--The situation was chaotic.



　I tried to make it sound cool, but of course it was.



　As usual, a room in a dirty building was occupied by a group of masked men with pointy heads.

　Among them were two new members who refused to wear masks, Princess Marianne and Prince Lias.



"Are you crazy, number one? They added a princess and a prince to the numbers!"



　A burly older brother with <<4> on his forehead slammed the table with a bang.



"And!　You've got to be kidding me!　Who the hell are you!"



　He pointed at a man who looked like Mr. Medjed.

　He was wearing a white cloth over his head, and only his eyes were open. His head was slightly raised. They were ears, but there was no point in making them transparent.



　Yes. It's Frey.



　I was working on my needlework last night, trying to make a mask of my own making, but I finally gave up and this is what I came up with.

　The word <<0>> is emblazoned on his forehead. Who the hell are you?



"Isn't there a rule that you don't reveal yourself here?" And Frey.



"What's wrong with being a little suspicious of someone so obvious!" The <<4>s are upset.



"Well, I'll give you a special answer. My name is Fletch Sempos, and I came here the day before yesterday as an exchange student.



　You use a crude alias.



You're a total outsider!



　Alexei, aka Number 1 (who is also unmasked), looks at the <4> person.



She's a follower of ...... number 7. She's the squire of number 7. We've invited Their Highnesses and they've asked that she join us. In short, she's my escort."



"I am a secret weapon, not their bodyguard."



A secret weapon?



"Hmph, your evil plans will end today... hmm?　Oh, yes. What?　.................."



　I gave Frey an earful to keep quiet for a minute. I'm here, by the way. In secret.



"What?　If you have something to say, say it!"



"Calm down," I said.　Number four."



　Alexei glared at him, and the <<4>> sat down on a chair with a thud.



"I apologize for welcoming Your Highnesses without explanation. But if I had told you in advance, as I have just done, a backlash would have been inevitable. If that was the case, I thought that we should discuss the matter in the presence of Their Highnesses."



"Well, it's not like you to act on your own," he said<<4>.

"Yes, it is. "You are a man who values harmony to the point of being sickening.

"You didn't get yourself into the Queen's head, did you?" And <<6>.

"Ha, you mean to say that the founders betrayed us?"<<2>.



　Alexei's centripetal force has been severely weakened.

　However, he is not in the mood for this. He was smiling coldly.



"My philosophy is consistent. I am concerned about our country in turmoil, and I believe that we all share the same desire to revitalize our country with our young power, don't we?



"That's true, but ......," he said<<12>>.



"In the presence of Your Highnesses, I dare say. The cause of the country's disorder is largely due to the conflict between the king and queen. But I believe that the princess and the prince share our feelings, and that is why I have invited them here."



　She turns to face me, and Sis Marianne responds.



"I understand the purpose of this meeting. I understand the purpose of this meeting, but even though we share the same goal, we are going in very different directions in terms of means. Let me be clear. Your way will only lead to the disruption of the country.



"Hmph!　You're a princess in a box, you think you're so high and mighty."

I think you should broaden your horizons, don't you?

You're so naive.



　These guys have no mercy on princesses. You think they don't know who you are?

　The sister is not intimidated by ridicule.



"From my point of view, it's you who have little insight. It is both funny and pathetic to see you dancing in the palm of the hands of the wicked.



　The masked group was in a state of excitement,



"The Lucifira cult."



　A dignified voice echoed through the room, and all was quiet.



"They are dangerous. Not only are they deep in the roots of the aristocracy, but they have also entrapped the queen, don't you know?　Why can't you see that they are the evil ones who are plotting to overthrow the state?"



　The heavy words of the princess, however, do not reach <<4>> people.



"...... high is a faction of the Mija religion plotting such great deeds?　You have delusions of grandeur."



"No!　If you know what they are really up to--ah......"






"Oh, hey, sis. It's ......."



　The two blush, and the one from <<4> takes the opportunity to bite back.



"What?　I'd like to know what you're really up to."



　The other masked men followed his smirk (which he only shows to me), and they also came to me, urging me to speak quickly.

　Sis," he mutters, his face bright red.



"Well, the demon god is back. ......"



　Immediately after the stunned silence,



"Ha-ha-ha!　A demon god?　That's a big deal!"

"Your Royal Highness, I'm afraid I can't allow you to tell me a fairy tale."

"I wonder if you're not going to take me seriously?"



　This silenced even the older sister, and Lias blushed and bit his back teeth.

　But then...



　The <<7> man raised one hand.

　Alexei urged him on, and he announced in a loud voice



"If the demon god is revived, he will be a threat not only to our kingdom but to the world. Now is the time for us to unite, transcending factional differences!　Let's all realize that we are in a very tight situation!"



"Are you serious, ......?"



Of course, number four, the actual threat is a lie, but it's true. Have you forgotten the recent disturbances in King's Landing?



"Bra ...... what?"



　Since there seems to be a good deal of confusion with Char's original name, this is a good time for me to give an earful to Frey.



"Listen, you stupid humans!　If you cannot hear our voice, we will strike directly into your heart. With the fire of my passion, I will make your ignorance known!



　As soon as Frey stands up and shouts, his body is engulfed in flames.

　Everyone is super scared. It's chaos.



　However, a second Medjed-sama suddenly enters the room and splashes water out of nowhere!

　The fire was extinguished, and No.2 left the room quickly, leaving a soaking wet Medjid-sama No.1 behind. Good work, Riza.



　I thought I instructed you to make it black and white in a direct confrontation, but I think you arranged it too much.　I don't think you're getting my point.



"...... I don't know what happened, but you mean to tell me that you want to settle this by magic warfare to see who is right or wrong?"



　Apparently, the brainiacs get it.



"It's easy to understand."

But reckless.

"Two first-years and a princess who's not much of a fighter."

"and a colorful, verbal jock..."

"I don't think they can compete with us."



　While the masked men are in high spirits.



"Huh?　Did I just set off a confrontation flag here?"



　Hmm?　Char seems to be confused ......?



"Well, it can't be helped. I'll show you the results of my training!"



　Oh. You're on board.



　Anyway, we're set for a head-to-head with Numbers.

　Go ahead, make some noise!



　By the way, Alexei, you are holding your fingers around your temples and shaking your head from side to side, does your head hurt from a headache?
