The Branded Female Fencer
Guilty Sword of Oath, Part 68 ~ Jake ③ ~
The surrounding knights were noisy. They are the Knights who belong to the lower ranks of the Temple Knights in position, but not every one of the surrounding Knights feels inferior to the Temple Knights. The key to the difference between the Temple Knights and the surrounding Knights was the role, the difference between serving the Virgin Miriazal directly or protecting the people in downtown. Peripheral knights work their pride every day.
It is true that the Temple Knights mandate also includes a demonic crusade, so that the Temple Knights are a much better conclusion in terms of combat power, but rather that the Peripheral Knights are better at finding people and in events such as inter-popular arbitration. Thus, although sometimes dealing with some havoc and neighborhood demonic crusades, basically the peripheral knights were, independently of the Temple Knights, peaceful knights.
That was driving out a large number of personnel at the request of the Temple Knights tonight. Moreover, from the underground waterway, after a vivid battle and the beginning and end of the ascent of the remains of the Templar Knight. Besides, the details are unknown, but also the beginning and end of leaving Sister's neckless body, which seems young. As far as the catastrophe of the underground waterway was concerned, it was so strange how the inhabitants of the ground were unaware.
In the midst of being driven out as far as the lay off, the city ends up with a small fire. Many knights blurted out today that it was a bad day, and the gatekeepers prayed that there would be no more merchants or travellers who arrived late outside the gate. If anyone visits the gate after closing, it was common to direct them to the nearby first celebration facility, or to allow them to stay in a simple lodging in the gate, but either way they must be manned. This area was the end of the day when there were even people outside the gate who would stay in the wilderness because it was safe, but since one of the raids, the wilderness outside the gate had reached a ban.
In such circumstances, when the remaining gatekeepers tried to take turns to take a nap, they accidentally opened the gate from the inside and bowled it in with the presence that came in. The boy who came in greeted him with a smile and told him himself in a decree that the requirement of haste was on the lookout, but it was odd to open the gate himself and come in in the first place. The gates were limited to even the working people, and it was customary to keep ciphers and doors open when those who went out on some errand returned. Therefore, there can be no one who comes in unlocking their own keys.
When the gatekeepers looked at each other, one stood up briskly to keep pace with the boy and blocked his way, the other pulled a string that was inside the room. At that moment, they would faint feathers, but at the same time the news of the intruder would be flown to watch, and a damning horn would be whistled from the gate.
"Hmm. Mascarade guy, the stuffing is sweet. You've been spotted, what can you do?"
The intruder is Dora. He pulled out two swords to defeat the nearby Footsteps Lord.
"It's a horn."
"Apparently there's been an anomaly."
Jake driving the horse and Lunatica running in parallel heard the horn whistle at the same time. Jake knows there will be a horn whistle when something goes wrong as knowledge, but he can't identify the exact audio source between buildings.
Renatica quickly jumped up on the building as the horn whistled, checking its direction and coming down.
"In the direction of the West Gate. Little fire looks like it's over there."
"Light fires are bright. The gate must be under attack by now."
"To one of those boys named Dora? How the opponent, though the surrounding knights, is too reckless"
"No, it's not enough to have a hundred guards there. Let's hurry."
Jake whipped into the horse and Renatica followed Jake faster on his feet. They saw the horn followed by the illumination bullet. But the magic to be said was launched into the sky, but at some point the horn had stopped.
When Jake and the others took the directions to avoid the origin of the light fire, they went out to a more secluded gate that was creepy and unpopular. There should normally be a few bonfires and guards, but the secluded West Gate, more than usual, is neither invisible nor immense because of its immensity.
Jake rushed over to the slightly open door as he abandoned the horse. Lunatica also follows later.
"No sign inside"
"On the contrary, up there are signs of battle. Intruders are inside."
"Okay."
Jake's decision is quick. Open the door and run up inside for a small run. Not that Jake has ever worn this West Gate. But in the darkness, he ran up the stairs without hesitation to be led by something. Even Lunatica is full of what follows.
"(Strange boy. There is a strange certainty in his existence, even though he is not that strong. You're not aware of it yet, but I'm sure this boy is doing things that people can't even do)"
I was thinking of that as Lunatica looked at Jake's back. And as they ran up the tower in a straight line, they saw a few people cut together at the gate building. But the settlement is for a moment. The little shadow had struck several shadows without even cutting them together.
Jake called out in the thin dark, where only the blue moon glanced at him, without having to ascertain who the shadow was.
"Dora."
Jake's voice was quiet, but there was so much power there that it could not be ignored. The shadow movement stopped perfectly and the white moonlight paid off the shadow.
