Reincarnated into a Game As the Hero’s Friend

Chapter 178.1

Chapter 178.1

After a few reports and suggestions, His Highness the Crown Prince left the storeroom first, as he needed to appear in public at a later time. Meanwhile, I would be waiting in the storeroom for a while, trying to clear my head a little.

I sat down on a chair, put my feet up on the desk, and dove into a sea of thoughts.

First, todays major information was related to the previous generation of heroes. The loss of the heroes, the standard-bearers of the unification of mankind, ushered in the age of war, or rather, a turbulent age. And if the people of Weinzierl (Royal family) were involved in this, it would be impossible to leak this information to the outside world.

But even if that were the case, I was not sure why Juliane-samas cemetery was hidden from the public. She was a member of the royal ancestral family, so I put sama in her name. I wondered if we had misunderstood something. But I lacked the information regarding this, so lets put this aside for now while not forgetting the feeling of awkwardness in how I put formalities in her name.

In the pre-medieval and early modern period, information manipulation was much easier to do, whether intentionally or not.

After all, accurate records could be lost or confused with anecdotes of other people during turbulent times, and in that sense, it would not be surprising if there was deliberate manipulation of information in this world.

However, to be honest, it did not matter how Weinzierls ancestors treated the heroes, at least as long as the current Royal Family didnt try to harm Mazell.

There was no such thing as a pure Royal Family in the first place. From the enemys point of view, even the crown prince, His Royal Highness Hubertus, was black-hearted enough. No, really, I didnt want to make that man my enemy.

I had always wondered why the Demon Army was putting so much effort into taking over the Royal Capital.

When I heard about todays information, I wondered for a moment if Juliane-samas cemetery was the Demon Armys objective. But if that was the case, then they would have already stolen everything from the tomb when they infiltrated the capital. They didnt need to take over the capital for it. In other words, the tomb was not relevant at all, or they didnt know about it.

I still felt like I was missing a few pieces of the puzzle.

I left the storeroom after some time had passed while I was thinking about this and that. Every time I wondered what would happen if I broke this security medal.

(T/N: Security medal wasnt explained here, so I assume it was the one which was needed to enter the hidden library.)

Id like to try it just out of curiosity, but it would be a joke if it was a lethal trap, so I wont do it.

I returned to the office and met Neurath and Schunzel, explaining briefly about Sir Eikstedts case and other matters, and decided to leave for the day.

With the image of a company man from my previous life, I wondered if this was the right thing to do, but I suppose it was okay, since there could be nobles who were just playing around. I almost forgot that I was still a student.

Before leaving the palace, a messenger was sent to Zeaverts house to arrange for Lily to ride home in a carriage, and we traveled on horseback to the front of the Marquis Schramm house. There was no problem in this area of the noble district, because these areas were part of the routes that horses were allowed to pass through.

However, I had to deal with passersby who knew me on the way, pointing at me and occasionally thanking me. Fortunately, there were no high ranking aristocrats, so I only gave them a light bow. Smiling and waving back to people suited the Hero Mazell more than me.

Its Welner von Zeavert. May I ask how Marquises tea party is going?

Please wait a moment, I will check.

When we arrived near the Marquiss residence, we dismounted our horses and then approached the gatekeepers to ask about the situation inside. Asking if the event had finished would sound like a request for an early termination, so it was good manners to ask about the status of the event instead.

The carriage had not arrived yet, though. There was certainly no need to hurry, I thought, and then I saw Lily and the Marquis Schramm from the back, andwell, what was the Marquis himself doing here?

The head of the family usually sees off guests when the other party was of equal to higher rank, and I didnt expect the Marquis to be at the mansion in spite of the Earl Gamrich matter. Or was it because of that case that he was here on alert?
