I thought a castle was an unrelated life.

And he also wants to be marginal.

But today, including in my previous life, I was to go to the castle for the first time.

I was not called by royal nobles or officials, but as an uninvited guest.

"... Al, are you ready?

"Huh? Oh, yeah..."

In front of you, Abel in a mask.

I'm not wearing my usual blue robe, it's a black outfit to match the mask.

(... it's surreal)

Something smiles as if the little one is forced to disguise herself.

I don't know how, but my proud ears are also completely hidden.

So it would be impossible to identify the race with a pah. You may look like a human child who's kidding.

........ What's wrong, Al? Look at it as a giro?

"No, anything"

I'm dressed the same way.

I'm sure it's surreal as well.

Note that my beloved sister left it in the world of her dreams.

By now your mother will be holding you and you will be resting in a cup of happiness.

Blah, I don't think that kid can take covert action.

I'm sorry, but you can't take me.

"... then, go"

"Oodle."

"... Al, you can't let go of my hand"

Sooner or later, Mighty Char squeezes my hand without waiting for a reply.

That's how we get away.

The gatekeeper was firm and protected the Bailefeld mansion at night.

It looked kind of fresh, even though it was a natural story.

Walking down the road at night, the landscape you always see also looks a lot different.

The commercial district of Wangdu is close to the Night Castle and bright all night.

Other than that, streetlights are arranged in Wangdu, so the important hubs are bright.

The aristocratic city, too.

So I think the black outfit stands out even at night if it is supposed to be.

But not everything is all bright, either.

As if it were a shadow tread, crossing the darkness from the darkness, it was the Duke's residence that arrived.

I thought you were leaving the aristocratic district, but it seems that the inevitable goal is here.

(House of the Duke of Bauskor......! Generations are the leading aristocrats of the Balinese Kings)

I look back to my mentor. Abel nodded slightly.

".. In the garden of the Duke's residence there is an underground passage leading to the Royal Castle. Yeah, the other way around. It should have been described as going from the royal castle to the outside."

Underground passage!

Is that what you have!

Is it for the royal emergency escape?

If you do have a traditional capital, it's not strange to have passages of that kind. No, there's got to be.

Otherwise, when I was in Gotagota six generations ago, there was no way I could have left the missing 'true royalty'.

There are rumours that the Moonrain royal family has escaped the theatre of usurpation.

It is also true that some bodies were not found, although it may be merely rumours, because they have not since appeared on the tabular stage of history.

If you have truly succeeded in escaping, there is a great possibility that you have made use of these passages.

"But how does Abel know about this passage?

"... knowledge of the Chamber of Commerce, not me, to be precise. Shorcina examines and holds a lot of information as a counter to when the Elves were persecuted and attacked by humans. This is one of them."

Don't do it, Chairman of Commerce.

So you're saying you haven't lived in the world of men for hundreds of years?

"... we're going in here first"

"None!? Ah, Mr. Abel!?"

Master Chima Arch Elf held me back.

I didn't know the day would come when the princess would sneak at me...!

And keep jumping. Jump over the high wall.

(The boulder is the Duke's garden! It's more luxurious than the Bailefelds' yard!

I'd be happy to show it to Fee, but don't bother if he's happy here.

But I think I can make you a little athletic or something, here.

"... use animal-exclusive witchcraft"

Abel knows magic other than people. It seems that animal exclusion is more difficult than human exclusion. I'm sensitive to odors and noises, so naturally, naturally.

Apparently, the black outfit that Abel prepared for me also hangs a magic trick to eliminate odors, but I guess I'm keeping an eye out for it.

(Whoa! Doberman!

Moving on, I saw some dogs.

You have a proper guard dog released, Duke's house.

The Bailefelds don't have it. The patrol is done by humans. Is this a difference in consciousness? Or should I call it a difference in position?

There's a secret passage here, and we're supposed to be more vigilant than anywhere else.

Then he proceeded through the garden and reached the great rock surrounded by trees.

When Abel wrapped a strange gem, the rock moved and the road to the basement appeared.

"Abel, what's that?

"... to activate these tricks, 'Royal Testimony'. That, replica."

"Is that also prepared by the Chamber of Commerce?

"...... hmm. He said he spent about a hundred years analyzing and replicating it a little bit so he wouldn't get suspicious."

Shh, that's amazing, Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. Is it unique to long-lived elves?

Me and Abel went down the underground corridor.

(Is there even a map of the aisle...)

Inside, once every few years, the executives of the Chamber of Commerce seem to be sneaking around. This kind of information doesn't seem to be divulged to end merchants on boulders.

Still, the chamber executives may be more familiar with the underground than the royalty of this country.

The peeping map contained multiple entrance and exit descriptions.

Looks like some of them are already completely blocked.

(Should I remember a little too? No, you won't get a chance to use it)

For that reason, it goes on crisp.

There are many branches, but they don't get lost. It's not even dark because Abel gives me the lights by magic.

"...... hmm. Get up from here. Should be out in the garden of the royal palace."

"Are you okay with watching or something?

"... there are no large souls around. I can't even sense magic. Probably, okay."

"'Probably' what?

"... I think it's possible for a sorcerer who outperforms me to sense"

Where are you, such a person?

The garden, which had entered for the first time, was well settled.

There are several gardens on the property.

The places where aristocratic gatherings and ceremonies open, for example, are gorgeous, and the front yard, which gathers knights to fly revelations and encouragement, is vast.

But here, there is quiet.

Maybe only a limited royalty can get in, or something like that.

Otherwise, it shouldn't even be used for escape routes.

The Chamber of Commerce has prepared a map of the Royal Palace as well.

That you know where it is, and that you have the magic of paying.

Thanks to these two points, he came to the side of the destination as soon as possible.

I was a little concerned about the quality of the guards I saw in the distance.

There were people who were solid and people who were not very nervous.

Is the commander different?

But some servants of my Bailefeldt family may happen to have sloppy men like Fuss.

Held by Abel, he enters the interior from the balcony on the third floor.

Only at night on boulders, not as bright as midday in the royal palace.

Would it convey a little if I described it as just as bright as emergency lights are on, like hospitals at night or schools at night?

There are multiple buildings where royalty sleeps, but the interior also seems to be divided internally.

Since the defense is consolidated around the ground floor, it seems that the third floor where the queen lives does not actually have as many guardians.

We got here easily, but sneaking in must have been very difficult.

"... little magic by the stairs and doors, two at a time. I think this is direct. There is one other great magic. It seems to belong to that kid because it's the same thing I feel when I do my license exam"

The amount of magic your village daughter has, is it 'big' even from Abel's point of view? Awesome.

"Beside the great magic, there is one tiny magic. I think this is that kid's escort. And one terribly starved magic, away. If you're a sick person, maybe this is the person you're after. Not as evil as an elf, but rather distorted (snoring). If I did have something like this enclosed, I wouldn't keep it long."

Village Daughter and Village Daughter, do moms live in separate rooms?

You must have just turned five.

Oh, my God, I'm sure you'll still be sleeping with your mother and Fee next year, huh?

"Well, then, shall we go face to face with your mother"
