An hour later, Sam was at the palace with Ur and Günther.

At first, Hualien and Suiju said they would come with him, but when Ur asked them to protect the house, they agreed to do so.

It was already late at night, and when they tried to enter the palace, they were stopped by the Kingsguard, but they insisted that they had urgent business to attend to.

The Kingsguard were reluctant to do their duty, but when Sam, the most powerful wizard in the kingdom, Günther, the court wizard and the next head of the ducal family, and Ur, the former court wizard who was supposed to be dead, stood side by side, they had no choice but to obey.

Sam and his friends were in front of the bedchamber of Clyde Isle-Sky, the king of the Kingdom of Sky.

Ur knocked loudly and loudly in the middle of the night.

"Who is it?"

Clyde's voice came back from inside the room, and Sam called through the door on his behalf.

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you at this time of night, but this is Sam.

"Sam? Come in anyway."

The tone of his voice, which had been hard at first, turned softer as soon as he heard Sam's name.

"...... Hey, isn't Your Majesty kind of sweet on Sam? Normally, you wouldn't scold them or complain about their sudden arrival in the middle of the night, would you?"

"Ulrike didn't know. Sam is the nephew of His Majesty.

"Huh! What's that? Well, never mind, we'll hear about it later.

Listening to the exchange between Ur and Günther, Sam slowly opened the door to Clyde's bedroom.

The light was on in the room, and Clyde seemed to be at his desk doing some paperwork.

He had not yet changed into his nightclothes.

"Mr. Clyde, I apologize for the unexpectedness.

No problem. As you can see, I was not yet asleep. Günther's here too, and there's one more person...

Clyde looked up when he noticed that there was someone else there besides Sam, then his eyes widened and he dropped the pen in his hand.

"That's ...... impossible, why is Ulrike here? Were you not supposed to be dead?"

"It's being restored for a limited time because of the people of Najaria."

Clyde looked at Ulle, who cowered his shoulders, with a bitter look on his face.

"I didn't know that family was capable of such a thing. I'm afraid we don't know what they're up to.

"Uh, no, you don't have to act like that anymore."

What?

When Clyde felt again threatened by the people of Najaria, Ur's words came as a shock to him.

"Ur? What are you talking about? What do you mean, playacting?"

When Sam's questioning was interrupted by Ur telling him to wait a moment, he continued to speak to Clyde.

"Your Majesty, I awoke in a settlement of the people of Najaria. I was about to be used as a pawn in a fight with Sam."

"...... seems like Sam is in the way. He took your corpse because he wanted to use you against Sam.

"It seems so. So, there was no way they could control me, and I had to fight with Najaria's warriors. Of course, now that I am here, you don't have to ask me if I won or lost.

"That's Ulrike Scheidt Walker. It's good to see you fighting the warriors of Najaria and coming back in one piece."

"Oh, no, sir. There are no more warriors among the people of Najaria.

"-, that means, no way!"

"Yes, we have killed all the warriors."

"...... What an accomplishment that is. No one has ever done anything like that before."

Clyde believed Ur's words.

Having known Ur since she was a child, Clyde knew she was not a delusional person.

He also knew that she was capable of taking on the people of Najaria and winning.

"I have left them alone because I have no taste for non-combatants, even mere folk, but I leave it to your majesty to decide whether or not to destroy that clan. I remember their strongholds and will guide you there if necessary. I will even work as a former court wizard if you ask me to."

"It would be reassuring if you could help us!"

"But first, I'd like to have a heart-to-heart talk with you, Your Majesty."

"--What are you talking about?"

I said, that's enough. I know, approximately. Your Majesty Clyde, and you, Günther. You two have known all along what the people of Najaria are really up to and why they're after the Kingdom of Skye.

"............"

Neither Clyde nor Günther refuted the question, but answered in silence.

"I'll take silence as an affirmative."

"I suppose you won't let me say what it's about."

"Of course. I tortured the warriors lightly before I killed them, so I have some information. But I wanted to confirm it with Your Majesty.

Clyde exhaled loudly.

"Then let me ask you the opposite. What is the longing of the people of Najaria, as you know it?"

"--Revival of the old demon king."
