160 Ralphs' Mourning.

When Ishtarika was making a scene.

In Heim at the same time zone, it was an uncomparable noise to Ishtarika.

The location is the Great Hall of Heim Castle.

There are many aristocrats and knights gathered there, and in the centre of it is a huge coffin of lavish construction.

Marble floors are covered with carpets filled with golden threads, and the narrow spots are lit with light.

It is the grand hall of luxurious Royal Haim pride, which manifests the wealth of Haim.

"... oh, why, why does my child look like this... Huh!

It was Ralph who cried down.

Since only the body was left from the neck to the top, the lower part was clothed on the wooden carved body and lay in the coffin.

Ralph weeps at the appearance of his changed son without even caring for his eyes.

"Brother up... Brother up...!

On the other side of Ralph, Tiggle weeps as well.

The Second Prince and Tiggle are not particularly close, but that being said, they are family.

I've lived with him before, so I couldn't help but cry like this.

"Oh, God! What have we done...! Why did you do this to my royal family?

I looked up to heaven and spoke a grudge against God.

Ralph, who had a tyrannical attitude towards Ishtalika, could also just grieve if his son died like this.

"Your Majesty, Master Logus is here."

I've never had a harder time speaking up.

One knight, however, speaks to Ralph and tells him of Logus' arrival.

Ralph feels reliable about the information that Logus also said his mother was murdered, but thus took him to the castle.

"Let it pass quickly! Logus, where is Logus?

Hearing Ralph's cry, Logus rushes under Ralph without worrying about you.

"... it's late. Sire."

"Ooh, ooh... Logus! Well done, well done. You're here... Huh!

When Ralph welcomes Logus, he pushes his back and makes him head in front of the Second Prince's coffin.

Logus also looked so tired that there was no more, but with Ralph's backing, he moved on to the second prince.

"It's been a while.... Oh, Your Highness still seems to look as Rin as His Majesty does today..."

"Oh yeah......! Even so, my child is not in this world! Why, why did this happen... Huh!

Ralph would never look like this.

Anyway, instead of showing a crying face, I tried to reach Logus and leaked a whimper.

Logus hugs Ralph so hard and shares his feelings of sadness.

"Is it Ishtarika? Ishtalika killed my brother......!?

Tiggle hits the ground hard and leaks a grudge against Ishtalika about the incident during the talks.

But Logus calmly denied it.

"Your Highness. It is not Ishtarika. Anyway, they won't use these troublesome means. … someone on this continent killed our family"

While Logus is calm, his expression hides the emotions of tiredness, anger, and sadness.

"Why! Why are you after us!

"... I don't know"

He eats up his teeth and sees Tiggle with his crying eyes.

Even Logus couldn't tell. You don't have to do this and buy Heim's wrath.

If we do that, at once, the continent will enter an era of war.

Then there is no stronger country than Heim.

"Your Majesty, our knights have also used it and are doing everything in their power to search for the killer"

"Logus... after all, your Lord is a man more reliable than anyone else...!

"It's an extra honor for me. … but you have to decide one thing"

As the nails feed into the skin, Logus cages his strength in his hands.

Then he gives a hateful look, like he has never shown before, and says the following:

"If that was the crime of another country. How do we respond to that country?"

What an answer.

That was the same thing with Logus, but Logus dared ask Ralph.

"Let it be decided! Destroy it and let it meet the same eyes as our family!

Hitting his hands hard on both shoulders of Logus, Ralph stares straight at Logus.

I heard that, and Logus nodded as he was convinced.

"That's right. We, Heim, need to hunt this killer down everywhere and end it thoroughly."

"-... yes, you're right...!

When Tiggle also rises, he agrees with Logus' words.

"Your Majesty. Now is the time to take charge of this me. Let's look all over the continent and see if we can find out who did it."

Logus lost his mother, Ralph lost his son, and Tiggle lost his brother.

When the three of them share their feelings, Ralph nods strongly against Logus.

"- Logus! Let the Lord take care of everything! I'll leave all command of the army to you. So... please. My child's thoughtlessness, my family's thoughtlessness...!

Under the king's word, command of the army is delegated to General Logus.

"I'll take care of it. Always let our vengeance be fulfilled… let us die."

Thus, Logus decides one thing for his heart.

He decided to look all over the continent to catch the killer at all costs.

Inside the castle, not only martial officers like Logus, but also the civilians were rushing around.

And Elena and Harley are among them, gathering information about the deceased nobility, among other things.

"Dear Elena. Investigations into each aristocrat have been completed. After all, there appears to have been no damage other than the body sent to the castle."

"Okay. Okay, so I'm going to need you to go around and call me like that."

"I'm in awe"

Just because a nobleman is assassinated is a huge disturbance.

Even so, this time he was assassinated not only by royalty, but even by a man of the Grand General's house.

The impact it has had is immeasurable, and Elena is prepared to stay up all night for a few days.

If we think about what lies ahead, it's going to be a commotion we don't even want to imagine, but now we need to clean it up from the immediate problems.

Elena handled the work one after the other, even as she gave instructions.

- Well, the next job...

Having finished giving instructions, Elena tried to look through the contact she had accumulated at her desk.

But since then, a civilian has rushed in in in a hurry.

"E...... Dear Elena!

I am out of breath and sweating on my forehead.

Today is a day I can't help but panic, but nevertheless the face of the civilian who came was overshadowed by greater tension.

"Take it easy. What's the matter with you?

Only Elena treats her calmly.

If I lose my composure here to Elena, that's the worst I can do.

"Also, sorry! But Master Logus... Huh!

"... what happened to Lord Logus?

Logus also lost his real mother.

I wonder if you're losing any calm, and I listen.

"We've decided to send an armed fact-finding team to Rockdam and Birdland! He said he was leaving this evening!

When I heard that, Elena stood up with a rattling noise.

"Ugh, you're lying...? Where did you hear that from?

"The source is from the knight, but the knight was also ordered to do so directly by Master Logus!

A knight doesn't lie about that.

If it's false to say that Logus ordered you to do it, it's not strange to be decapitated.

Then again, I guess Logus' determination is true.

"But you're not sending me to Euro..."

"That would be the right answer. Besides, Master Logus also said that it was not Ishtarika's crime, so I was wondering if Ishtarika would be allowed to do something that would strip her of her fangs."

"So you're right. Ishtarika doesn't have the advantage of doing this.... but"

... Although I speak with the investigation team, if you change your mind, it's military dispatch.

No matter how powerful Haim is, it doesn't necessarily mean that countries won't defy it.

Without proof, even if they asked me to do an investigation, that's not what they said.

Elena also guessed.

I'm sure this is when the situation on the continent changes dramatically.

That's fine if we find the killer soon, but that's clearly unlikely.

Then, over time, the word "war" approaches.

"Ha... What the hell is going on, if you think you're back from the talks, what the hell is this situation..."

Elena holding her head and thinking about the restlessness here these days.

"Did he say anything else?

"... it is true that Euro is to be sent a letter. Anything you don't know… when I asked, I put it in my ear."

"It depends on how you ask and how you deal with it....... ok. If you're sending a letter to Euro, I'll take that. I'll prepare the contents, too. Would you mind telling Lord Logus that?

In case it wasn't seen as hostile, Elena decided to do the job herself.

You have to schedule a few days if you're going to cross to Euro, but if you're an Istarian opponent, this is a trivial story.

"I'm in awe. Okay, I'll tell him right away."

"Please."

Hearing Elena's words, the clerk rushes out of the office.

Why don't we have a light meeting with Logus later, and then we'll decide on the document?

I've got one more job, but I appreciate it didn't happen where I don't know much about it.

"... punishment, I wonder"

against Olivia and Ain. And punishment for the royal family and the Roundheart family.

If these disturbances continue, Elena will also think about it.

"I felt painful enough at the meeting, but maybe God didn't forgive me"

Elena's mental condition also continues to drain as much as she thinks about the unrealistic story of heavenly punishment.

That being said, I can't tell you this even if my mouth is torn in front of Ralph and the others.

"When it comes to war, many people lose their lives. At any rate, that must be avoided…"
