Legend

Shin, and the surroundings are filled with silence.

All you hear is the sound of the wind and the sounds of beasts and birds coming from the woods.

Silence is accompanied by heightened tension around us.

Most of all, only those on the Leiburrina side are nervous, and Ray doesn't look nervous at all.

Even Lutus, who asked that Ray what he would do with those in front of him, did not seem so nervous.

"Right..."

Asked what to do with the people in front of him, Lutus gets stuck in words.

Until yesterday... No, I would have thought that if it was Lutus' position until a few hours ago, as a member of Jaya, I wouldn't mind killing him because of the enemy's hand.

But not now.

I don't belong to Jaya anymore than I've decided there won't be if I follow an organization called Jaya.

Precisely because I didn't say anything to my father who leads Jaya when he comes out of Jaya, it's possible that Jaya still judges Lutus to be a Jaya person.

(I'm pretty sure it's the quickest way to kill you here. But that would be an act in favour of Jaya. Then why don't we let these guys get away and bump into Jaya?... but then the problem is with Ray)

The fact that Lutus is acting with Ray is already well seen by the people in front of him.

I mean, I'm pretty sure if you let him get away with it, he'll let you know about it up there.

Rajalas and his surroundings could have tried to hide it for their own pride, but the soldiers would need to report it to their bosses more than they are here for work.

If even the soldiers tried to hide the situation, sometimes the case of the amputation of the right arm, which was borne by Rajalus and his surroundings, could not be explained.

(I mean, whether or not to let them get away with being ready for danger...... just well, make it a jar. Make it a Labourina country, if it stays like this, it will definitely be over, so it might be too much to worry about)

Lutus' expectations are never out of touch.

Hands on the Sovereign Nation, the Kingdom of Mireana, and even more so it has been exposed, besides the relationship between the State of Labourina and Jaya has already been revealed.

No matter how optimistic you think about it, not very much, but both the country of Labourina and Jaya remain so...... it is unlikely that the situation will continue to flourish as it is today.

If so, isn't there a particular need to do something about the person in front of you... No, as a loan to Ningro Labourina, it would ultimately be better to let him go home as a man?

Yes, Lutus thinks.

Most of all, hundreds of soldiers have almost been wiped out… some have been ordered to die, but still more or less injured, and some of them have suffered mental injuries, as they were previously stunned in front of Lutus.

Though I didn't think I'd do a thankful imitation of the Lutus and the others who did all that damage.

"Well, you are. Why don't you just leave me alone?

'Huh?'

The same voice comes out of the mouths of those other than Ray, who were on the spot, in the half-throated words of Lutus.

No way, because I didn't think this would be missed lightly.

If it were those here who knew the circumstances to some extent, Lutus would have thought to pull the information out as well.

But I'm actually here because I don't know anything… perhaps the ones who were sent here as abandoned pawns.

(Well, if you do poorly, you're going to fight the giants, so I don't think you're going to send a competent guy. No, there's no way you can beat nearly a thousand giants in that number.... Was troop dispatch originally premised on total annihilation? If so, could it be…)

Fu and Lutus came up with the idea that the total annihilation of Rajalas' troops here would make Jaya a complete enemy.

And didn't you try to create a common enemy against the diplomats of the Kingdom of Mireana who came about Jaya? That's what I meant.

If we have a common enemy, we may be able to get along with each other, even if we have a lot to say… or if we don't get along, if we show a cooperative attitude in the fight against Jaya, there is a chance that this one will work out.

Even if someone thought so, it wasn't strange.

(I see. If that's the case, you can also see how hastily we've come to war. Failed and originally...... no, was Ning Luo hoped to fail)

Somehow he looked behind this circumstance, Lutus eventually opens his mouth slowly.

"Go. I'm not going to do anything to you guys. You just have to go back and explain this one."

It was not the surroundings of Rajaras that first questioned the words out of Lutus' mouth… but the soldiers of that escort.

Why are we freeing ourselves so lightly? And I had that question.

If we kill all of ourselves here, it will be too late for the military... to know this one thing about the country.

If so, why are we freeing ourselves up here?

It wasn't strange to have such questions.

(Something's wrong)

I think so, but I don't know what's wrong.

But even though I thought it was strange, I was certain that I would suffer terrible consequences if I stayed here and definitely died or didn't go that far.

I don't know what the reason is more than that, but there's no mistake in the result that it's best to just walk away from this place.

"Okay. Now, if you'll excuse us."

That's what I told Lutus, soldier.

But naturally, if a soldier says something like that here, there will also be a rebellion.

"A soldier's affair dictates what's on its own!

"You know what you're talking about!

"You mean in civilian minutes, you decide what we're going to do? You know what happens later, don't you?

It was only natural that such dissatisfaction would arise from the surroundings of Rajaras.

Even in the surroundings, it is definitely the blood muscle of the nobility.

They complain about why they must obey the instructions of a soldier.

Until a few seconds ago, Lutus gives a frightened look to such an attitude as if he had forgotten lightly that he was frightened by Ray's presence.

Ray was also frightened, but he never gave it an obvious look like Lutus.

Even Lutus, who is supposed to make expressions from time to time, probably had a frightening look on his face, but Ray is not the first person to see these aristocrats, let alone uncommon.

More than ever before, nobility sees with its eyes as if the word selfish has taken shape as it is.

But just because you're used to seeing it doesn't mean you can be tolerant.

Ray waves a death-size at this sight as he looks around Rajaras cursing the soldiers with filth.

A sharp blow, as if even the air were to slash and tear.

The surroundings of Rajaras, naturally, must have heard the noise.

If you heard that sound like you panicked...... look at Ray.

Ray smiled small when he understood that his gaze had gathered on him.

Ray didn't even know what the Rajaras' surroundings found in that laugh.

But those who see the grin get cold spines.

"Or we're going home! We must report this situation in a hurry!

Instead of expressing withdrawal or escape, he said he was leaving the scene to report the status quo.

Others agree with the surrounding words.

He was afraid of Ray, who wags his blade so easily against a nobleman who should be honored if he were.

... Most of all, Ray has waved his blade relentlessly against the nobility of the kingdom of Mireana, not the nobility of a small country like the Labourinas.

There was no option for Ray to do anything to help those in front of him.

When one returns to the report… more precisely if he decides to escape, the later is early.

When he commands the soldier to bring Rajalus, who is losing his right arm, and his surroundings, he hastily follows the scene.

Run out towards the carriage a little further away.

Fortunately, he had not yet escaped after seeing a series of disturbances, and Rajaras, his surroundings, and his escorts, each boarded several carriages, immediately walked away from the scene.

Normally I despised the soldiers of the escort as civilians and also hated breathing air with them... now, only at this time, would it have been a priority for the escort to be closer to me than that.

"... well, if you don't want it, I'll take it"

Naturally, the kind of tent set up here remains more than a hurry to escape the scene.

Its tent, like new, is a high quality substitute there, even from Ray's eyes, if you think of it as quality.

In fact, since Rajaras was entrusted with the command of the troops in this case, and the tent was prepared until he could not do it for the sake of its glory, it was only natural that it was of a fairly high quality.

Most of all, I am an adventurer in the guilds of the border, and Ray has acted with my greats more than once.

I have seen many rare items so far, and what do you care? I have something quite expensive in the sense of aesthetic eyes.

I guess that's why I thought the tent was such a good thing.

Pull through the areas that are piercing the dirt and store each inside the mysteries.

Only a new tent, working with care not to get dirty.

Lutus looked at Ray's behavior as if it had spooked him.

"You have time to do that?

"You don't have to rush that far now, do you? I'm not particularly worried about the giant thing. I think I might have beaten them all by now."

"... you sure you don't want to worry? You stormed out, didn't you? Nearly a thousand giants."

"Oh."

To Ray, who tells me so lightly, Lutus is surprised from the bottom of his heart, although he doesn't put it on his expression.

Of course, I knew Ray and his flavor were incredibly strong on their own.

Still, I didn't think I could handle nearly a thousand giants.

Imitations like buying time would have convinced Lutus as well.

But that's not what Ray said, and when he clearly knocked it down, that's what he said.

On the contrary, he says he's not still fighting, he's already knocked it down.

(I expected it. But... that's more powerful than I expected)

Of course, this one is a party led by Ray...... it wasn't done by the power of Red Lotus Wings alone.

Apart from the Rays, the Princess' alias, Elaine, combined forces.

But still... from the eyes of Lutus, there was no doubt that the Rays just deserved to be called powerful.

(You didn't make the wrong choice to surrender to the Rays)

Organisation… it is also an organisation connected to the upper echelons of the country, as well as individuals.

Normally, whatever you think of it, you'll get to the former.

But Lutus, instead of daring to make a common sense decision there, went on Ray.

It wasn't a strange choice to be called reckless at first glance, but now it was so obvious from the eyes of Lutus that that was the right answer.

With such a gaze on his face, Ray calls out to Lutus as he sees Bühne approaching him.

"So, what do you think we should do now? You let them get away for some reason, didn't you?

Of course.

Lutus nods instantly at Ray's words, grinning and opening his mouth.

"The soldiers came to this cave, probably to make them lose."

"... to make you lose? Well, including that commander-like nobleman, none seemed competent. If you dare to mention it, the soldiers seemed to have the strength there."

"Right? Why do you think so many people have been sent to destroy Jaya, the key base of an organization connected to the country? I don't care how crazy the upper levels of the Labourina Nation are, sending him like that..."

"I wouldn't normally."

Ray tells me to take over the words.

Plus, Lutus nods and tells his guess, after saying no, which is only his guess.

That's definitely convincing for Ray, too, and he snorts unexpectedly.

In fact, Ray was wondering about that, too.

I didn't know you were sending that degree of opponent as a commander.

But if the goal was to make Ray lose from the start, that was understandable.

"I see....... then take it back to the cave for now? Giants are about to be cleaned up."

That's what Ray told him, and he went back to the cave with Lutus and Beaune and Yellow.
