Episode XV: The Dark Night's Cavalry

On the night of the third day after Holger was captured, there was a cavalry appearance on the northern forest trail of Count Sola's territory.

In the middle of the twenty-three cavalry there is a small carriage.

On board are two silver-haired daughters, double-headed dolls, visible in the dark at night.

The double-headed doll looked at the view flowing backwards like it was clogged.

"The only thing that bothered me was that I couldn't find out what was going on with silver."

The silver-haired daughters muttered at the same time and saw Irene Neo holding onto his temple.

Again, and Irene Neo sighs.

What I say after I hear the information that Zasha has been captured, the double-headed doll speaks the words ahead from time to time.

And here's what you say.

"I want to abduct Count Sola..."

No, sir.

Irene Neo blocked the wish of the double-headed doll along the way.

He knew a hundred times that he would say no, and the double-headed doll laughed with a shoulder over his shoulder.

I'm trying to make fun of Ireneo in my spare time on the journey.

Irene Neo looks at her boss in search of salvation, but her boss, who doesn't fit the double-headed doll and sleigh, decides to know her face.

Ireneo makes his gaze wander wondering if he can change the subject.

"... it's dark"

Keep an eye on the branches covering the overhead, and Irene Neo mouths the facts.

"Blatant"

"Simple"

The double-headed doll took the word together and laughed at Irene Neo.

"... the moon should be out, but you can't help it in the woods"

Hearing the sneaky laughter of the double-headed doll, Irene Neo continues the conversation.

I turned my attention to the dark woods as I felt the greatness of dark adaptation.

Even though we are surrounded by a cavalry that should be called elite, it uses nerves to run a carriage with a double-headed doll to be escorted.

This is all the more so when it comes to night travel with limited vision.

"I know it's a sneak eye trip, but couldn't we have left a little earlier within?

"You can't do that."

When Ilaneo asked, his boss, who had decided to ignore him until earlier, pinched his mouth.

Wondering about the denial from the person likely to line up his most dissatisfaction, Ireneo speaks out his doubts.

"Holger has been caught, so Count Sola's vigilance is back to normal, too?

"It doesn't matter if you're back. We'll do more covert work than Piercing hasn't pulled an army."

Said, Irene Neo remembers.

Rumors had been circulating that Holger had been captured, but I had not heard that the piercing had pulled the army.

I don't think Sola really thinks he assassinated Chaff, the heir to the piercing line.

"Don't forget. We're heading north to avoid a piercing army. So..."

Drawing Irene Neo's attention, his boss inadvertently narrowed his eyes.

"Double-headed doll, no matter what, we're going straight home. I'm not stopping by."

"Oh, too bad."

Silver-haired daughters are unfortunate with a doll-dyed grin and a voice reading the script.

He snorted uncomfortably and his boss looked at the front.

He's not going to have a fight with a double-headed doll on this dark night lane.

Irene Neo exhaled relief, always allowed to act as an arbiter for broken bones.

The double-headed doll begins to wrap up the seemingly clogged air again.

Will you finish this journey soon, Ireneo will calculate the number of days of the journey.

That's when the double-headed doll noticed something and raised a bright voice.

"The road is clear."

Say goodbye to the wagon shake.

The road was flat, as the decompromising road to earlier was a lie.

Ireneo frowns and throws his side at his boss.

"... do you want to stop? Or will you deviate as soon as you find our way"

My boss stared silently at the dark ground.

When I look up, I look around carefully.

"Are pedestrians using this neighborhood?

"It is the road to the territory of the Marquis of Beltze, but the goods should be transported mainly by ship. Because incense wood and other things weigh heavily, and seafood has fast feet."

Illeneo explains with remembrance and thinks with his boss.

In the first place, it's a strange story that it's been maintained from the middle of the road.

"I don't know if it's a trap. But there's something."

The boss groans and orders his men's cavalry to widen the intervals.

"If it was a precaution when the Holger bastard ran over here, it wouldn't be working anymore. I'm sure you've never been too careful."

The boss looked sharply forward, mouthing his thoughts.

Irene Neo looks back at the double-headed doll in the carriage.

"Don't peek into the window. If we get raided, we'll accelerate the carriage."

Though I don't think I'd take a back at half the opponent, Irene Neo overlays caution.

It is a small carriage, but for the double-headed dolls it would be armor to protect themselves from arrows and throwing weapons.

The double-headed doll honestly closes the curtain attached to the window.

Ireneo confirmed his grip on the reins and again prepared for the raid.

"If you go out to the river, you will be transferred to a large ship of the Federation of Chambers of Commerce that has finished carrying silver"

"You've got a story to tell."

Well done, Ireneo nodded with a hard look to his boss, who rarely praised him.

It was originally to prepare for a smooth exit from Count Sola's territory, but now it was a good decision.

Sola's big ship is watching for access to the sea in the south, so if the double-headed puppets get on the big ship, there's no stopping them until Seki.

The territory of Count Sola can reach the territory of the Marquis of Beltze faster than by land, as transport using the river is developing.

It's not hard to escape if you're attacked right now.

So if I didn't have a big ship available, Irene Neo would be relieved.

"... hey, hey, hey."

My boss stared at the end of the road and groaned, putting his hands on the song knife pattern.

Irene follows her boss's gaze and gazes at the end of the road.

There were seven cavalry figures who could follow the black shadow-covered forest left and right.

You paid for the overhead branches, only where the cavalry is illuminated by the moonlight.

In the moonlight, one of the cavalry ran around the horse's head and flipped out, shying away from the Ireneos.

"Did you go get some company?"

Analyze your boss as he sharpens his fighting spirit.

Ireneo narrowed his eyes to confirm the face of the cavalry floating in the moonlight.

As the distance decreases, the face of the cavalry becomes visible.

It was at the same time that Irene Neo realized who he was and the young man at the head of the cavalry pulled out his bronze sword.

From just one experience, Irene Neo predicts a slightly further future and raises his voice.

"─ Everybody, look down and close your eyes!!

The moment Irene Neo screamed out loud that could break her own ear, the flash flashed in the winter forest.
