19 – Sky Tower Invitation Ticket (1)

The entire continent was inflamed with the newly revealed facts after Regid’s attack that day.

[A shocking incident that occurred during Prince Regid’s sky tower attack promotion event!]

[The sky tower wasn’t all that was revealed on the outside?!]

[One hidden area per layer? maybe there’s more… .]

[The attackers return to the lower floors they have already passed in order to find an unknown hidden area.]

Until now, it was common knowledge that the sky towers built in 13 continents had the same composition for each floor.

However, the existence of the newly discovered ‘hidden area’ completely shook the rules of the game so far.

[‘Hidden Area – Killabet’s Back Garden’ is only available in Kazidum’s Sky Tower… !]

[The raiders gathering to the Kazidum Empire.]

[Currently, the hidden area is controlled by the Empire… When will it be open to the public?]

[Breaking News] [Prince Regid, “The back garden of Killabet will be used as an exclusive hunting ground for the soon-to-open academy. It’s unfortunate for the existing attackers, but please make concessions for the younger students.”]

[Attackers, ask them to let you in at least once. .]

Above all, the biggest shock was that the moment the hidden area was opened, access from the other 12 sky towers was blocked.

This was because it meant that the bases of invaders from all continents could change depending on which region’s sky tower was of good quality and had many hidden areas.

The number of invaders is directly related to the amount of resources harvested.

Turbulent blues were already predicted in each local business world that depended on the Sky Tower.

[Intensive Exploration] [The Sky Tower regular invitation ticket issued for the first time on the continent! How to get it?]

[Currently, the continent’s first and only invitation is held by Prince Legid of Kazidum.]

[Who will be the lucky protagonist who will be chosen by Prince Regid and given an invitation? A state where the attention of the entire continent is focused.]

[‘Meet the Ragged Prince!’ Interview requests flood in from all walks of life.]

People also paid a lot of attention to the invitation card Regid obtained.

In the future, the economic and security-related importance of sky towers will increase even more.

The invitation to artificially create a regular attacker and the method of obtaining it could be said to be worth a thousand gold.

That’s why they were frantic to get even one more letter of information from Regid.

I was carrying out the interview schedule with a few newspapers today.

I was thinking of encouraging the sky tower attack with some shock, but people’s reaction was bigger than expected.

‘Maybe I underestimated the size of the economy tied to the Sky Tower… .’

In a way, the livelihood of many people depends on it, so it’s not something I can’t understand.

Anyway, these days were the days when I accepted and handled the numerous interview requests as much as possible.

ポポポポ~.

A small fairy reporter holding a pen and notebook is flying in the air in front of me, drawing attention.

—Nyanyati Fairy Reporter.

It was the same fairy reporter I interviewed for the first time after returning.

“Then you chose hard mode on purpose, but entering the hidden area was by accident~?🌟”

I nodded and replied.

“I’m sorry for lying to Irene, the crown princess, but Prince Bonn also has his own confidence and ambitions. It was my intention to clear the hard mode from the beginning in order to show that I was independent as an adult.”

The fairy reporter increased the speed of flapping her wings.

“Really~! But it must have been a tough decision for a ‘weak man’~?👁‍🗨”

“I have to go over that point once and for all. If you continue to look down on this prince as a man, you will get a serious nose injury.”

“Wow wow! Are you declaring war on women on the continent who only know how proud they are?!

“I didn’t say that, but… . Please don’t exaggerate… .”

“Hee hee!🎵”

The Nyanyati fairy reporter does a somersault once, then puts her hand on her chin and shakes her head with a rather serious expression.

“There are even people who are re-evaluating the prince’s power these days! ‘The blood of the royal family won’t go anywhere, so maybe the prince is surprisingly strong’—?🪓 Something like that… ?”

“I will not comment on that.”

“Ah~!! What are you doing so crazy~!!💨”

Continuing the interview while appeasing the rampaging fairy reporter.

“… … Attacking hard mode like that… … A strangely shaped rock… … Before I knew it, a new space opened up in front of me. It was the hidden area.”

“What a coincidence!🌟”

I nodded.

“Perhaps the sky tower led me there to let me know there is a hidden area.”

“Ho! There may be such an interpretation. If it wasn’t for the prince, it would have been a long time since the hidden area was discovered! Then the time so far will be wasted!💣”

“Maybe… .”

Those who have realized the existence of the hidden area through my raid will now put more effort into the process of attacking the Sky Tower.

That was exactly what I wanted too.

“Anyway, you ran into the hidden area boss there! It must have been a great battle?! When I came out of the portal, my clothes were torn in places and I was hot and sexy💘 because it must be a trace of a fierce battle!”

“Sud… what?”

“Ah, ah! I can’t speak!! It’s nothing, so please move on!!

Nyanyati, the fairy reporter, hurriedly asked the other question.

“anyway! Anyway!💦 So the reward you got was an invitation ticket. Could you please show me!”

I shook my head.

“I’m sorry, but it seems to be an item in non-material form rather than material.”

“Aha! There seem to be two types of Sky Tower rewards🎁, tangible and intangible!”

At that time, little maid Nia, who was standing on one side, sent a signal with a cautious gesture.

“Anyway, it seems that the interview should be finished at this point due to the schedule. Let me take the last question.”

“ah!! If that’s it——.🌟”

* * *

After the interview with the fairy reporter, I was guided by the little maid Nia and moved to another reception room.

After returning from the Sky Tower, for the past ten days or so, I had been busy dealing with the flood of interviews all day long.

click.

When I entered the reception room through the door opened by Nia, a familiar face I had seen before greeted me with a wide smile.

“Prince!”

It was Cardinal Marilyn of the Goddess Church.

A beautiful woman with her blue hair neatly brushed back.

The body of a mature woman with distinct curves is subtly covered in a white priestly robe.

She walked towards me with a friendly face and spread her arms wide.

‘… … Could it be that I’m going to use the momentum and greet you by hugging you?’

Even so, it seems like he’s acting too casually for the imperial prince.

Even though we’re not that close.

As expected, my escort driver, Feria, stood right in front of the cardinal.

clap.

“Until there.”

“… … What is this?”

The cardinal glared at Feria with an expressionless face and dimmed eyes.

“Aren’t you being too rude to the imperial family?”

“Hey, I—!”

Feria and Marilyn started arguing in sharp tones.

“No matter how much you are a priest of the Goddess Church, please pay due respect to the imperial family.”

“Are you saying I was rude?!”

“You would know better. Your Highness Regid is the forbidden jade leaf of the Kazidum family. Please act in moderation.”

“Heh, okay, ‘lower people’ now step back! Because the ‘superiors’ have something to say to each other!”

“… … .”

Was he conscious of the limits of his job as an escort knight?

Peria hardened her expression a little, then stepped back and stood behind me with a face that couldn’t be helped.

I patted Feria on the shoulder, congratulated him, and then greeted Cardinal Marilyn.

“Nice to meet you, Cardinal. Even if you don’t have to come, I was thinking of visiting the temple sooner or later… .”

Of course, this is a blatant lie.

‘Goddess is somehow reluctant.’

Returning to the past through regression, I can be said to have gone against the providence.

I couldn’t figure out how the goddess living in the sky would see me like that, so I had no choice but to disappear.

I’m not sure if the goddess will like me or hate me, but I’d better avoid going to the temple on my own.

‘Of course, I can’t avoid it forever, but… .’

Still, that was my current policy.

Anyway, when I said that I would visit sooner or later, Cardinal Marilyn showed her disappointment with a tear-stained face.

“Oh, that can’t be… . I waited all day in front of the temple entrance, waiting all week… … .”

‘What a ridiculous lie.’

Who the hell would do such a thing, if not an insane person.

“I see.”

I replied roughly and sat down on the sofa with her.

“I-I’m really… .”

“Yes. thank you.”

Again, I just skipped it.

Tired from the continuous interview schedule, I quickly got to the point.

“It should be nice to see Cardinal Marilyn… You came here a while ago, so why did you come back today?”

“that’s… .”

After sneaking a peek at escort knight Peria and attendant Nia, she asked me again.

“If possible, go alone like last time—”

“It’s not possible!”

Feria, who was standing in the back, objected with a hard face.

Marilyn glared at Feria with sharp eyes.

“You, the lower person, get out of it!”

“This time is an exception! Staying alone with a specific person is not good for the eyes of the public!”

I nodded my head inwardly at Peria’s insistence.

‘Honestly, the other day I gave permission out of curiosity, but… .’

Didn’t he even make a promise to go to the temple along the way because of that?

I also want to avoid living alone.

I opened my mouth to the cardinal.

“Cardinal Marilyn. I think it would be better to follow Peria’s words this time.”

“That, like that… .”

Cardinal Marilyn made a face of great disappointment.

It is a face that reminds me of a child, as if the candy I was looking forward to was taken away.

‘What the hell are you talking about?’

In any case, he shook his head as if to express a clear disapproval to her.

“… … .”

She was messing around with her priestly clothes with a disappointed face, but reluctantly nodded with a face that couldn’t be helped.

“I understand, Your Highness. It seems I made a rude request.”

“sorry. And thank you for your understanding.”

“No. I didn’t think too much——”

“Put… .”

For a moment, it seemed like a very subtle laugh passed by behind me.

When I turned my head, there was only Feria, who had no expression, and Nia, the little maid who was sweating coldly.

‘Nia boy… It must have leaked while holding back a cough.’

It’s a public place, so I’m afraid I’ll be rude, but I think a little cough leaked out.

I gave Nia a small nod as if it was okay and then looked back at the cardinal in front of me.

“… … .”

Was it so dissatisfying that I was rejected?

Cardinal Marilyn was trembling with a feverish face, clutching at her priestly robe as if tearing it apart.

‘Why is this woman like this again?’
