Sword of the Philosopher

The destination location is a town that has not appeared in the game. Nevertheless, this is a trade route and a place with many people, and Abel and the others used to base their activities here.

Apparently, by making a request in the carriage, Abel will make you associate with the people of the organization in this town. He also said he needed to issue a decree in this town, so he was to rest in this town once.

"I'm going to go see someone who can help me now... what about Sophia and the others?

"We'll wait here."

Sophia answered my question that way.

"We're observing the Marquis' movements. I know Master Luon uses demons, but I think it's better to have someone who can move quickly."

"Then I asked for it."

"And Master Luon."

"Hmm?"

When he asked back, Sophia looked at him,

"I think Master Luon's strength would be fine, but let's not just impose it"

"Thanks"

Walk out after responding. The rendezvous is out of town. That's where I'm supposed to meet Yuska's childhood friend.

Although childhood is familiar, the presence of the protagonist, Yusuka, cannot be confirmed...... it is definitely outside the boundaries of the scenario, but the question is, where is it out of the scenario? Assuming it's different from the beginning...

"No, I can't help thinking about it"

The rail called the game scenario is already off. Rather than fix it, use the information in the game and defeat Nehmeisa. This should be the right choice.

Nevertheless, what should we do to get there...... should we have the Marquises on our side more like Richard's proposal than we have one of the Marquis of the Four Dragons named Exon on our side?

Between the various ideas, we reach the place that Abel has designated. Vacant land off the town. I'm not using magic, I guess it's simply less popular.

I've been waiting here a long time. At that time,

"... Thank you for waiting"

A somewhat nervous woman's voice. Moving his eyes, there stood the intended person.

The equipment consists of leather armor and a sword on the hips. Cedar eyes for a pleasant look on shortcut brown hair. Character is if Yusuka is a prudent person, she feels like an actionist or something. His name is Katra-Yulet.

"Uh, are you listening?

She nodded small at my inquiry.

"Right. My name is Luon-Maddin. Actually, I wanted some people, and I asked Abel, the leader of the organization. As a result, you were called."

"It's me, are you sure?

Confirmation Question. I can't help but suspect because they didn't call me abruptly.

"... can I just check around for a little bit?

Katra nods at these words. Then I'll put my hands on the sword pattern.

"One question, can you use 'Innovation'?

To the question, Katra shook her head left and right.

Hmm, certain events, not levels, were mandatory for her to master the depths. I also had the advantage of not having to level up in the game, but given the current situation, this is completely shackled.

Can you master the depths without any problems even without that event...... the question is not just that. I can tell from the fact that she hasn't mastered the depths in front of me that she's not very capable. Then, to grow from here...

Watch Katra pull out her sword as she ponders. Because I've been through quite a bit of combat, or a lot better than a normal adventurer.

Well... I thought she was coming at me, but she wouldn't move. They're watching this way out.

Should I set this up? How does it move make you guess whether you have combat experience or not?

Step in first. Katra responds and takes my sword, but doesn't look like she can afford to fight back.

Can't you follow me... I'll set up a chase here. When he released the spike, Katra shrugged with a piece of paper as she pursued him with her eyes.

The movement is quite something like that. She is a human being who traveled all over the place as an adventurer without any experience such as a soldier... but with her original skill, she clearly lacks the strength to cross with the Marquis.

The continued slaughter also bounces back at Katra somehow - and here she went on a turning offense. From a thoughtful personality or daring to attack me.

In combat, it is greatly divided between people who are better at offense. If it's about me or Sophia, it doesn't matter if they're good at it or not, they're both taking it to the same technical level, but in Katra's case, that's not the case either.

Apparently, she moves better when she turns to attack. I'll try to fight back while I attack, but it's obviously moving better than when I was turning to take it. However, in her case, it is a way of fighting that relies on the senses, and this will eventually bring the limits. It's a part of it that needs to be corrected... plus, naturally, there are lots of gaps, and I'm pretty sure I still don't have enough training.

- In the fight against the Demon King, the characters who became allies during the game became strong enough to fight if they fought. I think Katra has qualities that will make her just as strong again... but at this stage, she is still in shape. At this rate, it may be far from the day to challenge the Marquis. Nevertheless,

"You should have more fighting power..."

Play her unleashed sword as she squeals so. I slipped right into my nose and stuck my sword in my neck.

Katra stops moving. Not to mention, the word was a fitting settlement.

"... yeah, okay. Thanks."

To thank her, Katra breathed. Are you dissatisfied with the contents of the battle or something?

"... Are you sure it's okay with me?

Ask again. And I smiled and replied.

"I'm not looking for instant combat. Besides, I understand some of your abilities from the meeting you just had. It has stretching qualities."

"Quality......"

Katra drops her eyes on her own body.

"Am I?"

"You can be a little more confident... it's also a big point to be a woman personally. I wanted to ask for an escort, because they're women."

"Really...... ok"

It didn't look entirely convincing, but she admitted.

In the meantime, it looks like you can act with the candidates for emperor...... I have to lead Abel and Katra more than no Yusuka. We have to do it right.

And there's only one remaining emperor candidate... but honestly, it's hard to find that person. Because even in the game, they are stumbling across people.

I just want that person to be one of us.

"May I call you Mr. Leon?"

Katra asks. I interrupt my thoughts and nod instantly.

"Oh, I don't mind...... and can I ask you a few questions?

"Yes."

"I need to know about a simple profile. Where are you from or something?

... that she might know about Yusuka, so she decides to confirm things around it from public discourse. Most of all, I don't think you know much about Yusuka, who became a soldier, so I don't think you have much hope.

"- But this is how you can throw yourself into the rebel group? Exactly. I don't think the enemy will look into your town and do something about it... but aren't we in the Imperial Army as long as we know each other?

"Sure, the military has childhood friends"

"You might fight that man."

to that word...... Katra said,

Too unexpected words were uttered.

"I know...... but I am determined to fight. I don't know if I can win, but I'm sure I'll save Yusuka... by becoming a knight and waving his sword."
