Episode #200. It’s also a matter of making bad friends.
* * *
By the time the bell that should have signaled the start of the twilight had broken out and the fog that had been rolling over London had disappeared.
There was a man watching the scene with cold eyes.
From masks covering the face to drab cloaks.
Even though he was wearing a costume that seemed to be claiming to be suspicious with his whole body, the man who naturally escaped from the gaze of the people around him muttered inwardly.
‘It was successful.’
Of course, there was no way it could fail.
All of this is the result of the guidance of a great star. Because success was predestined from the beginning.
‘Stupid things.’
That’s why the man kept a cold mocking laugh.
Even the magic lord, obsessed with obsessing over the past and obsessed with eradicating the gloomy time, rushed at it without hesitation.
Even the Londoners who are bursting into cheers without knowing what will happen soon.
It just seemed equally foolish to him.
Why did the Countess Sea Serpent, who had been protecting the British Empire for generations, oppose eradication of the gloomy hour until the very end?
If I had the brain to think about the reason, I wouldn’t have been so happy.
I didn’t know if it was normal.
They are the people after all.
It was because they were a lowly and foolish people, no different from beasts who would reveal their stomachs to anyone as long as they showed a profit right in front of them.
Anyway, thanks to that, the obstacles that stood in my way disappeared and everything went as planned.
“Now all that’s left is to find it and get it.”
The man put his hand in his bosom.
Then, taking out a small bell and placing it in the palm of my hand, I stepped into one of the grandest and most antique buildings in London.
I didn’t have to worry about the gaze.
The twilight time is not only a time when all of London is quiet, and no matter who is there, he will not notice him wearing the ?Hermes’ Invisibility Cloak?.
with my daughter
‘It must have been here.’
Could it be because of that bold step?
Not long after entering the building, he saw the bell ringing and smiled coldly.
Then, following the sound of the bell, I turned my steps.
According to the great star’s foreknowledge, in order to obtain the Seven Arcs, which are dormant here.
But at the end of chasing the sound of bells, the moment I found a secretly hidden secret room.
He couldn’t help but harden.
“Hey, are you here now? It’s pretty late after all the hard work.”
Originally, it was a closed room where there should have been no outsiders for at least half a hundred years.
The moment he saw the figure of a person sitting there, he involuntarily swallowed his breath.
“Why are you here…!”
“Why, why? It’s for the same reason you’re here.”
A black-haired man with cheeky eyes.
Limon laughed.
Then, standing in front of the statue at the center of all the magic circles covering the secret room, she looked at the man with cold eyes.
“The Ghost of the Liberation Brigade.”
One of the final purposes of Limon’s visit to London.
At the same time, he spoke the name of the person behind all this confusion in a cold voice.
“Shall I call you Low Edward?”
The 12 Ghosts of the Liberation Brigade.
Among them, the one who is ranked 10th.
A masked man with the code name Kaiser.
Looking at the faded blonde young man who was to inherit the throne of the British Empire, Limon kept a cold sneer at him.
* * *
Is it really like the specter of the Liberation Brigade?
Or should I say like a prince?
It was a while that I was shaken and stiff.
Soon, Edward, who had a cold expression again, asked in a cold voice as he took off the mask that was covering his face.
“…How did you know who I am?”
“It’s not that great. It’s just the result of simple reasoning.”
“inference? Did you just find out my identity through reasoning?”
“okay.”
Seeing him stiffen his face as if he couldn’t believe it at all, Limon let out a laugh.
And with his arms crossed, he spoke leisurely.
“Honestly, at first I doubted that the magic lord was the ghost of the Liberation Brigade. Because that bastard has done so many things.”
Steady pressure on Rose and even scheming.
Carol, who used any means to get rid of the gloomy fog, was very suspicious just for that.
“But when I thought about it, no matter how much I looked at it, the sword did not fit.”
“Gumri?”
“Hmm what. Try to think of it as style or personality.”
The ghost of the Liberation Brigade that Limon was chasing is a person who has called Claire all the way to London and has never been in contact with her.
To put it mildly, he was a prudent personality. To put it calmly, he was a timid coward.
But would the specter of the Liberation Brigade come to the fore as openly and actively as Carol?
Having lived through beating countless villains, it was very doubtful for Limon, who was good at grasping a nasty personality.
“So I thought about it with weight on the fact that someone was using the magic lord.”
I don’t know if anyone else
It was not a particularly difficult guess for Limon, who had already gone through the precedent of the second heaven.
“And while he has the influence to move the magic lord, the answer comes easily when you think about who will benefit the most if he and the Seven Dragons confront each other.”
“…”
“There is a specter of the Liberation Brigade among the royal family members.”
The Blue Dragon Clan and the Magus Guild, which divide the control of the British Empire into two.
If you turn it upside down, it also means that the influence of the royal family on the British Empire is extremely insignificant.
But what if the Countess Sea Serpent and the Magus Guild confront each other and suffer enormous damage after a conflict?
For the royal family, it is a golden opportunity to regain control of the empire.
“…If only that was the case, my uncle would have been a better suspect?”
“Ah, that guy who says he’s a Robert or a robot? Surely he was suspicious too. First of all, pray for a large supply player.”
The ghosts of the Liberation Brigade are all high-level players.
In that respect, Duke Robert, who is famous as the Great Duke of White, was definitely a prime suspect.
“But the swordsmanship didn’t fit, so did he.”
The problem is that he also didn’t match the culprit that Limon was looking for.
Even though he was insignificant compared to the Blue Dragon Clan and the Magus, he was also a powerful man who had moved the British Empire as a regent.
“So I looked for it according to the sword. Who is the most inconspicuous member of the royal family who can step back and plot this?”
“You mean it was me?”
“okay.”
Limon nodded his head coolly.
And he continued with a cold smile.
“The weak crown prince who is swayed by the regent. But if you put it in reverse, you are in a position to place the blame on the regent no matter what happens.”
Of course, that alone wouldn’t have convinced Limondo that Edward was a specter.
It was Rose who gave such confidence to Limon.
“Besides, when you were little, you were called a genius. He just grew up and became a criminal.”
“…”
“That’s a common story, but it’s a different case if that talent didn’t disappear, but if you became good at hiding yourself.”
Besides that, when Edward was young, he was interested in strengthening the royal power.
Such as the situation in which he secretly instigated a confrontation by walking a tightrope between the Countess Sea Serpent and the Magus Guild by pretending to be weak and indecisive.
Limon chuckled as he recalled the stories Rose had told him after spending the night in the garden.
It was such an easy thing to find.
I couldn’t help but laugh when I thought that I had been wandering around because I didn’t know a few simple pieces of information like this.
Of course, this was a conclusion that Rose, who had detailed information about the royal family, and Limon, who had information about the Liberation Brigade, discussed candidly.
If Rose hadn’t opened up to him and tried to figure everything out on her own, she wouldn’t have figured it out.
“…The source of the information is Count Rose. Anyway, it’s a hindrance to the end.”
After realizing why he was discovered, he clicked his tongue for a while.
Edward glared at Limon with a cold face that lacked any of his usual weak impressions.
“If you knew that far, why did you let the magic lord destroy the London battle scene?”
“Oh that? I noticed your purpose.”
“My purpose?”
“There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Isn’t there only one reason why the ghosts of the Liberation Brigade killed the witch of the 27th line of magic and incited the magic lord to break the London confrontation?”
Limon grinned.
Then, he tapped the statue behind him with his palm.
“Finding the Seven Arcs.”
That moment.
Edward’s expression changed suddenly.
“How did you do that…!”
“Well, it’s about making bad friends.”
Why do outsiders know about the Liberation Brigade’s top secret, the Seven Arcs, that only the 12 ghosts should know about?
Seeing the agitated Edward, Limon laughed maliciously.
In fact, Edward’s real goal was expected from the moment he learned that the Seven Arcs were a type of seal.
If Seven Arcs meant something that was sealed in an existing object, the most likely candidate was a new magic tool like the Dark Violin.
And it was the witches of the 27th line of magic who knew better than anyone where the most valuable new magic tools were located in London.
“During the Demon God War, the Witches of the 27 Lines of Sorcery used divine magic tools collected from all over Europe to make them the center of the London confrontation.”
The London battle system is one of the strongest magic created in the Silver Age.
Because they did not have enough power to resurrect it by themselves, the witches used various divine objects.
It was possible because Europe was devastated by the demon and sacred items, originally strategic goods of each country, flowed into London along with the refugees.
Thanks to that, they were able to revive the London confrontation system, but instead, they could not touch the sacred objects used as the medium of the confrontation system.
Sinmul is the core of the London confrontation world.
Because no one could take it unless the London battle system itself disappeared.
“If there is Seven Arcs among them, there is no reason to stop them from destroying the London showdown. I can save you a lot of trouble.”
Awesome!
Edward gritted his teeth.
The reason why the Countess Sea Serpent was strangely quiet after the incident at the ball.
It was only then that I realized that it was not because I had no power to stop the magic lord, but that they also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity.
One thing you don’t know.
“Even so, how did you find this place before me? Identifying the Seven Arcs is something I couldn’t even do!”
Only 9 sacred objects used in the London confrontation world.
He didn’t even know which of them was the Seven Arcs.
I just came to the first place to investigate the records of the royal family and search for the most likely place.
But how was Limon able to find the sacred objects hidden in the British Museum before he did?
At Edward’s question mixed with resentment and doubt, Limon smiled and shook the smartphone he was holding.
“Mine had radar.”
“…what?”
“So why didn’t you upgrade the model earlier? In this day and age, like the old days, what is a bell? A bell.”
“…”
Seeing Limon treat him as an outdated old man, Edward couldn’t help but feel a tremendous irrationality for some reason.
