After communicating the operation, Shatia gave Lili a mission and broke up once. In the meantime, Shatia and the brave are supposed to go after Lizardman together.

Again, it should be said, the herd of Lizardmen who apparently received a disease Lizardman was speeding up their legs. I guess you're going to keep moving across the mountain to the next mountain. As a chattier, I wanted to settle before I could cross that mountain.

"Are you sure you're okay? Let Lili go alone..."

"... is Mimi proper and Lili called away? Why?"

"Huh. No... nothing profound..."

While on the move, the brave man concerned about Lili asked, but Shatia did not answer the question, but rather asked him how to call the brave man. The brave man gave a decent face to the unexpected question and made excuses like trouble.

"There's nothing wrong with that. Even if I say alone, it's about reconnaissance, and Lili and I won't be such a jerk... maybe"

Shatia answered that as she walked towards the front. But the last word caught on, and the brave man unexpectedly saw Shatia twice. Shatia has beautiful eyes as clear as she can get. As soon as I saw that face, the brave man was unwilling to ask any more questions.

"My concern is whether the operation will work. I don't think there's anything wrong with me... just in case."

"... in case I make it up to you?

"Exactly"

Looking back, Shatia says so. Poke your finger at the brave man and look sharply as if to remind him that he cannot escape. The brave man wandered for a moment and stopped walking. Likewise, Shatia stops walking and looks at the brave without change.

"... I don't think I have such a big role to play"

That's what the brave man replied as he turned his gaze downwards, hard to say. Put your hands on your chest like you don't feel confident and create a weak atmosphere. When she saw it, Shatia sighed as if she were frightened.

"Sure, you're a lot weaker now than you used to be when we met. But that's why you can't run away. You're gonna fulfill it, aren't you? Be a brave man."

…………

The brave man could not answer anything Shatia said. I just shake my eyes in loneliness and see about Shatia. Shatia also took that gaze quietly.

"Don't worry. I'll take care of it when I say no."

the last ton and slapped himself in the chest. That's what Shatia said. I said with the intention of reassuring him, from the brave man, he was considerably smaller than himself, and it just seemed like an indescribable sight for a young girl to have her breasts stretched. I almost laughed by accident, and the brave put their hands on my mouth. Seeing it, Shatia narrowed her eyes.

"I just want you to tell me a little bit"

Then the two continued to walk for a while, reaching a place where the grass of purpose was dense. Later, just waiting for Lili, who promised to rendezvous here, to come, Shatia sat down on the rock and asked the brave man what he cared about.

"Hmm, what?

"... I want you to tell me what the hell you witches are like."

The brave man nervously ran out of words to the end. I guess my voice was trembling and I squeezed a lot of courage because I was gripping my fist so hard. Shatia did not immediately try to answer, tilting her little neck to think of something as she twisted her own hair with her fingers.

"... Hmm"

Silence flowed between them for a while, neither of them uttering a word. Shatia is thinking with her hair covered and her gaze down. Staring at it, the brave man just shut up and waited for a reply.

Eventually Shatia lowered her fingers and looked up about the brave man. The eyes were as beautiful and clear as ever, making the brave man more and more nervous.

"The answer to that question is very difficult. We're just living because we exist so we can't answer why humans were born."

Shatia said so lightly as she kept her hands open. Certainly there are no specifications for answers when asked about the meaning of existence. But the brave man looked unconvinced.

"First of all, you've been traveling with Lili and Mimi for a long time, haven't you? You didn't ask the two of us in the meantime?

"Mimi told me a little... because Lili is right"

When I asked him that because Shatia was so concerned, the brave man answered with his hands up. Should I say yes or no? She still didn't get any decent information from Lili, and Mimi couldn't really talk about it because there is something about it that Mimi is also thinking about pulling in.

I guess the brave man himself had somewhere to think in the first place and didn't hear much about it. Shatia thought so, putting her hands around her neck as to how she should talk.

"Hmm... right, if I were to explain just a little..."

Shatia was a little worried because she couldn't even teach everything, and when she summed up her thoughts, she began to speak roughly with a touch of her neck.

"To say witch is just a nickname you gave it. All we have to say is [a race], and we're never special enough to say witch."

Shatia goes talking potpourri as she meditates her eyes. The appearance was as gentle as a mother letting her child listen to a babysitting song, giving a warm atmosphere.

"A Race...?

"It's an old race, it's hardly going to survive any more. How many people are alive by now..."

That's all I said. Shatia stopped talking. The look on the face of the brave gets dark as soon as possible. I know what you mean.

The Seven Witches are just a gathering of a certain race. The brave have hunted them. There are those who sealed it, those who revived it, and those who survived it, but not all of them are safe. Some of them could really be dead. Noticing it, the brave man bit his own lips hard.

"Well, it was doomed anyway. It's no different. It's only natural that the old species disappear."

Pong and slapped his knee. Shatia got up from the rock when she said so. All I'm saying is we're done talking. Pay your clothes and start getting ready for the operation. The brave man stood staring at the ground.

"... Mimi and the others know about that?

"... why are you asking me that?

That's what the fu brave asked, and unwittingly Shatia looked back and asked back. The brave man looks quietly at Shathia and approaches him one step closer. Its gaze, as if to explore something, did not let Shatia escape.

"The two of you said they were raised by you from the moment you got your mind on it. You live a long life among witches, admired like a mother by everyone, don't you?... Why don't we tell them who we are?

Listening to the words of the brave, Shatia stood silently facing the front for some time. But eventually he sighed small and shook his head like he'd given up.

The brave man's idea was not that far off target. Surely Shatia is not like the rest of the witches among the witches. He is the one who spent the longest time and raised the other witches. So it wasn't strange that Shatia knew something other witches didn't. But that's not why Shatia answers straight away.

"... there are things in the world that you don't have to know. Brave man."

Shatia doesn't answer. I hide and confuse the truth in the dark. In the end, the brave man could not know what he wanted to know, and the conversation with Chhatia was broken. Shatia didn't even try to tell me anything more, but rather had a sad look on her face.

Then Lili rendezvoused within minutes. As far as reconnaissance is concerned, it seems that the Lizardmans are proceeding with the scheduled course as expected by Shatia, and will be near here in less than a few minutes. Just the border between the mountains and the mountains. It's getting harder and harder to stop them from doing what they're doing if we don't stop them here. Shatia retightened her mind and slapped herself gently on the cheek.

"So, how do we get through the Lizardmans? Shatifar."

Lili asked as she scratched her hair. There must be an awesome operation because it's about Shatia, and her eyes were sparkling, and Shatia glared at it. I coughed once, and she stands one finger up.

"Nothing. Our aim is not to defeat all Lizardman. All you have to do is rescue the hostages so they can perform the ritual."

Shatia explained so as she crossed in front of Lili and circled near the brave.

There is no need for the Shathiers to wage total war with the Lizardmans in the first place. That's all they have to do if they take back the hostages they need in the ritual.

"Attract their attention. In the meantime, Lili and the brave will help Mimi and the others."

Of course, that doesn't mean you can avoid all the fighting. It's inevitable that there will be more strife there than confrontation, and you can't be watching them take hostages back to adulthood. That's why Shatia told Lili and the others to rescue her so she could fight as little as she needed.

"Okay...... and, Shatifar. What about that magic team?

"Hmm? Oh, this one"

Lili noticed that Shatia was raising her arms and preparing to activate the magic, pointing her finger at it. Shatia, who was deploying the magic formation, waves her arms as if she remembered, moving the magic formation forward to herself.

"Hey, I thought I'd erase the mountain."

That's what Shatia said and showed him, laughing karakara. Lili unwittingly pulls her cheeks, and the brave man next to her gives her a look that looks complicated. Shatia distorted her mouth to be funny and moved her fingers gently.
