Chapter 688

TENKEN 688 Sibylla and her Companion’s Identity

「And there’s still more to come from Fran-oneesama!」

Katley, whose strange switch seemed to have been turned on, speaks further to Sibylla.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

「She also played a major role in the royal capital! Together with her comrades, they exposed the conspiracy of the treacherous Kingdom of Raidos there!」

「T-treacherous?」

「Yes! The worst country that has always been plotting to harm our country with its despicable schemes!」

「T-the worst...」

I don’t know why, but Sibylla’s face tensed from hearing that.

「Did you know that the Kingdom of Raidos built an experimental facility on a floating island and repeatedly conducted terrible human experiments? But I guess the Kingdom of Raidos has been punished by heaven. The floating island has been turned into a dungeon somehow! Fran-oneesama with a fellow adventurer Jean was the one who conquered the floating island dungeon, and freed the miserable spirits!」

「Jean? You mean the Mass Murderer?」

「You know him, don’t you? He’s a great person who has defeated the ruthless and heartless Kingdom of Raidos many times over!」

「This time it’s ruthless and heartless...」

Katley seemed to hate the Kingdom of Raidos quite much, isn’t she? There’s a lot of bad words coming out of her mouth. Well, someone from the Kingdom of Kranzel would probably feel more or less the same way, but I think she has gone a little too far.

I wonder did Aurel, his son, and daughter-in-law educate her that way?

「Just how many people do you think have suffered because of that country...?」

「T-There are...?」

「Yes! My uncle also lost his life in the incident caused by the conspiracy of the Kingdom of Raidos. He used to play with me when I was little... How unforgivable!」

「...Y-you’re right」

「It really is the worst country in the world」

So, one of her relatives died because of the incident caused by the conspiracy of the Kingdom of Raidos, huh? If that’s the case, it’s understandable that she holds a grudge towards them.

Sibylla raised a small, theatrical laugh, when she heard the Kingdom of Raidos’ deeds.

There is no such thing as a spy who has such a strong presence and is so conspicuous. It would be more understandable if it were said that she was just a tomboy young lady from the Kingdom of Raidos.

Well then, what do we do now?

I feel that we might be able to find out who they are if we were to question them now. But the other side is someone from an enemy country that goes on undercover.

If they thought their true identity had been discovered, they would certainly try to silence us. It would certainly be difficult to deal with both Sibylla and Biscot while protecting Katley.

Besides, even if we were able to get away from this now, there was a possibility that Katley would be targeted in the future. So, the best thing to do would be to pretend not to notice and let this slide for now.

「...S-Sis. Any more of this and we’re screwed!」

「Y-you’re right. Let’s just get out of here」

The other side seemed to be ready to leave as well, so let’s just let the water pass the flood gate already.

「...Katley, let’s go」

「Eh? Are you sure?」

「Anymore of this is a waste of time」

「If oneesama says so, okay...」

I instructed Fran to give them a way. Then, taking advantage of this, the two ran away from Fran and Katley.

「N-now, if you’d excuse us!」

「Nn」

「F-farewell!」

『Urushi, follow them』

(Woof!)

『Aside from the two, they might have other allies with better detection abilities. So, let’s be careful』

It’s hard to believe that those two alone managed to travel this far without their identities being discovered, so I’m sure they have more allies here.

『We’re counting on you』

(Woof!)

Now, all we have to do is report to Diaz. Well, it might get a little awkward, but he’s not the kind of guy who brings his personal feelings into his work――or was it?

W-well, if he won’t listen, we’ll just turn to Aurel and Elsa.
