Leviathan.
Best hotel in the world.
At the same time, the base of the Black Dragon Clan collects information from each region and oversees the clan’s business.
That’s why the general manager of Leviathan couldn’t be anyone, and in order to be in charge of a particularly important branch, he needed the capacity of a tolerable elder.
from that point of view.
Youin was quite an unusual person.
You could become an elder or take a better branch.
Not only did everyone avoid it, but they even deliberately volunteered for the branch called Hell of the Seven Dragons.
There were even rumors circulating among the Black Dragon Clan that Youin had gone mad because of the magic spell.
Even with that stigma.
Running Leviathan.
Create and maintain information networks.
Helping the Black Dragon clan advance into other businesses, etc.
Youin has been working hard.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was entirely thanks to him that the power of the Black Dragon Clan was established in this country, which was barren for the Seven Dragons.
Of course, the biggest factor was the opening of the Iron Age and the fact that Limon stopped hunting the Seven Dragons.
Even so, Youin was not devalued.
At least among the Black Dragon clan, he had a solid standing.
Especially after Li Qingyu got married to Limon and nearly destroyed the Council of Elders.
He was already regarded as an aide among the clan, even if not formally, as he assisted Li Qingyu in his work.
but the actual party.
Youin wasn’t even happy about it.
He did not show off or use his influence.
Second, I had no intention of doing so because I didn’t have the time to do so right now.
“Is their pursuit still?”
“sorry. I found the place where I stayed yesterday, but after checking, it seems that the location has already changed.”
“Please locate us again as soon as possible. And what happened to the computational trouble?”
“As a result of checking, it was a problem caused by hacking. We are calling in experts to deal with it, but it will take some time.”
“The hacker is… is that you too?”
“I couldn’t pinpoint the location via multiple lines, but it’s very likely.”
“Please hurry up the recovery and strengthen the security of all affiliates. You can hire a shaman if need be.”
“…do you think there will be another hack?”
“There is nothing wrong with being prepared.”
“All right.”
Youin let out a sigh.
After fighting the liberation brigade.
From the economic sanctions of other clans to the establishment of the World Federation.
Through various incidents, this branch continued to be hit with heavy work, and the work was passed on to him intact.
If you weren’t a master class, you would have collapsed already.
After Limon disappeared.
Even more so after the other clans have been putting pressure on them with all sorts of means, and the workload is soaring.
Even so, Yo-in stood firm.
No, I had no choice but to endure.
It was because the princess was right in front of her, who was handling a much more overwhelming workload.
“Princess, I think you should prepare soon.”
“…Is it already time?”
A black-haired girl who read and processed mountains of documents while receiving reports from Youin and giving orders.
Li Qingyu stopped his hand.
Then, putting the fan down, he said calmly.
“Take it in.”
“yes.”
It was right after that that several maids entered quietly.
do new makeup
listen to the clothes
Tidying up your hair, etc.
After the girls, who had finished dressing up in an instant like the first-class customers in charge of Leviathan, quietly bowed their heads and withdrew.
Li Qingyu turned around.
“Then, I’ll ask you to clean up, Youin.”
“I hope you get good results.”
“well. It would be nice for me too.”
with a bitter smile.
Open the door behind you.
Entering the secret room with seven gorgeous seats centered around a round table, she immediately sat down on a chair made of black crystal.
And after wearing glasses.
The moment the button on the chair is pressed.
Wiing.
As light descended from the ceiling, figures rose one by one in the other empty seats.
A gray-haired priest with an expressionless face sat in the white jade chair.
A silver-haired dictator yawning in a sterling silver chair.
In the ruby chair was a pharaoh who was caught smoking a cigarette.
In the sapphire chair is a serious blue-haired female knight.
In the golden chair is a blonde queen with a languid face.
Only the emerald chair was empty.
Looking at the holograms of the princesses who were already filling the other seats, to be exact, reflected in her glasses, Li Qingyu smiled.
“Am I a little late?”
and.
Silence passed.
The actions of Ainsha’s Yekatrice’s Hasneti’s Rose, who keeps silent as if she didn’t hear her words.
No, as if he hadn’t even seen Li Qingyu appear at all, the appearance of not even looking at him made the air in this closed room quiet.
It was a situation where it was doubtful whether only her video and voice were cut off due to a communication failure.
But Li Qingyu knew.
That there is no such thing as communication failure.
So, without panic, she opened her mouth again.
“Yekatrice, I have something to check.”
“….”
“Large-scale hacking is taking place on our affiliates these days. Do you know anything about it?”
Of course, the answer was fixed.
Group hacking of affiliates of the Black Dragon Clan.
No matter how many players there are in the world, there is only one that can do that except for the fairy kingdom.
Because there were only Bahamut and the Russian Khanate with the best technology in mankind.
to her question.
Yekathrice answered simply.
“Haam…”
“….”
“If we had met in person, I would have waited while rubbing my cheek against Ainsha, but the video conference is boring.”
“Don’t give me your cheek. I only talk in my sleep when I sleep.”
“Ah, does that mean you’ll put a lap pillow for me when I sleep?”
“If you go crazy, go to the hospital.”
Yekathrice, the subject of the question, of course.
Even Ainsha, who answers her bluntly.
He was silent for a while at the reaction of the two, who still seemed to have not heard him.
Li Qingyu turned his head to the side.
“I have a question for you too, Rose.”
“What are you talking about?”
“These days, there are people who are rummaging through our clan’s territory as if they are crossing space. Is it related to the Blue Dragon clan?”
“Ah, that’s what you mean.”
Is it really the conscience of the Seven Dragons?
Even while everyone was turning away from her, Rose answered with a faint smile.
“It’s none of your business, Li Qingyu.”
…Yes, he answered.
The answer was no, I just couldn’t hear it.
For the princess of the Seven Dragons, the desire to monopolize territory is an instinct.
Therefore, recklessly invading the territory of another clan was a taboo that should not be committed even more because it is the same princess.
Originally, everyone would have to blame Rose right away.
But at this very moment.
The other princess’s reaction was muted.
From Yekathrice, who is still flirting, to Ainsha, who ignores Hasneti, who only smokes in silence.
Everyone pretended not to hear at all or did something obvious, but they were consistent as if it had nothing to do with it.
It is as if Li Qing-Yue had been silent on all questions about Limon’s whereabouts until now.
‘As expected, today’s meeting of the Seven Dragons must be a bit difficult.’
already expected.
However, at the colder atmosphere than expected, Li Qingyu inadvertently smiled bitterly.
Although the priority has been pushed back by the appearance of the World Federation, the competition with Limon is not yet over.
It was natural for the other princesses to hold hostility towards her, who had been hiding his traces for several months.
It was then.
A proud voice was heard.
“Please refrain from unnecessary chatter. We are not here to be questioned.”
“…That’s right.”
Rest your chin on one hand.
looking at oneself in awe
Looking at Charlotte, who seemed bored, Li Qingyu put on a strange expression.
At first glance, the words seem to criticize her for questioning other princesses.
However, looking at it differently, it sounded like something to stop other princesses from ignoring Li Qingyu and questioning Li Mon.
Is it just because of the mood?
Or is there another reason.
When Li Qingyu was lost in thought.
A light rose in the empty emerald seat, revealing the last princess.
“…everyone seems to have gathered.”
“Welcome.”
“It’s pretty late, Maia?”
“The designated time is still left, so it would be hard to say it’s too late.”
“…”
Li Qingyu smiled again as he saw the princesses welcoming Maia in a different way than he did.
Finally, the Seven Dragons Association began.
And, of course, Maia, who hosted the meeting, was the first to speak.
“Everyone must have wondered why I opened the Chilryong branch this time.”
“huh? Of course, wasn’t that to punish the stray cat who bullied us?”
“no.”
To that cut denial.
Rose made a puzzled expression.
Ainsha also tilted her head slightly.
It’s because they didn’t express it explicitly like Yekathrice, but they also had the same thoughts in their hearts.
looking at them like that
Maia said coldly.
“I’ll start with the point.”
“…?”
“For now, the swordsmith’s infatuation has stabilized.”
right after that.
Everyone’s expressions turned weird.
Only Charlotte kept a languid expression as if there was nothing surprising.
Even Li Qingyu is making complicated expressions, not sure if he is relieved or worried.
Ainsha, who always looked calm except for causing pupil earthquakes thanks to her expressionless face, tilted her head the other way and asked.
“It is questionable. I want to know what you mean by that.”
“Literally.”
“…???”
Ainsha recalled a series of question marks above her head.
It was Yekathrice who had been blinking her eyes to sort things out on her behalf.
“Oh wait. So, you said your brother fell for the coin intoxication? So you’ve been staying and getting treatment in Quetzalcoatl all this time?”
“exactly.”
It was only then that he seemed to realize what that word meant.
Rose asked with a pale face.
“…Are you all right, Limon Swordsman?”
“You said it was stable for now.”
“First of all, doesn’t that mean that the infancy of the main flower hasn’t healed yet!”
“Don’t worry. At least for the time being, he won’t die or run amok.”
“now…!”
do you say that
Rose, who almost inadvertently rebuked Maia, bit her lip and swallowed the words.
And after a short deep breath.
He opened his closed eyes and asked sharply.
“Why did you hide that fact until now?”
“Because it was obvious that if you guys found out that the swordsman had fallen into the intoxication, he would make it impossible for him to focus on treatment.”
“…”
Rose couldn’t bear to deny that fact.
Even now, it was hard to suppress the desire to beat the seven dragons and go find Limon.
If I had known this a few months ago, I would have been able to endure it until now.
Because I couldn’t possibly guess.
Among the silent princesses, knowing that fact themselves, it was Hasneti, who was the most reticent, who spoke first.
“Does revealing that fact mean that I can meet the swordsman now?”
“As a member of the council, yes.”
“Then…”
“Instead, there is something you should know before that.”
“I want to know what else I need to know.”
“About this.”
widely.
Limon’s coin cultivation alone is shocking, so what more do you need to know?
Ainsha, who asked, of course.
The other princesses also made puzzled faces.
He couldn’t understand the meaning of Maia’s gesture of holding out a hand instead of answering.
But after a while.
They couldn’t help but make strange expressions in a different meaning than before.
Maia’s left hand on the table.
It was because it was only then that I saw the emerald ring on that thin, white finger that was not even wearing gloves unlike usual.
“…Hey Maia?”
If it was an ordinary ring.
Maybe that’s what it was.
But carved into that ring.
The dragon pattern intertwined with the sword.
The other princesses, as well as Yekathrice, hesitated for a moment.
As far as she knew, there was only one person in the world who could engrave such a beautiful and delicate engraving on that little ring.
“What is that ring?”
What does it mean that the ring is on Maia’s ring finger?
Even though I already intuition.
It’s like I can’t believe it.
Contrary to her smiling face, she looked directly at Catherine, who asked with eyes without a smile, and the other princesses, who looked at her as heavy as her.
Maia opened her mouth.
“It’s proof that I became a swordsmith’s bride.”
and.
?A silence like death came.
