Chapter 565 – Ep.563 Tullius Empire
“Mallingta was a real village town.”
“Hehe, compared to the imperial capital, it doesn’t feel that way, does it?”
Nyaho, who was with me in Nemea’s arms, laughed quietly and flicked his tail.
‘But it’s really not a joke.’
Using the power of the sign, we hid ourselves and left the mansion. Instead of going straight to the top of the Black Line, we climbed up the outer wall. There was no other reason, but because I wanted to see the overall view of the capital.
And I was very surprised that the scenery of the capital seen from the outer wall was much more neat and well-manicured than I had imagined.
“It’s towering over there. Does that mean it’s a magic tower?”
“Yes that’s right.”
“But it looks a bit small to be called a tower?”
At first glance, it looked like it was only about the height of the fifth floor of an apartment building.
“Do you remember the carriage we rode in? “The Magic Tower is not everything it seems.”
“… “After all, a wizard.”
I always have to be careful with my mouth when dealing with wizards.
Right now, other than God, they are the only ones who can harm me.
“Next time, let’s meet at the top of the imperial palace.”
“If you want, I can take you now.”
“… “I think I need to prepare my mind a little more there.”
It has already been confirmed through Sith and Vizelin that the hidden signs that have been calibrated by the system cannot be detected by anything except God. So, breaking into the imperial castle itself was actually possible for me alone.
‘The problem is that it’s ridiculously high.’
I don’t know about anything else, but I don’t think I’ll see the imperial palace even if I look at it, even though it’s so high.
“Let’s stop now.”
Since I’ve done a bit of sightseeing, I’ll quickly finish my errands and go back to snoop around in the chat room.
I haven’t heard from senior Hornbak yet, and I have to beg for materials for the newly created drawings. I’ll give it a try and see if I can get Earth items as well.
Whoooook──!!
Nemea came out, held Nyaho tightly, and jumped down the castle wall.
It’s not the first time I’ve experienced this, but I don’t think I’ll ever get used to the pain in my lower abdomen every time I fall from a high place.
“It seems like something is complicated, but it’s not… “It’s a strange place.”
“You feel that way because there are a lot of people. If you look closely, there are signs posted all over the streets. “If you know how to read, you will most likely never get lost.”
I opened my eyes wide and looked closely at Nyaho’s words, and there was indeed an arrow-shaped sign on the wall and in the center of the intersection clearly indicating the route to a certain area.
“Bizelin’s mansion is located in the northern ‘Land of Light’. “You won’t have to go out alone, sir, but if you happen to be alone, you can come to the land of light.”
“Land of light… “I memorized it.”
Even if I didn’t memorize it, I wasn’t too worried about getting lost because Sith was always in the mansion and someone would send me there.
“Oh, that’s the upper headquarters.”
A five-story building with a patterned flag fluttering and the black fan that Nyaho always carries in her arms wide open.
‘It’s no joke here either…’
It was amazing that the building had five floors, but surrounding it, I could see dozens of carriages and horses eating fodder or resting comfortably in a stable that was twice as wide as that of the Molingta Guard.
Not only that, but on the other side, dozens of wagons were lined up in a similarly sized vacant lot, and people were seen loading and unloading luggage.
“Could you please drop me off in the alley over there?”
“Sure.”
Nemea followed Nyaho’s words and entered a small alley.
Slurp.
After escaping from Nemea’s arms, Nyaho immediately released his hiding and revealed himself.
Then he winked at us and started walking slowly towards the upper building.
Sigh!!
Nyaho, who came out of the alley, took out the fan he had been hiding in his wide arms and unfolded it extravagantly.
It was that moment.
The eyes of passers-by on the road naturally turned to Nyaho.
The extremely exotic clothing and the dark black hair that is not easily seen here were certainly enough elements to attract people’s attention.
“Everything, Danju!!”
“Stop!! “Stop on the road!!”
When the women of the beast people standing in front of the building spotted Nyaho, they ran forward in surprise and blocked all the carriages that were trying to leave with their luggage.
In an instant, the entire street stopped.
Togak─ Togak─
Nyaho confidently entered the building with elegant steps, covering her mouth with an open fan.
Only then did the stopped time begin to flow again.
“Get sober… “I knew he was definitely the branch manager.”
“Danju-myeon is the owner of the upper part, right?”
“Okay.”
“Her…”
Nemea and I blinked for a moment and then followed Nyaho into the building.
“Bi, I heard you are in the Kingdom of Vittorio…”
“I came up because I had work to do.”
“Well, I see… !! Shall we summon the executives?”
“Everyone will be busy, so wouldn’t it be better to postpone the convocation until tomorrow? “Send just one Black Cat child to the office and let everyone get to work.”
Nyaho bit the beastmen women who clung to her surroundings, then she opened the door to her office on the fifth floor. And only after Nemea and I go inside first do we follow in and close the door.
“What happened?”
“You mean you’ve become sober?”
I quickly nodded.
Then, Nyaho clapped the fan he had opened! She folded over, sat down in the chair and touched her bright red lips towards me.
“Should I say that it is thanks to the goods from Seobang-nim and the support from Ardel-nim?”
“Ardel?”
“Yes. “He entrusted me with all the necessities needed for the fortress.”
“Oh…”
There was such a deal.
This is a fact she had no idea about.
“But is being sober a position that can be considered good performance?”
“The rest is a little more difficult to tell…”
“Huh. “Then that’s it.”
They say it’s awkward to talk about, but why bother listening?
You haven’t done anything harmful to me.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
-Danju. I heard you were looking for it.
“Okay. “Come in.”
The door opened, and a young-looking girl with black hair just like Nyaho came in.
The only difference is that both eyes are the same color, blue.
“Umm… Ostrich? Is that right?”
“Yes yes!! “You remembered!!”
A bright smile bloomed on the face of the girl who came in with a nervous look on her face.
“We must remember that he is one of our clan’s few children. “I’d like to talk a little more, but I’m a little busy today.”
“Gwae, it’s okay!! “What do you want me to do?”
“The items that came to me anonymously will be in the storage room. “Please bring me some of that.”
“Yes, lady!!”
The girl named Leah nodded to Nyaho and then ran outside, wagging her tail wildly.
“Cute.”
“Hehe, I’m fine with it because I’m used to it, but if you tell Leah that she’s cute, I’ll get really upset.”
“Oh, should I tell you it’s cool?”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if I just pat your head once?”
“I’ll have to do that next time we meet.”
I can tolerate everything else, but how can I resist the temptation of those furry ears and tail?
If you get the chance, let’s aim to stroke the ears and tails of all the beasts here.
‘… Should I just gently touch it like this?’
It seemed like something fun to do, so I decided to try both later.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
-Miss! I brought it!!
Perhaps because he was so happy that Nyaho had remembered his name, a voice so lively that it was embarrassing to compare it to before came through the thick door.
“Come in.”
Sweet!
Her doorknob turned roughly, and Leah came rushing in, holding out a box a little bigger than her fist to Nyaho.
“Thank you.”
“Lol…”
Nyaho stroked Leah’s head gently, then bent her waist slightly and brought her to eye level.
“I’m a little busy today, so I’ll call you again tomorrow?”
“… Yes!!”
Leah nodded her head vigorously, bowed again to Nyaho, then turned and left the office.
After the office door was closed, Nyaho unwrapped the box he was holding and took out the contents inside.
A round, translucent crystal sphere.
It was a communication port.
“If we say that the West has come… It might cause a fuss, so I think it would be better to say that you will arrive in a few days. “What do you think, West?”
“… Agreement.”
I feel a little sorry for our princess, but to be honest, I couldn’t help but agree with Nyaho’s opinion because the princess herself and even Adrian were people of note who could easily cause a sudden attack.
“Then, can I just tell you that you need an identity to use?”
“It would be nice if we weren’t slaves.”
“Hehe, that’s natural.”
Nyaho put the communication device down on the desk and activated it by infusing it with magical energy.
Wooooong─
A soft blue light began to blink in the translucent sphere.
“Ah, connected──”
-Has it arrived?! It had arrived!! Hello!! Is there anyone there!! Bring Adrian Glass right now!!
Marvius’ loud voice came out loud from the communication port emitting blue light.
“Hey, prince──”
-Make sure you have that communication device with you!! I’m going right now!!
Toouk.
The light from the communication port fades.
“”…””
We stared blankly at the unlit communication port for a while.
