17 Episode XVII: Clash (3)

Let's talk about a possible future.

The sunset lights the world red and marks the end of the battle.

Winning and losing had already been decided, without miracles happening, and the natural end had come to pass for Saint Rhonias.

"If you hear the words of the holy knight Verdell, who is dying there unnecessarily."

Atu hangs with his tentacles the Saint Knight Rhonias, covered with blade wounds all over his body, giving words to him.

I already have no power to resist him. Thoughtfully hurt by the sword moves of the Holy Knight Verdell, he had broken his battle and resistance from the ground up and lost all temper.

Atu speaks. Speak quietly.

In spite of her responsibility to kill immediately, Atu said she had to.

"If you accept the decision even if you are not satisfied with it. You will return safely to your homeland.

We'll do the reporting as usual - well, the assessment may be somewhat worse, but we can still get home safely through the assignment.

My beloved wife and daughter are the ones who welcome me. The warmth of the warm house and the aroma of the aromatic soup. Embracing the two of you and whispering your dear words, you offer to God your gratitude for successfully completing your mission and your vow to keep this peace.

... Meanwhile, I would have had peace of mind. I am relieved that you have been an out-of-the-box human being, and I will fall asleep hoping that this peace will last forever. "

It was a quietly spoken word, but there was a clear hatred in it.

I wondered why you didn't and why you ran short on your advice.

There was definite anger there.

"I'll tell you about the future you chose."

Rhonias is already dying.

Are you already conscious of the bleeding caused by the laceration, but the mouth leaks with a little breath, and the eyes are slightly open.

It's proof that my soul hasn't vanished yet.

"You will die after this. They suffer unbroken and die without any fruit.

Now that I know the name of your family, the next thing I need to do is kill your family. Marsha, and I will suffer as far as Meena is concerned before I kill her. - Oh, your daughter was still a baby. It's a corner, so let's eat it like a monster.

I don't really like human meat in the first place, but if you still bake it or boil it and flutter with spices, you won't be able to eat it, so don't worry. "

Talking in a taunt, Atu stares at Rhonias' face.

As if to indulge in the anguish, regret and despair that floats in that expression and all of it without exception, her words gradually glow and contain joy.

Atu was enjoying this situation.

"That's not all. Where the Northern and Southern continents connect, there are the quality villages you stayed in when you traveled, right?

There's no point or reason, but as soon as you find them, decide to kill all the residents and burn them down. Oh, just in case someone with the same name as your wife or daughter suffers from remembrance before I kill them. "

Rhonias shook his head small.

The flame of life left to him, the protest and mercy plea that is made by squeezing through all of its last.

"I have been taught by my loved ones that if I can be molested, it's over, so I'll definitely kill you then. So I'll kill you. Kill as many or as many as hundreds or as many as thousands. It's pathetic, and I really don't want to, but I still kill you. - That's your choice."

"No, don't... please, don't"

She deliberately ignored the dead word.

As Rhonias ignored Atu's voice for peace then.

Atu also never listened to Rhonias' wishes.

"You must have been a good man. I prayed to God, devoted myself to my country, and loved my people and more importantly my family. It's splendid, that's why I hate people who believe in justice."

I let go of the curse words tangled in my soul even this, and Atu was finally satisfied.

Maybe you're right to say you're tired of it.

But either way, the life of a man named Saint Rhonias was no different than crushing it here.

"Goodbye, Saint Knight Rhonias. You, gentle and brave, will necessarily go to the kingdom of heaven, surrounded by the love of God. In heaven's privileged seat, please watch your loved ones die miserably, hehe, haha..."

A witch.

As if to hate everything, as if to curse everything.

Rhonias regrets that he made a terrible mistake, and the certainty that his own feelings were undoubtedly discerning this evil, and most importantly...

Made my heart mad at the despair that my beloved people would receive from now on.

"Ahhhhhhhh!

"Ha ha! Ahahahahahahaha!"

And the investigative team exposed to an unexpected disaster by the justice and narrow horizons held by one man… was to leave no one behind and scatter their lives on the southern continent.

Later the silence just lingers.

One person left behind is a hero of disaster.

Suddenly the wind blows and with sobriety strokes up Atu's hair.

She watched the dead saint Verdell's body quietly for a while as if to mourn it.

………

……

…

"Excellent work, Lord Atu... leave the body to us."

A shadow appears from behind.

Atu, who decides that the Lord of that voice was the warrior chief gear who was gazing at the gap in the woods, returns his words without looking back.

"You want to avoid taking time. I'll help you, too, so let's get this over with."

The number of corpses ranges to about fifty.

The battle that took place in this place could be exposed even if all of them were left unattended.

Even the most ground sucked blood would not be processed, but still the danger of the smell of rotting meat standing around and calling the surrounding warcraft and beasts would be avoided.

Concealment was the most important item, and being able to acquire their armaments intact still means a lot to their nation, which is still short of supplies.

It is therefore imperative that the body be disposed of.

Atu creates tentacles and cleverly collects the bodies in one place.

Gear asks Atu as he oversees how the Warriors carry the body to the back of the woods.

"But you've turned out less than good, Lord Atu."

"Yeah, it looks like they were coming to investigate because there's some kind of anomaly in this forest. It is possible that we are being perceived."

"Oh, my God! Well, that's..."

"The Saint Knight, called Verdell, was a good listener, so I thought it would work..."

"As a matter of fact, we are not trying to set up anything with that country. The place is also far away, so I was expecting the best…"

"Ma'am, I guess that means you can't tell what a basic good attribute is."

Initially Atu was going about his dialogue with them, posing as the daughter of a fleeing dark elf.

It is an operation to keep the presence of Minoghura out of sight, an act that does not know the purpose of the opponent but is deceased.

We negotiate as we see how to get out through the conversation, and if you're leaving, good, if you're not leaving, kill them all by prioritizing information secrecy.

That was the operation Tact had in mind.

But if you open the lid, it looks like this.

Maybe there was a slightly better way, but either way, given their purpose, they'd have to let us all kill them.

At least there can be no option to make the existence of Minogula known.

Therefore, this result must have been inevitable.

Gear sends instructions to his men to speed up work while understanding that they are still in a critical situation.

At the same time, I took a chilling peek at Atu and honestly bumped into what I had been wondering about earlier.

"Lord Atu... the words I was saying earlier. Because you actually do?

"What you were saying? Oh! Are you talking about his wife! You don't!

Gear flashed by the word.

While Atu was investigating and negotiating with armed groups, they lurked in the woods behind them and listened quietly to all their interactions.

They never joined the fight because they were strictly instructed never to appear unless the life of Tact, king of Mynogura, posed a danger to Atu.

So I've been watching how things went, but Atu's words were something that took the heart of Gear, who had become evil, and made it out of the cold of my heart.

What is that word a lie......, plus "What joke are you truly taking?" But the attitude of Atu just saying. All I can do is cross the line and flaunt it.

"I was just trying to say it with harassment because I was interested in what look that saint would give me. I'm a pacifist. You can't do such horrible things..."

Gear couldn't help but feel the thin cold on the girl laughing at her karakara.

Although I learned fear when I first encountered it, I felt humane in my interactions so far.

There was a slight slip in particular, and I even thought it was like a real girl, such as how she was occasionally depressed by the king's attention.

Gear strongly recognizes that all of that is his own mistake and that the existence in front of us is still a demon of a different dimension from ourselves.

Most of all, that's why I have no sympathy for the Holy Knights who were killed.

If Atu hadn't killed them, it would have been the Gears Dark Elves who would have been killed the other way around.

The interrogation in the West Kingdom is harsh and is said to have no mercy for evil beings.

I don't even have to think about the actions they do if the existence of Minoghura is exposed, which is a belief in order and justice.

It also amounts to foolishness, such as showing them room to take into account the moment they get a safe life.

Gear has not forgotten the tricks his own tribe has received.

It's about being able to make decisions without having to weigh his beloved companion, someone in a strange place, which to prioritize.

"Well aside from the chatter, let's get this over with. We have a lot to report directly to the King."

"Mm-hmm? Any concerns?

Even though the crisis at the hit has left, Gear also leans his neck towards Atu, who somehow shows how he hurried.

It didn't look like there was a problem taking it up, but apparently things are heading in an unexpected direction where he doesn't know much about it.

"Yeah, we were able to seize some information when we destroyed the enemy. - It's awesome, it's not good."

His will was pouring into Atu when he killed the saint Verdell.

Most of it was priceless as information that I thought was companion, but information about disturbances in Northern states is enough to arouse Atu's interest.

And most importantly, a being called a witch.

Continental disaster expected to be about the same as the Virgin held by the Holy King Qualia and the El-Ner Spirit Covenant Coalition.

Luckily we haven't encountered it yet, but if Atu's prediction is correct, it's a being with the power of a hero class.

Both national forces are still scarce, Minoghura.

The power of the hero, who seems to be the only advantage, also diminishes if the opponent possesses the same size of combat power.

We will have to think about the measures and future policies as soon as possible.

Gear also feels the obsessive situation of Atu's attitude and nods silently.

Her concerns are those of the state and hence constitute a threat to the security of all its citizens.

If you signal with your hands to make the Warriors work even more hastily, you will join in the handling of the body yourself.

The world was about to make a big move.
