Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave
Episode 127: Secret Meeting
That night Toshiki Boy visited the Adventure Department. In a room secretly reserved by the Duke's family for space in the school, some of the officers of the unit entrusted with the protection of the Duke's heavy towns and the Ellords School were gathered.
"So, any questions?
That's what Kite asks everyone. I was just finishing up with Kate telling me about this operation in one of the bandits. Kite's inquiry is about its last tightening.
"You look unhappy. You got something to say?
Kate looks at Al and inquires. There was only a little discontent in his face. I haven't been able to hide my expression yet, so in terms of politics like that, Al still had the sweetness to age. Well, Lil and Lucius are just close to Poker Faith during the meeting. Lil has only stopped thinking a little.
"... dissatisfied, or worried.
As for him, he is opposed to the execution of this operation per se, but once the Lord has decided to execute it, he will only do everything in his power to execute the order. I was speaking for myself no matter how much I was allowed to speak as a friend on this occasion.
"Hmm. Allow me to speak.
I thought I hit a hand that I could hit myself, Kite, but I eat wax from Al to allow him to speak. But, well, it was well understood by Kate that he was anxious.
"Yeah. This is definitely the middle of our day for military exercises, isn't it?
What Al is anxious about is that the military exercise, which begins a few days later, is the biannual military exercise carried out by the Emperor by decree. The period is being executed by choosing an auspicious day from the turn of spring and summer and the turn of autumn and winter, but it was a few days later this year. This military exercise involves the armies of nobles from all over the Empire, naturally also taking part in the gesture of Count Reames in the matter. but above all, the problem was that the kites were at the Duke McDawell's house.
Elite participation from each Duke and two Grand Dukes is one of the main forces of the Empire, but in the Dukes of Kite, it was usual for troops led by the descendants of the Imperial Heroes, Lux and Ballantine, to participate. This has a strong significance for each nobleman's exaltation of war, and unless there is any reason to do so, the non-participation of Ellord's troops was not implicitly permitted. In other words, for this period alone, security had to be thin.
"Besides, this day, the kites are supposed to have dinner at a meeting with Master Kuzha, right? All school adventurers will be waiting for you at the school, but you can't count on a bandit. And there will be only 30 soldiers of the Duke's family in the school. Wouldn't the protection be too thin?
No matter how emperor's decree, the elite need not participate in the whole army, and some percent are also allowed to remain as an emergency response. Things are going on this time, so even on the imperial side, I didn't push it through. but still, with about 30 people left, it was unlikely that we could protect all students and teachers in the unlikely event that we didn't hit anything.
"That's obvious... well, if I tell you at the beginning, I'm almost certain it's going to be on this date. I am instructing the Count to leak that this day is the easiest day to protect.
Kite smiles badly and tells everyone. The Ellords get a little carried away by the words. I didn't even bother to understand what it meant to teach you that security was weak.
By the way, Kate found out who leaked information about Heavenly Cherry Blossom School in one of Brad Auga's earlier cases and instead of allowing the punishment to be commuted, she let this information flow.
"Why not? Don't you dare tell me your disadvantage?
Lil rides himself out a little and asks for Kite's sincerity. He seemed a little angry. Well, of course. It is madness to put those who dare to defend themselves at risk. It was an abominable act for them to be proud to be knights.
"This is the easiest day to see. It's a day when there are few guardians and everyone is alert. Accidents don't happen the most… well, it's easy for the schoolchildren.
That's the last thing Kate added. There was a self-derisive grin in his mouth.
"Is that supposed to... show them where people kill people right in front of them?
Brass, who came to Kate's thought, swallows a twat and asks Kate. Kate admits it and tells her why.
"That's the thing...... it doesn't keep the existence of the school secret until hours, and even the status quo doesn't go unlimited for hours with the bond of cover-up in the first place. No matter how you scratch, you need maintenance. That's when we need them to protect the school after the Ellords retreat. In that case, it would be difficult for them to be frightened to the extent that people were killed in front of them.
It won't be the Ellords fault that the grin that Kite brings to mind telling him so seemed to mock herself somewhere. People die easily in this world. That's normal for them, too. And it was time for school students to learn that nothing was just due to demons.
Thus, Kate and Tina uttered what they were most afraid of now.
"This one thing. The difference in perception between those who have peace behind them is at the root. I can get a blind eye, I don't need you to think that.
"It's not like it's going to go from the ground up. Otherwise, the same thing will happen in the future. If you don't want anyone to die any more, you have to look at one thing here, the painful eye.
The Ellords have no objection to the words they have spoken. It's spicy, but I had to. This is because they are afraid, too.
Anyone who works as an adventurer in the school or plans to do so is still good. But some of those who did not had already decided that their safety would be guaranteed even if they did nothing, that they would get the art of return, and that something that devoured peace was beginning to emerge. Then, at some point, there will be an adventure with the adventurer, and at the end of the day it will be decisive.
So this is the right time. In a few moments, Adventure students will start taking requests while staying outside, and in a few more moments, they will start making requests in other noble territories. That way, even the kites will begin to have the potential to get out of hand.
For whatever reason, Toshiki Boy was one who was going to be an adventurer. Therefore, it is quite understandable of danger, and it is easy to read thoughts and actions. If it had intercepted all their conversations, it would have been even worse. So Kite and the others decided to take advantage of this opportunity.
"But... isn't this too dangerous?
Even taking all of them into account, the danger seemed too high. According to the information available so far, the number of bandits expected to attack is about 200. No matter how elite the troops were, it was likely that with just 30 people surrounded by all directions they would not be able to protect everything.
"Apart from the bandits now confirmed, there will surely be a sign of Count Reames coming to raid... there may be some dead or taken away from the school side..."
If further horizontal spears from Count Reames were to be included in this situation, there would be serious and unrepeatable injuries, no matter how fortunate they may be. Ellord, who feared it, asks. I'm a parent with him. Hopefully, I didn't want the dead to come out to children my own age. That's why I wanted to reconsider. but to this word, kite grins like a prank.
"Oh, so I have my hands on that, too. Best hand, too.
I got a bad feeling about the pranky grin that Kate had - especially the Elroads - but I hear and chew Kate's next words and realize that the feeling was right. That's how Kite opened her mouth.
The Ellords didn't know what Kate was laughing about at first, but her complexion turned bright blue at once when she was able to chew on the meaning of the word. As such, Kate entertained and gave further measures to the Ellords who remained bright blue on their asses.
"So you want me to entertain you?
Brass asks Kite with trembling. He has white skin and his face is white, but now he was white with a circle on it. The summary of the troops remaining in the school is he. I had no choice but to tremble because if I had any disrespect, I would have been ordered to entertain a person who was not strange to be ordered to die.
"Oh. Like rude, though. Well, you wouldn't mind if it wasn't too much. Don't get so hard.
Kate laughs prankily, daring to emphasize the part of the Kite and the others are friends, but Brass and the others are the biggest customers. I couldn't help feeling nervous either.
"With all due respect... Your Excellency's confidence, I understand. I didn't expect them to come up with such a trivial problem..."
It was supposed to be a trivial issue for them, even if it was important to them. Originally, it is a person who is not supposed to come out, on the contrary, a person who cannot be counted as a force of war. It was pointless how Count Reames worked out what measures. Now that I'm here, I think the brass saw the backbone of Kites' confidence.
"Come on, who do you think I am? Conne would be the best in the world, wouldn't he? Besides, when I told you that Sora and Cherry Blossom were here, you agreed to it in two replies. Looks like you remembered the two of us at that banquet.
In Kate's memory, it was already remembered as a feast, not a night club. I thought that not only Conne, but also the best fighting ability in the world, but no one could fix it.
"Speaking of which, they both liked you.
Yuri remembered the two of them at the banquet and smiled.
"They're glad they're drunk..."
Al shrugged with a distant eye. Because they were drunk, they were able to gain powerful connections for each race. But they don't know about this cone, which was a great shame from the point of view of those from Enefia. but at the same time I knew how great they were, but was therefore relieved that I didn't have to get half of them.
"The very fact that I was drunk on that spot may have shown how big they were. I guess I can at least get that drunk on that spot.
Lucius reputes the two with dismay. It was done because I didn't know it, but it was still a great feat. whether it is a praiseworthy feat or not.
"That's why. The Ellords participate in the usual exercises. I'll leave Brass to command the rest of the face.
Kate ends it by giving instructions to the regular army face to face. Seeing that, Coffle, who seemed to be free until now, finally raised his hand.
"So? What do we do?
"Oh, you guys crush the cross spears from Count Reames when they come. Above."
Kite hit and changed from the time of the Ellords and finished the instructions briefly. The old ministers of the Duke's family were also used to kite's ways and connections, so there was no question. On the contrary, I even felt nostalgia.
"Is that all? Well, now it feels like kite.
"Well, it's your husband. This appropriateness. I don't think you're willing to do it.
"Oh? A testament to my trust in your prowess... uh, no, let alone... oh, I knew I wouldn't. Cohul, Yuhara. You guys lead the troops and lurk to the designated point.
Upon hearing the words of his brothers and sisters in Kofr and Yuhara, Kate pondered and modified the operation. Apparently, something bothered me. Seeing how it goes makes Stra seem just a little funny.
"Oh? That's unusual. Is your husband changing his operation?
"Sort of. Stra, stella.
"Ha, my lord.
"What? Lord.
Stella responds to Kite's call, who was in her seat and who was holding back next to Kite. In the first operation, along with Kofr, they also planned to lead gestures to prevent the lateral spear of Count Reames, who would appear around the school.
"You two join Kuzha in the talks. After that, as soon as you hear from me, make your way out of the Duke's mansion. Let the gestures lurk.
Originally their gestures are covert and appropriate for the task of hiding and guarding. So it was an instruction.
"Got it, Lord.
"Okay. … so, my lord. For what reason should we participate in the meeting?
So far the school side has only been contacted by the Duke's house as a meeting with Kuzha. The contents of the talks were also talks associated with the loss of fighting power during the exercise, and there was no connection between the brothers and sisters responsible for the work behind the Duke's house.
"I was wondering if it was time to allow access to East Town. If I introduce the two of you to the back of the city at that time, even if you two are in the talks, you'll get the point, right?
Actually, this is something Kate has only cared about a little for a long time. As things stand, privacy was considerably restricted, including for teachers, and unwanted problems could have arisen in the school.
With action already liberalized, let's grant access to the colored streets of East Town. Well, it's weirder to be able to bring in a woman like Kate. Humans, men and women, accumulate what they accumulate. That's all I can't deny more than being a creature.
"Besides, this time the fool has also taken the liberty of entering East Town and being contacted by the hand of Laemes. If you can't control yourself, it's easier to manage it on a permit basis.
"I'm sorry, my lord. We just can't manage...
As the one who partitions the back town of East Town, Stra felt responsible for Reames' hands entering this time. Besides, I haven't given any thought to the boy who left.
As a matter of fact, they don't know that Toshiki Boy was contacted just outside the school at this point. Knowing the danger, it was not thought that there were those who would leave unprepared outside the bond. It's hard to understand if it's intriguing or something, but only this point was just as foolish as the kites would have liked to have their heads. What Kate and the others feared was more serious than Kate expected.
Note that when this is discovered and few other students are walking around the junction, Tina will lay a new junction to monitor entry and exit, but leave that aside.
"No, you don't have a choice. Exactly because you can't get into and out of the city without being provided with an official ID for the Laemes family. Besides, it's the responsibility of the guy who went to East Town on his own about the idiot. I don't know you. I hear there were other guys who went into East Town, but they're all saying no.
As Kate and the others know, there were a handful of students who secretly broke into Higashimachi besides Junki Boy. That they had been properly reprimanded, but this was one of the reasons that deepened the fears of the kites.
Incidentally, there was a little bit of a choice when a secret detective entered the city. Neither the matter of Heavenly Cherry Blossom School, nor the series of problems that begin with Brad Auga, is now even out of place in McDawell territory. There is no way to explain the situation to the guards who monitor their entry and exit from the city, and as things stand, they lacked the means to monitor their entry and exit.
"Well, let's keep an eye out for defective students in the future.
"Oh, come on. Oh, who put their hands on what kind of woman here anyway, because there's no need to report it?
It is a serious stra. I was able to raise the customer information of the students who used my store. Exactly as a kite, there was no use for that information where I had it, so I'll include it just in case.
"I know.
Hehe, and a stra who laughs gracefully and says so. Kate sees it and ends her instructions to the two of them.
"So, Kuzha, Fine. You guys rush to school as soon as there's a raid with me as originally planned. As soon as you arrive, join the bandit crusade... Oh, speaking of which, I secretly offered you permission to enter East Town earlier. All of a sudden, you're not allowed to enter Higashimachi. The students' sexuality should also be taken into account, to the extent that they think about it.
The cherry blossoms will know the circumstances, but those who do not otherwise know who Kikuchi etc. Kate is. However, it should seem to me to the extent that the students took care not to be stupid, Kate thought. but i could easily imagine that this would surely create a misunderstanding just because kite thinks so.
"I don't think it will ever happen..."
"I don't know..."
"Hmm? Why? Is something wrong?
With Yuri and Tina's words, Kate tilts her neck. One of his several drawbacks was that he thought he had some faith in his femininity.
"Think of your brother with your hands on your chest.
Kuzha, who came to the same conclusion, tells Kate with his white eyes. Even if there were cherry blossoms on this occasion, I would have returned the same words. That's how the secret talks ended while a few questions remained about Kite.
