Episode 74: The Three Knights of the Holy Tree

The three men who came to the hearing were taken by the leading Mr. Makina to a room in the school once.

Me and Mr. Currier follow them, too.

What we were brought here was a room almost the same size as the dean's office.

The center of the room is equipped with a long desk.

With me in the middle, there were Mr. Makina and Mr. Currier in the seats on both sides.

Face-to-face seats include Captain Sochute and Mr. Deirès.

Mr. Vanstos leans against the wall with his back.

"Again, I'm Deareth Arklight, vice president of the Knights of the Holy Tree. Nice to meet you today."

Mr. Dearless will meet.

"Sogt Sigmsos. I'm the leader of the Knights of the Holy Tree, please"

"Vanstos, Troia...... Holy Tree, Knights...... Holy Tree, Eight Swords"

The other two go on as well.

I'll finish introducing myself again.

and so Mr. Mia came in and placed a cup of tea in front of each person (handed to Mr. Vanstos).

And she quit in a courtesy.

After Mia left the room, Makina said as she touched the cup.

"I was surprised the three of you were coming. Holy ruins attack, are you off now?

"I just took down the guardian species of the 49th hierarchy and reached the 50th hierarchy the other day... well, it feels like a break here or something"

The captain answered.

Fifty tiers to reach?

Something, wow.

And, accidentally, silence came.

In it, Mr. Makina carries a cup flat in his mouth.

It was Mr. Dearless who opened his mouth slightly.

"Well, can I ask you again about the day first?

I asked Mr. Makina and Mr. Currier once with my gaze.

A small nod returns from them.

I nod back.

"Okay."

Correct your residence.

"Well, let me explain."

Even though there was a little tension, I mentioned the backdrop of the outrage.

He only paled out what had happened objectively and spoke only of the information he had decided he should talk about.

The three Knights of the Holy Tree listened to the story in silence as they hammered from time to time.

They are in a position to have been following the culprits of a series of murders that were taking place in the Wang capital at the time.

Once the killer - I guess I'll have to grasp the trend after the Hibigami incident.

Finish talking the whole way.

Then the captain,

"Hmm."

and roared.

"Is it very different from the information gathered so far?"

Mr. Dearless, who was bookkeeping, stops the blade pen.

"Right."

"But it's the harvest that's made the face of motive clear. I see, is the man called Hibigami a fighter madman"

"And it's the sixth house, right? This also made the idea of putting on a bounty difficult. Well, maybe it's more a question of how many people outnumber each other with power in the first place."

Hard to put on a bounty.

I guess what I'm saying is derived from past examples of the person who put the bounty on him or the people around him being targeted.

"Oh, were you likely not already in the country in the first place?

Mr. Dearless's question flew to me.

"Yeah, he said he was headed for the empire."

Hmm, and Mr. Dearless puts on a cheek wand.

"Empire, is it"

…………

When I look at him like this, it seems that he is Mr. Cecily again today.

Maybe this is what Mr. Cecily would look like if he were a shortcut.

However, sometimes the gender is different and the voice is very different from Mr. Cecily's.

Besides, the tenderness is clearly more masculine than Mr. Cecily in the standing behavior and tricks of certain things.

"So now I have to leave you alone? If you're in the Empire, it's a shame... but I don't mean it."

said the captain.

However, I could not look as hard at untrained or remorseful as shards, even as I spoke of unwillingness.

Yes, it is.

I heard about the circumstances, but thank you to the three Knights of the Holy Tree... I feel somewhat powerless.

I don't mean to be rude, but I got the impression that I was trying to get the hearing done quickly and clerically.

But to see how Mr. Makina has reacted so far, I don't even think he's the three of us who have time to bother to take a trip for light errands.

I mean... is it okay to understand that there is another purpose?

"Is this where formal interviews are conducted?"

And the head of the regiment deposited his weight on the back of the chair looking like he had said that the front seat was over.

Mr. Makina, who was drinking tea with his little one, opens his mouth.

"Is that what this is all about?

Eyes as sharp as the captain's eagle caught Mr. Currier and me in turn.

"The curse man and those from the Sixth House are dying to see each other."

The captain's gaze returns to Mr. Currier.

Like, "Currier Verstein? From what I've heard, he's from the Sixth House."

"Yes."

Mr. Currier affirms immediately.

"What do you say, Dearless?

Asked by the captain, Mr. Diares had a refreshing grin.

"You're a beauty. of a different kind than our sister."

There were seconds between them.

The gaze of the Captain and Mr Diares remains fixed on Mr Currier.

Then the captain of the squeaky face roared one, and said to Mr. Diares.

"You're strong."

"Yes."

"Currier Verstein"

The captain called.

"Is the man named Hibigami stronger than you?"

"Strong."

"Hmm... right. Very well. And the curse man over there... did you say Sagara Krohiko?"

"Yes."

"I chased Hibigami back with you and Currier Verstein... that's what I hear, but still with the power of the curse?

Once, me and Mr. Currier crossed our gaze.

"... I think thanks to the power of the curse"

I'm not lying.

It will be no different that it is the power of the curse.

"Sister of Renowsphere - School Director"

After I reword it, the captain sees Mr. Makina.

"What could it be?

"Good students are in this year."

Mr. Makina put his mouth in a single letter and looked a little unexpected.

"If you are joining the Order as Saint Tree Man, the Knights of the Holy Tree welcome you both"

"... today, to see the two of you with those eyes?

"At least not me."

Mr. Currier also showed a slightly confusing color for this.

"I... am a member of the Sixth House"

"What's wrong with that"

The captain replied immediately.

"I'm not going to get involved with the Sixth House. That's the same thing with the subpeople. It's not race, blood muscle, or family that matters. Admittedly, the strength of the person. And then, well..."

The captain glanced at the deputy captain next door.

"Blessed with personality, I'd appreciate it"

"Now, obviously, it's about me, isn't it?

Smile and Mr. Dearless laughs at the head of the regiment.

"You seem conscious. You're relieved."

"Ha ha, the captain is a good joke. By the way, what do you think of Vanstos? Am I that bad?

Suddenly he was told the story, and Mr. Vanstos frowned at the troubled wind.

"Mm... I... think Dearless is a good personable person. All the Knights... you came and said the atmosphere was better than before, keep your mouth shut. You're a good man."

"Yes, I am? Sochute, what do you think?

"I guess this guy is always fooled, or even gripped by weakness. You don't have to force Vanstos, do you?

"Yes, no... I can't..."

"Look, Vanstos knows about you and me. It's just the Sochutes, isn't it? What's so awful about me in the Knights?"

"If you were a personable person, there would be no one left in this country."

"When the hell am I going to gain your trust?"

"The future won't last forever."

Ha, ha, Mr. Dearless laughs.

Somehow...... The Knights of the Holy Trees Top Three were usually friendly.

"Well, the reality is that it can't be more than under the control of the state, regardless of origin at all. Just think of it as something of my belief."

Did you think that was the only way you could throw the words you put on, Mr. Currier's confusion lingered on his face without disappearing?

Watch how Mr Currier does that, or the captain adds the words.

"I'm not asking you to force me to join the group. I'm just saying that I'm willing to welcome you as head of the Knights of the Holy Tree. It's only your first year, isn't it? I don't even think about it that deeply. You just have to decide slowly."

"... I'll just take your feelings, thank you"

Mr Currier said with a seemingly complicated face.

"Oh, Captain, have you been fumbled?

Mr Deirès said happily.

Pokan, what a sudden face captain punched him in the head with a bow.

"Hot."

"Shut up for a second."

…………

I'm close.

And the captain turned to me.

"Sagara Krohiko"

"Yes."

"If you feel like it, you're welcome as far as I'm concerned. It's just, well, candidate life is still a long time. You should think carefully without hurry."

"Oh, thank you"

Jeez, the captain's staring at me.

Huh?

"... Dearless, what do we see here?

Without taking his gaze off of me, the captain called on Mr. Dearless again.

"You're unknown. Is there an impression that the amplitude is large? I can't say well... but I'm sure it's interesting."

"I agree. I have no idea what this man is going to do."

"I just want to see how he became a saint and joined the Knights."

Hmm.

Unknown......

Do you mean more subtle than Mr. Currier?

Ma, I know you have less strength than Mr. Currier.

…………

Three years, let's do our best.

"And well, that's it for me. So... what can I do for you, Dearless, too?

"Uh... yeah, it's not that big of a deal"

Once Mr. Dearless lowered his gaze tending to lean down.

Then turn your gaze slowly towards Mr. Currier.

"I have one question for you, a person from the Sixth Chamber. Do you know a man named Lokia?

I naturally carried the cup into my mouth while pretending to be a poker face.

It is said to be easy on the face, so at least it is a formula that is hidden in a cup just by the mouth.

Noise and Lokia are down to them so far.

From what I've seen, Mr. Makina doesn't seem to be going to tell the Knights of the Holy Tree about it either, and his expression stays calm.

So far, it's not a good idea to show what I know about bareback.

They guessed my thoughts like that.

Ms Currier spoke immediately of the answer.

"Yeah, I know. We've met within the last year."

Within a year, the expression is good.

Because even if we met the other day, it would be 'within a year'.

"Several times, I've seen him"

For the first time today, something ran that didn't float in Mr. Dearless's expression.

There are emotions on my voice that resemble slight frustration.

After a slight hesitation, he gently opened his lips.

"That man...... did Lokia say anything about me?

"No... I never had your name"

The end of Mr. Dearless's mouth was distorted.

Is that... offensive?

"... Really?"

"I know you, are you?

When Mr. Currier heard, there was a dark grin in Mr. Dearless's mouth.

"You had a little cause with that guy. In a nutshell… who humiliated me?"

Disappearing cold eyes of emotion.

But soon the expression disappeared.

"... forget about that one now. I've heard that people from the Sixth House are going to be listening today, so I just wanted to ask them once."

The look on Mr. Dearless's face just momentarily gave him a peek.

It was the same as Mr. Cecily's "That Look".

…………

Today.

Those two are too sure today.

I mean.

Will the Arklight brothers and sisters have the experience of being interacted with by brothers and sisters in the Sixth Chamber?

What am I gonna do?

Should I tell him there's a Rokia in this school?

…………

No, you should stop now.

The people in the 6th house are the people in the 6th house, and now it seems like a lot of trouble because of the noise.

It could create an extra spark.

"Phew."

This was also my first look of the day.

The captain laughed.

Although the edge of the mouth is rough to the extent that it is raised.

"Go after a woman more than a man, Dearless. I don't think you're going to get caught in the past."

"Mmm... for me, it's a serious disaster."

Mr.Dearless, who is going to get upset.

But the captain nodded satisfactorily, umm.

"It's unusual for you to be obsessed with someone else, so it's a lot of trouble. I did a good job with Lokia."

"Vanstos"

Mr. Dearless turned to Mr. Van Stoth with a grueling face.

"I'm frustrated by the socket."

"Captain... not too much to say... is it?"

"This is a rare opportunity. I see Dearless Arklite had weaknesses, too."

"We talked here, it was a failure..."

Mr. Dearless was depressed.

"Oh, Vanstos had something going on, too, didn't he?

The captain turned to the water.

"Mm... oh... I just wanted to apologize"

Yeah?

Apologize?

"Sagara Crohiko, Currier Verstein"

Speaking from the wall with his back, Mr. Vanstos lowered his head profoundly toward us by posturing correctly.

"I'm listening... my brother... and I seem to have been rude... as my brother, shh, I apologize... sorry, I was"

My brother...

I mean, Bashkarta Troia?

Huh?

Could it be that you are apologizing, Mr. Vanstos, for Bashkarta's behavior in the example giant crusade operation!?

"Yes, no! Oh no... it's not like Mr. Vanstos is apologizing! Hey, hey, Mr. Currier!?

"Ah, oh... Bashkarta turned out to be like that, so it's only resentment... you need to apologize for nothing..."

"No... I knew there was a problem with my brother's behavior... But I've been pretending not to see..."

There is little change in the expression, but the reluctance Mr. Vanstos feels has been conveyed.

"My mother, too, had a problem… I was so unfathomable and mouthless, on the other hand… my brother was affectionate and bright… my mother's favorite, so… my brother was spoiled by such a mother… and grew up,"

Speaking of which, Mr. Makina has told me about Bashkarta's mother.

We thought it belonged to the Fiburg squad that we picked up during the Giant Crusade, and we were collecting the Holy Sword and the Devil's Sword.

But I didn't know how to handle them, so I kept them in the Holy Monument Hall once.

So, his mother, who came to pick up Bashkarta, who died and slept long in the ruins, told Mr. Makina and school officials, 'It's not under control! What the hell is going on in this school?' After spreading scolding and resentment, he firmly recovered the Holy Sword and the Devil's Sword.

Meanwhile, you were crying about sleeping bashkarta.

I wasn't at the scene, but I remember the story vividly because I heard it from Mr. Makina with scattered stupidity.

Well, if you were raised by a mother like that...... I feel comfortable with that personality too.

"My mother will gather holy swords and demon swords to back me up! 'or something, but maybe Bashkarta was an outgoing Mazacon guy......

"I'm... my mother, I'm not good at it... and I can't say anything strong... but my, responsibility, but... my brother's disrespect, ah, again... sorry, sorry"

"Mr. Vanstos......"

Nah... what a nice guy.

"Because we don't care. You don't have to apologize. Instead, you said you were prepared to be resented."

"I agree with Crohiko too"

"Keeping, caring...... pain, going in"

Mr. Dearless laughs bitterly.

"Seriously, Vanstos is... and you're okay with that, aren't you? You talk about yourself, you don't have love, you talk about me, but I like you, don't you?

"Mm... um... thank you, do"

"Is that it? Vanstos, could it be illuminating?

"Ugh... no..."

"Don't make fun of serious Van Stoth, you idiot"

"Holy shit!

Boom, and the captain shook his second cock down Mr. Diares' head.

"It's about you hitting me in the head in this country, Sochute!?

"Everyone will just be reluctant. Captain, it's a privilege."

"Please don't abuse me..."

"Try not to let that happen. … Now, what can I do for you?"

The captain lifted his right arm from his chair about the long desk.

"By the way, school director"

The air changed slightly.

The captain looks down at Mr. Makina with his deep darkened black eyes.

"I'd like to ask you one thing, too."

Mr. Makina stares back at you for losing.

"What do you want to hear? What the hell is it?

"You seem to be gently protecting the curse man... but with the man at hand, what are you going to do?

"I see."

Shh.

Mr. Makina had a thin, cold grin on his face.

"That's what I meant to hear, so?

The captain touched the base of his left arm with his right hand.

"- Revenge?

Mr. Makina kept his mouth shut.

Then a little, uh, she exhaled.

"Fine. Perhaps we should take this opportunity and talk about it in the sense of solving a misunderstanding."

Mr. Makina combined his small hands on the long desk.

"About my sister."

Mr. Makina's...... sister?

The next person to open his mouth was the captain who got back to his seat.

"Chris Renowsphere, then the eldest daughter of the prestigious Renowsphere family, who rose to vice president of the Knights of the Holy Tree. The youngest record was broken by Dearless, but those who still have the talent to surpass her as a surgical use have not appeared in the Knights of the Holy Tree"

Mr. Makina seemed to have ceded the storyteller to the head of the delegation.

Apparently, he decided he was better qualified.

And the captain, he started talking.

on the death of Chris Renowsphere.
