Continuity is the Father of Magical Power

On the third day of the covert journey, today we finally cross the border and enter the Holy Land.

I only have four days left, so I have to hurry a little...

"Did you both get tired?

"Yes, it's okay."

"Is Master okay?I thought you worked yesterday. "

"I'm fine, too.Yesterday, I only worked around the city. "

I've been working for an hour or two.

Hey, don't worry about it.

"Really...."

Well then, let's transfer.Both of you, please be as vigilant as you can be. "

I'm sure it's all right, but we may be targeting the moment the assassins move in.

"Yes"

I checked and transferred the two men who stood ready to pull out the sword at any time.

Hmm. I guess I was too vigilant.

As expected, there are no assassins targeting us.

I unexpectedly took a breath into the blue sky spreading all around me.

"That's right. I don't think they're going to cross the border from these mountains."

"Well, I was pressed by Lena not to be alarmed, so let's be careful not to lose sight of it without needing it."

Down the mountain, the assassins will definitely be waiting somewhere.

A little carelessness could be fatal.

"Okay."

"Alright, today, the city at the foot of the mountain is the target.Let's go! "

In the meantime, we need to get into a Christian country by today.

Side: coup

It was worth waiting for.

As I watched Leon and the others start going down the mountain, I accidentally said so.

I'm glad I didn't waste a day yesterday.

I see. And you're glad you didn't have to aim for the perfect opportunity?If I were you, I'd be able to take the heads of three people in that instant.

"That's what Ku-sama explained...."

"I know you want to be alarmed... but do you think there's another chance like that?

"That's...."

That makes sense.

Jill is right.

The more distance you move from here on, the wider the range that Leon and the others can transfer.

Perhaps this is the first and last time we can wait.

"Oh, right?After all, I thought Master Ku knew. "

Well then, let's do it now.

"Huh? Now?

Side: leon's

"It's easier downhill."

"Yes, at this pace, we should be able to reach our target by noon."

I see. Then today, the city ahead is the target. "

Because you don't know what's coming, it's best to keep going on such an easy day.

Maybe there won't be a day when we have to fight assassins.

Roger that.

"I wish I could get to the Holy City at this rate... hmm?

When I stopped feeling like the ground was shaking, the sound of the ground was getting stronger and stronger.

And looking back... I saw a big rock falling towards us.

It's a rock! Stan!Wall! "

"Ha, yes!

Stan hurried to stick the wall with earth magic, and we hurried to hide there.

And the sound of the rock crashing against the wall without putting it in between echoed across the wall.

"It was close... if it hit me like that, I'd be stuck."

That said, the rock struck the wall again.

"It's a massive rockfall.If there's one big one, I know, but when it gets so much.... "

Is someone deliberately causing a rockfall?

"What do you think?I'll look at the top of the mountain with magic eyes. "

When I concentrated my magic on my eyes and looked at the top of the mountain... I saw the shadow of five people.

One of the wizards made a rock and a man threw it down.

The other three... looked at it.

"There he is. Five."

"I knew it... what would you do?Shall I go?

"No, you shouldn't be rude without knowing the other person's information.Even so, it will take time to get back to the top while avoiding this rockfall. "

I don't think I'm just watching the other three climb up.

If you were attacked unexpectedly, you wouldn't be able to handle it while avoiding the rocks...

"In that case, in the metastasis...."

"I think that's a bad idea."

Metastasis has a large gap.

"But even if I leave them alone...."

"I see... will you just transfer me and defeat me?"

There is a large gap when multiple people metastasize, but there is no problem when one person metastasizes.

Even Lou's opponent had a successful diversion.Probably all right.

"That's no good.Why do assassins fight assassins themselves?Even if we fight, it's just us. "

"Herman is right.You can't do that. Even so, magic is limited. "

"Yes, but...."

I thought it was a good idea, but we didn't get permission.

Now, what do we do...?

Side: coup

"Now, what do we do from here?He's the best man in the Empire. "

It was a sudden start, but it was better than I thought.

There are three ways to get Leon's in that situation.

The three of us climb the mountain, the three of us transfer, or Leon alone.

My prediction is that it's most likely to metastasize by itself.

"If Leon comes in alone, can I fight?

"No. I'll take care of Leon.You're Herman. The rest is Stan. "

Leon's not a good match for a weak-minded man.It will be easily done with a tangled hand.

"Eh...."

"Don't lick Hellman.Leon's right arm.If Leon's in what the Pope says, he's more amazing than Leon's. "

Hellman with both skills is quite amazing.

There is a great chance that Jill will lose.

"Really!?Then I'm motivated!

"Karo, Stan is troublesome enough.Don't be alarmed because it's two against one.

"Of course."

Well, we'll be fine.

I'm not that worried.

"If I lose to a man killed instantly by a brave man, it would be a shame on the Pope's hands."

"Shut up. I won't let anyone down."

"Hmm. If I had, I might have knocked him down."

"Apparently, that won't come true."

"What? Why?

"Even if you have the power to defeat the brave, you won't fight under unfavourable circumstances...After all, Leon seems to be more careful than I thought. "

That powerful magic vanished...

There's a possibility of secrecy, but it's definitely a metastasis from that way of disappearing.

Leon's gone.

"Don't get bored...."

"Well, we're moving too.I don't need you here anymore. "

Will there ever be more opportunities than today?

I can't help it. Let's go back to the Holy City and listen to the prophecy.

Side: leon's

"Why did you miss it?If we were, we wouldn't have five of us, would we?Wouldn't it be better to kill him if we thought about the future?

"Well, if it was just an assassin, I would have done the same....."

"Aren't you just an assassin?

"Oh, there was one, the Beast tribe."

The man who was throwing that rock, the Beast tribe.

Besides, it was veterinized.

What do you mean by that? Isn't that something that can only be used for royalty?

Belle should be the only royal family...

Huh?

"Maybe no one else is.If they succeed, there may be demons. "

"Demons in the Holy Land...?

It is written in the Gulmu scripture that it is not related to the demon race, which is a species of demons.

That's why the Holy Nation has a history of overreacting when it comes to demons... but apparently not these days.

Speaking of which, when I saw Lou, he didn't say anything.

"It's a country that kills each other all the time, right?It is no wonder the Pope himself broke the teachings to gain power. "

Maybe religion is just a political tool.

Well, I don't know who the nobleman who hired that Beast tribe is this time, but I'm sure it's the upper echelons.

"Yes, but...."

"Well, that's what you should think.We have to assume that everything is the worst. "

"That's right...So, after all, it's from board rail territory? "

Yes. Now we're in board rail territory.

It's the result of giving up that we can't cross the mountain.It would still have been safer to be attacked in the city.

"That's right. Hurry up.Assassins should be tough now. "

In the meantime, we need to keep moving as fast as we can before those mighty enemies catch up.
