While I was doing this and that, the normal business of the city, I was doing a tour of the city.

It's about time for a summer festival in a rural outpost.
　And the demon Black said.

　
　A summer festival?


　I nodded my head in agreement.
Well, in the countryside, they hold a festival three times a year in spring, summer and autumn in the surrounding cities.
　Black says that and laughs with a smile.


　I was curious to hear more about it, so I asked Kuro for more details.

Well, in a nutshell.
　It's like all the famous shops in each city get together to set up their stalls and have a big party.
　A lot of people come to see these stalls, and the town becomes even more lively than usual.
　Then Black laughs again with a ga-haha.
　
　This story for sure.
　So I'm interested in it, in my opinion.

　I'm just saying.
　Today, the small frontier city of Liberty is
　It is a collection of settlements at the foot of the former Gorn Mountain, lodging communities along the road, and the small frontier city of Gehmose.

　And we're in the process of developing friendships with the surrounding small frontier cities of Pyx and Eads, as well as the frontier cities of Batcombe and Greencombe.
　If only we could hold this kind of festival and set up our own stalls and make our relationship with each other more intimate....

　So that's what I was thinking about.

　Just.
　As someone who has spent a lot of time in King's Landing.
　First of all, I wanted to go to the summer festival to experience its atmosphere.

　In
　When I told Black that.
　Black started laughing again with another ga-haha.
Mm-hmm, good point.
　Well, I'll see if I can find a suitable summer festival for you.
　Since you said so, we'll let Black choose where to go on the tour.

　For now, this case is here once and for all.
　I'll wait for Black to speak.

　I'm here to address one of my biggest concerns of late.
　He decided to organize information about the matters of the Ancient Monster Tribe and the mysterious bandits in and around the Old Frontier Village.

　Once back at the town hall.
　I'm going to double-check the information about this case that I have compiled on my desk at the town hall.

　The hexenbiest who is believed to be from the ancient tribe of monsters.
　Lately, after all, the number of sightings in and around the old pioneer village had increased dramatically in the past few weeks.

　And.
　In proportion to this, there has been an increase in the number of people who seem to be part of the mysterious bandit gang as an example.

　Both of them have been informed by the guards who regularly patrol this area.

　The other day.
　The captain of the guard, Googus, who had gone to investigate this ancient race of monsters and the mysterious pirate group, was severely injured by a poisoned arrow.
　So we think we have to be very careful on our side.

　I've asked for Foldente.

　Then Foldente
What can I do for you?
　As he said that, he suddenly appeared inside the lord's room as usual.

　To such Foldente.
　After explaining the information we know now to Foldente.
I want you to take this information to Greencombe and ask them how they plan to deal with it.
　I asked for that.

　The result.
　Like last time, I'm not sure if they're going to ask me to help with the investigation.
　We need to make that clear first.

　As long as it resulted in a life saved
　The last time that happened, Googs could have been dead...

　With that in mind.
　I've been instructed to check and re-investigate the information on this case.

Are you there, my lord?
　And then Googus came into the lord's room.

　Only Googus, who had been poisoned by a poisoned arrow before.
Are you hurt?　Are you experiencing any residual effects from the poisoned arrow?
　I just asked Googus about it.
　Googus laughed and said, "Heh, heh,
Yeah, my body's perfectly fine.
　I was relieved to hear you say that, but I was also relieved to hear that.
　Googs added to those words.
So I hope you'll add me to the new search party.
　　So he said that and smiled at me with a smirk.

　I couldn't help but choke up at such a googly eyes.

　I choked up, because
　It's because Googus's doctor has given him a month of absolute rest.

　

　I've been thinking about that.
　Googus smiled again with a nikah
Just keep up the good work on the survey team, all right?
　After saying that, he went back to his room.

　Hmmm.....
　I appreciate the sentiment, but....
　That's why information about that area is still very scarce.

　I've already infiltrated such a place with my men, if the Googs are ready.
　I mean, he could be a tremendous asset.

　At this point, anyway.
　For me, I don't agree with the idea of having Googus return to the investigation team.


　I've been pondering on this.
What is it?　He's got a lot on his mind.
　As he said this, Kuro came into the room.
I've picked up some information about the summer festival that will be held in the near future.
　As he says this, he lays out some flyers on my desk.

　According to that.
　I found out that there was a summer festival centered on the Gatacombe in the far east and a summer festival centered on the Dezra Combe in the southeast, which I heard was quite large.

　As I was watching it with Kuro, it occurred to me here.

　What about asking Gugs to observe this festival?
　It's a remote city, and I'm sure there are a lot of vermin.
　If the Googs are going to go, it's almost certainly going to be Lil Pop.
I'm coming with you, sir.
　That's what you would say.

　Now Googs and Lil Pop live together, and they're close enough to raise the ancient monster race of Goopop together...

　And on top of that, if I join the investigative team I'm sure you'll agree.
"Safate, I need to talk to you about...
　As she said this, Biblina came into the lord's office.

　Biblina said
"I'd like to train an elite unit of Batcombe's finest in forestry...
　And that was that.

　Whatever.
　When Geltor heard that Liberty and the three cities of Guianacombe and Greencombe were collaborating on a survey, they were unable to make much progress.
Father says to train your troops in warfare, to do what you can for them.
　And that was that.

　For this mysterious bandit group.

　It's partly because of the shadows of those behind the scenes in the vicinity of Butchcombe.
　And I'm sure that's what the recipient, Gelter, was instructed to do, but it was just the right offer at the right time.

　I will.
　Recently, there have been an increasing number of sightings of what appears to be an ancient monster tribe, and I told him that I was considering sending a team to investigate.
　Biblina's eyes sparkled.
Good timing!　Let me help you by all means.
　So, they offered to do so.

　Now that we have an idea of the troops we're going to investigate.

　I called Googus to the lord's chambers once again.
I'd like you to visit a summer festival in a frontier city.
　I told him so.


　In.

　The look of disgust on Googus's face as he did so....
　It was just so amazing.

　At this time, Lil Pop, who had requested to come to the lord's room on a separate flight from Googs, came to the lord's room.
''You, what are you doing here........''
　And I'm a cloudy googly face.
　I asked the freshly arrived Lil' Pop to visit the summer festival again.

　Then, Lil' Pop.
　He turns to face the googly eyes with a huge grin on his face.
Did you hear that, sir?　Captain, sir.
　Because of your recklessness, I have been sentenced to a sabbatical.
　Yes, Lilpop here is involved in this too.
　Yes, just when you think you've repeated those words for all the world to see
My lord, lillpop, I'm going to be off duty with this strange man.
　Oh, may I ask for one of your men, my lord?
　That's what Lil Pop tells me.

　When I allow it.
Do you mind?　Until your injuries are fully healed, you will endeavor to provide family services until your injuries are fully healed.......do you understand?
　Yes, the lil' pops were following behind Googs around, repeating relentlessly.

　What can I say?
　At first glance, it looked like he was just trying to harass me.

　I'm sure, in Lil Pop's own way, he was worried about Googs, and that's what he did.

　After all.
　The one who brought back Googs, who had been hit by a poisoned arrow and was unconscious, with a desperate look on his face, was none other than Lil Pop himself.

　I watched the lillpops who had left with a wry smile.
　I stayed in the room and held a meeting with Biblina, who was still in the room, to discuss the investigation team.
