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

after that.

I left the enemy general in the camp.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, it flew away.

……

When I returned to the Kingdom of Asura, Ariel seemed to think I hadn't set off yet.

"Mr. Rudius, the situation in war is constantly changing. If we don't set off soon, we might miss our chance."

Ariel reminded me of this.

"It has ended."

"The end means..."

"The enemy was completely wiped out, the general was captured alive, and the fortifications were completely destroyed... That's basically it."

I briefly described the results.

Then, I heard Ariel petrify.

288. Next Steps

"Any questions?"

"No... I just feel like it's going a little too fast."

Ariel rubbed her temples.

Despite considering herself well-informed, she never imagined such a thing would happen.

A super fortress, equivalent to a garrison of 10,000 men, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In just a few days...

To be precise, it was completely overrun within half an hour.

And all of this was accomplished by just one person.

If this gets out, people might mistakenly think that we've recruited a god-level mage.

Do not……

Speaking of which, there is indeed a god-level magician in the Kingdom of Asura.

Ankylosaurus Percius.

He is a mage who has mastered god-level summoning magic.

But that guy couldn't possibly destroy the entire fortress with a single blow like I did, right?

Do not……

Thinking about it carefully, his aerial fortress might actually be able to do it.

After all, it's a weapon designed to counter Laplace, so it should indeed have the capability for sweeping bombardment.

“That should end the war... Luke, comb my hair.”

"Yes."

Luke walked over from the side and combed Ariel's long golden hair.

Ariel rested her chin on her hand, looking utterly bored.

"After a while, once the results of the battle reach both sides, they'll probably start negotiating peace. Then it'll be about ceding territory and paying reparations... How boring."

If you're bored, then don't do it.

Of course, this is just a rant.

It's something I definitely can't say out loud.

"So, there's nothing else I need to do?"

"No, that's all. We'll be sending someone to the Kingdom of Wanglong to meet their king in a few days. Would you like to come along?"

"What am I supposed to do there..."

I changed my mind halfway through my sentence.

The Dragon Kingdom...

Speaking of which, I didn't get a proper goodbye to Benedict last time.

He had also thought about going to the Kingdom of Wanglong to see her.

But no matter what, she is still a princess, so it must be quite troublesome to see her.

At the very least, getting into the palace was a major problem.

Considering this, a suitable identity is indeed necessary.

"Then I'll go with you."

"what?"

"Well……"

After I said that.

Ariel and Luke were both stunned.

Luke frowned, but his hands didn't stop moving.

I always feel...

Recently, their relationship has become much closer.

It turned out to be the case.

It seems something must have happened.

A forbidden love between a queen and a knight...

This is quite surprising.

wrong.

It would be rather unbelievable if nothing happened between the two of them.

After all, Luke likes Ariel so much, and Ariel trusts Luke a lot.

It's perfectly normal for the two of them to have children.

Having said that…

Luke is now the head of the Notos family.

It seems the Queen cannot marry nobles.

"Mr. Rudius?"

"Hmm? I'm here."

Oh no, I was daydreaming.

"Is this also an instruction from Orstide?"

"It's just that I wanted to go."

"Is that so... But even if it is, you wouldn't tell me, would you?"

Ariel gave a self-deprecating laugh.

It felt like she wasn't trusted at all.

I had absolutely no intention of doing that.

That makes sense, though.

Even if Ariel doesn't betray you, she will still be watched by both gods and men.

She must not be allowed to access this kind of information.

"Anyway, I understand. I will put your name on the list of the Dragon King Kingdom, but if a conflict occurs, you will have to find a way to escape on your own."

Ariel blinked and gave her instructions.

"...Will it really turn out that way?"

"The probability is very small, unless they are planning a full-scale war."

So, that's what would happen if a full-scale war broke out?

But then again.

It is basically impossible for a full-scale war to break out.

After all, the Kingdom of Asura and the Kingdom of Wanglong are the two largest countries in the entire Central Continent.

If these two countries were to go to war...

It might escalate into a war on the scale of a human-demon war.

……

After saying goodbye to Ariel.

I returned to Sharia from the capital using a teleportation magic circle.
