Dios scratched his head and opened his mouth pointing to the map he had spread to the long desk.

"There are two paths to the Berk Fortress. Straight south on the road, you can think there's a complete trap over here. Assassins, armies, bandits, bandits. The other is to enter the Grenada Frontier Border Border from the side of the small Baom, which lies beyond Mount Himmel, one of the mountains of the Glaotherm Mountains to the east."

"There's horseback riding too. We can't cross Mount Himmel."

"Where we chose to go south, total annihilation is inevitable. Then if we're going to give you the chance to survive a little more, we're going to have to cross Mount Himmel."

Tris, next to Dios, also nodded.

"Let's split into two hands. You can't just let all the soldiers go to Mount Himmel. I also need a positive movement. Dios, your Lord will lead an infantry of 50 with the cavalry to welcome you to the Berk Fortress, and if you meet an enemy on the road, throw away your luggage and ask the Grinda Border Uncle for help at all costs. Is that okay with you, Princess?

Liz looked uncomfortable but nodded small after a while.

"What about the old man?

"Noh crosses the mountain with the princess"

"I'm too old for this…………."

"Huh, I still can't beat youngsters, etc."

"Really? I've been thinning around my arms lately."

"Nano!? Are you sure!?

Only a little brightness returned to the ops command room to Liz's joke.

Having been served a sumptuous meal, Biru, who had finished his meal, sat satisfied in bed.

Liz is right, I think she's been greeted as a guest.

There was no investigation, but a soldier on guard stands in front of the door.

It's a world where you're on your own to be on guard over there, but you don't know the right or left for Biru.

I don't move around without darkness. Let's just say what they're doing is pointless.

I just get upside down where I said it, that's all I want, but it could put my position at risk.

So this is how I sit down and come up with an idea of what to do.

But when drowsiness struck me without a good idea, someone suddenly opened the door and came in.

- It's Liz.

"I'm sorry. I have a little urgent business to attend to..."

"What's going on?

"We're moving our base, and we're leaving tonight."

"…… you mean?

"We have to return this place to the First Imperial Army, so Hiro won't be able to stay."

"That is…………………… a problem."

Stranger land, thrown out to places neither right nor left can tell.

And at night. Nothing would scare me more.

I just want to figure out what to do here, but Liz looks in a hurry somewhere.

Maybe I don't have time to think about it.

Then..., Billu made a decision.

"Can I follow you?

"Eh."

"That...... can't it?

"Fine... it's going to be such a hard trip. If I suck, I could die. Is that okay with you?

"I don't mind. Either way. If you're thrown out on your own on a night like this, you're gonna die."

"Exactly. I won't throw it out without a sentence. A little bit more accommodating, even food…………"

"I owe you a meal. There is a chance that I will return the favor with vengeance... but if you don't mind following me, I will."

"Hiro is unusual."

"Right. They say that a lot."

- Mostly to Fukutaro, though.

In the central square of the fort, the area was lit by bonfires.

The full moon peeks into my face from the clouds and looks down at this one.

As we followed Liz behind us and reached the front gate of the fort, Serveras ran over to Liz.

There were many soldiers waiting at the entrance.

At the beginning of it was Dios, next to whom stood a man in his early 40s with muscular bones.

The man hands Liz a chestnut-haired horse.

"Tris, thank you for coming."

"Yes!"

Liz thanked her and then crossed over to the horse without any hassle.

Moments, Don from behind - and cheers come to a boil.

If Biru looked back in surprise, there were many soldiers from the fort dropping off when they had gathered.

"Lady Celia Estreya, be careful!

"Hail Celia Estreya!

"Long live the Grand Empire of Grants!

"Bless the Spirit King!

"Grants Twelve God bless you!

Liz smiles and waves her hands back loudly.

The light of the full moon illuminated her, increasing the attraction of the girl and flourishing like a fairy.

So I cheered again.

Biru follows Liz's horse not too far away.

"When the fort disappears... we'll split it in two hands. Follow me."

Liz's voice comes from overhead.

"Yeah."

After walking silently for about two hours, looking back, the fort was invisible in darkness.

It was Liz who took the first action.

I jumped off my horse and shouted at Tris.

"Tris! I need you to show me the way!

"I wonder if the princess is the one to talk about old age."

Tris ran out front of Liz.

"Hiro, I'm coming!

Biru's left hand was grabbed by Liz and forced to run.

Behind it was a division between a soldier leaving the line and a soldier going on without a thing.

Biru gets worried about how far he's going to run and how much strength he's going to continue to have.

If you look next door, you'll see the sickly Serveras looking cool.

- That's a wolf, just give me a little strength...

By the time the limits of Biru were near, Liz started walking.

Biru, who repeatedly breathes roughly, Liz is sweating on her forehead, but she was not disturbed by one breath.

"Are you okay?"

"Hey, hey, hey, hey."

"Really? Tell me when you're tough. You can take a break if you want..."

"You shouldn't be a princess. Spoil the boy and he will only be weak. It's what grows out of a valley of men."

I want to stick around but my mouth has a monopoly on oxygen, so that didn't come true.

Serverus is running around having fun, as if he's laughing at such a bird.

"Hiro is still a child. If you knock him out of the valley, he'll be dead."

"Mm-hmm? Wasn't that kid 16? That's what Dius tells me..."

"But you look like a child. You have to be nice."

"Mmmm? I do have a young face..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Hmm, I don't know."

Ha ha ha, took his gaze off Tris, who started laughing, and Biru looked behind him.

A large number of soldiers were following me.

While wearing heavy armor, my breath never seemed to fall off, even when I was disturbed.

Tris, an elderly man, is not even sweating.

- You're such a monster.

"Were there any leavers?

"There is no such weakness."

"Yes, good…………"

"So far so good. It will be possible to step into the mountains by morning sun. I can't seem to touch anyone's eyes."

"Is Dios better off?

"Don't worry. He's strong."

After walking for a while, the sky grew white and a large mountain was seen in front of me.

Bilu's hand is still held by Liz.

Are you getting used to it...... or are you forgetting, there's no better light in the bathroom than in the beginning.

Liz looked at me as I stepped into the entrance to the mountain.

Bilu turns his face bright red and waits for Liz's words. I never get used to all this.

"If you cross this mountain, there's a small Baom country, but it's safe there, and there's a beautiful city full of nature. But I can't stop by because I don't have time for this one."

I wanted to show you around. And Liz groans unfortunately and speaks to Tris.

"Have you reached out to your brother in the small country of Baom?

"I don't have to worry about that...... I just wanted to say, you can't be relieved. We can't abandon the possibility that this operation has been compromised."

Tris made a difficult face before opening his mouth again.

"Besides, we haven't sent anything to the small Baom countries this time, so we have to head to the Grenda Border Uncle territory immediately without any extra stimulus"

"…… right. Because of the size of the squadron, I think we'll find out soon enough."

"Nothing can be done against the Empire if it is noticed. You'll be evil inside."

"You seem to cling to weaknesses and you feel guilty."

"Grinda, if things settle down on the border, just send me an apology and I'll be fine."

"Either way, that would be rude."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Biru goes up a loose slope.

I heard it was a steep journey, but it was a perfect mountain for a picnic.

There are all kinds of flowers on the road and I sometimes see cute little animals.

"Hiro sounds like a lot of fun."

"Yeah. Because you heard it was dangerous. I was ready... Nice mountain. Don't think it's perfect for a nap."

"Heh, I agree with that. This Himmel Mountain can be easily climbed in the Glaotherm Mountains. But with so many monsters, it's such a noisy mountain that you can't even get through the trade. Still, I'm fine around here."

"Monsieur?

"Yes, the closer you get to the summit, the more violent it is. This time we have to go beyond there to the other side, so it's a tough journey, right?

I feel scared when I hear words from this beautiful girl that I only hear in the game.

It was strangely compelling because of its neat face.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you. I hope you're holding your chest up with Don in the back."

"Wow."

Serveras bark.

I'm going to protect you. There's a strange side talking about it.

Aiming for the top while pinching a small pause for 4 hours.

The sun was completely rising and the area was completely bright.

The more you raise your face, the more distance you can see the summit.

But - he showed up.

Two congested eyes on a large face move gliously to define the Births.

Peeping through the ripped mouth are yellow teeth that have fallen out everywhere.

The neck is thicker than the waist of Biru, and the belly in front of him is swollen like a balloon.

It was an ugly human-shaped monster.

"It's Ogle. It looks like he was originally human, but he's been told that the curse of the Spirit turned him into an ugly figure. If you are evicted from people and live in these mountains and attack travelers, you are a monster who devours human flesh."

Liz explains calmly.

"Besides, you're strong, but you're not intelligent, so you don't have that much trouble defeating them."

And when Liz said it, Serverus was running.

"Grrrr!"

A sharp fang flashed Ogle's neck, tot - with a light noise, Serveras landed on the ground.

With a bushy creepy sound, the top disappears from Ogle's neck and blood erupts.

Gross......, Biru turns away.

But beyond that, the sight spread that made me want to cover my eyes.

Because Ogle's head was rolling down the slope.

On the side of Liz, who saw how it was, she smiled like a flower blossomed.

"You see!

"……… yeah."

"That's Lord Serveras. Invisible toothpicks! Let me show you something wonderful."

"Wow."

In praise of Tris, Serverus responded with a pretend tail.

"I'm stronger than that. There's more of them."

To Liz, who says it with a fun face, Biru didn't know what to look like.
