The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 256 - Sadness

"That's..."

This area should still be sealed off by Arnelia. I guess walking on the spot means he's also an assassin against Titania. I also recognize that figure. He's supposed to be a contestant in the Unified Martial Arts Games. I'm supposed to be the contestant who's still winning, but I can't remember his name.

I'm impressed that he's just a young man dressed in black, but his strength shouldn't have been a big deal either. If you insist, the only thing that strikes me is that you can't fight. I had only that degree of impression, as if I wasn't supposed to hold the sword.

But now that I think about it, can a man who can't fight his way through to the fifth round of the Unified Martial Arts Games win? Today's game should have won as well. When Vanessa realized the fact, she suddenly felt creepy about the inexperienced youth.

As the young man walked slowly, he called out to Banessa.

"What about him?

"What?"

"It's the boy on the back. Are you all right?

"I'm about to show you, but well, you'll be fine"

"Right."

That's all I'm saying, young people go by. Vanessa spoke unexpectedly, even as she felt she should not be involved.

"Does this boy have an edge?

"What does that fact have to do with you?

"No, I don't."

"- A good enemy, someone who could be. As long as you live."

That's all the young man told him, he turned toward Titania without looking back. Vanessa was reluctant to hear the young man's name, but she felt glad for it. If you don't want to fight, you better not know your name. Because as he looked, he was the one who reminisced all that ominous hunch.

"Everywhere, we're late!

"I'm sorry"

Miranda was in command of the head of the Titania Siege Network. Although it was originally planned, it is Elsa's chain of command. Elsa commands a large number of people before she shows her true command. If Miranda is the General, Elsa is the field commander.

There are many capable warriors in Arnelia, but few people can be commanders. Not at this time, when Elsa was not here, did the Knights of the Temple not run any more than Miranda could have imagined.

"(Elsa, I didn't know you weren't going to run this far just because you weren't alone - should you have borrowed a pigeon?

One report after another comes in as Miranda thinks as she bites her nails.

"Even if Banessa encounters Titania, she leaves with an injured Jake. How would you like it?

"Jake injured? What happened to you?

"It seems that both the fist-serving clan have been struck by surprise."

Miranda looked surprised by the unexpected report.

"It's weird to be struck by those people - so, are you seriously injured?

"I can't seem to regain consciousness. I was wondering if they'd probably bring it here."

"Prepare the best medical team. Damn, is it necessary for Banessa to leave?"

As she was washing Vanessa's origins, she had sold those arms into Arnelia herself. I thought my strength was sufficient just to poke at the mouthless void conducting the investigation, but I didn't think I would leave without fighting. Well, I didn't know how much more useful it would be than the ex. I didn't put it in the calculations.

And the next report.

"The Spears sisters have entered the battle against Titania"

"Okay, now you can buy me some time. I didn't expect you to move honestly."

The Spears sisters would be able to buy some time. I was hoping that the clans who serve their fists in this gap would fight, but thank God their movements are dull. The tricks are falling apart, and what the hell is the reason? It's a battlefield for them to fight to the full.

I know we can't trust ourselves, but nevertheless, is there a reason why they don't reveal their bills that far and make them secret? At the earlier talks, Bergay did skip the kill, but I thought the relationship worked out pretty well.

Or is it that I intend to crush it? But still, they should have to fight. I can't expect a battlefield to be fed any more.

Miranda tries to move her next hand, surprised by their inexplicable movements.

"Titania without a right hand would be quite a battle for the three sisters"

"No right hand, is it?

"... nothing."

Miranda was annoyed as she told herself. Until earlier, I was observing the battle directly through the demon, but now I'm in a bad position and I can't see the battle directly. I didn't tell my men about it, so there was a conversation. No one has been taught in the first place that Miranda uses demons to monitor the battle directly.

But the knight who came to report denied Miranda's words.

"Titania's right hand is alive and well in reports of objects. Spears' three sisters are being pushed."

"What? Why do you have a right arm?

"Whatever you say..."

The knight struggled to respond, but Miranda wondered how this situation was that she couldn't move herself. If there is an alphilis here, including demons and means of transmission, I don't know why. Whenever we hear reports of Jaeger's battle directed by Alphilis, we are surprised by the speed and accuracy with which that information is communicated.

Where Miranda tried to increase her own use of demons, the next report came.

"A young man in black is on his way to Titania."

"Young man in black? What's your name?"

"is that - unknown"

"What do you mean?

"Isn't that Miranda's handkerchief?

Eliza, who had refrained beside him, cast doubt on him. Miranda also received another report, the first time she had heard of it.
