‘Hmm? What’s that? Weird.’

Akira, one of Hinotori’s minds noticed this. In her eyes, most of the present items were blurred out, so she ignored it.

Day 55

“Woohoo!”

“Feast day! Let’s go!”

“Ready all your baskets! The palace feeds us today!”

While patrolling the streets of the city, this was all I could hear. I had been tasked with monitoring the streets with my shadows, in case they would be rendered useless in the face of the invaders.

Feast day was supposed to be a day where the royals fed the people. It was like a celebration for the king to show how grateful he was to the goddess and how generous he was. So, the people gathered around for food from gods-know-where. Well, I did know where the food was coming from, but still. For all of them to crowd around in a city when they would still get it in their respective cities was beyond stupid.

I could get wanting to be at the actual place where the King was, but compromising your comfortability and safety all for such a reason? I couldn’t understand them.

They had all filled up the buildings, the corners of the streets and any available space except for the road. That was probably due to the line-up of guards in armour with spear and shields. Their mere presence alone scared people from trying to get close to the streets. I found it kind of interesting.

While swimming about, trying my best to deal with the overly loud crowd (having better hearing than most people was a pain), I could feel someone tug on the ends of my silky-cloth that the princess had provided for me.

It was a child with a runny nose, staring at me weirdly.

“Pretty lady.”

He muttered and I didn’t know whether to feel flattered or ignore him. I pat him on the head with a smile.

‘Thanks, kid.’

When I sent the message to his mind, his eyes widened with excitement.

“I just heard you in my head!”

He yelled loudly, but his voice was mostly drowned out by the noise. His shock at my actions made me feel like I did something bad. So, I left him and went off to continue making my rounds.

Me: Yo, how are things on your side?

Yokino: It’s all right here. Kind of boring.

Oh, that’s right. Yokino, Sunalla and Osveta were in charge of protecting the princess. Of course, Yokino was doing that from the shadows, but that left Kawaii and myself on the more arduous duty of making sure the entire city was safe.

I was being abused in this case. Tch, exactly why I didn’t want the princess to know that I wanted to find Minerva. She could use this against me like she was doing right now. The worst part was that even after today, I wouldn’t get my information cause the Grand Court Mage would have to rest a bit before searching.

Me: I want this day to be over real quick.

Yokino: Hmm, yeah, but don’t you want to partake in the feast?

Me: Oh… I just realised I hadn’t eaten anything since the past three days. Guess thinking about Minerva was too distracting.

Yokino: … You even lose sleep over her.

Me: I don’t sleep though

Yokino: Sure, sure.

Me: What’s that supposed to mean?

She didn’t respond to my message.

Me: Yo! Don’t blue tick me!

She definitely wasn’t responding intentionally and she wasn’t going to do so anytime soon. I decided to give up.

‘Mawstewr. Can Kawaii eat from the feast too?’

On my back, Kawaii asked.

‘I don’t see why not. But do you even get hungry?’

“Guuu! Kawaii is always hungry!”

‘Is that so? That sounds like hell.’

“I wonder what kind of food they have.”

‘Talk with [Telepathy]. Also, I guess I also want to know what delicacies are unique to Atlantis.’

‘Hmm, maybe there’ll be some dead humans! Those taste fantastic.’

‘Oi, oi, that’s beyond terrifying. When did you-’

Before I could ask any questions, there were loud trumpet sounds that forced everyone to go silent. We all looked up, confused by the sudden blowing. When I looked around, I saw smiles on the faces of the people. Those smiles quickly turned into wild grins and crazy eyes.

“He’s back!”

“The second greatest king in history!”

‘Is that something to be saying so casually? Shouting it no-less.’

“Yahoo! Make more noise!”

“The Wise King of Progress has made his return!”

‘Wise king of progress? That’s such a cool edge lord title… I want one. Like, Wise king of war or Wise King of Monsters… ugh, those sound lame! Uwaa! I need something badass. Thoughts?’

‘None.’

‘Akkun? Our saviour! Thoughts!’

‘N-None.’

‘Well, whatever. It’s not important now.’

Above, I could feel the mana distorting. I noticed that the space was being warped, indicating that someone was coming through a portal.

From the portal emerged a massive boat. Built out of what I could only presume was sea shells. It was as big as a football field, meaning it was too big to even pass through the streets, being pulled by two large Bull whales. From this large ship, a singular chariot came running towards the street, pulled by whale dogs.

This chariot resembled what Elriek used to go into town, but much more majestic and larger. Several silver bars had been fixed into the shell, with sheer curtains made of pearl beads hanging down from the top of the clam shell. This managed to hide most of the king’s features, leaving a mere silhouette for us to see him waving.

Unfortunately for me, I felt a heavy pressure as he passed by. Scariest part was that it wasn’t only me. All the cheering had been silenced and everyone was bowing down. Everyone except for me, of course.

“Welcome, his majesty, the Wise King of Progress, Atlantis’ very own Unmatched Genius, the highly exalted and venerable King Zigruk Elirek Sox Anon Den Yorul II!”

A voice announced as the carriage descended to the streets. The carriage passed by, but sadly I couldn’t really see the King’s features. Possibly a protection mechanism for when he’s parading on the streets. However, I did see his eyes.

They were staring at me intensely and I did the same. For some reason, I felt no need to bow down like the others. Maybe that was stupid on my part, but I was tired of bowing down to others.

“Princess!”

I received a notification from one of my shadows, so I teleported to his location immediately. What I found were two people that had been restrained. In the hands of one of the shadows was a weird orb that carried a dangerous looking amount of unstable mana.

‘A mana bomb? So, you guys are part of the invaders?’

“N-no!”

“Shut up.”

‘No?’

One of them forced the other to shut up. I found that to be very curious behaviour.

‘Are you the invaders?’

I asked him, but he didn’t respond. Unfortunately for both of these idiots, I could read minds.

‘It’s bad that we could get killed if we don’t say anything, but at least our families won’t die at the hands of that monster.’

‘This idiot better not say anything. My family is on the line here.’

‘Seriously?’

‘They are being forced to do this?’

‘T-then, the invaders are already here?’

‘Looks like intel wasn’t as accurate as we were led to believe.’

Me: Yokino. Tell Osveta that the invaders are already in. They must have been here before I planted my shadows. Looks like they are forcing civilians to plant the bombs all around.

I looked at the duo before me. One was shaking and the other was growling at me.

‘You… I promise your families won’t be hurt.’

I told them and the looks in their eyes changed. One of them started crying, but the other guy was still sceptical of me. I’d be sceptical as well if someone I hadn’t even talked about my predicament with was telling me not to worry about it.

‘I read your minds, geniuses.’

The guy made a sort of “geh” sound and just slumped back.

Yokino: Osveta says that you should get all your shadows to scour around the city for more of the civilians who will be planting the bombs. There’s no point in wasting them at the entrance.

‘Huh? No point in wasting them at the entrance… nothing good will come of me withdrawing my forces from the entrance.’

‘No. They are already in. The shadows are wasted standing guard there.’

‘I-I have a bad f-feeling about that.’

‘Don’t worry, Akkun. It’ll be alright, right Tori?’

Akira’s overconfidence was something. I ordered all the shadows to go searching the city for more civilians with bombs. Of course, my generals were left at the original positions since those were the most important places.

Even in such a situation, the most terrifying thing to me was the image that I saw in the minds of the two. Originally, I had suspected a certain someone of having a hand in this in some way, but the image of the person who threatened them into doing this was definitely too different. And this threat came about two days ago.

So, long enough that there were probably no invaders present by that time, but not enough time for that certain someone to have coerced civilians into doing this. There was a mole in Yorul that the princess was not aware of. Or maybe she was?
