Fifty-seven Tales: Valley of Despair

Several adventurers who were nearby arrive in Sante. A spear on the sword, a flail cutting the wind, approaching with intent to kill.

Sante summoned all the spring of his body with the temper of tearing, waving down the sword of the great flesh.

The blade passes through the bodies of the three adventurers who were in time, the feeling and resistance of breaking bone meat in their hands, and the resulting pain runs.

Adventurers who shed blood from under their armor and clothes and fell.

But soon afterwards, the body is trampled over and attacked.

Determining that he had no time to put back the sword of the swinging flesh, Sante stepped on to rub the pattern of the sword that the defeated adventurer had dropped on the floor.

Gin, he makes a noise, and when the sword twirls, he rises into the air spinning.

He grabs the sword raised with his left hand in a gap flickered for a moment by the enemy who was about to wave his hand axe and sticks it in his throat.

He kicked his enemies, who would have stomped if he had blown a bubble of blood, and rebuilt his flesh-fucking sword with that recoil.

I just happened to knock down the four of them. But I also breathe up in the meantime.

A knife flies out of a group of enemies to Santé, who breathes heavily and repeatedly with a sword that makes him bleed.

I should shake my head and avoid it, but I was ripped off my cheek.

To Sante, a song, Salida with a sword, runs in. The mouth was slightly swollen.

"... Sasori again!!

He blew what Salida had in his mouth on Sante, waving a flesh-slapping sword on the horizontal line. Sante's eyes, ignored, capture a flying object filled with saliva.

Black, clumps of stubborn objects.

Only the tails of countless sasoris are tied together with strings, including needles.

The tail of the sasori has sometimes secreted lethal poison even after the death of the owner.

All the poisonous needles on the flying tail were pointing toward Sante.

On the verge of the needle touching the back of his left hand, Sante released his left hand from the flesh-flapping sword and twisted himself to avoid the tail of the sasori.

The poison needle slips through right next to the raised armpit.

- I got it.

Salida's voice sounded on Sante's chest as he interrupted the attack and glanced at himself.

The sound of a song sword cutting the wind. Salida's blade cut straight through Sante's left leg, which he pulled up in front of his chest.

Spraying blood falls on Sante's face, falling on his back. Salida smiled so much that her face changed that she said, 'Look at the movement of her mouth' alone.

"Gu...... Ugh!!

With a screaming and temperamental scream, Sante waves the flesh-slapping sword as it slides down the floor.

But when the song sword was thrown on his right wrist and poked at him, the flesh-slapping sword flew away from Sante's hand, still in momentum.

Salida's shoes step on Sante's cheek.

The other adventurer's weapon was then pounded with sound, and Sante remained down and surrounded.

"Yay, I did it! General were you watching!? Salida the Song Sword has defeated the traitor!

"Oh, well done...... we'll play the medal later, Salida"

Yuk says without even dusting while sitting on the throne.

Sante glanced at Yuk and the faces of Makito and Mariela, and finally saw the knight of Coffin, Ryde Harbatos.

I spit at his face, not even supposed to reach him with Salida stepping on his cheek.

"It's what Knight Coffin had a fool! If I offer the Demon King, there will be no one left in Coffin for Yuk to risk! Can't you see that they invade without any hesitation!?

"You must have understood the will of the House of Lords, which my father chaired,"

Halbatos makes a low voice in return for Sante straight away.

The hand throws its helmet on the floor, a testament to the Coffin Knight, and pulls the cape apart unwrought.

To Sante, who had his own hair buried in his face, Harbatos turned to his unbearable expression.

"Coffin has no chance of winning this war. Coffin is truly in danger of annihilation due to the food crisis caused by Snova's policy of occupation, as well as other shortages of supplies, coupled with the death of Morg and the emergence of the blue sky, while also increasing the threat of the strongest God.

Not in a state where you can fight...... no, in case you leave the snobber army, it is impossible to rebuild the country in the current Coffin environment. The dry earth can only be thrown away. In the end, the country will vanish. "

"... so you're going to give Euk everything and feed the whole people. Now is the time to take over the Senate's traitor plot and sacrifice the royal family to gain life as slaves?

"Not a traitor!!

Suddenly a yelling halbatus shook his fist up as he turned to Yuk for each body.

"Sure! I may renounce my duties as a royal minister and do something contrary to my pride as a knight! As a Coffin, I may be committing a disgraceful act of enmity and trying to put an end to the history of my country!

My countrymen, later historians offer me, spit (dash), and maybe hate me as the worst traitor! But heh! "

Halbatos' eyes emit a burning hot gaze at Yuk's cold expression.

"You can't protect your country just by being right! Whether you're wrong or distorted, there's nothing you can do to keep people alive! In Princess Lucina's way, the people will die! If you choose to fight, no one will survive!!

Inside the enemy castle, with all the snobbers hissing, the knight of Coffin vociferously denied the princess of his country.

Sante accidentally overlaid his appearance with that of his past self. I held my faith, I denied the status quo thinking for my country and my people, and I destroyed the world as a result of my actions.

Before the content of the beliefs is correct, Sante knows painfully the dangers of individuals attempting to determine the immediate fate of the country without due process or argument and with their actions alone.

Lucina, her colleagues and Harbatos, who steal the eyes of the people and work for Yuk, were about to make exactly the same mistake as Santé once did.

"This Ryde Harbatos is a man of insult (uncle). He who keeps the Coffins alive after being offered to all mankind.

Save the people from the earth, which is just on its way to death, and lead them under the protection of Snoba. That was the justice that the Senate tried to do. In order to succeed justice, I made a re-oath of allegiance to Princess Lucina and stayed with the Knights.

All in order to give Snobba information in the most critical phase and have him defeat the royal family… "

"Enough. I'm just saying that there was a remnant of the Senate after all. 'Sell the feminine, so rule gently'... that's what you're trying to say, Halbatos"

As Yuk bent his mouth and said, Harbatos approached the throne, kneeling and drooling his head.

"The Coffins pledge their eternal loyalty to you and Snobba. Please let us live, believe, and be merciful as me. We will soon be able to become a legitimate people of Snowba."

"Hmm. If Princess Lucina makes me say the same dialogue, I'll think about it.... a traitor who doesn't doubt his greatness loses the end, yeah? Sante."

When Yuk punches his tongue, Salida of the song sword steps around Sante's cheek with the soles of his shoes.

I'm done. To Santé, who blinds his eyes, Yuk brings judgment with a brief mockery.

"Let's not humiliate or torture our fellow snobbers together.

I just want to execute him now... but I came up with a good thing. It's Sante. "

Euk says, pointing his raised thumb loosely at the floor or the ceiling.

"I'll give you a taste of living hell. No matter how sorry I am, I will drop you into the valley of despair."
