Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

Kyrie Illya will naturally accompany Ariel to Ars in order to kill Darius, and perhaps Alice will go along as well.

My family will take action, and I certainly won't stand idly by.

And in the process...

The apostles of God and Man will attack me.

"By the way, we can launch an attack anytime, right?"

“Your home is protected by a sacred beast, so the apostles of gods and men dare not come here.”

"Is that guy really that good...?"

It gives off a feeling similar to Hachiko, the loyal dog...

Well……

Given this situation, should we offer assistance or not?

If I force them to obey, Silphie and Alice should listen.

But I don't want to do that.

That would definitely leave a lingering resentment between the two of them.

I don't want to do anything that would damage a couple's relationship.

However, assisting Ariel does indeed involve certain dangers...

No.

Upon closer examination, the odds of winning are actually quite high.

With Leo protecting my home, I have no worries.

In a direct confrontation, Alice and I together are enough to handle the enemy.

Moreover, Luke can no longer become an apostle of God and Man.

In other words, the only enemy that needs to be dealt with is one that attacks from the front.

"Have you made up your mind, Rudeus?"

Orstead said.

"If you decide to assist Ariel, I will also take certain measures to ensure that Ariel can successfully ascend the throne."

"……Yeah."

In addition, there is the power of Orstide.

Although we don't know exactly what methods he used.

But he had previously stated that he had successfully planted a spy within Darius's inner circle.

Presumably, they had considered the possibility of assisting Ariel beforehand.

So……

"Okay, it's decided."

I made up my mind.

To help Ariel ascend the throne.

……

That being said.

The most important thing right now is the development of the magical armor.

If we can complete this latest model of magical armor, our chances of winning will greatly increase.

After receiving the intelligence.

Another month has passed.

Me, Seven Stars, Zanoba, Cliff, Percius.

Experimental subjects.

New type of magical armor.

"Finally...it's finished..."

Zanaba was filled with emotion.

"Yes, we've really sacrificed so much for this moment."

I couldn't help but sigh.

"I've helped you so much, so please continue to assist me in the future."

Qixing said.

"Of course..."

"Alright, enough of this nonsense, let's get started with the experiment."

"makes sense."

At Percius's urging.

I walked toward the magical armor.

……

In terms of external design, it's not significantly different from previous magical armor.

But there are two differences.

First, a new groove for replacing magic crystals has been added to the chest area.

As envisioned.

Even if I am not the source of magic, or if no one is wearing it at all, it can still run automatically using magic crystals as a power source.

This is a bit of a luxury for the average person.

But since we're already using magical armor, why worry about such a small amount of money?

Second, it concerns the flight balance system.

This is something that Seven Stars and Zanobba have been researching recently.

The initial idea was simply to use gravity magic to reduce the weight and then use wind magic to propel it.

But that was only possible when there was no equipment.

If you wear magical armor, you can put a little thought into it and use things like dynamics to achieve balance.

The final result was something resembling wings.

It's not just armor, it's a magical artifact.

It can work as long as magic is infused into it.

"So, shall I begin?"

I asked the crowd.

"hurry up."

Percius urged impatiently.

"alright……"

I took a deep breath, pressed my fingers to the center of my chest, and infused them with a faint magical power.

Then, chant the incantation to activate it.

"Those who gain wings of freedom will lose their feet as the price..."

"Wake up, Icarus!"

Everyone held their breath.

silence.

A long silence followed.

No one dared to make a sound.

……

……

"Om-"

The magical armor raised its arm.

Then, it began to move slowly.

Each piece of armor opens and closes.

It took about three minutes to complete this series of actions.
