"Drop the rope now! Climb as fast as you can!

Listening to Tatark, I think.

... What's wrong with this, seriously?

You ran away with me like this, 'cause I got caught deliberately and it doesn't make any sense to stay here.

I don't know how Manticore would react to the Sacrificial Escape - and I can't predict how the settlement side would respond.

If you suck, the settlement is a mayhem, Manticore notices it's weird and gets all grandpa on the run.

"Wow, what are you going to do, let us go? Also, the other kids will just be brought..."

An elderly child looks up at Tatark and says:

In response to the inquiry, Tatark shakes his head.

"Already, what is this settlement? Manticore seeks a number of sacrifices that ignore the size of this settlement. At this pace, there will be no girls out of the settlement without two years"

"Well, that's what they've been asking me..."

"The child was told to stay down. Master Nagrom even set up a matrix to fight a war on the Dragon Divine settlement and grab children."

That Osama, you've been thinking about that!

Even though I didn't have any other hands, you don't.

"... but maybe the reason Manticore moved to this settlement in the first place is due to the return of the Dragon God. If there's a dragon god over there, there's no way we can even get our hands on him from here. This settlement is already packed!

…………

The children will be silent.

That would be a shock. If you keep up the good work, if they hear that your hometown will be wiped out.

Now is the only time Manticore is after a child, but it's not something I've figured out how to get out after eating and destroying my preferred layer.

Either the child disappears and perishes, or they are all left and eaten to death by Manticore.

Either way, it's not very, but it doesn't feel good.

"... ta, mr. Tatark, are you going back to the dragon god settlement too?

One of the girls opened her mouth.

Tatark remained silent for about a few seconds biting his lips, but eventually shook his head.

"In the meantime, I've just spoken of everything from village placement to strength to the condition of the fields in order to get them to accept me as far as the settlements over there..."

Tatark says in a heavy tone, leaning down.

"Dragon gods make ruthless decisions if they are for a settlement. If I go over there, I'll be burned alive by the breath of a dragon, and I won't be spared from showing off."

... some god said I would burn to death with a dragon's breath.

Thinking that way, the girls turned their gaze at each other simultaneously.

A crying face, a frightened face. From there, slightly, the colour of criticism and disappointment could be seen.

Ma, wait!

He said he wouldn't do that!

Because it's a different dragon!

A camel with three necks is gobbling in the desert, so you're about full of dragons with two necks!

I've only seen myself on the water!

"but......"

He retreated a step backwards as the other side wandered.

Hey, there's another dragon out there.

"I will stay here and appeal to Master Nagrom for a settlement with the Dragon Divine settlement. Perhaps even in today's meeting, that must have been somewhat touched upon. If the sacrificial candidates run away in unison, Nagrom's options will narrow."

Reconciliation...?

I'd sleep best for me if you did, but the certainty seemed pretty deep, do you really have a chance of winning?

"... even if Master Nagrom's persuasion went well, I would be killed for deliberately narrowing my options. If the dragon god settlements don't accept the proposed reconciliation in the first place, they could all be killed..."

If you fail, you can't execute them all!

Either way, Osama is dead!

The children also look indescribable when they say that help has come.

Do we sacrifice ourselves to extend our lives in our homeland, or do we run away and reduce our life expectancy in our homeland?

It's a terrible choice.

Besides, even Tatark, who has brought the escape, is telling me to crush myself and help, so everywhere I have a bad aftertaste.

...... hmm?

Hey, no, this, depending on the way you look at it, it could be a chance, right?

Dragon god settlements should allow dragon gods to speak out about important decisions and people's punishments.

Indeed, the sacrifice system was proposed by the Dragon God. He also said that Tatark would 'not allow the Dragon God to return now'.

If that's the right thing to do, it means you're pretty vocal.

I mean, you could push through the settlement proposal with a single voice of a dragon without my crane, and on the contrary, you should be able to even take them all without blame.

Now, maybe we can get Nagrom to decide to settle Manticore for the stock.

... just risky for that matter.

If we move towards reconciliation, it is visible that Nagrom will be tragic at a time when he was not determined to reconcile.

Worst case scenario, a war breaks out after you've missed Manticore.

This place... shouldn't be in a hurry.

If we choose the path to reconciliation now, one overlook could destroy our settlement.

As long as I'm doing Dragon God, there's got to be another chance.

That's not what you do in a life-threatening situation.

Besides... I think there's something I've overlooked about Dragon God.

Are you hooked or uncomfortable......

"... Hey, Osama. Go back and keep an eye on him with the hole plugged."

They throw their voices at Tatark.

"Oh, that, how could you, the rope..."

"Tonight's sacrifice is mine to go. Temei decided not to do anything, so go back to the front entrance. I'll kick your ass with that Bakemon."

The other side showed himself with his thumb and ran out.

Breathtaking voices rise from the surroundings.

The sacrificed children also understood what I was here for.

"Oh, that's how I can... I can tell you that because I've never seen Manticore! It's not a demon in people's hands! Come on, climb up here! Climb up here! The blood of a witch is unusually good! It's not what I figured out when I'd be chased!

No one moved in response to Tatark's call.

The uninformed Tatark of the lone situation looks around the cave as if in a hurry.

"Somebody... hurry up... now or Master Nagrom will be ready for war during a respite that can keep Manticore in the mood! But as long as there's that ruthless dragon god, there's no winning first. All we have to do is let the dead go to waste. So not just for you guys, but also for the settlement..."

The elderly child rises up and looks around at the other children.

While the other kids showed confusion, they eventually snorted.

That's how I got confirmation with my eyes on each and every one of them, and finally I turned my gaze to the other.

The other side, laughing with his nose, nods small.

"We're not running away! I'll stay here!

"Duh, why... if we keep this up, there will be war..."

"Riu... because I believe this man! So I'll stay!

That's what the elderly child says.

Tatark skewed his face and retreated without force.
