Chapter 172: Allen Cell and Political Marriage [23]172. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [23]
Following the information on the location of the spot, we were able to get other important pieces of information from Rain.
The traits of the noble, Numero Dolan, and where his residence is located.
Buildings which serve as landmarks and the rough geography of the Holy Ronelia Empire.
A simple internal structure of Belios Castle, the headquarters of the Black Organization.
As expected of one of the Thirteen Knights of the Oracle, he knew a lot of things.
「Well, is there anything else you want to ask?」
「No, this is enough. Thank you, this really helps me!」
I never imagined that things would progress so well.
「Fuu, don’t worry about it. I couldn’t be happier to be of help to Allen.」Rain said, and laughed with a hint of satisfaction.
「I wonder why a Thirteen Knight of the Oracle is cooperating with Allen-kun, but… Anyway, this has opened our path towards Sie!」
Since Lilim-senpai doesn’t know about Rain, she said so excitedly and made a tight fist.
「Now, if only we knew the time and location of the wedding ceremony, it would be perfect, though…?」
Following that, Ferris-senpai asked modestly.

Rain shrugged his shoulders with a bitter face.
…Well, that can’t be helped.
There is no way he can know the movements of the Black Organization with absolutely no contact with the outside.
(As Ferris-senpai said, the only thing left is the『ceremony hall』and『time』…)
After getting into the Empire, we will have no choice but to gather that information locally.
When I was thinking about that,
「The wedding location is at the residence of Numero Dolan. The wedding time is twelve o’clock in the Empire’s standard time. Considering the time difference, it’s about ten hours from now.」
Unbelievable information rolled in from an unexpected person.
「C-Clown-san…?」
「I have my own information network too. Well, it does not compare to Rize-san though.」
「That’s not it… Are you going to help us?」
He was strongly opposed to us going to the Empire earlier.
「That’s right… In a manner of speaking, this is a『special victory bonus』for winning against me in the『unexpected way』you did a little while ago!」
Clown-san’s eyes were serious, even though he said something silly.
「Allen-kun, you’re in a much more『important position』than you think. You must absolutely not die in a place like that–not a single person wants that. So, no matter what, please come back safely, okay?」
「O-Okay…」
To be honest, I don’t really understand what he’s talking about, but…
It seems that he is supporting me in his own way.
Now that everything was ready,
「If possible, I’d like to go with you, too.」
Rain whispered so, and turned his eyes to Clown-san.
「No, no, no, no… That’s impossible. To release a Thirteen Knight of the Oracle on my arbitrary judgement, even more so, sending them out to the Empire… If such a thing is found out by the headquarters, I will be fired without trial. On the contrary, I, too, would be imprisoned as a notorious criminal who conspired with the Black Organization!」
He shook his head from side to side vigorously.
Even if it is temporary, Rain’s release seems to be unrealistic.
「I’m sorry, Allen. It seems that I can’t be of any more help.」
「No, this was good enough. Thank you.」
Thanks to him, I’m more ready than ever.
(Everything else depends on us!)
Then we parted with Rain and headed to the exit of the dungeon; to that spiral staircase in quick steps.

From here to Drestia, it takes about three hours if we hurry.
After that, we have to head to the Ringard branch of Phantom Spirit Laboratory, and find the hidden『spot』there.
(…We don’t seem to have much time. Let’s hurry up a little.)
As we walked along the long passageway of the dungeon,
「W-Wait a minute!」
Lilim-senpai stopped in front of a certain prison, and shouted so in a loud voice.
Her face was dyed with shock. It wasn’t normal.
「What’s wrong…?」
「L-Look at this guy!」she said, pointing to the cell in front of her.
Imprisoned within that cell was a young man wearing a black-and-white border prison uniform.
Sitting on the pipe bed, he was completely still. Not even a twitch. Almost like a stone statue.
In addition, I can’t even see his face because of the overgrown brown hair.
And yet… I felt like I had seen him before.
And then,
「Oi, you! Aren’t you…Sebas!?」
When Lilim-senpai called out that name, it rang a bell.
