Episode 19 (Presentation of Priest Yucht)

I looked back at the gate of Lünheit, which looked far away, and stood for a while.

I don't go through that gate anymore.

When I learned that the Demon King consisted of just a few werewolf and powerless dogmen, I thought that the mighty Tuban archers could beat them.

The captain of the Tuban guard is a high brother who taught me the teachings of Teruyoism. When I told him about the situation by flying a pigeon, he secretly recruited volunteers.

But even the patriarch has no right to send troops without the Senate's permission. If one guard were to do so, he would be punished as a rebel.

Still, over fifty people responded from the bow cavalry. It seems that more than 300 dozens of citizens participated as volunteers.

With a force of about four hundred, a silver weapon should be able to destroy the werewolf and the dog.

All I need to do now is to open my gate and let them go to the city. Some citizens will respond.

It's a dangerous bet, but there is plenty of opportunity.

that's what I thought.

But the werewolf broke my stupid scheme straight away.

The disciples reported that only a dozen werewolves went out of the walls.

However, according to the commander of the werewolf, all four hundred Tuban volunteers were killed.

Only a dozen or so wolves.

Moreover, they seized my disciples and realized that I was the one who led the massacre, which could not be called this battle.

I was prepared to be killed on the spot. I have been prepared since I started fighting the demons.

I wanted to save Lynhite from the demons, even if I betrayed the patron who was on a cooperative line with the demons.

I will give you my life as a price.

But the werewolf commander did not kill me.

He listened calmly to me and sometimes even showed his understanding.

It's an incredible story. He is a demonic and must be a human enemy. We cannot understand our feelings.

But I'm clearly convinced that he felt some understanding of my claim.

Of course he didn't say it.

At the end of the inquiry, the werewolf commander was disappointed for a moment.

And it was quickly replaced by intense irony.

I still clearly remember what he said afterwards.

"interesting. Let's rule by human power. "

And I was given a letter.

"It's an official document for Tuban Tamori. It describes the history of the engagement and that the war dead were buried politely. You will be your messenger, as a clergy who will face the people of Tuban. '

I was not killed or killed, but this was ultimately an exile. He didn't say anything, but I know that.

But why didn't the werewolf commander kill me?

I begin my journey home, thinking about the intent of the werewolf commander.

It's hard to imagine that he may have been sorry for me. He was somehow sympathetic to me.

However, it is useless if you did not kill them there.

If I go to Tuban, I will be killed. They instigated a part of the Guard and the citizens, and killed them all.

I myself cannot forgive myself.

But if you lose your plot and get killed by your enemy, you should apologize to your fellow Tuban people and die.

No, maybe that's his goal.

Does it mean that humans are killed by human hands? In a place that does not pollute his hands and is unknown to the Lünheit people.

After my disappearance, there is no one who wants to fight the demons in front of the temple. Everything will be cleaned up neatly.

A terrible plotter.

But that doesn't matter now.

I bet all of my life on a stupid battle against the demons and lost without a hitch. All that is left is a small amount of time to make up for.

Let's go back to Tuban.

And die.
