The Branded Female Fencer

Hall of Return (Instead), Part 5 - Conversation Under the Sky

During the same period, Alphilis had returned from Begrad. Another unit of Rosetta and Tasha, which Alphilis was sending in case, did nothing as a result, but they also had results. It confirmed that the map of Kazas was indeed accurate.

The face of a separate team, which had selected the main battlefield and confirmed the terrain according to the map of Kazas, reached the location decided on the map with little confusion. It may be difficult to understand in a world where accurate maps are drawn, but getting lost in places without streets at the time was a routine tea meal, and it was normal to fly scouts with dozens of people first when the army and others moved, waiting for their reports before moving.

But Alphilis' troops are hardly likely to get lost on the eastern side of the continent after that. It will also be possible to grasp the topography on the map and ambush the enemy. This will work very well for them in the future. Even if we could only confirm that fact, there was a profit that was requested by Muse this time.

Thus Rosetta and Tasha and the others, admiring the accuracy of the map brought about by Kazas, pulled it off with exasperation despite the lack of de facto combat merit. But what they saw there was an invigorating alphilis. Alphilis was always the way he looked, but he's not hectic at all. There was no brightness near the bottom, and no clutter, and Alphilis stared at the distance as long as he had time.

The members worried about Alphilis talked to Larna and Lisa, but at times like this, Lisa and Larna knew that it was counterproductive when they went. Of course they know what causes Alphilis to get depressed. I guess the presence of Blanche and Aeruare, met in the middle of Muse's request, casts a shadow on Alphilis' mind.

At times like this, it's best for Miranda to revitalize Alphilis, but Miranda said she was still busy running around inside Arnelia. I came to play with the regiment only once, but it was the end of not even knowing that Alphilis was away.

At that rate, the members were just holding hands and watching an alphilis that was not energetic. But one day, someone who cared about Alphilis spoke to her. Or everyone could have been an unexpected person.

"Alphilis, you have a face that won't float."

"... a layer. What's the matter with you?

It was the lay who spoke to a single blurry alphilis on the rooftops of the countless feathers mercenary regiment headquarters in Heaven Run. He attended regular Lectures in Rana's Studies (also attended by neighborhood residents, etc.) and submitted assignments early to finish. It should be noted that Elsia and Gail are not completely finished with the assignment, so they have Larna's harsh blame bitterness (?) also took additional classes equal to

Layers didn't know there was an alphilis on the roof. He simply liked this place where he could feel the sky nearby. Layers are not otherwise dreamers, nor are they so cramped into life today that they overlap freedom in the sky again. But he liked the sky. Because I can feel the tininess of being myself. If he wasn't aware of his own shortness, he would have felt himself holding a sword and being swallowed by superiority and trance when driving away his enemies.

And Alphilis stood where it was supposed to be time for self-reflection for such a layer. Surprisingly, both Alphilis and Layer were alike, but Layer did not hesitate to speak to the depressing Alphilis. It didn't matter what the Alphilis problem was to him. However, the very existence of Alphilis was incredible to the layers and was an object of interest.

"I won't do anything about it. Because I'm just here to change my mood."

"Yeah... I don't know if I can get in the way, if I'm here"

"Nothing like that. I can change my mood even if someone is next door. If only I could see the sky."

"Phew, then I'll be here for a while. Because I'm not gonna do anything extra."

"Yes."

As it was, the two spent their time on the roof without conversation. And when Alphilis tried to leave the spot wondering if it was time to go back to the clerk, the lay opened his mouth.

"Hey, can I ask you one thing?

"... yeah, fine."

"How can you educate us? I'm not sure why."

"There are a few reasons, but first a healthy spirit resides in a healthy flesh. And vice versa. In addition to that argument, I think intelligence is nutritious for the spirit. Good intelligence leads to good life."

"Huh. Anything else?

"You can't leave a kid in trouble with that. That's all."

"That's a lie"

Layer glanced at Alphilis. His eyes were innocent for a moment, but he had the strength to ask about Alphilis.
