Primis: I see. Never heard of you before.
Roswaal: .........…
Rem: ............
Both Roswaal and Rem became dumbfounded hearing this. Roswaal soon returned to himself and replied while smiling.
Roswaal: Well, it can't beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee help. Not everyone knowsssssssssssssssssss about my meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Rem: Y-You really don't know about Master Roswaal.
Primis: I don't. And I am sure Subaru doesn't know about him either.
Rem: Master Roswaal is the pillar for Fire, Earth, and Water magic.
Primis: Oh. Good for him.
Roswaal: ............
Rem: ............
[Pfft. Hahahahahahahaha. I am sure they must be thinking whether you are complimenting him or mocking him.]
'Primis: Do you think I even gave a damn about it?'
[Correct. You don't.]
Primis: Anyway, I am tired and want to rest.
Roswaal: Oh righttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt. I forgot abouttttttttttttttttttttttt it. Let's talk in the morningggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg.
Saying this Roswaal turned and left. Next, Primis followed Rem to his room. When he reached the room allocated to him, the door of the room next to it opened and Ram came out. She turned towards their direction and bowed.
Ram: Your campion is resting in this room.
Primis gave a nod to her before entering his own room while Rem stayed outside.
Rem: If sir need anything, please call us.
Primis: Ok.
CLICK!!!
Closing the door, Primis walked towards the window of the room.
KCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He moved the curtains to the side as the moonlight entered inside. Next, Primis moved a round table and chair that was in the room right under the window. Next, he placed his Gun Blade on the table before sitting on the chair. Since he was not tired, there was no need for sleep.
30 minutes later.
Primis, who was looking outside of the window suddenly opened his mouth.
Primis: You are back.
Kyubey: I am.
Kyubey appeared out of thin air and laid on the table as if resting. Moving his gaze at this small cat-like creature, Primis asked.
Primis: So, how did it go?
Kyubey: Just like you said. Other three candidates don't think of this half-elf----
Primis: Emilia.
Kyubey: Alright, Emilia. They don't think of her as a threat. That human "Priscilla Barielle" even looked down on her and if opportunity arises, she won't let it go to humiliate or lower Emilia position in other people eyes.
Primis: Can't say I am surprised. I expected that much.
'Primis: When I meet that spoiled brat in near future, I will make sure to teach her a lesson.'
Primis: Next.
Kyubey: Anastasia Hoshin. Though she doesn't have the intention of humiliating Emilia, she also doesn't think of her as a threat.
'Primis: Anastasia, Huh. Well, she is not that big of a problem. I have a way so that she will come under me.'
Primis: Last one.
Kyubey: Crusch Karsten. It's true that she also doesn't think of Emilia as a threat. But unlike the other two, she respects her for being chosen by Dragon Insignia.
'Primis: Crusch is someone I want under me no matter what. Her leadership qualities are something I can't let go of like this. She will be fine general to lead the army.'
Primis: Good.
Kyubey: Um. By the way, I don't understand why you want to help this Half-Elf, I mean, Emilia. I know you want to create your own army, but do you really think she is worth it.
Primis: You will know.
That's all Primis replied with. He had no intention of explaining.
'Primis: As a main Heroine, Emilia's has a lot of potential. Just like Ais and Akame. If I train her, then she will become a force to be recon with.'
Kyubey: Oh. One more thing. I came across an interesting person while I was doing what you told me.
Primis: Hmm. Someone you find interesting can't be simple.
Kyubey: That's true.
Primis: So, what about it?
Kyubey: This person will be a huge boost for your army.
Primis: And......
Kyubey: You must put a leash on him, otherwise, he will go and do his own thing.
Primis: Just like I put the leash on you and your race.
Kyubey: Exactly.
Primis: .........
'Primis: In that case, there is only one person who meet all the criteria.'
Primis: I will meet him before going to the next world.
Kyubey: Sure.
Time went by as kept on having conversations with each other. In case some heard what their talk then they would scare out of their wits. Because their conversations were not as simple as people or different worlds, but ones at multiverse level.

Morning came.
Light from the sun entered the room through the window.
KNOCK!!
KNOCK!!
At this time, Primis heard the knock on the door. Kyubey had already closed its eyes and had fallen asleep on the table. Primis didn't mind because as long as Kyubey didn't want, no one could see him except him. The reason why Sheng Ming, Ais, and Moltres could see it was because it let them too. As for Ophis, there's no way it could hide from her.
Primis: Come in.
CLICK!!!
The door opened and Rem could be seen standing outside. She showed a surprised expression before bowing a little.
Rem: I am sorry. Since it was a tiring yesterday, I didn't expect Sir Rigla would wake up this early.
Primis: Don't worry about it...... So, what is it?
Rem: I just want to tell Sir Rigla that breakfast will be ready in an hour.
Primis: I will be there. You can leave.
After bowing one last time, Rem closed the door and left.
CLICK!!
Moving his gaze at the sleeping Kyubey, Primis thought.
'Primis: Celebi or Moltres will wake up soon. Maybe in an hour or two.'
Next, he leaned back on his chair.
'Primis: Those invaders who want to catch Celebi will be coming to this world too.'
[Of Course, they will. There is no way they will let go of a pokémon who has power over time.]
At this time, the corner of Primis his lips raised a little.
'Primis: I really can't wait. Since they will surely bring a Legendary Pokémon with them in order to capture Celebi.'
[That's a foregone conclusion. But the question is which one.]
'Primis: We will know once they will come.'
[That's true.]
Primis: Hmm?
Suddenly, Primis sensed something. He got up from his chair and left the room. Moving his gaze to the left he walked for a few steps and opened the door of the next room.
CLICK!!!!
Just after entering he saw Subaru lying on the ground completely unconscious. He crouched down and carried Subaru on his shoulder like a rice sack before leaving the room. Completely ignoring the rows of books on the shelves. Completely ignoring the artificial spirit who was looking attentively at him. He just opened the door and was about to left when......
???: Wait.
Stopping, he glanced at the one who seemed like a lovely young girl around the age of eleven or twelve. Her large eyes were sky-blue in color with pink butterfly patterns in them. Her pale cream blonde hair that was worn long and tied into frilly vertical drill-shaped twin tails that could act like a spring in case some pulled them. She was an artificial spirit created by the "Witch of Greed" 400 years ago. Great Spirit of the Forbidden Library, Beatrice.
Beatrice: Don't you know its rude to ignor----
However, she stopped when Primis moved his lips as if saying something. Even though he didn't utter a single word, Beatrice still red his lips. As a result, her eyes opened wide in shock. Then ignoring her shocked expression, Primis turned and walked out of the library while closing the door behind him.
CLICK!!!
Next, Primis entered Subaru's room, put him on the bed before returning to his own room again.

An Hour Later.
Subaru: WOAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Primis, who was resting on his chair heard Subaru's shout and opened his eyes.
[Looks like the Protagonist wake up.]
Letting out a sigh, Primis got up again and left his room. As he was going towards Subaru's room, he saw Emilia walking there as well. When she saw Primis, a beautiful smile appeared on her face as she hurriedly approached him.
Emilia: Good morning, Rigla.
Looking at her enthusiasm, anyone can tell she was very happy to see him. Primis gave her a nod before speaking.
Primis: You too......…You seemed refreshed.
Emilia: Mn. I had a very good sleep last night. Because of that not only my physical and mental fatigue are gone, but my mana has also recovered completely.
Primis: Good to hear that. So, why are you here?
Emilia: Well, I came to check on you--- I mean both you and Subaru.
[Girl, you are bad at lying. Your words clearly indicated that you only came to check on Primis. You had completely forgotten about Subaru.]
Primis: I see. I also came to check on him after hearing his scream.
Then Primis turned and opened the door of Subaru's room.
CLICK!!!
Once they both went in, they saw how Ram and Rem were teasing Subaru who was spouting nonsense of having loli maids. Hearing the door opening, he turned to them and was surprised to see Primis and Emilia. Stopping whatever weird things he was saying, he greeted them.
Subaru: Yo, Rigla and Emilia-tan. It's great to see you both.
Emilia: Emilia-tan?
Subaru: It's just a nickname. Don't give it much thought.
Emilia: Oh, Ok.
At this moment, Ram and Rem approached them and spoke while pointing at Subaru.
Ram: This vile man was looking at me and my sister with perverted eyes.
Rem: Are you sure he is your companion, Sir Rigla? Compared to you, he is very loud and spoke like a pervert.
[Pfft. Hahahahahahahahahahahahah. It's funny to compare Primis with someone like Subaru. The difference between them is that of someone standing on the Highest High against some at Lowest low.]
Ram also nodded agreeing with her sister's words. Emilia became shocked as Subaru tried to deny it. Once everything settled down, Emilia spoke.
Emilia: In any case, I have come to take you both to the dining room for breakfast.
Primis: You three go first. I want to talk Subaru about something.
Emilia: But do you know where it is?
Primis: You're right, we don't. Ram, can you wait for us outside until our talk is done?
Ram: Um. Ok.
Primis: Alright, Ram will guide us there once we are done. Emilia and Rem go first.
Emilia opened her mouth, wanted to say something but seeing how Primis had moved his gaze away from her, she could only let out a disappointed sigh before leaving with Ram and Rem.
CLICK!!!
Once the door was closed, Subaru showed a confused expression and spoke.
Subaru: Why didn't we go with them?
Primis: Let's talk about our situation for now.
Subaru: Oh. You're right, Rigla.
Primis then explained to Subaru about the candidate elections and why Emilia wanted her insignia at all costs. Subaru became shocked hearing Emilia was one of the five candidates who will fight for the crown of Kingdom of Lungnica.
Primis: So, it's a golden opportunity for you. If you stay on the good side of her and serve her, then when she becomes the ruler of the country, you will be given title and riches to live the rest of your life comfortably.
Subaru: It sounds too good to be true.
Primis: Just like you said, its "sounds". Making Emilia a ruler is not going to be easy. There is other four candidates too. They might have more experience and resources than Emilia. So be ready, you must give your best too if you want Emilia to be the final winner.
Subaru: Of course, I will for my angel.
Primis: There's more. Even if Emilia does become the ruler, what makes you think it will be over. There will surely be many attempts of Assassination by those who don't like her. So be prepared.
Subaru became silent. He started to remember the terrible and bloody events that he went through in previous loops. He still shuddered remembering them and unconsciously touched his stomach. Taking a gulp, he spoke after gathering some courage.
Subaru: I-I am sure, we can do t-this. It's f-for Emilia-tan after all.
Primis: Good. Now let's go.
Subaru: By the way, I must say. Rigla, you don't appear to be 19 years old. You are more mature.
Primis: Maybe because I experienced a bit more than you.
[Yeah, right. A Bit.]
Primis ignored Twilight's sarcastic words as Subaru continued.
Subaru: No. No. No. There's must be more.
Primis: It serves no meaning.
Subaru: Since we are friends and going to survive in this world, we need to know about each other.
Primis didn't reply. He just turned and walked towards the door.
Subaru: Oi, Rigla----
However, Primis interrupted Subaru while glancing at him.
Primis: Change your clothes and come fast. Otherwise, don't blame me for eating your portion of breakfast too.
Subaru: ......…
Subaru also became silent. Then a shout resounded in the whole mansion.
Subaru: DON'T YOU DARE!!!!!!!!!!
