The Branded Female Fencer

City of Pleasure, Part 207 - Endless Desire

What a garland it was to be in the next act, half a moment until the stunned bandrass returned to sanity. One of the multiple knives he threw was hitting the neck of the bandrass. Not fatally wounded, but realizing that his neck artery had been damaged, Banderas jumped into the flames without hesitation. If you look at Jake in the back of your eyes, your skin is suffering quite a few burns. When I wondered if he was lurking to ask for a chance in the flames, Bandras was the thought of his spine freezing in the flames. I was still remembering my own childhood, marveling at the fact that a boy, a child as old as I had just come out of childish service if I did poorly, had the guts to get this far.

"(What, it doesn't make a big difference?)"

Bandras disappeared into the flames, remembering his nostalgia and admiration. Shortly afterwards, Enema's icy magic tore the flames apart and quenched the fire, but there was already no sign of Banderas. To follow the traces of blood, we don't know the traces in the flames. Everyone on the spot was feeling like they wanted to tongue.

"I want to let you get away!

"Jake, are you okay"

"Ugh, oh. I guess I was a little too much."

Jake, who suffered general burns, was just speechless, and Ultina was approaching, letting the Knights use healing magic. As the wounds recovered rapidly, others were searching for traces of bandrass. And I realize the entrance that was supposed to have been there earlier is missing.

"Hey, there's no door that should have been there earlier!?

"Is there a reason for that? It's impossible to fill the door in an instant."

"But in reality..."

"First the entrance. Find out if it's a hidden door."

As Quade instructed, the Knights of the Temple and the Garland handlers searched for the stronghold of the Bandras, and Fostina was quietly harboring her sword.

"I'm glad you didn't fight the thought of losing it."

You're weak, Fostina.

It was an objection while holding Liliam's sword, but it felt the same inside. Fostina was not shy and went on.

"Honestly, we didn't want to get along. Strong even in a legitimate fight. Besides, I think you're hiding the ability not to be good at it. Even when we think about it because of its age, it is clear that it is out of normal human reason. I don't want to suddenly interact with someone like that from the front.

Besides, Banderas' words were also my question. How come I was certified a brave man with no great backshield or contribution to the guild? I made an application, but it was a little too soon. "

It's personal.

The Enema said it off lightly. Fostina glanced at the noise of the words.

"With a personal statement? Against whom?"

"It's" The Hunt for the Brave. "Perhaps the wind of the sword - well, regardless of whether the Alliance is electing the brave by such criteria with a clear will, it's because of the many deaths of the brave."

"I thought you were going to die for harsh requests?

"There is, but first-rate mercenaries are also first-rate in the selection of requests. I don't take dying requests first. It's just that none of the brave men have survived more than 15 years since I was certified brave, the last hundred years. Unless you retire, you'll be missing at some point. It's not on the table because it's not judged dead, but it's a tacit understanding among the top mercenaries."

"I don't know."

"Though neither you nor Lydil would be very involved with others because the mercenary rank quickly rose, and they move alone or in a fixed face in the first place. If you've been a mercenary for a long time, it's common sense.

Well, even I was told by Zems' people. "

"I hope it's exciting, ladies. What are we going to do, this?"

Garland is weak, and refers to the peripheral tragedy with his chin. The surrounding area is full of buildings that have burned and are about to collapse, and the road back is no longer certain. Even if I just pull it up, it won't be a glimmer. Garland's eyes were all about helping him clean up, but Enema flickered over the building.

"I don't think we can find Bandras now that he's gone. Zems is the only one who knows how to contact me, and he's the one who calls me in the first place and doesn't answer the call more often. That would be the last time I could not finish. Most importantly, it's the nature of the man to show up as if there was nothing hidden somewhere.

Besides, I have to prepare for the enemy outside. Why don't you guys put this place behind you?

"That said, there's still a light fire (Boya) out there. If you leave it alone, it could be a big fire."

"If the orcs outside attacked, I'm sorry about the fire. What pushed me ahead was also an induction battle with enough of the characteristics of this Fourth Street and the bandits commanded by Banderas. Now that they're all gone, there's no way to defend this tarram. You know it's Lilliam there, right? Even if it's an oak, there's no way to prevent that number. And not a single breakthrough, but an attack from all directions. I can't prevent it."

Liliam kept her mouth shut because Enema was best at what she said. I didn't think Garland would give a shit, so I skipped an order to my gesture and started putting out the light fire. Liliam had negotiated with representatives of the Fourth District, which was a mystery, and wondered if he might ask for cooperation, but he realized that it had become impossible, and he was thinking about Tarram's defense.

Fostina had often thought about the meaning of Bandras' words, but realized Ultina was looking for something all the time and spoke up.

"What is it, Lord Ultina?"

"No, I was wondering where Jake went. And the boy Jake spoke to on the way."

"Yeah? I didn't seem to have had a boy like that from the start."

"No way!? I was there until the moment I entered here..."

Ultina looked for two strangely invisible boys.
