Beyond the window is a horizontal line of blue.

The spectacular view from this fort at the westernmost elevation was always heart-shaking.

...... a high-pitched voice that ruins such emotions resounds from behind.

"What!? Why! Why, Svorun-sama!?"

"Why not? I'm not that vessel."

Quietly looking back. Svorun sighed without hiding in front of his disgustingly werewilful subordinate, Gebi.

"Oh, no... let me just say this!" I can only stand with my current Badar Noisy on my shoulders...! "

"Gebi, don't make me say it again and again." I am not going to take the lead. I don't deserve that. "

"Except for you, who's going to play the big role...!"

"Do you think I deserve to lead?"

You're right!

"Don't you realize what you're saying?" It was the same thought as the monks who made mistakes. A puppet who believes in the Lord and keeps his head upright. In that case, you will be stepping on the same trampoline. Cool your head a little. "

"......... ah, but..."

"I won't tell you again."

When he refused, Gebi dropped his shoulder and said, "Excuse me." He left the room.

Svorun, who sighed unaware of how many times, decided to head downstairs, closing the window with a spectacular sea view.

Thinking of it, Ohmzorf was an incredibly intelligent person.

It was in this case that that power was demonstrated in an evil way.

I correctly predicted how the innocent Lenore would behave.

In fact, Svorun struck the action she had contemplated.

With the wrong sister - no, that's why we have to deal with it with determination. It is unacceptable to lack fairness just because you are a part of it.

Therefore, he took the initiative to arrest Lenore.

I was being read about that nature.

…………

But now, Svorun didn't have any more feelings of resentment towards Ohmzolf.

If you hadn't noticed, you would have been a fool to use yourself.

Numerous documents were discovered, including a renovation of Omsolv's private room for post-processing.

They contained various intel about Badarnois that she presumably had independently investigated.

Sales trends of specialty products by region, correlation between snowfall and traffic, statistics on the proportion of immigrant population and turnover rate…….

She seemed like a real person, with a number of well-organized records.

If I looked at it, I could understand even if I didn't like it.

I wonder how much trouble this country is in.

And it is clear that we are on the path of destruction.

"I heard you so far." As usual, Lord Gebi. "

General Bendism, sitting face to face, snorts his nose.

The place is on the first floor of the fort. It hits directly underneath the other room.

In that old cramped room in the corner, Svorun was facing the old soldiers who had fought at his desk.

"There's nothing more troublesome than a blind believer." For he believeth in his righteousness, and pushes forth majestically, without shame. You can't admit mistakes, you can't see things objectively. ”

When Svorun abandoned it,

Oops, as soon as my ears hurt

This time, the general who agreed with Ohmsolf and followed him, deliberately held his ears down.

"If you think your ears hurt, it's still gone." Even the paralyzed call him a fanatic. "

Without concealing his billions, Svorun unleashes a bunch of knitted paper in front of the general.

"... what is this?"

"This is a summary of the training content. Keep your eyes peeled."

"Are you a trainee? I don't mean to kill us."

“Do you think you can? If the general had been involved in this matter because he knew that there was no future in our country, he would have understood the situation better than anyone else. Rather, I suspected that I had taken part in it knowingly. As a way of behaving if you fail. You're an intelligent, battle-sensitive soldier, after all."

"I'm buying it. I'm not so smart-headed."...... really brilliant... the man with the wisdom to overturn everything was unfortunately led to the Ice God's death. "

“You were buying her.”

"It seems that it didn't agree with you." However, it was highly regarded by the people. "

"It's not fair that I didn't see you. Mindset. She had a section where she tried to deviate from the plan. In contrast, I only said it prematurely."

“That would be true. The scenery that I had to peak and look down on... the situation in my country is no longer a tragedy that I can't even see. If I knew that I was standing on a cliff without respite and that my foothold was about to collapse, I knew everyone would leave immediately.”

"... I guess I was a fanatic after all."

Leaning against the back of the chair, Svorun looked emotionlessly at the pattern of the stone ceiling.

It was underlying.

There is no way that the survival of the nation could be jeopardized. I don't think it's serious enough to have to change my response.

Even though I once experienced the darkness of "ice hunting" and civil war.

Rather, it is because we have overcome such trials that we have no basis for believing that a bright future is promised from now on.

And then she couldn't talk to anyone.

"The people should have felt it before they knew it." Never-ending wages, never-buried immigration grooves... life just gets harder and harder every day. Therefore, the Opinion Presentation Committee was appreciated by everyone as a valuable place where such grievances could be directly prosecuted. It seems that you were against it.

Yes, assuming that the head of a nation is in direct contact with the people, Svorun disagrees.

Why did he accept the strong request and accept that he should be accompanied by an escort, including himself? "As a result..."

"I couldn't possibly say what I wanted to say in front of Lord Svorun." You were alone, weren't you? Whoever complains? "

The general shook his head to the side, knowing that he didn't have to look.

In retrospect, everyone had the same expression on their faces.

Tense face, revealing bitterness.

It was clear to me that I had something to say. However, he did not pursue it.

I was not keen on the ceremony. There is no doubt that his attitude, which he did not conceal, was causing the people to shrivel up.

"In front of me, the people told me the truth without covering up." As I listened to the stories of several people, I began to think that it would not go on like this. "

The veteran general, who had been reminded of the current situation, decided to join in on the matter.

"... that's right. I also understood it by getting stained." My country is certainly on the path of destruction. "

I have to admit it.

Gebi and the others still shouted, "It's impossible to be ridiculous," but fanaticism should probably be done as well. It may not be an in-law who can speak of people, but now we must admit our mistakes and change direction.

"Therefore, I need your help." You must return as a soldier as soon as possible. "

"Hmm, I didn't expect you to say such a word from that strict Svorun."... but we had our cause together. If I say no, what are you going to do? "

I don't think so.

Svorun broke briefly.

The Bendisme slightly rounded her eyes.

"If you don't return as a soldier, you will abandon Badarnois, who you know will be crushed." Thou shalt not do that which thou hast done, when thou hast mourned the land.

The general shook his head weakly,

"I don't know." You may think it's better to perish sooner or later. ”

Once upon a time, Svorun would have made a statement he could never have overlooked. But now I was able to respond with a smile.

“If Badarnois dies, we will both be destined for fate. But because of the Curelene teachings that forbid suicide, you know you're going to die, and you can't overlook what's happening."

Oops.

The general nodded his head as he said, "You've been stolen."

"... if you think about it, our Ice God is cruel." It's better to die... even in these dilemmas, you can't forgive me for dying. "

"Absolutely. Even if you are about to be crushed by its weight while bearing its mistakes... you say you can't live." "I won't allow you to escape."

With a strange look on his face, General Bendithm took the materials.

"I'll let everyone know." The young ones are still roaring... but let me tell you something. Would you excuse me for a moment? "

"Thank you."

As he lowered his head, the general's face became like that of a ghost.

Svorun laughed with his nose.

That Svorun bowed his head, huh?

"... no, with all due respect... yes, that's right"

"I just didn't show my attitude." As the forerunner, I always wanted to be determined and nervous. "

It atrophied the people, was feared by the half-sister, and was a factor that did not trust the leader sincerely.

He narrowed his eyes to the lighting window at the top of the stone wall.

"Soon, spring will not come." But now the spring of Badarnois is waiting for you. ”

The brightness from there was just a little warm,

"We have to pick them up with our own hands." To do that, I'll change too. I look forward to your cooperation. "

Hmm, the old general in front of him rolled his eyes.

I think that face is fine.

I see. I don't know what I look like.

If you do, you can definitely check it in front of your face.

"Yeah, let's do that."

To end the long winter that lasted for years.

A man called the Ruthless White Knight realized his smile.

Spring comes and melts like ice.
