45 – Mole Catch – (2)

shoot it

The raindrops gradually got thicker and then began to fall violently. Conversely, it felt like the son-in-law became calm because of the sound of rain. The officials were also embarrassed and hurriedly took umbrellas from their servants and used them.

I also donned the green raincoat that the attendant had hurriedly brought to me. The smell from the lining reminded me of the ponchos I wore over and over again when I was a soldier.

“…It’s raining.”

Lynchia mumbled.

I looked up at the dark sky with my raincoat on.

It was said that wizards’ weather forecasts were not often wrong.

If that were true, it would be unusual.

“It’s strange.”

More than anything, I was embarrassed because I clearly remember the CG of Raising the Empress.

The second act was held in sunny weather.

then.

What the hell does this rain that is falling now mean?

No matter how much I thought about it, the answer didn’t come out.

“Your Majesty, you must prepare.”

Coreld waddled over with an umbrella and said. Lucy also hurriedly brought a coat and wrapped it around Lynchia.

She nodded with a tense expression.

“OK.”

Even in the heavy rain, the schedule is enforced.

I couldn’t help it. It was a ritual that had already been prepared over several weeks, so it could not be postponed now.

Lynchia climbed back into the carriage, and I walked beside her.

Through the small window, Lyncia waves at me. I responded by bowing my head.

It will be fine. For now, while the director is in progress, the incident won’t happen. because i made it that way

Before long, the wizards fired small beams of light to give a signal.

Then, the funeral ceremony proceeds slowly.

A lavishly decorated emperor’s crown. The soldiers pulled the gun carriage loaded with the coffin with a tense look on their faces.

After that, the wagon carrying Lyncia follows. It was outside, so I couldn’t tell what kind of expression she was making when she sat inside. However, it will never be a good look.

The crowd watched and sighed from a distance as the gun carriage passed by. Most of them must have never seen the emperor’s face in their entire lives, but their faces were distorted like parents who had lost their children. I was very curious about that.

As expected, this world seemed to be useless from the point of view of modern people.

Soon we arrived at the temple within the mausoleum.

Traditionally, the figures of the imperial family are enshrined here after death.

Upon entering the interior, the first thing I saw was a simple stage with a choir lined up in the background. It was where Lyncia would stand.

There were guest seats on both sides, and the highest ranking nobles, including the Senate, were seated.

They bowed their heads as the coffin passed, and bowed even more deeply when they saw Lincia behind it.

The grand dukes who were seated in the high seats also observed this and silently meditated.

Checking that side, I sighed.

The Winter Ball and the Golden Ball, are these two grand dukes also absent? It was like a game unfolding. I was a little relieved about this.

“Today here…”

Before the full-scale ceremony, the archbishop began to speak briefly, and verses from the Bible burst into song from the choir in the back.

Somehow, it was because I had been memorizing it to some extent thanks to the profanity I wrote during probation.

While the song was playing, no one moved and looked at their toes. I also bowed my head following the ritual I had learned from cramming.

Now, it was Lyncia’s turn to move forward.

She slowly came forward and stepped onto the podium.

“Big. Fluffy.”

When you clear your throat, your attention is drawn. And everyone couldn’t help but admire her look.

because it was so beautiful A silver-haired empress in a black mourning dress. The green eyes shining quietly between black and white dazzled everyone.

she spoke slowly

“God has spoken.”

As she started her speech, Lyncia’s face was more serious than anyone else in the room.

Pronounce each character clearly and without hesitation, as if the result of the practice has been achieved. Where necessary, accents or vibrations were used to impress everyone.

I’ve seen it a few times, but I was involuntarily amazed. This must be the title of an emperor connected by blood.

“Hmm.”

After looking there, I turned around and went out of the temple.

If it was Lyncia, she would do well even without me.

If so, it is now time to act as a protector of the border. The Guardian Knights, including Yuriad, must have already gone down to the underground water canal. As soon as I picked up their signal, I had to go to aid.

When we went outside, in the heavy rain, the knights and soldiers of the Royal Guard wearing raincoats were maintaining a tight guard posture.

Among them, he went behind the back of the smallest one and put his hand on his shoulder.

“Hee, hi!”

He let out a shrieking sound and quickly turned around.

The eyes of the soldier, Cora, gradually narrowed when he recognized that it was me.

“What, what is it…”

“No, just work hard.”

Cora still looked at me with an unreliable expression.

“Aren’t you supposed to be inside?”

“It’s hard to get used to that kind of atmosphere.”

“You don’t look like a protector.”

“I didn’t do it because I wanted to, so what?”

What can I say about the subdued atmosphere, I hate it because I myself became solemn.

More than anything, I felt like I was getting tired of being stared at by grand dukes or other bigwigs.

How do they survive the third act, in which they play the leading role?

It seemed that my eyes were already dark.

“There was no signal, right?”

“Not yet.”

Cora nodded.

Well, it was a little while later that the killers came in.

“Yes. Cheer up.”

I pat Cora on the shoulder a few more times. Then she wiped her shoulder with a disapproving expression.

I’m being hated quite a bit, me.

I looked at the landscape of the mausoleum in the rain with a bitter smile.

That was the moment.

Rumble.

A small vibration rang out.

“yes?”

I asked, looking at Cora hastily.

“Didn’t you feel it?”

“What, what?”

A subtle vibration that a normal person would not have felt. But my heightened senses could feel the regular vibrations rising through the leggings.

Vibration as if hundreds of people stamping their feet at the same time.

Kurleung.

rang once more.

It was a louder sound.

This time, he looked at me with an unusual expression, as if he had felt Cora.

At first I thought it was the sound of the crowd moving. But that was after many people had already left. Of course it will rain.

So, what is this vibrating sound?

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Doubts were quickly dispelled.

“there!”

Cora pointed to a point and let out a sound bordering on surprise.

Let’s follow that gaze… … .

“crazy…….”

A black dot seemed to grow larger, but soon began to fill the field of view.

I could tell what it was without even looking closely.

It was a wave.

It is also a tidal wave of crowds.

“Me-what is that!”

“Stop! This place is off-limits!”

someone shouted.

However, they also stopped talking after intuition that the situation was going strangely.

Everyone who came running was in a strange state. All were running, all dressed in torn or tattered rags, dripping with blood and flesh. Others came running, rattling their bones.

An obvious alien presence.

“……Uh, the undead! The undead army!”

One article who grasped the situation suddenly shouted, and everyone understood the situation.

The choir’s singing stopped. And it seems that the people inside through the window also grasped the situation. The same goes for the crowds that were far away.

In no time, the mausoleum became a mayhem.

The sound of pouring rain, the screams of the crowd, and the oncoming death march.

In the meantime, I drew my sword.

Someone shouted loudly, but it was so chaotic that I couldn’t hear it.

“What the heck…”

There was no development like this in the game.

“Hey. Calm down.”

“Ah, ah.”

Cora caught someone’s foot and nearly tripped her up.

In a panic, Cora slammed her teeth as she watched the approaching wave of death.

oh i don’t know I punched Cora rather hard on the cheek.

When I heard the sound of a pair, I looked at me with eyes full of tears.

Cora murmured with a look of pity on the world.

“It’s strange… why does this always happen to me…”

“That’s right.”

No luck, no luck, this guy.

Cora, who seemed to have regained her senses, shook herself off and stood up, clutching at the spearhead.

The knights and wizards also hurriedly lined up and prepared to face the approaching army. I don’t know much about martial arts, but there are dozens of knights and two battle mages. With this, you should be able to block it without difficulty.

I hurriedly turned my steps toward Lincia.

The rain still falls hard.

As Cora said, it was strange.

“Did you just hear?”

Lautrec, who had been walking alongside Uriard’s words, nodded.

Millia also looked up and listened for a moment before hardening her expression.

“Looks like something happened upstairs.”

“Are you going up?”

At Lautrec’s words, Uriad pondered for a while.

As Fried said, they had descended underground.

The map Fried brought was accurate. Following the path on the map, there was a platform that connects to several passageways. Although he had lived in the capital for decades, Uriad had never dreamed that a road like this existed.

Fried’s argument was valid. If the church used this place to enter the mausoleum, they should have allowed entry.

But things started to take a strange turn.

It suddenly started raining and the canal started to submerge. Rainwater came up through the canal and was up to the knees, so there was not enough space to even step on.

In such a situation, a huge vibration was heard from above. It was enough to be detected even with Yuriard’s senile ears, which meant that a fairly large battle was taking place.

He stroked his beard-marked chin.

If you think of common sense, it is right to go to the ground right away and apply.

But emptying this place wasn’t right either.

For now, since I was ordered by my superior, it was my duty to keep my seat.

“…I don’t know either.”

The time when Uriad can’t make a decision.

“I will stay.”

“yes?”

Millia blurted out.

“Sir Euriad and Sir Lautrec watch over the ground. I will remain here alone to guard.”

“……Milia.”

Uriad looked at him with a slightly surprised expression.

Milia Liantour. The most clumsy Guardian Knight in the Royal Guard. Wasn’t she the one who was obscured by the halo of the Duke of Liantur and couldn’t properly express my opinion?

To think that such Milia would take the lead and remain.

“Why?”

“……that’s.”

Milia averted her gaze for a moment, blurring her words.

But when she raised her head again, she had a resolute expression on her face.

“I’ve decided to believe Sir Fried’s words. The Church will conduct an assault through this place.”

“… um.”

Uriad drooled and continued.

“Do you trust Fried?”

“……Now, yes.”

“Didn’t you disbelieve not too long ago?”

“I’ve changed my mind.”

Seeing Milia’s eyes, Uriad sighed.

What the hell happened while I was out on dispatch for a while? Judgment couldn’t keep up with the flow.

Uriad recalled the time when Fried suddenly came in to change the security plan.

At first, I thought he was doing something unusual that didn’t turn out like usual.

But his tone was serious and logical.

As Yuriad, who had seen Fried since he was a child, he couldn’t help but think of the intelligent man of the past.

So, is it, after all, a preference for wanting to believe it?

Uriad let out a bitter laugh.

“Lautrec, stay with you. I’ll go up alone.”

“But.”

“Are you worried about me?”

“……no.”

Eventually, Lautrec nodded without saying anything.

Milia turned her round eyes to Uriard.

He shrugged.

“Wouldn’t the two of you be enough?”

“Yes that’s right.”

“Believe me. Just like that bastard, Fried.”

Saying that, Uriad took out his sword and raised it.

For some reason, the steps I took were unsteady.
