	Zeta and Zuusha are moved to the Special Ambassador’s room, ~~Dakaskos~~ and Sizemore tasked with looking after them.

	We also got new information from the blood letter. Although even the most knowledgeable of us all, Lord von Christ can’t interpret the Seisakoku language either, but the letter was written in the common language at a ~~kindergartener’s~~ level. ~~Once we read~~ it calmly~~, with a clear head~~, there should be plenty more hidden clues.		We also got new information from the blood letter.

If a sharp-minded individual reads it calmly, there should be plenty more hidden clues.

	“Right here. Vene… It’s not easy, but I think it’s Venera. Since our language has no such verb, it should be a noun? If not a place then a person. So, the word ‘save’ does not refer to the senders of the letter, but this ‘Venera’ place or person. As for the twins who are causing Your Majesty’s low mood, perhaps they have something they are more worried for than their own lives.”		“Right here. Vene… It’s not easy, but I think it’s Venera.
