41 Episode 41 "Meeting between the King of Frontiers ...




 In the letter from Princess Sylvia, she wrote the following three points.


I want to form an equal alliance with the king who rules the subhumans and pledge not to fight.
The terms of the alliance will be discussed and decided on the day of the meeting.
The meeting should take place in a mutually neutral place.
The meeting should take place in a neutral place. - Only two people should accompany each other.

 That's all.


 In short, it's like making an appointment with an authority figure, meeting him and deciding the terms of the contract.

 This is a high-level event that I've never done even in the original world. .......
 To be honest, I want to refuse because it's too much trouble. But the other party is a powerful man. If I refuse when the other side is making a move, they might use that as a reason to invade Hazama Village... It's difficult.

I'd like to hear what you all have to say.

 That's why I decided to listen to the opinions of Lisette, Haruka and Yukino.

"I don't like them, so I'm against it.
That's too direct an answer right off the bat. Haruka.
I don't trust them! I don't trust them!

 Haruka slammed his fist on the table.
 I'm using less force. If Haruka hits it hard enough, the tabletop will break.

I'm sure Uncle Garunga agrees. I'm sure Uncle Garunga and the others would agree with me. It's possible that the subhumans would be treated better if they were recognized by the Lord Keeper of Kittle, but ...... I don't like bowing to the lord of someone who pointed a sword at my brother.
What if I just went to talk to him?
I think I'd swing the cudgel without question.

 Hulka's not here.

 I talked to the Harpies, but they had no news of Princess Sylvia. The Harpies are too different in appearance from humans to enter towns and villages. However, she did say that she saw a group of what looked like the army of the "Kittle Patriarch" practicing when she was walking in the sky. That's all I know.

What does Lisette think?
"I agree that Brother Shoma and Princess Sylvia should meet. It's not every day you get to meet the daughter of a lord. It would be a shame to miss the opportunity to make an ally out of her.

 Across the table, Lisette nodded.

But since we don't know what kind of person we're dealing with, I think we should prepare accordingly.
"There is a rumor that Princess Sylvia was once kind to subhumans, right?
I'm not sure. The first priority is the safety of your brother Shoma.
There's too little information on .......

 Information from the human realm (area) does not reach this frontier.
 You can see why spying was so important during the war in the original world.

"Yukino traveled from the capital, right? Do you have any such information?
I was too busy looking for my true master. ......

 Yukino said apologetically.

And because you're childish, you can't go into places like bars where you can gather information.

 That's true.
 Yukino's body standing out from the table is about two heads shorter than Lisette and Haruka.
 It is difficult to go to places where information is gathered because of her childishness.

I'm sure you can find someone who can be your ally. ......

 In that light, Princess Sylvia's suggestion is good for us.
 The only question is, can we trust them?

"You don't need the princess's help, brother!

 Haruka shouted.

You can always ask one of the subhumans to turn into a human and enter the human world!
It's not impossible. However, it is difficult for a subhuman to blend in with humans. ......

 Me, Lisette and Haruka pondered.

"How about turning into a fortune teller?

 Suddenly, Yukino said.

The person who told me my fortune in the capital told me. The person who read my fortune in the capital told me that fortune tellers have a lot of opportunities to listen to people and gather information. He was about my height and looked like a child, but he said it wouldn't be a problem as long as I wore a robe and looked like I had these abilities.
He had a point.
You'll need some divination skills. ...... Is there anyone like that around?
The Harpy is good at that.

 Haruka raised his hand.

The Harpy is good at that. And when they fly at night, they look at the stars to choose where to go. Sometimes children are born with the ability to tell fortunes.
That's news to me. Haruka.
I've been sewing clothes for the Harpy children lately, and we've become friends. I used to make clothes for my uncle's children. I'm good at that kind of thing.

 That was an unexpected skill.
 Haruka may be rough around the edges, but she's surprisingly family-oriented. She was taking care of the kids when we first met.

I get it. I'll talk to the Harpy elder when I'm done with Princess Sylvia. Thank you, Yukino.


...... Oh, please say thank you to the fortune teller who read my fortune.

 Yukino turned her face away, as if embarrassed.

I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure it's a good idea. The name is similar to my 'Dragon Child', so we hit it off.
"Wow. What's his name?
He said Primordia-Baby Phoenix.

 ...... It sounded familiar.
 Primordia-baby phoenix. Prim for .......

That's a harpy.
You're the granddaughter of Nanayla the Elder.
You were hired to find her. ......

 Me, Lisette and Haruka looked at each other.
 Prim is the granddaughter of the Elder Harpy, and is half human and half Harpy. She's a harpy without wings.
 Instead of wings, she has arms and is fully human. The elder said that she was curious and went on a journey to learn about the world.

 I see. ...... Primordia is a fortune teller in the capital.

Thank you, Yukino. Thanks to you, I got some important information.
I'm sure you're right. I'm glad you did. ......
I'd rather go through Princess Sylvia and go scouting right now.

 Primordia has fortune-telling skills and knows the affairs of the capital.
 The fact that she has a thirst for knowledge means that she probably has data on the Grand Guard and the people involved.
 For those of us living on the frontier, this is the person we want right now.

It might be ...... difficult to get Primordia under our control.

 Yukino's face is serious and downcast.

"She said. "She said, 'When the stars permit, I will find my lord.
"...... Sounds like a difficult opponent.
"She also said. It's not like I'm gathering information and training for the sake of peace and tranquility! Don't misunderstand me! I'm sure you'll agree.
...... seems to be an incredibly difficult opponent.

 I'm not sure what to say.

 For now, I'll hold off on the Prim thing.
 I'll tell the harpy elders about the fortune teller in the capital later.

Then I guess I'll have to take the ...... meeting with Princess Sylvia.

 It's a hassle, but I'd like to settle this matter once and for all.
 I can't even go to the capital if I keep dragging this out.

I'll reply that I'll take the meeting. I'll reply that I'll accept the meeting, and we'll do what we can in the meantime. First, ...... Haruka.
Yes! Brother!
Will you accompany me to the wizard's room later?
Sure. But what are you doing?
I'm going to try to adjust the wards.

 Right now, the wizards are creating the largest wards they can.
 Can you change the size of this one? I want to find out what effect changing the size will have on the interior of the wards.

All right. Brother. I'll stay with you forever!
"Experimenting with the Dragon Emperor's skills, are you? Then ......

 For some reason, Lisette put her hand on her chest and looked at me.

If you don't mind, Lysette has a favor to ask you.
"A favor?
I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure you can do it.

 Lysette looked at me straight in the eyes and said.

You know that skill can enhance items, right? If you give Lysette a new name, you might be able to enhance her powers and skills.

 That's something I hadn't thought about .......

The "Naming Breath" of the Dragon Emperor skill allows you to add attributes to an item by applying letters with the same sound. For example, if you add the word 'chouken' to the word 'long sword', it will become 'choukata'.

But you can only add naming attributes to things that belong to me. Lysette is not my property, right?
But brother Shoma is the High King of the Deformed, isn't he?
"............
What? Brother?
Hmm?
"............, brother?
What is it? Lysette. I didn't quite catch that.
It's ............. It's .......


"...... hmm?
"............ Brother Shoma is the 'King of the Frontier', right?

 I took a deep breath at Lysette's line.
 I'm not sure what to say, but I'll try.

I took a deep breath and replied: "............ Well, I suppose so.
I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what you need to do. I'm pretty sure she's under his control.
You have a point.
I'm sure he's under his control." "Furthermore, my brother has strengthened himself immensely by applying the name 'Demon Dragon King Shoma' to himself as 'Kiryu Shoma. This is why your brother has the ability to add naming attributes. ......

 For some reason, Lisette looked at me with a twinkle in her eye.

I'm not sure why, but I'd like you to do the same thing for me. Please, brother Shoma! I'm sure you'll be able to do the same for Lysette.
"............
Um, brother?
............
Why are you looking at me like I'm a dead fish? Lisette, did I say something wrong? I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with your name. Let's see, let's see... ......
............
Oh, please, brother! I'm not sure what to say, but I'm sure you'll understand. I'm not sure what to do. I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea. What? I'm shocked that people from other worlds were also infected! No, that's not what Lysette is talking about. .................. Uh, uh, uh, brother!

 The next thing I knew, Lysette's face was right in front of me.
 She opened her eyes wide and said firmly.

I'm not sure what to do. In order to survive in this turbulent world, I have no choice! Please give Lysette an 'embarrassing name'!
"...... Hmm.

 ...... I see. I'm sure you've heard of the "naming breath" thing.
 I'm not sure what to make of that.
 I felt like I'd infected the people of the other world with chuunibyou, but ...... it seems I was imagining things. Thank goodness.

"Embarrassing name.
Yes. It's an embarrassing name! I'm sure it's embarrassing, but Lysette also wants to be strong to protect everyone! It's very embarrassing, but it's okay if it's for you. Please embarrass Lisette with your words!

 ...... I'm not sure that such a misleading line is a good idea.
 I'm sure you're not the only one.

"Okay. I'll use 'Add Naming Attribute' on Lysette.

 I said.
 If you're aware that it's an embarrassing name, then fine.
 Let's give Lysette a name that has the same power as "Demon Dragon King Xiangma".

 If you are aware of it, ...... is good.
 I'm not sure what to make of it. My power has opened the door to the other world! Come, train that will lead me to the other world, come to follow the path that leads to the sub-gods of the 6th heaven!
 I don't think I'll be screaming.
 If it's ............, fine.

 I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not.
 You can't tell from my position, but Lysette's face is bright red.
 It seems that she is aware of the embarrassment of her chuunibyou name.
 There's ......, isn't there?

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. I'm sure you're not the only one.
All right, come here.

 I stood up and beckoned Lisette to me.
 Lysette knelt in front of me, her face, arms and legs all red.
 Next to her, Haruka is holding her fingers in her mouth, and for some reason Yukino is writing letters in the air with her fingers, but I don't care about that right now.
 I put my hand on Lisette's forehead and activate my skill.

I put my hand on Lisette's forehead and activate a skill: "'Add Naming Attribute' - I give you a new attribute. Accept the king's naming!
"...... I accept graciously. Brother Shoma, ...... my king.
"I give thee the spirit of the word, and the spirit is as follows. "Lysette...


 And execute the Naming Breath.


"Lysette, rest a while. We'll experiment with attributes later.
Then we'll adjust the magic circle first.


You're right. Yukino, keep an eye on Lisette. Call me if you need anything.

 After saying that, I headed to the magic circle room with Haruka.




 Lysette's point of view...


I've got a new name for my brother .......

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.
 Shoma and Haruka are on their way to the magic circle room. They are probably going to adjust the wards now.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the site, please contact us at .......
I think I know what you mean.
Do you know, Yukino-san?

 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm going to do it.

I'm sure that Shoma has sealed his true name by thinking of it as 'embarrassing'. I'm sure you'll find a lot of people who'd like to know more about it.
"...... So what do you mean when you say 'infected the people of this world'?
"I think he doesn't want to involve people in his fate. I think he doesn't want to involve others in his fate. He's afraid of 'infecting' them with his fate.
"...... I see!
...... Also, Shoma has been fighting the enemies of the world in his original world. In order to survive, you need to hide your true identity, right? I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more information on this in the future.
...... Do you think your habits from that time still remain?
...... Perhaps.
...... So that's why your brother rejects your alias. ...... I'm learning.

 I'm not sure what to make of that.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the site, please contact us. I'm sure you're not the only one.
"Yes. I have to make sure that Shoma-san understands that there is no need to hide his true power any longer.

 Without realizing it, the two of them put their hands together.
 Before they knew it, they were holding hands.




 Shoma's point of view...



 A few days later.

 A few days later, Princess Sylvia's messenger came to Hazama Village once again.
 She wanted to know if I would accept the meeting and where it would take place.

 In the meantime, I had flown with the Harpies and decided on a suitable place for the meeting.
 When I told them that, another messenger flew back and forth to arrange the location.
 It's a real hassle to have a meeting with a high-ranking person.

 Another few days passed and the messenger returned.
 After finalizing the date and place, the time and place for me and Princess Sylvia to meet was decided.
 It was decided that the meeting would take place on the plains halfway between the Kittle Governorate and Hazama Village.

 It seems to be the most 'neutral' place.
 I had no particular objection to that.

 Our goal was to see if Princess Sylvia was on the side of the subhumans.
 If she is, she's a reassuring partner, but I'm not sure I can trust her.
 So I decided to meet her just once.  

 I'll meet Princess Sylvia in three days.

 Until then, I spent my time experimenting with magic circles and wards and checking the new attributes I had given to Lisette.

 It said that I could have up to two companions, so I asked Lisette and the demon Garunga to come with me.
 Haruka and Yukino would stay in the village.


Haruka and Yukino will stay at the village as planned.
Yes, sir. Brother... - Be careful. Shoma-san.


 And on the day of the event, after making all the preparations, I headed to the venue on foot with Lisette and the demon Garunga.
