Since it's going to take some time, I'm going to use the repeater I set up in Sailor-sama's territory to contact my friends. But when I activated it, Goddess was able to interrupt the communication.

　Oh, God.
　I'm not even allowed to contact my friends........

I'm sorry to interrupt you, Ryota. I'm sorry to interrupt you. The mines have already chased down the polly god with the mines, but we still lacked the final push. But after analyzing the information from the maze, we found out that the Queen of bugs was killed in the Central Plains.

"....the remains of the pollyanna queen or the miasma of the maze will be discovered as certain evidence... ...god of bugs... contemplate... the central plains... and see if you can find them? ....

　I understand that you are in a hurry to get to the final stage, but it's still too far away, and we're in too much of a hurry to interrupt you... And how are we supposed to find the site of the decisive battle when there is no clear documentation on the Central Plains?

　But, well, it's a desperate request from the Goddess.
　Even though I know it's reckless, I can't do it rashly.
　Oh well, I'll just do what I have to do.

I'll do my best to look for you, but I can't guarantee that I'll find you. But I can't guarantee you that I'll find it, okay?

　The cooperation of the Mushi God is essential to cover up the incident. However, the Central Plains are too large and there are too few clues. It's necessary to remind them that excessive expectations in this kind of case are the source of trouble, and that it depends on luck.

"I know it's reckless, but I won't blame you if you can't find it. I'm just grateful that Ryota is looking for me.

"....an unreasonable request for any investigation other than that of the Ares Continent with a reward for undiscovered items...

　Sometimes she has some problematic behavior, but basically she is a gentle goddess. I haven't forgotten how much I owe her for picking me up, so please don't worry.

　And so the interrupt communication ended.
　This time I connected with my friends.

I'm sorry to be short on time, but I'll be late because of Sailor-sama's involvement. Also, the Goddess has asked me to go to the Central Plains. I want you to change your position to the western border exit on the plainside. And also ......... How is everyone doing?

　It's partly because I'm genuinely worried, but I've been missing everyone's voice terribly lately. It's good that our relationship is good, but too much is bad. If I had to go back to Japan suddenly, I might not be able to go to work because I will miss you.

'Everyone has just regained their spirits. Please don't worry about changing your hiding place.

　It's a short greeting, but I address them one by one. That cheered me up a bit too. These things are important, but right now I want to finish my work as an individual rather than as the leader of a group and get back to my armored car as soon as possible!


After the banquet

　The feast was successfully completed and an apology was obtained from all the surrounding nobles. The other party also wanted a chance for reconciliation, so it worked out terrifyingly well. I'd say the celebration was a great success for the reconciliation effort.

　Incidentally, I was the ruthless villain, and for some reason, Sailor-sama had been protecting other nobles until now, and they were united with the nobles.

　Later, Dominic-san confided in me that it was a ruse by the vassals and he kept apologizing incessantly. Dominic-san didn't know this, and I can't blame him too strongly.

　However, there are some things that can't be left out. A part of the nobles have misunderstood Viville as a cruel and violent dragon. I can't forgive them for this, no matter how much they apologize.

　So I asked the vassals to gather together after the feast, [Viville-sama is a very gentle dragon. Please definitely clear up the misunderstanding before the next time you come. If you can't do so I will just tell the priest of Tet's priests that they are the vassals].

　They all seemed to be more terrifying than death, and they promised me with certainty.

''Ryota-sama, we have caused you trouble in the affairs of your family. I will repay you for your kindness. Also, I have a letter from King Paul for you.

　The representative of the vassals handed me a letter with words of thanks. 　Oh well I'm too tired to get angry anymore. Let's check the contents and get back to our friends as soon as possible.


The contents of the letter

　It turned out to be very unpleasant.
　When I was explaining to my uncle why I didn't touch Carina, he inadvertently asked me about it.

　Then, [Master Paul. When you asked me to join your side room, you whispered your love to me all day and night. So I too was happy about the match-up, if he was the one, but that was all a lie...] and then he started crying!

　A few years ago, I was in the army and my only female interest was in prostitutes.
　I have no idea how to appease a young girl!
　And yet, he even said he was going to divorce her and return to the country...

　Now me and my uncle are doing our best to plead our case to Carina, but we're outnumbered and only stalling. There's nothing more I can do on my own. Please Ryota, come back to reinforcements ASAP!　I'll thank you as much as I can, and as your benefactor, I'm sure you'll be able to round up Carina if you talk to me!

above-mentioned

　What is this? It's free nolocaine!
　Three and a half lines from my wife, if you're serious, more inorganic!
　I can't do it....


Still unable to ignore it, I eventually arranged for flying dragon mercenaries

　After that, the retainer, Dominic, was very reluctant to tell me that he and all of his vassals would definitely repay me for my kindness. But after being swept up in so many things, I'm exhausted and now I just want to go home to everyone.

　But the flying dragon mercenary didn't show up, and for some reason Viville came in the form of a dragon instead. And he's very upset about it.

　Shit, did you get a rumor about a violent dragon?

"Ryou, I heard that you rode the flying dragon despite the fact that you have a great ally in me.　I'm going to have you explain it to my satisfaction!

　I'm glad it's not a rumor about a tyrannical dragon, but somehow the situation seems more troublesome than that... is that something to be angry about?　And he's even got a saddle on his back, and you want me to ride the Viville back?

'Not a thought or anything, Vi is a busy dragon councilor. There's no way he's going to call me out on my personal move.

　If we ride around in a giant dragon... there's gonna be chaos everywhere!　Moo! This boy's point of anger is difficult to predict, and the old man is troubled. Maybe it's impossible for a person to understand a dragon, the foundation....

But of course I knew that you were concerned. I was just checking it out, and I'm used to being a senator, so I'm not so busy and... Anyway, Ryo smells too much water!　You should at least ask him if he's not busy!　I'll take you home!

　Viville seemed to have grown up, and she couldn't get away with just talking.
　So he was taken for a ride on his own and flew super low to be inconspicuous.
　It's scarier than a screaming machine.

But what are you doing in a hurry to the royal castle of the southern knight country?

　I'm used to flying low by now.
　Now that we're in flight, we're chatting on an ally communication.　

''Ah, interceding in a marital dispute. After that, we'll search for the remains of the pollies' base in the Central Plains.

　Even in flight, he talks calmly, and I think his fears have been paralyzed lately. But Viville's defensive barriers are awesome, and she can blow most things away. So it's very safe.

'You and the exterminator even break up a marital quarrel...!　Speaking of the Central Plains, isn't it a dangerous area full of barbarians!　We'll go to the Chancellor's office as soon as we're done sending him out!　I'm going to ask for a leave of absence and I'll come over, so don't ever go alone!

　Seriously, they'll come anyway, even if we stop them...
　I'm tired, I can't think straight.
　The more he comes, the more he'll have to deal with it.

　After seeing off Vivir, we will go to the border plain trading city of Certo.



The Great Ares Mountains

'Mr. Speaker!　My allies are going to a dangerous place and I want to help them. Please give me some time off!

That little bonsai boy. I'll need you to order more bonsai cards for me as well as moss to go with my bonsai.
