I Was a Sword When I Reincarnated (WN)
748 Why Nighthardt?
"Gilmouth! Oh no! It's not a boro rag!
Elsa screams when she sees Diaz held by Nighthardt, who stepped down beside Sibula.
As Elsa put it, Diaz, who was wounded all over her body, was so damaged that she couldn't help but be told she was a boro rag.
"Dear Nighthardt, I wonder if you did it?
"Yes. Regardless of the normal chasers, Lord Diaz and the others were too strong. If I had used my wife's hand, I would have lost. But I did first aid, so I'm not going to die."
Are you sure Nighthardt pinned Diaz down to that state? Although there is no noticeable damage to Nighthardt himself......
In the first place, is Nighthardt working with Sibula? But if you were one of the Eliantes, you must have a grudge against the Reids Kingdom...
"You mean you were a man of the Reids kingdom, too?
"No, isn't it?
"Oh? So you were hired as a mercenary?
"I'm sure you're hired, but you're not as a mercenary. I've already quit my regiment."
In response to Elsa's inquiry, Nighthardt shakes his neck to the side.
"Hmm. I don't see why you give them a hand, do you?
"There's a situation, and I want to go to the Reids Kingdom."
The other adventurers and spectators stared in solitude. I guess Elsa, a celebrity, and I don't have the guts to just break into a Nighthardt conversation.
Besides, the current state is like taking Diaz hostage. A far-fetched imitation could put Diaz in a predicament.
Neither adventurers nor nobles seemed to want to take responsibility for it.
"It's also, I don't just want to go, I want to move around somewhat freely over there. Well, are the Shibulas like bills of lading?
"What are you going to do, go to the Reids Kingdom? It wouldn't even be for tourist purposes."
"Do you have company? They are irreplaceable, family-like companions who slept together."
To Elsa's inquiry, Nighthardt returned such an inquiry. Elsa answers Nighthardt's question, albeit somewhat puzzled. I guess Nighthardt's seriousness was conveyed.
"I'm here. Solo as an adventurer, but the Urmut adventurers all feel like family"
"I, too, used to have people like that. No, I'm still here, but I was there a lot more. But my mercenary regiment has lost a great deal in the battle against the Reids kingdom and has fallen apart."
Pity mixes with Nighthardt's voice.
"At that time, as the palace of the retreating Kranzel Royal Army, the Red Sword Knights came after us - that is, fighting the Shibula lords, many of our compatriots scattered on the battlefield and fled to the Kranzel Kingdom with a crawling body that also left us. What you get is a little money and honor. What I lost is my family..."
"Then why are you giving Sibula a hand! It must be an enemy! Or do you resent the Kranzel kingdom that used you as lords?
That sounds most likely. What if the anger against the Kranzel kingdom that crushed them is prevailing over the Sibula that fought to defend the country?
I guess everyone thought so, but Nighthardt shook his head sideways again.
"I don't have any grudges. That's part of the deal, and someone had to serve as your lord. That would have been the best decision I could make then. If you're angry, it's on you who couldn't protect your people, and there's nothing in the Kranzel kingdom to think of."
"Well, then, I don't know extra. Why do you want to go to the Reids Kingdom now? No way, for a fellow grave visitor?
"You have that, too. Because that battlefield is in the territory of the Reids kingdom. But that's not all. I thought I was dead then, but I knew I was still alive in the Reids kingdom."
"They say some are protected, others fall into slavery. I want to rescue them. That's why we must definitely go to the Reids Kingdom."
If it were Nighthardt, it would be possible to break into the Reids kingdom. But when it came to getting out of the country after searching for and rescuing his companions, it was nearly impossible to be single.
We definitely need a collaborator. It would also be that Nighthardt referred to Sibula as a bill of lading.
"So you can't have Lord Sibula tied up here."
"So you're gonna do it with us?
"Are you sure? We have hostages here, sir?
"Oh? The kid let me go, and Gilmouth uses it as a hostage?
It was Sibula, not Nighthardt, who answered Elsa's question.
"I wouldn't hesitate if I were a warrior. The only thing I don't care about is the use of children who don't have the strength to fight."
"There's one thing there, why don't you show some respect for the elderly? Look, it's already Grandpa, and you've been busy lately? Mostly, all the pranks, and the contents aren't like kids?
It was shortly after Elsa told me so.
"Who says you're busy?
"Ya! Already! Don't surprise me till this happens! Because he's a real kid!
"Huh? When... Did they do this to you!
"Ha! You may be inferior in combat, but you can't remain defeated by deception!
The moment Diaz suddenly shows up behind Elsa and tells him so, Diaz, who was held beside Nighthardt, disappears to melt in the air.
They had somehow replaced it with a phantom. I didn't know that Nighthardt would escape without even noticing... He's still a horrible man. However, its entire body seemed scratchy and definitely beaten by Nighthardt.
"Did you intentionally lose to elicit information?
"No? I mean it, I'm a loser. Bugs are hard to imagine, hard to read thoughts, and really hard to do. But that's not all, is it? Nighthardt. You were out of control at the martial arts, weren't you?
Apparently, Diaz was defeated for real. That means Nighthardt's fighting power is outrageous, right?
It wasn't Nighthardt who responded most to Diaz's words. Hilt looks remorseful and stares at Nighthardt.
"You gave up the win! Nighthardt! I've always felt uncomfortable! I knew you didn't mean it!
"No. I can't believe I'm clueless. Because my wife doesn't use it that way, even for me. As of that time, you've reached your limit, haven't you?
"You're telling me you didn't mean that!
Hilt had a hard time beating Nighthardt. But what if Nighthardt didn't mean it? I hear her pride was hurt. I'm staring at you with an angry look.
"Fine...... Then now it's time for you to be serious. If you don't take me down, you're not getting out of here, are you?
"Ha... I wanted to get out of here in peace if I could...... My fault Lord Diaz ran away from me."
Nighthardt and Hilt's fighting spirit grows. It's going to start killing each other like this. The same applies to Sibula and Elsa.
(Master. What shall we do?
"If I put a bad lay in it, Hilt's going to resent me."
If I were to aim, would that be the Sibulas?
But before the death fight began, the battle was once again watered down.
"Calm down. Stupid grandson"
"Oh, Grandpa."
Demitris jumped to the center of the stage. I don't make you feel like a killer or a fighter, but I don't hammer intimidation as a strong man. Its mere presence had caused the heat that was swirling onto the stage to be cloud-sprayed.
"Shall we deal with him?"
