10 The Truth, What I Didn'T Know.

The Kingdom of Heim is the southernmost of the continents.

Because it is not a continent with high temperatures and humidity, it is never difficult to spend, rather it is a relatively comfortable area.

Haim has made most of the southern half of the continent a national land, and one of the top powers on the continent.

In addition, the size of the country is unbeatable, and within the continent the military power is pulled out more than the other countries by one or two heads.

There are three other countries besides Heim on the continent, but it was no exaggeration to be king of the continent, both in fame and in fame.

North of Haim is the trade city of Birdland.

Located north of Heim, the country lies in the middle of the continent and is therefore commonly used by merchants and adventurers across countries. As a result, you can see many of the newest and most varied items on the continent.

Originally, when all the countries of the continent were at war, it was a region that established itself as a neutral zone and signed a truce or something.

Birdland is a neutral region of the continent, not a nation.

It becomes a big merchant to have a high voice in a trading city.

Because maintaining security in Birdland and the damage caused by demons depend on the Alliance's adventurers, and the costs of providing assistance to adventurers and policing are covered by the merchants' taxes.

Basically, the de facto monarch becomes the Merchant Guild because the Merchant Guild is involved in what happens and what the person responsible needs to do.

Rockdam Republic is east of Birdland and northeast of Haim.

In a country where the Head of State is to be determined in elections in accordance with the law, the electorate becomes a so-called nobleman with a title. The country has a site area of about half of the northern half of the continent, followed by Heim, a country with vast premises.

The more I mention military power, the more I can bear for a month, assuming I wage total war with Heim.

There is nothing notable to be honest with because it is never weak but not strong.

Areas where agriculture flourishes using large plots of land.

And the last to be mentioned is the Principality of Euro.

The location will be the upper-left region of the continent. It's northwest from Heim and west from Birdland.

Although it is said to be the third largest land on the continent, the site area will be 2/3 the size of the Rockdam Republic and quite small.

In a nation with an excellent army for horseback riding, combat on horseback is so hand-worked that it does not allow other followers on the continent.

However, since the population is never large, it cannot be said that the size of the army is large.

Unofficially to General Logus of Heim, there are so fierce as to soil him in a duel.

"(… and did a long study review)"

No country could have possessed such a huge ship, because, in terms of military power at all, there is no better country on this continent than Heim.

"(The ship was guided but boarded as it was. The doubts don't go away)"

What surprised me when I came in was the luxury hotel of my previous life, which I remember mostly.

Beautifully laid carpet with a simple but high quality interior.

Something smells good.

"Oh, I wonder what's wrong, Ein?

"Mother... what is it"

"It's okay, you'll be in my room soon... then I'll talk to you, won't I?

Then I'll be waiting for you.

They can finally explain.

Starting from the disturbance of the ring, I heard a word like "princess"... from there on the boat. Already on the sea.

I'm giving up thinking beyond the realm of what I don't know already.

"Hey, Chris."

"Ha."

Chris... a beautiful female knight who spoke of a princess or something before boarding the ship and said she was not on our side.

Your mother talks to that Chris.

"For now, what explanation do you need?

"It's all true. Perhaps if we didn't ask, when we got home, they'd dig for roots and leaves."

"Well, can we just see what happened today or something? Me and Ein are tired, Ein? Are you hungry?

It's unusual for your mother to dew her tired face.

Even if it was in front of my fathers, I never did that...

Looks relaxed to me.

"Well... if you want some snacks and drinks"

"Right. I'll ask for the same thing."

"Ha! Tell your servants."

"Yes, sir."

Mr. Chris commands the other knights.

The ordered knight then withdrew from the occasion with sophisticated thanks and movement.

"You can have something delicious, Ein."

"Looking forward to it"

After a short walk into the ship, Ain and the others arrive in what they think is the purpose.

There was a large door there, and the door was a beautifully designed, beautiful door with beautiful tall wood so much that it would be as much as 5m.

"Sorry for moving you around so long"

"It's okay. This is the one I called so suddenly... right?

Here's what Chris apologized for.

The expression doesn't feel like a social dictionary at all, and he looks purely sorry.

"Come on in, Ein wants you to sit down too"

"As far as I'm concerned, it's time for your mother to take a break."

"Well... hehe, let's both sit down and take our time"

"Your Majesty would be delighted to have such a fine son from…"

"Mr. Chris? Something... did I tell you?

"No, it's nothing, go ahead."

I heard some disturbing words, but they cloud it and guide me inside.

The space being spread out inside was made of white marble-like material on which lay a thick, soft and beautiful pattern woven green carpet.

The walls are decorated with some paintings, and on the high ceilings this is another large chandelier.

The furniture seemed to be made of wood similar to the door and very beautiful, the luxurious impression was somewhere reassuring.

"Ain, stay here"

Olivia invited Ein to a large, luxurious white sofa near the center of the room.

That's how I let him sit next to me about Ain.

"Excuse me. We brought you a drink first."

I sat down and took a couple of breaths...... and when I calmed down I knocked on the door and the maid came in.

"(What brings you in at this perfect time, Sarge?)"

Ein was a little surprised, as such perfection was never felt even in the Grand Duke's residence, where he was until about evening.

"What did you bring me?

This way, of course.

That's what I said and poured out was an orange yellow drink.

Who could have smelled like a nostalgic apple?

"... apple juice, it's been a really long time. Thanks, looks like you could really relax. You can drink Ain, too, right? Yes, please."

"I'll have it!

"(Apple, it's like an apple already, I'm sure.

...... yeah. It tastes exactly like apples, but it has a sweet, intense flavour that makes it feel more luxurious) "

"Well, yummy?

"Yes, I think I like this."

"That's good. You can drink a lot from now on, right?

"Are we going to...? Speaking of Mother."

I moistened my throat, and I took a breath.

Ein thinks, is it time for an explanation, Mother? … and.

"Oh... thank you for waiting, Father!

It was Grand Duke Augusto who came into the room out of breath...... Grand Duke Graf Augusto is his only son, Harley.

The Grand Duke of Augusto was unusual for his position as Grand Duke and only married one wife.

Now neither that wife, who had already been preceded, was blessed with a child, and one son, finally born, was this Harley.

Today was the revelation of Reel, the long-awaited eldest son for Harley's second child.

As a host's home job and as a revelation, I had so many things to do that I was finally able to show my face a few hours after Graf called me in.

"It's late, Father."

... Nor can Krone, who is usually firmly in bed, sleep when it comes to her first lover and the woman she admires, and she has refrained from being by the Grand Duke of Augusto ever since she received the report of her estrangement.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Krone... but it's time to go to bed."

Harley, who came at me out of breath, offered him Alfred a cup of tea, and Harley receives it.

"Sorry, Harley. Just let Krone hear it today."

"I hope that's what your father says. So can I ask you some flow?

Drink a sip of tea and moisten your throat.

For Harley, and ever since my mother preceded me, the words of my father, who raised himself splendidly, are strong.

If my father wanted to, he would admit it honestly.

"You should talk in a little order."

"Please"

Harley agrees with the words of Grand Duke Augusto.

"I can't go into the details because I didn't hear it from him, but after our party today... the hosting of the night club was Viscount Lance"

"I know you. We have been contacted in advance and have had meetings, including information, etc."

And Count Roundhart accompanied him.

"We heard that could happen, too, so we know that."

The Grand Duke thinks.

Does Harley have a report on the situation from the beginning?

Then wouldn't it have been easy for you, as Count, to tell your wife that? and.

"Hmm... but Lord Olivia asked the service this way. Where's your husband? and"

"That's my first ear."

"I guess so. I asked about the separation, and then I asked."

"I'm sorry to bother you."

"I don't mind. It was an important party for Reel."

I'm afraid, and Harley lowers his head gently.

"It's easy to deduce. Count Roundhart, or Lord Alma of the Second Lady, intentionally informs us about night clubs, etc. … not only that, but also about the information that there is one child attending the party I ordered. I mean, we didn't both talk intentionally."

"What a... Sure, as the next successor to Roundheart, it was in my ear that the second son was nominated, but this is too pitiful"

"I hear as many similar stories as I can, I can't blame this much... but"

"Does that mean you got separated?"

Hearing Grand Duke Augusto's reasoning, Harley is convinced.

Krone, who had kept his mouth shut so far, was sipping tea because it was information he already knew, and watching the star crystal Ein had given him.

"Indeed, let the remoteness of the Count family be a major event even as a social community. But is there anything you can do to get me to this point?"

"Explain it from here."

Correct your home and listen to it.

"Involving the origins of Lord Olivia"

"Are you from? According to what I was hearing, my wife received a fallen aristocratic maid from another country."

"That's not right. It's not that easy... as the next successor to the Roundhart family, Lord Olivia decided not to reveal the truth until the time when it seemed okay to spread the word."

When I heard the information I didn't know, Krone listened to you and concentrated.

"... is that enough to need to be hidden on a country-by-country basis, Grandpa"

"Excuse me, but I agree, Father."

Two parents and children expose their doubts.

That should be it, too.

Because you don't have to go out of your way to hide the truth and publish it as fallen, etc., at all.

"But... I'm worried about you! What's so loud about being Ain's wife and being noble?"

Seeing the unusual tense atmosphere of the Archduke Augusto, Krone puts it in his mouth like this.

The face of Grand Duke Augusto, who usually smiles at me, becomes all the more bitter.

"Krone, what are you talking about? I haven't heard anything..."

Harley, unaware of any circumstances, such as Krone's feelings for Ein at all, asks his daughter what she is saying.

"I'll explain that to you later, Harley. And... right, Krone."

It was also during the bundle that Krone appeased when he saw Grand Duke Augusto finally having a slightly softer look.

"... may not be good enough"

"Grandpa...?

When I saw the Grand Duke with an equally hard look, Krone also had a hard look.

"Harley, Krone. Do you have any idea what's going on on on our continent?

"I don't know to what extent that would be a story, if it was from a ceasefire 50 years ago"

From the wars that have spanned the entire continent in the past, all four countries are now ostensibly at peace, but what happens next was completely opaque, the Grand Duke of Augusto said.

"That's fine. Culture has always been the same wherever you go… technology has advanced and grown."

"... yeah, I think so too"

Not that I've seen it with my eyes, but Harley, who has learned history properly, unlike the past, had a firm understanding of how well the present has evolved into a privileged environment.

"The harbour town Round Heart, a continent at a distance of about two days from there...... is there any way you don't know?

The continent the Grand Duke of Augusto speaks of, it is not this continent where there is the Kingdom of Heim, etc., but the one beyond the sea.

Not like here. There is a name on that continent, and the name is Ishtal, and the continent Ishtal.

"Is it Ishtal...... it can't be forgotten. Even those of us who have gained strength 50 years after the war will not be opponents... no, I was wondering if we boast enough culture, strength, and skill to reach our feet"

The reason Harley can't forget, that's because Harley studied at Ishtal on the Continent when he was a teenager.

He saw it then, to culture, to the strength of people, to the refinement of weapons… and to the size of many knights.

"Ishtal. There's only one country on the continent, right?

Krone asks this of course to his father and the Grand Duke because he has never been there.

"The continent itself may be referred to as a country. Without calling it Continental Ishtal, it's more common to call it a country name. The name of that country is Ishtarika...... the united state Ishtarika"

Ishtal's continent is huge enough to be roughly two to three times larger than it is here.

There is only one country there, that is the united state Ishtarika.

About 500 years ago, heroes dominated and built a continent.

At the time, hundreds of small countries seemed to exist, all of which were united and put together as one nation.

"There are also many different races here. A demon with knowledge... you think the demon tribe is recognized and living as a people"

What Krone means is that it concerns Ishtarika.

There are also many species in Ishtarika like spiritual species such as elves, dwarves and dry ads.

"Krone seems to be studying a lot."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"So why did Ishtarika come out?

Grand Duke Augusto sweats on his forehead.

Harley, who had never seen my father such a nervous figure, and Krone, who had never seen my grandfather such a human figure, were both quietly surprised.

"The present king of Ishtarika, Silvard von Ishtarika... be the third son of that one, two daughters"

Krone looked like he hadn't grasped a few guidelines on what the Grand Duke was talking about yet, but Harley understood.

I started to understand.

At the same time, Harley sweats on his forehead, little by little... little by little, his breath gets rough.

"" Former "Throne Inheritance Third...... Olivia von Ishtarika. That's Lord Olivia... Olivia's true name."

"Maybe I'm not good enough."

My grandfather, Grand Duke Augusto, had just said this, and Krone understood it all now that he had taken it the exact opposite way.
