The Branded Female Fencer

"Master, worrying isn't the answer. Don't take the time to do that now because Atashi will find out. You've got a lot to think about as head of Arnelia."

"Well, the problem is it's piling up, and no matter how much time you have, it's hard just to get ready for the 400th anniversary. It has not been a long time since the heads of state have put out a place to meet, but what developments will this time be? It hurts my stomach just to think."

"What happened before?

Miranda asks. Miriazal's face became tannic, as it crushed the bitter worm.

"At first we all respected the eagle. That tickles me off. Arnelia became the current system, and for 200 years or so, the respect of each country for the eagle was enough. It has been about 200 years since then, and gradually the attitude of the countries has lightened the eagle, no, something that responds defiantly to the eagle has also appeared. They're only limited to just surfacing, but that's why they were creepier than the guy cutting them in the front. Only a whisper and a bad reputation can spread beyond my reach.

And finally, a country emerged that showed clear hostility to the eagles. Romansland and I are actually mutually non-interferent by agreement, but these days the country benefits from Arnelia's role as a mechanism, but there are some unfaithful people who don't want Arnelia's instructions. "

"Don't be surprised, there's always a time to smoke just good juice."

"I used to feel a little more calm about human sexuality."

"It must be the character of the master who screwed it up."

"Don't you dare tell me."

Oh, you're getting on with your usual, Elsa thought. I don't know, Elsa thinks it's safe to have these two. No matter how rotten the interior of Arnelia is, pests spreading across countries, if these two are alive, yes. It was hard to imagine that this continent would be strange.

That's why I thought Elsa was worried. Rumors that a suspicious union has recently been formed in various countries and that they are about to fly a flag against Arnelia head-on, etc. must be eyebrow spit.

As Elsa watched such an exchange with a smile, Koko, who was outside, gently entered the room and eared at Elsa.

"Lord Lisa?

"What's up, Elsa?"

"It appears Lord Lisa is offering to see Miranda. Or, on the face of it, he came to see Miriazal."

"I'm so relieved to play. Well, let it pass."

I know Miriazal as much as Lisa really didn't come to see me. Lisa's coming to see me also means we have business to attend to at the same time. It was just the right opportunity for Lisa for Miranda to be here again. No matter how many of our former travelers are unaware of that fact, Lisa's entry into and exit from Miranda is a source to be reckoned with. Even if Miranda doesn't say anything, I can imagine what's going on around there for Lisa too.

Lisa turned to Miranda, not Miriazal, when she was passed into the room.

"Do you know what I came here for today?

"Atassically. But that doesn't seem to be all."

"That's a good guess"

"Let's hear the report first. I feel a little late, but Lisa's requirements would be better from then on."

Miranda squeezed her expression and turned back to Lisa. Lisa also reported back to Miranda for work.

"On the Ips thing. She was first of all a very dependable being. Aside from its character and compatibility, you would certainly be competent. I don't even know if I deserve a pilgrimage watch, but if you're that mouth-water, I was wondering if it would be worse to be called a conflict resolution expert.

And its strength is also first-class. Is there someone in our mercenary corps who can beat her alone? I have to say, it's pretty hard. "

"That's right. That Ips had a proven track record far surpassing Elsa there if it was a pure demon crusade. It's not so easy to kill, even if you're a cop."

"Yes, I guess it was. It was just unclear whether she was rebellious against Arnelia. Because I left her before I poked her in the core. However, I think you were loyal to your duties."

"Well, is the track record real? Then the question is, who killed Ips?"

"By whom? Didn't the demon kill you in that basement?

The death of Ips is also laid low within the Arnelian Church. Generally, pilgrims are even lay low in their names and watchdogs, even within the church. It is something that they have no choice in the characteristics of their mandate, but therefore they are only reported to the extent that their deaths are even minimal human beings - in other words, blood relatives. Almost all blood relatives had already died in the case of Ips, so they were only obliged to inform the remote. It is also, to a lesser extent, remote from the Ips. In fact, there was no death of Ips.

But Lisa was aware. Because it was a tense scene, it was also due to the fact that the sensor was tensioned without alarm. And about a day later, Lisa was sneakingly sensing that a member of the Knights Temple, who had gone inside the underground waterway, had taken a stretcher and recovered some chunk. Lisa had instinctively guessed that something that wasn't in the shape of a person was' who '.

However, there was no assumption as to the cause of that death, and while I went to call for reinforcements, I just thought that I had been killed by the demons I had encountered.

Miranda shook her head to the side against Lisa's words.
