"Why doesn't Master Kwang Pak move?"
Chi-wan sounded exasperated. Ikkak lets out a small sigh. At that mont, the emperor opens his mouth with a forlorn expression on his face.
"Perhaps he intends to die with the treasure.
"Not exactly."
"What do you an, narwhal?"
"I'm just admiring the beauty of it."
What?
"Unable to move."
The emperor scratches his cheeks with an expression that says he doesn't quite understand what narwhal is saying.
"Sir, can't we leave Kwang Pak alone now?"
Chi-wan can't bear to look at him and opens his mouth. In response, the emperor shakes his head slowly.
"No. "No. It is dangerous to leave him alone. He is capable of creating a magic sucking stone.
When he had said all that, he muttered in a small voice.
"A narwhal. Take him by force. I am willing to take extraordinary asures."
"Well, my Lord, would you like to go?"
"There, my dear? Do you have a plan?
Yes, well...
I don't know what kind of a man Kwang Pak is, but we can lock him up in the spatial magic that the great-grandmother gave us. After so practice and investigation, I had so idea of how to use spatial magic. I don't want him to co here after being pushed around by narwhals and cause problems later on. Worst case scenario, if he's a man who can't be helped, we can lock him up sowhere. I figured that if I went, things would go peacefully.
"At ......, I'll be really, really grateful to you."
"Oh, never mind."
"But ...... I don't an to speak out of Maro's mouth, but ...... he's quite the odd man out, isn't he?"
"It's okay. I'm also a pervert who thinks it's funny when I see angry or unusual people.
"...... I'm sure we'll get along just fine there."
The Kwanpaks were known to Doki, so he, Chi-wan, myself, and the emperor escorted Cure Light to the house. My skills did not require a particular escort, but the emperor insisted on taking her with him, saying he could not risk her getting hurt there. We had no choice but to move to Kwanpak's house with a wry smile on our faces.
As soon as we arrived at the house, we saw a big gate. The gate seed to be tightly closed, but when we pushed it, we could open it easily. I entered the house, but there was no sign of anyone, and my voice echoed in vain as I said, "I'm sorry.
It was pitch black inside the house. I cast a light spell to brighten the area around . And when I used the presence detection, I found ....... There seed to be dozens of people gathered in one room. I start to walk toward it.
It was a really huge house. I couldn't see much, but there seed to be a waterfall in the garden, and the sound of falling water echoed in the darkness. We finally arrived at the room where we could see people gathering.
"Um, ...... sorry."
When I entered the room, everyone turned their backs to for so reason. I call out to them several tis, but no one responds to my voice. As we looked at each other to see what was going on, we suddenly heard high-pitched shouts of anger.
"BONKAKA! Turn it off! Turn it off!"
I looked in the direction of the voice, but could not see him. While I was puzzled, I saw a figure coming from the darkness, weaving its way through the people.
"Don't be tactless! Turn off the lights!"
"...... Lord Kwanpac."
Cure Light mutters quietly. It seems that the small man who is snapping at us is Kwanpak himself. If you look closely, you can see that he looks sowhat like the emperor. However, his eyes and atmosphere give a hint of madness.
"I told you to turn off the light!"
He suddenly turned off the light on my palm. He turned on his heel and went away again. We were so caught up in the mont that we could not speak for a while. But right after that, we suddenly heard a voice that sounded like Kwang Pak's exclamation from earlier.
"That's so cool! I knew it!"
We went in the direction of the voice and wondered what the hell was going on. There seed to be quite a number of people crowded around the house, who seed to be the servants of the house, watching with bated breath the behavior of this maniacal master.
Kwan Pak was in the garden. There was a ray of light shining overhead toward the pond. It seed that the light was miraculously reaching through the rocks that had accumulated above the boundary.
A ray of light in the darkness. A ray of light in the darkness, surrounded by faintly visible dust and dirt ....... They create an indescribable pattern: ....... The pattern changes its appearance from mont to mont....... A world that will never look the sa again...... It's beautiful!"
...... sounds like he is on the verge of apology or rustication. I decide that I'm not going to get anywhere with this, so I instantly put out an oversized light to light up the area around .
"What are you doing! ...... is a great place to start. My carefully poured garden looks ...... nice like this! Steki ......."
I silently locked him in the ward and let him sleep. Then, I call out to the Kwang Pak family, who are wide-eyed in amazent at the sight.
"Yes, everyone, we're evacuating! You are the only ones in the country now. It's not safe here. The sky is covered with rocks. I will now take you to the land of Agartha. Don't worry. I am proud to say that it is a good country. We can co back to this country when it is safe. First of all, do you all have ...... your personal belongings? Oh, you were trying to evacuate and gathered here, but this ossa ......, no, Mr. Kwanpak didn't move? Well, thank you very much for your hard work. Shall we take shelter then?
Just to be sure, I searched the house with a scent detector and found so people in another place. We must save these people, but first we must evacuate those who are here.
Then we went back to the Kwampak's house to rescue those who were left behind. It seed to be a room where the won lived, and it had a glamorous atmosphere like no other room in the house. And at the end of the room, there seem to be three people. I carefully open the sliding door of the room, though the map seems to indicate that they are not bandits.
I opened the sliding door carefully. ...... There were three people, Hagee, Zeza, and Shiron. The mont he saw , Zeza started talking fast.
"Again! I told you we will not move! How many tis do I have to tell you! You're not very perceptive! Well, the lady told you that, didn't she? But I will not move even on your orders! Hey! You know what I an. Well, you see... Good boy."
"Zeza, wait! That man! You~!"
Hargi suddenly pulled out his sword and slashed at . I smashed her sword with my hand. Hāgi's expression of disbelief is on his face as he holds his sword in the ready position and blasts off toward the wall.
"Rude ......."
Cure Light is holding up his hand. It seems that he was sending out a shockwave at the sa ti I broke my sword. Shiron's eyes were black and white, and he looked as if he didn't know what to do. Then, Zeza opened his mouth.
"...... OWARA! Oh yeah! Orders from the emperor! You have co to take our lives! Let us, don, bang, bash, giri, dos, bong, gan gan palin, jush~dwah~, dari dari, baaan no, gaan de, zwashaaaa~."
"Shut up."
I instantly put a ward on Zeza and put her to sleep. Hagee seems to have been knocked out by the shockwave earlier, so I leave her alone. I go to Shiron and ask her while crouching down.
"Why were you here?"
"That ......, that ......, that ...... Master Orjin..."
"Auzin has gone to the Kingdom of Thana, you know?"
"Maybe he'll co back ......, so ...... we'll all ...... wait for him."
Tears were welling up in Shiron's eyes. Apparently, this is Auzin's room. The girls were trying to protect this room in case Auzin might co back.
"It's okay. The house is not going to disappear anyti soon. Let's get everyone to a safe place first. If we die, we won't be able to see Aujin, will we?
Shiron nodded his head, tears streaming down his cheeks at my words.
"......, it's all over."
As soon as we had sent the girls back to Agartha, we were transferred to the emperor. He bowed deeply to with a relieved expression on his face.
"The emperor and the empress will be taken to the guest house of Agartha. We have to take care of the Empress's health. ......"
I'm sorry. This will take years to complete. ......"
"Yes. I look forward to it."
We exchanged smiles. Then Doki asked if we should go. I looked at him and the others and asked them if they wanted to move on. He smiles at , but then, as if rembering sothing, he wanders out to the porch. Then he slowly looked around the palace as if he was saying goodbye.
"My Imperial Highness, ......"
Doki tried to go to the side, but I restrained him with my hand. I looked closely and saw that his shoulders were shaking slightly.
"I'm sorry. ...... Father, I'm sorry. ...... Mother, I'm sorry. ...... I'm sorry. ......"
He bowed his head, his voice trembling. We could do nothing but watch him in silence.
