Shikkaku Kara Hajimeru Nariagari Madō Shidō

― ― River Coast, a member of the Imperial Southern Army, sighed tirelessly while doing the work assigned to him.

(Why would I do such a thing...)

A lot of gloomy stupidity comes out with a sigh.

Livel's unconsciousness about such unproductive behavior is due to the unbearable dissatisfaction with the status quo.

What Rivel is doing here is a very simple and monotonous task of matching the cargo with the inventory.Checking the number of shipments and how much they take out, and recording them, is a kind of work that anyone can do.

... by nature, Livel is not in a position to do this.

He graduated from the Imperial Military Academy with outstanding grades and joined the army as an officer on the elite course.

He was asked for the future and was planning to take up the staff position slowly.

But why don't you open the lid?

On the third day after my first assignment, I was waiting for my resignation to move to the south.

The situation has been dispatched to the gentle Rhinole kingdom, and even to interact with the kingdom's humans to do this kind of work.

(I graduated with great grades!Normally they will be sent to the field to work in the middle or to gain hands-on experience!

Normally, after graduating from the military academy, it should be customary to acquire further training in the rear, or to acquire the ranks of non-commissioned officers in the north, which is currently at war with the Empire.

Nevertheless, it was one of the hostiles, the Kingdom of Rhinol and its interior, that was the first to be directed.

It was tasked with supporting and monitoring the operation led by the incoming Count of the Kingdom, accompanied by an operation aimed at seizing silver.

In short, it helps to steal strategic supplies.

... At the Military Academy, I was mainly educated to lead as many as possible as future officers.

Nevertheless, what you have been given is a job that you have never remembered is useless.

In any case, it is not treatment for the elite.

(It's all because of those idiots.Everybody, everybody...)

What comes to mind are the same synchronists who graduated from the military academy as Livel.

Livel and I are totally incompetent, and if that's all, they've been hostile and harassing each and every one of them.No matter how much River produced, he never admitted it and made fun of his physical traits.

Of course, one of them must have pulled his leg this time.

He was jealous of himself for his excellent grades and told the great teachers and the military.

They're incompetent, but they're all good kids.It's easy to get parents to put pressure on you.

Otherwise, why should a talented person like yourself engage in such work in such a place?

Imperialism is meritocracy.That is why the incompetent and the incompetent are treated coldly, and the capable tend to be used heavily, even if their status is low.In such a country, incompetent and incompetent people are formed, and when the competent people encounter trouble, a plan that is not necessarily busy is moving behind them.

I was trapped.

Absolutely.

(Absolutely... absolutely...)

Just like before, River's mouth leaked his own words.

I exuded a single grudge, and my heart turned steadily. Then, I shed my gaze on the other side.

Documents, deeds, and instructions from the Count are all piled up on the wooden box.

Behind the warehouse is the seized silver.

I don't feel like I'm going to hide it just by putting a cloth on it.

Even though management seems to be poor, the reason why this is happening is because most people here are expensive because they will never find this base.

But what River doesn't understand is why he chose this place as a temporary storage site.

The location is Rustinel's territorial capital, ruled by the loud lord Louise Rustinel.

The river is convenient for transportation.

It is common for no one to feel uncomfortable at their feet, so it is unlikely that they will notice it unexpectedly.

However, as a soldier who left military school, it must be said that it is completely dangerous to have a base in such a place.

Sure, if you have to be here, that's not the case.

However, there are other potential bases.

There is no reason why we should never be here.

Nevertheless, it is quite difficult to understand what is being done here, from silver, which is the purpose, to the storage of instructions.

Silver can be said to be irresistible given the convenience of transportation.

The instructions are supposed to be incinerated after a certain period of time, but if we can hold them here, it's all gone.

It is customary to spread the danger.

And even if we tell them to do it, they're not listening.

You just don't like the hassle?

In the first place, do you have any idea what it means to expose it?

Instead of thinking at all about the worst, stick to the tasks that have been given to you for so long.

(Are you stupid? These guys....)

These people here are all these people.I immediately despise others and do not listen to their opinions.There are only dull-headed owners who just want instructions from their superiors.

And it is a merchant named Pirokoro who leads them.

Mi, everyone, thank you very much.

What I hear is a voice that lacks confidence.

I can see that the attitude of giving instructions to the surroundings is also rough.

The people here work as face-to-face merchants, so the people in charge probably chose the bright ones for the path.

Pirokoro was a race that was not suitable for such rough work.

So, um...

"Hey, nice to meet you, buddy!We were damaged in yesterday's raid!You know that, Teme!

"No! That's... I'm not surprised they can use magic, either."

"If you were dealing with engraving, you'd be able to use magic!You're such an idiot!

"Hyi! I'm sorry!

Pirokoro was angered by the man to whom the thief had been sent, and shrunk like a small animal.

This is because when we raided the village last night to steal silver, those who undertook to act as thieves suffered heavy damage.

Apparently, the magicians of the Kingdom stayed in the village, and unfortunately demonstrated their power to protect the village.

When I heard the story, most of those who attacked the south gate were defeated by the magic of the magicians and captured on the spot.

Those people are probably dying of the machine they were given in advance.

The man who is yelling now is the one who brings together the thieves, and he thinks the damage was caused by Pirokoro's failure to report.

If Pirokoro had a good penetration, he would have been able to contain the outburst of dissatisfaction.

Every time something goes wrong, this is how you get pushed up.

I can't help but say that I picked the wrong person because I'm not holding the people down.

... if you work in an environment like this, you can see that one day you will fail.

And yet, none of them move to improve.

Stupid.

Why are you so stupid with others?

"Hey, Empire Minions."

Lying on my back, I was summoned like that.

The servant of the hall was called a very unintentional person, but he swallowed his anger and turned his voice.

River was summoned by a skinny man sent in from Nadar's side.

Now he flips over the wooden box and looks at me.

Unnecessary pierced earrings everywhere for fashion.

A tattoo resembling a beast occupies half of his face.

I don't know if you can say that if you let a woman sit beside you, you can be the face of the underworld... but I'm not sure about that.

Everyone else is busy moving around, but nothing can be blamed because this man is the wizard.

"... what?

Asked vigilantly, the man smiled mockingly.

Is it about time you finished confirming?Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.You really can't use it. "

The man of the magician talks loudly.

Do you want to tell the people around you?

Livel also tried to argue, but the wizard's man was better at smoothing his mouth.

"The incompetent guy is really pathetic.Wherever you go, it stinks, and you won't be treated properly. "

"Ah, I am!

"What is it? That's why you flew me here, right?You call yourself the elite of the Empire?

"Gu...!

"Poor thing, you can't do anything or anything like that, can you?

A mocking smile is even more abominable.

Livell's work isn't as slow as a man says it stinks.

Rather, if you are doing an unfamiliar job, you can say that this is normal.

From the very beginning of Livel's assignment here, this man comes crashing through every single thing.

He's probably trying to boost his self-esteem by stigmatizing people like River.

Snoring the fallen elite will be a heartbreaker.

You can hear mockery around you as if you were caught by a man laughing.

And being distracted, the wizard man kicked the stacked papers.

"Ah...."

Documents dance through the sky and scatter around.

Though the corners were neatly wrapped up, it's time to reorganize again.

Besides, men are deliberate.

"Oh? I didn't see it.Ohh, meh, nh, hey, Livel. "

"............"

What did you not see?I knew it, and you kicked me.

"What? Are you mad at me?What do you think?If you're angry, say something.Yeah? "

A man provokes me.

But you mustn't be put on this.These provocative acts accelerate even further if you rebel against a man's thoughts.The vulgar harassment of this hand was tasted scattered in the military school.I can't help it if I'm dealing with it.

Was the man dissatisfied with Livel not riding on the provocation?You spit on the bad guy.

"Later, when you're done, let's do the same.

"Don't give me orders.It's empty in the first place. I wish you'd done it. "

"Ah? What?

In disagreement, the magician's man stood up and stared at him.

Are you trying to use magic to threaten me?

"Wow, I'm an Empire man!... treat the Empire humans in a rudimentary way, do your employers think so!?

"Che....."

Pointing out, the magician man shows a bitter face.

You really don't want to hurt the Empire people and make Count Nadar's testimony worse.

Give it back to a man like that.

"I hope you're flirting like that, but you know what I mean?When you return to Nadar territory, you will threaten the Prince of Rhinol's back, as instructed?

"Ah? You don't have to tell me that.Unlike me, I fight first.

"... as long as you know"

"Ha, is that all you have to say?Well, that's not even in return, is it?If you want to change the subject, use your head properly. "

…………

"I can't say back anymore... well, I'm in a good mood now.I'll forgive you. What a raid on Prince Wang and his party! "

Sigh, the man distorts his mouth.

It is a smile that hides the brutality of hunting lust.

"I can see it now.Prince Wang and his surroundings are my magic. "

Apparently, this man is immersed in joy with the idea of being active in the next operation.

But Livel has some doubts.

"You must be from the kingdom, right?Why do you agree to beat Prince Wang?

"Why? I don't know.To let the kingdom, which did not appreciate me as a capable magician, blow me away. "

"Can you blow a bubble?

"That's right. I've been touching magic since I was a kid, and there wasn't a single magician around who could beat me.And yet, just because they didn't leave the Magic Court, the officials treated me like one of those mogri wizards. "

So you're going to beat Prince Wang?

"Prince Wang is the child of the greatest wizard in the kingdom.That makes you hungry, doesn't it?

…………

Laughing like that is like a fairy tale demon.

It seems like deep resentment is rooted in that disturbing smile.

What is competent?

Did you not evaluate it?

Isn't that just a grudge?

I suppose it was because he was incompetent that he disgraced the Count's son.

"What are you complaining about?

"... nothing"

"Heh... incompetence can be shrunk in a corner like incompetence."

A man shouts at his back.

He is an emotionally unstable magician.

... why should I be with these people?

This guy is always focused only on keeping himself alive and satisfying his immediate desires, and doesn't try to see the big picture.

It would be the ultimate in foolishness.

And the stupidest one is the one whose silver is stolen by these people.

I didn't even know the Count stole the silver.

Believing that he is still suffering from banditry, he is searching the mountains for bandits.

Stupid. Absolutely nothing but the extreme of foolishness.

"I wonder if Rustinel's people would risk the Crown Prince even if they didn't realize that the silver had been stolen..."

As usual, I spilled my stupidity.

I keep my mouth shut because I said something terrible.

― ― If you put it in your mouth, it will cause tongue trouble.

This is a common word in the Empire.

If you say something that despises the other person, an event that goes against the content of the word will come back.

The world was founded by [ancient art], which manipulates events.

All the words currently used in the world are considered to have been differentiated from them.

Therefore, every word has a certain amount of power.

It affects the event very slightly.

For this reason, it is customary in the military to attach importance to such experiments, and not to underestimate the opponent and not to mention the fact that it is not a cause.

I think that would be superstition, but when you underestimate someone, it's often easy to fall into a pitfalls.

That's what I thought was a bad sign.

"Yes, Rustinel's leader is gathering outside!

"At a time like this!?

"Why!?

"And armed!

Ah...

And I wonder if I've caused you a tongue trouble, and something cold runs on your spine.

The man who was yelling earlier caught on to the pyrocology.

"Hey Temee, I don't suppose you suck!

"No, that can't be..."

Pirokoro says so, but since yesterday he has been in a state of failure,

It would have been impossible to contain dissatisfaction by causing such discord.

"First of all, buy yourself some time, and everyone but us will be in the hiding room..."

Pirokoro was in the process of giving instructions.

You won't be allowed to buy that kind of time.

As the entrance to the warehouse was opened violently, the soldiers of the Rustinel clan broke in with an avalanche.
