Chapter 655 – [Garuna Plateau]

As for what dinner was here, it was a whole roast.

If it was a whole roast of a certain animal, I would have just said something like a whole roast, a cow, or a whole sheep.

First of all, even if it came out this evening, there were three cows and two sheep. Besides, there were a couple of whole roast animals I didn’t know what they were.

To be honest, even if there are many members of the tribe and they ate separately, this is no joke. Besides, these guys thriftily grilled the intestines too.

Umm, the taste of beef tripe and lamb tripe. The intestines are delicious only when they are well-treated, but they are delicious, perhaps because of the accumulated know-how.

Especially the beef liver……. Uh, maybe it’s because they caught the cow today.

Anyway, after eating and drinking like that, the morning was bright before I knew it.

…………Mmm? What the hell? What the hell happened?

“Ah, I ate deliciously.”

“……It’s a little better that you ate well.”

Luminus and Seon were lying on either side of me on the spread blanket in the middle of the tent.

Among them, Luminus was sleeping quietly, but Seon was lying next to me with an arm pillow on his arm as if he was awake.

No, now that I think about it, I think this is the first time Seon is this close. Originally, even in the dormitory, we slept in separate rooms. Usually Shion or Luminus sleep next to me.

Just in case, I asked Seon.

“Did something happen yesterday?”

“Did you just eat well and get drunk and go to sleep?”

“Has anything happened?”

“There wasn’t”

Usually, if you ask that far, the angle comes out roughly, but I still didn’t know, so I asked a little more.

“The standard of that special day was not a transcendental person, but even if it was an ordinary person’s standard, anyway, wasn’t it a big deal?”

“Nothing really happened”

I’m so glad!!!!

If I ate the line unconsciously, I thought it would be a big problem!!!!

“Ah!!!! I wish I had done that!!!!”

“Don’t say that!!!!”

It’s good for a girl’s first experience to be sober!!!! If you do it stupidly like that, you will regret it later!!!!

Anyway, I got out of bed and got out of bed.

Since Luminus was still sleeping, I left it for now. Write, if you think about it, it seems that there are too many things to drink and get drunk these days.

It’s happened before, but this time it’s the second time. No, I want to do it once, but twice is a bit like that.

“I like that you want me.”

“It’s good to make sure that at least the first experience is sober. That will last a lifetime.”

“……Ah, that’s right.”

I still remember my first experience. Even if it wasn’t that, I still remember my first experience with Shion.

Anyway, I got up, tidied up for a while, washed up, and met Astra.

Today is the day to be guided to 【Twisted Valley of Time】 in earnest. Yesterday was fine, so I’m glad we didn’t have any problems meeting each other.

“It’s a bit late, but considering what we saw yesterday, it’s rather early.”

“…….Uh, um. What did I do yesterday?”

“I drank a third of the tribe’s stockpile by myself and slept.”

“Uh”

Apparently I drank quite a bit yesterday. To be honest, I had nothing to say.

I don’t know anything else, but I stock it up like hibernation and shake off the kids’ food for the winter.

“Let’s start with the delusion area. If we demolish that place, roughly what I drank will be replenished.”

“Will there be only left?”

First of all, I have a purpose that I have to make sure to demolish the delusion site here.

I don’t know anything else, but I drank like that at a guest’s house, so I had to buy alcohol or meat the same way.

Talk to Astra and come out. Luminous also greeted me as if he had woken up after washing himself.

“Ah, Your Highness”

“Are you awake? You’ve slept quite a while.”

“Because I’m drinking with Her Highness… Well, that’s how it turned out.”

“…No, I left the underage girl drinking too much?!”

“You didn’t say anything?”

“From now on, I’m going to drink a lot. I’ll drink alcohol with my young body and get drunk… I’ll write.”

I don’t know if I die early, but it’s a bit like my acquaintances die early. To be honest, seeing the death of a loved one isn’t a very good story.

For now, I decided to act separately from Luminous. I don’t know anything else, but the place I’m going to right now is probably the most dangerous of the delusion lands.

Luminous has the characteristics of a beast and a human at the same time, so it is not easy to go even if the lifespan combines the two. After all, the lifespan will be a little over 100 years.

“……Ah, then I’ll visit the Wolf Beast tribe.”

“Are you okay?”

“It’s important to be with Her Highness, but it’s just as important not to disturb Her Highness. Don’t worry and come home.”

And the one left is Seon… I could have taken him with me, but I decided to leave Seon as well.

It’s not that it isn’t helpful or anything like that, it’s just that I have to stay here and protect Luminus.

“Me? Him?”

“It’s clear that he’s giving guidance, but shouldn’t there be at least one adult to take care of the child?”

“Hmm, are you saying I’m an adult? Then I understand. Come home, mister.”

Come to think of it, Seon and I couldn’t even go on a date that we promised during the cultural festival.

I was going to do it, but I couldn’t even do it because the schedule was tight. Because of the 10-year-old crown prince… Let’s take care of Seon a little more this time.

I got ready to go out and get ready to leave with Latri. To be honest, there was nothing to take care of.

“For now, there are people staying in the vicinity. You can borrow supplies from there in case of emergency.”

“Are you okay?”

“Anyway, the people there are also our tribe. Demolition of the delusional land is what the people who rule this Garuna Plateau want the most among other tribes.”

“But”

Other people would be busy eating and living for a day, but from the position of the ruler, it was a law to see it from a higher place.

Even if there is no hope, if the territory is expanding, it is a law to invest even a little bit. In fact, that is the attitude of the right ruler.

First of all, it was a situation where I and Latrina were running lightly, but the speed was comparable to the speed of a decent car. Looking at it, it seems that there was a horse here, but it seems that there are people who like to run more.

Soon, after running for several hours with a break in between, they arrived at the western region of the highlands, quite far from Kurma.

“This is the [Valley of Twisted Time]”

“I see”

In general, the concept of time is a concept that is difficult to perceive easily. However, the flow of time itself could be seen through change.

The scenery of the valley that comes into my eyes is changing little by little, but quickly. The first thing that comes in is the grass on the ground. Weeds grow quickly, die at the end of their lives, and then other weeds sprout.

The appearance of this and that weeds growing was a bit heterogeneous, as it looked like bugs were climbing, but it was okay to see the change and range of time.

“I don’t know the vegetation here, so it’s hard to see how fast it flows…”

“There’s no need for that. Anyway, change is fickle, so after a while, it changes again. Ah, just like now.”

Soon, the rapidly growing weeds stopped as if it had stopped.

If you just look at it, it looks like a normal scenery, but in reality, on the contrary, time passes very slowly.

…….. But the wind remains the same. The speed of blades of grass blown by the wind does not fall slowly, but just flies and falls under the influence of gravity.

Hmmm, I guess it’s not just time messed up.

“It’s strange that place, but the cognitive ability is the same.”

“I get it roughly. If you go in now, your spirit will remain the same, but the time that flows through your body will go slowly, right?”

“If it weren’t for the capricious change in time, we could live a long time. How many people have grown old simply to figure that out… Tsk”

It seems to be a fairly high level of time interference.

If the consciousness is the same, isn’t it rather the opposite? Of course, if I had come without prior knowledge, I might have thought so, but after hearing the story about that delusion, I changed my mind.

Whether time is fast or slow, anyway, if a lover living in such a different time moves as if it were still, that would be just for admiration.

The purpose of the elf who created that delusion was to live in the same time as his lover, so even though the time of the body flows differently, he made as much as cognitive ability the same.

Despite the runaway, it is a fairly sophisticated time interference. I don’t know about internal exploration, but that wasn’t something to see easily.

“Let’s go see Duke Magnus first. Since we’re from the same empire, the story won’t work.”

“I beat that old man and also his daughter?”

“Uh, then, won’t you be stabbed as soon as we meet?”

“In case you don’t know, I’ve prepared something. It won’t happen like that.”

If necessary, just show the letter handwritten by the emperor. It means that those who came down from the Continental Ten River after hearing the emperor’s words at least listened to the emperor’s words.

Loyalty is good, but it’s a pity that he is a person who ruins his children’s farming.

Well, even for transcendents, farming children is difficult. Since the Absolute of Creation is also the Absolute, I am hearing from the eldest son that he is a goddamn father.

Soon, I see a tent set up near the valley and quite a few people investigating something.

There are beastmen, but more than half are human. Perhaps there were not only Duke Magnus, but also researchers.

“……..Majesty?”

“Looks like the progress on the investigation is slow, Duke.”

In general, if it is a continental ten river, I should also be respectful, not flat. Even if it was the ten continents, the fact that they were the pillars of the empire would not change.

However, I am a member of the Ten Continents and at the same time a member of the royal family. And the present Continental Ten, not before. Location was different.

“Why did you come all the way here?”

“It’s a separate conversation with the emperor. We’re talking about it here, so it’s better to go in and talk.”

“……All right”

Although it was awkward to look at, it seemed that he knew how to distinguish between construction work.

I entered the tent under his guidance. There are fewer things placed here than I thought, probably because he uses them personally.

“I’ll bring the car”

“No, that’s fine. Aren’t you close enough to talk over tea anyway?”

It is better to draw a line and talk briefly than to talk vaguely over tea.

I explained the situation to him first. My coming here, talking with the emperor, and even the handwritten letter the emperor wrote to me.

After reading the letter and confirming the emperor’s handwriting, he understood the circumstances in which I had come this far.

“It’s Zantman…”

“He’s the culprit behind everything. No, now that I think about it, there’s a possibility that the empress was also influenced by him.”

“Isn’t it a bit of a leap?”

“Considering the current situation, it’s a reasonable doubt.”

He wants trouble. What would have happened if the empress had still remained in the palace?

First of all, he should have pushed the crown prince older brother to become emperor, and then a war broke out with the older sister who rebelled against it… In the end, it was a civil war.

Oh, of course there is no compromise. No matter how powerful it may be, who joins hands with the bitch who killed her parents?

If a civil war broke out like that, it would be what the guy who was already in the war wanted. To be honest, I think it would have been a mess if it hadn’t been for me.

With that in mind, what I do is reasonable doubt. I thought about it now, but it was a story that fits pretty well.

Still, if I thought this way, an emperor smarter than me would have reached there a long time ago and was already investigating, so I wouldn’t have to worry about it.

“I want to read the records I’ve investigated so far. If I demolish this place of delusion, the duke can return to the ecliptic, so please.”

“……..All right”

First of all, a lot of information is good. You can just go in and demolish it, but it’s a specification to do it for nothing.

I handled the Black Forest relatively well, but I did poorly on the Northern Islands, and Rubys got hurt. There’s a luminous nearby right now…… I’ve attached a wire, but it’s better to reduce dangerous things as much as possible.

And I felt a little bit ominous.
