After restraining Mefri's hands and feet, blindfolded and shackled, we escaped from the underground passage.

I could only follow the example of Daphelias to gesture and seal my voice, beyond the unknown start-up conditions of Mefri's magic.

Nevertheless, it concerns detonation, and the conditions necessary for the bombing, perhaps necessary at the previous stage, remain unclear. By the time I came back to Fort Castle, me and Russywok were exhausted, even that Claudia, because I cared considerably not to inadvertently make contact with her or to narrow the distance from the child too narrowly.

The details are unknown, but it was only under a lot of pressure that Mefri seemed to be able to grasp the position of what had been bombed without relying on his sight.

I don't think I can fully grasp Vanita's passing out... but it's not as if Vanita hasn't been bombed.

"So, what do we do?

Without even concealing his tired face, Claudia shows Mefli with her gaze.

I made sure the kids hadn't come out of the aisle yet, and then I silently paid my hand in front of my neck. They were walking backwards quite a bit just in case Mephuri had no problem exploding the children.

"Successfully persuade…"

Claudia seemed unwilling to forgive the girl, but at the same time she also seemed to want to kill her if she could.

"Perhaps she's not the only one brought from Nazlik. From the looks of it, you can think of Epadena... well, you can also think of Lindar's subjects who draw southerners' blood."

Denying that it would be impossible to take it in by dialogue in the dark, did Claudia convince herself to wrinkle deeply between her brows and look down at the mepretensions she had brought in as she tried to pull it off.

He twists himself violently in a manner frightened by our voice, exhaling over a cloth that roughly bit him in the mouth.... Even though he is an operative, at this young age, he probably only teaches about how to use his abilities. Defeated and deprived of her physical freedom, she seemed to be completely losing her chill.

Especially if this makes her look like an age-appropriate operation, and I'm not sure it's any more than it might be.

"Pathetic."

One word, Claudia shrugs.

The deep voice color was clearly based on affirming Mefri's death, but Mefri didn't seem to know anything about it.

When the girl stops trying to rave, she crawls in Claudia's direction.

... the sight seemed too miserable.

A young girl, only about six years old, is throwing herself on the ground like a dying bug at the humans who are about to kill herself with a rope of blood on her.

The trembling body, which collapses like a force out of her knees, manifests her fears in such a way that it doesn't seem like an act.

………… …………

Perhaps I must have looked down at the girl with a ruthless and extreme look at her then.

"... well, that's really pathetic. Though he had more power than intelligence, he was so young that he was clearly considered a forsaken pawn destined to die."

"Lord Eliza...?

Surprisingly Claudia looks at me.

─ ─ He noticed my behavior like poisoning a dying child.

Mefri reacted to my words, tingly and physically.

"This child must have been betrayed and abandoned. It wasn't strange to be killed at the time of capture. For those who sent these children here, even this girl didn't care if she died for nothing."

Mefri shook her head reluctantly as she roared at my voice. Like complaining all over your body if you don't want to hear it.

But you'll have to listen to me. She doesn't have a choice when it's over.

"─ I'm sure whoever sent this kid in won't be able to make a normal decision. I didn't know you would send someone with such power to kill him on purpose...... If this child was my soldier. I would never do anything awful like that."

I can make a noise that is boisterous, pompous, and bounce off the floor of Fort Castle what seeped out of the cloth covering Mefri's eyes.

I still looked down on the miserable, pathetic young child on top of this, who rubbed off to my feet as he crawled.

─ ─ The fact that this is brainwashing was something I realized.

If dialogue makes it impossible to capture her, there is no better way to get in than to hunt her down and break her spirit.

I am unwilling to trust any values that would be fundamentally different from her Arxian.

If you want to use it alive on the assumption that you don't trust it, I don't know how to do it other than that.
