CHAPTER 149 . 5: —SIDE PRUSSIA— STEADILY ADVANCING PROGRESS



 

The Prussia live’s venue was set to be on a main street plaza a short distance away from the castle . A stage was being built there for Manaril to sing and dance on .

 

They were utilizing Daichi’s design as an example, so it was going quite smoothly . It was approximately 80% complete, all that was left were the finishing touches .

…… . they weren’t able to imitate the feat of creating a stage within a few moments .

After thinking about the incredible speed that he had used to create the stage, she smiled wryly .
However, it seems like they would be able to finish it within the week before the live .
It was very good progress . However,

「I didn’t think there would be so many people gathering…」



There was already a large crowd of men and women gathered around the venue . The ratio was about 50/50 men and women .

Those people seemed to all be carrying equipment with Manaril’s face on it .

She confirmed this from the window of her office . She then focused her ears to hear what they were saying .

『…… . . so this is where Manaril-chan’s live is going to be? I’m looking forward to it . 』
『That’s right . After hearing the Princess’s schedule I had to get ready for this . 』

She heard various things like that that made it clear what they were here for .

「I had no idea of Mana-dono’s popularity…it seems I was ignorant in the ways of the world . 」

Dianeia murmured and turned to look at Manaril who was sitting in the room with an apologetic look on her face .


「S-sorry . I had thought that there were more people than usual when I did lives in the Fort City, but I never thought that this many would gather here . 」


「Ahh, no, that’s not it . It’s just proof that my information gathering was insufficient, please don’t worry . 」

Though she may be a bit removed from the common folk, it wasn’t good that she was ignorant of the existence of this songstress .

… . . it’s just evidence of the stress she’d been under lately .

After she’d gone through some soul-searching, Dianeia looked at Manaril .

「Anyways, sorry to call you over today . I have some things I’d like to talk about, is it ok?」
「Yeah, I don’t mind . All that’s left for me to do is a rehearsal with the spirits . 」
「Thank you . ——for now I’d ask you to be careful not to be seen by the crowd too much before the live . 」
「…I suppose you’re right . That should help . It could cause some trouble . 」

Just as Manaril said, the live preparations would have to be done carefully .
Since there was an event like this, it’d be good if the townspeople could enjoy .



For that purpose, Dianeia had to check on the things bothering her now . She walked to the desk and grabbed some papers .

「By the way Mana-dono…we did find one thing about Katarakta . 」
「Eh? Really?」
「Yeah, it seems that when Katarakta is unsealed and starts eating magic to revive, it influences nearby dragons . 」

After inquiries and checking the library, there was quite a lot of data .

「A normal dragon with its reasoning intact won’t be affected, but the wild ones without any sense will be influenced and indiscriminately try to gather strong magic . 」
「Ahhh, that sounds right . That sounds like Katarakta’s poisonous magical influence . 」

With Manaril’s confirmation, it seemed the chances of this data being accurate was very high .

The recent increase in dragon attacks may also be caused by this .
Katarakta’s power and influence were mixed in with the water . There may be wild dragons that drink it and fly out from the forest to the town .

However, in town there was her and Karen who could send them packing .

「Just by looking at this information, I can tell what a malicious existence it is . 」
「Yes, if it eats magic and fully escapes from the seal it’ll be serious . Us Dragon Kings would have to all work together to seal it once again . 」
「Umu, we need to focus so that doesn’t happen . 」

Prussia would be in terrible danger if it did happen .
The entire town’s water supply would be poisoned, falling into an unprecedented crisis .

「Ok then, I’ll be working with the spirits in my room . Maybe you should patrol the town a bit . 」
「Umu, got it . Then I’ll head to the venue and check on it . 」

And so, Dianeia headed off into the lively town . She had a lot to do, so she started completing them one-by-one .
