The Branded Female Fencer

"Wake up, Amur"

"... why are you here? Are you free?

"You just woke up when I happened to come by to see how things were going. Besides, your condition equals the highest priority. The same goes for the info, but is it something you shouldn't be friends with that you care about your condition?

"... Shit, I'm not gonna be friends with you."

"Then that's fine, just do what I want."

Amur will be the only one who can give this kind of mouthfeel to Dryan, so to speak of the worldly breadth of the beast man. But even though Dryan was a little older, he allowed Amur to say such things. It may have actually been the first time in decades that these two have had this casual conversation.

"When's the first time we've talked like this?"

"Temehe's gotten great, so we just can't have a hey conversation. That's when the Beast General had a bunnals asshole."

"The man who used to be your superior officer. You must have died in battle."

"It's only natural to fight like that. Better yet, he died at the beginning of the battle. Thanks to you, this is a big mess on the front. If the Roch bastard hadn't been manipulative, he'd be more dead."

"It's not to give the deceased a rating, but it's true that previously there were many beast generals whose only individual combat abilities protruded and whose command abilities were low. But since I became king, there's not supposed to be that kind of dumb-ass?

"That's what Temehe promised me and became king. And Temehe kept his promise. It's a big deal, great."

To Amur's way of saying it, Dryan bends his eyebrows and looks in trouble.

"I meant to keep your demands, but what are you unhappy about?

"Oh, it was so perfect. But I'm not gonna let that happen. Why not yourself?

I'm going to take care of myself. Whatever you do, you know you can do better than me. But it's somewhere. He said I was in command and he wanted to do what I was good at. Oh, my God, jealousy is the one. Now I can say calmly, but I didn't feel that way at the time "

"... if it's how our country works, it's possible you were the king. When I was younger, the only thing I feared was you. You're just black fog moving around at high speeds. Called Black Fog (Black Nebbia), you were said to be closer to the Beast King than anyone else at the time"

As Dryan said in his true face, Amur waved and deceived after a moment of neatness.

"Come on, you can say that now. Now I used to get hit by you."

"Now, to be honest, I didn't see your move at all at the time. Your steeple stumbled into the fist you put out appropriately. That's just it. I was the one who was surprised by the results."

"... are you serious?

"Oh, big deal"

Amur laughed a lot after a while because Dryan still said it with a serious face. I had no idea that the first battle that was going to determine my fate - I can no longer remember the trigger, and that battle that was going to be a duel from the ground up with Dryan - had been decided with a fist that was put out properly. I wonder what I was, assuming that settled me. Well, he said what was missing was obsession and the evil of giving up. Amur still remembered.

"Ha ha ha ha! Right, but I still wasn't enough. But the other way around, it's clear, it's Dreyan."

"I don't know, do I? Its neat and to the point, when did you see Whisper's body?

"Well - he was still manipulating me, I... Unfortunately, I can't remember his body. I think they're implying it that way. Have you ever seen Whisper's body?

"Probably. But it was a long time ago. He will also be changing his appearance. And you were realizing you were being manipulated?

Dryan stared at Amur as he questioned him, but Amur shook his head.

"I just thought of it as one of the possibilities, what a shock that it was really manipulated. I didn't know I was a traitor. We have to find out how much information has been leaked."

"That's true, too, but I'm worried I'll be able to unbrainwash you. He said it would take some time before we could find a way to solve the implication because Gora hadn't even done a thorough research yet. I believe Whisper's way of brainwashing is closer to implication than witchcraft."

"Really? But I wonder if there is a valid implication that it would satisfy the activation conditions while tying his actions."

"If there is, it would be a somewhat peculiar ability. That alone is a monster, but Whisper's horror is the power of the organization in that context. Almas - those arms dealers you know too. I supported the organization of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce to counter them, but they seem to be doing it all over the place. Again, an organization that operates for hundreds of years is deeply bottomed. Don't show me the bottom of it."

"But the elimination of warriors would be a must. Thank you. The black magicians also have a verse running them. If that is the case, there will undoubtedly be a massive war in the near future. That's like during the war.

That's what I was thinking. I was looking at the country providing bases for black magicians from one end, but I can't find any obvious evidence. There are some suspicious countries out there. "

"Romansland, isn't it?

Amur's eyes glowed suspiciously at Dryan's words.
