenting southern fruit juice, so be sure to hear it later! ”
Hugo laughed at Hannah’s cry,
“Hey, boss! Where’s the milk? ”
Busha, protagonist of the Southern Fruit State, shouts with a gritty face.
“That half elf, right? Elf’s liquor, I’m looking forward to it! I didn’t know that such a good place would be so close! ”
Hugo smiled and replied to Hannah, who was just as happy as she had met her home in her heart.
“You can look forward to it! And Busha, the milk must be out of stock. ”
Then, Busha stares at Freya next to him with her face that she can’t help it.
“Then I’ll give you the juice you regret. ”
“Ah, yes! ”
It was enough to get drunk in the atmosphere without drinking.
In the middle of a nod with a pretty Freya,
“But where the hell did Ron and Emilia go? ”
Alicia looks around and asks questions as they continue to be invisible.
“The two of you are in the reception room in the basement because you have something to say about the imperial assassination. ”
Behind the assassination attempt and the man who was stirring up in the Hwang Seong.
And the man behind it is not human.
It had to be an important story that the two of them had to share very quickly.
“Aah.”
Chaplin is the spear of the Philstein family.
The pub above is a disguise, and the reception room below is a real business.
Of course, if you need a place to talk quietly, there’s no place as good as the reception room.
“… but you two are upset, right? ”
I understand the situation.
“What are you talking about for so long? ”
The youngest and perhaps the strongest Sword Master on the continent.
Hannah grumbled when she thought she was behind.
“Loan does not lose! ”
Daimos, drunk, shouted decisively.
“…… What do you lose? ”
“To Emilia’s temptation! ”
She burst into laughter.
“You idiot! I think you all know how to fight! ”
“I’m serious, really. Damos is such an idiot. ”
Then Povos nodded with a serious face.
“You don’t die by one arm….. Isn’t this really cool? ”
And let’s recap the lines that were plugged in today, whether Damon’s gone into his own world or not.
“…… hmm. ”
Hanna shakes her head in excitement that normal conversation is impossible.
“Drink more! ”
Hugo lays down the extra ale he ordered in front of her, and she smiles brightly again.
“I have to!”

“… I never thought I’d miss Rudwick like that. ”
“He turned into a monster, and I didn’t know how to scroll. ”
Loan and Emilia came down to the reception room while the pub upstairs was having a good time.
I didn’t think I’d miss Rudwick so much as a crucial clue to the search for the Ariman Church.
“Too bad, but I can’t help it. The time that’s already passed won’t come back. ”
Especially to console Emilia, who is very sorry.
“…… if you wear this necklace and only go back to today, maybe. ”
He bursts into laughter, saying that using a necklace that crosses time might be possible.
“I wish that were the case. ”
Then Emilia burst into laughter.
“But the necklace will only listen to your wishes when your earnestness reaches the pole. No one can come back in time. ”
And when she explained the necklace,
“But how did you get this necklace? ”
Loan asked a question he should have asked from the beginning.
Where did you get the necklace?
The necklace is an artifact with mysterious power, and it may be related to the Ariman Church if you go to its origins.
“If you look at this necklace, you may be able to gain power against the monsters they serve. ”
Even if it is irrelevant, it can gain as much power as it is a powerful artifact that can resist time.
“… I don’t know. ”
Emilia then brings out a surprising answer.
“Huh?”
How can she not know where the necklace is after four regressions?
“One day someone left me in my bedroom. I didn’t know this necklace had power from the start. It’s just a pretty thing. I wanted to kick it…. ”
“Ahhh……. ”
Ron nods and says he’s not cold because he knows what it is.
Maybe Emilia’s first regression was literally a coincidence.
“But I’ve been looking for it because I’m curious. ”
“About the necklace? ”
“Yeah. He said it was Tatag’s necklace. And I think it was originally in Ig. I couldn’t figure anything out. ”
Loan laughs at me, touching the necklace without knowing it.
“Tatagh’s necklace. Then the egg was looking for this necklace today. ”
I wondered why I hung a necklace as an item to make a necklace.
I just thought that I wanted to take something precious out of pride.
But after hearing this story, I couldn’t easily pass it on.
There was a good chance the egg knew something.
“Maybe the Ig royals know something. About Tatag’s necklace. ”
“To do that, we need to make contact with the egg. ”
“You should.”
“And what else did you find out about Dahak? ”
When I asked Emilia, who remembered the last time she contacted her companions in the north,
“No. I’ve heard a little more about Lorelei. Just according to the legend of the Northern Alteration, the dead will be reborn as a monster called Dahak when they wake up again in the dark. ”
Loan shakes his head and says,
“…… It’s similar to Chad. ”
And the legend of the northern alteration and Chad thought it was a really similar case, and Emilia nodded with a serious face.
“Right? Ludwig was also a mercenary in the Northern War. Obviously, the Ariman Dahark is deeply related to the Church. ”
“I think Friedrich knows quite a bit about that. The Screamer family became a real Miskatonic in the Northern War. ”
“You should also make contact. Friedrich will tell you everything he knows. It’s political, but it’s basically a person who likes to talk. ”
“Maybe it’s a good thing you came to Linguini Academy. Maintaining rapport with two people can be a big advantage for exploration after all. ”
They were two people who were quickly deciding what to do.
“But this time, things are still happening that have not happened before. I’ve never seen Ludwig before…. ”
The problem was that this time was going on differently than scheduled.
“I don’t know if there’s any merit in going back in time. ”
Emilia, who regressed four times in particular, seemed even more confused because all of the familiar patterns were broken.
“Emilia, it’s not like you’re alone right now. You’re not alone. That’s why they’re in the corner, so they’re doing what they’re not doing. ”
And to comfort her like that, she pointed back at the necklace and said,
“Yes….. ”
Emilia is embarrassed, too.
“Like you said, I definitely feel like they’re stuck in Finch more than ever! ”
Rather, he nodded with a bright face, realizing it was a much better situation than before.
“So I’m going to have to wedge it a little bit more here! ”
And she looks like she’s preparing something.
“…. You said you had something to ask me in Chaplin, right? ”
Obviously, Emilia will be willing to borrow the power of the Philistine family in this.
“Yes. I intend to hire the Philistines to protect all the members of the royal family so that there will be no succession quarrels yet. Assassins know best, don’t they? ”
Loan felt strange in his words.
As she said, skilled assassins can be the best bodyguards.
However, this situation….
“If only. ”
“Huh?”
“If the necklace were still with you, what would you have done if it wasn’t for me, but for you alone? ”
Loan asks with a very serious face.
Emilia gazes at Loan as if she were asking such a question. She takes a deep breath and thinks it’s not just a question she’s asking.
“I would have tried to build a force against them. First……. ”
“I prophesied a disaster in the south that would strike a year later and become a saint of the Church of Pomodoro. The Fomorro Church is the greatest enemy of the Ariman Church. ”
In what Loan said with a calm face,
“… Ugh, huh. ”
Emilia, who is perfectly read in her insides, tries to blush her face.
“And when Pomorro was able to protect himself enough with the support of the Church, he was going to call upon the Philistines who could move like their hands and feet in the dark, right? ”
After what Loan pulled out in a row with a cold face,
“Exactly……. I tried to. But instead of you showing up and planning on becoming a Saint, I came to Linguini Academy, and now I’m going to bring the Philstein family back to the center a little earlier. ”
Emilia replied, recalling the fifth regression she did not know.
Maybe her plan actually went forward, and that’s why Loan already knows the course.
And then I’ll give the necklace to Loan.
But…..
“…… why are you so scared of your face? ”
If she had anything to do with it now, it was that Loan’s face was full of life.
Even though he knew he couldn’t hurt himself.
“Ah.”
After that, Ian covers his face with his hands while laughing, saying it was a mistake to show Emilia that look.
“Emilia, how many times has my father been killed in your situation? ”
“If it were William Philstein….. ”
Emilia thought to herself,
“He’s not dead. I’ve given you my successor position safely every time. After that, I don’t know. ”
He replied calmly.
And then Loan paused without saying a word.
“In the time before I came back. ”
“Yes.”
“Two years from now. That’s when my father dies. ”
He said in a calm voice.
“Huh?”
To Emilia, whose eyes were enlarged by surprise.
“My father said that there was something very important that could change the fate of the family. I had to go to the Emperor Bolonez. ”
Loan explained.
“Yes……. ”
“The next landlord said I had to go with him, but I couldn’t go with him in the fall after I got off, and my father, Parvity, and Hans went to Bolognese together. ”
I remember the most horrible memory before the assassination of Emilia!
“After the accident, my father and, of course, Parvity and Hans, everyone died. It was a crazy accident. ”
“Ahhh……. ”
Emilia stares at him with astonishing eyes as she hears about the tragic incident that Loan went through.
“Fallen stone on the way from Pilstein Castle to Bolonez…. ”
This was definitely a suspicious subject.
“It wasn’t magic, it wasn’t an assassin’s machine. It was a senseless accident. Even if the whole family investigated the squadron, there was no answer at all. So the case was closed like that at the time, but if you come to think about it now….. ”
Soon, Loan takes a deep breath.
“A man like Ludwig can do enough. ”
The reporters said that Emilia’s eyes became very large.
“No way….. ”
She doesn’t know the situation, but…
“You must have called your father an Emperor through Chaplin’s window. To power the mighty Philistine assassins. ”
Soon, he reveals the black eyes that he was hiding with his hands.
“That’s when someone found out, and they did that to stop the Philistines from becoming your hands and feet. Just as you and I met in this situation, if the Philstein family were your hands and feet, they would be out of control! ”
It was the ferocious hatred of those who took away the most precious before Emilia.
“…… is that what you mean? ”
Soon, he lowers his hand, which covered his face.
“They’re part of the Philstein family. ”
He turned into an unfathomable face, but his cold anger settled firmly in his eyes.
Traitor!
It was even more intolerable, especially as the last moment of betrayal came to an end.
Emilia is carefully unlucky, thinking that Loan’s black eyes are frightened by the cracks between her fingers.
“Then……. ”
“Leave this to me. ”
Finding and defeating the traitor who drove my father to death!
He also breathed deeply that it was his upbringing.
“Yes, Loan. ”
I don’t know if his time back was more painful than I thought.
If you think that the old Roman Philistine she knew and the current Roman Philistine have become quite different people.
“And I’m sorry……. Because of me….. ”
Perhaps the provider of all the tragedies that Loan has suffered is himself.
She doesn’t know anything about the fifth regression right now, but she is more likely to have done so in context.
I think Emilia should apologize with her head down.
“The guy who did it is bad, you’re not bad. ”
Loan shakes her head with a pale smile.
“…… and I was much worse than you. ”
I killed a good man like this.
I even loved the woman I loved!
Once again, feeling guilty, he laughed bitterly,
“You weren’t a bad person, always. ”
This time, Emilia shakes her head seriously to comfort him.
And the eyes of the two people I met.
“ ……. ”
There was an awkward static in the small reception room.
“…… Ah. ”
Loan and Emilia winked and avoided each other’s eyes.
“…… I have a question. ”
Then Emilia raises her head again and asks.
“…… what is it? ”
Roan also looks at her again with an awkward face.
“How were you and I then…? ”
Let’s ask her with the eyes that she really wants to know.
“That’s….. ”
Loan couldn’t answer easily.
I was ashamed, but I couldn’t talk because the results were too good.
How can I tell you that I killed the man I loved with my hand?
The guilt that I have embraced in my whole life has recharged.
“No, just! Wondering what it was like…! ”
Emilia shakes her head as if she had become serious and didn’t want to ask embarrassing questions.
“…… I love you a lot. ”
And the courageous Loan opened his mouth.
“Huh?”
Emilia who concentrates on her voice and exhausts her ears.
“ ……. ”
However, Loan rarely spoke easily, even if his mouth didn’t fall off easily.
Headaches!
In fact, when we were lovers, it was just a shy boy and girl relationship.
It would be true that they naturally liked each other.
So even then, I never said I love or like it.
I couldn’t do it even if I wanted to.
I was too embarrassed to do that.
And it seemed the same now that I was half a hundred.
“What is it? Huh? ”
Emilia, who felt ashamed of Loan, quickly became a playful face.
I was in a very scary face just now, and I’m ashamed of you!
I thought I’d let him feel free, and when the nasty princess, who likes to mess around, comes up with his face,
“Now, wait! You’re so close!”
Loan, who was amazed, retreated.
“I can’t hear you because it’s noisy upstairs! I can hear you!”
I can’t wait to talk about Sogonzo!
I was amazed by Emilia’s playful appearance, but it was Loan.
“… Ugh, hmm. ”
It was also true that his voice, which he was talking about, was too small.
“That……. ”
And he drenched his dry lips with a saliva and looked embarrassed.
‘I liked you a lot. ’
I never thought it would be so hard to say this!
“What do you mean, a man is so moody! ”
So now I’m really curious, and Emilia, who is having fun making fun of Loan, comes closer and plays even more.
It was almost like coming up on a table, but I was surprised to learn it was a joke.
“You, too close! ”
“If you don’t get close, you won’t hear! ”
Looking at her enjoying the situation, Loan bursts into laughter.
“…… I love you. ”
Choke!
It was that moment.
“Loan!”
The door to the reception room that was closed was opened.
“Huh?”
I saw Damos blushing with drunkenness.
“Damos! What if I interrupt you two from spending a lot of time together? So unpopular! ”
Next to him was a frown-faced povoss who ran away.
“Master?”
Parvities with big eyes,
“Did you have fun here with the rest of your work? ”
Busha looked very nervous.
“Look at this! I think Emilia was really doing something! ”
And with Ale in one hand and Hannah in the back!
“Lo, did Emilia kill Loan?! ”
Alicia seemed to be behind them, too.
“Where! Where! ”
I can’t see well because I’m the one behind it. I see red hair jumping. It’s gone.
“As I expected, Emilia was seducing Roan! I didn’t tell you! It’s dangerous!”
As soon as Damon, who seemed to be leading everyone, raised his voice,
“… I have nothing to say to you, Princess. ”
Fobos shakes his head, saying he won’t be able to side with me because it’s a field detector.
“No, that’s it! ”
Emilia blushes her face and blushes as if she had been greatly embarrassed by the fact that she had seduced Loan.
“Loan, I will save you! ”
A drunkard, Damos, who knew it or not, stumbled toward them.
“…… Master. ”
“Why can’t the average person refuse? You idiot!”
Farvitina Busha has a sad face as if she didn’t resist the power of Emilia.
“…… uh. ”
The other thing is, in the interpretation of two people who seem to have struck down and abused power,
“That’s not it! ”
Emilia becomes more embarrassed.
“Guys! There seems to be a huge misunderstanding! ”
She tried to explain, but…
“A gentle cat goes up to the octopus first……. ”
“You can’t pretend like you’re doing business together! Let’s play fair!”
“That’s right! That’s not bad! Emilia!”
It did not seem to be the situation I had already heard the explanation.
After Hannah, let’s raise our voice to Alicia that it’s difficult.
“… No, it’s not like that! You got to be kidding me! ”
Emilia, who became morally troubled by drowsiness after one prank, looks very embarrassed.
“Loan!”
And she’s so unfair, she sends an eye to Ron to tell him something.
“You wouldn’t be tempted, Loan! ”
Immediately, Damon, who came to him, shouted with a serious face.
“You’re a Sword Master! ”
Loan seemed to be a admirer to Damos.
Sword Master bursts into laughter, believing that he should be able to overcome everything.
I was in a real crisis just now.
Within a week, he said,
‘Help me, Loan! ’
I shrug, looking at Emilia asking for an explanation.
“….. nothing big happened, but it was really dangerous. ”
