60 Episode 47: Two Congressional Talks

Dragon Tan, the city of Von Caven.

Within the city, there is an important strategic resource called the Dragon Pulse Hole, and this special city, manipulated by various thoughts and crises... was wrapped in unprecedented tension and chaos.

Meetings between the leaders of Minogoula, Ira-Tact, and Fancafon, Pepe.

The rumours circulated to the people of the city while being careless confuse the people of Von Caven and at the same time cause anxiety, bringing peace to the city, not to mention the capital of the dead.

The inhabitants of the city knew very well that the barbarians attacked the Von Caven and that their elimination was made possible by the help of Minogula, their ally.

Still, the underlying fears and anxieties in their hearts were not wiped out.

That is, "What have we done with Nani? The confusion.

They were spreading not only to the inhabitants of the city, but also to soldiers who were supposed to have joined Minogula in the previous war.

"Hey... you know what? Who to meet next."

Speak to your coworker as if a werewolf beast, whose sight is proud of, were plotting something from a watchtower erected along the outer wall of the city.

And the soldiers of the tribe that heard the word answered the question of the beast with their eyebrows stirred.

"The King of Doom, Ira-Tact...?

"Oh, I hear so. Why did you go all the way to this place....."

"That's because Pepe and Tonukapori went over there to say hello. This time, the other side will come to say hello. Also, there was the previous battle. There must be a lot of consultation with the great ones."

The two soldiers will be talking about the forthcoming bicameral talks.

It is already a well-known fact among ear-wearers that Pepe, who is also a cane holder, met directly with the king of Minogula.

The Allies should be welcomed.

Especially when the King on the other side comes here, that is to say, he attaches so much importance and trust to Von Caven, and it is also a simple indication of the strong relationship between the two countries.

It's also clear that Minogula bled herself into the defense of the barbarian race.

... the problem was that the opponent had unimaginable combat power and was an evil force.

"But are you okay? We're not working with the wrong guys, are we?

"No, that's...."

The man of the Werewolf finally answered the question.

Because I didn't have any evidence to say no. Information about the state of Minogoula is also kept confidential as a top priority in Von Caven.

Sometimes I had an alliance in the first place, and it's hard to get information like a soldier with no job title.

However, the fact that you're a terrible opponent only comes into your ears with obsession.

"Von Caven and Minogula are allies. I want to think it's okay..."

"I really want to think it's okay."

Those who suddenly break into words similar to such desires appear.

It belongs to a young woman who resonates with Rin. They lean their necks against the voice that they remember hearing somewhere, and then salute as they look back in haste.

"Ah, Anterise Mayor!

"Well, why are you here?

It was a beautiful elf woman who showed up.

"Sabo... it's not a patrol, it's a patrol. I wanted to see how everyone was doing."

Anterise-Antique.

The slender body, a little too full of breasts, and above all the characteristic long ears and blonde woman laughed slightly tired as she waved her hand and told her to stop saluting.

The Mayor of Antherise is a woman with a rare background from the Conservative El-Nar Spirit Contract Federation who has come to Von Caven.

Of course, rarity is not only of origin, but also has an unrivalled ability, so it is also a gem that he has become the city mayor of Dragon Tan sometime.

Unexpectedly, they struggled with the appearance of such a misplaced antellise.

The inhuman beauty characteristic of the Elves, and the gaze emitted from their two eyes, slightly penetrate the two watchmen.

The two of them blushed their faces inadvertently under the gaze of Antherise, who in a sense is also a tall flower and seldom speaks.

However, I recall the fact that I was engaged in an unnecessary chat after looking back on my assignment earlier, and I corrected my residence unexpectedly.

It has not been that long since the advance of the barbarians.

No matter how much Minogula's cooperation and defense efforts minimized the damage, I remember it was never a good thing to do.

"No, no... I'm sorry, Mayor."

"I was out of my mind... as many punishments as I wanted"

"It's okay, it's okay. Well, I've been working lately, and I know how you feel. I have a strong feeling lately that I miss peaceful days too... that? How long has it been since I became mayor?

A city mayor who shrugs his shoulders.

Apparently, the two people who decided that they would miss it looked at Polypoly and the back of their head, deceiving themselves about her visit.

"Haha, hey, the mayor won't be able to lift his head. Even now, they're still patrolling to tighten our minds."

Citizens are now displaced in the cities of Von Caven.

That was due to the fact that the Dragon Tang's defenses were hardly helpful in the previous war and the lack of support from my country.

Citizens want peace. It is a natural emotion as a person, not something that can be controlled by reason.

If something like this happens again. If the Allies hadn't joined us this time.

If they think so, they will not be blamed for leaving the land on their own.

The guards knew the same thing.

Their morale is not honestly high, and the determination to protect the people of the country that was certainly there in the past is shaking from the backbone.

While listening to Antherise's mood like this, a line of luggage loaded with furniture headed for the gate on the main street under sight.

I don't know where they're headed, but at least I'm sure this city has been limited.

If you keep watching such sights every day, your morale will be at a minimum.

I was worried about the deterioration of security and wondered if the mayor would go out of his way to monitor and encourage it.

But behind their thoughts, Antherise laughed a little and said, "Yes, but it's actually a little different."

"I can see the city from here. For now, it might be worth watching. Look, you want to remember the city you cut yourself into? I don't know what's going to happen."

It was too noisy and too unrealistic a future.

The person appeared to have said it lightly with a joking attitude, but neither of them missed the slight attraction of the expression.

What does it mean? At least they don't have enough information to guess. However, it was clear from watching Antherise's attitude that there were some circumstances.

The two men look at each other with unspeakable expressions.

I can't imagine what this city will do.

If Minogula hadn't helped, the Beast Guard would have returned the fearful word to the city mayor, forgetting that the paranoid story had become a reality a long time ago.

"Eh, don't say anything unfortunate, Mayor..."

"That's right. I have a bad taste in threatening you like that. Hahaha"

"Speaking of which, aren't you running away?

Against the edge of the sentry pointing toward the streets, Antherise asked another question.

While there has been an even greater exodus of citizens, there has also been a small exodus of soldiers.

There were various reasons for this, such as escorting people who cut out dragon tongues and escaping citizens, but now they have managed to assign personnel to the city's guards.

Of course, there is no time off, and working hours continue to deteriorate.

Both men honestly haven't had a decent night's sleep in the last few days, and it's been a long time since I got home.

There were a lot of things to do besides watchdog work, and the chat earlier was just a brief break in the middle of hard work.

It would be easier to escape. At the very least, there is a psychological escape route available to escort the displaced citizens.

But they answered Antherise's question a little loudly.

"Haha, I won't run away."

"Somehow we like this city too."

They have been growing up in this city since they were little.

I received a lot of things from the city, and I enjoyed various joys and sorrows in the city.

Apart from the other citizens' thoughts, they were going to hang out with the city until the end.

Thanks to people like them, the Dragon Tan is still standing still without a fatal collapse.

"Really? Can I ask you a favor?

Antherise smiled a little happily at the words, and now she has a serious expression that she has never seen before.

Then they asked for a favor that they had not anticipated.

"... I want you to have a strong heart when you see the King of Minogula at the next meeting. And no matter what happens, never show upset attitude. This is not about our position or the country. To be honest, there's something about it, but you said you liked the city for yourselves."

Gokri... and the soldiers took a breath.

After all, she would like to say that depending on what they do, it can be very unpleasant to harm the mood of King Minogula.

Soldiers certainly have cheap lives.

Especially considering the situation in Von Caven, there is no reason why Von Caven and Dragon Tan should consider the rudeness caused by one soldier.

If I cut my neck properly, it will settle round. That is diplomacy.

But I wonder if it is so dangerous and unexpected, or so horrible.

For the first time, the two soldiers felt chilly anxiety as if they were coming out of the depths of their bellies.

"You heard from Tonukapoli-sama. The king of this kingdom is two or three steps away from the logic of the world. That was an anomaly."

It was Tonukapoli and Pepe, who met in the city of Minogoula, who actually met Ila-Tact, the King of Doom, a people of Von Caven.

Pepe has a different sensitivity from ordinary people, so his testimony is not very reliable, but in Tonukapoli, the word has great credibility and reliability.

The strength of their von Kaven wand is well known among their people.

They deal with various magic and spells, such as communicating with natural spirits, sometimes treated as a kind of monstrous legendary existence while respecting them from their strengths and achievements.

Does it represent an anomaly with a person whose existence can be taken from a soldier as if it were on a cloud?

A sense of crisis crawled over the two people who were thinking like other HR.

Because I finally understood that the discussion between the great people was expensive, but it was never the case.

"Is that so bad? It's not like you're exaggerating too much with your staff...."

"Have you ever seen Atou?

Without answering the trusting question yes or no, Antherise threw the question on the contrary.

That alone made the men understand what the mayor in front of them was trying to say.

― ― A girl named Atou, who helped defend the Dragon Tan, is not a guesswork.

The soldiers saw her fighting.

It was far away from the city and was visible from the watchtower, but the battle was vivid.

Glittering snow and ice. Something like a tentacle that swings endlessly vertically and horizontally.

The screams of the Terminator and the bodies of the barbarians, who were thrown into the sky from far away and easy to understand. A collision sound similar to a roar.

... it was too intense.

Initially, they received explanations from their bosses that Atou was an octopus, but now it doesn't seem like a fake that makes any sense.

Her life cannot be such a hundred beings.

A girl named Atu was never something they could deduce.

Ira-Tact is the lord and king of such a girl.

There was nothing normal about being able to take care of that bug.

"I understand what the city mayor is trying to say. Well... I'm not sure, but I have a strong mind to do absolutely nothing extra on the day."

"Good luck. Well, I might be a little poker."

At the end of the day, the mayor looks back at the city in time.

That's the end of the story. But the werewolf man called out to Antherise, worried about something.

"Speaking of which, I wonder if city mayors can handle spirituality. What about the spirits?

The Elves have a very high affinity with spirits.

They follow the voice of the Spirit, performing all kinds of magic and divination.

Although it is immaterial, the question aroused curiosity about how spirits with higher sensitivity to magic react to this incident.

"Eh, everybody ran away."

The eyes that answered openly weren't laughing.

Spirits are a kind of energy that is ubiquitous in the world. Its existence is very rare, and in fact, its instincts and intentions specific to life form are very thin.

All the spirits are fleeing. What should I say about this fact?

When you are poor in words, Antherise moves first.

"Of course you won't run away! I love this city! Hey!"

Dragon Tan Mayor Anterise-Antique talks like that with a grip on his shoulders.

While sweating cold at the bright smile of not letting them escape, the soldiers trembled in their hearts that they might have made a mistake.

………

……

…

I feel like I spent so much time celebrating the day as I was in a hurry.

So how soon will that day come when I keep praying never to come?

So the day of the meeting came quickly.
