"Lord Toka"

"... ahh"

Serrus and I were looking in the same direction.

Signs of something approaching - sound.

Concentrate your consciousness on hearing.

He's running away from something.

It's like this.

If it wasn't an act, I'd be running pretty desperately.

We stood by while we were ready to fight.

Eventually,

Shit!

The leaves scattered and a girl jumped out.

The girl once opened her mouth wide.

And then a little bit.

"Go on, run away!"

... cat ears.

You're a subhuman?

Her hair is light peach.

The back length is quite low.

It feels like a child.

But....

Why is there a child here?

"... are you being chased by something?

When asked, the cat-eared girl stopped and checked her back.

Again, face us again.

"Oh, a terrible monster has appeared!" "Nyaki has come to pick rare herbs that can be taken here!" But the monster attacked me and ran away to save my life! "So get out of here, both of you!"

I wonder if the name is Nyaki.

The girl points south.

"As you may know, if you go all the way out there, you'll be in Ursa territory!" Um... "

The girl points to the direction we came next - east.

"Nyaki, run away!"

"... won't you run away with me?

"Hmm!?" Hmm... I wonder if you'll believe me, but Nyaki attracts monsters. "" In the meantime, please run away. "

…………

This guy.

Whoops!

A girl who smacks her chest with pride.

"Nyah!" Nyaki feels fast! "" As you can see, I was wounded by a little monster attack, but this is still sturdy. ♪ So don't worry. ♪ So please run away quickly! "" Let's go! "

As the girl tried to run over the side,

"Hey."

I stopped the girl.

"Can I ask you one thing?

"Hmm, what is it?" Let's get out of here..... "

"When you... appeared before us, the first time..."

I got it.

You tried to say "help”, didn't you?

"Nh..."

Perfect.

Nyaki's movements stopped.

"It's my fault..."

"You're lying, right?

Determine the authenticity of Seras.

"Nyah, Nyaki... Nyaki, I'm so sorry!

Suddenly the yaki turned back towards us and sat down.

"Actually, Nyaki is being chased for his life!" "The followers are very strong!" "Perhaps... you'll both get involved!" "So hurry up and get out of here!"

…………

This kid.

My life is in danger, in this situation.

You tried to get us outta here.

One self chooses to go deeper into the more dangerous swarm belt.

Instead, they tried to get us away from deep into Ursa in the south.

Besides, it is.

Swallow aggressively the ”help” you were about to say the first time.

I lied about being chased by monsters.

Secondly, you save yourself.

Lie to me.

For what?

To keep us out of this.

――――――――

The exposed girl's arm.

It got into my eyes.

I hear a voice that suppresses tremors.

"What's your name... Nyaki?

"Heh? Ah, that's right... ah, let's get out of here..."

"That arm....."

Hmm?

"Did they do this to you?

…………

"Lies don't make sense. You know that."

"... that's right."

Selas nodded to me with a serious look.

... I'm not lying.

"Okay. It may have been hard to answer, but... thank you for your answer."

I'll take the fly king's mask out of the luggage.

The ”signs” are still far away...

Ko (...) Chi (...) or (...) et al. (...) Yu (...) is (...), ah (...) Ru (...)

Girl - Nyaki looked up at me in a daze.

"Ah, um... what are you going to do... hmm...?

I'm going to crush the people who are after you.

"Hmm!?

With a surprised expression on his heart, Nyaki jumps up.

"Nh, no!

"Is there a problem? They're after your life, aren't they? And if you want to live... then I'll live with them..."

"It's that sword of valor that's after my life!"

"...... heh"

Nyaki keeps his hands busy.

It's like trying to add a gesture to a part that doesn't get cut off.

"Or are they very strong people!" "I want to challenge the Bakuoshi Empire's” most powerful man, ”or something like that!"

The ”most powerful man" is already dead.

... hmm?

Does that mean they still don't know Civito's death?

”Sword of valor."

”Mankind's strongest."

Let's see if I haven't come by those two names.

"That's it... eh, eh... that's it!

Nyaki was in a hurry and added another name.

"--The swords of valor are so fierce that they are destroying the Speed clan that was famous for all the mighty...!

…………

"...................................................... what did you just say?

What tribe?

"That's right!" Those Speed Tribes are the ones who couldn't win! "Besides, the swords of valor were still children then...!

Probably not.

I thought the strength of the sword of valor had finally been conveyed by naming the Speed clan.

But it's not.

- Of course not.

No, I don't know his name. I remember clearly that it was unusually strong in my age..... "

Eve's words when Erica asked about those who attacked the Speed tribe.

"... I see. Oh, I see... I see... they are."

Selas seems to have grasped the situation.

"In other words, those who are chasing Lord Nyaki...."

Ah.

The Speed tribe - the people who killed Eve's parents.

Well,

…………

Either way...

Considering what happened to Nyaki, there can be no escape.

The sword of valor

Ko (...) Ko (...), bang (...), crush (...).
