In the quiet darkness, he was killing his breath.

Put a thin blanket over the bedding and hold both knees. Round your back and shrink yourselves indefinitely.

It's a cheap lodging where anyone can stay for a fortune. Just a little stroll around, and the old beds lift up. The sound made me feel like "someone" understood where I was, and I stayed as still as I could.

…………

The root of the tooth does not mesh. Your hands, feet, and body tremble little by little.

The cold was not the only cause.

How did this happen? How long should I keep doing this? It won't last long. No, I can't go on.

"...... nh..."

I have a small bag right at hand. There are millions of esques in this. No matter what you do...

In the narrow room, only the sounds of my breath that leaked irregularly were the wooden spirit.

(It's okay, it's okay. If this is the case.....)

I stay under a pseudonym. Nobody would have thought you were hiding here...

Even though she understood that she was only telling herself, she kept on remembering. All I could do was do it.

--It's as if you laugh at such thoughts and the current situation.

Gonna knock on the door of the room from outside.

Sorry.

She managed to suppress the scream, which was about to leak in surprise, and the woman stared at the entrance door.

"It's Elsa Meller's room, right? Are you there?

What I heard from the other side of the door was a young man's voice.

"......!

A thin, unreliable wooden door. The lighting in the hallway slightly plugs in from the gap. And the shadow of someone who blocks it.

I didn't ask for any food or care.

"Elsa Merler, huh?

They called me by my name again, and I was happy there. The woman - Elsa bites to death the scream that was about to pop out again.

(Wait a minute....! Why am I staying under a pseudonym?)

Immediately after being frozen in fear, the answer was revealed.

"Uh, my name is Hefner Aguston, and I'm a regular Badalnois soldier. I'd like to ask Elsa a few questions."

There is light in my heart.

Soldiers. Soldiers of the Royal Palace, help us.

I almost stood up and my legs stopped.

I told the soldiers everything, and then what happened to me? "That's what happened." Aren't you guilty? Why are you here in the first place? Aren't you here to catch yourself? Before that, do you have any assurances that this opponent is really a soldier?

His associates have located him.

Isn't it natural to think that way?

"......!

Fear almost drowned my throat.

Elsa rolled down from the bedside and ran towards the back of the room, opposite the door, without one or two.

The windows were stretched with ice and heavier, forcing them to open and gaze outside.

In an alley isolated from the streets where no one is seen.

This is the first floor. Escape is easy.

"Ah, I heard something! Elsa, you're here!? All right, I'm coming in. Ah, the keys!

While a man named Hefner was at it, he crossed the window frame and stepped down to the cobblestone.

"Ugh, uhh"

Oh, my God. I left my luggage. At least there were an important million esquests in that bag. This is what happened to me to get that.

But it's not like I can say that. The purpose of the opponent is not money or goods.

--Because it's life.

I know in the face of a crisis. That money is important. I really wanted it. However, there is nothing more precious than your own life.

Run.

"..., hah, hah...!

Cold air blowing through the dark alley.

Running through the dirty walls of the building, kicking down a rubbish bin left unconventional. Your knees are trembling, your feet are cramped, and you can't move forward as you think.

"K, ka... hah... heh!

Is it because of the cold, or because of fear? Elsa could no longer judge.

(Why... why me!

Why should I encounter such a thing?

(Oh, God of Ice, Cuarlene! Please have mercy...!

Shortly afterwards, the thought of whether the wish has been fulfilled is dyed in blank. A woman appeared in the alley.

"...,...!?

And then I realized that I was desperate.

Waving golden long hair. It's obviously not passing through, it's blocking our way.

It's not a goddess. I know the face.

Why is this woman here? Why are you here?

The opponent opens his mouth as the doubt returns.

"Hi, Elsa Meller. It's been a few days. Do you remember me?

Without much shaking, Elsa unconsciously shook her head sideways. Did you take it as a denial?

"Oh, I can't get through. Then you know Sabel Arhano, don't you? Because you're the one who tried to trap and kill me. Isn't it? I won't let you say you don't know. As soon as I answer... I'll kill you."

The woman, Julie Michaels, seeped in anger with an incredible smile.
