Lesson 8: Rainy Weather Decisions

The sky pattern finally began to get suspicious, and the people crossing the street were not in sight about the surroundings or anything, trying to run errands around the boulevard as if it were a fire place, and at last the carriage could not walk a single step off the spot.

"Whoa, how long have you been mottled!

And it came to pass, when a short-minded servant came out of the window and yelled at him, that he bowed his head in a feeble manner.

"... I'm sorry. There were so many people out there, I couldn't get any movement. - Um, I was wondering if it would be quicker to go down the back road..."

A slightly tongue-in-cheek attendant said, "What do you want to do?" He asked Levan.

"There is no other way. You can't be late any more. - Take the back road."

And he said unto him through the window, Heh. It's just a bit of a bad road, so I think it rocks somewhat. Hold on tight, "he replied.

- I guess I had my eye on it originally. Aiming for moments of interruption of the human wave, he bent the carriage almost to 90 degrees and went into a narrow back road.

"Oops..."

A basket of vines - the luggage I had for a long time before I boarded the carriage - that I had at the feet of 'Chibi Scarlet Snow' on that clap nearly slipped through the carriage floor.

Scarlet Snow hastily tries to hold down her handshake without thinking about her current body size, and vice versa, swinging at its weight and about to roll with her.

"-Oops."

Levan holds it up on his knees with both hands, one basket at a time. Because of the doll, there is no sweet body odor, but instead the smell of perfume tickles my nose.

"Hey, thanks. Thank you."

Scarlet Snow laughs slightly innocently at.

Scarlet Snow's own grin overlapped that smile, and for some reason her chest beat loudly once.

Even though I feel subtle guilt about it, I ask by making an attitude as usual all the time.

"Yes, no, I don't care. What is it, this package?

In a car that rocks quite a bit, as you say, because the road is narrow and unpaved compared to the front street.

Levan twisted his neck feeling embarrassed by the raw and warm gaze around him, as he was supposed to carry the Scarlet Snow doll in so that it didn't fall as a result.

"This? I recently started keeping a pet, Sin."

When I opened the lid on one side of the basket as I said it, a brown animal came out of it.

"... do you dislike it"

The animal - Levan, the young head of the lion clan, half-eyed when he saw the male of a child lion who still seemed to be a child.

"No, it doesn't mean anything deep, but she's pretty smart, this kid. - Hey, hands."

The little lion, who looked frigidly at Momiji's hand like the Scarlet Snow doll he had been offered, chewed into his hand and spit it out peppery when he knew he couldn't eat it.

"... wow, you look retarded though"

"No, no, this is where Sin is awesome, this ad hoc thing that can instantly turn into a mess! This is exactly how clever you are not to allow any other followers!

I don't know, everyone in the car thought it was just stupid, but there was no one to speak to wisely.

And, at that time, the carriage suddenly pulled over, and whoops, the attendants jumped out of their seats, hitting each other in a narrow car, hitting the front seat, moaning at the pain.

Levan was also pulled by inertia and his hips floated, but he was able to stick his legs together and somehow protect his body and one and one of his arms.

"What are you doing -"

An attendant, who had yelled at you earlier, frowned at the pain and yelled at you again with his face out the window.

"Excuse me. There was a pedestrian standing in the middle of the road. - Hey, get out of the way!

I heard the anger of your Lord.

"... a pedestrian?

Scarlet Snow's, incisive voice echoed from within his arms in response to the word.

"Is that a man with dark hair and thin eyes?

"What? Oh, yeah..."

Scarlet Snow opened her eyes wide, responding to an attendant whose face was out of the window.

"Run! If you don't dump the carriage right away and run, you will die!!

For a moment, a desperate cry clings to the inside of the car, and everyone is taken aback and looks at each other.

"- Um, what's that..."

On behalf of everyone who can't keep up with the situation, Scarlet Snow stares back at Levan overlapping questions - and with a face stained with despair.

"... no. I can't make it anymore..."

Its arrow tip, the carriage door, which tried to question Scarlet Snow again biting her lips, was opened unconstructively at the same time as it was knocked lightly from the outside.

"Nan Yan Su ~. It's an unpleasant day, I'm finally starting to come down"

With that said and paying off the rain grains on his body, a young man dressed as a pedestrian peered his face through the carriage door with the ease of entering even the house he knew.

It would be a human race. The strangely inexistent young man, who seemed unrememorable to meet and converse, lifted the hat he was wearing lightly, glancing at the unexpected intruder in the car.

"I'm sorry to bother you on my own. I asked for you at work today."

"What, you...?

"... Shadow Lang."

The young man - Shadow Lang saw "Chibi Scarlet Snow" held by Levan and opened his thin eyes gently.

"Hey, is that your daughter? Something, perhaps, cute - no, no, it's usually the cutest, but is it Imechen?

"... do you know him?

He's the assassin I told you about.

"Become -!?"

Shadowloon nodded in front of the faint one.

"None of them. The main business is a merchant who can sing and dance and paint betta, but he also does assassins for the side business. I'm working part-time today, and I think we're having a short relationship, thank you all."

Come on! - Feeling instinctive fear, Levan aggressively took Scarlet Snow (+ Child Lion) and, in the form of a body hit from his back, broke the door on the other side and jumped outside the carriage.

It was at the edge of my sight that my lord was falling on the soaked ground for a moment - a moment, the carriage splashed apart from the inside... needless to say, the passengers who were inside followed the same fate, and a red blood splash blossomed for a moment in the rain that descended.

"Watch out for yarns and needles!

Without time to grieve, Scarlet Snow's attention flew, staring all the way into his eyes, he could barely see a few things flying through the air like diagonal lines, toward this one.

"-Come on."

Somehow, behind his back, the stone walls of the private house were completely cut off and collapsed.

"Lady, please be the rose in your hand. - And it shouldn't rain after all. The track of the steel thread is found out."

Shadow Lang spilled his stupidity as he let himself unfold steel threads much thinner than his hair.

As a circle is drawn around Shadow Lang, the rain grain is slashed in the air and the steel thread floats to the shape of an arc only for a moment, but too soon. It was a terrible attack that I managed to react to because it was Levan.

"Well, on the contrary, the needle seemed to stand out in the rain grain."

"... Gu"

In response to that word, Levan pulled together several needles that had been stabbed in his left shoulder.

My body feels hot and paralyzed. Definitely would have been poisoned.

"!! Hey - I don't care about us, just run!

"No, I don't think so."

I noticed all the time, there was Shadowloon right in front of me. A dagger is gripped in its right hand and the cut-top orientation is directed straight at Levan's heart.

"If you want, if you want"

The dagger is swinging through lightly, on the verge of...

"Shinya!"

In the form of responding to the screams of scarlet snow, the little lion in its arms growled - and at the same time emitted a rainbow light.

"Hey, what the hell?!"

Aggressively distanced with backsteps, in front of a shadow man with his eyes covered, the bright light disappeared - and Levan and the Scarlet Snow dolls, who were grumbling, disappeared like smoke.

"Transfer stone? No, that should only work with players.... I don't know what you did, but it's definitely your daughter's fault."

Then I looked at the tip of the bloody dagger and sighed.

"Is there a response that put a deep burden on you, the poison is spinning, but life and death are unknown because there are no bodies? This is gonna piss me off."

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

It seemed like a little forest or forest there.

Levan blurred her eyes open to the shimmering feeling of licking her cheeks and the raw, warm liquid unlike the rain, as she buried herself inside.

A little lion sits in front of him, whom Scarlet Snow called "Sin."

Apparently, this kid was licking his own cheek.

"... helped...?

I try to wake up my body, but I can't help my body because of the poison.

"... no, can't you even say it helped"

Then, uh, I noticed that 'Chibi Scarlet Snow' was in my arm.

"Your Majesty... since then, do you know what has happened...?

But 'Chibi Scarlet Snow' literally didn't even move like a doll.

Even after waiting a while, Levan sighed, making sure there was no response, even if it was sloppy.

"No... you're isolated and helpless..."

My eyelids are rapidly getting heavier because of the thread of tension cut.

Son Lion roared in haste, trying to wake him up, but no matter how hard he tried, he was held back, and for a moment when he collapsed, I felt like I saw a light illuminating this one.
