By the time the quiet of the night envelops the king's capital.

In this season of beautiful greenery, in the middle of the night, there is still chilly air.

In the meantime, in contrast to the air, only a rush appeared in the castle.

It's been about hours since I got into bed, and when Ain was resting as usual.

Suddenly, Ain's bedtime ends with his service.

Ain then was on his way to a meeting room in the castle as he hurriedly stepped on a thick carpet.

……

Many thoughts were complicated behind Ain's brain walking with a strange face.

There was an unparalleled number of incidents in Heim where there was no plan to be involved again, so there was no way to think about it.

Having returned from the talks, Ain't thought to be so quick and confused by Heim's story.

"- Your Highness!"

"Ah. Quick, but we're going in."

"Ha!"

Arriving in the conference room of his destination, Ain speaks to the knight who was his turn at the entrance.

Hearing the words, the knight opened the door to the conference room.

Then everyone in the room pays attention to Ain, and a moment of silence comes.

"Never mind, keep talking"

When Ain said a word, he sat in the back, taking his feet toward the seat where the heavy towns waited.

Then, partly because of the situation, he immediately looked as noisy as he had been.

In the conference room, several nobles were called today as well as the usual faces.

Some of them are Leonard's father, telling the story of the magnitude of the matter.

"Excuse me, I'm late"

Seat in the back of arrival.

There, two people, Silvard and Warren, sat with a strange face.

"I don't mind. It was a sudden report, and there would have been some support."

Hearing Ain's apology, Silvard allowed it.

There was a sudden report today, and Ain was woken up abruptly in bed.

For these reasons, there was no reason to be late.

"Thank you"

Thanking Silvard for his words, Ein sits down in his seat.

Krone wasn't staying at the castle today either, or he hadn't arrived on this spot yet.

"How far are we talking?

While you are away, Ain asks how far the story went.

"Not yet. I was just checking to see what the situation was, so let's start there again"

"Oh. Please."

I'm relieved by Warren's words and ask him to check the situation again.

"… then, first of all, from information received from a secret detective about the deceased"

That's how Warren started talking about reports from undercover detectives.

"It is several aristocrats who have suffered the damage, but notably, the Second Prince of the Kingdom of Haim and Lord Isis of Roundheart are among the victims. The Prince alone is important, but with the death of the former Princess of the Grand General's house, things are even bigger."

A woman named Isis is a grandmother to Ain.

The information on Isis sounds more shocking to Ein than the information that the second prince was killed.

"Mr. Warren, go on"

It's a lot to worry about, but let's start by checking the information.

Warren takes a peek at Ain's expression and Ain prompts him to continue immediately.

"-... the incident came to light also because all the victims' necks were delivered to the castle"

"... you have a bad taste"

Ein also felt bad about the offense that made him nauseous even if he just asked.

"It was delivered that night when a line of Heim returned home. I mean, last night..."

You mean the incident was going on during the meeting with us?

"Yes, I thought Ein was right."

It has only been two days since the talks ended.

Even so, because this is how it becomes a commotion, I am irritated by unspeakable emotions.

The fact that a case had occurred during the talks.

It's a cheap decision, but it can obviously be described as an offense aimed at that period.

But the advantages and motives for doing so were refreshing.

"... what do you think's going on with Heim by now?

"There is also the depression accumulated at the talks, and this case early on back home. Perhaps swallowed by incalculable negative emotions."

"- I knew you were right."

Sigh how tired Ain is.

Then Silvard opens his mouth in anticipation of the time.

"But there's no way we're not moving either. So, Warren."

"Yep... I thought Your Majesty was right."

"A hegemonic country for the continent. That's where these incidents happened, so the continent can't be unshakeable."

- War.

That passes behind Ein's brain.

Ain't had nothing to do with what's easy to understand war, he sweats a muscle in his neck.

"I don't want to think about it, but depending on the circumstances of the search for the killer, it becomes war.... Is that what Grandpa thinks?

"Exactly. I don't think that king will do anything. I wish we could find the killer in Heim, but in case you think about it, we can't deny that it will affect Euro as well"

"... Dear Ein. I have the same idea as His Majesty. If we don't find the killer within the last few days, that continent will enter wartime."

"Oh. I really don't want to think about it, but maybe I will."

"So, Your Majesty. In Euro is a transport ship, albeit armed. I'll dispatch about two large battleships, are you sure?

And if they are troubled, they will use their ships to evacuate the people of Lord Amur and of Euro.

And because it is Euro, surrounded by many headlands, an attack on a battleship from the sea would be highly effective even if Heim came in.

"I don't mind. Let Warren handle it."

"I'm in awe. Well, at my discretion."

As Warren nodded, Silvard went on to say a few more words.

"If Heim has led the army, he will also be responsible for permitting intimidation shooting and other things. All right?"

"Ha. As you wish"

If you listen to the conversation between the two of you, you feel the war really looming.

I don't know if I can describe this as happiness, but Ein is relieved that there is no direct relationship with Ishtarika.

That said, this tension will never go away.

"Grandpa. Using royalty. But shouldn't we forcibly protect the Augusto people?

"I know. - Warren, what about the Augustos?

"You should protect it. The situation is the situation, so I was wondering, as Ein said, should we protect it even if it is somewhat forceful?"

This incident is aimed not only at the royal family, but also at a number of aristocrats, including the Roundheart family.

In these circumstances, there is no guarantee that the Augusto family will not be targeted.

And if there is someone who can assassinate the royalty, it becomes synonymous with the fact that Elena and the others are not safe.

"Hard work, but plan by dawn"

"I'm in awe. Let's think about some things."

"Mr. Warren. As soon as we're done with the planning, can we just move on to execution?

"Yeah, I'll take care of it. The day is already changing, so I was wondering if I could do something by the end of the day."

The relieved ein reaches out to the water placed on the table.

Thinking about it, I was thirsty for karakara because I hadn't drunk anything since I was suddenly woken up.

Ain't got nothing but water in his mouth, but his thirst and nervousness made it feel like a treat.

Drinking up a glass of water, Ein finally takes a breath of comfort.

"But I wonder how lightly guarded it is to assassinate a royal family, or if the powerful did so"

"Hmm...... What do you think, Warren?"

Warren's Opinion in Trouble.

As usual, Silvard talks to Warren.

"It's a case in talks, so he was finishing the crime in that short time. I mean, I was wondering if the theory of the powerful was intense."

When Warren thinks about it for a few seconds, he mouths his thoughts one by one.

"It's an anomaly. Even though more than one nobleman is just assassinated, that includes royalty and the Grand General's family. For Heim, it would be a case like no other in the past."

"... as much as I think about it, it doesn't seem like Heim's human offense."

"Me too, Dear Ein. There are too many advantages and motives. At least, it's not a crime that someone in the city well can commit."

"Thinking about it, I guess people from other countries will be the culprits"

Someone who can enter the castle of Heim and has a face for some nobles.

Ein thought it was the killer, but he obviously felt he couldn't.

Anyway, if such a person becomes the culprit, then the culprit will have already been found, and the case should be on its way to convergence.

And the fact that there is no sign of heading towards convergence is still the crime of someone from another country, I guess.

"... By the way, Dear Ein. It's a little hard to hear, but I just want to ask you something this time."

"Hmm? What's going on?

I look at Ain't like Warren can't tell me, but Ain't just telling me not to worry about it and I answer it.

"Lord Isis has been assassinated. If so, what action will Lord Logus and Lord Grint take? Can you tell us from your past figures and give us your opinion on what will happen?

"Oh... you mean that. Nothing, I'm glad you don't mind so much."

As for his former family, Warren was thinking about Ein's mood.

But Ain't always been the same, but he still looks calm.

"Not now, but as a family, I don't think so. The death may be sad, but there's no further emotion."

Ain't going to say anything bad about the deceased, so Ain't finished talking about Isis to this extent.

Next, the answer to Warren's question.

"Is that guy (Logus), Isis...? was strongly influenced by the language of Like the day I first met Krone. I was supposed to be the star that day, but I used to say words that pushed Grint and force him to do it."

Now that I think about it, in addition to meeting Krone with it, I was able to come to Ishtarika.

Let's just say it wasn't about resentment if you only spoke of the consequences.

Also, I got lost in the way I called Isis because I called Laralua my grandmother, and now I had a slight aversion to calling Isis my grandmother.

"So I may be stunned by the death of my real mother. But I'm sure he'll think of his enemies."

In retrospect of Logus' attitude towards Isis, it seemed natural to do so.

"I see. Thanks for letting me know. Besides, it's a royal issue, so it's still going to involve the continent."

Warren talks about it sighingly, seemingly troublesome.

"I'm sure you will. I don't even want to think about it."

Ain then answered Warren with a bitter laugh.

Anyway, this topic early on home, Ein's fatigue will be even greater.

"Damn... even here, there's still the problem with the red fox... but..."

Anyway, I just recently finished my investigation at Magna.

In retrospect of it, Ein leaks his voice like a shudder, but when he groans with the red fox, his vision widens like something connected.

"Red Fox...?

Ain then makes his head work desperately.

Silverado asks him how he is wondering that he began to think in silence.

"Ain? What's wrong, suddenly quiet..."

Silvard talks worryingly, but Ain't got that word in Ain's ear.

Ain't never been more focused.

Likewise, Warren stared worryingly, but with Silvard's failure to reach his word, he decides to wait quietly for Ain's reply.

By the time that lasted about a minute, Ain finally looked up.

"One thing you may have noticed is trouble."

Assassination of nobles, arguably this anomaly.

How can anyone on that continent do that without knowing?

Amidst these assumptions, Ein remembered the Red Fox.

"Trouble?

"Dear Ein. What the hell is that trouble...?

If we light up the information that the Red Fox crossed the ocean, we can also be somewhat convinced that we targeted these periods.

"Yes, that hassle is..."

Ishtalika should have had no direct connection to the incident.

However, Ain made one hypothesis out of these predictions.

The country Ishtarika may have already been forced to take the stage.

Ain't nothing more than a hypothesis yet, but Ain't telling the two of us the words, also with the desire to end with a hypothesis like this.

"- This assassination may involve the Red Fox"

Until now, I've been desperate to keep looking for clues to the Red Fox.

But even such an ein, it took courage to utter these words.

... because the word "war" never really burned in the back of my brain and left me.
