The Branded Female Fencer
In the Land of the Beastman, Part 3 ~ Suggestions ~
And behind a tavern in Wold. Even the crowded meesia doesn't have people on the back streets so far. Sometimes a drifter flashing at work or a drunk falling down at night, but otherwise people don't come to this place. No fool invites danger himself.
Two people gather there. One is Amur. And the other was the line. When the belated line confirmed that Amur was there, he turned to a harsh and serious tone and spoke.
"What do you mean, Beast Man? It's a little booze seat joke to provoke me. Then I won't let you do it."
"Oh good man. It's a big deal to realize the killing of an athlete and act like you're not even familiar with it. How accustomed are you?
"No strange tone. You don't look like such a womanizer, you."
When I saw the line laugh invincibly, Amur laughed as well.
"I'm sorry. If you don't keep it in this tone, you can't keep your fierce personality down."
"You're familiar with it. Maybe half of it's a hobby."
"I'd say so. Now, let's get down to business with this joke."
Amur's eyes glowed sharply.
"I'd like to ask Alexandria's nominee."
"About what?
"You can tobo. But no use, Atashi knows your real name, too. Why don't you snitch on the face of Nights of Nights and tell me where you're going?
"... you're a total wolf. So, what can I do for you?
"That would be very helpful to talk about quickly."
Amur slaps his hands happily. But his eyes were still sharp, and he was still shining light.
"I need you to look into something. Do you know what happens to demon kings everywhere?
"Oh, sort of."
"Atashi made one hypothesis. I wonder if I can determine the laws of demon kings that occur everywhere. So I've got people from various institutions working with me, but I'm not having enough trouble with it. I think I'm about to grab something, but it feels like I'm running out of pawns right now."
"You mean threaten me and pawn me?
"There's nothing to threaten! This is a reciprocal partnership. I'll give you the information you have."
"What if I told you I needed it?
"That's not possible. Because this is also about your country, Alexandria."
Amur said away confidently, but the line only reacted secretly, and it moved her mind less. He shook his head sideways and indicated a willingness to deny it.
"But it's still none of my business. I am the one who abandoned my country. I'm not going to do that country any more."
"Really? Then what if I were told that this incident also had something to do with the fact that Florence-Utina-Boltheiren's death, which was also your fiancée?
The look on the face of the line frightens Russia at Amur's words. Stunning came first, and a sad expression came to mind, followed by the colour of anger. The line puts its hands on the hips sword.
"You... where did you get that?
"When you split the identity of Atashi, Atashi is a member of Groussard's army. It's hard for people to think that Gruzaldo is a land of beasts and that it's just a bunch of people who don't get too far around their heads. Atashi fought on the southern front of Gruzaldo when he was younger, and the other barbarians taught him how to fight. In fighting their opponents, who are not very disgusting with us Beasts because of their physical abilities, I realized that it is information that shapes the war. Since then, Atashi has gathered information about a large country that can shoulder to shoulder with Groussard when he leads a southern front. Naturally Alexandria is among them.
You're a lot more celebrity than you think you are, aren't you? Because he was considered to be the direct soldier of Diore and one of those who would succeed her. It doesn't seem to be developed in countries yet, but in countries with decent intelligence, your departure is known. But I'm not sure that's the truth. "
"... go on"
"And perhaps Atashi is looking into the situation at the time more than you. In your country, your companions were moving around to restore your honor, starting with Diore. If you are willing, you may be able to regain your status and honor in your country. 'Cause that diore can't possibly take an unconsciousness. If she meant it, even if you were a bad person, you wouldn't have been guilty.' Cause that's all the credit the knight has."
"Or maybe it is. But I didn't want it. Master Diore is just in a delicate position. I'm sorry I pulled that leg any further.
Besides, my passion for a knight has cooled off. Even if I could return the stigma, I wouldn't want to serve that country again. "
"... people's justice, their beliefs, and their essence are not so easy to change. You'd know better if you lived a little longer."
"I hope so. So, instead of helping me return my stigma, you're asking me to find the Demon King?
"In a tangible way. But you should want to know the truth. You don't have to want honor, do you? And the spark that's tickling in Alexandria will soon involve you. I'm sure you can't be irrelevant. You don't want to lose something important again then, do you?
Amur's tone was gentle. That seemed to be telling itself rather than telling the line. But Rhine was in the mood for an unexpected opponent to scratch the depths of his heart, and he wasn't looking for Amur.
But the conclusion had already been reached. Whatever Rhine thought of his country, Rhine knew exactly what he couldn't do without seeing it.
