I returned to the parlor, being careful not to let the two people who were staring at each other get too close, and made sure that Duke Sanga and Amur sat face to face across the table. Since I'm a neutral mediator, I'm sitting in a position where I can see the profile of the two men.

''I'm sorry about our steal,''

It's the same for me, Ranitan, I'm afraid he had a rough night.

　When Rani heard Amr's words, she said in a small voice, "Miss! I said. Perhaps it was the pet-like way he said it that made me think, but it seems that I couldn't scream out in front of the Duke of Sangha. The standoff reappeared, but this time I put it to rest with a small tap on the table. I feel like a judge.

''Anyway, I think it's safe to say that the behavior of these two earlier was not an altercation between the two families, but a personal act.

　When I cut them off as early as possible, the Duke and Amour nodded at the same time.

''So, why are these two people so unhappy with each other? They both seem to be responsible for the intelligence of both families, so it's understandable that they would be at odds over that, though there seems to be more animosity than that.

　I don't know why they are standoffish to this extent, so I asked him what I wondered, but Amur shook his head that he didn't know. Well, Rani's direct boss is Hana-san, so maybe Amur doesn't have that information.
　So when he looked at the other Duke of Sangha, he looked a little troubled. I was wondering if it was something related to the secrets of the duke's family, but when the duke sensed what I was thinking, he said

No, it's a story I'd like to keep secret, but it's not a secret. About ten years ago, there was a close call between the Sangha duke's family and the then southern autonomous region, and it had something to do with that.

　At that time, the Southern Autonomous Region was not considered to be a completely trustworthy place (it still is, but the relationship has improved a lot due to the royal family and Hana-san reflecting on it). That's why joint exercises by the kingdom's nobles were often held near the southern autonomous region from time to time. From the kingdom's side, it was an act of restraint on the southern autonomous region, but apparently, those who were subjected to the exercises naturally saw it as a provocation. It seems that when the noblemen of the Sangha family participated in the exercise for the first time, the southern autonomous region feared that they were planning to attack the south this time because of the arrival of such a big shot, and the tension on the part of the Sangha family, which sensed the presence of the southern autonomous region, was rising, and the level of alertness between the two sides was at its highest.
　One day in the middle of the night as the tension continued, a few spies from the southern side had sneaked into the duke's position and stolen some information.
　Fortunately, the Duke of Sangha and other important people were not injured, and no one was killed, although a slashing contest developed between the intruders.

''In other words, these two people who slashed each other at that time.......''

　The two sides are almost evenly matched in skill, and with the arrival of the steal side's reinforcements about a few minutes after they slashed each other, Lani-san seems to have escaped immediately. Both of them seem to think that they would have been able to defeat their opponents if they hadn't been speared, and they still seem to be reeling from the feelings they had when they cut each other down.
　It's a very good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you're in the marketplace. He seemed to think that he couldn't do it and could only escape.
　Duke Sanga called off the exercise because of the information stolen by the intruders, but he didn't want to participate in the exercise to begin with, so he doesn't have a grudge against the South. He also advised the king to stop the exercise near the southern autonomous region, and the king apparently adopted it.
　In a way, the two men's slash-and-burn was a factor in eliminating the source of the conflict between the kingdom and the southern autonomous region, but to them, it was like a stain on their work, so they couldn't accept it and turned their dissatisfaction on the other party, said the Duke of Sanga.

''As for me, though, if you're going to have a problem with the South, I don't blame you for abandoning the stele.

'I don't have a choice, but if that happens, we'll have to ditch the Ranitans too. Fortunately, we have Donitan and Renitan to replace Ranitan, so it's not a big deal.

　At worst, if we cut off the two people in question, we could say that they had no intention of fighting the two families externally. When they were told that, they were puzzled, but eventually, when they realized that their master (the main source) was serious, they apologized to themselves and the other master, followed by an apology to me, and then finally, with a disgusted look on their face, they apologized to the other party as well.

　That was the end of it, the Duke of Sangha tried to stop the story, but before the Duke of Sangha could finish, Amul told Rani that the next time he had a problem, he would make him rub Renitan instead of Ranitan, and Rani was quite impatient.

　Duke Sanga seemed to be interested in the new name, but he felt that he couldn't listen to the other family members, but Amul didn't seem to be bothered by the Sanga duke.

''Temma. Even if Ranitan is disgusted with him, it doesn't matter because his sister Renitan is there. Rather, she's better than Ranitan, so I'll change her as soon as you tell me.

　He was revealing information about his place. He warned Hana-san that she might get angry with him if he told her too much information about the Viscount's family, but Amur didn't seem bothered by it, saying that it was common knowledge in Nanao.
　The one who was most surprised by this information was not the Duke of Sangha, but Steele, who seemed shocked that someone better than Rani, who was on par with him, and that it was Rani's sister. It's a good thing, but Steele might approve of Lani-san.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea. I'm finally ready for Luna-sama to get ready, so I'll excuse myself.

　You're still here?　Not long after that, Aina bowed and left the mansion. Duke Sangha was of course surprised by Aina's sudden appearance, but more than that, the surprise of Steele and Lani-san was amazing.
　After Aina left, they said that they didn't feel a sign, or that they didn't even hear the sound of footsteps, or even an open door. Aina left with the liver of the two main occupants cold, and she wondered again if she was really a maid.

　After seeing off Luna, who was being donned, and Tida, who seemed to be sad to be away from Amy, at the entrance, I returned to the parlor to find Lani with a bump on her head. When I asked Duke Sanga why, it seems that he and Steele got into another standoff while I was away, and Amur sanctioned him with an iron fist. Incidentally, it seems that Steele was also punished by Sanga Duke, and was squatting down while holding his shins.

　Duke Sanga and Amur had to apologize again, ignoring the two men behind them. Aside from Rani-san, I thought that Steele would be discarded if he was not good enough, but I didn't think that Duke Sanga would let go of someone who could be used for that much, so I stopped recruiting Steele. Even if I was able to solicit them, it would be awkward if they caused problems every time they met up with Lani-san, who is planning to come over occasionally from now on.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out that I'm not the only one who has a particular purpose in coming to the capital.

　As it was, we were having a great time talking about trivial matters, when Lani said she was going home because it was getting dark. He blurts out that he's not ready to leave for the south tomorrow. Apparently, she couldn't leave because she and Steele were competing with each other.

　When I saw Lani leave in a hurry, the Duke of Sangha also came to the front door, saying it was time to leave, but when I invited him to dinner, he turned back to the parlor.
　The Duke of Sangha was very pleased when we served dinner, mainly with southern ingredients, but Steele ate with an occasional complicated look on his face. Perhaps he was unable to genuinely enjoy the meal because of the flickering face of Lani-san, who had been playing around with him earlier.
　Duke Sanga didn't stay overnight after the meal, as expected, but he had been drinking with his grandfather until quite late. At that time, he said many times that he wanted to keep the Primera in the capital. Well, Duke Sanga will have more opportunities to come to the capital than Gunjo City, and since Albert is in the capital, he can feel secure in many ways.
　By the way, he doesn't seem to be too worried about Albert, even though his grandfather told him that I occasionally use him as a handmaiden, he said it was a good experience. In fact, he was even happy to hear the interesting stories about what Albert and the other three had done.

　As he was leaving, the Duke of Sangha spotted Merry near the front door and approached her to pet her, but Merry ran to hit the Duke of Sangha with her body.

'I won't let him!'

　Quickly, Steele stepped in between and defended the Duke of Sangha, but Merry performed an unexpected move here.

''Meh!''
Whoa!

　Steele, with Merry's gaze on his abdomen, slumped down and took a two-handed stance to catch the ball, but Merry feinted for a moment like he was going to jump, and when Steele's attention was momentarily turned upwards, he ducked between his legs and turned around behind him, aiming at Steele's crotch with his back foot It was.
　Steele barely blocked the kick, but in the meantime, Merry started running towards the Duke of Sanga. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time in the event that you're not able to make it.

''I'm sorry, Duke,''

'No, I'm sorry for approaching you carelessly. Maybe I thought a suspicious person was approaching.

　The Duke of Sangha forgave me for saying so, but I'm pretty sure Merry was just thinking about getting physical in lieu of a greeting.
　Merry was hugged by me and looked unhappy but quiet, but Steele was lightly depressed. I guess he didn't expect the lamb to do it to him.
　When I told the depressed Steele that Rion had been hurt worse, Steele seemed to have recovered somewhat, although he still said that he had made a mistake. The Duke of Sangha was laughing hysterically when he heard the story of how Leon was hit, even though he felt sorry for him.

''Maybe we'll get another victim.

　As I watched Merry go back to her own bunk after seeing off the Duke of Sangha, I couldn't help but have that feeling.
　That night, as I was going to bed, it occurred to me that Merry seems to be very strict with men. When I remembered that Mary was attacking men like me and Leon, she was attacking them with all her strength, but when she was attacking women like Aura, Chris and Luna, she seemed to be holding back somewhat.
　The reason is that no matter how critical the point of the attack, it was powerful enough to sink Leon in a single blow, but Aura only got red or fell on her buttocks where she hit him, and Luna, who was being attacked the most, only got a slight scrape. As for Chris-san, he is stronger and more physically capable than the other two, so he didn't have any injuries.

"I'll tell Tida to be careful too........

　The weakest man who comes to visit us is Tida, so we'll have to be careful. In the unlikely event that Tida were to suffer the same thing as Rion, it would be a disaster. Only Rion should be the one to suffer that kind of damage.
　I fell asleep while thinking terrible things like that.


''Eeeeeeee!''

Imbeciles!　

　When the mysterious creature suddenly appeared in front of me while I was asleep, I unintentionally slammed my right fist into it and tried to unleash a chase spell, but.......

"Wait, Temma!
Tenma-chan, that's Namitaro!

What?　

　Hearing those words, I hurriedly interrupted my magic.
　When I looked at the direction of the voice, I saw that it was the Skill God and the Martial God who stopped me, and the one who punched me away was Namitaro, just like the two (two pillars) said.

'If I look closely, I see that this is that room... so it's just another dream.

　If you look closely, you can see the Genesis God lying behind them, wrapped in a rope and gagged. The Genesis God's face was crumbly and dry, looking like a step before a mummy.

''~~~~''

　The Genesis God seemed to be conscious at least, and when his eyes met mine (his eyes were concave and his gaze seemed to be unsettled, so I don't know if he could really see), he said something. When I listened carefully, she said, "Tasukete-te". I couldn't hear it too quietly, so I put my ear close to the mouth of the God of Creation and heard it for sure.

　It was too pitiful, so I untied the rope and removed the gag, but I didn't know how to recover the cracked skin. So I used a water spell to moisturize her skin and she recovered as soon as she saw it. To be honest, it was a sickening sight.

''I managed to save myself........''

　When I was wondering why I was saved, the Skill God told me that I was on the verge of running out of magic power and was able to absorb the magic power that would help me recover.

''So, why did he call you this time?　And why is Namitaro even here?

'As far as Namitarou is concerned, it's a simple matter. I can even call Tenma-kun, so there's no reason why I can't call Nami Taro, who's also in the reincarnation group!　

That's not really why I called you here. If I had to ask, it would be at the request of Namitaro and myself.

"Teppo.

　Out of the corner of my eye, Namitaro was doing something, but no one rushed into it.

'Because I didn't have a choice!　I thought I'd be called up right away, but Tenma never calls up...

'No, then why don't you just come and visit us like normal?　I'm happy with the seafood, too.

　Namitaro knows where my grandfather's mansion is, and Namitaro would have an easy time getting into the royal capital...
　When I said that, Namitaro looked like the scales had fallen from his eyes.

I didn't think of that... and I thought I'd never get invited!　Well, I'm coming over there now~..................and goodbye!

　When he said that, Namitaro jumped in as if to dive to the ground and then disappeared. As expected of the dream world. It seems that anything is possible.

Ah!　Oh no!　The Goddess of Love seems to have found out that Mr. Tenma is here!　Martial God, Skill God, block the entrance and exit immediately!

I'm on it!
Let's do it!

　The two react immediately to the instructions of the Genesis God. By the way, the second line is the god of war. He was suddenly in man (Han) mode.

'Why the blockade?　Doesn't it matter if you come?

　To my question, the Creator....

'I'll put up with it if it's okay with you, Temma-kun, but if the Goddess of Love comes and makes a lot of noise now, I don't know what time Temma-kun will be able to return. Right now I'm forcing this space to be stable with my power, but if it becomes unstable, the timeline might shift.

　After all, Namitaro had been sitting in this space for nearly an entire day, and he had taken most of the Creator God's power with him. Well, he said it was because he used his power to play with Namitaro...
　So he was against calling me at first, but as a result of Nami Taro and Takegami's strong request and the Skill God getting into a bad mood, he forced himself to use the power of the Creation God to call me out.
　Apparently, if even the Goddess of Love is interrupted in that state, I don't know what will happen.

''And so........Temma-kun, good night.

　With those words, I was pushed to the futon I had just been sleeping on and forced to lie down. To be honest, I didn't feel sleepy, but the moment the Creator God touched my forehead, I became distant in consciousness....

'Ah!　Speaking of which, Temma-chan. It looks like there are people trying to make up a story about Temma-chan, so you should check it out. Well, goodnight then........chu!

　Before I completely disappeared from consciousness, Takegami told me something that made me feel uneasy. I wish he had told me that kind of information when I was conscious.

'Morning.........'

　I don't sleep enough and I have a slight headache, but I can't bring myself to fall asleep twice when I remember the commotion in that dream, so I decide to get up and get back up. And if Takegami's last words are true, it means that my story is in the process of being made or in the planning stages, so I'd better make a move sooner rather than later. In this case, the move in this case is to consult with Mary.
　There is a certain amount of privacy in this world (though not as much as in the previous life), and if a story based on a real person or a model of a real person is deemed too far from the truth or detrimental to the model, it is a crime.
　Furthermore, if the model has investors, you are not allowed to make up a story without their permission.
　For example, if you are not an investor, but you are a member of a knight's club like Dinh, you will need the permission of his superior, the king, to prevent information from being leaked.
　In my case, it's just a matter of course, but I belong to the royalist faction, so I ask the head of the group, Maria (.......) to control the publication.
　I don't think I can stop my book from being published after my name has been sold so far, so I'll ask her to choose a story with the royal family's approval before that. Then all of my stories that come out after that will be considered fictional, except for the ones approved by the royal family.
　I hurriedly made my way to the castle.
