A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Reus, who had listened to Sofia's story and looked up at the ceiling, had been thinking about it for a while, but eventually turned his gaze back to Sofia and asked indifferently.

"I've been listening to you so far and I thought... there's no advantage in accepting my request, right?

I heard that the Gregorians are leaping forward, but I have to judge from Reurus that we know Vanille's personality that we cannot succeed. In the first place, I didn't think I could kill Vanier, no matter how prepared I was, but it seemed like I was about to kill myself.

With regard to the Viscount Doria and Serras, I was troubled to hear that the court nobles were pulling the thread behind them. I am vigilant as to who led Seras and how he fitted it, but if he was so good at “off the board", he would not have left any evidence.

There is a need to explain the situation to Louis and his brother-in-law, but Reurus' mood is only getting stronger as he refuses the request and wants to go home.

(There's no reward for killing each other where there's more than one bishop... Vernier has a stepsister, well, I'm not saying there's nothing like friendship...)

If Reurus had known "quarreling friends”, he would have crushed every trap the Gregorians had set up.

(I mean, that Serrus girl went mad... and she must have helped me get to the west. It's better if I go, because if I don't go, the Viscount Doria will be shredded, and if I combine both, it'll be even better...)

I don't know when I've been making such preparations, but Reurus wonders if one or two of the court nobles are better at scratching Natalia and Louis' eyes.

I don't have territory or force, but I think it's a first-rate plan.

Sofia smiles bitterly as she sees through such a revulsion.

"I don't suppose there's a reason why we don't have the advantage... we're dealing with extremists. It's not a priest or an auxiliary, it's the upper echelons of the extremists... the bishop. I think that's enough to fight for you?

With that, Sofia turned her gaze towards Eliza. Then you pull in the bitter smile that had been on your face until now and turn it into a serious face.

"I killed the family of the bloodsucking daughter there. If that's who you ordered it from... what do you think?

――――

The moment I heard “that," Eliza was killed by Reurus before she erupted. Sofia kept her expression, but she trembled slightly, in a deep, killing mood that seemed to have pushed her enemies forward.

"I see... I see... I see... I see... you know me very well"

That said, Reurus laughs with his canine teeth peeled out. Hostility and killing were released like a beast before the prey, and the "Dragon Slash", which was standing up as if in response to the indication, bounced and fell to the right hand of Reurus.

"I'm scared that the information the spy bought was true... It's no less lethal than Gilba... yes, I've received reports, but I think it's a big deal. When confronted directly, it's extra....."

Sophia murmured like she was amazed. But now I feel like I've seen a strange phenomenon, and I turn my gaze to the right hand of Reurus.

"Wait a minute? You didn't move that sword on your own right now? It's working, isn't it? You flew around, didn't you?

"The sword speaks. Sometimes you move on your own... hahaha... I see, I see. I withheld it because there was a bishop who could talk, but I did. Well, that's the perfect reason to move me, Mr. Sofia."

Reurus grips the handle of "Dragon Slasher" strong enough to make the bones ring.

Seven troublesome schemes, royal nobility's temptations, and Gregorian thoughts disappear from Reurus's mind.

"Eh...."

But I heard a breathtaking voice from Corona, and Reurus turned to you. Until now, Corona was holding onto the basin and staring at Reurus, but her eyes were shaking with fear.

"... Phew... sorry, Corona. I almost forgot myself in anger."

Reurus apologized for scaring Corona. And even though I tried to scratch my head with my right hand to show its bad nature, I “noticed” that I was holding the "Dragon Slash" and raised my eyebrows.

Although it was pointed out by Sofia, I lost my anger, but it was unusual that there was a "dragon slash" in my hand that I didn't remember gripping myself.

It's okay, right?

"... no, I didn't call you, yeah"

"... that's right."

"Dragon Slasher" talked to me, so when I answered, I heard a voice that seemed dissatisfied. Would it have been a manifestation of intent to let anger kill Sofia, or would it have been possible to use yourself if anger had left it to shake?

Reurus, who suppressed his anger by the “action” of the "Dragon Slasher", decided that there was something to prioritize now and turned his attention to Eliza.

"... Eliza"

When Reurus called out her name, Eliza pulled her lips and stared back at Reurus' eyes. And when you try to open your mouth without saying anything, you close it, you open it, and you open your mouth worried for tens of seconds.

"I... yeah, I hate Gregorians who killed my younger brother or sister when I was supposed to be born... but I don't want Reus or Sarah to be in danger for that..."

Eliza says she prefers the safety of the Reuses to her own vengeance.

(If Eliza wants to be safer than revenge... is it wild for me to say anything?

Gregorians - If there are more than one bishop, there is no guarantee that you can win with all your might. Reus decides whether one person can be dealt with with with with with the same skill as Kanna, who crossed the angle with Gilba, and another with the same strength as Chris and Tina.

If Eliza and the others join in as backup, how can we take down up to three of them? If the magic depletion is also fought externally, there is a possibility that up to three people can do something even if they have the same skill as Kanna.

(There is Rebecca since I sent her a letter. Chris is more likely to be here... but they're both righteous. What about the extremists? There must be more than two, there must be more than three...)

Eliza and the others are stronger than before, and Reus has a new Dragon Slash and Armor. But what if there were five or more bishops?

(... thinking so, Slaus was really strong. No, but depending on how you fight, you can have five or more people...?

With Eliza's help through the "contract," there may be a chance to fight while regenerating your body - perhaps.

While Eliza didn't want to fight the bishop, Reurus thought that someone who had been silent until then shouted.

"Lord Wind Dust, Tina has one favor to ask."

It was Tina who was reading a letter from Sofia. Natalia frowned at what Tina said.

"What is it?

"... I want you to stop Tina when he's about to kill me."

And Tina says that while watching Reurus. The colour of the eyes was not frightening, but the complicated conflicts were shaking enough to glimpse.

"'Monster eater'... yeah, Reurus. Tina will give you information."

"Information?"

Reurus asked in suspicion and Tina turned her gaze to the floor.

"Yeah... that bloodsucking species... no, I don't recommend going back for Eliza. The extremists' main objective is the Fire Dragon, but you and Eliza are on it. Besides, both spirits... so even if you leave here, you'll be targeted."

"Hmm... really?

Reflexively, the body was about to move, but Reurus put his strength to the body to stop it. And when she asked Tina, Tina nodded small.

"Really... Especially Reurus, the extremists think that killing you will weaken the gods because you have slain them. Because the extremists don't choose the means, Tina thinks it would be better for you to hit them while you're seeing the movement."

"... even if you say extremists, if you look in brackets at the Gregorian religion to which Tina belongs, you're one of them, right? Do you think you can trust that information?

I didn't expect Tina to trick me into revulsing, but there is Sofia, who organizes the cathedral. Throwing suspicious words to avoid trouble later, Tina knocked down the fox's ear without strength and drooped her tail.

"I don't think so... but believe me."

Reurus raised his eyebrows small, telling Tina to believe him without showing any reason or reason.

(Should we prepare ourselves for a retreat and not know when to attack, or should we set it up... and invite Vanille to fight with us? No, I don't know if I have enough time to start from here, and I think I refuse to get involved in “that kind of thing”.)

While thinking about it, Reurus asked Tina.

"If you believe me... why did you tell me that?

When Reurus asks, Tina sends the letter she was holding to Reurus. I suppose you don't mind if I read it.

The contents of the letter are simple and indicate that Tina will be asked to join Rebecca and the others. We don't have the sender's name, but we need you to lure the Reurus out.

After confirming the contents, Reus turned his gaze to Tina, but Tina kept her gaze on the floor.

"The subhuman... not only Eliza, but a lot of dwarves lived with humans and made it fun... not only for Tina, but also for Chris..."

Tina shook her head and raised her face. And when I stared straight at Reurus, I smiled small.

"Good stuff"... I had a dream. Thank you for that. "

Tina shows a grown-up smile that doesn't look right. However, as long as it looks, it will still be a child. Still, Reurus sighs to Tina, who swallows some thoughts and speaks.

"I see... then I'll take it."

"Yeah, take it."

While looking at Tina smiling like that, Reurus can think.

(If Tina returns... more than six bishops, huh? Not necessarily without any Gregorians other than the bishop... not enough power.)

I heard that there are several bishops moving, but not necessarily priests or priests acting together. A lineup of priests and auxiliaries would only get in the way if they were against the Vanilles, but some of them were hands-on like Laurent.

(Even though I know you're still being targeted, you can't even move... combat power, right?)

Reurus can stand the sight of Natalia. I know that you will definitely nod, but if Natalia dies, the “future” of Baron Amondola and the abandoned city of Laval will be crushed.

When fighting Slaus in the town of Lemona, there was a risk of damage to Baron Amondola's territory. However, in this case, if Reurus and the others leave, it will have little impact on the Baron of Amendura and the abandoned city of Laval.

Reurus thinks so - Sophia opens her mouth like she sees the conflict between Reurus.

"I have a guess about your strength. Well, guess what, if the Gregorians were against them, they'd jump in on their own."

"... Mr. Gilba?"

"Yes, you were working to build a church in the town of Speranza, right? But it looks like he changed his movements on the way... it looks like he's on his way here to see what he's sniffing."

"... well, it's Jilba."

I thought it would be helpful if Zilba would come to us, who would be able to rely on us to fight and not betray us if we were wrong. Rather, if left alone, Gilba could target the Gregorians without the Reurus. No one was so comfortable as to fight together.

"If you're being targeted, you'll have to accept this request..."

Reurus muttered and began discussing what kind of “reward” to draw.
