The three men, after a while, left, and Almark and Morgen also returned to the inn room.
"You said you were gonna kill Wendy... you said that"
Morgen groans blushing.
"Yeah. From what I've heard, it seemed like those guys were the ones harassing the Bar Herb family mansion, and Miletos, to whom Wendy moved, had a separate team. Let them kill Wendy, like..."
"Killing people is like cleaning up a job like that."
Morgen said, staring into the sky.
"They're terrible, mercenaries."
"... right"
Almark can only snort.
"I can't forgive you. I don't want them to come to our kingdom of Galais."
"... yeah"
Almark nods again.
Nevertheless, the presence of mercenaries is only possible if there is an employer. In other words, there are people in this Galais kingdom who don't get their hands dirty and hire mercenaries to use them for assassinations.
That's what Almark thought, but he didn't put it in his mouth.
Morgen was angry at the mercenaries earlier, but suddenly had an uneasy look.
"But what do I do? Should I tell Wendy's father about this?"
"I thought about that too..."
says Almark.
"The Bar Herb family mansion is inside the walls. I need to take a day tomorrow to line up at the castle gate and get tested. I can't get in. Even when you get to the Bar Herbs, there's no Wendy or Mr. Ward who knows about us. There's no way to prove we're Wendy's classmates."
"Uh..."
"The mansion will be on strict alert, and it's unlikely you'll catch it. Even if we're lucky enough to catch up, how decent a kid like us would be to get it together if he told a story he heard by accident that he didn't even know if it was true."
"Right..."
"That's all, if I'm bad, it'll take me about two days. If you could believe the story and put out a use for Miletos, it would be an awesome waste of time. Something could happen to Wendy in the meantime."
"You can't do that."
"Yeah."
Almark nods.
"So I think it would be most realistic for us to get in tomorrow's white horse car and go to Miletos as planned"
"What are you gonna do when you get to Miletos?"
"Visit Wendy and tell Mr. Ward about their plans. Strengthen security so they can't get their hands on it. If they knew their plans were leaking, they wouldn't be able to do it."
"I see."
Morgen nods.
Then we have to hurry.
"Yeah. If you're a white horse car, you'll get to Miletos the day after tomorrow. In those stories, in three more days, I heard the words. I don't know what that means, but if it's about the raid on Miletos' mansion, we'll make it the day after tomorrow."
"... ok"
Morgen nodded with a serious face.
"If that's what Almark says, let's do it. I believe in Almark."
"Thank you, Morgen"
"I don't know why this happened, I guess."
Morgen sighs in a big sigh.
"I also know that Morgen doesn't really like this kind of thing"
Almark nodded.
"I'm sorry we talked about this on our vacation trip..."
"It's not your fault."
Morgen waved.
"I'm a man, too. I can't show my back to a girl's pinch."
That's what I say and make you smile.
"Well, thanks to you, I can get in the white horse car for the first time in my life, and don't miss it tomorrow, let's go to bed already today"
"... right"
Impressed by Morgen's switching speed, Almark also smiled and nodded.
