Chapter 56: The Righteousness of the King
"Astelle!"
"Joshua, you've suppressed the fighters of the Intelligence Department?"
"Ahh Joshua nodded and said, "Colonel Richard and Second Lieutenant Lorens are not in the city, so I'm worried about your situation here. β
"Second Lieutenant Lawrence just fought me and is now gone. Reilly spoke first, muffling Estelle's words back.
"That's right...... In short, everyone can be safe. β
"Your Majesty, I'm glad you're okay. β
"Lieutenant Yulia...... I'm really happy to see you again. Alicia smiled and said, "And all the guerrillas, this time I am really grateful. β
"It is also a great honour to receive Her Majesty's compliment. "Olivier is rarely serious.
"We're happy to be able to serve you. Kim said with a smile.
"Guys, it's not time to relax yet. Alicia sighed and said, "A great catastrophe is coming. In any case, we are going to stop Colonel Richard. β
"W-What's going on?" asked Yuria, confused.
"Yesterday, I discussed with the colonel for a long time and finally understood his motives for the coup. Alysia said with a solemn face, "He wants to take the Ring of Radiance for himself." β
"Ring of Radiance......" Estelle said in surprise, "I think I've heard of this thing somewhere......"
"The Ring of Radiance is the Void Treasure among the Seven Treasures. Reilly looked at Alicia and said, "The royal family should know about this, right?"
"Definitely. The queen nodded and said, "'The Ring of Radiance, one day it will bring calamity, connecting the soul of the son of man to purgatory. We, in order to exist as human beings, seal them ...... in the dim narrows' these proverbs...... As a precept passed down by word of mouth by successive kings to this day. Now, I'll pass it on to you...... Kolotia. β
"Grandmother, I'...... Although I came here with everyone's help, I ......" Coros said uneasily, "I don't know if I can take on such a great responsibility......"
"So, are you going to give up the throne?" Reilly said, looking into Kloss's eyes, "Do you want to evade your responsibilities because of your lack of self-confidence?"
"No, no......" Kloss's body began to tremble, but she still insisted on making eye contact with Reilly: "I want to help everyone, and I want to protect Libel...... However, I don't know if I can do it......"
"Look......, Kloss," Reilly said, gesturing to the people around him, "everyone here is willing to help you, so you don't have to worry about that at all." β
"But if I make the wrong choice, I'll put my friends in a dangerous position......" Coros said uneasily, "I'm afraid I'll hurt them......"
"Huh. Reilly smiled and said, "Child, your fear is the harbinger of the awakening of the king's heart." β
"Huh?" said Kloss, a stunned expression.
"Being able to clearly recognize your weaknesses is a great thing in itself. However, knowing that the road ahead is full of thorns, you still insist on protecting those around you. Reilly touched the girl's head and said, "This is the justice of the king." β

"Here, how can there be a guide ladder here?!" Yulia exclaimed, "There was absolutely no one before!"
"I think the reason why Richard is going to stage the coup d'Γ©tat is to build this ladder. Reilly smiled. said: "After all, only by controlling the royal city in your own hands can you act as you like." β
"Shall we take this ladder, then, to Colonel Richard?" asked Estelle.
"Of course. Reilly walked over to the console and inserted a magnetic card into it. Since he had his back to the people, no one saw it.
(The white-faced guy said "To make sure it's safe, please spy on Estelle and them", and then he doesn't know where to run to get soy sauce...... Really, if you're afraid of failure, don't let the disruptors into the work area!Damn four-eyed bastard!If it weren't for the fear of an accident with the Ring of Radiance, I wouldn't have bothered with your shit!)
Reilly knew that even if he didn't care about this matter, "White Face" would use other methods to help Estelle and the others enter the sealing area below the royal city. Rather than letting that four-eyed bastard mess around, it's better to lead the rhythm yourself.
"W-What the hell is this......" After the guide ladder stopped, Estelle and the others were stunned by the sight that greeted them.
Looking at the sci-fi movie-like scene, Reilly said with a smile: "This is a relic of the ancient Semria civilization, proof that the guidance technology has reached its peak." β
