The Branded Female Fencer

While Alphilis holds Miranda back, he turns to Kazas with a calm look.

"What you say is right and wrong"

"Well, what about that mind?

"I studied academics myself, too. I know very well that ethics tends to be left behind for academic progress. 'Cause that's what makes progress smoother. But my teacher taught me that once. It means' Words are sometimes stronger than swords and magic '"

"I know that word, too. That's the word of Laurent, a scholar 200 years ago."

"I don't even know whose word it is. But you have no idea what that means. You may be very smart, but unfortunately you're not as stupid as a 4-year-old in some ways."

"... is it just a mercenary preaching to me, who has five degrees and became a professor at the age of 14? Funny."

Kazas seems more intrigued than angry. scholars until the emotional response. It was also the

Alphilis continues without flinching.

"To give an extreme example, if the king says, 'It's war,' there can be war. Even if it was personal."

"It's rare that so much centralization is done to kings nowadays, but there will be instances of that sometimes. I'm not a king, so it doesn't apply."

"That's what's wrong with you. You don't know yourself too well."

"You think you can understand me just now?

"I can't talk about you, but it's more common. Scholars sometimes speak worse than kings. 'Cause the king's words can only be spread domestically at best, but human words that are not tied to scholars or national frameworks can spread across the continent, depending on their individual visibility."

"Hmm, sure. I know my name in the eastern part of the continent."

"You seem like a famous scholar, so you should be more responsible for your words. About the aftermath of what happens in your own words. Even if we do not say it all, we need to consider it, at least to the extent we can think of it, and consider measures that could serve as a jetty. If you say you can't do that either, you better not say anything. Not only are there many people who are socially annoyed, but they will also reduce your life expectancy."

"My life?

Kazas didn't seem to think about that either, giving him a surprise look.

"Yeah. Let's just say there was a war in the wake of one of your words. It's better to wage war unilaterally, but you're definitely the one who will be held accountable when you lose as a result. Isn't that what humans are for? You're reading about the time the witch trial happened, right?

"... sure, you have a verse in mind"

Witches are also a group that exists separately from the Church of Witchcraft, and it is said that they have been rooted in each land for a longer time than the Church of Witchcraft. The race known as witches was originally like scholars, doctors and teachers who could use witchcraft, imparting wisdom of life to ignorant citizens, not just unusable. But they who exercise power and knowledge beyond the reach of the inhabitants were held accountable when bad things happened in the land. Because of his speech, the people pressed the witch to take responsibility when something bad happened according to the word. It is also true that the circumstance somewhat obscured the conspiracy of expanding the powers of the Magic Church.

At the end of the sentence, what would be a witch trial - sounds good when it comes to trial, but it was mostly like executing a witch unilaterally without even hearing her say it - took place, and one witch after another disappeared from the continent. As a result, the land was rough and the witch's presence was known to people for the first time since the demons began to buzz, but it was already too late. Many of the surviving witches have become loving to humans and inhabiting hiding.

The role of the original witches was then to be shared between the Sorcery Church and the Arnelian Church, but neither do they know what they are doing without the witches.

Make it Kazas. I know about those days in books, and I thought it wasn't good because I was stunned by folk stupidity at the time and would do things in a way that would make me blame myself for being one of the witches, but I wasn't surprised it was an event that applied to me. I accidentally roar at that point.

"... if it's not comprehensive, apparently I have to admit that your words make sense"

"I'm glad you understand."

Alphilis smiles with a grin. Miranda seems to be having trouble doing the fist she shook up, grated. But Lisa, who watched the interaction, had something on her mind.

"(So was the interaction in the guild, alphilis is very pure, while at the same time there is a very cold part. I hope that one doesn't take her life. What the hell has she seen in her life so far?

But such a concern of Lisa, apparently Kazas became more interested in Alphilis than convinced.

"But while you are a mercenary, you also seem to be academically savvy inside. During the conversation, the word master came up, which one of you was the mentor?

"Do you know what Aldrius-Serg-Reselwerk is?

"! Naturally, he's one of my esteemed ones!

Kazas stuffed me in the alphilis with sparkling eyes. And mostly squeeze her hand.

"That one is also the one whose historical facts are riddled with mystery. Who is such an all-powerful genius, yet who gave up all power and made the news disappear. I didn't know I could find out the upside of that person. How lucky I am!

"Ha..."

"I would love to hear from him if you like!!

"Well, I hope so."

"Then hurry up! It starts with being one of his..."

"(Why do all the weird people around me stop by -?

The hand of salvation is delivered from the unexpected as Alphilis screams in his heart.

"Doctor, it's time to go first? You can take your time, but I'm in a hurry."

"Oops, you did. Well, we'll just have to look into her place, her room, etc., and we'll see if we can find her tonight or tomorrow."

"(No way the moment of the birth of the stalker!?

Fenna advised Rhine and Kazas the moment Alphilis was imprisoned for such paranoia.

"If you're going first, you should be careful."

"Why, dark-elf hey"

The line asks indignantly. But Fenna no longer cares either.

"I just checked that the year of the building is obviously different after the second basement and on this first basement floor. The labyrinth is obviously something that was made later. And there's only one reason to make the building a labyrinth.

"... intruder control."

The line answers. No wonder the way the line thinks about it, Alphilis.

"If it's a dungeon, isn't it natural in the labyrinth?

"Alphilis, you're an asshole, right?

"Hey, what the fuck! Because I don't want you to tell me you're an asshole or anything!

"No, you're an asshole. Think about it, the purpose of creating a labyrinth is to prevent intruders. Then why do you want to prevent intruders?

"... because there's something you don't want to be seen?

"That's right. It's a treasure, or simply a maze in a fortress. But if it's treasure, you don't have to bother creating a new dungeon. Anyway, it takes a lot of money and effort to create the dungeon itself, and 'Here's a treasure' is like spreading it from yourself. and possibilities to do so"

"... what?

"One of the possibilities, but I think you sealed something nasty. But that one's pretty credible."

"Do you have a basis?

Now Miranda is just adding that she's already calmly back. The line snorts at Miranda's words.

"Oh. This request, this is actually the third call, but none of the guys have come home so far"

"What!?

"I've been making money around here lately. There was the one who got close in it, but it was collected in the first call seven days ago. I quit because I'm suspicious. But it won't be easy for him to come back."

"Is it possible you went somewhere like that?

Now Nia asks.

"Leave me alone with my proposal to her?

"It's..."

"I was getting ready for a little event, too, because it's going to be a very happy seat. I thought it was suspicious. I started my own investigation. The woman who was supposed to be his daughter-in-law asked me to do it. Then I just got confirmation, but 10 people haven't come home."

"Still, with just 10 people, it's not so much a certainty, is it?

"It's a matter of probability. All of the 10 people we checked, right? Even the guild is a little bit of a rumor. Besides, there's a lot of smelly talk here."

"Is there anything else?

"The kid suddenly disappeared, but the demons of the woods suddenly disappeared, and the dead would rise up, so much more. That's a common Square Mountain story, but before that, Krums and Zamwed went into a state of war."

"What the hell!?

Now Fenna surprised me. That would be so. Indirectly, Krums is an enemy to Fenna. But I don't know the circumstances. The line goes on.

"There are a number of strange things about the process. First, that the second prince was stabbed to death by his lowest surname. And the first prince died of a sudden illness, he said. In the passing of another successive prince, the king said, his hard work had fallen. In the wake of those circumstances, a third prince, who had not been informed for some time, suddenly named the king's deputy. The king no longer has the power to lead the country, so he leads the country on his behalf. But those princes were stupid and famous, so naturally the heavy ministers disagreed. Then..."

"They slaughtered and killed everyone who disagreed on the spot. Some of them seem to have made a name for themselves as martial officers, but the survivors say with their mouths shut that they were as strong as demon kings. But thanks to the prince, he said he regained his front with Zamwed. They also say I'm rather pushing it."

Fenna can't block her open mouth. That's right, because my revenge lived. I checked once after I defeated that tree demon, but all the soldiers were dead. No, I could only confirm it as a shard, so I couldn't identify the body. Naturally, I didn't think the prince who injured his hand could get away with it.

With a stale Fenna on her ass, Lisa keeps asking questions.

"Do you have any idea what happened to a man named Zerbados?

"No, you don't. What's wrong with that man?

"I was just curious. Maybe it's a big part of it."

"Hmm... you guys know something, too. Right."

Line showing interest in Lisa's question. But...

"Yeah well. But now we're in a hurry. Perhaps. We're losing motion on the third basement."

"What!? You mean a human being?

"I'm afraid I don't know if everything is human, but... what do you do, Alfie?

"You don't have to ask me, let's hurry!

A line that speeds up the stride in the derision of the word. Everyone's consciousness had already leaned towards the rescue of the others, but only Fenna knew that the vendetta was alive and remained with complex emotions.
