"So, Hiro, you are.

At the end of his visit to Nobles, he made his way to Ease's office.

... take the old master to the showtime.

From my first conversation, though I did.

I can tell when it happens now.

I can hardly be alone with a family name.

Around whenever... the Brotherhood or whoever said servant is nearby.

In the kingdom, if a man wants to talk to each other, this is the easiest thing to do.

"If the old master had been here.

I told him everything, threw up such stupidity at the end, and I realized.

The old teacher always shows up at the right time. That's not the ratio of Joe the Stonehead.

But.

At that time, the old master was not in Woodmell.

"I didn't feel like I should go yet. I thought it was for Takashi's training, but wasn't that all?

"If you're an old teacher, what's wrong? I helped Alan, who was a child, if he was an old teacher?

"I don't know. To not see the child. I don't know if I helped. I don't know if I put my hand down.

Unexpectedly, I saw the old master's face properly.

Because it's all about helping, I thought.

"'He was a child who knew nothing, so he was deprived of his free will, so he had no choice. Alan is not guilty'. Is that the idea of a different world?

... but?

"'Even children, sin and punishment are no different from adults'. That's the way the kingdom thinks. Nine years old is hard to say a child. Than a matter of age... if you came out on the battlefield, you're a samurai/soldier. As such, they are encountered.

I remember.

Two and a half years ago, about the first line.

Theodor van Bosse, as "to atone for his sins," has joined the battle in a clan outing.

Take me to my five-year-old grandson.

Obviously he was trapped, out of place, but was told by his surroundings, "You can't go home".

Because it would be a "getaway before the enemy".

Age doesn't matter, because it's going to be a disgrace to follow for the rest of your life.

You don't put young people on the battlefield because if you're not prepared or physically fit, you "expose" them to ugly imitations.

Because it would be dishonorable to the person and hence to the house...

You think it's "healthy growth of the child" or "protection"? Not for that reason.

There is no forgiveness for those who go out on the battlefield.

That's what I'm getting at.

But.

"The old master helped Alan, didn't he?

"Because I intuited when I got back on my feet. That's the idea of naive parties. Conversely, if you intuit that you have no eyes to recover, it doesn't matter if you are a child. Whether that child or Alan...... Would you know that? Work behind naive parties.

The old master's voice went low.

Oh, I know.

Save the anomalies that are being clawed out of society, while the anomalies that are absolutely incompatible with society, "process" them.

Sacred divinity does the same thing.

... No, it is the Sacred Divinity that does not do anything to save and is all about "processing".

"The old master wasn't there..."

"Fortunately for me, I don't know. You believe me, Hiro, and I will entrust you with a child. But? If you decide you need to kill me, Hiro, I will fall prey to your trust and the club's policy.

"Having one child, keeping means….

"Come on. It's heavy. Perhaps with you, Hiro, you knew.

"When you figure it out, just think sweet. Naïve meeting. Think of something that would make people wipe their asses.

"There are things that people can and cannot do. Hiro, you're not the only one. There are things I can and cannot do, both for me and for the Innocence.... mourning what's past, what choice do we have? You know that, too.

Again, you're deluded.

Calvin, who ponders and thinks, is the opposite of holy divinity.

"Don't take a deep peek, is it?

"Let it be, let it be.

"I don't even have to admit it. As far as I can, I just have to do it....?

"That's fine.

And gently hammered, that moment.

The old master smiled down his face.

"Now, Hiro, you. There are only a few things that can be done for an inanimate meeting. If you wish to cooperate in the activities, I would appreciate it. And not even me, I can't abandon my feelings of sticking with holy divinity. Hiro, I think you're very close to the Innocence Club.

Oh, no more!

With this face, this tone! It's like it's not nasty!

I don't think so.

"Then double the holy divinity. Forty large gold coins will be dishonored. It's not even mine, it's the limit.

"This is unusual. I think I urged you, I'm sorry.

"No, because the two denominations are a support for the soldiers on the front line. I appreciate it.

I'm supported, too.

... It's a lot of hard talking about money though. You can use it this way, too.

Take it off between or lighten up the place?

And back, Ease's office.

Raina, who was disturbed in the morning, was getting back on track.

"Hiro! You're going to meet my asshole surroundings, aren't you? Because I'll follow you!

"It's nothing good. With Acaius, you'll be in shape.

"Not so! Uh, I don't know anymore. I want to see how stunning the box is!

Indeed.

No matter how high Raina's format, it can't be good to be recognized, such as threatening His Royal Highness the King's messenger to let the box out.

"So do you want to go see him?

"You idiot! I'm the fourth lowest and the Viscount. You want me to go meet the asshole around me!? Call me over here!

Without waiting for his life, his squire Emme Fiyard leaves the room.

I felt indescribable empathy for that over-trained back.

"So, once we're out of here, right?

Put Maria's voice on the signal, everyone out of the office.

I'm gonna be three with Akaius and me. No, Rayna's cutting in.

"What are you hiding? Puke properly and make it easier!

"No, not particularly.

"You haven't noticed for yourself? You don't look like that until you've got people in your hands. Today is a particularly terrible face. How many have you slaughtered?

"I can't count. Because it comes with command. At our behest, tens of millions will bleed.

"I'm not, I'm telling you, there were some people who pulled out the knife directly and slashed it.

Think back and realize.

"No, that's zero.

I haven't slaughtered anyone in this war yet.

In the western mountains, I just banged the enemy commander.

In the plains to the east, I just watched Sarah and Latifah.

"So that face? That's crazy. I don't look the same when I let people die on my own instructions.

What you take a good look at.

I made fun of this one again with my eyes...... And I was hoping.

The prediction was betrayed. Outreach, he looks serious.

"Hiro. Look at that.

Raina points to the map that was in the office.

A map of the entire Polar East Road.

"Philia said at the cultural festival, didn't she? If we hold down Ease, we can secure the southern half of Far East Road. The North Half, he said, could attack favorably.

You're revolting, I admit it.

"He's a dead Snook, though. Lord Lehmon, I used to come to my house for meetings with Mr. Walter. Mr. Walter was wrapping his tongue around Snook's analysis that, 'In the Far East, this will be his last chance'. So the next time Snook came, I caught him and squeezed him.

Usually, I think it's a disaster.

Now, that too...

"He said. 'Given the economy and population, there should be no wars in the Far East in the coming decades from the Kingdom's side'. You heard that before, didn't you? Both Dexter's parents and children, and Alex's.

Raina's hand points to the end of the map.

"Although it presupposes winning this war. Wouldn't you be building a Wall like Fort Rossa in the mountains north of Woodmell? Make that a line of defense, and the Far East will be safe. If you can't get in from the other side, there won't be a war unless you get out of here. That's what this is all about, isn't it?

After all, did it look like Rayna too?

Cooperative relationship between Woodmell and Meadier, the meaning of which.

"Men don't. 'This is my last chance to name someone who's experienced the Great War,' but I was thrilled. That's not the point of this war. The Far East will be at peace for 30 years and 50 years, two generations and three generations.

You know that, right?

Raina's eyes increased seriousness.

"Everyone in the new capital is worried about their husbands and sons. We noblemen, who are always asked to face difficulties, cannot make weak noises. Still, you'd rather be alive than dead. It's obvious, right? All the more so for the common people. Guys, I'm having a hard time.... There can't be no more wars in this world, I know that. If you're going to be at peace in decades, you've never been over that, have you?

"Oh. Exactly.

I agree. From the bottom of the belly.

"If you know, don't look like that! As much as I killed a man!

What's the matter, Rayna?

Doesn't seem like it either.

You have unfamiliar feelings for samurai and military men who kill people when it comes to professions...

"Do you know why this war happened? Have you ever thought about who's responsible?

"No, that's the North Thief you've been attacking, isn't it?

"It's not! I just said, if Woodmell's Great Wall had been completed, this war wouldn't have happened! The peace we should have, we're ten years late!

"Hey, no way!?

I shouldn't name it.

He's the deceased!?

Everybody's mourning that death. You're the one, aren't you?

Mostly in front of Acaius......

"Yes! The late Earl Woodmell is bad! Even if I abandoned Meadier when he had a total collapse, that battle was won! If he had survived, he could have built it!

I suppressed Akaius with my eyes. He also gave his mouth.

"To Rayna, I will never forgive Tachibana.

I don't regret killing my child anymore.

But there's something to reflect on.

There are good things about giving the Brotherhood discretion and things that should never be given.

No more, definitely.

"Reply!?

"I understand... I have done it. My lord......

"I know. This is the only way I can name your temple.

The time allowed for the conversation of the Lord was short.

Rayna keeps squeezing her words.

"Hiro, you're not getting it. Aristocrats are those who stand above people, that's what they are. I can't let my personal feelings of affection and justice shake me up. You can be cowardly, cruel. If it's for everyone in the Far East to laugh, what are you gonna do without us taking the initiative and hurting our hearts!

From across the desk, eyes that look at this one.

It was moist.

"It's okay. If you're Hiro, even if you try to be cruel, it's because you have limits. It's hectic. In Raina de la Tachibana's eyes, there is no mistake.

Open that moist eye and put your finger on it.

Gently, I was wiping it.
