A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 278: Ruvillia Part 5

"But what about this situation....."

It was Collard who murmured in a state of deep distress.

We have captured the Gregorians who attacked, but the damage is not zero.

Ruvillia, the subject of the escort, is intact because of Reurus' cover, but instead Reurus is seriously injured in his left arm.

Anemone, who was initially unwell, also felt worse after fighting in the rain. Because I got wet in the rain and my body temperature dropped, I'm pulling into the carriage in a more spicy atmosphere than before I took a rest.

Regarding wet clothing and body, Neddy manipulated the water and removed the moisture to improve it. However, there is no change to the fact that once wet by cold rain, it is doubtful that my condition will recover even if I sleep overnight.

Now Eliza is sleeping in an attempt to warm up her cold body a little, but if she succeeds, it looks like she will drag her away for a few days.

"I've been attacking you from over there, and it's better to kill you than to rot.

Reurus took off his armor and, like Anemone, had his body and clothes wet by Neddy remove the moisture, as a matter of course.

Meer sat next to such a revulsion, holding the left arm of the revulsion and checking the wound. There is little bleeding because the bleeding has been stopped, but the wound is large and the fingers are likely to enter.

"If you can do that, you won't have to struggle... hah..."

Collard sighs at Reurus' extreme suggestions. There should be no discomfort because Neddy is removing the moisture from the garment, but the right hand was gently attached to the stomach.

"Wow... Reurus, doesn't it hurt? I can even see the bones...."

"Hahaha, to be honest, it hurts so much. I feel like I'm going to fall out of my mind."

That's a laughing revulsion, but it's just strong and genuine. That's right, when removing metal fragments, I use "Caloric Release", but while I was preparing, I cut it to reduce the depletion of magic.

As a result, there is always severe pain, and a piece of metal buried in the wound complains of discomfort.

…………

It was Ruvillia who stared silently at such a realuse. Sarah and Neddy are sitting next to each other as escorts, but they can't afford to worry about it, staring at Reurus' left arm.

Reurus was laughing, and he was trying not to worry about Ruvillia. As a realuse, I just wish you could sleep in a carriage and take care of Anemone.

"It's kind of hard to see just a fire... Sara-chan? Does that sound good?"

"Ah, yeah, I'm fine. It's a little tight."

Sarah creates a small fireball in the air while shaking her head to the left and right. It was meant to illuminate the wounds of the Reus, and Meer looked at the Reus as she gazed.

"Then I'll get rid of the debris... are you sure you want me? You should leave it to Mr. Collard...."

I'm a little anxious to ask Meer, but Reurus smiles at such a Meer.

"Mr. Collard has to keep an eye on the people he captured, and I think Meer is the best fit... so even if Mr. Collard's hands are free, I'll ask Meer. I'm sorry it got dirty with my blood."

"Uh-huh. Don't worry about that! Well, then, let's do it.

Meer removes two thin nails from the tools she usually carries. Because there are no tweezers, I use nails like chopsticks to pick up debris.

Washed with water produced by Neddy and burned on fire, it should also be somewhat disinfected. Reurus nodded toward Meer when he saw that the pain had diminished using "Calorie Release".

After seeing it, Meer starts to take out the fragments silently. Reurus doesn't complain of pain, so I feel comfortable, but I try to finish it as quickly as possible, and yet I carefully remove the debris.

Then, after removing the debris in less than three minutes, Meer had Neddy wash the wound on Reurus before confirming it again.

"... yeah. I should have removed as much debris as I can see...."

"Okay... thank you, Meer. The rest will be cured by applying the magic medicine you received, wrapping it around your bandage and resting overnight."

Though the pain was faint, Reurus sighed loudly as he watched his wound get nailed. After thanking Meer for removing the debris quickly, Meer smiles as if she were laughing.

However, realizing that there was blood splashed from the wound on Meer's cheek, Reurus reached out his right hand.

"Oh, I'm sorry. It has my blood on it."

"Wow...."

Regardless of Meer's panic, Reurus wiped the blood with his fingers. Meea's soft cheeks sink into the shape of Reurus' fingers, but there is no trace of blood because I wiped them immediately.

Reurus looked at it with satisfaction, but he could hear Collard sighing and turned to you.

"No matter how much magic medicine I use, it's obviously not a wound that will heal overnight... but if you're more surprised about me than my stomach..."

"I'm always bothering you."

Collard was also on the "involved side” on this trip, but while complaining, he did his job well. As a result, Reurus lowered his head with gratitude, but Collard's gaze was directed at the Gregorians, not Reurus.

If we make any suspicious moves, we're on alert to suppress them immediately.

However, the Gregorians took all their weapons after checking their bodies and tied them up with their hands behind their backs. Still, it would be difficult to escape because they tied their legs and tied their ropes together.

He tied his thumbs to each other so that the rope could not be unwound, making it difficult to move one by one and sitting them on the wet ground. As a pity at least, I put a rainproof cloth over my head, but I don't think it will be that effective.

"By the way, are those monkeys... uh, you sure you don't want to bite their tongues and not self-determination?

"As soon as you bite your tongue, you will know. Besides, just because you bite your tongue off doesn't mean you die instantly. It takes time to suffocate, so I can help you as much as I want... well, I don't want you to imitate it because it's troublesome for me to get wet again."

With that in mind, Collard turned his gaze towards a man with a jirori and a rugged gaze. The man Reurus was at war with and thought he was in charge of a group of enemies.

"Oh, are you done talking about that? Then I'd like you to listen to me."

Even though he was tied up in such a way that he couldn't take a single move, the man threw such a word in a slender manner.

Six men apart, Korald and Anemone, who brought them to Stun, are still awake, but the men do not seem impatient. Or perhaps you are in a hurry, but are you keeping it out of the public eye?

"Talk?

"Ah, there's a lot to be concerned about, isn't there? I wonder why we attacked you..."

That's what men say and meditate in one eye. Reurus and Collard frowned at the man's story, but they certainly wanted information. I wondered what was going on, but Sarah moved before Reurus and Collard moved.

Sarah flickers her right hand as if she threw a sharp gaze at the man. Then, the next moment, a flame pillar appeared in front of the man sitting down.

Firepower enough to instantly evaporate touched grains of rain without turning rainfall into objects. Still, because of intimidation, the man is not burned at all.

"Ugh... if you want to sing something, hurry up.” I'll burn it next time.

Sarah was in an unprecedented mood. Compared to normal Sarah, it is slaughtered, and even Reurus, who thought that there would be no decomposition if killed, will calm down unexpectedly.

"... Sarah?

"... nothing"

When Reurus called out her name, Sarah swelled her cheeks and turned away. Not only Reurus, but also Neddy is peeking into Sarah with a suspicious look.

"It's nice to be warm in the rain... it's a joke."

The Gregorian man laughed without changing his complexion, even though there was a fire pillar in front of him. Reurus is only a little impressed by the man's reaction, but she decides that Sarah can't really burn it and calls out.

"So, what are you talking about?

"Oh, will you listen to me? But before I do, let me check one thing."

I thought you were in a position to say such a thing, but I silently encourage you to continue.

"Boy... no, did you say Reurus? I want you to stay away from me, but do you remember the name Rebecca?

The man's name changed Reurus' expression. It was clear from everyone's eyes that hate distorted his expression.

"Looks like it's there... oh shit, it's good to stop, but it's so close to the worst..."

The man shakes his head when he sees Reurus's reaction and is convinced. There was a color on his face that was close to the fear that had come to mind during the earlier battle.

"... you know that woman?

"I know you or my men... this is a priest and this is a bishop. I have to follow orders... that kind of relationship."

Apparently, the man is a priest in Gregory. Is it Rebecca's direct reports, or is it something like a relationship between Canna and Laurent?

"For the record, I'm Keith the Priest. Those men in the back are my men, two priests, and the rest are believers. As your old man predicted, there is no other power lying down."

Man - Keith suddenly starts talking about their power.

Reurus and the others looked suspicious, but Keith continued his words.

"My goal is your daughter. If you give it to me, it'll be the easiest thing to do, but you're not going to do that, are you?

"I don't think so. I mean, your mouth has gotten a lot lighter. What are you up to?

Reurus stood up alert and gripped the Dragon Slasher with his right hand alone. I'm alert to the presence of new recruits while Keith is drawing attention.

"What are you up to in this situation? I don't want to die in vain. I'm just doing this."

"... I'd like to know why you don't think you're going to die in this situation."

When Collard asks, Keith lifts the edge of his mouth.

I know some things about you, but what are you gonna do when you kill us here? This rain won't make you realize, but the soldiers in this country are watching, right? If you're a murderer on the street, isn't that a bad idea?

"... hmm"

Hearing Keith's words, Collard stuck his gavel. But Reurus shook his neck sideways.

"Kill him and leave him in the woods, and the monster will take care of him." You can cremate or bury if you want. "

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa..."

If you cover it up, that's the solution. It was a Reurus who said such an idea, but Keith didn't seem to be afraid of the words he vomited.

"Shit... is that what this is about?"

Collard, who was watching Keith's reaction, whispered that something had crossed his mind. Reurus frowned at Collard's reaction.

"Mr. Collard?

"There's probably a mix of Gregorians in the tail. Even if we“ handle ”them well, they'll complain."

Unlike Mataroi, spiritualism is not the only religion practised in Rapali. Gregorianism was also quite pervasive and Collard saw that he didn't know where his allies were.

"But I can't solve it. It seems like it would be a good idea to give up a lot, with all the favorable conditions in place?

There is no excuse for seeing the power of the Reurus and the others wrong, but the reaction since they were caught is too grown up. As Collard pointed out, Keith laughed ironically.

I told you I didn't want to die in vain. I wanted to kill your daughter, but not to mention the bishop's favorite. If I'm going to die, I want to die as a human being. "

If someone who doesn't know anything asks, they'll wonder what they're talking about. But I can't even laugh at Rebecca from Reurus who knows her abilities.

"We Gregorians are strong... but that bishop is different. I don't know what to do.“ Bishop's orders. "If it's a good job to fail, I'll choose the former."

"... just so you know, who among your men is being manipulated by that woman? And what about orders?

"I don't think so. I'm the only one who's ever met Rebecca. Besides, you can predict anything about orders, right?

Keith answered Reurus' words with his cheeks pulled.

(It's about that woman... who gave me orders that weren't Roku.)

It seems strange to order someone other than yourself to kill them.

"So... I want to negotiate."

Keith says something like that when Reurus remembers Rebecca's face and smashes a bitter bug.

"This time, let me draw your attention. If you let me escape, I'll make sure you didn't notice, and I won't aim anymore. So, what do you say?

Reurus and the others looked at Keith's offer.
