473 5. Persuasion

"Come on, we don't have the rules."

In the castle fortress of Falve, a dining room and conference room, Valtrude put his arms together and said with a seemingly difficult look.

Doing so on the short side of a rectangular desk, the natural beauty goes hand in hand and looks strange and thoughtful.

"After all, was that Wado Renka? Is he evil or not?"

"Absolutely. If Val sees it as evil, he tries to kill it right away."

Larsia, who sits in the left row looking from Valtrude, puts tea in with a loose voice and expression.

But to Valtrude, it doesn't make sense.

"You can't possibly do that. Let's start with sincere discussion and persuasion."

"Oh, Val, but do something decent"

"If it doesn't work, I'll have to kill it."

"After all, it was Valtrude!

Larsia gives a convincing voice to the throw.

It did not take the form of words, but the other members had one thought.

"I wonder if that persuasion could also be a physical persuasion."

"No, I don't think that's it. Exactly...... Probably... probably..."

Not much of an acorn, but in a way, Yut denies the best point, along with a bitter laugh. While appreciating that the harsh atmosphere after telling the story I heard from Swion has lightened thanks to my beloved wife and fiancée.

Nevertheless, I want you to forgive me for having a bad tooth cut. Whatever, there is a limit.

"Shall I summarize the main points?"

He looks around with dark brown eyes and Arcia returns to the story.

It was Yut who gave the first explanation, but I guess there was a stray in him. Because of that, I lost sight of the story.

This is the occasion where Alcia, who was present at the meeting with Swion, should be objectively informed.

"A man named Wado Renka, with treasures (artifacts) of the same lineage as the jewels of the land owned by Yutkun, is sweeping Li Kutua. This is the premise, the beginning."

That won't be a problem, but Wado Renka's method is one that doesn't care about people's will, and furthermore, even cooperates with that Ray Cruz.

Do we overlook this? Or do you intervene?

Summarizing the issues brings the story back to perspective at the same time.

"... can I say my honest thoughts?

Raised his hand small, and Acorn asked for permission.

Valtrude and Yut nod at the same time, and Acorn opens his mouth with a snack.

"Blah, I feel like a fire across the shore. Are you sure you need to get involved? Well, I don't even know the details of this world..."

"I think so, too. Instead, don't feel the intention behind wanting to throw Yut into the fire"

Larsia affirmed the impression that Acorn, sitting next to Yut, had spoken.

"I'm telling you that the Dragon Man (Draconut) came to us, but even without it, he didn't come all the way here with information.

"There's no hanging up if you doubt it, but the guess is, don't assume there's Ray Cruz over there"

There would be other ways, but it would be more natural to assume that Ray Cruz knew Yut existed.

A black-clothed swordsman that he was going to take over the Verga Empire and attack it into heaven.

Why is that avenger in the Far East?

"Ray Cruz avenges. No, Though I Don't Think I'll Give Up Sword Princess Suigil"

"So it's a fake over there?

A meadow species (Magner) who, while acknowledging the correctness of Arsian language, argues that it may be strange.

I didn't mean to cover my wife, but Yut was reflexively uttering a re-objection.

"You might want to secure your power in Li Kutua and attack the Verga Empire."

"I wonder if that short-circuited, short-sighted black guy would do that?

Larsia's Ray Cruz review is unforgiving.

Yut smiles unintentionally, but he couldn't fail to acknowledge the correctness of one side.

Exile watches for such exchanges with few words.

Not that I'm not going to participate in the discussion......

I'm just entrusting Valtrude and Yut with the policy.

If you're not going, you don't have to do anything.

If you want to go, you will die. I've already made up my mind.

He was an unwavering rock giant (Jarloot).

That's the same for Jonah.

On the contrary...

"Because killing doesn't change"

- And I didn't attend the meeting, and I kept the stalls open. Apparently, he can't be going to leave the soup to someone else.

Maybe the Albino girl has met her vocation unexpectedly.

"If Larsia's" short-circuited and short-sighted "isn't the same, maybe there's something in Li Kutua that you can shortcut."

"It is...... No, if it's just a possibility, you can say anything.

"Well, because it's just an idea. Maybe it's a reason to keep it down, or in the first place, there's no reason."

That said, Yut shook his head depressingly.

My stretched forehead dances in front of me.

Ray Cruz is trying to bring in Yut.

On this assumption, we do not, in any case, get the guidelines, as Valtrude put it. I can't decide my attitude. It ends in an ambiguous story.

"One. Keep an eye on the change"

As if to blow away his worries, Yut counts his fingerfolds and lists his options.

"Two. In the meantime, I'll just go" Move Moments (Teleport) "to Li Kutua to see what's going on"

"It's not too much."

"Three, then. We'll all intervene."

"What else?

"Four. Pressing on Jii of Vainamarinen"

"I wonder..."

The last bomb released by Yut was sufficient to change the complexion not only of Alusia, but of all the participants.

"It's an image, but something's going to be terrible, isn't it? It's just my image."

"Working with Ray Cruz to conquer Li Kutua with you?

"I can't tell you how impossible it is, but it's the trouble."

Acorn's mental state was something that Yut also shared.

"For example, suppose Larsia had some kind of situation and ran down the evil road."

"Why me?

"No, there's no particular point or reason,"

"There, I wanted something to happen!

"Well, anyway, let's just say Larsia falls for evil and around Cress is trying to discuss Larsia"

Impossible, but maybe... and unexpected analogy.

But really, there's no reason to want it to be a unique noun.

"I don't know what I'd do in that situation if Cress asked me to help."

Will you actively intervene with your fallen best friend, at least in your own hands?

Or will it uphold neutrality?

Or…….

"Maybe I'll be one of Larsia's"

"You know, yut...... Something sounds like a good story, but we were originally buddies...? Is that it? Maybe I'm the only one who thought that?

…………

"At least don't look away!

Still, Yut stays out of sight - rather than looking at Valtrude - and goes on.

"In the meantime, I want to keep it a secret from Mr. Jii and King Eldrick"

"... right. We should move proactively."

Valtrude also seemed not dissatisfied with that policy, he nodded heavily.

It would be possible to ask for cooperation, but at the same time, I cannot read the actions of these two people. If you do poorly, things could go in a hell of a direction. No, it's dangerous.

Then it would be much better to hit things with just the people you trust. Shortcuts are not always safe.

You've come to a conclusion.

Look around the left and right, says Valtrude.

It was as majestic as the goddess who gave the judgment, and had the power to make it obey without having to hear the contents.

"We'll all have to go out there and see what we can do."

Never overlook, etc.

Respond with all your strength without losing it.

"During the festival, but I can't say that either. Tomorrow... but I'm going to fly to Li Kutua the day after tomorrow"

"I'll leave the treasure hunt to the people below."

"This one too, no problem"

Larsia and Exile lightly agree on footwork, just as they did in the Adventurers' days.

To those two, Acorn said in a mild tone, pointing a slightly envious stare at each other.

"Well, me and Val are leaving a message. What will Alcia do?

"Hmm? Leave a message?

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

What stopped it would have been either air or time to fulfill?

Valtrude and Acorn face to face, both "impossible".

Other members, even the Exile, could not be said to have been taken aback.

"Val."

Cold voices echo in such indoors.

"You must be leaving a message, right?

Larsia, not directed directly at her, shrunk her body and missed her gaze at the words that even conceived Arsia's anger.

Had Jonah been there, she might have escaped from this scene with a "teleportation".

"Moment Travel could be bad for kids, right? But it takes time, but if you fly away, it's fine"

"It's a problem before that!

The beloved daughter of the goddess of death and sorcery.

Alcia, so called, shook her hair and slapped her fist against the table.

"Ugh... Alcia's pretty......"

On that sword screen, Larsia, who was not directed directly at her anger, shrinks her body and unconsciously turns her gaze toward the exit.

Had Jonah been there, she would have escaped from the scene in Teleportation.

But there's also a reason Valtrude can't pull back.

"Maybe Yut is being targeted. What are you gonna do if I don't accompany you?"

"... makes sense"

"Hey!

When he slammed an inexplicable denial on Larsia, who agreed with Bozuri, Yut stood up on the spot. It is no longer a case of sitting down for meetings.

For some reason Valtrude is in the right wind direction, but I couldn't admit it.

"Val, I'm glad to feel. Glad to hear it, but now, give your body priority. No, it's top priority."

"Neither am I going to leave you alone"

Valtrude also takes his seat, as if to take it and stand.

And I said, lovingly, stroking my stomach as supple as mercy.

"But things aren't the same as when I sent you off to Earth the other day. I could not foresee danger then, but this time it will be obvious that it will be a dispute"

"Well, yes..."

Never, I'm not saying it's because I want to get busted.

I can see that, and even as a yut, I can't say it strongly anymore.

"I'm fine. Because even without Val, I'll figure it out."

"Lack of specificity"

"Gu."

I guess I didn't think the word "specific" would come out of Valtrude, etc.

Unexpectedly, Yut gets stuck in words.

"Really, it's okay. Anyway, this time, it's not like Verga's here."

"... is that so too"

Do you agree with that?

Unfortunately, the only person who thought so was Yut.

In view of past achievements, the other members were, in a way, convinced.

"But if you're leaving me, you're taking Alcia with you."

"Val......"

"Arcia needs the Yuts more than I will stay over here. It's natural."

"... Instead, you need to rest until I get back, okay?

"Yes, of course."

Yut made a firm decision.

Because of my beloved wife and a child I haven't seen yet, I must return as soon as possible.

Resolving it is not a goal more than deciding to embark on it. It's a premise.
