Everyone ended up in the name of the head of the Royal Sorcery Division.
Not that I could have predicted from the face of the Royal Sorcery Division that attacked the Mansion. I didn't want to believe it. Assuming a heavy town serving the country commits treason, etc.
"Crap - there's no way we can take the country even if the magicians have formed a party."
There are court magicians who are superior to the head of the Royal Sorcery Division.
Even if we don't have all twelve, the original prescribed number, we have no better chance of beating the traitors than we have a rare presence recognized in the country as magicians.
"Are you talking about the court magician?
"That's right. No matter how much the head of the Sorcery Division can beat a court sorcerer."
If you don't try to fight, you won't know victory or loss. Actual combat and such.
But no matter how strong Leonard Gallagher is, it's impossible to deal with all the court magicians.
Aside from the story again, assuming there are a few people of equal strength to Leonard, the head of the Royal Sorcery Division, as far as I've seen the Royal Sorcery Division the other day. Of course, there will be hidden forces.
Some human beings, like the raiders Jared fought in the Duke of Lüdiger's territory, should be obviously powerful. But there are not only court magicians in the country.
"It's not just court magicians, there's also the Knights. Even the Sorcerer's Association hasn't shut up. It's impossible for you to get this country."
What worries me is how many people belong to the Sorcerer's Association as traitors.
I'm not worried about the Knights. Jared, who had already obtained information from the mouths of the sorcerers who fought, knew that the rebels were the army of orthodox sorcerers. Then the Knights will not be one of us, nor will they be.
If the sorcerer is trying to take the country for the sorcerer, the knight will not be included in the people. Because being a magician is the big premise.
"Heh. I don't even know if that word is serious, or if it's strong. You lose, Jared."
It distorts the grin that was floating more ugly, and the woman laughs. Sounds fun, just saying it's delightful, hoisting my lips all ripped up.
As she rang her fingers, Ernesta, as the puppet, hit the knife and Olivier's neck again.
"Stop it!
I realized I couldn't do it anymore.
Jared continued the conversation because he hoped someone would come to the Mansion, who he noticed strangely. We already knew that we could not even fight any more than we were taking the dear Oliviers hostage and turning to the rear.
Perhaps the face of the Royal Sorcery Division was also on its way to those on whom it relied.
"I'm not gonna kill you. 'Cause when you kill a hostage, it doesn't make sense."
"- Jared. Never mind me."
Olivier speaks up to Jared, who is about to cry.
I am not feeling wonder and fear. Now I just want to do what I can for my precious fiancée - that's all.
"Will you shut up?"
"I'm glad you care about us, but you do what you have to do. Jared, you are a court magician."
"... just shut up"
"I'm more than ready to be your wife."
I told you to shut up.
A woman who kept being ignored leaves it to anger to hit Olivier in the cheek.
Olivier stares at such a woman as to shoot through her.
"Oh, you've changed your tone. I don't know what's going on - we can't afford it."
"You, I'll kill you!
"You can kill me if you want. If you can do it, do it, and you won't know how Jared will behave if you kill me. That's why you can't kill me. I can't kill every human being in the mansion. No?"
"-"
The woman responded with silence to Olivier's question. That was the response.
I don't know what I would do to Jared, who lost me if I hurt one hostage. My father tells me not to do just that. But Jared can't move if he doesn't do anything.
Only by guaranteeing the safety of the hostages can we seal off Jared's movements, the most vigilant of court magicians.
"... Wow. Yeah, that's good. I'm not gonna kill you guys, and I'm not gonna hurt you. Wow. But the results won't change. Hey, Jared?
The woman nastyly distorts her face and approaches Jared, grabbing her jaw.
"Your precious person won't hurt you. Wow. But that, uh, presupposes you won't resist. Do you understand?
"Oh, I know"
"Jared!
Olivier roughed up his voice as he blamed it, but Jared glances back at the woman in front of him.
"Good boy. Then I want you to declare it. It's a surrender."
"Okay. So don't you dare lay your hands on the Oliviers."
"It's up to you to keep your word, Jared."
I can't resist being irritated by the deliberate tone. If only Olivier had been held hostage, he would have saved it in lieu of his life.
But she's not the only hostage. Even if I risk my life, I can't save everyone.
Jared, who bite his lips painfully, opened his mouth after a long silence.
"My loss."
The promise that Olivier and I would never lose again was never fulfilled.
