It’s morning, but I can’t see it in the morning.

The light emitted from the Snow King Rock pillar is only natural, and although it has properties similar to the sunlight that illuminates the outside world, it still feels fake.

—and it just shifts artificially.

The underground iron kingdom is different from the outside world, and the night and morning brightness are switched by the dwarf’s magic tools.

It was nothing but a crystal of wisdom, but it didn’t hide its inorganicity.

Such an area of cultivated land in an iron country.

Of course, if you look up into the sky, the artificial pale will spread out, and there will be no clouds. There was just a sky built.

The cultivated soil itself is still planted with enough crops to grow, and the place is a little over an hour from the castle.

Ein was here watching Sylvia touch the soil.

(…… amazing)

I’ll say it to the weather in my head.

Of course, Ein has no idea what the soil is like.

At first glance, the effect of toxin decomposition EX can be roughly understood, so as expected last night, we know that there is a harmful Nanica in the cultivated soil…

“Ein-kun.”

She called Ein, who continued to marvel at Sylvia’s wisdom.

There is only Marco by his side, and Leonard and all the others are at the castle. We need to talk to the Dwarves over there so that we can quickly check on the status of the Iron Mallet’s investigation.

I think it hurts, but I’m holding my strength down a little bit.

“… yes, I know.”

Improving the condition of cultivated land, like Ain, has no makeover.

For just a moment… there’s no doubt that people will be able to lead the way while they blink.

But as Sylvia said, we need to keep that power at bay.

Because it would be a good enemy.

“Hmm… it’s weird…”

Sylvia puts her fingertips on her glossy lips as she puts her arms together.

Ein speaks to Marco in the sight of his brilliant appearance.

When you’ve settled down, maybe I should fix it for you.

“Perhaps, all of you in the king’s city will disagree with it.”

The treatment of the Queen may well be decided, but whatever it is, it is no less important to deal with the people of the Iron Kingdom.

But if you want to build a friendly relationship…

(My power is important.)

And Ain thought, Because of his kindness of heart, if it be for a hungry dwarf in the iron kingdom.

But no matter how they move, they will feel new emotions for Ein. If you have improved the land of your birth, you will be grateful for it.

Ah, I wonder if this is it.

Huh? Is something wrong?

“Hey, I told you last night I’d find something interesting, didn’t I? I knew it… I found what I was expecting.”

Can you come over here? Ain, called by Sylvia, approaches her.

She took the withered crop that was growing on the cultivated soil and instantly gazed at its purple magic power in her palm, watching it react in some way.

Marco, walking with Ain, looked at it with a frown.

It’s an old curse.

If he says so,

Curse?

“I see. Sylvia will tell you more.”

As soon as Ain stood next to Sylvia with a frank nod, she suppressed the glowing magic power at hand.

And he said unto him, Touch the crop that was in his hand, Ein-kun, and he stretched out his hand: and Ein touched the withered crop immediately.

Eventually, Ein repeatedly blinks at the fact that the toxin-degrading EX worked on its own.

“As Marco said, there’s an old curse.” From what I heard yesterday, it looks like it’s been going on for a dozen years. “

So, why did my power trigger?

“Of course I can activate it.” This cursed existence uses the magic power in the air as a medium to poison the body. “

Ein nodded quietly and listened.

“In the case of crops, it also affects the surrounding land… this poison is troublesome, and it is not easy to detect that it is poison, but it spreads over a long period of time, so it is often too late when I notice it.”

“Hey, you really know a lot of things, don’t you?”

“Fufu, thank you, but this time it was a curse for people I’ve been involved with.”

“I got involved… is that something other than the dwarves?”

“Yes, I’ve never had anything to do with the Iron Nation, but I’ve been to many other races before, so that’s when I got a little bit.”

Sylvia walks out after saying that.

Ain and Marco were told to leave the cultivated land, and a few minutes after they started moving toward the castle—.

She says suddenly.

Some of the dwarves in this country are connected to the Dark Elves.

That said, Ein opened his eyes in surprise.

Marco sighed, after all.

◇◇◇◇

“So is the current famine a deliberate situation?”

Returning to the Iron Nation Castle, Ain shared what she had spoken to Leonard along the way.

While listening to Ein with a strange face, Leonard frowned as he realized that this situation was a bit introverted.

“As Lord Sylvia said, there is definitely a curse of the Dark Elves.” Given that there are no Dark Elves living in this country, I think there are Dwarves who have been associated with Dark Elves for more than a decade. “

The two were talking in a room set aside in the castle.

In addition, there is a special Sylvia magic tool in this room, so you can’t steal the conversation between the two of you.

Although Sylvia was absent because she was headed for the Iron King’s Hammer, Marco stood outside this martial bone room, and there was no room for anyone to enter.

“Yeah… I think you’re right. However, I don’t understand the purpose.”

“Well, it only looks like they’re strangling themselves, and I’m not sure what they wanted to do to create this situation.”

“It’s just that, definitely, that’s what somebody’s going to get. That being said, we are now being grabbed by Ishtarika.”

“That’s right… even if it was a plan to drive out my family, I feel uncomfortable…”

I think it would be better to think separately of the involvement of the former counselor of the Golden Route.

“–nh. Seems so.”

By the way, Ein has a number of things that I think you just said.

Someone from the Dwarfs who lived in this country made connections with the Dark Elves and with their help brought a curse to the cultivated lands of the motherland…

The dwarf should benefit from this.

Either it is physically or mentally attainable.

(Mother says it must be the Dark Elves that caused this country to perish…)

Of course, Ein was surprised that the Dark Elves were still alive. However, even though they may be descendants, I smile when I think that something is hiding in the modern era.

“There was a seizure of the throne on my mind.”

“Huh? You mean to betray the Queen?”

“Yes, I heard that this country has been home to royalty since the founding of the nation.” However, if there is a dwarf who doesn’t like it, it doesn’t seem very uncomfortable. “

“Ahh… blame the royalty for the state of the cultivated land.”

“In fact, the iron kingdom is not a strange situation when the queen is executed.”

The involvement of the former counselor became even more unknown, but Leonard’s prediction was correct.

The current queen is indeed in a very precarious situation. If there is a Dwarf presumably connected to the Dark Elves, it would be an ideal situation.

… this shouldn’t have seemed so pathetic to the Queen.

But you didn’t think we’d destroy our country.

“I was wondering that too. So, I’m sure there was something… I wonder if there was a trump card?”

Ein heard it, and looked up at the ceiling and muttered, “Trump card, right?”

And that’s where I went.

When Ein replied that the door had been knocked on, Mutton, with a slightly tired expression, stepped into the room.

Your Highness, that Riordan kind of guy is no good to me.

It was Mutton who had been on his way to the Iron King’s Hammer since the morning.

What’s the matter, suddenly?

“Well, listen… I’m coming to this country in disguise, right?” Makeup or anything. “

The reason is simple: I don’t want you to notice Mutton’s face yet.

But for Ishtarika, I want to rely on the wisdom of Mutton, and I want to rely on the iron kingdom warrior who is surprised to see Mutton.

But if you don’t need it, you don’t have to reveal it.

That’s why Mutton is applying special makeup to change his face a bit…..

“You’re weak on dwarf habits!” I was told that. Once in a while, I tried to get my hands out of it… but it was already desperately enduring. Don’t bother your Highness! “

I-I see… thank you for your concern.

Nevertheless, his aperitif has not fallen, and he seems unhappy.

(I guess they think you’re the dwarf family that went out there)

If you’re a former relative who knows what you’re talking about, you’ll know what the Iron Kingdom Dwarves want to say. That said, it’s not that Ein knows how he feels. Given the character of a man named Riordo, it’s not surprising that the dwarfs around him think so.

Master Shearton, have you had any other problems?

Leonard asked here.

“Ah? I don’t think so.” It’s not like I’m being obstructed. Just Riordan, what’s wrong with the queen? How’s the queen? You’ve heard it so many times, it’s a little tricky. “

“… yeah? Does that make Riordo seem loyal to the Queen?”

Ein asked, twisting his neck.

At the same time, Leonard realized Ein’s questionable intentions and shut his mouth.

“Oh dear, I’ve seen a lot of guests since I was in Baltic, but that man doesn’t look like a lying man.”

So you think loyalty to the Queen is real?

“That’s right.” Well, I’m talking about showing us that compassion, too. “

Oh dear, Ein puts her arms around a shrugged shearling.

(–What do you think?)

Ein’s sincerity in twisting his neck was that Riordo was planning to usurp the throne. It was only a surprise because it was an early check-up, but given the man’s behavior, it’s worth the doubt. In particular, it was only natural to recall the behavior of the other party’s important people called Ishtarika.

― ― ― Although I believe Mutton’s intuition, to be honest, I have always believed Mutton’s intuition as Ain, but I feel that it is worthy of full trust.

Of course, that doesn’t mean I’m going to be alarmed, but I’m not going to stop thinking about anything else.

But the current story was far enough to make Ein think.

Well, then, why don’t we talk about it?

Shannon’s voice echoed in his heart.

In any case, I can see that I can use my own power, but even as Ein, I felt it was not a bad idea to talk to Riordan.

Ein is now in the general’s shoes.

I would like to use this to see how much Riordo has pledged allegiance to the Queen.

If so, I wanted to move quickly.

Mr. Mutton, I’ll try to talk to you after all.

Oh, you’re my Highness!

Your Highness!? Are you talking to Riordan yourself!?

In contrast to the delighted Mutton, Leonard slammed his desk in a panic.

I guess I should check with Warren and the others.

“That’s natural! However, I would like to say why is it that your Highness herself–no, if you think about it carefully, it was a stupid question… Your Highness has always been moved by herself……”

Leonard, who had given up, let out a sigh, and Mutton patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.

Ein scavenges his pocket and retrieves the message bird.

The matching Message Bird was placed in the capital of Ishtarika, also in the office of Warren in the castle.

You’ll get a reply soon.

The voice of Ein, who took immediate action as soon as he thought of it, will be delivered to Warren immediately afterwards.

The reply also came under Ein within a few minutes.
