The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 167 - Conference Day 7, Morning ② -

"And then Alexandria. Their mission is an elite one for everyone. Besides, I was wondering if it was more impossible to sneak in than Diore was blinding his eyes."

"They have spies of the same or more proficiency than we do. Shane, where's Sereno?"

"That's -- strange things are happening."

Elsa seemed troubled to see if she could keep reporting. But Miranda naturally urged him to remain, and Elsa answered in confusion.

"- Shane Sereno's envoy has a spy in it. That's what can be monitored from Shane Sereno's bedroom to the bathroom. As a result, there's nothing suspicious about it."

"Doesn't that sound suspicious?

"Yeah. On the contrary, he seems to work all the time with little sleep. Occasionally enough to look good with your own hand mirror, and if you only take a moment or so of hypnotic sleep, otherwise you always seem to work. He said he had never seen anyone more diligent."

"... I only sleep for a short time. But there are healthy people once in a while, but I wonder if that's the deal. Keep watching. Whether Shane Sereno is out there or not, if you look at the people gathering at her, you can correlate every step of the way.

Who does Shane Sereno ask for, or who relies on her? We need to do a good research and read the conference trends. If you fail, she will take the lead in this conference and the continent ahead. "

"I understand. But, Master Anolun, there's one thing I'd like to ask you."

"What?"

Elsa questioned Miranda with a nervous face.

"If this meeting moves exactly as Shane Sereno thought, and Arnelia is put at a disadvantage - 'how far do you intend to go'?

Elsa put it in the most considerate way, but naturally the intention is communicated to Miranda as well. Miriazal didn't say anything, and I felt Miranda was in charge around there as well. So it is no exaggeration to say that the two of us on this occasion have the right to make all the decisions.

Miranda got an even more rugged look and told him to stare at Elsa.

"Now is not the time to think about it. But if you're going to get your mind ready now, be 'thorough'. Wearing mud is the role of the back. Mistake is not the Virgin Miriazal."

"How much are we replacing?"

"Well, our position is any different. Like a once minar."

"But there is no substitute for a human being named you anywhere in the world. That's all you have to fight for. If you die, some of you will grieve."

"- Yes."

Elsa remembered her loved one who had died, but now she decided not to think about it. If this is the battlefield, it is strictly forbidden to give thought to the dead. If you think of the dead, you will be pulled there by the battlefield.

But I heard a scream downstairs as if to tear the thought apart. Soundproofing magic also blocks sound from the outside to some extent, but screams as if it doesn't even matter. But Miranda and Elsa don't move much longer. Because if this is a raid, it's possible to attack further where people have gathered. Besides, this is the heart of Arnelia. We've got plenty of defense, and if there's anything, people will be coming to report it as soon as possible.

And as Miranda expected, the report came running in less than 30 seconds.

"I'm Aristotle, okay?

"Get in."

Aristotle, head of security in the morning, came in. Aristotle reports with a light salute. Miranda asks immediately.

"Something."

"It's a raid. One seriously wounded."

"How many enemies?

"That's... there's no enemy figure, just an arrow flying in"

"An arrow?

Miranda had thought of various forms of raiding, but the long-range shooting by arrows was unexpected. No, if it's an assassination, the bows and arrows are very effective and most remembered, which is why they lay their protective nets more than double the range of bows and arrows produced in Jaeger. I can't get inside the protective net without permission, and as soon as the protective net is broken, I realize it. That would require sniping from outside the protective net, but with that in mind, we are setting up this conference room by choosing not to take high or low differences. I have even been concerned about cutting down street trees for that matter.

Besides, just in case, the whole building is covered with powerful sorcery. Regardless from the inside, it was thought that breaking it with a remote attack from the outside would require considerable large-scale sorcery or a stone thrower for siege warfare.

So now the outdated method of arrows and so on against this venue was completely out of Miranda's head. When Miranda takes her seat, she heads to the scene early.
