Chapter 57 The Fallen Nobles

"I'm getting embarrassed by what they say..."

"Fufufu. Perlam may be Nanahi's natural enemy.

"Mother?!

"Am I your... enemy...?!

Parlam shows a desperate expression.

"Ah! No, no! That's not what I meant!

"Oh, really...?

"It's true! You don't look like that!

"Ha, yes!

It seems he has recovered from despair.

"Well... I've talked to you a lot, but I just want to talk to you about one more thing.

………

"But I want to talk to everyone, including Yanashiri. So why don't you take me to the Yanashiri?

Dear Lilina!

"It's okay.

"But!"

"It's okay, Sinya's here.

"This tribe...?

"Parlam doesn't know, does he? I don't know how many people this is..."

"What do you mean...?

"... I have a long time before this leg blows up. I've put myself on the battlefield. That's why I know. This man is as strong as when we Amazones completely freed the Heart Stone… more powerful than that.

"Huh?!

"That's right. I won the match with Master Yanashiri.

"Oh no! To the chief of Amazones?!

"It was just a game.

"Understood? There will be no more escorts.

"Ha... yes.

"Are you in a position to need escorts?

"... you don't have to take it that seriously. Just in case. If you show me the details, I'll tell you everything.

"Okay. It seems better to ask a lot of questions. I'll show you to Yanashiri.

"Please.

Parlam, get out of here.

Dear Lilina! I'm on my way!

"I can't.

Oh, no!

"From here on out, it's our Amazon problem. Perlam knows that, doesn't he?

"... I... still am..."

"... I want Parlam to live Parlam's life. You can live a normal life as a girl of your age and get the happiness you deserve. Stop sticking your neck in our Amazonian problem any longer. If you suck..."

"But..."

"Parlam.

Lilina looked at Parlam with a gentle voice.

Squeeze the skirt tightly and lean down on the parlament.

I don't know what you're feeling either... but I'll tell you what I'm saying.

"Mother."

"Take Parlam with you.

"Nanahi...?

"I know your mother doesn't want to get involved. But if Parlam was raised by his mother, he'd already be like his sister, right?

"Miss...."

"I know how your mother feels, but I also know how Parlam feels....

You don't have to be here to talk, and I won't let anything dangerous happen to you.

"Nanahi....."

"Besides, it looks like seven stones. I can protect my little sister!

"... hah... okay. Nanahi hasn't moved since long ago when he decided like me.

Mother!

Dear Lilina!

"But! But! I won't let anything happen to you, will I? Unlike Nanahi, Parlam can't fight.

"I know! It's just coming! That's good, isn't it?

"If you feel dangerous, I'll force you to throw it out. If that's okay."

"I did it!

"... not at all... similar to anything good... my daughter.

"Lady! Thank you!

"Don't be a lady. We're sisters now.

"... yes! Onee-sama!

"Well, better than a young lady..."

"If we're done here, let's go. I don't know the details, but just in case, I'd like to get out of town in the dark if I need an escort.

"Okay. Parlam, can you bring me my robe?

Yes!

Leave the room as soon as Lina and Parlam are ready. Lilina has a prosthetic leg, but it doesn't mean she can't walk, so she doesn't need a hand.

"Normally, if you try to get out of town, you will definitely see my face, so let's get out through the north gate.

"What's wrong with the North Gate?

"The gatekeeper at the North Gate at night has a lot of money to accommodate. Because I work in a tavern, I am familiar with such stories.

"Ha ha ha. If you are the sign girl of the tavern, you know a lot more than those information shops.

Then why don't we get out of the North Gate... but wouldn't that impress you?

"I see. That's why I'll have Cynthia carry it.

"I see. Don't you understand that if they don't ask you anything... why don't I carry you out of here?

"... I see. That's faster. Can I ask you a favor?

"Leave it to me."

Crouching to the ground, she turned her back, and Lilina put her hands on her shoulders and left her body behind.

"Hey... can't you see my prosthetic legs now?

"It seems okay.

"Please.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

That's Amazonas... the glossy voice rings in your ears and hits your back... no! Don't think!

Not if you care! Trouble retreating!

"Master...?

"Ma'am... Shinya... to my mom..."

Let's go, let's go! Let's go! "

"Ah! Gone!

Going to the north gate to escape, there were two werewolf gatekeepers standing at the north gate.

"I'll go.

Parlam runs toward the gatekeeper with some.

After a few moments of talking and handing over the cash he had in his hand to hide it, he moves his hand towards us.

"Let's go.

Re-wrap the hood deeply and proceed to the north gate.

The two gatekeepers are distracted as if they had not seen anything.

It was so easy for me to get through the gate that I thought I was being nervous.

"I can't believe how easy it is to get in and out of here... I don't know what to say, is this city okay?

"I've never allowed an intrusion into the inside of the demonic realm... so I wonder if this is a peaceful bluff..."

"Thank you only for now. Let's get to where Yanashiri and the others are waiting.

Outside the city, head for the camp where the Yanasilis will camp.

Sometimes the dawn is approaching, and most people sleep in tents set on the grasslands.

As you lower Lilina and approach the campsite, you can see the back of Yanashiri sitting in front of the fire.

…………

"Yanashiri, we're back.

……………

Yanashiri?

"... I wanted to go too..."

Are you kidding me?!

"Well, if you calm down again, why don't you just go?

"... are you with Sinya and Nil?

"Okay, okay. I'll go with you one day, so get better.

"Mmm! I promise!

"Yes, yes.

Besides, I brought someone here to see me.

"Long time no see.

"Nh!! Master Lilina?!

"Looks like you've placed a lot of trust in Shinya.

"This is a shame..."

"It's okay. I'm a little relieved.

Looks like it was a lot of trouble.

"No...."

"I've known you since I was born. -No need to fix it now.

"... yes. Thank you very much.

"I'd like to talk to you about a lot, but... yes. If you are Yanashiri now, tell everyone what you choose to say from me.

"What happened...?

"I know you went to the werewolf's head mansion and were chased back, but Amazonas is now in a very delicate position. Especially in the werewolf city of Donahaka, the wind has grown stronger against Amazonas since five years ago.

"I remember having a good relationship with Hollow, the head of the werewolf tribe..."

"I see. I'm sure you had a very good relationship when you were in this demonic world. Before I was your mother, Yanashiri was concerned about that. On the contrary, there were fewer races that had bad relationships.

But less than a year after you left the magic world, things started to change.

"First of all, among the remaining Amazonians, those connected to the Devil King were stripped of their status for reasons they didn't know.

"Denial of status?!

"That's right.

"That's... the Devil King?

"This is my prediction, but I don't think it's the devil's idea. The Demon King is not like that... even if you think about giving Amazonas a special assignment.

"Then why did you do that..."

"I think it was the nobles who probably didn't like Amazonas. I didn't have any enemies before Yanashiri.

"Don't you know who you're dealing with?

"I see... as someone who can do this... succubus, part of the Blackwing clan...

I realized here for the first time that there was another reason why I didn't want Parlam involved. Parlam waits as far away as promised.

If the succubus is really involved as expected, Parlam's position will be quite subtle here.

And Nil is the same.

"... Sinya. Don't underestimate yourself. I believe in those who believe. Just because the tribe is hostile does not make it look suspicious.

"... I see. It was a rude worry. I apologize."

"Mm-hmm. I hope you understand.

"Who did Rilina do this to?

"I don't know. Considering the relationship when everyone traveled from the magical world... I can think of a lot of people who don't have anything to do with it.

"... you still have a story to tell, don't you?

"Yes, while we were separated from the Demon King, there were going to be cases of one Amazon after another.

"Incident?"

"At first, there was no other love. You think he was rampaging around the tavern or fighting all over the city?

The number of Amazonians left was small, and we just met, so we gathered immediately to check it out.

Of course, no one did such a stupid thing. But you didn't believe me when I said that.

"Are you saying you've already been handled...?

"Probably... but if that's all it takes, we didn't care that much either.

But those incidents got worse and worse, and they finally became murders.

"How far do you think you're going to go..."

"The victim of the incident was a man named Gurba, the head of the werewolf tribe, the right arm of Hollow.

Hollow thought Gruba was his son. Naturally, that anger wasn't unusual. Hollows who heard about the incident went wild all over the city, and a bunch of werewolf men were around, and they had to stop.

"That's right..."

"Then Hollow, who was completely hostile to Amazonas, became one of the most famous Amazonian haters in the magical world.

"Have you ever lived in such a city?

"This is the city where the incident took place. I've been hiding and gathering information here to find out what happened.

"Why did you go so far...?

"... they say I'm responsible for the incident.

"What?!

"Of course I don't know anything. I knew about a guy named Gruba, but he was hardly familiar, and he was totally sleepy. That's why I tried to uncover the truth..."

"With that leg, I can't get out easily if I'm the killer.

"Besides, if the sequence of events is someone's idea, it would be over by then.

"When that happens, our position in the magical world of Amazonas..."

So what do you call a fallen nobleman?

"Probably when the Devil realized it, he was already out of hand.

"You can do all you want to do to be good that the majority of Amazonians are not in the magical world... I don't care if something of a different status has been deprived, but I can't forgive the dishonorable wet clothes.

"I'm sorry... I couldn't protect everyone's absence..."

"No, it's bad that we've been away for ten years. It's not Lilina's fault. Besides, the blame lies with the person behind this case.

"... in that case, it seems difficult to get help from the werewolves in this situation. You won't be able to see the demon king..."

"I see. I can't get close to the Demon King.

"... as long as we don't solve this, we won't even be able to report the mission. It's not a family dispute....."

"... what are we going to do now?

"Well… the ultimate goal is to uncover the truth, but there are a few things we need to do to do.

"What do I have to do?

"If some of the nobles were behind this, they would simply uncover the facts and be ruined.

"It's the same in any world..."

"No, it's nothing. Keep going.

"As the main premise is to find out the truth about the incident, it is necessary to make arrangements that can then be communicated directly to the Demon King.

To do that, we need to talk to some chief. Even now, I believe in our Amazones, and when I become a species that will help me.... "

"I'll talk through it.

"" "Huh?!

Everyone reached out to the weapon with a sudden, unfamiliar voice.

"Oh, are you... a hollow?!

A man wearing a robe, a werewolf, stands under the sky as it begins to whiten.

Longitudinal cut marks through closed right eye. It's a bigger body than any other werewolf man. A straight sword with a wide width on the waist.

From the name that Lilina shouted out, it seems that there is a man in front of her that she does not want to see most.

"Nh!!

As soon as he tried to pull the sword out of his hips, Hollow hurried with his hands out in front of him.

"Wait, wait! Don't hurry!"

……

"I'm not trying to hurt anyone else. I don't want to... Amazones is still so bloodthirsty.

"What are you doing here...?

"Today... no, it's already yesterday. You came to the Mansion, didn't you?

"I was paid in advance.

"I apologize for that, but there were a lot of things going on here.

"Things...?

"Can I just check one thing before I talk about it?

"What?

"Lilina, did you kill Gurba?

"No, I swear I didn't do that.

"... I knew it.

"I believe in Lilina's words and her eyes.

"Er...? I'm sorry... I don't know what's going on..."

"I didn't suspect Lilina from the beginning. I am.

"Huh? But... I heard Hollow was going to find me and kill me.

"Well, I told you... that's a lie.

…………

"I thought it was strange in the first place. I knew he wasn't the kind of guy who'd make this happen, and I knew from the time I checked out Gulba's body that she wasn't the one who did it. If you shake the sword, the wound won't be so dirty. Even though it's been a while since my legs disappeared, I know the sword of the limb hunter, Lina.

Hollow puts his hand in his right eye. Apparently, the Hollow wound was caused by Lilina.

"Besides, except for the Demon King, everything is too messy for the only person who can control the Yanashiri of that potato. If it was really Lilina's fault, I'd be gone by now.

I think you're talking about something really scary...

"Then why are you in such a situation that you despise Lilina?

"To find the real killer.

"That's right... the act of pretending to be deceived by the real killer, to make sure that you don't get suspicious even if you put in all sorts of inquiries.

"Exactly. If you were sniffing around about the case, you wouldn't even be able to move me.

"... everyone. He's not lying.

In Lilina's words, everybody let go of their weapons.

"Phew... thank goodness you didn't come here suddenly.

"What is that? As I always say, we are a combatant and not a killer.

"I know. That's why I'm here alone.

Looking at the two pairs, one can see that they were really close.

"I'm glad we suddenly have someone we can trust in the demonic world, but do you know anything about it?

"Of course. I don't know what you're doing, but you're doing such a dangerous thing.

As far as I can tell, some of the aristocrats definitely did it first.

"Do they have a grudge against Amazonas?

"... that's right... there are a lot of things I don't understand..."

"To explain in turn, the first thing I suspected were the Blackwings who had resented Amazonas before. That's what they're going to do, and that's how it works, right?

So, I checked, and I found some signs of involvement in the crime.

"I'm not sure anymore.

"I'm sure some Blackwing tribes are involved, but I also found traces of other Blackwing tribes.

"Is it a succubus?

"You're as sharp as ever. Exactly.

"So it's good to pull both, right?

"That's true..."

"What?

"Thank you for hooking me up.

"It's so silly. What is it?"

"Have you seen what happens around you since the incident? Almost without a doubt, we think Amazonians are the killers. Sucubus is a species that specializes in dark magic involving spirits, but it is not powerful enough to determine behavior. It's enough to make me feel a little bit better.

"... it's weird to be told.

"My guess is... it could be a bigger problem than I thought.
