753. Sacrifice or Hero

"Shall I rephrase it so that you can understand?

Razornik said, the two nodded small and shifted their gaze to freelance journalists to escape the Fraxinus clergy.

"The Lacus Nenia family has descended the throne of power and many families have left the army when the Kingdom of Lacus Lacrimalis transitioned to a republican system. The Nemoralis, with information on Artel's massive offensive, asked Lord Sheratan to pull them out to the front."

"So you're saying that the ritual of sacrifice took place at the initiative of the Nemoralis army, not at the head of the Lacus Nenia family?

Razornik affirmed the young man's words and continued his explanation.

"Nemoralis has no conscription. Since my predecessor, the Republic of Lacus Lacrimalis, I have been recruiting. Even back in the old kingdom days, soldiers in general were recruits, and cavaliers and other cavalry classes had the right and duty to provide a certain number of military personnel, for example in the household. Those who left the army during the republican transition had no choice but to work."

"What does that have to do with the sacrifice?

"Lord Sheratan, too, kept his distance from the army. Without the unilateral bombing of the Artel Army, we would never have been on the battlefield."

Razornik, once cut off his words, saw the reactions of the human rights monitors coming from a country of scientific civilization. Have you stepped on the meaning of the words so far understood, continue explaining?

"Those who volunteered for the sacrifice, if you want to speak of the state of science and civilization, are, er..." volunteers who responded to military recruitment ”. They are“ heroes of the Redemption "who“ died in action ”against hundreds of bombers in the Artel Army, standing up to them with about ten men."

The leader of the Asakor party opened his mouth before the two members of the Human Rights Watch.

"If a reporter's words sound sobering, you who have other faiths, or who do not believe in any god, are poisoned by the culture and values of Kirkulusism."

"No... it's the..."

The human rights watchman from Alpofilm wipes his forehead sweat thoroughly, but no more words. As a nation that speaks of atheism and practises religious repression, the Alpofilm Confederation has been criticized for "violating freedom of worship", mainly in countries that prescribe state religion.

Young human rights monitors watched the situation silently.

The leader of the Asakor party folded up on two people who couldn't say anything.

"The Air Force of the Republic of Artel, which defines Kirkulusism as national religion, has killed hundreds of thousands of innocent non-combatants in indiscriminate bombardments, including children, the sick and the magically powerless people. You put the indiscriminate massacre of the Artel Army on the shelf, and you blame our Army for protecting many citizens with fewer than ten sacrifices as“ human rights violations "? Who in the hell is criticizing our country?

Not all direct deaths due to air raids.

Those who lost everything in winter air raids, starved or frozen to death, killed in looting, attacked by demons and warcraft who ate and empowered their bodies and lost their lives, health care providers destroyed, lost their lives due to wounds and diseases, killed in the terror of the star markers (shivers) on board…

It is not safe to escape as a refugee. Many lived and stopped treading on their homeland due to accidents, epidemics (still), food shortages, and food for demons and warcraft.

International political scientists also say in a voice that suppresses emotions.

"The life is destroyed by the unilateral bombing of the Artel army, which afflicts many times more people than the dead, but about which, do we not contest Artel as' a violation of human rights' on the grounds of his departure from the United Nations?

The officials of the NGO "Human Rights Watch in Conflict Grounds", who have a voice in the official setting of the international community, such as the United Nations, do not speak in silence.

Senator Laqueus snorted.

… as of the time of sending a wizard or someone with knowledge of witchcraft, it is like saying "I am not willing to lend my ear to what Nemoralis says".

Carrier Fiarlka asks in a quiet voice.

"Whether it's revenge, or defense, 'if this wish is to come true, there's no spare life,' the authority to deny people 'inhumane' in disregard of their despair and grief is given to who?

"Is it a sin that must be unilaterally brought to justice to lose everything and to be imprisoned for despair or to retaliate against those who have lost and grieved and taken away loved ones? Are those who take it not guilty?

The two NGOs do not even respond to the voice of the Nemoralis priesthood.

Fiarlka, a former priest, says, gazing at the center of the round table.

"I think the“ sacrifice ”of cooperating in an interception under military control is better than the desperate personally terrorizing the Artel mainland, for not killing the Artel non-combatants?... the feeling of people in civilized nations saying that... I don't know."

"Don't get me wrong, we're not blaming you for your“ personal ideas and doctrines, "the end investigators. You can just keep our language intact and report back to us at Headquarters and at the United Nations. That's why we're recording it, right?

The leader of the Asakor party heard it in a gentle voice.

The young investigator did not answer by eating up his teeth, and the senior let his eyes swim whether he was looking for words or not, just wiping the sweat off his forehead and saying nothing.

"This meeting is informal, so I am taking part in it in my personal capacity. For this occasion only, I am not speaking on behalf of His Majesty and the people, so I would like you to include me in that regard."

A Lacrimaris MP prefaced with a mouthful he took around. When we agree that we are slight, we put our fingers together on the round table, and we ride ourselves out slightly to continue.

"His Majesty and Parliament have not recalled any diplomats from the Republic of Nemoralis"

... right. Nemoraris is not isolated.

Rep. Laqueus recalled an interview with the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Lacrimaris and the newspaper clippings he had seen during his house arrest.

Many diplomats continue to be stationed in the wake of the coup. It would also have the purpose of gathering information about the whereabouts of the coup, but at the same time, he realized that Nemoralis was being watched without being abandoned.

Now Amitostigma is reaching out to me with refugee support.

The Kingdom of Lacrimalis also allows the passage of refugees and is accepted in temples and elsewhere as a "temporary evacuation while waiting for the ship". Naturalization is permitted only for those with relatives of the Lacrimaris.

Fiarlka caged her power in her green eyes.

"I explained my activities earlier, didn't I? Sometimes the mix of powerful and powerless people progresses around here, and even the couple of powerless people give birth to powerful people in isolation."

The members of the Human Rights Watch Corps will now wonder what they will say.

"In Artel, children who find out they have magic are dumped on Lanterna Island, sunk in a lake, or killed by a star sign. My biological parents and relatives asked for it, right? Even if you keep your child in your hand, the mother blames you for 'giving birth to the wicked', and it's everyday tea with your child. Isn't that“ gross human rights violations ”?

"Informative, I'm afraid. We will need to investigate the matter separately, so we will not be able to answer you right now."

Is it common for human rights monitors from Alpofilm to pursue even more?

Fiarlka narrowed her green eyes and laughed lightly.

"Really? Investigation, please hold on. We wizards believe that people in the Kirkulus cultural area think it's a kind of warcraft or something, not a human being... there's no such thing as"

"No, never such a thing..."

An ancient ginseng human rights investigator said instantly by stopping his sweat-wiping hand.

"As I said at the outset, this meeting is informal. Your valuable feedback will be brought back to HQ for reporting"

"Neither do we fully represent our respective attributes or positions because we are in an informal meeting."

The leader of the Asakor party saw the young senator as chilling. Senator Krapievnik shrugged his shoulder a little, but said nothing.

"It's just that all the Non assembled here are those who distance themselves from the Nemoralis government forces, the Nemus Liberation Army, the Nemoralis Grief Squad, and the armed forces who said the star sign (a servant), and who aspire to peace without resorting to force. It's an unnamed gathering, but this is how we are willing to engage in dialogue."

In response to the words of Congressman Laqueus, a Lacrimaris cleric will address a closing address with an acknowledgement.

The members of the NGO Human Rights Monitoring Group in the Conflicted Lands returned their complaining greetings and followed the Second Temple of Lacrimalis, the Wang capital, to flee.
