The Branded Female Fencer

City of Pleasure, Part 53 - Bugs Crowding in Honey ② -

"People are asking about you. You want to be the mightiest knight, don't you?

"Yes."

"I've also wanted to be the strongest. And I'm in my current position. It would still be far from the strongest, but I still believe it's halfway down the road. I will still be strong, and I hope so.

But at the same time, there are all kinds of strays. What is the strongest, what should I be the strongest with, what will happen when I become the strongest - I'm lost, etc., even though it's not necessary to be strong. The only thing I wish I had was a stronger motive to be strong. I am thinking that if only that motive, which is unshakeable under any circumstances, could really take its seat someday. Like Alberto was. "

"Can I be, I'm the strongest"

"It's up to you. But for that, I need to learn now. Think of other things as well as waving your sword at times. Good warriors learn well. You don't seem to like using your head."

As Jake turned confused by the words, Marduk stood at a loss of compassion. It is unconscious that I put my hand over Jake's head.

And Ultina spoke to Marduk.

"Excuse me, but I didn't know there was such a side to 'fanatics' Marduk"

"That's just one side of me. It is only natural for a pilgrimage to be more harsh than anyone else if it is a battle. You would, too, wouldn't you?

"Sure. But I just think that the reason you get stronger is your delusion about Arnelia the Virgin"

"It's acquired."

"May I ask why you wanted to be the strongest?

"It looks like this to me, too, and I have a childhood. It was a competition with no other love. I wondered who would be strongest. We competed, we got stronger, and nobody was there but me, and we fought against each other and nothing had a goal. That's all. I worship Arnelia the Virgin, but that's not all."

Marduk didn't talk about it, he was back to his former oligarchy man. Ultina had something to think about as she prepared herself for pre-launch. Arnelia, with its long history, naturally has a variety of forces and factions. The same goes for the dichotomous factions of nobility and civilians, but there are also moderates who serve the chosen Virgin and extremists who should be actively involved in the politics of other countries. Of course, some actionists are as powerful as Lapenti, while others just argue and fool each other.

Among them is a group called the Virgin Arnelian fanatics. This is the most radical faction that worships the Virgin Arnelia not much and should abolish the current selection of Virgin and follow all the doctrines of the original Arnelia. Together, it is a faction that can shake the very foundations of Arnelia today.

Ultina doesn't trust Miriazal. Not because she's a demon, but because she doesn't like the skill of looking too far at the whole thing and killing individuals. So I don't take Miriazal's orders for good, and yet I belong to a group of lapenties that can resist her to some extent, but I've never thought of wanting to break the very mechanism called Arnelia. So, if anyone appears to one of Lapenti's factions looking to overthrow Arnelia, he even thinks he should be disposed of. For that reason, it is convenient to be in the present position.

I've thought of Marduk as the head of the fanatics at first, but there was truth to the word now. Hi. If Marduk is not a fanatic, I have no idea who's driving the fanatics. Urtina is a fanatic trend that has been felt fervently at first, but quietly at some point spread, gradually and terribly. Given that the faction is still spreading, the chief should be more than that.

"(A little bit, and the assassination noise ahead...?

I didn't know Ultina's thoughts were exhausted, but time won't wait for me. Before putting their thoughts together, they had already reached the front of the honey and kettle flower pavilion. The road has already been sealed off. There were a few floaters, but they are all evacuating, too. According to the information I got from the man who was at Volgius, it's definitely this building. It is a whorehouse that is a long way behind, and it does not look as bad as the surrounding houses. However, if the signs of the bugs gathering around the flowers are not marked, it is a building enough to overlook. Rather, it was a sign that was common in restaurants and, in such a flattering place, something that could not be overlooked. In fact, the ground floor looks disguised as a restaurant. A whorehouse that I don't know is not a regular part of the store was a common means for a playful taram.

Yesterday I checked downwards and they say that a honey and kettle flower pavilion is an unauthorized whorehouse, even in Tarram. Such whorehouses in Tarham are about as many stars, but many of them are in pursuit of pleasure that cannot be justified. However, since there are more customers of these preferences in the world than I thought, and many places in the whorehouse where legitimate notification is given have a history of being a guest or require notification of identity, it was indispensable that an undocumented whorehouse be attended by nobles and persons of identity who wanted to hide their identity. Because of that circumstance, the unauthorized whorehouse has repeatedly picked and appeared like an Itachi. Therefore, when it comes to unauthorized products, its management seems to be for several years, but this whorehouse has been going on for decades. I know you're doing it in detail, but both Marduk and Ultina agreed that you wouldn't mind just saying different colors on that point.

I also helped it to be early in the morning, and it felt like there was no sign of people in the building. The store is already closed, and on the front of the store is' Closed, lunch starts at noon! 'I may step in because it says so,' but Marduk was letting the temple knight-assigned sensors order me to look inside.

"What do you say?

"There's magic stretching around to jam the sensors, but it's a lot of coarse stuff. It's common in Tarram, especially where it's otherwise odd."

"Well, it's hard when the contents are known in the whorehouse. It would be the juncture created by the sorcerer collapse around it anyway. You know what's going on in there?

"It will take time, but I was wondering if I could make a breakthrough. There are some strict parts, but just about some rooms. It takes time to break through this unnoticed from the outside, so I was wondering if it would be quicker to break inside."

"I see, then it's enough to know how it's approximate. How long will it take??

"We're starting when we arrive here, so it's time to... what?

The sensors, the members, floated a rushed color. Changes are happening in the building in front of us before Marduk asks about the anomaly. When I blurted, I wondered if the black smoke had risen out of the window, and suddenly, with the flash, there was an explosion.

The Knights of the Temple are skilled knights. It was the unnecessary noise that did not make, but many who refrained from doing so defended themselves, while guarding their surroundings, preparing for the next explosion, preventing damage to the buildings beside them, and so on. But the squad leaders were watching Marduk as soon as possible. Marduk's decision is quick.
