Thanks to Sakura, the current situation of the Kai family is dim.

Uncle who took his place from Shiranui-Habaki, although he has a hard-line attitude to bring his clan together, seems to be ignoring that the limit is still close.

It has been reported that humans have begun to focus on escort corps, and sourcing food and supplies has become more severe, with a particularly depressed atmosphere recently.

Sakura was also caught because of his reckless attempts to break through the situation. In other words, dangerous bets are being driven to the point where they are needed.

"From the beginning, the Kai family was intelligence, so I knew that if people in this country became serious, they wouldn't be able to reach out immediately."

Sakura spills with a face that looks like a haunted object.

"So everyone really knew, as my brother had said, that it was right to live and live in the people of this country. Uncle who took his place from his brother, surely ... "

However, Habaki has become a hardliner and is still instigating the Kai family without breaking his opinion. Sakura doesn't seem to know why.

Looking at Siranui, he had a face he could have come to mind, but he did not speak. I don't know if I don't feel the need to speak or if it's an intuitive thing that I can't verbalize clearly.

However, if you have no intention of speaking to yourself, you will not be prompted.

In any case, it is important to note that the Kai family did not want to rob themselves. In this case, there should be a chance to hear this proposal.

I got information from Sakura and think about my future plans.

There is little time for a doll left in prison instead of Sakura to take the place of a substitute. The Kai family is also nearing their limits, and are being cornered by reckless operations.

To solve the situation, we need to act as soon as possible. There is no time to prepare the negotiator or the garbage. Then there was only one option.

"I have to talk to Habaki directly in me and Shiranui. Can I go to Shiranui? Guide me to your retreat immediately."

When I told, Shiranui looked surprised.

"I'm okay, are you okay? It's dangerous?"

"Yes! It's dangerous to jump into your opponent's home suddenly!"

Nao, worried, appealed to me to stop his hand.

"Yes. I think Sakura should be stopped. My uncle is frustrated. If I do not like it, it will be ok to be killed on the spot."

Sakura informs you of the danger that can be predicted intuitively.

Certainly, it's dangerous and I don't think it's a good idea. But that's why some thoughts are transmitted.

Well, just because the negotiations have broken, we don't mean to be caught calmly and will be rampant to escape desperately, but we should show the willingness to leave no dangers in order to resolve the situation. What you reach when you throw the orthodox from the safe zone does not reach.

So I told in a strong tone.

"No, this is a decision. I'm heading to the Kai family retreat with Shiranui. Nao is waiting here with Islafil.

It's a bit harsh, but it's better to tell it accurately without blurring. If Nao was taken hostage, it would be far from negotiating.

"Wow, I understand."

Nao seems a little sick, but nods without rebuttal.

"Bad, take care of Sakura."

"Please wait, Sakura is together-"

Shiranui stops Sakura trying to get out of bed.

"You are also answering. Do you know why?"

"……Yes"

Sakura may well know how to fight, but he can't move satisfactorily with a weakened body. If you can't act quickly in the event of an emergency, you'll have to be on your feet. It's enough for me and Shiranui to go to dangerous places.

"Nao, you're quiet before you return?"

"……Yup"

I stroked my head to reassure Nao.

From the next room, Ibrafil's Ibiki can be heard. He's really sleeping ...

His own pace was frustrating and a bit enviable.

The gates of Spiralka are already closed.

I jumped over the gate using my bracelet-type gravity control device. On the other hand, Shiranui climbed the city wall with his finger or foot in a small gap, and climbed instantly, and landed outside the gate silently.

After leaving Spiralka, head to the Kai family retreat with Syranui's guidance.

Its speed is faster than horses, and it never goes down. As expected, espionage is elite. If we couldn't fly at high speed with a gravity controller, we wouldn't have been able to keep up for an instant.

"It's time to go to a retreat. Let's go carefully from here."

It is right in the middle of the prairie, where you can't see the right or left without a star in the sky, but Siranui seems to know the exact location.

According to the story, you cannot see the hideout from here with the power of genjutsu, but everything is visible from beyond. In addition, he keeps his guard all day long, and when he notices the presence of an enemy, he uses genjutsu to change his sense of direction, and he will return to his original path without his knowledge.

Indeed, it makes sense not to find a hideout.

"But you can't cope with human tactics if you do it, or if you have a high-level wizard, it'll be easy to figure out how it works. "

"Yes, we have to do something to avoid the worst."

Shiranui nods to my words.

"Mr. Quito, let's decide a simple signal before entering the hideout."

"Signs?"

"Yes. It would be useful if we could communicate in addition to words. For example, two consecutive blinks would be dangerous and ready to escape."

"Certainly, yes. Will you think of some because it fits Shiranui?"

"I see.-

It would have been nice if Shiranui had noticed in advance, but if you think carefully, the person I'm trying to negotiate now is an espionage professional.

It would be difficult to negotiate with them at this pace. Without the help of Shiranui, another espionage professional, there was a danger of being easily picked up.

"I will rely on Shiranui's decision at the negotiations."

"I see. I'll leave everything to Quito for the final decision, but I'll give him a signal so he can understand what he wants not to say."

After sharing the signal, I tell Shiranui how to negotiate specifically.

It calls for a quick halt of banditry and evacuation from the prairie.

Naturally, it is not advisable to stop burglary, but to stay here after such a problem has occurred. Not only because the human side is planning a cleanup operation, but also because it seems to me.

Instead, we admit to living in our empty city-Pomdor.

Of course, as long as you are a resident, you will be asked to follow these instructions and you will not be able to forgive yourself. It is necessary to forget the past and to be a good and good townsman.

It should not be a bad condition to escape the clan's destruction. To put it bluntly, saying the Savior would not be too much.

But the problem is that no matter how much you help yourself, it's a matter of accepting it honestly. If it were that easy, in the first place I would not do business on the ground and get a position to be trusted by anyone.

Fence Pride, prejudice, thought, religion, customs, and everything else deprive and bind human judgment. Therefore, whether or not a negotiation is successful is a perfect match.

However, if you are unlucky, you may be turned away before negotiations.

"I think that's okay."

Shiranui denies my worry.

"Whether or not to accept Mr. Quito's suggestion, we will be at the bargaining negotiations. In the current situation of being cornered, we need more information beyond that."

"In other words, do you want to catch and make it hostage?"

"If the negotiations aren't going well, it will be, but it's okay if I save my life before that, I'll escape Mr. Quito."

Siranui's tone is mild and does not feel like he is resting.

Perhaps he is really saying that. In other words, you are confident in your technology. As expected, is it something like a former owner?

As a matter of fact, at worst, if this body fails, there is not much problem.

My body is a toy spider, and this body is just a subbody. When I die, when the toy spider falls. Not when this body breaks.

Since the body data of this body is recorded in Toyokumo, it is possible to create the same new subbody.

But I can't teach Shiranui that much. The fact that Toyokumo is packed with information on the gods is even keeping Senna secret.

So, when thinking about Shiranui, I want to do it well so that he doesn't waste his life.

"Mr. Quito, that's our hideout."

Shiranui pointed at a corner of an empty grassland. But that's probably because genjutsu masks the truth.

"I'm already aware of this, but I don't feel hostile, maybe because I'm confused by my existence."

"Do you understand that?"

"For family members only, for now. Let's approach as it is. Raise your hands and follow slowly next to you."

"I see. I'll leave everything here."

According to Shiranui's words, I walk next to it.

After a while, Shiranui stopped and said something to the void. The language is unknown to me, probably from Siranui's home country.

Then there was a reply from the void that seemed to be the same language.

"What are you saying?"

"They say why the exiled person came back and who the next man is."

"Well, that's a natural question."

"Yes, please wait for a while."

The conversation between Shiranui and the watchmen continued for a long time. Did the change happen about an hour later?

"He told me to talk to my uncle."

――Thirty minutes later.

"I acknowledge my uncle is in talks. Let's get inside."

Inspired by Shiranui, I step into the void. In front of it was a brightly lit bonfire and a small settlement.
