Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode One Thousand Five Hundred Sixty: The Thoughts of a Squid

Continental calendar July 3.

Arriving in the Dragon Mansion on the Zalwarn side of the Kingdom of Gandhia, Setuna proceeded to the ancient capital township illuminated by the summer light and entered the Heavenly Wheel Palace. He was greeted by the Dragon Palace Guard and was delighted to reunite with Faria and Miliu. Miliu, in particular, welcomes Setsuna throughout his body, which leads him to defuse Setsuna. It was also then that Gracia was thrilled to reunite for the first time in more than a dozen days.

Then it was when I was walking in the Heavenly Wheel Palace.

Saran-Kilclade came running up and talked to me.

"Dear Setuna,"

"What's going on?

"We don't see Ilda or the Stars and Bows."

"Don't you see? What's this all about?

"I have no idea what that is..."

Saran had a troubled face and it looked like he didn't understand at all. I can't even imagine what's happening to Setsuna.

Ilda means Ilda-Orion. She is a direct disciple of Saran, a famous bowman and a woman who was the leader of the Star Bow Corps. In the Star Bow Battle Regiment under Setuna, he was deputy leader and entrusted with the Star Bow Battle Regiment he had left behind at the Dragon House. He's as good as Saran can count on. I trusted Setsuna, too.

"I can't believe I betrayed you... hey?

As Esq glances sideways at Saran, Bow Saint shook his head and Sheila glances at him.

"No way. There's no way Ilda would do that. Not to mention I can't think of Ilda's men guiding her that way."

"... Dear Setuna. We need to talk about that."

And, it was Captain Lewie-Revien, the Dragon Palace Guard who was leading the Setuna and the others, who had spoken carefully. When he opens his mouth, a strange nervousness runs on Miliu, but it doesn't matter, Setsuna asked.

"What, you know what?

"Yes."

"What happened?

"That's..."

Lewie spoke deeply and quietly.

Lewie says it was three days ago that the Star Archers flew out of the Dragon House.

Three days ago, on June 30th, information jumped in to rock the Star Archers.

That was the reward of jumping in from the squid.

The Ishika government certified the family members of the Star Archers as sinners and imprisoned them in Hierna Grand Prison. The members of the Star Bow Regiment, who overheard the information, were unable to stay or not, and flew out of the Dragon House. Lewie's assumption that it will probably be to save the family imprisoned in the Grand Prison is correct.

"Imprisoning the family of the Star Archers? What the hell's the point of doing that?

Setsuna's questioning came after she moved the place to the Great Hall of the Temple of the Spiritual Palace of Tianhuan Palace Tae. I decided we should settle down and then discuss it.

"It doesn't make sense."

Saran narrowed his eyes and went. In a low voice so as to contain emotions that are likely to erupt quickly. At first glance, it looked like Saran was calm himself, but there was no way he didn't feel anything.

"It's just a show."

"Show me? For what?"

"As far as the squid is concerned, it must also be retaliation for what we did to Gandia. I betrayed my country. You deserve to be rewarded. I was ready... but I didn't expect even the families of the crew to be imprisoned"

"But it's all Ishika's fault that Grandpa got to belong to Gandia. Grandpa had to go to Gandhia because Ishika betrayed His Majesty and planned to assassinate His Majesty. If you don't get over here, Grandpa and Ilda will have to die."

As Sheila bit, Saran looked at her with merciful eyes, then smiled.

"Everyone deserves to die more than a failed assassination - that's what that country thinks."

"Are you even going to lose Bow Saints and Star Bow Soldiers?

"It means we were only worth so much. In that country."

"Value…"

"Yea, I have only been cast aside to be cast aside. The path that was left only to be used and discarded as a throwaway pawn for what was defeated and crippled by politics. Therefore I received an assassination mission from His Majesty Leongand. Success or death, failure or death. Death, even without undertaking. Just dying anyway. If..."

Saran looked at the distance. I don't want to imagine what's in his eyes. The imagination doesn't mean much either.

"Then it's also a pleasure to shoot a lion in the eye of a ship… That's what I thought, I had a fateful night"

Doreen and Sheila hit me.

"To you too. Lord Esq."

I didn't do anything.

I guess Esq turned that way in a hurry because he really thinks so.

"If that's what you mean, it's me. I just spoke to my grandfather."

"That drove Bow Saint crazy at hand. It's pointless. Then it wasn't."

The fact that Esq has taken care of Sheila doesn't seem pleasant to Setsuna. Sheila and Esq were against each other. If that repulsive emotion soothes you at all, I'm not so happy about it. Both are under Setuna's command. I don't want you to get along, but I didn't want you to remain hostile. It's just that it's about two personal emotions and Setuna couldn't pinch her mouth. So it just makes me happy to say that there is a chance that it will dissolve at all.

I don't know if I'd be happy in this situation, but I can't contain my emotions.

I whispered a small sigh as to whether Saran was watching such an exchange between the two.

"... then, if I had shot His Majesty, things would have changed"

"It would have changed, but you would have died, and so would all the star bowmen"

Setsuna told me because that's reality. Setsuna was not the only one on the spot, but there was all the fighting power but Setsuna. Esq, Sheila isn't the only one. There were also armed summoners from The Lion's Tail, Urk, Lem, and Lux. No matter how powerful the Star Bow Corps is and how powerful the Bow Saint himself is, there is no way he can be cut through. There was no doubt that it had been wiped out. There's no reason for Leongando to be killed and kept alive. However, it is also true that the defeat of the Gandia Liberation Army was decisive in that case. It would have been possible to continue the battle by defending Princess Leona and inheriting Leongando's will, but there is no doubt that the PLA's will has diminished. If we lose the absolute leader named Leongando, Gisellcourt's conspiracy is likely to have succeeded.

"Yep. So I'm glad I failed, I'm doing what I think"

"But as a result, you and everyone's family were imprisoned."

"That's something to be prepared for. But the Ildas have jumped out. Stupid thing."

"You got your family imprisoned. You can't keep your mouth shut."

"But we are no longer under Gandia's command, Master Setuna. You shouldn't have thought about the squid, and you cut off from your family, just like that."

Saran was going as if to tell himself. By telling you, are you trying to convince yourself and hold back rough emotions? Saran is a gentle man. Never get emotional under any circumstances. That's the bowman's rule, he says. Keeping your mind calm at all times is the only way to become a bow master. But he's also human. If my family were imprisoned, I wouldn't be able to help but feel anything.

With his hips down in the chair, he seemed, at first glance, to remain calm, but his emotions must have been rough in the depths of his mind.

Then Sheila opened her mouth and said something else.

"Hierna Grand Prison, that's it. for the death of felons and political prisoners in prison..."

"... you know very well"

"Neighborhood."

Sheila says as a matter of course. Black Beast squad executives stood behind her in an attitude that was also like Abard's common sense looked at each other.

"The facility that kills you in jail."

"In the history of the squid, we have not been imprisoned in the Great Prison and have not lived alone. The Grand Prison is a facility built just to legally kill sinners, so of course."

"Shouldn't we just execute him? Why did you go out of your way to jail?"

Saran smiled bitterly as Miliu spoke his doubts.

"In Ichika, the death penalty is forbidden"

"... that sort of thing"

The death penalty is forbidden, but it means it's possible to let him die in prison. It's a distortion, but I don't know. Not without.

"Does that mean the family that you've been imprisoned will die unless you help them"

"You can see the Ildas popped up."

"... I don't know"

To Faria's word, Saran shook his head.

"Saran......"

"We should not act to the detriment of Setuna or Gandia more than we have deposited a bow with Setuna. Even if it involves the lives of oneself and one's family. That means depositing the bow. That it will be an arrow. I've sporadically told the Ildas... it's not very interesting."

"... I'm not convinced."

Setuna told Saran quietly after he had heard his opinion. I can understand with my head. Emotions don't allow you to be convinced.

"I know what Saran wants, and I think you're right. That's the right thing to do. But if my family sees me like that, I can't bear to think that my people's family sees me like that. I know how the Ildas feel."

"Dear Setuna..."

He looked indoors as he felt his surrounding gaze gather on himself as well as Saran. The Great Hall brings together officials of the Setuna Army and the Phallians, the Lion's Tail. I don't have Gracia because when I mix it up in a place like this, I think she must want to stick her neck in and have her waiting in a separate room. Rem is dealing with Gracia. Gracia agreed to wait in the other room because she liked Rem and if she could deal with him.

Setsuna discovered that the person she was looking for was somehow eyeing the letter.

"Hey, Ain"

"Yes, yes, why?

Ayn-Rajar smiled without watermark as he turned his eyes to this one.

"You were listening, right?

"Yeah, sure."

"Any good ideas?

When Setuna asked Ayn, Saran embarked on himself.

"Dear Setuna, what..."

"The Star Archers are under my command. It's mine. You're letting me die on my own."

To Setuna's remarks, Saran stopped moving like he was frozen. Never mind, look back at Ein.

"Uh, I mean, is there any way to rescue your family from the Grand Prison so that Gandhia doesn't suffer?

"Oh."

"Stupid. I have something convenient to talk about..."

"I do. Just a convenient story."

When Ain had a compelling grin, Saran gave a look as if the heavens and the earth had trembled.
