Master’s Smile

Episode 174: Doesn't Matter War

Case?

"Uhm."

The elder snorted at me when I asked him back for the parrot.

"'He who brings ruin' hears it had terrible power. Then I'm going to make sure of it."

Ha......

I could only smile vaguely. [M]

Because it has become clear that I am not that 'one who brings ruin'.

Terrible powers? I don't even have those, pieces.

"How do you know for sure?

"Um, I want you to join me in the upcoming battle."

"What?"

Chevalt distorts his face thoughtfully.

Hmmm... to the boulders, lending a hand to the war...

In the first place, I don't have good feelings for elves, and I don't want to help...

"Well, listen to me first"

That said, the elder told me and Chevalt what was going on.

Now it seems that the elves in this forest are in hostility with the Dwarves who live nearby.

We had a ceasefire agreement a while back, but it looks like the Dwarves are starting to invade and go to war again.

... Well, given the scale of the elves and dwarves, collision is more right than war.

Besides, even if the elves have set it up from the Dwarves, it might be the other way around from the other side, and I can't trust them.

And well, I could think of all those things, so I heard them in half without only doing so.

"On that battlefield, I will test your power. If he is the one who brings ruin, he will surely bring about the victory of our elves. Even if it wasn't, I'm a member of the Adventurer Alliance. It'll do you some good."

"Ooh......!

Elves in the House of Lords brighten their faces that the Elders did not have that idea in their words.

No, oh... it's not.

How is it that we obey what you say?

"Boulders are elders. You mean on the palm of your hand, even that heirloom monster...!

"We are happy to have someone like that up there..."

But my words don't reach them, and I just fly across words that compliment my elders.

Yep... what the hell are those long ears on for...

Words like that racist are going to leak.

"Try the master? Helpful? Worm time is a terrible thing coming out of the top."

Don't they realize Schwartz's relentless killings?

I don't know... relax...

"I'm sorry. I can't believe this is happening... I'll do anything in the dungeon later, so why don't you just give the senate a break about killing everyone!? To the boulder, in the present situation, it's not good......!

Roofygear clings to Chevalt instead of putting a stop to me, as he looks like he's going to cry.

No, well, I'm not thinking of killing everyone here.

I was a little annoyed...

I don't know...... in this short time, Roofigia has looked like a hell of a hard worker.

Though Schwartz is elusive, Roofigia is desperate to cling.

Hmmm...... I don't think Chevalt will even kill them all. About half a kill.

Nevertheless, I also know what it feels like Roofigia is desperately stopping.

Now, the Elves and Dwarves are at war.

And yet, if the Senate, a gathering of leaders, were rendered powerless (physical), it would undoubtedly also lose the war.

That means stomping and kicking for the elves.

... Well, blah, blah, blah. It's none of my business with Chevalt.

"Oh, please. You just have to follow me to the battlefield! The members here won't be on the battlefield, so you won't have to fight to find out! I'll pay you well, apart from the kids' share of the rescue.... with the wealth of the Senate"

You're surprisingly belly black, roofie gear.

But if this was all swinging around, you could do this much more.

Still, just follow me...... huh.

Truth be told, sometimes I didn't really want to cause problems here.

We are members of the Dark Alliance, and it would be troublesome if the Elves as well as the Kingdom of Evan were hostile to us.

"… what do you do, Master"

Hmmm...... what shall I do?

Really, the war between Elves and Dwarves doesn't matter from the bottom of my heart.

Either you win, or you lose.

Well, with Roofigia and the kids, I don't deny I'm just feeling a little shouldered by an elf, but I hate the Elves here in the Senate, so it's Pramai Zero.

You can turn me down here and get out of the settlement... but the elves wouldn't let me get out that easily if I had that means.

Naturally, it could be a battle and leave a cause behind.

If that's the case, you're saying it's okay to just follow the battlefield, so you just have to follow that.

... Well, I doubt there's really such a good story out there on the battlefield, but let's try to make Roofiggia expect it there.

They're asking us not to attack. They're asking us to stick our necks in a war that has nothing to do with it.

If you don't do the right thing, the Army of Salvation (Yerkthillah) will be licked, so let me tell you that I will take the right response, too.

Nevertheless, you seem to get plenty of rewards, and if you can afford the guild's financial situation, you may need to let the Chevalts go to dangerous requests a little less.

... Okay, I hate it, but suppose I'll take it?

Schwart is......

"Of course, I'll take it on, too. It is my duty as a slave to refrain from taking your master's side."

Right. If you're going to say Chevalt will stay with you, I'm comfortable.

Though there are times when I don't want to get involved in a war or anything...... well, sometimes a request for a dark guild makes a small war look cute, so it would be an extra worry.

Even she's a fine adult. Protecting me from all of this could also do harm when I stand alone. [M]

"Really, thanks......!

Roofygear moisturizes his eyes saying he was helpful.

I told my elder to accept the request, laughing bitterly at her. [M]

"Right. Then you may step back. I'll call you when the time comes."

Nodding to the Elder's words, me and Chevalt decided to leave this place.

Though Chevalt did tongue at the end......

"'He who brings ruin' …. Well, I hope you have that power."

Finally, I was uttered that word on my back.

... Normally, don't you hope not?

Though I questioned that, the members of the Senate will not allow us to remain here any longer.

Even though I had doubts, I followed the Senate.
