In the end, Baas managed to get back to the inn.

The two surviving detectives were supposed to know about the inn but didn't track it down.

Though I didn't get a hand injury per se, I went back with the exhilaration caused by a long time of murder and a strange cleavage......

"Bloody...... what happened?!

"Are you hurt?! What, return blood?!

"Either way, that's a great amount!?

Normally, he was blamed for escorting the inn.

A natural conclusion if you think about it. If you beat him to death with a wooden knife, you'd still be bleeding back if you cut him straight off with an iron sword.

Not only is it on the battlefield, but it is natural to wonder what it would be like if the innkeeper returned bloody.

Rather, it is something that has often been walked this far. No matter how much the King's Capital is at a time when shade deception is coming to an end, there will be limits.

Sometimes the inn convenient to the mountain water was an inn of character there, and despite the late night many employees showed up in a hurry.

"As it is… First, let me take care of your meal"

"Hey, boil the water!

"Just a moment, I'd like to take a moment."

Even if it's cheap lodging there, if a guest in this condition walks in, he'll pay up front.

Bloody guests, the inn gets dirty before the weather. So I couldn't let it go up like that.

A formidable swordsman to see, there was also a style that was not considered a crime.

The gendarmerie will never be called, just pale and treated so that Baas has no problem entering the inn.

"Hear that, that customer said it was an introduction to that Sansui-sama!

"Heh, that dragon killer!

"Then that Mitsuhito is also a leading swordsman!

As we receive it, we hear less well-educated employees.

The visibility of mountain waters seems to be immense, even if it is the King's capital, not the Sopeid territory.

That makes me a little proud and equally jealous. Because I also really wanted to be a swordsman who would be afraid of the people this way.

"So that return blood is also a sign of some idiot's decapitation?

If that's what you think, something's going wrong with me.

"Then again, the neck is lined up in front of the Sopede mansion..."

I wonder what it is again.

"Oh man, a bunch of uneven necks... just shudder to remember"

"That's not normal. I can't believe you're doing that."

"Have you heard of it? That" exposed neck "doesn't hold the target in place when he drops his neck."

"Oh, I've heard of it... if 'Exposed Neck' slashes you, they won't notice it until your neck falls off..."

The fact that one of the aliases of mountain water is the exposed neck makes me plain depressed.

Or I didn't like what I thought was the same kind of thing.

To say what I hate the most, I guess I can't say that mountain water isn't the kind of guy who would do that because mountain water was where he dropped his neck and showed it against the serfdom rebellion.

"Come on, can you do that?"

"No, that's better. I was more excited to see Kensei actually fight."

"Oh, all the customers said," Kid-Faced Kensei is real, "or," That's not human business, "or," I do live five hundred years, otherwise it's weird. "

"Even the trump card of the Bathrub was once, twice, and three times, torn by the sword saint!

"I hear even the dragon tore it apart like a dish! They split the bones, the meat and the scales nicely!

I have to convince myself that stories I've never actually seen are also true.

The uncut and exalted made me care less as I stood ears to ear.

I didn't have to meet the person to feel that way, so the mountain water I make was different in character.

The mountain water was getting reports that Baas committed murder last night.

If a man dies in the king's capital on a boulder, he can't finish it.

Baas was blurring his position while telling him that he had been abetted to commit a crime and refused.

The mountain water believed it. In fact, whoever thinks about it, Baas doesn't have the flavor to take it.

The surrounding faces will also think that the hunted down intelligence agents just stormed out. It really wasn't anything else.

"He said he got pinched by four people, cut two of them off and ran away"

"Well, yes."

To put it again, it was too cliché. They take it like they're not doing a lot of work.

It wasn't actually strange to die, it was an escape from the predicament of absolute despair, but there was a difference in cloud mud from the martial arts tradition of mountain water.

I also feel that the comparison is too bad, but I still want a few more modifiers.

"Well, compared to you who beat down a country, it's not going to be much different than the Tavern's martial arts tradition."

"No, without such inferiority. I, too, swordsman, know the horror of being targeted by a bow in a narrow place."

"That's white... you wouldn't have to use rare magic to win"

Mountain water would vividly dodge it without endangerment, even if it was targeted from front to back in a crossbow.

If there is no problem with using immortal art, it is finished packing the time in shrinkage.

"If you say that, there's no kiri. The important thing is to understand what you can do and believe it and fight for it. It doesn't depend on coincidence or luck."

"Well yes... with about five more of them I couldn't beat the boulder..."

"Intuitively discerning it is due to your experience. I think you can be proud."

Mountain water had heard the explanation from Baas and inferred and told him what the other person was thinking and acting on.

That was something Baas was also convinced of, and as always very understandable.

At the same time, the uncut when I cut it comes to mind.

"I don't seem very happy, what's wrong with you?

"... some of the guys who killed him knew his face"

"Really?"

"I don't know if I'd say this to you, but he was up to defend his country. That's like that old man."

To be honest, I was reviewing it.

I looked better at risking my life for even an operation that would fail, no matter what anyone thinks, than a very difficult operation that would succeed and raise a medal of arms.

At first it was all about glamour, but now that I think about it, I guess he's just desperate.

Baas rivaled the mountain waters, of which he lay low and bent his own narrative.

But still, I'm not particularly in trouble with Baas. It was snaggy, but I didn't lose anything in particular.

But that's because Baas is an individual, and Kat couldn't back down, no matter how mighty he was and how many failures he made.

Because there was no such thing as a way back, not in his country or his people.

"He's a nobleman, too, I thought."

"It's good to have respect for someone you're hostile to, too."

"Then I'd like to ask you..."

Baas had the opportunity to save the country.

There was little prospect of success, but if Kat himself were in the same situation, he would have gone without hesitation.

"Do you despise and look down on a fool who's going into such a big country knowing he's going to die?

"No. You'll respect it, than the way the mighty ravages the weak without any particular need"

The mountain waters remind me of Swibbock.

I respect and appreciate it, but some parts of it I don't respect.

Rather than, I think there are aspects that should not be imitated.

"Me, too."

Baas can honestly speak of respect for the weak.

But that's also why I'm lost.

I wonder if I deserve to be respected right now.

"It was cooler to cling to an unreliable man like me than to use a cluttered soldier around my head. So, what about me?

To see, therefore, I am a deserter.

I did not flee before my enemies, but I have abandoned them instead of abandoning my country.

How is that seen from the surroundings?

I wonder what people I meet in this country think, not just talking about the mountain waters in front of me.

"What do you think about me not trying to fight for my hometown?

"He said he was feeling a draw."

"Oh."

"You don't have to worry about it, at least not everyone in the Arcana kingdom. There are a lot of people in this country who have abandoned their homeland like you."

I'll say something terrible for you, but it's true, so I can't help it.

Arcana has taken the talented, both martial and civilian.

That would mean that the wounds were so deep in this war that at the same time many talented people would have limited their country.

"Are they good, nobles?

"Because they're dragons..."

"... I guess so"

Nothing but suicide, such as waging war with dragons without the Eight Kinds of Divine Treasure. Only immortals with superb martial arts such as Swibok, Fuukei and Mountain Water can do that.

As for the Arcana kingdom, which actually remembered it, we could not call the talent who fled and sought acceptance a cowardly loser.

"Besides, some nobles also sought to emigrate per inhabitant. In that sense, we can also say that he did not neglect his duty to the people"

"It's not all those guys, is it?

"Even if you say noble, you can't have a territory or a people, because many of you are officials such as a second son."

"... well, you know what?"

"Of course, I will not deny the state or the people, the kings or nobles, them all who want to protect them. I rather respect you, it's just..."

The mountain water reminds me of when I managed to make it to war with the dragons.

I was traveling through the void then to protect the entire nation, but it was full of things about my inner family.

I couldn't help but want to go to places where my family was likely to be, such as my parents' house in Blois, the main house in Sopede, and Wang Capital.

"Because every person wants to protect it."

"I don't have anything like that."

"What are you talking about? You must care about yourself."

It wasn't due to narcissism, it wasn't self-defense, it was due to my beliefs.

Baas weighs his creed more than his own life.

It would be a big difference from the people who have nothing important.

"If you didn't want to protect your country, you just have to find your way to believe. Your life is nobody's property. If you don't feel step-by-step with the state, and you don't have an important companion or beloved superior, you can do whatever you want."

That doesn't mean you can do whatever you want......

"You have not lived a life so thin and ambiguous that you feel attracted to others."

While mocking himself, the mountain waters were courageous.

"You know what?"

"That's what it is."
