Chapter 552
The imperial mausoleum is inside the imperial castle.
Infiltrating the imperial castle is almost the same difficulty as infiltrating the temple.
Of course, it would be more difficult to infiltrate the castle now that the temple is almost empty, but the conditions to penetrate the entrance should be the same.
There must be something related to entry permission, and unauthorized entry is impossible.
Of course, it was impossible to enter with teleport or other magic.
The warp gate in the Palace of Spring has no start-up artifact, and even if there is, the gate is already broken, so you can’t go there.
Sarkegar could turn into a bird and enter the temple, but I can’t change into a bird. Strictly speaking, even if they change, they cannot flap their wings.
Even if that’s the case, it’s useless for me to enter. I can use the power of corruption that dwells in Tiamata, but I can’t handle it freely like Olivia.
Charlotte suggested several ways for us to break into the Imperial Castle, but none of them required significant risks or were far from perfect.
In the first place, it would be even more strange if Charlotte knew how to trespass into the castle.
Most of the elite members of the Empire, including Shanafell, were away.
Even if you managed to infiltrate the imperial castle, if you were discovered, you might be able to run away or escape.
It is a problem even if the story that the demon king reappears and plays havoc spreads throughout the imperial capital, and it is even more problematic if the news reaches the allied forces.
people are afraid of me
While destroying the gate, the allied forces fall into a panic just by imagining that the imperial capital might be destroyed by the demon king’s attack.
In any case, I was just here to make a joke that was not enough even to say that I was bold, but I hoped that there would be no fuss.
For now, infiltrating the imperial palace isn’t up to me, but… … .
Because I’m not going in yet.
So, first of all, a national cemetery built in a hilly area in the northern part of the imperial capital, which is a little safer than the imperial castle.
It is true that this place is also an honored place for those who have made great majors to enter.
After all, not only those who enter the imperial tomb are heroes.
“It’s amazing.”
Among the many roads in the northern part of the ecliptic, we were standing in a field where the national cemetery in the northern part of the ecliptic could be seen in the distance.
It is more like a park than a graveyard. It is natural that the site is built on a large scale.
The reason it is still alive despite being on the outskirts of the ecliptic is probably because this place is not worth destroying to the monsters.
Because monsters don’t care about corpses.
“There are people who come and go unexpectedly.”
“There has to be.”
Not only were there troops at the huge entrance, but there were quite a few people coming in and out.
may be family members. It could be that they were the ones who sought comfort for the dead.
No matter how tough life is, there are bound to be people who pay condolences. No, maybe it’s more than usual because it’s a time like this.
Those who honor, remember, and grieve someone’s death.
We’ve come to take the body from them.
Anyone can offer condolences, and anyone can stay here.
There are troops and there are gatekeepers, but you don’t need any special status to get in here.
That is why we were able to enter the National Cemetery without any restraints. Just as others go in and out of national cemeteries without much restraint.
It is more like a huge park than a graveyard.
The imperial mausoleum was, of course, a place only members of the royal family could enter, and this place was open to civilians.
I wonder what a national cemetery close to such a huge park means to those who live hard.
Should I say that it is fortunate that the foundation of the imperial capital has not collapsed to the extent that robbery has occurred openly in this place.
Perhaps because space is space, the people passing by were all calm, regardless of where they were.
As soon as I entered, the tombs were not spread out in rows, and there was a map showing various spaces for commemoration.
Looking at the map, Olivia crosses her arms.
“The divisions are divided. It looks like the cemetery has expanded to the east. It seems to be a compartment for the dead.”
The area you can enter is also different depending on your merit.
Some are buried in open-air cemeteries, and it is believed that there are temples and catacombs for those who have done great deeds.
“Primarily, stopping by the graves of the dead is the first, and secondly, stopping by the central catacombs is correct.”
If we don’t get punished, it seems like we’re strange people… … .
People go to commemorate with gloomy faces, but we are thinking of stealing.
No, more than stealing.
“There are quite a few people. I am still bright. We can wait until night before we get into action.”
A lot of time has passed since I arrived at the ecliptic, but it is still broad daylight.
“There is still time, so let’s go there.”
Seeing where I pointed, Olivia tilted her head, and so did Harriet.
The place I pointed to on the map is not another place.
innocent graveyard.
My heart feels heavy just by looking at it, but I heard it from Charlotte.
‘… … I’ll be there.’
Epinhauser.
and Loyard.
I heard that their graves are here.
* * *
The day the gate situation was opened.
Epinhauser and Royard, and Lucinil and Sarkegar came to rescue me.
Epinhauser and Royard were killed, and Lucinil and Sarkegar were captured.
The bodies of the two would not have been buried in this national cemetery in the first place.
It is unknown how it was managed, but through some circumstances, it must have been buried in an unrelated cemetery in the National Cemetery.

Both are traitors to humanity who sided with the Demon King. Therefore, it would not have been possible to have a tomb with a name engraved on it.
Even if it was a grave without family, wouldn’t it be the regret and apology of the Gradias royal family that had them buried in the national cemetery?
That doesn’t mean the dead will come back.
Olivia and Harriot also know that Dr. Epinhauser died fighting to save me, and they know about Loyard’s existence.
Epinhauser and Royard, who know their identities but cannot have a tombstone with their names engraved on them, become the owners of a graveyard without relatives.
“… … .”
Nameless tombstones were scattered around the memorial tower.
I do not know which of these tombstones are Royard’s and which are Epinhauser’s.
Both Harriet and Olivia had the same firm expression.
Are you afraid of what will come out of my mouth?
fearful imagination.
We have something to do, so we can’t help but think about it in connection with it.
They think I might try to revive Royard and Epinhauser as Death Knights.
“Reinhardt… … . Even if he returns, he probably won’t have any consciousness or ego… … .”
“… … .”
“Becoming a Death Knight while alive is different from raising a dead being.”
Epinhauser was a sword master.
Royal, who is presumed to have been more powerful than that.
Of course, making it a Death Knight would help.
But that wouldn’t be it.
“Why would I?”
I can’t help it if I say it’s selfish.
“I don’t want to make anyone I know like that.”
I have come to make consumables for war.
And, I have no intention of doing anything terrible, taking those who were precious to me.
But it wouldn’t be any less terrifying to make something like that out of strangers.
No, the idea itself that you can’t make a precious person and make it with someone else is more terribly selfish.
It’s a terrible idea, but consumables should be made consumable. And these are beings that I cannot regard as expendable.
These are the ones who sacrificed for me.
Let’s just let them rest.
It is not that their souls dwell in them even if they are commanded again. No, it would be a terrible thing to say that it nested.
I can’t really tell you how much of a difference there is between taking advantage of the deaths of people who were irrelevant to me and taking advantage of the deaths of people who were related.
But isn’t this kind of favoritism inevitable?
What did Loyard want?
It seemed that he wanted to rebuild the Demon Realm, and it seemed that he didn’t.
He didn’t seem to be very loyal to me, but in the end, he was a faithful subordinate no different from Sarkegar.
Everyone in the Rotary club died too.
After losing everything, Loyard died to protect the last of me.
I don’t know much about Loyard.
Epinhauser is even more so.
“I still don’t know.”
“what… … ?”
“Why did Dr. Epinhauser die trying to save me?”
My cooperation with Dr. Epinhauser’s plan to save me had nothing to do with the Black Order.
In fact, Order tried to kill me, and most of the remaining core forces were destroyed. The remnants who escaped would be the ones not worth caring about, so in fact, the Black Order should be considered extinct.
Epinhauser believed me.
I don’t know what he believed in, but he tried to save me because he believed in me.
“Do you remember the time I fought with Orbis class guys before?”
“huh… … .”
A fight with Rilka Aaron and Oscar de Gradias.
This led to the closure of Orbis Class.
“At the disciplinary committee, Mr. Epinhauser said that.”
“What do you mean?”
“They say I’m the greatest talent in Temple history.”
I thought it was just a lie to protect me.
When I said after the disciplinary committee, how could I be called that when Ellen was there, Epinhauser said with a straight face that he really thought so.
“My ability is what I know best. But, no matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t think I was like that. so how about something It was embarrassing.”
What did Epinhauser see in me?
“But now that I think about it, I don’t think it can be said that Mr. Epinhauser was wrong.”
Neither Harriet nor Olivia could answer my words.
I don’t know if it compares to Ellen or not.
If there is anyone who can stand up to Ellen, there will be very few people besides me at this point.
If I can beat Ellen, Epinhauser will be right.
I don’t know why he died to protect me or what he saw in me.
He had no intention of reviving him as a Death Knight, and even if he did, conversation would be impossible, so he would never know.
From the beginning, I liked Epinhauser in Class A, who was blunt and uninterested in students, rather than someone like Mr. Mustang, who was kind and friendly in Class B.
But I was wrong.
Epinhauser was not a teacher who was not interested in his students.
I still don’t know Epinhauser.
“Let’s go.”
However, he seems to have known me.
