Fortunately, the turmoil ended without them being seen by anyone.
Diablo’s group came close to the royal capital.
In this vicinity, there were many carriages that were passing by one another. Even if they had a canopy carriage, if they were to remain undressed, they would surely be seen by a great number of people.
He thought that they were fine since it was no longer hot but……
It was dusk.
Fields dyed red spread out in their surroundings, and gigantic ramparts towered over beyond that.
Several towers that were like spears were built into those ramparts.
──No matter when I see it, there really is an uncomfortable feeling to it.
Only Royal Capital Sevenwall ended up having a great difference in its outward appearance when compared to the MMORPG Cross Reverie.
He remembered his conversation with Lumachina.
「Those ramparts, when were they built?」
「Erm……When I was brought to the royal capital fourteen years ago, they weren’t there but……Ah, it was twelve years ago. When the current Sixth Lifelia King──His Majesty Dalesh Sandros was enthroned, the construction of it immediately started.」
「The Lifelia King huh……」
Diablo turned around to look in the carriage.
There was no longer anyone naked.
Lilitana was making a prim face as if nothing had happened. Rather, the complexion of her skin was somewhat good.
「All that is left is to pass through the city gates, Head of the Holy Knights-sama.」
「U, umu.」
After having seen her true character, he was unable to take a straight look at this pure smile of hers.
It seemed that Shera’s tension had gone too high, and she became exhausted and was asleep.
Putting it plainly, she was living idly.
Thinking “To begin with, did Shera do anything in this journey to the newly developed Southern territory?”, he felt that he had no memory of her doing anything.
No, she did become the cue for meeting with the Kobolds……though it was only because she was about to eat a poisonous fruit.
She also fought against the Royal Palace Knight Geibalt……but the one who defeated him was Rem though.
Other than that, she had her butt caressed by Sorami, licked Diablo’s finger, became naked and stripped Rem……
How would she be as the Elven queen?
Seeing Shera’s figure as she slept with her stomach exposed, Diablo felt sad for the future of the Greenwood Kingdom.
On the other hand, Rem was crouching at the end of the carriage.
Having been stripped naked outside and shouting “it’s going to become a habit～” seemed to have had a lasting effect on her.
*Butsu butsu* She had been muttering to herself the whole time.
Diablo shrugged his shoulders.
「You all, you should get up and make preparations to enter the royal capital.」
「……Kuh……it’s because you didn’t get stripped like m……EH!? Diablo, what is that!?」
「Muh!?」
Rem suddenly made a serious face, and jumped out to the driver’s seat from the carriage. She pointed towards the city.
Lilitana covered her mouth with both hands.
「Is that an army!?」
Diablo’s festive mood was blown away.
An army with a number of soldiers he had never seen before came out from the city gates of the royal capital.
Foot soldiers that were clad in full body armor.
Cavalry where even the horses wore armor.
A musketeer unit that shouldered Magi Guns, and a Magic Cannon unit where an even bigger gun was being pulled by several people.
And then, a standard of a sword and crown that were placed on top of each other, which he had seen even in the MMORPG Cross Reverie, was fluttering in the wind.
「That is an imperial army. It is being led by the King himself.」
It meant that they were the main fighting power of the Lifelia Kingdom Army.
They should be freely investing as much military force as possible. Most likely, even the Royal Palace Chivalric Order is participating.
Grasping the number of enemies confronting him in an instant──Diablo possessed that sort of special skill, but an army was different.
He couldn’t even imagine just how many soldiers were there.
He thought that it wasn’t fifty or sixty thousand of them though.
Rem groaned.
「……In the past, I had gazed at an army of 30,000 but……That is, more than three times the size of that.」
「In other words, does that mean that the number of soldiers is around 100,000?」
「……There might be even more than that.」
They prepared that many soldiers against Diablo?
He prepared himself to fight against a Royal Palace Knight, but this went beyond his expectations.
Moreover, that would mean that they sensed that their group was approaching the royal capital.
Did Lilitana betray them?
No, he found it hard to believe that a person like that would become naked like an idiot in a carriage that was running through a main road.
In that case, was there a report from a checking station?
That was a possibility.
「At any rate, would they really come at us with that much fighting potential?」
「……It’s strange, isn’t it, Diablo. The army seems to be facing towards the east.」
Diablo’s group was south of the royal capital.
Lilitana tilted her head.
「What could that mean?」
She was excellent, but it seemed that she wasn’t well-versed in military affairs.
Rem answered.
「……It probably means……that the army’s target, isn’t us.」
Diablo patted his chest in his mind.
However, his strict expression was left undestroyed.
──Well, since I’m crossdressing, it’s not like I have any majesty or anything though.
「East of the Lifelia Kingdom is……The Holy Nation Vilar?」
「……There should be non-aggression treaties formed with foreign countries.」
Even if there is a treaty, one couldn’t say that there absolutely wouldn’t be a war.
However, there was no one riding on this carriage that could speak about politics and military affairs.
「Hmph……It would seem that things have become troublesome.」
「……What shall we do, Diablo?」
「Hurry to the royal capital! Naturally!」
He couldn’t allow himself to get cold feet at this late point in time. If turmoil was happening, that is all the more reason why they couldn’t be separated from Sylvie’s group.
Diablo tightly gripped the reins.
「It’s going to shake! Tightly grab onto something!」
Lilitana clung onto the carriage, and Rem vigorously replied.
「It is fine!」
「Let’s go!」
Since the carriage violently shook all of a sudden, Shera raised her voice going 「Uwaah!」 and jumped to her feet.
「Wh, what!? What’s going on!? Did something happen!?」
There was no one that answered her questions.
Making a sidelong glance at the lines of armed forces headed towards the east, Diablo’s group headed towards the royal capital.
