Novel Full Chapter 165 - Allen Cell And Political Marriage [16]
165. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [16]
When I declared that I’m going to march into Holy Ronelia Empire,
「I-I’m going too! I definitely don’t want to part ways with Sie in this manner!」
「Of course, I am going with you, too!」
Lilim-senpai and Ferris-senpai immediately showed their approval.
But on the other hand,
「W-Wait a minute, Allen! Whatever the circumstances may be, it’s still too dangerous!」
「Ria is right! If things go sideways, you’ll endanger the entire Ringard Imperial Kingdom, let alone the president!」
Ria and Rose spoke out against it.
「I’m aware of the dangers. Besides “for nobles, their face is more important than their lives”, right?」
「「……」」
When I repeated Rodis-san’s words, they fell silent.
「If a wedding is crushed by『students』like us, the nobles will lose face. Numero Dolan will definitely try to cover it up.」
If we succeed in rescuing the president, Numero is sure to bury that fact to protect his face.
(Will he silence people from talking about it, or set up another bride? …I don’t know what kind of method he’s going to employ, but…)
The unfavourable fact that『the bride was taken away』would be erased by all means.
And in the unlikely event that we fail, the wedding will be carried on without any problem, and they will pretend like the attack never happened.
As a result, the friendly relationship on the surface between the Empire and the Ringard will not be affected.
In either case, it does not cause trouble to the country.
「But… How on earth are you going to sneak into the Empire? You can’t travel through land or air, and you don’t know where Dodriel created the『spot』, right?」Ria pointed out sharply.
「Well, that’s…」
As she said, the travelling method is a big problem.
(If I remember correctly, Rodis-san had pinned down a direct spot to the Empire. If I could go with him, that would be the most reliable method, but…).
Rodis-san called it the『problem of House Arcstria.』
Even if we offer to cooperate again, we will only get rejected.
(Damn, isn’t there any other way…)
And when I was worrying about that,
「Oh right! Better yet, why don’t we go to the『Bloody Fox』? Even Rodis-san learned about the location of the spot from Rize Dorahain!」
Lilim-senpai came up with a good idea, while clapping her hands.
However, Ria, Rose, and Ferris-senpai, shook their head sideways on the spot.
「…Senpai, you’d better give up on that.」
「Ria is right. Nothing good ever comes out of getting involved with that woman.」
「In the first place, you need to make an appointment a few months beforehand to meet the Bloody Fox.」
「I-I see. Yeah, that’s right.」
Lilim-senpai, who had been denied head-on, dropped her shoulders.
「No, but… She met me right away when I went, right?」
When Ria was kidnapped by Zack Bomber and Thor Sammons, I got to meet Rize-san immediately.
At that time, I was at my wit’s end, so I didn’t try to make an appointment like Ferris-senpai said.
「That should be considered an exception among exceptions. Even Tenshi-sama needs to wait a long time to meet the Bloody Fox.」Rose cut in from the side.
「I-Is that so…?」
Everyone nodded.
Realistically speaking, it seems to be quite difficult to meet Rize-san.
After that, everyone thought hard to come up with something, but in the end, we couldn’t come up with a decent plan.
Time kept passing by heartlessly, while the feeling of impatience seethed within all of us.
(Damnit… Even now, as we waste time here, the president is in a terrible place.)
I clenched my fist tightly and wracked my brain desperately.
(There is a considerable distance from the Imperial Kingdom to the Empire. Swimming there is impossible.)
Having said that, airplanes and ships cannot be used.
In the first place, there is no established travel route to a country which is prohibited from travel.
(If that’s the case, Dodriel’s spot becomes essential as a means of transportation.)
Moreover, the problem doesn’t stop there.
Even If we’re lucky enough to find a direct spot to the Empire, what do we do after that?
We know nothing about the geography of the Holy Ronelia Empire. As such, it will be difficult to find Dolan Numero’s whereabouts.
In other words, what we need to look for now is… someone who knows the location of the spot, and also knowledgeable on the geography of the Empire.
(That’s… obviously impossible.)
Even a child can understand that.
These are turbulent times.
There is no way you can find such a convenient person.
(Damn, is there nothing we can do this time…)
And when I was clenching my teeth,
「…It’s raining, isn’t it?」Ria whispered, looking out the window.
I heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window.
Looking out the window, the sky was covered with clouds, as though implying our hopeless situation.
(Rain, huh. Wait!『Rain』!?)
At that moment, an electric current ran through my mind.
(There is one. Yes, there is one person!)
『One person』who is an answer to all our problems.
Knowledgeable in the geography of the Empire and also very informed on the Black Organization – that person must surely know something about the spot!
