Mission No.2 Tower of Seal (01)
“You probably know very well that the beginning is the most important thing in anything.
Even if it’s not such a trite story that you have to put the first button well, I think it’s now in a position to figure out how big an impact the beginning has on the overall work.”
The prince, who threw those words at me with a mean expression, gave off a slightly mocking nuance.
Out of temper, I wanted to knock him down and step on him for three months and ten days, but since he was the emperor’s son, I silently listened to him.
“I know, Crown Prince. However, I have seen a lot of longevity who started off well and ended up like X.”
“… Your tone is quite rough.”
“Then it might be better to say something like ‘It’s reckless!’ Or ‘You bastard!’ Or ‘Bring it out!’
Crown Prince Elderly. It’s okay to say that if your stomach hurts.”
He must have thought that if he frowned at his appearance, he would be scared. The prince glared at me with an expression of eating feces.
“Such an erratic…”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s rough or dirty. I can guess what your intention was with me, but I won’t die no matter how threatened you are.”
“I want you to die.”
“I made it clear that I would not die.”
The prince looked at me with almost burning eyes. But I will never die
“… sh*t. Then I must die.”
With those words, the prince put the thing in his hand down on the floor.
And the princess, who was listening to our conversation, couldn’t stand it and shouted.
“Do some work! Why are you talking so bloody while playing poker? What will passersby think when they hear it!”
However, our prince opened her mouth with an expression of regret.
“It’s fun to play like this, Patrecia.”

The warm sunlight penetrates the window. It’s mid-February, so it’s the end of winter, but the weather is enough to feel a little warmth.
The sunlight passing through the window was gradually increasing its angle and approaching Ewald’s face.
Ewald, who was lying on the bed and fell into a last-ditch sleep, opened his sharp eyes to the sunlight piercing his eyes.
Ewald, who may have been able to adapt to it now, but with traces of wildness everywhere, only after checking the structure of the bed and room, relaxed his deadly eyes.
It’s a bloody meteorology.
As he stretched his languid body, Balt looked at his right arm with a heavy feeling. His right arm, which doesn’t move well, maybe he slept wrong,
“Whoa, whoa, master.”
Usbel was lying naked.
hehehe,hehehe.”
Usbel, who used Ewald’s arm as a pillow and rubbed her cheeks with a tired expression like a cat, clung to Ewald’s arms while talking in her sleep.
Anger rose up on Ewald’s face.
“… Oh, should I just throw it away?”
“Hee hee?”
Smart smart
“Good morning, chief.”
“Oh, now, now, wait!”
In other words, a clear and elegant voice was heard from outside the door, as if jade marbles were rolling on a jade tray, and the door opened abruptly.
“Commander Schilling is here for a meeting…”
Adele, with drooping eyes, froze as she held on to the doorknob.
Adele slowly blinked her eyes at the scene where her man and woman were hugging each other from the morning.
Adele, who was still looking at Usbel, who was still smacking her lips and making a happy snort, and Ewald, who had a properly flustered face, opened her mouth with her characteristic flat voice.
“If you want to engage in procreation, lock the door…”
“No!”
“No, you have to say that with such a face…”
“No!”
“I know Usbel is her demon, but is it possible to crossbreed?”
“No, because that’s not it!”
Ewald pulled out the blanket and raised his upper body as if to look at it. However, Ebalt’s upper body, with nothing on his upper body, began to show off his muscles under the bright morning sun.
“Oh my~”
It is a calm voice without any high or low.
Adele blushed slightly without taking her eyes off Ewald’s naked torso.
It is a scene that can not help but be related to sssss.
Ewald rolled up the blanket, threw Usbel’s naked body over her body, and jumped to her feet. The bottom was clearly meant to show that she was wearing it, but Adele didn’t seem to take her eyes off her.
“Oh my~ Oh my~”
Adele’s face reddened even more. But the expression is still blank. With a face like that, her face was blushing, so it was unbalanced.
“Hey, Captain, the Commander-in-Chief…”
But a third person appeared behind Adele’s back.
“Mu, mu, mu, mu, what are you doing!”
It self-destructed with a pop in her head.

“Why are you so noisy in the morning?”
“… Don’t ask.”
Ewald, who had sunk himself into the sofa, frowned.
“What are you up to this morning?”
“What you asked for.”
Marcus placed two stacks of thick papers on the table and scratched his gray hair.
“Will that be enough?”
Ewald quickly picked up the papers.
“You’ll know when you see it.”
“By the way, what the hell did you ask for it to be used for?”
“For a moment. Read this.”
From noble mtl dot com
“How much trouble did you go through to get it…”
“Oh, little! I’ll talk to you later. Good job, human!”
Ewald spun around, fixed himself in an empty spot, and began to read the papers at breakneck speed.
“… With a temper.”
“It’s not even a day or two, so get used to it.”
“Does it have a temper to adapt to?”
“I know. You’re having a lot of trouble because of your clever friend, Marcus.”
Chwack chump chump chump chump.
After reading all those documents at once, Balt picked up his second one.
“Is this all?”
“… I’ve been collecting all week. And to ask for such data within that time in the first place…”
“It’s a bit lacking.”
“Wouldn’t that be enough to begin with? 10 years worth of data.”
Marcus frowned slightly and opened his mouth.
“Why is an alternative dungeon investigation necessary? Shouldn’t we investigate the place where the report of suspicion of the demon king came in?”
“Is there a demon king in Biltzburg?”
Marcus paused.
“… There was none.”
“I heard you only sensed mana elsewhere?”
“… It did.”
“Hey, and everyone, what is that? A wheat farm, a Nurven guard post? If it’s a guard post, can’t you make it a guard? Did you hide any artifacts in the guard post? But why is the Demon King here?”
“It’s an unused guard post.”
“Then there wouldn’t be any artifacts. Dismissed.”
“… Hey, Ewald.”
“Oh, stay. Because it’s the funniest thing.”
“… You mean the Chiraq Mountains?”
A sneer crept across Ewald’s lips.
“Yes, the Chirak Mountains. If I tell you that it’s just the Chirak Mountains, do you search all the mountains? Do you know how many hundred kilometers the Chirac Mountains are? Do you have something to do after looking back? Is there any chance of getting into trouble while looking for the demon king in that wide area, this winter?”
“… I can fully understand the Biltzburg case, but since the report came in, shouldn’t we investigate?”
“I will. I will.”
“What are you going to do?”
“I have to go to the fun place first.”
Then grinning. Marcus forcibly resisted the outburst of swearing through his voice.
“Ewald, this is not the time to play around!”
“There are no strong guys here either. Next.”
Either way, Ebalt took up his quill pen and began writing on the papers Marcus had handed him.
“I went there.”
“… Hey.”
Ewald’s hand, which had been marking the papers with a couple of strokes, stopped. Then, quickly, Ewald’s head flicked up. His face was full of mischief.
As soon as Marcus saw it, he began growling resolutely.
“Stop. No. Don’t go. Don’t do it unconditionally.”
“What are you going to do? If this is the case, Kasper will tell you to do it.”
“I will stop you.”
“No. You’ll be fine if you listen to this too.”
“… I will do what I can to hear.”
“I thought so.”
Single single smile as he moved closer to Marcus, Balt picked up a document and pointed with his finger.
“Here, here.”
Where Ewald’s finger is pointing. Marcus looked at the papers with his eyes narrowed, thanks to the presbyopia that had come before.
“… Lake Pontstanz?”
Ewald’s head nodded.
“Here, here.”
“… I researched there a while ago. Nothing special.”
“No. Suspicious. I have something.”
“Your face is more suspicious.”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see this serious face?”
“… Are you smiling brightly?”
“I’m coming.”
Be stupid Marcus sighed as he seriously contemplated what to do with this poor fellow.
Lake Vonstanz was obviously nothing special. There have been reports of suspected demon lords, but there is nothing particularly strange about it, and there is nothing particularly dangerous about it.
Just be careful playing in the water. Besides, there is no way to play in the water this winter, so it is a peaceful place unless you accidentally fall into the water.
“Aren’t you going on a picnic?”
“I like catching a troll family on a picnic.”
Well, Ewald and picnics definitely don’t go well together. In the end, Marcus nodded his head and threw it away.
“Go and see His Majesty.”

“Hey, Kasper, Kasper.”
“… Ewald?”
Ewald looked a bit bored now that there were no more stern or bastard guards running at him holding spears, but Ewald walked up to Kasper with a smile on his face.
“Stop there.”
As soon as Kasper saw Balt approaching with an uncharacteristically lively face, goosebumps ran through his body.
“Stop.”
“… Why are you so cold?”
“That expression!”
Ewald tapped his own face and tilted his head.
“Why is my expression?”
“… Do you remember what you did after making that face?”
“What? All of a sudden, you’ve become rough, haven’t you?”
Kasper looked quite uneasy. Memories from the past, memories, or nightmares passed through Kasper’s brain.
“Harpoon. Yes, you sent Prince Harpoon to another dimension with that face.”
“Harpoon?”
Ewald pondered and smiled wickedly.
“Ah, the prince who incinerated the concept? Hey, when did you talk about that, it’s new…”
“Oh, yes, that. That’s the laugh Do not come.”
A dark past began to play in Kasper’s brain like a panorama.
The incident in which the prince of the Kingdom of Hanor, who ordered the palace guards to kill Ebalt, was exiled to another dimension for exactly nine hours.
Thanks to that, Kasper, who recalled the incident that brought him to the brink of war, trembled as much as he could.
Ewald, the main culprit of the crazy incident, was smiling at the time. Kasper, who was crown prince at the time, recalled like a nightmare the past of being beaten up to the brink of death by his previous emperor.
“… When do you wake up and go to work? Are you having a seizure?”
“Work?”
Is this the face you’re going to buy? Kasper observed Ewald with a worried expression like Marcus.
“Are you asking me to believe that?”
“Believe, believe. Are you okay. Do you know Lake Pontstanz? The place where the suspicion of the demon king was reported. I’ll go over there.”
Something is strange. Kasper tilted his head in strange anxiety.
“I received a report last time that the investigation was over, so what further investigation are you talking about?”
“No no. There’s something Suspicious there.”
“… Are you more suspicious?”
“Ah! I’ll just go! It’s not far! Isn’t it polite to say thank you and push your back when a friend comes to you to go to work? Shall we try the truth?”
Casper jumped up from his seat.
“It’s already serious enough,”
“Oh, little! They say they’re going because it’s not possible without the Demon Lord.”
“Ponstantzra…”
For a moment. As if remembering something, Kasper was lost in thought for a moment.
Pontstanz Lake. There is no singularity except that it is secluded, and the risk is very low because it is far from the battlefield.
Lake Vonstanz is a peaceful place where people sometimes go for recreation, but Kasper felt more dangerous than the middle of the battlefield when that guy named Ewald was going.
“Ponstanz…”
For a moment, Kasper’s eyes widened.
“For a moment! You can’t… !”
