The Branded Female Fencer

The Witch's Regiment, Part 11 - Who Plays the Dojo

"Sister, about the future..."

"I don't want it. I have a means of transmission called birds. I'll always know where you guys are and what you're doing, and I'll come up if I have to. But that's not the case for the occasions I'm needed anymore. If I may, I don't want to be involved in the battle anymore."

"Um, okay, but..."

While Anomaly said Munyamunya in her mouth, Ayard just rode the giant bird of the demon of use and left. Later the remaining witches dropped it off, but everyone saw Draphanella when Ayyad was eventually invisible. Apparently, the compiler of the witches who betrayed Fairtoose was Drafanella.

Drafanella takes a breath and turns again to Doom and Anomaly.

"So, for the future,"

"Oh, right. Well, they say it's roughly the same. As long as you don't get in the way of our plan, we just need you to keep living the way you always have. I guess I won't be the first to drive you out in the future. 'Cause you have too much power."

"I hope so. No matter how inevitable it was for us, this kind of thing is no longer..."

"Well. I can't help but have fun, but I'm sure you're sad."

Doom spinned words of sympathy in his mouth, but the look was completely on his face. Drafanella didn't see the look on her face because she was slightly nagging, but the witches around her were staring at Doom with a toothpick. It was obvious from that look that the witches did not commit such treason with their personal greed, but I guess that's why self-blame doesn't disappear. But I wouldn't have imagined that witches with many healthy hearts would even entertain Doom with the look on their faces.

Drafanella continues to add and subtract nagging.

"So, this is the disposition of the witches we captured."

"I'll take over on that. Master Oranzebul tells me not to let the extra dead die. A few years after the launch of the plan... we'll be locked somewhere until then, will you accept that?

"That's... inevitable. I want to be judged by them when it's all done. Until then..."

"Don't worry. I'll do it right here."

I slapped Draphanella so that Anomaly could calm down and gently slapped her on the back. Doom felt strange about that gesture that made him strange, but Drafanella seems to be terrified of what she did to the exterior, and the last one left with the other witches as she leaked her whimper. Drafanella was playing the villain by pushing her heart to death in the middle of the battle, but originally she seemed to have finally reached her limit.

And after dropping off the witches who pulled up with a sad look, Doom and Anomaly laughed with their bellies like they were finally overwhelmed when they looked at each other.

"Ahhhh! Hey, Anomaly, did you see that? The faces of the witches as they leave. Come on! Let's see this side of the road with a vendetta! You said that you would be the one who brought this betrayal!

"Hi-ha-hi-ha! Technically, it seems that Hidun was the one who brought the story up. Most importantly, it was Drafanella 100 years ago who brought up the betrayal. You betrayed me so ready, I can't believe I'm turning away now. It's a masterpiece!

Doom and Anomaly have been the grieving faces of the witches for some time, especially Drafanella, and an irrepressible expression of frustration somewhere in Ayyad. Sometimes I would feel sorry for them if they were normal people, but for these two their faces were the best pleasure of any comedy.

After a moment of laughter, Doom and Anomaly began withdrawing from this operation. The demon kings had already finished their service, and their bodies had rotted, and they had returned to the earth. Hekatonkale and the others disappeared, and Maneater was returning the figure from the giant statue to the human form. The point was that there was little need to withdraw, but just in case, Anomaly was confirming the itinerary for self-destruction that she had planted with the Demon Kings.

Doom observes such anomaly. Anomaly eventually noticed Doom's unusual behavior.

"Doom, you've already done your job. Why don't you just pull it out?

"Well, that's good. I need to ask you something more than that. Anomaly, even though you're not brainwashing Orangeables, how can you help him?

It's settled, for research.

Anomaly's answer was really simple and clear. Doom seems somewhat bored with instant answers.

"You can do research anywhere."

"Well, as long as I have time and money. That's always the problem. Surely Doom is right, it would be best to do it quietly, secluded, as long as you have the time. That's what I've been doing, and it's true that doing it on the back is harder to discover. But I'm sure Orangeables and Draphanella are right, we don't have time for this. I need to complete my current research at all costs. I'll use what I can use for that. That's the conclusion my brain came up with."

"Time, hey... sure, that's always the key"

As Doom set aside and showed, Anomaly realized that Doom had also reached another truth.

"Doom, did you notice?"

"Well, I'm an evil spirit, and I didn't like it, but I realized it."

"I see. Let's reassess your assessment of you a little bit. Surely there are surprisingly many people who are aware of this fact themselves. At my glance, Oranzeble, Meeschatres, Stelvese, Notice and Draphanella. And so is pure fake white fun."

"Heh, there's that exorcist association tyrant. Surprisingly delicate."

I showed Doom pretending to impress me. Anomaly was more serious than ever.

"Pure fake white pleasure is not just a tyrant. He would look all unscrupulous and make very delicate calculations. I'm just certain he's on the bet. I guess there was something about him."

"You mean with Brady Maria?

"That's true, too. The fact that he became the head of the Magic Society itself was no longer helpless."

"You don't want to know more about him. Stalker?"

"Information is important, Doom. You think so, don't you?

It was a glaring look at everything about Anomaly, but Doom stopped laughing for only a moment, but he still laughed off. If you try it as a doom, it would have been an act to keep you from understanding your true intentions. How far does Anomaly know? Or everything? Doom's doubts swelled, but there's no way to be sure of them.

Again, anomalies are not the only ones. Once again, Doom recognized it that way.

"Well, I guess that happens. Did you pay attention to Pure Fake White Leisure from the beginning?

"Well. In one age, there is no doubt that there are people who are rarely as brilliant as they are. I've been paying some attention since he was born. I guess the Orange Bull missed him because he decided it would be a more favorable development for him. That's what's happening now."

"Sure. Is he gonna be ready soon?

"Apparently. Exactly. This time it will be in Arnelia's ear as well. I'm looking forward to seeing what the fox will do."

As a doom, I didn't really feel the same way about Anomaly, but I did feel the same way about Doom as Anomaly. Doom's ability does not allow adequate surveillance within Arnelia. Therefore, for Doom, there is no way of knowing what is to be done within Arnelia until it comes out on the surface anyway. Doom must be a step behind when it comes to Arnelia, against Hidun and Bradymaria, each of whose men is infiltrating Arnelia.

Miriazal would not have thought that far and provided the Alphilis and the others with accommodation, but there was no doubt that the defensive lines were stretched multiple times because of the original location where the Deep Green Palace situation was highly hidden. As for Doom, he wanted to know what was going on inside Arnelia, but now he had more to do than that.

Then I have another assignment to take care of.

"You're busy if you can't use your lifeless. I wonder if he worked the most. Still wondering if he won't be relieved of his surveillance assignment for Alphilis?

"I asked for more examples than that, right?

"Indeed, your proposal is interesting. I know you'll rebel against Orangeable's orders, but as far as I'm concerned, there's nothing wrong with it if the research goes on. Let's proceed as you requested. You can say the witch fought back harder than you thought."

To put it that way, Anomaly takes the witches she left behind and keeps them in one place to prepare for the transfer. When Doom approached Fairtoose, one of them, he looked down and took the monkey.

Has Fairtoose already regained his strength, or has he taken Doom in a tremendous shape?
