Virgin Candidate

Thelma Zain.

The previous Virgin, the woman, approached the carriage burned as we guarded our surroundings.

There were signs of fighting all around him, and the carriage had been burned and the escort, supposedly armed, had been killed.

Killed, treated or carefully burned.

Eva held her mouth and Aria had a blue look on her face.

I don't feel good either.

(... think that's the first time you've killed a person directly)

It made the adventurers who had raided in Aramsarth unable to return, but did not lay their hands directly.

When I'm feeling weird and sick, Clara walks over to my side.

"Mr. Lyell, there's only one person alive. I've lost my mind and my injuries are terrible, but I've managed to be safe."

When I snort, I head that way.

[Gastone Bonini], a former high priest of Zain, seems to intend to generously bury the dead.

But I don't have time, so I magically dig holes, and I seem to bury the bodies.

"... I'd like to bury you more generously."

Mr Selma says so, but Mr Gastone was shaking his head beside him. I guess you understand it's dangerous to be here.

Clara, pull my sleeve.

"Mr. Lyell, I hate to say it, but let me tell you something. Why did you take on this request and even hear about their wagamama? We should leave as soon as possible."

Clara is right. You're right, but I have a situation, too.

Primarily, the historical masters in the treasure balls.

The third generation.

"Shall I sell my thanks here and put them aside, and let them rely on me in Baim? Luckily, Nowem and the others are looking for a base in Baim. You plan to buy a large base for 10%, and you can hide it!

Nowem, Miranda, Monica, Shannon - I left the four to get a base in Baym in addition to gathering information.

I would have liked to bring Monica, but I also had to clean the base where I bought it so I left it.

Monica, who's dropping us off, seemed so lonely.

Sixth generation too.

'I need to make a better impression. Then, shall we draw a lot of information to devour deeply, Lyell?'

Historical contemporaries more lively than usual.

I wanted to sigh, but patiently turned my gaze towards survival. He's not recovering consciousness, and he's giving us the medication we had to start treatment.

The fifth generation.

'... that's suspicious. It is so uncomfortable to have survivors even though we have so politely carried out the obliteration of evidence. Have you planted anything?

I point my gaze at a surviving man, but nothing particularly weird. I checked with my skills, but I didn't know anything.

(Even Shannon brought them here. I might have been more active this way than I would have left it with the cleaning staff)

Even now, I regretted that I should think more about the organization. I'm with Clara.

"It's not a bad idea to sell thanks. And let's be vigilant about those who survive. Something's bothering me."

Clara nodded when she heard it and went to tell the rest of her people what I said.

I turned my gaze to Thelma, the former Virgin.

Next to it stands a girl in a hood. He seems to be an important person because he is taken care of in the same way as Mr. Selma from the correspondence around him.

Being on guard around the area, a group of chasers were apparently packing the distance.

(You haven't given up. I just think we're planning a raid with all the numbers)

The opponents are fighting, a group enough to blow themselves up.

In addition to his trouble-conscious gear, he decided he was not a thief because of his physical fitness.

Even the poison could be planting it in a weapon, plus it seems to be a hidden weapon.

(That's a pain in the ass. Is the sword a little harsh? The bow was also prevented)

I didn't expect to be dealt with immediately, but apparently the opponent is able to fight. I decided it was dangerous to fight with a treasure ball as my sword.

The bow, too, may already have information and measures in place.

When we were working on a new proposal, Mr. Gastone approached us.

"I apologize for taking the time. Let's leave immediately."

Nodding, I give instructions to my people. We'll have Porter on board, and we'll be on guard at the rear.

I also want to keep the injured person.

"I'll keep the injured here"

With that said, Mr. Selma walked over and shook his neck to the side.

"I can't bother you that far. Besides, I want you to concentrate on escorting. Those who are injured are those who have served me for many years. Let me see you with our hands."

From within the treasure ball, there was a seventh generation of voices.

'... can't you even keep it from me? Even if you say you have something, your judgment will be dull due to feelings within you. Lyell, you won't be awake for a while, but you have to be careful.'

The fourth generation was also in agreement.

"I want to get rid of the anxiety element as much as I can, but won't I be trusted to pull it apart when I can"

I can't tie it up because there's something there.

There's an element of anxiety, but we decided to follow Thelma's advice. The third generation just comes up with a suggestion.

"Lyell, important people tell you to put your luggage in a lighter carriage so you can get away. At least let's minimize the damage '

Just saying it's suspicious doesn't even move on. When I grabbed the treasure ball, I made a third generation proposal to Selma and Gastone.

Return to Baim.

Positioned behind the group, we saw three carriages moving forward.

Though it is well made, it is well made. In addition to the former Virgin, the Grand Cleric also rides, and it doesn't look like he prepared it on purpose.

May, who came up to the ceiling, spoke to me looking backwards.

"Hey, I'm just curious"

"What?

Looking back, May, sitting on the ceiling clawing, says without looking at me.

"What do you do when the guys you attacked before come? Run? Fight?

I answered Mae's question.

"If I can get away, I'll get away. I'd like to think you wouldn't follow me to Baym. But if you can fight, I'll crush you."

Our opponent entered Baym and could have raided us. Fortunately, the people who carried out the raid were following us and there was no sign that they had sent their people somewhere.

The number is twelve.

I don't have much face to fight, but this time I had May. Of all the faces now, it would be the most dependable.

Aria and Eva also rely on it, but the problem is that they are hesitant.

I can't say enough that I didn't either.

(Ha, do you blunt when you have to? But if you hesitate, they'll kill you. You can't die here)

Again, when I made sure I was ready, May turned to me.

"Then shall we fight ahead? It's a narrow road, and they're in a hurry, so you're going there, aren't you? I'm in a bit of a hurry over there because Lyell is increasing the speed of the group with his skills."

with skills [speed], increasing the speed of the population. If you can't, it will be possible to keep running away.

"Do you have any idea?

When I asked, May laughed.

"It's not a measure. I'm Kirin. I've also been dealing with people trying to catch me. There are a lot of troublemakers here again. Whether you run away or run away, they're coming after you, so you really have to take them down. It's just that even if we crush Chimatima, survival will be wiser and more traps and people, so it was desirable to scratch it all out."

(Do you dare to attract me to a trap?

I heard a fifth generation of voices from the treasure balls as I snorted. Ignored.

'May's been struggling, too. I'm crying.'

May laughed niggardly.

"If we get cornered, we'll kill people. But in that case, the troublemakers take them down together. Think we've got a trap, aim it when everyone pops up."

After all, he seems to be deliberately saying he's in a trap.

"That's dangerous. If you're surrounded, you'll be harmed. You're not alone."

Then May looked at me and laughed with her nose.

"Just kidding. Lyell better believe in his power just a little bit more."

Mae, who said that and turned her gaze backwards, would shut up.

- In the carriage.

Thelma spoke to the girl who sat next to her.

"Aura, what did you do earlier?

The girl sitting next to me is [Aura]. The wavy, long-haired girl was luxurious in shape.

There is also a history of contending with the contemporary Virgin [Remus Zain] as a candidate for the Virgin, and Thelma took her out of Zain.

"It's nothing. But good for you. I was able to meet adventurers along the way. She seems like Gan, so it's easy to handle."

As Thelma narrows her eyes, watch out for Aura.

"What was your attitude when you helped me? If you didn't have one, you'd be perfect."

The same goes for the part called upbringing, but Aura looks like a beautiful girl. Thelma and Gastone backed him up and recommended him to the next Virgin.

Of course, he wasn't chosen because of his appearance and his upbringing.

Aura was like Thelma and belonged to the moderates. More than twenty years ago, Zayn was a religious country but had repeated wars.

They were waging war around them and looting them repeatedly.

But it's not even a neighboring country that stays silent while being hit. In the same way it was invaded by Zain's territory, and the people were suffering.

Aura had put her legs in the seat in front of her and looked sloppy. It doesn't look like she was a very candidate for the Virgin.

"They're going after me because I'm running away. I should have grown up in the Temple of Zain. Holy knights assholes just don't like witches talking politics."

The Holy Knights, called the Assholes, are the Knights of Zain. In the name of the Goddess, the Knights who follow the Virgin. But the content is not very different from that of the Knights of other countries.

No, in terms of being terrible, the Holy Knights were worse than the Knights of the surrounding countries.

Years of looting and ideas remained deeply rooted in Selma's reign, and it was impossible to make them change.

As a result, extremists came together as anti-Selma. [Remis] was recommended by such extremists.

Thelma apologizes to Aura when she exhales.

"I'm sorry I got you involved. But if we're the only ones who escape, it's bound to hurt you, too."

Aura looks at the ceiling.

"That's why I didn't like being a candidate for the Virgin. Wasn't there something else? I wish I could keep a bit of a mindless witch sitting in a chair, 'cause I can't and I'm gonna try to rule."

Thelma held her forehead with her hand. I guess I have a headache.

"We can't help but fight and continue to be resented in the surrounding countries like that for years. When I was there, the neighboring countries were forming a coalition to crush Zain."

Aura laughed.

"Wouldn't that have been better?

"There will be no good reason!

In the carriage, the two of you will be silent.

After a while, Aura opened her mouth.

"... me, if I run into Baym like this, I want to live quietly as it is."

Thelma shakes her neck to the side.

"That would be nice, too. However, if we can escape to Baim, we are talking about. The adventurers you hire seem excellent, but what happens?"

Thelma had an idea of the troops coming after him.

They're extremists, named Assassination Squads held by the Holy Knights.

It is a force to work and leap through numerous evils called top secret. The elites of the Holy Knights were also enrolled, troublesome beings.

But the numbers are not that high.

Thelma thought that if he escaped to Baim, he would return to the country.

Aura looks at Thelma as she reassembles her legs.

"Shouldn't we have gotten along with the assholes? Master Selma could have done that, couldn't she? If it's true, you didn't say more than a decade ago that you would take turns and live in a temple in the countryside?

When Thelma gets faceless, she starts complaining about bumps.

"Even I wanted to retire and have a family... because Gastone cries. Besides, I couldn't find my next candidate, and the Holy Knights rebelled against Omake and were useless. Relying on adventurers will make you even angrier... what do you want me to do? I wanted to retire, pull into the country, get married."

Follow Thelma before she had a strange switch on the boulder and whether Aura thought it was unsavory too. Aura is also grateful to Thelma.

I could serve on the side of the Virgin as a witch, and she was adored.

"Master Selma should also live quietly in Baim. Look, even in marriage..."

That's it, Thelma smiles.

"Aura, you think I have someone for thirty-six this year? Even though it's hard as early as ten years?

Seeing an enlightened smile, Aura felt painful -.
