"Ozin and Satsuki! What in the world for?"
I scread out in a crazy voice. That's right. No matter how hard I looked for them, I could never find them. I have a bad feeling that they will make a move now.
"Hmm. Maro was surprised when he first heard about it. But it is rare to find soone who uses spatial magic. Maro hasn't seen him yet, but from what he's told , he's probably Satsuki."
They say that the last ti they appeared in Agartha was a few days ago. They had entered Agartha via the Principality of Niza.
So where are they now?
"I think they are in a city called Shetra."
"......"
Shetra is a small town a day's walk from the capital of Agartha. I use the map to check out the town, but there seems to be no one who is hostile to . Then the voice of the emperor rings out again.
"Are you looking for a female magician through the guild? Apparently, that's where Satsuki showed up."
"Ah."
I look at him longingly. I rembered that Princess Rufana had told that she was going to recruit a lady-in-waiting through the guild when she was going to bring her mother to Agartha.
I heard that the Queen Sulphate is mainly guarded by n, but she feels it is inconvenient for her because won are sotis needed in such a situation. Therefore, it was Princess Rufana's wish to have a few female attendants by her side if she would settle down in Agartha.
However, the criteria she indicated were very high. She wanted soone who could handle at least one or two magic of level 3 or above, and who had served a noble family before. From Rufana's point of view, it was only natural that he should have good skills as a servant close to the queen, but he also had to have good manners. However, it is difficult to teach them manners and culture from scratch due to ti constraints. That's why the application process is so hard. ....... When I heard this, I thought in my mind that no one would apply. Even if they did, they would either be overconfident or ignorant. However, I had never expected Satsuki to apply.
"......"
I close my eyes and look up to the heavens in silence. In such a state, the emperor continued to speak.
"Ikkaku!"
"Ha!"
"Who among the Owara knows the faces of Satsuki and the others?"
"Cure Light knows."
So, Cure Light. He, go to the city of Shetra and keep an eye on Satsuki and Aujin.
Gyoi.
No, please wait.
It was Doki who interrupted. He looked at the emperor and slowly opened his mouth.
"If they are the Owara, Satsuki may know their faces. I've seen him at the palace several tis. There is a fear that Mr. Curewright might recognize him. ......"
"Don't worry."
Cure Light counters in a calm voice. Her face is expressionless, but she seems to be sowhat miffed. But Doki, undaunted by her, continues to speak.
"Besides, if ...... Cure Light-san is gone, the Empress will be ...... guarded."
"But don't worry about that."
Ikkaku says firmly. But still Doki continues to speak.
"No, it was Mr. Curewright who has been guarding the Empress' side for the past few months. The OWARA people can simply be replaced, but what about the Empress? Wouldn't you be perplexed to suddenly have an unknown person serving at your side? If not for that, the Empress has just given birth to a son. Wouldn't that cause her unnecessary trouble?"
Well, Doki certainly has a point. The Empress is silent and still, her eyes downcast. She must feel more secure with Cure Light by her side. Well, if that's the case, I was about to think ...... when I heard Roni's voice.
"Then there is only one option, isn't there?
"What? What do you an, Roni?"
"The story is simple. Doki, you go.
"What? ? No,...... I'd love to go,...... but I can't face Satsuki and Mr. Ozin,......"
"We can ask Linos-sama to put up a ward."
"What?"
"Master Linos, Master i once put up a ward that made it look like Posehay, we can put up that sa ward on Doki."
"Ah, I see, that's true.
I reply with a wry smile. Oh yeah, I forgot I had that skill.
"Well, ...... I don't mind, but ......"
"But what? You can use telepathy, you can use transference. Isn't that perfect?
"No, that's true, but I have a ...... store ......."
"You can do it when you have free ti. The other party may not be on the move 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. They are human beings, so they must have ti to sleep and rest. You can do your store at that ti.
Roni is nodding his head as he speaks, but what he is saying is outrageous. He is telling Doki that if he wants him to take care of the store, he has to do it around the clock. This is just terrible.
"That ......"
It was Tarma who opened her mouth apologetically. She glanced at our faces and began to speak in a faltering manner.
"If you don't mind, I'd like to ....... Would you like to take over for you while Mr. Doki takes care of the store?"
"What?"
"As I recall, the store is only open for a few hours in the morning, right? If it's just for that amount of ti, I'll watch over it for you. ......No, I can't fight you, but I think I can at least keep an eye on you. If there is any danger, I will tell you by telephoning, and if there is danger, you can escape by shifting."
...... all eyes are on . Looks like I have to be the judge.
"I'm still concerned about Satsuki and Aujin's movents. I still need to keep an eye on them.
"But,linos......"
"It's okay, Rico. It's okay. Doki, can you do that for ?
"Yes, ...... I'd be happy to do it if that's okay with you."
"No, Dorky doesn't have to watch him all the ti. Of course, we'll put up a ward to make you look like soone else, but we'll leave the watching to soone else."
"What?"
"All Doki has to do is take over Satsuki and Auzin's information."
"Ha...... haha."
I open my mouth with a smile. Then, I quietly whisper sothing to Riko, who is standing by my side. She looks at for a mont, but then returns to a serious expression and leaves the room, muttering, "I'll go first.
"Mr. Linos, ...... what on earth are you ...... doing?"
"I'm fine. Doki has nothing to worry about. But I'm sorry to trouble you, but could you please transfer us to the Shetra now? And I want you to find out where Satsuki and Auzin are. And, Teijin-sama, ......."
I turn to the Lord. He ets my gaze and straightens his back.
"Would you mind escorting one of the owaras to Doki?"
The emperor turns his attention to narwhal. He bows his head and murmurs in a low, clear voice.
"Yes, sir."
"Then let's put a ward on Doki now. Then imdiately transfer with the Owaras. ...... Tarma, don't look so worried. I'll send a replacent by dawn. Dawki will be back soon. Dawki will take over when his replacent arrives and leave imdiately.
Then I looked around at everyone and continued speaking.
"Behind Satsuki and Auzin, there will probably be a fox nad Hayes. He is not a simple man. I want everyone except Doki to be on their guard.
Everyone nodded vigorously at my words.
