He had returned to Touahade from King's Landing because he had finished his work.
　Since his return, he continued to use the communication network to gather information and evidence.
　And only yesterday did he finally complete the material that the Marquis Karonarai was the real culprit.

''You managed to make it in time.

After all, real-time communication networks are foul.
　When gathering information from around the world, it would normally take several days just to pass on instructions to a local intelligence officer, and then several more days to have him deliver the results of his investigation.
　Moreover, if new information is found, the number of new subjects to be investigated increases, and it takes an unbelievable number of days for the instructions to be given.
　The ability to communicate information in an instant is why we were able to produce so much material in this very short period of time.
　Whoever controls the information will conquer the world.
　I'm not kidding, if we seriously utilize this communication network, we may even be able to take over the world.

I'm here to play!

The door to my room opens and Dia comes in.
　She doesn't knock, not because it's not polite, but because she locks the door when she doesn't want to be entered, and the two of them have an agreement that if it's unlocked, she's free to enter.

''Well that look on your face, it looks like you've created a new kind of magic again.

In Dia's case, it's in her face as soon as she can do good magic.

'Yes, I do. 'Yes, I'm so proud of this one. Come on, go ahead and write it down. I can't do the experiment without Rouges.

I'm not going to be able to get my hands on a new magic.
　Lately, I've been so busy with various things on my end that I haven't been able to get around to developing magic.
　I've been relying on Dia for the new magic.
　I've been teaching Dia a variety of techniques from my previous life that could be used in magic, and she's done a great job of turning them into magic. Sometimes she even added ideas that I didn't have.
　A lot of magic was born because of Dia's presence.

It's interesting, indeed.
When I saw the rogue communicators and hang gliders, I realized that magic isn't just for fighting. I realized that magic isn't just for fighting. Wouldn't it be nice to have this magic?
Yeah, very good.

Once again, Dia's genius was on display.
　I hadn't even imagined this combination of techniques.

It would be embarrassing not to talk about it.

''Gosh, let's see, is the trial plan going well?　If we lose, the rogue will become a criminal, right? I don't want that to happen.
'It's perfect in terms of what we can see. Now it just depends on how many cards they have that we're not expecting.
Is it going to be a tough fight?
'It seems to be manageable. No matter what kind of hand you have ready, you can crush the enemy's claim, and the root of it.
Good. Good. But it's a bit annoying. I can't help you in this situation, and I wasn't very helpful in the last time I was in King's Landing.

Looking at Dia who looks apologetic, I shake my head.

I'm not so sure about that, the magic formula used to create the communication device was made possible because of the regularity and regularity that Dia found for me. Besides, you were very successful even in the royal capital.
I don't remember doing anything.
'He jumped in because he thought he could take three noblewomen with him. It meant a lot just to have them there. Besides, you two did a great job of making me look good.
There, more detail!
'You were deliberately wearing make-up and dresses that killed the charm of Dear and Tart, weren't you?　And intentionally, I took it out of his wheelhouse. It was to protect the two of us, and I had calculated that my beauty would be highlighted when the three of us were side by side. Not only that, I always made a gesture of care and protection for the two of them, and a woman who did that kind of thing earned points for that man's taste. A person's attractiveness is sensible and relative. It's basic to use the compliment well.

This is one of the techniques used when doing color tricks.
　By daring to place a woman who is not to the target's liking and who is even lower in rank than himself next to her, it creates a contrast and accentuates the appeal.
　It was only because of the two of them that I was able to drop Count Flantrude so easily.
　.........Though I was planning to have them cooperate more directly with me on the backup plan.

''I'm wondering if I should be happy about that or if I should regret it!　Anyway, feel free to keep relying on us. As soon as you leave a rooge alone, he'll try to do everything on his own.
Really?　I think I'm still pretty spoiled on this one.
'You can spoil me even more. I'm Roug's big sister.
She's my sister now, though.
Mmm.

Dia puffs out her cheeks and giggles in a cute way.
　Dia doesn't understand how much I'm helping her.

'Well, I hear they're here to pick you up. Take care of the house.

Looking out the window, I saw a carriage painted jet black and parked in front of the mansion.
　Only special officials would use that carriage.
　In other words, it was meant to transport those suspected of crimes.

''Good luck with that.''

I'm going to King's Landing by myself.
　I'm being taken away, so I'm not allowed to be escorted.
　Besides, once I get over there, there's little I can do for Dia and Tart.
　As I was about to get up to greet the officials, a shadow burst into the room.

It's a breathless tart.

'Um, Master Lugue, we brought you something!

He holds out a large basket.
　A sweet smell wafts from the basket.

'It's a sweet bread that will last for days!　I baked it because I didn't know if they would give us a proper meal over there. Please be safe.

Open the inside and you'll find a preservation bread baked with a generous amount of fruit and nuts soaked in alcohol.
　I had them make it as a preservative when I used to do survival exercises with the tarts.
　You still remember that recipe.
　Maybe the reason why I prepared the bread I made for the survival exercises was because I wanted them to survive.

I'll take it with gratitude.

I'm sorry to disappoint, but we need these things.
　I'm being brought in as a suspect.
　I'm still in the suspicion phase, so normally I wouldn't be treated as badly as I am.
　But this is not normal. If they're in a position to undermine me, they might try to bribe an official to harass me in order to take away my judgment.
　By hurting me, not feeding me, and depriving me of my energy, it's set in stone to drive me into a corner so that I can't make a proper argument before the trial.

Thankfully, I stored the entire basket in the [Crane Skin Bag] along with the materials for the trial, and then folded the [Crane Skin Bag] and put it in a plastic-like thing created by the original magic before swallowing it.
It's a trick that's possible because the 【Crane Skin Bag】 can be folded up and reduced to the size of a palm of your hand.

''You know, Roug, that bag is an incredibly important thing, is it safe to drink it!
'I do this because it's important. With a little training you can keep it in your stomach and you can take it out whenever you want. If they're going to mess with me, they'll confiscate my possessions, right?
Oh, my God, it's an amazing human being!

It is also easy to hide in other places such as the rectum.
　It's a rather popular technique, and there is even a fierce man who passed customs after hiding a kilo of drugs and other substances inside his body.

"Rogue-sama is amazing...Oh, I failed again.
What's going on?
''In Master Rouges' case, since there's a [crane skin bag], it could have been a softer loaf of bread, not for storage.

Awwww, the tart panicked.
　It's true that the bread baked by the tart is close to Stollen, and it's a hard bread with little moisture due to its long-term storage.

It's okay, it's just as tasty as it sounds. Thankfully, I'll eat it. I'll be pissed if you haven't finished your homework by then.

I say teasingly to alleviate some of their concerns.

'Yeah, I'll make sure it's done!
I'm going to learn it too!

It would be a shame not to let them do anything while I was gone.

So I gave them some extra homework to do.
　By the time I get back, they will both have grown up a lot.

◇

The door of the mansion is knocked on hurriedly by an official.
　Normally a servant greets me, but this time I'm going.

''What can I do for you?''
Is there a rogue Touahade?

The man in front of me is middle-aged and a little shorter than me. His manner is intimidating, but there is a hint of meanness in his manner.
　He's an uncharacteristic little scoundrel.

'That's me,'
"The other day you received a letter. I'm bringing you to King's Landing for the murder of Count Marrentot.
　Of course, I never received a letter or anything else.
　To set me up, they prevented it from reaching me by accident.
　I dare to pretend I don't know anything about it and try to get upset.
　I called out that I didn't receive such a letter, that I didn't know what I was talking about, that there was a mistake.

Watch the other person's reaction while acting like that.
　If he was just an official, he would be somewhat suspicious and offer an explanation.
　But if this guy is being paid off........

''You're unseemly, you murderer!　Come on now!

He drew his sword from his waist and threatened...a mocking smile on his mouth.
　This guy knows. That the letter was never going to reach him.

'I'm going. I'm going to prove my innocence.

The moment I said that, they hit me. I see, it seems that a magician had been chosen just to bring in the nobles.
　It was expected that he was going to hit me, and the blow was so blunt that it was easy for me to shake my head at the moment of impact and let the impact go.
　It looked flashy but did little damage.
　Despite this, he stumbled back and hit his buttocks, making a terrified expression and pressing a hand to his cheek.
''You call yourself a holy knight and this is how you look!　What a defiant look in your eyes, that shows no remorse at all!　I'll have plenty of time to adore and correct you until you reach King's Landing!

You can leave it in good shape for as long as you want.
　I'll make you pay for it later.

◇

When I got on the carriage, my hands were tied and I was even gagged to prevent me from chanting magic.
　And as expected, all of their personal belongings were confiscated.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world by doing a light inspection of your belongings.
　I've been told that the two men who are watching over me have both been bribed by the Marquis of Karonarai.
　After I get in the carriage, it's just as funny as I imagined it would be.
　They spew abusive language and deliberately trample my food with their shoes, claiming that my hand slipped during mealtime.

These officials are in a state of loss, with needles sticking into their necks and their eyes open, their whole bodies relaxed.
　I'm surrounded by such two people, undoing the iron chains that bind my hands and removing the gag.
　Then, I leisurely take out the [crane skin bag] and eat the bread that Tart made for me.　It's hard but moist and luxurious with plenty of dried fruits and nuts.
　I'm grateful that the basket also contains a water bottle filled with warm soup.
　The warm broth soothes my crusty heart.

'It's good. The tart guy's improving again.

Thank God Tart was able to make me eat.
　Now that my stomach is full, I'm going to re-read the material for the trial.
　Even though I'm doing this, the officials are still talking to themselves, making disgusting noises and twitching their fingers every now and then.

This happened because I used a needle to shoot the drug into their necks.
　There's no way that these guys' degree can find the dark box that the assassin really hid. And I'm going to pull off a trick like this, even if they have their hands full.

The potion is a powerful truth serum that I had made just in case.
　It's so powerful that the one I was injected with doesn't know the line between dreams and reality, and with my eyes open, I can dream and taste the world that suits me.

When I hear the soliloquy that leaks out, it seems to be tormenting me in my dreams.
　He is a rich nobleman and the next head of the family. He doesn't like the fact that I'm good-looking and universally admired.
　He seems to enjoy beating me up with such a deprived state of freedom.

The benefit of this drug is that, thanks to its propensity to blur the line between dreams and reality, I think the fantasies that took place during the hours the drug was working are real.
　Unlike normal stunting, the memories are properly preserved, so even after I come back to my senses, I won't realize what I've done.

I will administer this potion periodically until we reach King's Landing.
　In this way, he will become more docile, and it will also be a stepping stone for later.
　The regular use of this potion will make your head very soft and easy to dye.

The day before we arrive, I'm going to change the medication a little bit and make it my potty to help me with a lot of things.

"I wasn't going to use these drugs. The aftereffects are horrible.

If they were just officials, I was going to keep them quiet until King's Landing.
　But he was bribed and tried to hurt me for fun.
　I'm not gentle enough to care about such an opponent.

''Well I've read the material, let's go develop some magic.

It's been a long time since I've had time to relax.
　Let's develop our magic to our heart's content.
　I take out a piece of paper and a pen.
　Lately, Dia has been surprising me a lot. I must create a spell to surprise her.
　I have to create a spell that will surprise her, too.
　I'm sure she'll be delighted when I show it to her, and then she'll develop the idea and make a new spell.
　He had returned to Touahade from King's Landing because he had finished his work.
　Since his return, he continued to use the communication network to gather information and evidence.
　And only yesterday did he finally complete the material that the Marquis Karonarai was the real culprit.
