Claudia, based on what Gunter told me, I asked Vallon if he was really hiding anything, and he talked to him without any suspicious remarks or prompt answers.

Says he came to Arxia to fulfill directives from the Church.

Says the directive content meets a woman named Dayferias who waits on Augrain territory and cooperates with the woman.

Says several of the bandits, including myself, are followers of the Leva and Western Alphena Churches, and the church that gave them the directive is its Western Alphena Church.

Some of them are nobles of the Principality of Denzel.

Says the rest of the bandits were real bandits and were hired by their own followers.

Says a woman named Daphelias has made a huge forehead stop at the Western Alphena Church.

Said he was told to pass through Cardiac territory when going for Augrain territory.

Nearly six months have passed since we captured them, but these unique nouns have never been spoken before.

"What was Daphelias trying to do with you guys?

"Come on, I don't know the details. I'm pretty sure it's some kind of workmanship against Arxia."

Working activities, or…. Past the back of the brain is still about Nordstelm, who shows suspicious movements, and the nuns who are walking into and out of its territory repeatedly. The nuns, in particular, are a risk factor that spreads bad reviews about nobility and works to break the order in Arxia.

I'm talking about the Augrains being the home of the wife of the current lord Nordstelm. It would be more natural to assume that Augrain is also involved in their suspicious movements.

"So the Western Alphena Church wants to enter the Arxian kingdom? Or do you want Arxia to collapse?

"Of course, I want it to collapse. The fanatics like Ramiz seriously think, such as a nation that will be built on the cult Kusha religion. I'm not. My parents did, but I was buying into that church for money. Whatever, it's profitable. Like Daphelias, there are many believers who wish for the ruin of Arksia, both inside and outside Denzel, and put money in it."

That's why Vallon threw up, saying he was sorry to die to keep up with such ideas and pass silence.

Apparently, Ramiz is the name of a man who still remains in the basement of the hall. Most of all, I'm already not interested in a man who just becomes a frozen corpse after that.

Nevertheless, I think. If you believe in the story of Vallon, its Western Alphena Church becomes a terrorist group, or organization, aimed at the struggle against Arksia, which is only named after the Church. Moreover, there are many supporters.

"In such a position, it would be easy to understand the purpose of other believers"

"... oh yeah. The people who make inroads outside the fanatics are mostly merchants and later nobles. Merchants are the ones who target the specialties of the Arxian country, or many who deal in weapons and medicines. And nobles want land."

I mean, what do you get when there's war? Merchants invest in powerful terrorist organizations with the aim of being war special needs or stripping their country from Arxia.

Because the nobles want Arxian territory, they will have to invest in terrorist organizations with operatives in order to be at all advantageous when the war actually breaks out.

… and that Nordstelm, a nobleman of our country, may be part of it?

Scorching emotions like boiling water make you bubble and bubble around the bottom of your belly.

"But if it's so flashy, it should be a little more prominent."

"The Western Alphena Church is a small church. The original church is huge, so he's using your umbrella."

...... Unlike Kusha, the major churches of Leva exist in multiple ways. However, it is true that smaller churches are difficult to come up with information, as all of them have structures with several small churches under their umbrella.

None of the major churches had church names containing the words' Western 'or' Alfena '. I can't even look into it. If it were to be all the small churches, it would be a huge number. Especially if the original scale of activity as a church is such a small one that it is only known to the local people, it is nearly impossible to wash it out.

Vallon waited silently for a while for me to start thinking in silence. But you came up with something, and, hey, you called me.

"Are all Arxia kids so creepy?"

"... I don't know"

"You must be less than ten years from what I've seen. If I was born in Denzel, it wouldn't be weird enough to be killed for telling me that the devil is possessed."

Well, it's like being possessed by half the devil from the people of Denzel at the time of his birth in Arxia. And the man goes on.

I could see a wrinkle leaning between my eyebrows. The concept of demon is not found in Kusha, but I learn that it is a highly used word in the Romur Ringwar denominations used in Eastern countries. It was also easy for me to understand the concept, having memories of a previous life.

Therefore, it reacts. Because I considered the many acts of the spicy Cardiac family to be "the work of the devil" in a previous life that was nothing else.

"The Devil..."

And I think the words I'm going to tell the man. Exactly, I'm not ashamed of Cardia's name, it would be the devil's place.

"I understand your story well. I'll keep my word, too."

"─ Is it true!

I'll smile back at the joyful man, too.

"Oh, of course."

Take a seat. At the same time, two soldiers restrain Vallon's arms from left to right, grate them from their chairs and make them kneel down. I borrowed a fine sword from Gunter behind me and put it down the man's throat.

"... Huh?

The man's grin freezes. That became his last voice.

Between the clavicles, from the soft spot of the upper throat, the tip of the fine sword that pierces avoiding the cervical vertebra pops out to the back of the neck. And the lips, and the man's mouth overflowed with reddish brown blood, and the floor was nil.

"I forgot to tell you, you're already dead. Which means only corpses get out of jail."

The man's eyelids tremble fine, his bloody lips battle.

The voice didn't speak, but I felt like the lips were being moved by demons.

Not now. It was like I was already cursed at the time I was born into this world as Eliza Cardia.

In the first place, I don't intend to let the bandits go alive myself. You hurt and offended my people. It was only natural for me to die and be atoned for.
