When I grab my head from the back, I can't see what kind of face the crazy is, but I can almost imagine it.Until now, I've seen these people's last faces, and there's always only one face.

Her face twisted with fear.

I think she looks like that.

As I think about it, I rotate the crazy head as far as I can.

Goki Goki Goki!!

"Geez..."

The sound of the neck bone chirping and the sound of a voice leaking out of my mouth remain in my ears.

Finally, my face, that of a crazy guy who turned directly behind me, looked as expected, dominated by fear.

Gotcha...

The crazy fell to the ground with his body lying flat on his back and his head looking at the sky, he doesn't twitch.Seeing that, I shouted at Suratan-sama.

I'll be on my way to cover you!

Yeah!

Suratan and I immediately turned our backs on Master and Ganasaris as they fought.

Mistress stood in front of Ganasaris, or almost next to her, and pressed her sword against Ganasaris' chest.

The moment Ganasaris' left arm was waving at Master, I could see Master's right arm slapping the top of the sword.

I can't see what happened when I got quite close to the exchange.

Suraitan and I headed to Master as quickly as we could.

* giggle *

In the end, it was Ganasalis who fell, and it was master's victory, but by the last blow, master suffered a serious injury to his back.

Master!!

"Nil?! Are you all right?!"

Even though you are the one who is injured, Master is worried about us for some reason.When I was told, because I was showering my body with the blood of buckwheat, it was dressed like brand new blood covering my whole body.By the time I got here, I had bled too much and my sense of smell had gone crazy, so I completely forgot.

"This is return blood, so we're fine!"Sinya is better than you! "

I pushed it a little harder...

Your back hurts, Master, and your face warps.

It's bleeding, so we need to treat it soon...

I check my surroundings silently.

"Master! Please wait a moment!"

I draw magic circles and activate intermediate Earth magic, Walllock.

Currently, it seems that there are no enemy soldiers deployed north of here, and as long as there is a shield wall on the south side, it should be fine for a while.

Ladies and gentlemen!!

At that time, just like us, Heine-san and Pilté, who had turned their bodies bright red with blood, would join us.

Cynthia-san?!

"It's okay, it's a big wound, but it's not a big one."

"It's a serious wound! I'll heal it immediately!"

"Oh, oh... please."

When I say it out loud, Master, I say I'm sorry.

Master always thinks too lightly about his injury.It certainly hasn't reached the bone, and although the muscles have not been seriously damaged, it is not a good injury to leave it alone, and I think it is a serious injury at that time.

Master, if you don't say it out loud, I'll tell you it's okay and leave the injury, so I have to tell you strongly.

This is what I imagine on my own... but Master has lost too many of his loved ones so far, so I don't think his injuries are any bigger than their suffering.

However, when it is really dangerous injury, I don't say such a thing, and I don't think it is because I want to die, so I don't think it is such a dangerous idea, but... after all, from my point of view, even if my husband is small, I can't bear to get hurt.Your heart feels like it's getting cold because it's gwoosh around your chest.

I will treat your husband's injury immediately.

"Master is right, it hasn't reached the bone, and the muscles haven't been damaged that much, but please don't move too much for a while."

"Even if you tell me not to move..."

Even though I knew it was strange to say it on the battlefield, I could see the wound opening when I was moving around.

"As long as we can, we'll do our best, so please support your master with magic."

I don't know how long I can keep doing that before I get this many.However, this is not just about your mistress, but what the five of us need to survive.

Of these five, I'm pretty sure that Master is the most powerful of them all.Everyone here understands that.

And in short, it's nothing more than that Master is the pillar of this party.If such a master were to engage in a fierce battle in an incomplete state, our chances of survival would drop dramatically.In order not to do so, I would like my husband to maintain the condition as complete as possible.

"... I understand. But when something happens, I'm not hesitating to go forward."

Yes.

The mistress also accepted that it was our agreement and turned to us for back support.

What happened to Fear's unit?

"I think it has already been told that Gana Saris is dead.The people I was dealing with earlier were making noise.I have seen those who have retreated, but not all of them.After all, it's a big thing that other bandits are also joining. "

"That's right..."

While hammering at the story of Pilate, Master seemed to be deciding on the future.

The plan was that if Fear's building fell, other bandits would recognize us as clear enemies and move to eliminate us.

Perhaps your master is right, and the bandits who belong to the other bandits will soon try to kill us.Even if the information is not conveyed yet or is conveyed, I think it will take time if the number is moved.

This means that after a while, another unit will be coming around here.How we move from here will determine whether we can successfully pull this army.

"I don't know how many Fears are left, but I don't have time to clean them up."I'm going to go get the other head. ”

Is the city okay...?

"... I don't know."

The Earthwall that had already covered the city has been broken through.Perhaps the North Gate has already been broken through, or is close to it.However, even if we turn back here, there are limited things we can do, and that does not lead to a radical solution.

All we have to do is crush the men who command this great army as soon as possible.

If they find out that Fear's building is dead, Puppets and Tempest's troops will send some of them to us.If that happens, the raid on the city will be relaxed.This is the only way to protect the city indirectly by tearing the overall flow away from the city.

First of all, it's not a good idea to wander around here, let's move.

“Which way are you going?”

Heine. Pilte. Do you have any idea what the opponent's formation is like?

"I wasn't at such a high place, but... the last time I saw it, I didn't see anything in the future."

There almost seemed to be an even flow of people to the east and west. "

If I were to determine the position of the opponent from the formation, I would say that the puppets and tempests were spread out separately on the left and right, or that the bandits on both sides were mixed together into a mixed unit...

“I think it's the latter.”

Is that so?

"Yes. There are too many people, and I and Pilate have just noticed, but apparently there are mixed slaves all over the battlefield."

A slave... is that a puppet?

From what I've heard, Puppets are slave bandits, who basically make money from slave exchanges.However, since that method is illegal, it seems that people who have been forced into slavery are being traded illegally.

If there are slaves mixed up in this battlefield, it's definitely the slaves who are forced to join rather than the members of Puppet...

Probably someone with experience in battle or not, must have been placed on the battlefield and given some orders.

"I guess... then the Puppet building will be in a place where it's easy to give directions to either side... If there's no one around here, will it be further behind?"No... not necessarily...

I don't know where Puppet's building is.First of all, let's head east. "

Is it okay to stop by one side?

"When Kevin and Hanatha shut the West Gate, they should be going around the city with their voices.In other words, evacuation should begin from the residents of the west, moving north, east and for evacuation.If you think that the eastern side will be the most delayed evacuation, you'll have to cut down the eastern side. ”

"I see. I get it."

"If Heine and Pilte find a slave, read their memories."I want to find out about Puppets or Tempest.That said, I'm sure slaves can only get information about Puppets... but Ganasalis has been killed. "

I was trying to read more about other bandits from Gannasaris, but Gannasaris is already dead.If you're not alive, Heine and the others won't be able to read your memories.

It seems that even Master was not someone who could be incapacitated alive.

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

Let's go.

We were to move to the east as instructed by our mistress, looking at the troops unfolding to the east with our right hand.

Nevertheless... when people like Puppets take on, there will be more opportunities for slaves to take on from here.

A slave absolutely obeys his master's orders.Even if it's a life-threatening order, you'll die if you don't obey it.

A slave must obey his orders if he has a one percent chance of survival.If you refuse the order, you will die a hundred percent on the spot.

From the time I heard of the slave bandits, I thought that I would have to fight against slaves, but there are some places I really think that I will have to fight.Even though I am a slave, the mistress who cares for me must be the same.

Ladies and gentlemen.

So I opened my mouth as I moved.

"If you have to swap blades with slaves, be careful not to hesitate."

"Nil..."

"Nil-san..."

Everyone looks at me and says something, but they don't say anything more.The expression on his face is that he doesn't know what to say.

"More than being a slave, they can die or fight."And being here means those who could not choose death on their own volition.Such slaves do their utmost to live.Therefore, if you hesitate, you will definitely fall into their sword. "

In particular, Master and Master Suratan have a very different way of thinking about slavery than the people in this world.Since there are no slaves in the demon world, Heine-san and Pilté have a different way of thinking, but they are residents of this world and are resistant to killing people, so if they are killed, the idea of killing is common sense.

But Master and Suratan didn't have it.I don't think your husband can swing down the attack even if it dampens his experience through the battle to this day.But there was no doubt that it would be dull.

With so many people on the battlefield, there is more than a good chance that it will kill you.

You're scared of those who don't have time...

Master's face was a little dark.

Almost no slave has ever wanted to be on this battlefield.I think turning the blade on such an opponent would be very difficult for a kind master and Suratan. But...

“Yes, that's how we're going to survive with whatever hands we have.

so..... "

"... slaughtering slaves... that means being prepared to kill them."

"I'm sorry if this is an unreasonable situation."

"No, that's not true.

If Nil hadn't told me, I would have hesitated when I actually saw it in front of me. "

………………

Suratan-sama looked very troubled.

The people who have killed here, whatever their nature, are bandits, and they've done what they can to be killed.So I could at least find justice in myself.

But when you see slaves as human beings, you tell them, and they become pathetic people manipulated by their scumbag masters.

Unlike those who blindly believed in Fjorde and tried to kill us, we are in a situation where we cannot help but dislike ourselves.I think it's painful to just think about killing those people.

"... even innocent soldiers put their hands on it, so I think they can fight against it..."But I might hesitate... "

Sura-Tan...

"... sorry..."

"No, that's fine.When a slave becomes an opponent, Surakitan will be your rearguard.We'll take care of it as best we can. "

"... sorry..."

I apologize a second time, Lord Suratan.

However, it was very important that Master Suratan made it a word because he thought it might not be possible.

If you're too strange to tell me what you really mean, and you hesitate when you have to fight, everyone will be in danger.Before that happens, just say that you may not be able to do it, and everyone else and I can deal with it in that way.It is completely different from knowing it from the beginning and not knowing it.All we have to do is fight according to the way you told us.

Besides, I think it's normal to feel reluctant to hurt those people.

"Suratan doesn't have to apologize."I wouldn't want to fight if I could. "

……………

All of us feel what your master said.If everyone can do it, I don't want to kill those people.

But I can't say that I won't hesitate to kill the opponent I'm trying to kill.For Suratan-sama, that's all I could say.I'm not saying I can't fight, so I don't have to worry about it.Each does what he or she can and covers what he or she cannot.It's a party.

"From here on, I'm going to stand around as far as I can to avoid being turned around."Let's make the best possible use of what is placed outside the formation. "

You mean you're going to hit it fine and scrape it off little by little?

"Yeah. If I find a slave in there, I'll disable it, kidnap him, and read his memories."

We just need to do everything we can to neutralize them.If I feel that it is dangerous, I will not hesitate to slash it, but I can do something like that, right? "

Master will say it to me with a gentle face.

I dared not hesitate to cut down the slave, but I dared to say something harsh because I thought that if I didn't, there would be more occasions where I would hesitate from here on out.And it was the result of thinking that someone had to put it into words and that it was my job to be the only slave.

Mistress, having understood that, gave me a slightly gentle answer.

It's dangerous to hesitate, and I can't afford to get hurt.But that's why you don't have to mercilessly kill the slaves you find one after another.If we can neutralize it without killing it easily, it's still enough.It is not black or white, and the grey answer was given.

Really, I've always been saved by the kindness of my mistress. I can only thank you.

I nodded tinyly and returned it to my mistress.

A few minutes after we finished such an exchange, we confirmed the identity of the intended slave.

It was hardened and moving by a few people, but it was in the midst of the bandits, and I couldn't even notice it by just looking at it.

"Even if I bring you here... you're in a wave of people,"

"I don't think it's easy to bring people from that crowd..."

I see... can you read my memories on the spot?

"I can do it, but when I'm reading my memories, I'm defenseless, so please help me."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll never let you touch one finger."

"I'm not worried."Thank you very much. "

Neither Heine nor Pilte seem to be really worried, and they answer with no worries at all.

The slaves seem to be all over the place, and there aren't many of them.In the first place, since we make money from slave trading, it's strange that there are so many products left.Due to the small number, it was arranged thinly and wide across the battlefield, and I think it was ravaged in various ways.

In slave traders such as those who are well licensed, in order to increase the value of goods, they make them small and clean, but slaves who can be obtained through illegal transactions are often handled miscellaneously.

People who buy and sell illegal slaves don't even think about it, and people who buy alcohol if they have the money to use it for slavery.

I don't know if the bandits called Puppets are treating all the slaves in a mess, but at least those who are on the battlefield seem to be treating them in quite a mess.

The hair is also dry and the skin is thin and dirty. There are only people who wrap the cloth around their body so that it cannot be said that the hair is cut.

Your body is also thin and thin, and it looks like you'll fall down just by touching it.When I first met your husband, it looked the same, so I don't think it's any other personnel.

Those five are the ones we're after.

Master's index finger shows five sets of slaves solidified near the outer side of the army.Four men and one woman, two of the Elves, two of the Jews, and one of the Beasts.A woman is one of the three tribes.
