The Branded Female Fencer
The Hall of Return, Part 34 - Unexpected Rescue?
"Who?"
Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you.
The Lord of the voice was Doom. He didn't even hide himself and approached with his hands raised to show that there was no hostility. Renatica remained vigilant and stopped him a few moments apart.
"Big deal, I can't believe you tailored the horning. Of all the demon kings in the anomaly, they were pretty good."
"Can I help you?
"That's a good one, though. Actually, there's something I want you to choose from."
Renatica wondered, but never spoke. But when he realized what was inside of Renatica, who was lacking in expression, Doom began to talk to Pepper. Either way, I was going to talk to you.
"Now, with the exception of you, Arnelia's troops are divided into three parts. One is the main unit led by Rafferty. Most humans gather here now. One is Lisa and Aristotle's troops. You were just here. [M] The other is Jake's lad and his escort. I want you to choose if you're going to help Lisa or if you're going to help Jake."
"Why would you ask that?"
Renatica will not negotiate with the other party until now. Because most things are unnecessary, such as negotiations, if you just kill them. But now Lunatica has a protector. Eliminating only enemies to be defeated while protecting required more information than simply killing an opponent. Plus, there was something earlier.
Doom talks even more rap about whether Renatica cared about eating.
"It may be difficult for you to understand, but as far as I'm concerned, I don't care very much about winning or losing this fight. Well, blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't even want this fight here, and it just happened to me as a result, but I'm having trouble with this one. That's why I want Lisa and other Alphilis officials to manage to get home safely.
Actually, it's my men who make this castle. I'm the only one who's free to get in and out of the world, and that's why I want to help, but my men over here are excellent. I didn't expect to split them up so brilliantly. That's why we don't have enough hands here, honestly. "
"I'm not sure what you're talking about. If you don't want to fight, you just have to run away."
"If I could do that, I wouldn't have a hard time. Come on. Maybe that's the best thing for both sides, but unfortunately my men are already angry when they trample and vandalize their realm. You're always faceless and don't even have a lot of words to say, but you won't listen to my orders anymore. We'll do it like this.
And Arnelia has nothing wrong with killing her. As an experimental platform for outfits, it's more like the other guys' opinion to fight. It's hard for you to say, let people do their jobs. "
"Is that all?
Doom's eyebrows tickled at Renatica's sharp pointer, but Doom also decided to slump again. Because I wasn't willing to tell you any more from the beginning. Doom is equal to a beating in the future.
And Doom goes into a bargaining stuffing.
"That's all. Not only that, but this time at least it has nothing to do with it. Besides, I don't have much time to go and help either. Come on, what do we do?
"Wait, I'm just listening to your wishes at the end of the day as it is, and I don't even know if it's in our favor. Put another condition on it. If you want to tell me, you can follow what you say."
"Hopefully, fine. Would you tell me?
"Who set this fight up?
To Lunatica's point, Doom makes a face when he sees something interesting. For the first time, Doom was interested in the Lunatica in front of him.
"Who set it up, what?
"As the words say. I felt it when I received the request. Why couldn't the events in such a nearby city be broken by Arnelia for so long? Speaking of small scale, yes because there was no damage report. But if you're in Arnelia, you'll see. They are not 'blurry'. I mean..."
"Oh, you mean that. Surely Arnelia has a traitor?
Even Lunatica lost the next word because Doom admitted it too lightly. Doom looks at Renatica's reaction in an interesting way. It can also be considered his habit.
"I just know you're here. Otherwise, at the time of the first raid, I was wondering if I could go straight to the Deep Green Palace without getting lost. But I don't even know who. Because it's not the job I'm involved in. Why don't you ask someone else?
"Yes. So what do you do?
"Right. Is it mainly the collection of special weapons and tools? Sometimes we create other places where evil spirits are somewhat susceptible to growth, or destroy them in towns and village units. After that, it's chores."
"No, I talk perky. I don't trust you."
"Tell me from yourself, what a grace? I was honest with you."
Doom denounced Lunatica with a shuddering face, but it seemed woven to him to be denounced by Lunatica as well. I don't know how stupid my attitude is.
"Fair enough. I don't even know what the plan is. Maybe that's true of everyone. Except only one, Hidun."
"Hidun?"
"Oh. A man who would have helped the Orange Bull from the beginning. Most importantly, I don't think his purpose is in line with the Orange Bull. Besides, I don't really think I know the whole plan. At the end of the day, I don't feel like I trust any of the Orange Bulls.
Well. I wonder if this place is reasonable for the price of information, but has your mind decided which way to go?
Doom asked Lunatica to try, but Lunatica's heart had already been set.
"Heading towards Jake. Show me."
"Uh, okay? I just thought it was Lisa."
"That's what Lisa would say. Guided or not"
"Well, I'll show you. Because trading is funny because we do it on a reciprocal basis. Osiria!"
In response to Doom's call, Osiria appears fluffy. When Osiria glanced at Renatica, she began to guide him without a word. Renatica carefully distanced herself from Osiria, but followed her. Turning to Doom, he complained with his eyes about what kind of eye he would match if he broke his promise.
They left, and the Doom that was left was often thinking. Apparently, Lisa's love for Jake is deeper than Doom thinks.
"You're completely incomprehensible... what's so good about that kid. I'd enjoy it even after I'm dead. Well, I promise you, do you want to go help Lisa?"
While Doom bewildered himself, he disappeared toward Lisa.
