The Branded Female Fencer

Demon Swordsman, Part 1 - Occupied Territories

"How's Lisa?

"I'm calm, but I have a terrible fever. You've never been able to do that before."

Miranda replies to Alphilis, who looks worried. Lisa had a high fever at some point. Alphilis, who didn't realize that, regrets his absence.

"I don't think it's a weird disease. Rest is best for now."

Uty is tight and nursing Lisa, and gives her own view. In the meantime, Aerial and Emerald are going to see what's going on around them. The other members have nothing to do and look out for Lisa worried.

"Uty, can't your magic cure you?

"Don't be impotent. Because healing magic isn't that convenient."

"If it's poison, I can handle it with water and dark restorative magic, but in Lisa's case, it's a lot due to overwork, so I thought resting was still the best"

Answer as Larna strokes Lisa's head. Everyone is drooling over that word.

"It's my first trip for Lisa, and if I care more..."

"The extra notice... is useless, big woman..."

Lisa's breath sounds constantly painful.

"I don't want to be pitied by a big woman... because I don't"

"I didn't do that till this time..."

"Lisa looks great, I'm sure."

Lisa's words were heard, and Miranda gently slapped Alphilis in the ear. Lisa is actually making it impossible on this journey. The blind Lisa cannot act like the Alphilis and others without constant sensors, and their fatigue is greater than that of the Alphilis. So I wish I could have had the burden reduced more on other occasions, but whether Lisa was the burden of not being very helpful in battle or the strength of her innate defeat again, Lisa was a character that never sounded weak from herself.

But compared to Alphilis and Miranda, who are working out, Lisa is physically inferior. That's why we finally reached our limit this time.

Such a fold, Aerial and Emerald return.

"Aerie, how'd it go?

"Emerald found one village nearby. It's a small village with no 1,000 people at most. But I don't even know what's going on inside. I didn't see anyone moving."

"Even though it's noon?

"Oh. Maybe there's something there."

Alphilis contemplates the word, but pulls that emerald is hard on its hem, pointing to the sky. When I saw it, the clouds were suspicious and the weather was still going to rain.

"You can't leave Lisa in the rain, and you can't say four or five. Aerie, Miranda will be with me first to make sure the village is safe. The other members came slowly later and waited in front of the village. Waiting to hear from you."

"Don't you have to take Daron?

"If we take Daron and make a fuss, we won't even be able to put together a story. Let's leave it with Lisa's escort."

We are all convinced by the alphilis that we are going to talk about immediately and move on to action. Miranda was staring at Alphilis with a strange feeling as to why she was becoming able to make a slightly longer, more collective decision.

And three leading Alphilis, Miranda and Aerial. When they enter the village, I see no one outside.

"It's quiet."

But it's not like there's no one out there.

"Well, there are signs. Don't be alarmed."

To the words of the Alphilis, the three advance through the village with heightened vigilance.

"At a time like this, I really appreciate Lisa's presence."

"Oh, at least I don't eat surprises."

"... I hear voices"

Aerial noticed as soon as possible and stopped the horse. Then, at first, the blurry voice gradually and clearly makes no sense.

"A woman's voice?

"You're screaming something."

"Shh!"

Two naked women jumped out of the shadows of the house at the same time as Aerial urged the two of them to shut up.

"Help me!

"No! Oh!

"Hey, what?

Alphilis was also surprised. In the meantime, several men glance at each other from behind the rudimentary looking women here.

"Yes, yes, the chase is over."

"Stop it, you're disgusting"

"Stop it, he's forced to like it."

"Well, sometimes this is bad, too. I'm tired of being normal."

"Well said, what's so normal about it? I'm only interested in the hole in the back."

Hehe, with humble conversation and laughter, the men are making a few faces. The women are running at a good foot, but they are tired or their feet are stuck. And acknowledging what the Alphilis and the others on the road look like, although they shook their bodies at first, they ask for help as if they were a little relieved when they found out they were women.

"Ha, help me!

"Can you let me know what's going on before then?

"If you look at that, you'll see!?

One of the women eats Alphilis like a little frustrated, but Alphilis doesn't deal with them.

"Come on? We're new to this village, so we have no idea what's going on. Normally, I think you're being pursued, but there's no evidence that this is a trap. Maybe it's your fault. Don't help me if you know what's going on, but I'm not so fond of you as to help me without knowing anything."

"Ugh."

Those men are mercenaries.

One ladder in the calm words of Alphilis, but the other became more desperate.

"They chose this village as a stopover, but it was bare. We give their comforters every day, every day..."

"And food is all you can eat on your own. They're going to eat it all up until this winter's stockpile."

"Evidence?

Alphilis says it even more calmly. Neither were the women frightened this time by the words, pointing straight at the building.

"We have their chief in that building. If you listen to me, you'll see, and the food storage is already close to the sky. I was wondering if you could see that."

"I see. Let me check it out later, just in case, okay? Let's get rid of those men first."

Alpha Reese is out front covering the women. Seeing how it goes doesn't change the look on the men's faces.

"Hey, we got more prey."

"Right. It's a banquet tonight, man."

"I guess every day."

"Tiny!

Guhahahaha, and the men raise their nasty voices. So Alphilis was convinced. That there would be no mistake in talking about the women.

"You guys, if you're going down hard, fine. If you don't back down..."

"Hey, what are you gonna do?

To the voices of the men, Alphilis punches the ground with a whip he was wearing on his hips.

"You're gonna look me in the eye, aren't you?

"Heh..."

The men seemed to feel something when they saw how Alphilis hit the ground with a whip. There has already been no inferior laughter until earlier, and everyone is watching the Alphilis and the others with a wake-up look from unusual excitement.

"Well, I guess there's just something to be said. Six of us would be a little disadvantaged if we had a round back."

"If you get it, will you back off? I don't want to hurt you for nothing."

"Be nice. But you're not gonna take us too far, are you?

The leading man spits and whistles his fingers. Then will the men come out of the building there?

"This is..."

"Ten, 20... 50 is light."

"Numbers are not an issue, but they are surrounded more than that. This is against you, Alfie."

Each of the three formed a circle on his back, and the two villager women entered the spot to hug each other. But neither the Alphilis nor the others can afford to worry about them already.

Each of the men who showed up had a weapon in his hand. Without alarm, the expression shows that apparently everyone is a mercenary with more arms than that. That's more than 50 people lightly. I guess he's still here in this condition.

"It was a breeze. We should have assumed that there would be a significant number of people, even if they were small enough to occupy the village."

"It's a breakthrough for now. You can't stay surrounded. You're too disadvantaged."

"Open the bloodpath with my Sylphide. Follow me."

"" Okay. ""

"Let's go!
