PS: Thank you for the tip of the pigs in the world, and thank you for the monthly pass of Rebellion の Soul §Z

August 30, fine.

The inhabitants of Bern are in for another unfriendly summer.

The reason is the weather here, of course.

The winds blowing in the Haysting area before May come from the more southerly Miscart Ocean, and although it generally bears the disadvantage of the peculiar fishy smell of the sea, the air with water vapor is still very cool and refreshing.

But in May, the situation is different.

The change of climate caused the original sea breeze to completely reach the Haisting area, instead of the hot wind blowing from the desert in the west, the plants dried up and withered, and the sand and dust were everywhere, which can be said to be the most difficult period of time in the Haisting area, even if the Bern area was blocked by mountains and blocked most of the sand and dust, but the hot wind from the hottest area of the world still penetrated into the protective net formed by the mountains, adding a fire to the already hot summer.

This weather will continue until October, and people are languishing in anticipation of the arrival of winter. Because of this, the work and rest of the people of Haisting during this period is reversed day and night, and people only go out after the sun goes down, and they are active until late at night, and they get up early in the morning after taking a nap, and continue to fall asleep at noon.

So when the seventh prince, Estud, who had taken a good nap, entered the cloister that connected the front of the council hall, he saw the guards, attendants, and servants unable to hide their tired faces.

This was a normal sight in the summer, but to Estud's strange sight, he saw a lot of guards whispering.

Estud looked for a moment and walked to a corner of the cloister. There, a young man dressed as a guard was chatting with a maid in a white dress, and the two of them were engrossed. Didn't notice Estud's arrival at all.

"Eller, what are you talking about?"

Estud's voice rang out behind the squire Eller. Eller shuddered suddenly, and turned around in a posture that almost jumped up: "Your Highness...... Good day......"

The maid with a delicate face was also so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't say anything.

"Okay, okay, I'm not the third brother, I'm not interested in taking care of your private affairs, let's go. The black-haired prince waved his hand casually.

When the maid in white heard this, she saluted and then turned and walked away quickly, like a frightened rabbit.

Eller wanted to leave, too. However, Estud's words suddenly dashed his hopes: "Eller, don't go, did you sneak out of the city again today?"

Eller looked at the Seventh Prince with a bitter face, hesitated, and said slowly: "Yes...... Yes...... Your Highness ......"

"What do you see?" said Estud stared at Eller with a smirk, like a viper staring only at a frog.

"Frog" Eller was helpless, he knew very well that although Estud seemed to be kind, he was not a good lord to serve, so he had to tell what he saw: "Tell Your Highness, my subordinates saw the return of the army sent by Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess to suppress bandits. ”

"It's not surprising. There are still more than ten times in a year, and I haven't seen you talk so happily before. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, nothing else. It was the team that brought back a cart of heads, and I heard that the newly appointed 'butcher' had cut them down by his own hands, and Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess also went to greet them...... "The mountain people from the Mira Mountains are not afraid to fight. But there is still some resistance to cutting off the enemy's body parts as trophies.

"The eldest sister also went?"

Estud touched his chin and thought about it for a moment. He waved his hand and let Eyler, who was waiting on the side, leave. I walked towards the council hall.

Entering the hall, the eldest prince Flomien and the third prince Flanagan were already seated at the round table.

"Boss, third brother, do you know what I saw?" Estud burst out as soon as he entered the hall.

The two of them, who had long been accustomed to Estud's style, didn't look at him, and each was busy with his own business.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, Estud, who couldn't help it, took the initiative to speak: "Do you know what the big sister is called Hagesa Battalion, and the team of the Hagesa battalion has returned, I heard that ......."

As he said this, a document flew over, and Estud subconsciously caught it.

"See for yourself. The blonde-haired third prince said coldly.

“...... Two days of marching, one day of fighting, one day of post-battle processing, and two days of return...... Strangled four hundred, did not capture them, and completely destroyed the Ashura's gang......" Estud sat down in his seat, unfolded the document, and read out the contents of it.

This is information about the results of the suppression of bandits in the Ashura, and it is obvious that these two have known the news for a long time.

"Your news is too slow, and now the heads of the robbers are salted and hung at the gates......" Flanagan added.

"Stained, that's a good result, I heard that the leader is a newcomer, do you have any information about him?" Estud closed the papers, and put his feet on the table.

"Tulle, from the minority of Pulpasacra, is said to be the best of a group of people that the eldest sister cultivated very early, has been working as a mercenary outside, and has just returned to Bern......" Flanagan read out the false information about Gehr's identity that Saloras had deliberately released.

"Forget it, the eldest sister started really early, I originally wanted to dig into the wall, and I still lack a few excellent low-level commanders on my side. Estud grumbled twice, and stopped caring. No matter how well he performs, Gehr has already been labeled as a princess, and such a low-level commander can't affect the overall situation, and they don't have similar talents, and they don't care about Gehr in their hearts. "Boss, how did you talk to your eldest sister?"

Salorath promised not to interfere, and she would not care about the affairs of the city. Flomien replied in a deep voice.

"That's good, my people are all ready these days, just waiting for your orders, boss. Estud exclaimed excitedly.

"What's the hurry! We need to consider all the factors, this time is related to the survival of our Haysting, and it is not something that can be messed around casually!" Flanagan scolded.

"The third child is right, now those big countries are staring at us, don't look at their own messes, as long as we have a mess here, their hands will stretch out faster than anyone else. Flomien nodded in agreement with Flanagan.

"Then you can't just drag it all the time......" The boss nodded, and Estud, the younger brother, could only comply, and of course muttering a few words was inevitable.

"Don't worry, the time has been chosen......

Flomien stood up, the shadow of his massive body in the sunlight obscuring the two younger brothers opposite.

......

After reporting the results of the bandit crackdown with Salorath, Gehr left the reception room of Sanssouci Palace and went to the Silver Hall under the escort of two Silver Radiance Iron Guards.

Located on the outskirts of the Sanssouci complex, the Silver Hall can be said to be at the forefront of defending Sanssouci Palace, and after taking over the task of defending it, Gehr moved here.

Similar to the overall architectural style of Sanssouci Palace, the Silver Hall is also built entirely of white stone, and the ornate style is consistent with other buildings, such as ornamental plants such as flowers can be seen everywhere, exuding a refreshing fragrance, and it is a picturesque place.

Of course, that was without those quiet, machine-like silver guards.

Each Silver Iron Guard was fully armed, with a front breastplate, back armor, shoulder armor, and skirt armor, and spikes half a palm-length were distributed on the outside of the armor's stomach, which looked hideous and terrifying, and the heavy cloak gave people a cold and gloomy feeling.

The maid guards who passed by along the way saluted him in awe.

To enter the Silver Radiance Palace, you pass through a large pavilion, which is where the people waiting to receive the Celestia are staying.

It was almost night, and heavy clouds were beginning to dominate the sky, making the light a little overcast and the wind a little stronger, a sign of an impending thunderstorm.

There were not many people in the pavilion, and most of them were leisurely looking for a shady seat to sit, drinking the drinks sent by the maids to relieve the heat, waiting for the order of the eldest princess to summon them.

When Gehr came to the pavilion, a white-clothed maid happened to enter the pavilion and said something, when a man sitting in the corner stood up and followed the maid towards the main hall where Salorath was, which coincided with Gehr's direction.

It was a very strong man, his gray coat was stretched to the extreme by his strong muscles, and what was even more strange was that he wore a mask on his face. It was a silver mask, with only a slender hole in the eyes and mouth, and a cold light emerged from the holes in the eyes.

If you see this scene in the usual sun, the person who sees it will laugh a lot, because the mask gives a very dramatic impression, much like the props used in the funny professions of the circus, not like the things in the real world.

However, the thick clouds block the sunlight, and all the scenery is immersed in a dark atmosphere like the ink paintings unique to the Gantt Empire, and the mask seems to gather all the ominous things in this world in such an environment.

At this time, when she saw the white-clothed maid of the queen Geer, she immediately bowed down respectfully to Geer, and even the man had to bend down and salute.

"Who is this?" said Gehr, pausing and asking the maid.

"Back to my lord, that person is a guest of Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, an adventurer from the Mira Mountains. The maid in white quickly replied.

Gehr bowed slightly, stopped talking, and continued to walk forward, and in a few steps passed by the two of them, at this time the maid and the masked straightened up again, and walked towards the main hall.

"Go, follow them. Gehr dropped a sentence suddenly.

Behind him, the two heavy boots of the Silver Iron Guard trampled on the ground, saluted Gehr, and immediately turned to follow the direction of the Masked Man.

Bang!

A muffled thunder sounded enough to delight the entire Bern people, and a fleeting flash of electric light quickly completed the switch between darkness and light between heaven and earth, and was reflected on Geer's face, flickering uncertainly.

Let's go.

There was a soft sound, and Gehr only felt that his face was wet.

It's raining...... (To be continued......)
