I was stopped because of the snow.
I wonder if Sylphy has already left the snowy region.
I'm getting really impatient.
■
I finally reached the Kingdom of Asura.
But, I was stopped at the border by something troublesome.
It seems that because I was wanted in Milis, I was treated as a criminal in Asura as well.
They tried to restrain me, and I escaped in a panic.
I'll have to find smugglers somehow.
■
I managed to find a smugglers guild.
It seems that these kinds of organisations exist anywhere you go.
It seems like I was the talk of the guild, and they looked at me with envy.
As the thief that stole God Ranked chants from the Holy Kingdom of Milis, I was a celebrity.
When I explained the situation to them, it was decided that I'd be guided by a voluptuous female thief named Triss.
I'm worried that if Sylphy sees me with this woman, she'll get the wrong idea.
■
I entered the Kingdom of Asura.
I put on a hood and mask to hide my face.
From now on my name was Rude Ronumar, and came up with a lie about how my face was cursed, and people who saw it would be turned to stone.
It was decided that Ronumar was a magician working away from his home in Basherant, and was being shown around by his cousin Triss.
Because they thought about various things for me, I bowed.
■
I got hold of information about the King's death.
There was also a rumor about fighting between the princes for his position.
That's probably why Ariel returned here quickly.
■
We'll reach the capital soon.
However, I've heard nothing but suspicious things about Ariel.
It seems that she had assembled troops and staged a coup d'état or something.
It seems that people don't think that she has what it takes to win.
Well, Ariel probably isn't that stupid.
It's just a rumor.
■
We reached the capital.
When I left the role of gathering information to Triss and entered the bar, I spotted Eris.
Could she have followed me all the way here?
No, that's not it.
She was born in the Kingdom of Asura.
In the first place, our destination was probably the same.
■
It seems that Ariel's hidden herself.
Of course, Luke and Sylphy too.
Will I be able to find them?
■
I can't find them.
Triss thinks that they've already left the capital and moved to another town.
Places that Ariel seems like she'd go to... Luke's family's house, perhaps?
Tomorrow, I'll propose to Triss about going to the Notus family's territory.
■
We came to the Milbotts region, governed by Philemon Notus Greyrat.
At the same time, we managed to get hold of information that said that Ariel was hiding in the Notus home.
But how can I meet with Sylphy?
Should I break in?
■
When I entered the Notus home, for some reason Eris was there and I was beat up.
I was caught, thrown into a dungeon, there a person whose face resembled Paul, called themselves Philemon and verbally abused me.
It seems that for some reason, he thinks that I'm here to usurp the Notus house.
After saying that he'd execute me tomorrow and hand my head over to the Milis Church, he left.
After that, I escaped but... Ariel wasn't in Philemon's territory.
