Kuro no Senki (LN)

Lesson 14: The Return of the Living Dead, as amended

Late February 433 of the Imperial Calendar - The cemetery north of the Imperial Capital was dark at noon and had a gloomy atmosphere.

Ronald rubs through the wooden piles and between the large stones placed in place of the tombstone and spears away to see if the thief is hiding or dead grass.

Why, if I had to do this, Ronald poisoned me in his heart and sighed small.

Though poisoned in my heart, I know that the graveyard lookout is the job of the guards.

If you skip around, they'll expose the grave and take away the golden-eyed stuff.

If that's all, I can't even stand the guy who's still stealing the body.

I know, but when I look around the cemetery alone on such a cold day, I feel like all I'm losing.

Ronald stopped and looked over at the cemetery.

It is the poor and criminals who are buried in this cemetery.

The guy with a little more gold is buried in a sunny cemetery on the south side and, if he has more gold, in a temple cemetery.

It's a terrible story because poor people struggle not only when they're alive, but even after they die.

It is also ironic to say at last.

The guards are hated by the city's residents.

Such hated guards protect the graves of those who hated themselves.

What would you say this is if it wasn't ironic?

I'm not going to tell you to thank the dead, but I want the living people to understand that the guards are working hard.

"What, what?

Ronald narrowed his eyes.

The pile behind the cemetery is moving.

Maybe someone buried alive is trying to crawl out.

Running over to the pile, the ground was moving.

Swallow the saliva and put your strength into the hand holding the spear.

Something terrible is happening.

Such anxiety springs up.

Suddenly, the pile fell and Ronald made his body stretch.

It was the bearers of bodies comparable to Minotaurs and Lizardmans who pushed the soil away and crawled out.

"... oh, hey"

I rang, but the man doesn't try to move on all fours.

"No, no, no, no, no."

"Oh, hey, you okay?

As Ronald approached in horror, the man moved.

The sound of a pakin sounded and something hit my cheek and fell to the ground.

When I looked at the ground reflexively, my fingers were dropping.

Frozen bodies break when treated roughly by hand.

Such knowledge passes the back of the brain.

"... Yu, Yu Bin, Yu Bin, Yu Bin"

The man takes the fallen finger and tries to put it back in position.

But my fingers don't stick no matter how many times I push them.

Naturally.

I don't need a doctor if I'm going to stick with it as much as I pushed it, and I don't need divine authority.

A man looks up.

My eyes are white and cloudy.

No, I don't mind my eyes being white and cloudy.

The problem is the throat.

There's a big hole in my throat.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no."

"Wait! You're confused! I'll get a doctor, so don't move!

Ronald retreated while controlling the man with his hands.

I'm not going to call a doctor.

I'm going home.

When I get home, I drink enough to take a bath and sleep until morning.

Still, if there's nothing I can do, I'll go to the temple.

Now! And I turned my heel back and kicked the ground with all my might.

"No, no, no, no, no!

"God! Let me go home!

My leg was ed within ten meters.

He fell unnecessarily and fell again trying to get up.

When I lowered my fearful gaze, I was missing a tip from my right leg thick crotch.

My feet are rolling nearby.

I don't know why.

"No, no, no!

Blood erupts, and severe pain rips the thoughts apart in thousands.

I acted accurately even as I screamed.

I removed my belt and tied the root of the wound.

"... no, no, no!

Slowly approaching as a man incites fear.

"Hih, no, no!

Ronald crawled on the ground and tried to escape.

But I can't get away with it.

A man was grabbing Ronald's ankle.

The man slammed Ronald to the ground as he shook him up.

The crushing sound of bones echoes from the inside.

It's bright red in front of me.

I can only feel the smell and taste of iron.

"No, no, no, no!

The man slammed Ronald to the ground again.

He is beaten to the ground many times, his bones crushed and his guts crushed.

This much power reminds me of piles and stones instead of grave markers.

Pile or just throw a stone and you'll be able to blow your legs off.

God, please let me die quickly, Ronald prayed.

Well, it didn't take long for the prayer to turn into a curse...

Chrono sits in the chair in the office and slowly rolls through the report.

The paper provides the number of crimes and their breakdown.

The number of crimes crawled after a sharp decline, with the breakdown showing the highest number of burglaries and the next highest number of injuries.

Residents of the Twelve Neighborhoods tend to have low psychological hurdles until they commit a crime.

Perhaps this is because the guards have been bought by criminals and criminal organisations and have missed out on crimes.

Change the way residents think.

Just thinking about how much effort you have to put into it annihilates me.

"... I hope the arena opens soon"

Chrono leaned against his back and sighed deeply.

Currently, the arena is in the midst of inviting wealthy aristocrats and merchants to wash out the problem.

Personally, I think we've had enough, but Nicole wants to make sure it's all right.

"Is this the stomping ground?

The invisible situation ahead reduces morale, but it is also dangerous to say that the present situation is at stake.

It's hard to stay nervous just because you're seeing the end of it.

If I make a mistake here, I will return to nothing that I have accumulated so far.

I wish I had an idea to stay nervous, but that's when I put my arms together, the sound of knocking on the door sounded.

"... go ahead"

It was Shilo who opened the door and came into the room.

I'm supposed to be off duty today, but is something wrong?

Shiro stopped a short distance from his desk and saluted Chrono.

"Is something wrong?

'... message, deposited. Meet me in Fifth Street.'

"Did he say anything else?

Shiro shook his head left and right.

I had a bad feeling.

It is also said that the guard commanders are not very fond of Chrono.

Calling on purpose must mean a situation where you want to borrow the cat's hand too.

"Well, I can't help thinking here"

Chrono stands up and weaves his cape.

Looking at Shilo, he was dripping his tail without force due to slight topping and subtraction.

I usually say I'll follow you as an escort, but I guess I have something else to say.

"Shiro, do you have something to worry about?

When Chrono asked, Shiro roared small.

"If you have something to worry about, don't hesitate to tell me. I don't want to discredit my residents for making mistakes here."

"... Snow" (... Guru)

Shiro roared small again.

I guess the fact that you spoke Snow's name worries you if it's a good imitation to sell your people to keep order.

"Shilo, it's an order. Say what you care."

"Snow, the smell of blood, do" (Kee-yu.)

Silo opened his mouth after shutting up for a while.

"It's hard to react."

"Meaning, Different"

I got stuck.

"Since when?

"Layla, The Day I Fall" (Guru)

So there was a stab wound, Krono nodded.

Johnny says Gina was scratched in the gut after being stabbed with a blade.

"... that was a breeze"

If you find out that your mother and admiring Leila are threatened by Gina, it's no wonder you're in harsh behavior.

I didn't want to be a tabernacle and didn't tell him what was going on besides Shilo and Hylo, and with the help of my adoptive father, I got behind it.

Thinking about what to do, I've stared with the kind of eyes Siro pleads with.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything wrong. It's the seed I sowed, and I'll harvest it properly."

Shiro exhaled as if relieved.

My men, who were moving to help Leila but didn't know what was going on, would think that Chrono did nothing.

And yet if I punish Snow for trying to solve my problems, I lose credibility.

As for the drop point, Chrono admitted to his mishandling and gave Snow a slight punishment... like imposing a week's caution.

Chrono took the shift table out of the drawer and sighed.

"Is Snow on day shift? I'll take care of it when I get back from the meeting."

"Me, my men, suppress"

Please, and Chrono slapped Silo on the shoulder.

When Chrono entered the Fifth Street stuffing...... extraordinary meeting room, the chief guard of the Fifth and Eleventh Streets was already in his seat.

There is no sign of the head of security in blocks I to IV.

This is because jurisdiction is divided between the old town and the new town.

When he got to the empty seat, the guard captain of the seventh block...... Farnos put his gaze around to confirm everyone's reaction.

Because he's the oldest, he often acts as a facilitator.

"... you've all gathered. We had an emergency meeting because a Fifth Street guard was killed by someone."

When Farnos told him to sigh, he breathed in surprise, except for Chrono and the chief guard of the Fifth Street.

The chief guard of Fifth Street is blushing his face.

I know how you feel.

Losing one's men is hard.

"... the body"

"Wait, I'll tell you"

The chief guard of Fifth Street put his hands together to offer prayers.

From anger at the killer, or the whiter your fingertips are, the more powerful you are.

"Dead guard...... Ronald's body was found in a cemetery in the north. He was crushing bones all over his body and blowing his right leg around his thighs"

I guess that was the limit.

"Damn, why did I have to die like this?"

The chief guard of Fifth Street covered his face.

"... a cemetery in the north"

Chrono shrugged small.

In the north cemetery, the man who killed Gina... buried Dek.

Dek isn't just Gina, she's murdered the women's pay in the tavern and has her neck snapped a thousand times.

I don't feel somewhat irrelevant.

"Marquis Elakis, is there anything you care about?

"The other day, I buried the killer of a hooker in a cemetery in the north."

Krono replied to Farnos.

"Are you telling me that the dead have come back to life and killed Ronald? Don't be ridiculous! They're killing my men! Think more seriously!

The chief guard in Fifth Street yelled at Krono.

"I'm serious."

"You're kidding me about thinking the body will come back to life!

When Krono argued, the chief guard of the Fifth Street further vandalized his voice.

I feel it's no surprise that the dead are brought back to life because God exists in this world.

Even the possibility of pretending to be dead cannot be denied.

"I'm sorry"

"... No, I'm sorry about this one. My men were murdered and I was frustrated."

You didn't think Krono would apologize, the chief of security in Fifth Street said in a weakened voice.

"You should think he was killed when he encountered grave vandalism"

When Farnos said quietly, the guard captains gave a close look to confusion.

Can you crush bones all over your body to rough graves?

I wonder why you sin in grave vandalism when you have all that power.

"The killer must be captured and sentenced to extreme imprisonment. I know it's tough, but to protect ourselves. I want you to do everything in your power to find the killer."

The guard commanders nodded quietly, and Chrono nodded late.

Guards at the forefront of policing have many enemies.

In order to protect yourself, your colleagues, and your family, you need to make the guards and their associates aware that they will be retaliated against if they do harm.

"Then dissolve!

When Farnos made the declaration, the guard commanders left the room silently.

Chrono and Farnos are the only ones left in the room.

"... was quite unexpected"

"What is it?

Farnos turned his gaze to Chrono.

"I thought the Marquis Elakis wasn't interested in this sort of thing"

"You can talk to me normally."

Is it an appeal that polite language is not a statement as a chief of security?

"Honestly, I didn't think Marquis Elakis was into this sort of thing. Well, I don't know if I'm gonna make a head-on statement that the dead are back."

……

"I'm not accusing you. That's barbaric...... oh now it's the Lou tribe. I understand Marquis Elakis' concerns."

Chrono opened his eyes gently.

I can move even if I suffer a wound that would make me unable to move if I had activated the engraving.

I didn't think Farnos knew that.

"What does Mr. Farnos think?

"I think it's ridiculous that a corpse should come back to life. Well, I found it ridiculous when the Lou clan grabbed me with a thousand chopped arms, or when they attacked me with their guts scattered."

Farnos had a cynical grin.

"If that's what you're thinking, wouldn't it have been nice to convince everyone?

"It doesn't mean it's ridiculous. If you look for the killer on the assumption that it's impossible, you'll be stuck right away."

Besides, Farnos punctuated the words.

"I need someone to be able to hit my anger when my people are killed. You can call it an easy enemy to imagine. Otherwise I can't stay motivated. For example…"

……

I thought I didn't have to think about it like that, but I don't talk about it.

"What would Marquis Elakis do if there was a report of upside-down, naked men dancing in circles?

"Are you kidding me with your meds? and rummage."

"Well, I think that's the way to handle it."

……

For some reason, my eyes were swimming.

Maybe he was expecting an answer like that: chase him away, grace him with change.

"The opinion of Marquis Elakis cannot be said to be realistic. That said, I don't think that's the kind of approach we need."

"I mean, you think it's okay to proceed with the search for the killer on the assumption that the dead are back?

Farnos put his hands together to hide his mouth.

"It's the right material. There are not so many criminal organizations that stand up and move like Nicole's. We're more accustomed to investigating criminal organizations and criminals who don't stand up and move."

"Okay. Now, the Knights of the Thirteenth Kingsguard will proceed with their investigation on the premise that the dead have been revived."

"I'm sorry."

"No, welcome."

Chrono bowed his head and left the stuffing behind.

Clono, who left the stuffing, headed to Crawford Mansion.

In front of Crawford Mansion, Johnny was cleaning his hands.

"Brother, what can I do for you?

"I'm here to talk to you about the big man Johnny killed."

You perceived the signs, Johnny didn't show a surprised bareback.

It's an incredible rate of growth to throw a dagger at Nege or kill Dek with one dagger.

"Chip, you talented man. I thought you were on my side, but you're a terrible betrayer."

"I don't really suddenly pound my tongue"

He doesn't seem very shocked for it.

"So here's the big guy thing."

"Copy that, Sz. But it's a bad idea to talk here, and I want to talk inside, ss."

Enter the mansion and move to the dining room.

Apparently, my adoptive father and Myra are away.

Maybe it's time to go back to the South Side, so I'm going to say hello.

When Chrono got to the table, Johnny sat face to face.

"Is something wrong, S.?

"I think I already know..."

"Oh, the murder of a guard in a cemetery."

It helps to talk fast, but how are we gathering information?

I just hope it's not an illegal means.

"I was wondering if I might have gotten a big man back."

"Isn't the idea too leapfrogging because the body's gone, sus?

Returned with a true face.

Speaking of what makes me angry, I'm never as angry as being preached reality by the inhabitants of the fantasy world.

"... have you ever noticed when you're fighting a big man?

"Uh-huh, that was a tough one to kill. Was tougher than a"

"Have you ever fought?

Unexpectedly, Johnny scratched his head in the light.

"I didn't fight to fight you, Sz. They gave me a knife and threw me into the Areos Mountains, sss. Listening, Tears, Talking, Tears."

You remember that time, Johnny lay down his face.

"Oh, dark sss. Dark squirrel. Eyes, he's watching from the dark squirrel! Somebody, somebody needs help, sss! He's coming, sss! In the morning, it's still ssss in the morning! Cliffs! Cliffs to One Chance Dibbs! The branches grabbed me! Hino, no, no, no, no! The branches are broken, sss! Brother, help me!

Immediately after scratching his head he had an untied grin as if the switch had been switched.

"Dear Teacher, I'm so glad you made me abandon my virginity"

"... you bastard"

Should I still say, Johnny gave a look like he was scared of something.

"Hey, what the fuck? What do you mean, kill him, sss? Is this what you mean by abandoning your virginity? You're a bandit, all right? It's not okay, sss! Hands off, hands off... Hino, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Suddenly, I drooled my head in a gut.

"It's okay, Death. Food chain no apex ni li televa, areos mountain harashi station des. Lu tribe no all san, totemo friendly death. Virgin Abandoned Terra Lete Happy Cedes"

"Johnny, hold on!

When Chrono rocked his shoulder, Johnny regained consciousness.

Apparently, he had a spectacular experience by the time he got stronger.

"Also, I think I had a seizure, sss"

"Seizures?"

Wouldn't that be a flashback?

However, it was pointed out.

I mean, I didn't want to open Pandora's box.

"Can't humans get something without some sacrifice?

Philosophical.

It's about you! and swallow the words that hung out.

"Let's get back to it, how was it hard to kill?

"There was speed for the figure, and it was pretty bleeding, but it worked fine, sss. I stabbed him in the neck because I had no choice."

Uh-huh, and Chrono groaned.

There was a scratch on Dek's neck... it was almost pierced, so maybe I should call it a hole...

If I can move even if I destroy my spine, I feel like I can crawl out of my grave and kill a guard.

"Did you get the trait?

"I only know as much as I was involved in building the name and the temple, sss."

"You're not even hooked up with the new aristocratic information network?"

I didn't come from a wooden crotch, and I think I know how I came to Empire City.

I had a bad feeling.

Returning to the Haunted Mansion, Shilo greeted me with a patter and a waving tail.

Looks like he got his men under control to see it from the atmosphere.

Master Chrono, I've been waiting for you.

"... sorry. Things have changed."

Krono explained the situation.

As the story progresses, Shilo's tail loses power.

The last one was drooling with Shobo ~ n.

"Dead man, will not rise"

"... Really?"

When Shilo denies me, I get anxious that I might have been wrong.

Maybe Farnos just took Chrono's decency into account.

Nor can we deny the possibility that they thought you were a motivated fool.

"Well, what do we do?

"Moves Immediately"

Shiro said in an attitude that he just didn't take for granted.

"Well, I am. The question is, how does it work?"

"Stink, chase"

I laugh unintentionally.

I was thinking about how many people would come to the investigation and how I should change my shift, but they overthought it.

My men would be confused if I did a normal investigation to move assuming the dead were resurrected.

"Okay, so let's go. Fortunately, there is time before Snow returns from his day shift. In the meantime, let's proceed with the investigation as far as we can."

'Okay. Hand over the matter of my men to Hylo' (Ur.)

I'll tell Leila about the murder, too.

Chrono removed the communication magic item from the pouch.

I feel swept by the situation, but I've never had complete control of the fight before.

"... I hope you're okay"

I sighed remembering that I had little experience getting through the fight safely.

"... a joint cemetery"

Chrono shrugged small and looked around.

The joint cemetery north of the imperial capital was dim and frozen.

That's not due to location, but to the brewing atmosphere of dead grass and decaying grave markers covering the ground.

The dead die a second time by being forgotten.

I don't know who said it first, but I think I'm shooting a target when I see a sight like being thrown out.

"A murder in a lonely cemetery? I hope the hockey mask killer comes out."

"... ho ho ho masuki? '(but ~?

The ground that had fallen... it was where I buried Dek... Shiro, who was crawling near him, turned around and leaned his neck wonderfully.

"No, about this one. Keep working."

"Okay."

When Chrono said, Ciro went back to work.

A floating young man is sacrificed when it's a splatter movie.

Couples who do naughty things, amefts, or play basketball have a high chance of feeding off killers.

If you've decided on a sports recommendation or you're renting a car from your father, it's out.

I'll be patient until the case is solved, and I'll squeeze my fist.

I think I'm thinking about not going down myself, but I want to do anything to reduce the likelihood of getting hurt at all.

When I was thinking about that, Shiro shook up in a freak.

Chrono was also caught and freaked out.

"What's wrong?

'... stinks' (...)

Shilo crawled down the ground, and the ground was blackened.

Perhaps Ronald was killed here.

Shiro looked up at Chrono.

"Dear Chrono, I wasn't wrong" (but)

"Look, you're right about me! The dead won't come back! You're alive!

"... Me, terrible thing, I said" (... KYU.)

"And Shiro doesn't have to apologize."

Siro said it with his moist eyes, so he rushes into follow-up.

"It's because of Shiro that the hypothesis has been proven, and shouldn't we be glad that we didn't have to make a detour?

"Me, I'll try."

Shiro nodded loudly and began to crawl on the ground again.

"... Isn't this settled sooner than I thought?

Chrono groans as he pursues Silo.

When the secret room murder happened, it was good for you.

The killer is in here! After declaring that, each and every suspect would also be tortured...... and would have been interrogated.

Shiro looked up when he stopped moving.

There stands a castle wall.

Apparently, the revived Dek climbed the walls.

"Did you climb?

Asked just in case, Shiro nodded with a strange face.

Johnny said it was hard to kill, but no matter what you think, it's beyond the level of hard to kill.

Snow was touring the twelfth block with his buddies.

Stare into an alley with a rotten odor and sigh small.

I wanted to return to Marquis Elakis territory as soon as possible.

There are no good memories in the slums, nor in the twelfth block.

No, I have too many bad memories.

Suppose, for example, there was a transparent sphere.

If you shake that in an ancient nail, stone and bag, you'll be scratched.

Slam and Twelfth Street are sacks, and the inhabitants are ancient nails and stone places.

If you don't want to be scratched, you just have to get rid of the ancient nails and stone places.

Suddenly, my vision wanders.

When I looked up, the big man...... the man who helped Gina fell.

The ground rocks at the same time as the landing.

Confused by the kind of shock that can be thrust up from the bottom.

The surrounding buildings are three stories tall.

The ground can't shake so hard that it fell from it.

It's too unnatural.

No, if it's unnatural, the big man himself was unnatural.

There's a hole in his throat, and he's running a crack all over his body, but he's moving flat.

"Flame bouncing!

Snow distanced himself from the big man and unleashed his magic.

I can't think of an answer.

Then you'd better concentrate on what's happening in front of you without thinking extra.

Countless flames thrust into a straight line, bouncing in front of the big man.

It's like being held back by an invisible wall.

It must be because of the attack.

The big man stepped out toward Snow.

Five infantry soldiers break right in.

He's got a spear, so he seemed to think the big man should be on guard.

My buddies are reliable.

The big man's body sinks in.

The next moment, he was accelerating like an unleashed arrow.

The infantry restarts the spear.

Instead of just sticking it out, he's contacting the ground with a stone poke and securing the spear like a grasping stick.

The big man rammed into the spear without slowing down.

Five spears broke at the same time, and the infantry was blown away.

An arrow stabbed him in the back and the big man stopped moving.

Of course, no archers can rest their hands here.

Arrows pierced him one after the other, and the big man was like a needle rat.

And the tenth arrow was played.

The arrow jumped straight up as if it had been held back by an invisible wall.

The big man's body sinks in again.

Snow almost kicked the ground with an eye.

Though I did once, I spread my arms and chased him away.

"Jeez, no! No, no, no, no!

"I'm not Gina! You killed Gina! Roaring, flaming, bouncing!

Stand as a whirlwind surrounds the big man, taking in more flames.

What emerged was a vortex of flames... the synthetic magic "Fire Whirlwind" created by Aridead and Deneb after trial and error.

It doesn't extend to advanced sorcery like blast dance, but it has power beyond intermediate boundaries.

At the next moment, Snow opened his eyes.

"Fire whirlwind" froze.

It can't be that the flames freeze.

"Fire Whirlwind" crumbles and ice fragments descend on Snow.

Cross your arms reflexively and immediately understand your own defects.

The big man was approaching.

The big man flashes his arm.

That alone blew Snow away.

The moment I was attacked, I felt like I heard a broken bone.

It is slammed against the wall and falls to the ground.

Heavy cough and spit out blood.

Big man slowly approaching.

"... yes, if you say so"

What way did Gina die? and Snow looked up at the big man.

Chrono flies over to the roof of the private house and transitions the engraving to dormancy.

The next moment, my body grew sharply heavy.

"And, Shilo, go down"

'... ok' (... but)

Shiro pointed his nose upwards as he descended from Chrono's back.

This is how I sense the smell of Dek drifting in the air.

The sense of smell of the beast man can be relied upon more than man-made sea tactics.

Most importantly, Shiro doesn't have the technique to land without stepping through the roof, so Chrono is moving on his back.

Suddenly, Shilo looks directly beside him.

At the end of his gaze, the flames were swirling.

"Fire whirlwind?

I don't think so, Chrono shook his head.

Fire whirlwinds are a natural phenomenon that occurs when a large-scale fire strikes.

It doesn't look like there's a massive fire going on, so you should think someone used witchcraft.

"What's going on?

Unexpectedly whine.

The flames turned into ice in an instant, shattering and scattering.

Immediately activate the engraving and fly from roof to roof in charge of the silo.

"Master Chrono, below! '(ugh!

"I know!

Jump off the roof.

Lower the silo at the same time as the landing and circle your gaze.

There was the appearance of my men and Dek.

Apparently, my men ran into Dek on patrol.

Dek grabbed Snow's neck and hung it high.

Immediately after Chrono ran out to help Snow, something went wrong.

Dek's leg broke down as if he couldn't stand his weight.

The anomaly continued further.

Both arms fell off their shoulders and a strong malodorous liquid poured out of the arms and leg sections.

The liquefaction proceeded rapidly and later only bone and skin remained.

"... what the hell?

Chrono slowed his gait and walked over to Snow to avoid stepping on the liquid.

Snow is stunned.

"Snow?"

"Uh, Master Chrono?

Calling, Snow blinked in wonder.

I feel uncomfortable reacting like I don't understand the situation.

"Are you okay?"

"Why are you here? I'm a slum... is that it? Was that Marquis Elakis territory? Oh, my God, I'm a soldier now."

Snow seems pretty confused about what they did.

You should change the day about Gina.

"Let's go back to the Mansion for once"

"Mansion?"

Snow's eyes move busily.

You look scared of something.

Was it even dug up in serious trauma after encountering Dek?

'Cause it's okay.

"Huh? I'm fine, right?

Shit, the story's not meshing.

Krono approached Snow with his arms spread out to show he had no hostility.

Suddenly, a spark scattered, something wrapped around the 'field' and snow wrapped around Chrono appeared only for a moment.

I get nauseous.

"Place" is an area where the laws of physics can be distorted by the will of the surgeon.

Rationally, they'll interfere with each other, and they'll rebel.

Then what is this nausea?

Snow is leaning down and breathing roughly and repeatedly.

Grali and rock.

The next moment I tried to hold him, the knife passed right in front of me.

Snow shook up the knife.

It is a gift of chance that has been avoided.

I'm not sure I'd avoid being told to do it again.

"Ouch!

When I wiped my jaw, the blood wet the back of my hand.

Apparently, we couldn't avoid the knife.

"Master Chrono! '(ugh!

"Shilo, don't move!

Exhale and stare at Snow.

I don't know if it's the 'place' that's wrapping the snow, but I'm pretty sure I'm on guard.

"Snow, calm down. I'm not gonna hurt you or anything."

"It's a lie! Say that and do something terrible to me!

Snow disappeared and the sound of a patsy was heard directly from the side.

I leap back to rely on my thoughts.

I don't even want to believe in myself, but I don't have anything else to rely on right now.

Snow flies straight from the side with a single hair.

I can slap him down, but Chrono hesitated, losing his chance.

But Snow doesn't imitate missed opportunities.

"Flamebouncing, flamebouncing, flamebouncing... Huh!

Release magic to keep standing, filling the path with flames.

Without flammable materials, the magic flames would quickly go out, but enough to create a gap.

Snow kicked the ground into a gap where Chrono was frightened.

I guess he's using some sort of technique.

It leaps slightly to the roof of a building that was nearby.

"Snow!"

"Disease dance!

Chrono followed Snow and kicked the ground, upset by a gust of wind blowing down from the top.

"Flame bouncing!

Flames pour down.

Chrono stepped up the 'field' to prevent the attack, but when the flames cleared, there was no sign of Snow there.

Chrono walks through a city stained with dusk.

Shiloh is ordered to lead his off-duty men to protect Snow.

"I fought a murderer who lived through mysterious art and succeeded in becoming powerless, but one of my men became confused under the influence of the art"

I squeal bossy while hiding my mouth with my right hand.

Will anyone be convinced by this excuse when Snow has hurt someone?

As a matter of fact, I might as well ask Nage to move in the direction of rubbing the case off.

Chrono enters the stuffing station and climbs the stairs.

When the door of the communication command room is opened, the gaze is concentrated.

Hand control the communications person who tried to stand up and walk over to Leila.

"Leila, did you find Snow?

"No, we're searching."

"Okay. I'll leave the command to Layla."

How can you not find Snow? And I lowered my back to the chair, wondering.

Given that Shilo relied on the smell drifting in the air to track Dek down, it seems impossible to shake off the tracking of the Beastman.

It's possible Snow knows how to stir up the sense of smell of the beast man, but if it could have been so easily stirred, military, police and drug detection dogs would never have been born in that world.

"How can you not find it?

"That's because she's locked in her own world."

I just asked myself, someone answers that.

When I looked at the voice, there was a young man with gray hair...... Nege Hiades and Verna stood.

"Master Chrono, don't get me wrong. I said I should knock, didn't I?

"You're a crisp betrayer."

"I'm not one of you."

Verna told me to throw up.

"... when"

Layla stares at Nage and Verna.

Apparently, he didn't feel any signs, and he's opening his eyes to surprise.

"Do you know anything about it?

"Actually, no!

Actually, no.

The door opened in momentum and was blown away.

A painful sound of vitane sounded.

"Even if my brother's pinch hasn't called me. Immediate sucks!

"... Johnny"

Is this guy really an amazing assassin? and Chrono looked down at Nege falling and lying on the floor.

"Oh, that? That's crazy, isn't it?

Nage stared flat at her hands as she woke up.

"Did you mess it up?

"How old are you?"

Verna said in a fed up tone.

If you believe the word that you are over fifty, it is not surprising that aging causes decay.

Perhaps the entire height of Nege has passed again, just as my adoptive father has.

"So, you know something?

"Actually... the killer known as Dek and Mr. Snow were trained in The Arm of Death."

Well, it's not my "death arm," Nege added with excuses.

"How do you know that?

"I thought I'd crush the competition early."

Are you saying that Dek and Snow crushed the 'Arm of Death' to which they belonged?

"There was so much disagreement that the constituents, who knew nothing, decided to keep it alive after monitoring it for a while, as you can see"

Nege sighed small.

"Don't you know anything?

"I can't recommend brainwashing with drugs. If I just lose my memory, I still can't use it as a pawn if I lose my judgment."

As Chrono inquired, Nege glanced lightly over his shoulder.

"What brought Dek back to life?

"Thanks to the art of manipulating magic to generate areas where your will takes precedence. Well, if you say it generates a 'place' without the support of engraving...... what is it? What kind of face chewed up that bitter bug?

"No, 'cause when such a convenient technique comes out, you say you don't have my place in stamping with your life on the line"

"No, no, that's not convenient! Even I accidentally put my life on hold!

Dropping his shoulder, Verna raised her voice of protest.

"Have you ever been exposed to severe pain that could be insane?

"Yes, no, that's not true."

Chrono sighed deeply.

"Forget how Marquis Elakis feels, this technology is the art of creating a world just for himself..."

"Am I? Did I teach you such great skill?

Now he looked like Nege chewed up a bitter bug.

"What, that face? I've only been told of technology to transcend human beings from the East, right? He didn't even tell me his name."

"I think it's too accidental"

"You didn't tell me anything, so you have no choice!

As Chrono penetrated, Verna vandalized her voice.

The guy who cheated me has decided the worst, but I think we should be a little more careful.

"... Dear Chrono"

"Sorry, Leila"

Chrono corrected his residence and stared at Nege.

"I mean, you think Dek came back to life because of that technique?

"Yeah, you can interpret me that way. And he died because Mr. Snow erased the realm."

You mean the superior compatibility of "The Place," Krono stroked his belly remembering that he had been skewered in the Holy Argo Kingdom.

You won't die from a fatal injury.

It would also be easy to avoid eliminating or spreading body odors if such an unscrupulous technique could be achieved.

"When I approached Snow, the spark scattered?

"That's what kept Marquis Elakis on guard. Nobody goes through their house with someone who doesn't know their identity, do they?

"... Snow should have had a good relationship with Master Chrono?

Leila said hesitantly.

"I guess I have my memory back. Even when it comes to training, it's a convenient task to make handkerchiefs. If I remember that, I'm determined to be incredible to others."

……

Leila stared at Nege.

Was it from the burden of not saying anything that I put Snow down and enlisted in the army?

"What do you want to do?

"Protects Snow"

When Chrono responded instantly, Nege opened his eyes unexpectedly.

"They might think you're the enemy, right?

'Cause I'm an important man.'

If you are a stranger, adopt safety measures, but if they are subordinates, you need to reach the limit… in some cases, you need to cross the limit.

"Really? If you don't mind, I'll work with you, okay?

"... thank you"

Chrono lowered his head gently.

Snow woke up in the garbage.

Thoughts are frigid as if they are floating in heat.

I can't tell the difference between dreams and reality.

I was having a happy dream.

I dream of working with your mother.

It's a dream, so naturally, but the people who came out to dream were sweet.

Even though that's impossible, he pushes the garbage away and crawls out of the ground.

There are plenty of hiding places in the city.

Thin gaps between buildings, abandoned houses, garbage dumps in alleys, stables, side ditches… digging holes in the ground like this one would be enough shelter to cover the garbage.

I can't lurk for long, but I can buy enough time to make you give up amateurs and guards.

Except for the criminal organization.

They are bound by Fujiko.

When I imitate him like he crushes his face, he persists in chasing me.

Only then can they beat me up early.

It doesn't make a difference to be beaten early or late, but the number and force applied and subtracted are different.

Most of all, if you just tend to be like that and the other bug is not in a good place, you will be in terrible shape, and if you have a bad beating, you will die.

That's how we live in the world.

Your mother went to the army by herself.

Abandoned.

I know it's out of line to complain.

Everyone is cute about themselves, and if they reach out to others, they fall together.

However, I want to complain about one of the things I do when I get violent, when I'm hungry, when I help the store but I don't get the money I promised, and when I do something unpleasant and make money.

"... the moon"

I look up at the full moon and squeal.

It seems to have been a night while I was lurking in the hole.

Hold your mouth and cough.

When I let go of my hand, my palm was stained bright red.

Wipe the blood with your uniform in a hurry.

My whole body is hot.

My heart is buzzing.

"... Scary"

It's important to spit blood.

When did you get hurt like this?

If I don't go to the hospital, I might die.

There must be an enemy in the wounded body.

I can't go to the hospital in peace unless I kill my enemies.

Let's think about that.

After all, there is no longer a distinction between dreams and reality.

There's no way a slum dweller can go to the hospital.

Who am I supposed to kill? and exhale the iron-smelling breath and think of the presence of a certain person.

What was the name?

I only remember the appearance vaguely.

Well, if you kill them from one end of the spectrum, you won't have a problem.

"I see you've been hiding in a hole you've dug. It should be reasonable and hassle free, sss."

You just followed me, didn't you?

When I saw the voice, a man and a woman approached me.

"Who?"

"Not really because I haven't seen you in a long time!

A man screams.

I also feel like I look familiar if you ask me, but I'm forgetting, so I guess that means I was dating to that extent.

"Flame bouncing!

"Suddenly it's ssss!

Release the sorcery, but the man approached with repeated sidesteps.

By the time I realized it, I had been packed with mistakes.

"Teeth eating and tying, sss!

A man waves his fist down.

Snow kicks gently on the ground.

Dance the universe, kick the walls, and land on the roof of the building opposite you.

"You got away with it!

"Unexpected to be able to jump so high, ssss!

A woman dances the universe.

Apparently, this woman has the same skills as herself.

He's not used to it. It's close to floating.

Naturally, I don't have to wait for them.

"Flame bouncing!

"Demon Bullet!

Voices overlap.

Woman's sorcery...... countless pieces of crimson debris unleashed intercept the flames.

At the moment of contact, the flames explode and swell.

It's junior magic called demon bullets.

Magic that releases rubble of magic, but there are many derivative techniques.

Most of all, few people prefer to wear them because of their short range and the lack of secondary effects.

"How about my magic!

The woman proudly breasted as she landed on the roof.

Snow revamps his reputation for demon bullets in his mind.

Conversely, a woman's rating drops.

I shouldn't have used a demon bullet here.

Because if I hadn't used it to the end, I might have created a deadly gap.

"Don't run away!

When Snow turned his back and ran out, the woman followed him.

Nothing needs to be fought from the front.

All you have to do is run around and finish the butt.

"Demon Bullet!

A woman unleashes sorcery, but crimson debris cuts the sky in vain.

He's shooting while he's running.

I don't want an exact sniper.

The opponent who is stepping on the number of places will also be able to use magic to restrain him and direct Snow wherever he wants.

But I can't feel that willingness from a woman.

Honestly, he just looks like he's acting on the go.

Try to fall in and kick the edge of the roof.

My body accelerates gnarly.

"Flame bouncing!

Snow flew over to the building next door and unleashed his magic as he turned around.

The woman is floating in the universe.

You didn't think you'd be attacked, it was an arc-drawing orbit.

"To, the ceremonial demon bullet!

A woman hastily unleashes sorcery, but I have to say she's misjudged.

The flames explode and swell, blocking a woman's sight.

I was going to finish where the butter was, but I could make a corner, a gap.

I don't have any hands I can't attack.

"Wind Blade Ran......!

"I won't let you!

A man jumped straight out of the side on the verge of unleashing sorcery.

How did you pack the distance so far?

You can't be unaware of foreign body approaching if it's in its current state.

Snow took a decent man's kick and blew it off.

I perceive multiple signs and narrow my eyes.

Then, a shadow was approaching the roof telling.

Were these two men in a quarrel?

No, not if you're thinking about it.

You should run before they siege you.

The next moment I kicked the roof, I felt signs.

Looking up, there was a woman.

"Eat your teeth and tie them up!

Snow ate and tied his teeth and fortified his magic with a willingness to reject.

"The wanton demon bullet!

"... Huh!

The impact burst, slammed straight to the ground.

When I woke up coughing hard, it was a trail.

The flash blinks overhead and Snow is tapped to the ground.

I wake my body up coughing, and I make my gaze circle, but the three sides are blocked by the building.

"... the wall."

When Layla, who was next door, signals, his men jump out of a narrow alley and block the road with a board.

The barricade is complete.

I was anxious to get Verna and Johnny into the operation, but they both drove Snow to the tail.

"... you made it."

Chrono laughed bitterly remembering when he set up the operation.

The operation was decided smoothly, but it took me a while to decide on the role.

No, should I say it took me a while to convince Leila, Shilo, Hylo.

Leila, Shilo and Hylo pushed Nege to the chaser, but Chrono pushed Verna and Johnny.

I don't trust Nege anymore, even though I borrow personnel for rooting for each side and backing up the pushers.

If the damage is done to ourselves, we'll cut Snow off easily.

I couldn't dispel that suspicion.

Nege's values cannot be denied, nor can they be condemned.

Because even Chrono prioritizes his own people if it comes to a phase where he has to choose between himself and someone else's.

You cannot put an untrustworthy opponent at the core of the operation.

On the contrary, I thought Verna and Johnny would stick to it even if something unexpected happened.

"Again, it would be better if I persuaded..."

"That's where we discussed it."

Chrono activated the engraving.

The luminous traces of pitch-black colour the whole body.

With engraving, you can withstand Snow's attack somewhat.

"Leila came after I couldn't move."

"... Yes"

Leila nodded quietly.

Maybe he feels he's being tried.

I didn't mean to, but if I can't do my part at all, I also think it would be better if you worked as a civilian.

Chrono removed his sword belt and gently placed it on the ground.

Fear of death is hard to contain even when stepping on the number of places.

Still, it's made extraordinary progress compared to when we were in the first place.

Because I couldn't even pull out my sword back then.

I approach Snow with that in mind.

Snow knelt on the spot and pulled out the knife to intimidate him.

"Stay away!

"I'm here to protect you. I left my weapon in that evidence."

Chrono spread his arms and appealed to him not to have a weapon.

"Protection is a lie! Say that and do something terrible to me!

"That's awful."

Chrono exhaled small.

My chest ached just to imagine what terrible things Snow had done.

"Please, trust me."

"I don't like it! I know! I know!

Snow vandalized his voice and wielded a knife.

I swung the knife for a while, tired, and drooled my arms without help.

Sparks scatter patchy but seem less resistant than evening contact.

"... throw me out anyway"

Snow drowned his head when he said in a crying voice.

"I won't abandon you."

"Why?"

"... it"

I was questioned and stuck in words.

Because I'm a valued employee.

I'm not lying.

I'm not lying......

Bachi! I heard a loud noise.

"After all, I can't believe it!

Snow sticks out the knife and Chrono twists his body aggressively.

They reach out and play to take the knife away.

It's a shock as if a firecracker exploded in your hand.

My hands are paralyzed.

No trauma, so paralysis would be temporary.

You know, unilaterally bounced, and Chrono poisons in his mind.

"Stop it!

"Shut up! Leave me alone!

The sound of Don! sounds from underfoot.

When he noticed, Snow was sticking a knife up the side of Chrono.

The moment I understood I was stabbed, I developed heat on my flank.

Fever replaces severe pain and hits the brain directly.

Snow scratches the knife.

"Demon Bullet!

Crimson debris poured down and Snow jumped back in a hurry.

Chrono prevented the crimson debris in the 'field', but it tickles in front of him because of the stabbing.

"Brother, are you okay, sss! You don't look all right, bitch!

Chrono passed out listening to one of Johnny's comic talents.

The silver light flashes and the metal bumps together sound.

The bright red light bursts and the anger flies.

Heavy pain crawled up from his flank and Chrono remembered Snow's failure to persuade him.

How could I have gotten stuck in words?

Snow is an important subordinate.

No, not a single subordinate that's not important.

Still think we'll make it? and Chrono woke up his body.

"... if you'd left it to me, I wouldn't have had to stab you"

"Damn, it was after hell"

"That's a lot of dialogue"

When Chrono threw up, Nege had a cramped grin.

"What about Leila?

"I'm doing great."

My eyes are glowing because of the bleeding.

When I narrowed my eyes, Leila fought with a sharp eye... only Verna, Johnny and Snow fought, but she was staring...

Slightly raising his gaze, Nege's men stood on the edge of the roof.

Apparently, Layla is going to block the escape route and drain Snow.

"Unteachable, tight squirrel! 3D is something!

"If you have time to be foolish, keep attacking! I'll be pushed out by myself!

Johnny cries and Verna screams.

Snow is flirting with the two of us.

It uses a building that blocks the three sides to move in 3D.

Because of his poor agility, Verna can't seem to take the same methods of warfare.

Chrono rises in pain wondering if Rio would have helped.

You perceived the signs, Leila looks back and opens her eyes as surprised.

"Master Chrono, the doctor will be here shortly. So please don't move."

Please rest.

Is it that deep, Chrono looked down at his body and rushed off his gaze.

Better not look.

If I see it, I'm going to be unable to move.

"I haven't told you what I really mean yet."

Chrono exhaled his iron-smelling breath and stared at Snow.

"Johnny, Verna, back off!

"Okay, sss!

"Fit it! I don't like being stabbed for not getting the right time!

Johnny and Verna left Snow at the same time.

Still, I wonder what logic Johnny was up against Snow.

Snow, stop it now.

"Ugh, shut up! Enemy kills! If you don't kill me, I'm gonna be horrible!

Krono walks over to Snow with his arms wide open, just like he did earlier.

"I'm not the enemy! I wouldn't even do anything terrible to Snow!

"It's a lie! If you don't kill me, if you don't kill me, it's all gone!

Oh, and Chrono leaked his voice.

I'm sure that's what the world is like for Snow.

"So, kill it! Kill him!

Suddenly, Snow disappears.

"Brother! Neck!

Hear Johnny's voice and tilt his neck.

My shoulders burn and my blood erupts.

Looking back, there's no sign of Snow there.

Patrol your gaze and discover the snow sticking against the wall.

Snow kicks the wall.

The other shoulder burns.

I rely on the slightest noise to follow Snow, but I can't capture him.

"Brother, I'll help you right away, sss!

"Don't come, Johnny!

Though I screamed, I can't afford to see Johnny.

"Don't die! Don't die!

"... Huh!

Blood erupts every time something like Snow passes by.

It's like we're trapped in a cage.

My vision tickles.

My whole body is hot.

"Don't die!

"Brother! Front ssss!

Activate the engraving and enhance the 'field' to its maximum.

A fierce spark scatters and Snow shows up.

Grabbing his shoulder, Snow looked up at Chrono with his moist eyes.

"Ha, let go!

"Demon Bullet!

The next moment Snow shook up the knife, the crimson debris snapped the blade from half.

Verna unleashed the magic.

"Let go, let go, let go!

Snow cries.

But he hasn't abandoned his will to resist, and the spark is scattered patchy.

"... I am"

Unexpectedly the force fell out of his leg, and Chrono knelt on the spot to lean against Snow.

"I don't like it."

"Huh?"

Snow opened his eyes to surprise.

"I don't want Snow to kill people."

"... Huh!

Krono is a commander, and Snow is a soldier.

I think I'm conflicted myself.

"Because I..."

"Still, I don't like it"

I don't want kids like Snow to kill people.

I don't want you to be stained with values that seem natural to hurt others.

It's paradoxical and hypocritical.

But it's a true feeling.

He stroked Snow's head and fell to the ground.

"Master Chrono?

Looking up, Snow looked like he was still going to cry.

When I woke up, it was the mansion bedroom.

My body is lazy and my head is boggly.

Move your gaze only to see what's going on around you.

A woman sat beside the bed.

I tend to drool and feel like I'm sleeping somewhere.

The face is child-faced, but the limb wrapped in an unadorned robe was meaty.

"Oh, you woke up, didn't you?

The woman opened her mouth when she held her hands together in front of her chest.

"What about you?

"I'm late for my application. My name is Nam Corne and I'm the head of the Tenth Kingsguard Knights."

Excuse me, and the woman...... Nam Corne embarked on herself.

My chest shakes.

You realize you're looking at your chest, touching Chrono's forehead with a soft grin.

"You seem to have a little fever. I'd like to lower my fever with Kamikaze..."

Nam frowned sorry.

"It's enough that you healed my wound. If you ask too much, God won't be funny either."

"You say funny things."

Nam sat in the chair and laughed couscous.

However, my eyes are not laughing.

I look at Chrono with a worthy eye.

"I think it's okay now, but please don't push me too hard"

Nam got up slowly.

My chest shook once again because I leaned forward slightly and stood up.

Aren't you up to something?

I guess that's what makes me feel that way because Chrono's heart is dirty.

"I'll come back tomorrow, but call me if you need anything"

That's what I said, and Nam left the bedroom.

"... go to sleep"

When I closed my eyes, I heard a noise called Ki.

I thought Nam was back, and I opened my eyes.

Then Snow was staring at Chrono from the gap in the door.

"Master Chrono, were you asleep?

"Is Snow okay?

Yeah! and Snow nodded fine and came into the bedroom.

I wonder if it is problematic not to detain him, even though he did not decide to respond after protection.

Such a question only plunders the back of your brain for a moment.

Snow stood by the bed and leaned over with regret.

"Dear Chrono, I'm sorry"

"It's a hard spot for a commander not to do it with words of apology."

Chrono smiled bitterly.

"Ouch?"

"lazier than to say"

Nam said something that could lower his fever, but he doesn't want to rely on Kamikaze to reduce his life expectancy.

Snow spanned Chrono as he went up to bed.

"Why are you crossing?

"Master Chrono can be polite sometimes."

Snow leaned his neck wonderfully.

"Excuse me. I'm pretty tired, so could you give me a break?

Che, and Snow tongued adorably and went down from Chrono.

"When would it be good?

"Please don't do this for a while"

Snow pointed his lips dissatisfied.

"Well, no. I don't want to run away."

Sue and Eryl's figure plundered the back of her brain, but Chrono didn't say anything.

"Bye, Master Chrono"

"Good night."

Close your eyes after you see Snow leave the bedroom.

It's going to be awesome when I get back to Marquis Elakis territory, but I decided not to think about it.
