Yobidasa Reta Satsuriku-sha Chapter 33 (1/2)
Returning to the capital and also after coe pile of aiting for Pajou without giving her the chance to take a day off
Because it was necessary to reconcile the Third Knight Unit with the other Knight Units, ement department of the royal castle
The Third Knight Unit’s office was next to the royal castle
It was the place where Hifumi had come previously to enjoy teatiht with Hifumi
Currently, besides Sabnak and Midas, Pajou had assembled the unit members who more or less knew about Hifumi
“I think that it is a dangerous gaather 10000 to 20000 soldiers If they assemble such an amount, it will be unknohether that man would be able to stop them” (Midas)
Midas listened to the Iestion After folding his ar over it for a short while, he clearly stated that it would be dangerous
“Although I understand your anxiety, Midas-senpai, I believe it is a good plan Even if thefrom the citizens, they won’t surpass 200 either way No matter hoerful the individual may be, it is pointless with the difference in nu to say that the as established by Vichy to begin with, it can be said that the part of not particularly antagonizing Hifuood” (Sabnak)
Sabnak rebutted Midas’ opinion
Going by as talked about Hifuh the area Hifumi had invaded became unofficially known as “New Territory”, it was decided to call it like that until the current as settled As consequence of fulfilling the inhabitants dream of a full day of holiday, they had now become completely full of spirit
With the pros and cons of the two’s opinions only more opinions rose up, not to ree on one common point either Since the plan had been accepted by I to abide to our duty, it could be said that due to our e have to watch over the state of affairs
“Rather, I guess no s said here in relation to the situation, since the plan has already started it’s now too late anyway” (Sabnak)
“That’s not quite so Besides, we have gathered here to discuss about the work from here on” (Pajou)
“From here on?” (Midas)
Seeing that they understood the general state of affairs, Pajou began to talk about the purpose of this gathering
“Although this a not yet fixed prediction, I think that the stage of the peace talks between Imeria-sama and the Vichy representative will likely become Fokalore or Arosel” (Pajou)
The knight unit’s members mostly understood Pajou’s prediction
By no means would either side travel as far as to be close to the other side’s capital Apart fro about what they will do about the one in the superior situation, it was custom for the peace talks to be held at a place on the winners’ side close to the border
In the current situation, the only difference would be whether it was the new border or the old border Everyone could agree that it could beco on the postwar circumstances
“This tiuards for the peace talks isn’t the First Knight Unit, but us, the Third Knight Unit” (Pajou)
“Us? Not the First or Second?”
“Yes The First Knight Unit feels like challenging Hifumi We don’t want to unnecessarily provoke hi the royal castle which harbors His Highness the prince… so like that will likely put forth as excuse The Second Knight Unit has the duty of defending the capital Since there are also so such conference to incite so, I think the realm would be weakened if they left” (Pajou)
Allunderstood it and were in an uproar over the excitee
Even though they were all proud of protecting the royal capital and castle from the shadows, there were only few chances to openly partake in such a big job Thus it couldn’t be helped that they felt enthusiastic about the chance to display their competency either
But, due to the Pajou’s words following afterwards, everyone’s excitement instantly subsided
“Because royalty will join the conference held by the border, it has been decided that a war potential of several thousands will be taken along, as precaution so to say And, depending on the circuated” (Pajou)
“Na… what kind of circumstances?”
“Of course you are not to tell a word about this to anyone except those gathered in this place Those are the plans of I fallen or a critical condition due to being injured after having successfully attacked Vichy, we are to pretend leading military forces from our side as reinforcements and attack him from the rear” (Pajou)
In the roo into silence, Pajou tasted some black tea to moisten her mouth
“Only thoseis finished, it will be announced that he co driven into a corner” (Pajou)
“D-Don’t say such absurd things There is no way that an amount of several people will be able to kill him” (Midas)
Only Midas had seen his appearance as he siination he couldn’t see hi up to that in front of his eyes
“Of course, if he isn’t in a condition to that degree, since the conference is held for the sake of peace according to the ostensible reason, it will coht to own the territory close to the national border for Hifumi-san But if the chance presents itself to somehow deal with him as intended by Imeria-sama’s plan, I will also support it” (Pajou)
Although having also been helped during crisis, having participated in joint operations for several days and being nobles of the sa hierous
“Such a…” (Sabnak)
“… If that’s Imeria-sama’s wish, then I will obey to it As fordown in the Viscount territory” (Midas)
Sabnak beca of fascination towards Hifumi Whereas Midas chose to indifferently accept matters
“But, hoill you knohat kind of situation he is? We will end up being sensed before we can approach a visible distance, don’t you agree?” (Midas)
“As for that, there is a person I thought of asking for cooperation If it’s her, I don’t expect any proble close to Hifumi-san” (Pajou)
“That is…” (Sabnak)
As if he suddenly understood who that person was, Sabnak looked at Pajou with eyes of disbelief
“Because I a against humanity, don’t look at me with such eyes But, there was no other plan I could think of either” (Pajou)
No one was able to agree or disagree with Pajou in this situation The ht Unit ended
After Hifumi and the troops arrived at the new border close to Rhone, ten days had passed
During that ti only the lodging for the soldiers and the fortress at the newly established border
With the inhabitants annihilated and since the buildings were aled, there were heaps ofAs several dwarves were brought along and with the engineering soldiers, there were plenty of hands available
There was no way that he wouldn’t uards dispatched by the capital with a look of suspicion, Hifues all over
No matter how many houses they dismantled, the dwarves and soldiers continued to produce one thing after the other every day even though they didn’t quite understand the unclear explanations
This daily life came to an end on the eleventh day
Worn-out and sullied Debold ca to his horse
As he was sheltered by the border guard, ihest rank in town, Hifumi
“Ou, you made it back, huh?” (Hifumi)
Washe clapped the shoulders of the soldier who came to report
“If I remember correctly, wasn’t Debold dispatched to prepare the peace talks?”
“Peace? As the central comented country either, it may be possible to advance the peace talks” (Hifumi)
At the tiainst the sun, Hifued to steal a peek at a part of the contents He understood that the contents in this situation could be still judged as lukewarht call them a provocation towards Vichy
“If you thought of that letter being received as uess that person would have their aspirations being destroyed now” (Hifumi)
Accoa, ore a face full of questions, Hifu the soldiers for a quasi-war
The soldier who came to report departed the room at a quick pace
In a building, which was for confiscated to be utilized as office, Debold received medical treatment
Although one ued there was no injury standing out Given that he raised hell over the degree of a trifling scratch, a fakebandages
