Run the horse first.
Instruct Sellas to walk with him to the Eves' horse.
Eve was upset.
"What's up?
"I often walk alone at night. Even if I'm not in my room tonight, my discomfort should be faint..."
The White Foot Pavilion was on the verge of closing in.
There were no other humans in the building than the mistress.
The lights in the store have been turned off.
At least until morning, I didn't think I'd find the body...
"Have you talked to anyone about getting out of the King's Capital? For example, a fellow bloodfighter."
"No, I haven't told anyone. I intend to take great care not to be taken into account, in particular by the Duke, the branch chiefs of the mercenary guild and the private commander of the Duke. But......"
Eve roaring herself in the back of her throat.
I think I know something.
"I met one man just before I left the blood battlefield. Maybe he found something when he looked at me."
"Who?
"It's a man named Muazi. I was aware of the signs of the others. But... I'm ashamed I didn't notice him approaching until I was called out."
"I see."
I looked back.
"Asynt's best friend."
Turn forward again.
Eve's inference is probably a hit.
Muazi was uncomfortable with how Eve was doing then.
From the information obtained so far, Asynt is connected to the Duke.
"Muazi, concerned about your condition, went straight to the Duke to convey his discomfort. Eve Speed was acting strange, he said. So... I suggested that we should check for Eve's luggage or the White Foot Pavilion with Liz"
This is the man who found Eve strange in a short time.
I would have immediately figured out what happened at the White Foot Pavilion.
The reason the chaser moved too fast was simply because the chaser noticed it quickly?
The factor I noticed quickly was Muazi.
Asint's boss seems to have excellent observation skills.
The reading is also sharp.
Essential abilities for con artists.
"I guess Muazi will take this opportunity to sell his excellence to the Duke. It's a great opportunity, even if it means demonstrating the power of Asynt."
Then Asint seems to be in the chase.
Will you capture Eve?
Or do you kill them?
Either way, we can show more power of our own.
A bunch of spellmen outnumbered the strongest blood fighters.
This also makes the Pendragon Killer more authentic.
I can show that Asynt is really strong.
"... sorry. Because of me, I put those people in unwanted danger."
Eve slows down the horse.
Liz looked up at Eve anxiously.
"Hey, honey?
"Toka, get Liz..."
"You want us to leave you alone and stop the chaser?"
"Stop, hey......"
Liz burst into tears.
"... this is how I take responsibility. At least once, this child alone escapes..."
"No matter how many of the strongest blood fighters, you can't beat that number of opponents alone."
I blocked Eve's words.
"Above all, what if I lose my guide to the contraindicated witch here?"
"But... as it is, sooner or later they'll catch up"
Luggage.
Two passengers.
Speed is up over there.
If it does stay this way, any of it will be caught up.
The lights were getting closer and closer.
However, the number is decreasing slightly.
Some lights went into the left and right woods.
They're searching the woods, too.
but still a significant number remain.
Our horses rush up some slopes.
Round your neck, check your rear.
Further beyond the leading group, another heap of lights could be seen.
"That's the second line... that's a good number."
Thank you for your hard work.
I skipped instructions.
"Stop the horse and get off."
Cellas slows down the horse.
Eve wolfed.
"What are you going to do?
"Intercept"
Release your arm from Sellas' body, I said.
"revealed, assembled"
▽
Two horses run across the darkness.
A horse bracketed in the body with branches of a tree that emits light.
It's the horse we were riding.
It was helpful that Selas and Eve were used to handling horses.
Both heads rush away vigorously as intended.
I'm not putting anything on it, so it's fast.
Light-emitting tree branches are the ability of the Spirit of Light.
Can impart light to the object for a certain amount of time.
However, the consideration is never cheap.
"Sorry, Sellas."
"No."
"When you calm down, I'll put you to sleep."
Cellas smiling thinly.
"Yes, please."
The sound of multiple horseshoes approaching.
We killed our breath in the bush.
"Lieutenant, give me that!
"That glow!? All right - I finally caught you! Two lights! A girl with a leopard, no mistake!
"As the man named Muazi read, they were looking north."
"Oh, that's something like killing a black dragon"
"The others who have been turned have now wasted their lives."
"We were lucky to have been turned north! All right! We'll take the title of Leopard Killer! You can't give it to Asynt or the mercenaries! Go after him! Go after him!
The first moments pass by reluctantly.
The first inning sounds like a Duke private soldier......
That's what I could tell from the mouthfeel.
I hear some of them have been turned in other directions.
Did you have a certain effect thanks to sealing your mistress's mouth?
A few, but they seem to have dispersed their power.
Eve dived in her voice and said.
"From that talk, it looks like Asynt and the mercenaries are being driven out too..."
"I guess the mercenary was caught and gathered by the Duke in reward. As Asynt just said, we came out to show our strength"
The first team follows the horse that ran away.
The horse we were riding on right now is in a mild condition.
It'll take a while to catch up.
A first break is success.
Eve turns toward the second line as she dives into the bush.
"There was no asint in the lead group. If so, that second formation might be Asynt."
Muazi read that Eve had fled north.
Then there's a good chance he's coming this way.
I'm not supposed to be going anywhere but north.
In other words, the second team would have a good chance of being Asynt.
"Eve."
"Mm?"
"You have good ears at night, don't you?
"Uhm."
"I want to ask you for one thing...... so when you're done with that, hide yourself in the woods a little further away, and protect Liz and her luggage there. I'm staying here."
"I'll fight here, too"
"I need a cellus for what I'm about to do now. Then someone else needs to protect Liz. If Liz gets caught, she's in danger of being held hostage. Don't you?"
"Mmm..."
Eve pulled back quietly.
I just told you to follow my instructions.
There seems to be no falsehood.
Look up at the sky from between the branches.
There were a lot of thick clouds floating around tonight.
It's good that the moon tends to hide.
Full of darkness, available.
Cellas came face-to-face.
"We are probably not known to exist on the other side. They must think Eve and Liz are the only ones on the run. So I thought if I did well, I'd keep them alert."
I don't know.
Cellas tilted his little neck.
"And, okay?
"Somehow, but I feel a man named Muazi even assumes the presence of a collaborator"
"Lord Toka is buying Muaji for the most part."
"The spell they use... don't you think it's frigid?
"Well, you do have a frigid odor. Unlike surgical or spiritual art, do you say that there does not seem to be an entity…"
"Nevertheless, Muazi is forcing many to believe in the effects of the spell. I have a sincere sense of worship from my subordination... and most likely, Muazi is a pretty nasty liar."
For once, I also know who the spell is...
Eve tilted her neck as she was listening to the conversation.
"In short, what are you trying to say?
"No matter how bad it is, Muazi means he's going to turn his head"
Indicate the temples with your fingers.
"That, too, is pretty"
I'm also coming over to read the movement over here.
I bet you're still trying to figure out how this one works.
The speed at which the chaser was released tells the story.
The words of the private soldiers earlier.
"As the man named Muazi read, it looks like they were going north."
Muazi read the direction of Eve's escape as North.
Guess I guessed from that rumor.
”Eve Speed knows where the contraindicated witch is."
Muaji knew the rumor.
The Golden Haunted Demon Belt, where contraindicated witches are said to live in hiding.
If Eve now is going to take Liz and escape in with a tick or a bee, that's the only way.
Muazi read just like that.
…………
In short, he can hang up.
Eve asked while I was holding my luggage.
"Do those few opponents have a chance?
"It depends on how you do it. If you can't win by hitting them directly in the front, you just have to drag them into the realm where we're going to win."
Liz holds the rest of the baggage.
I stood up and saw where the second line was.
"I just didn't think I'd be starting to bump into Asynt here"
"... sorry. It's all because my side was sweet."
Eve mouths an unknown apology several times.
I glanced at Eve.
"You may be responsible for this situation."
And Liz panicked and bowed her head.
It's like, don't just say that you're jointly and severally responsible about Eve.
"Everything you've done is for me... so it's me that's bad... so..."
Liz's little shoulder was shaking.
Shit.
This was not my way of saying it.
Breathe.
"No, don't get me wrong. Nothing. I'm not blaming Eve. And Liz, of course."
Hands the fly mask and distorts the end of the mouth.
"The situation now, if it works, could produce the results I want... it might be more convenient for me"
Was my reaction unexpected?
Eve and Liz both looked vain.
Wear a fly mask.
Come on, let's get started.
