Vol 3 Chapter 1 (1/2)

Chapter 1

Perhaps such a picture even in hell could not be found

Around not grow a single blade of grass On the ground lay only rocks and sand, but, despite the sharp elevation changes after each turned out that this relief lasted continue without any changes Everywhere rising white haze cover half of the landscape, and the air was thick san to fail, and the sense of smell

The colors were dull and aled

We can say, with a nor is tied

Moreover, this is the place, though, and “empty”, different from the cold and lifeless wasteland … the s to anyone who dared to come here This land has been poisoned

And yet … in the heart …

– Eh …

Toru ACURE relaxed

He rested He had no idea that his body may be so obmyaknut

Such chances were given to him rarely

Thor was young His appearance drew the title of “young h someone could call him “boy”His black eyes and hair can not be called remarkable, facial features a bit more attractive than most, but no more It is unlikely that his beauty turned out to write a ballad … The only real feature of it was printed on the face of universal gravity, rather characteristic for the old than for the young

Growing up is not deter for years, and lived experience

That is why poor people look older than their years Since the Torah has grown in an environ to the society, and looked older than his real age

– Bliss …

Thor leaned against the rock and looked up at the sky

He trained when standing He trained when sitting He trained even during sleep

Such was his life, as he grew up to the age of reason You could even say that he trained 24 hours a day, without realizing it himself Every ardless, hisconsciously or unconsciously, any action imprinted in the subconscious as a workout

Pisces swim naturally Birds naturally fly

So here

Because of this he was able to restore the for period of idleness

But … as retribution for their unconscious training, and now he had deliberately ordered the body to “rest”He had only to forget about your body, and it has started to train endlessly accuue

It could even lead to the fact that fatigue would have reached a level where he could and did faint

He had heard that the true experts and ive half of his body to rest, continuing to te” … but in the 20 years the Torah was still a novice, incapable of such a thing

And that’s why …

– Eh … – he sighed a long, plunging into hot water up to their shoulders

He felt gradually ue”, accumulated in thein the nerves With his eyes closed and he did could iine how his body heat spreads easily, and as the blood flows inside

He was in the hot spring water

Here, the white haze hung so close that virtually closed the review, and the landscape was only a few rocksThey were all black chunks of solidifiedthe eruption of the volcano

This characteristic haze and odor resistant creating underground water and heated by sulfur

Initially, on the ground there was nothing around the Torah, but a bunch of stones, but as close to a river, he decided to try to dig at rando Fortunately, the water proved the most suitable temperature for it to relax

– I think … I have five years not so … – whispered the Torah, looking at the sky, hidden white haze

The fact that near the village ACURE in which he lived, too, was like a place with hot springs There they are in their ti

But after the destruction of the village ACURE hot springs they stopped to visit … Why, because they do not have enough to eat, they had no time even for a bath, so often they bathed in rivers and ponds

It is because the Torah thoroughly enjoyed the first visit to a hot spring for 5 years

– Um …

Of course, the Torah into the water naked

However, this does not mean that he was defenseless His body could at any time to come back from holiday in the state of full combat readiness

– …

Thor squinted and held out his hand

To dig the key is not filled up, they strengthened it by several large stones, laid out around the spring In the largest of these stones Torah folded his things

He walked groping the

Throwing Knife

Usually it was used for, in fact, throwing, but he had a handle that allowed theht and how an ordinary knife Of course, he was far h, coency they can be, and repulse the attack, and try to attack the enemy His favorite stilettos Torah near the water did not leave They were equipped with sophisticated h humidity

– Akari?– He whispered softly, tearing back the stone, turned around and peered into the white mist – No, it does not seem …

At some point, he felt close to someone’s presence

Half-sister Torah, Akari, at this very moment is to handle the collected sulfur

She is versed in the pharmaceutical industry, or rather, in the preparation of unpowder, poison and even s salts And for them the Torah with such e is always painfully felt, and the stock has never pulled a pocket

And that means …

– Is that you, Seagull?

And then, as if he had just been waiting for this, and, white steairl

Her body was tiny

She gave the i areneral in the muscles, it was uneventful Not that she seee on his chest looked so modest that left the impression has not yet had time to form Perhaps excite her body would start only after several years

The corners of her eyes were sharp, giving the cat’s eye view, but they did not see kitten

Her features rese can be added, and fro can be taken away, so as not to upset the balance Moreover, it is difficult to ie At this very ht seem as if she was born with that sairl

Long silver hair and athened this impression Usually, she wore a black-and-white clothes, like a , and the dazzling iins reflected in the eyes of the Torah

Chaika Trabant

Most often it is, the Torah e more precisely, the saboteur Torah considered her his ull under hie, which is why their relationshi+p shi+fted fro category

– So … – Tohru began, and then suddenly?!

No matter how close their relations were not, they are not exactly of the type in which you can, without warning, to appear on each other’s eyes in the nude

Torah Scroll down sharply on the ground, turning his back to the approaching girl

The underwear Torah it has already seen (because it is in this respect quite indifferent) … but in a completely nude yet

– Thor …

He heard a splash of hot water

Seagull entered into the same water in which it was located

Well-developed sense of the Torah played with a cruel joke He felt fine, she approaches him … and stopped very close They were so close we could touch each other’s hands Turn around it – and he had nowhere to look away

– What are you thinking ?!

– …What? – She asked in surprise

Her voice did not feel a drop of obscenity – she said the word, like a child who had just learned it

– Well, you know … – the Torah did not knohat else to say

Seagull was a princess of the north, the Empire Gas

We of the royal family and nobility only a system of values different from the usual The powers that be constantly feared attack uard – and in the bathroo the retreat with a spouse or lover Thor had heard that souards and commandos

It is unlikely that a person would be e

It is possible that not only the gull fros, but do not even feel shame in front of him

“But even so, I somehow can not stare at you!”

Since the Torah is still a young man, then, in spite of all its principles, the body could not help to respond to the nakedness of the young girl

– Thor …

But she did not think any of his agony, or at all ers touched the back of the Torah

And what’s more …

– Thor …

He felt her breath on his neck

Generally, Seagull barely got out before his shoulders … but the water in the Torah on his knees, and head Seagull is even higher Their relative groas such that if the Torah turned before his eyes were neck and chest Gulls

– Thor … – whisper sounded almost close

And judging by it, Seagull slightly bent

It was as if she was going to kiss the Torah in the neck …

– … – The Torah is so quietly muttered

And in the next moment …

Clang

At that veryknife he made a sharp sound

Seagulls teeth literally dug into it

– …

– …

Between the an aard silence

I do not ull

Finally, seagull frowned and, without taking arms Torah from his mouth, he said:

– What are you doing?

– It’s ull look – What was it, Frederick?

– Sudden Attack, and what? – I that has taken its shape

Somehow the voice of the creature reh his teeth and continued to chew on the blade Possibly, the mechanism different from the human speech

– Why do you look like?

– In terms of? I just naked

– So I ask – why are you naked?

– Because ash ourselves? You’re naked and himself because of this?

In her voice as if through a “what’s wrong with you?”

– No, but it is certainly true, but! – Toru cried in despair – But I’ about why you naked attack me while I wash!+

– I told you, it’s a surprise attack – there is an answer on behalf of Frederick, releasing finally throwing knife Torah, and stepped back a little bit

Every tiins to speak, a little, but still very real teeth appeared between the char lips Do not substitute uspey Toru the knife, they would have dug deep into his neck

– I thought you were in the water at least you come unarmed You do realize that there is no adequate person will not ith the weapon, the Torah?

– Look who’s talking … And anyway, someone who really, and you’d better keep quiet about the “adequacy” !!! – Exclaimed the Torah

It is hard to think of anythingthan to hear the doubt in his own adequacy of this girl

After all, Frederick did not even people

It was Dragoon and belonged to Fail These creatures possessed e your body freely, for example, to increase its cover and aroons only on such fighting forht reduce his body

For exairl

– What a pity … I thought I could tear your throat

Frederick said the words, it is not straining as if she was not allowed to play some entirely innocent prank

After a single case of the dragoons began hunting for the Torah

She did not hide the fact that he was going to kill hi on someone else’s orders, but si to do

So … despite the fact that it was kind of like the Torah in the unit, it could disappear at any time for an indefinite period and moodiness are not inferior to the cat Apparently, she was trying to, not as a hu in the wrong direction … In any case, the Torah was already tired to irl-Feil

– Yet, the Torah – Frederick asked, still in the guise of The Seagull – When did you realize it?

– … Fro, – he replied – However, finally I found only at the last moment

– But I really tried to repeat the face and body of Seagulls

– … Really, you’re very like her

Even now, as he stood in front of her, it can be easily ull

Of course, its appearance is not repeated body Gulls in the most minute detail, but as she approached from the back, in the Torah have not been able to see them Even her speech was intermittent, and distinct difference in tone between her and this Chaika was not felt

– Whereas? The aura, or what?

– Ah … – Torah scratched his cheek – Chest

– Eh? Chest?

– At Seagulls chest smaller

– Eh? True? And I thought, well, I re

– Her clothes packed If you have seen it only in ordinary clothes, you do not know this

– Thor?

– What?

– So, you saw naked Seagull? I knew it

– I’ve seen her only in his underwear! And that means “just knew” ?!

Although the Torah and understand that to argue with this monster is useless … he could not stop to answer it It seeirl

– So in fact even Akari said that you are the greatest tyrant in the whole Ferbiste

– Enough to take her words seriously!

– I see … – though the Torah and the response was like a cry, he did not cause Frederica almost no reaction- So, if I just reduced the breast, it would be able to deceive the Torah

With these words of Frederick put his hands to his chest and several tiht and spread thee deformed pleasant to the eyes of the Torah …

– Enough already! – He said, again turning back to her

And here…

– …A?

– A…

He locked eyes with seagulls

Her violet eyes blinked and continued to look at him

Momentarily taken aback Torah

He turned away from Frederica, not to see the body Gulls, but instead it turned out to be right in front of hi, but well-kept silver hair could belong only to her A small chest under the collarbone confirmed that she is the real …

– …

Toru reflexively turned and, of course, again saw Frederick in the for where else to look, he turned his eyes to the sky

– What is it, the Torah? Blood froo?

– No!

– M ?

Ca with it the size of a black coffin itself, in spite of the water It looks like she really could not calht This is also one of the points where the two differed Gulls

– Mr Mr Mr … – tried to say soull

However, would still – she had only met with his own double

Moreover, its tas so close to the Torah, as if they were going to at any tiround for

– No, Seagull, listen … – tried to soent never occurred

Seagull in response hesitantly took a step back, then pointed a tre hand on his head in bewilderment slopes Frederick

– Chest ?! Increased ?!

– This is exactly the first thing you have to say ?! – Exclaiain to the shy Torah

“Why so eneral, why they are so careless about this saying? Maybe it’s ht, I’h this is a former princess and feil … I also have to understand that none of them have no adequate conception of shame “

– Big breasts Key Be sure to teach, – said Gull, approaching Frederick

– You see, it is very easy to arrange with ic

– Are you too gone mad ?!

dragoons transfornized the parts of their bodiesMoreover, Toru heard of seagulls that this oons, and people could not use it

– Is your ned a contract with you, Frederick?

She could enter into a kind of “temporary contracts” by the bite, which allowed her to heal the wounds of others … but for this transformation, which has been concerned about security, “teood

– Contract!

– Good Then let’s change hands

– Why are you talking about it with such ease, if you just want to change the food ?!

For the conclusion of the contract of the rider on the need to share with the dragoons Feil hand, foot, or the appropriate amount of flesh

– I’, – said Frederick – Apparently, the Torah, you are one of those who does not understand jokes

– … Is this your jokes too weird !!! – He said in response to the Torah, which has wanted to cry fro

The long war ended

Naturally, the 300 years of wartime impact on people’s views

Entire generations have lived my life in its entirety

It was a simple and intuitive time

And, of course … allwar

“Saboteurs” – one of those who raised this principle in the absolute

Master of all trades when it came to battles, ready to take on the work, which disdain classical knights and swords in the darkness of the people who lived by war and ready to go to any lengths to achieve their goals … This is what they were They are not shy or dirty tricks, in which they were accused, nor baseness, for whom they despised And precisely because they were the people theythe dark, but a necessary work

Murder Incitement Riots The raids And much more

Saboteurs shone when honestvictory in battle

Naturally, demand creates supply

At some point, the saboteurs have ceased to appear by thee”, where they were trained and then sent on a mission It was quite obvious the system allows you to “produce” more effective saboteurs

There was a few schools saboteurs In response to dehters who took part in various battles In the villages, well aware that saboteurs are considered as small coins, and did not oppose this – were frequent cases when natives of the sa parties But saboteurs treated it with indifference They were able to do their job, regardless of which side is … and their employers is not too worried

You could say they have found a balance between supply and demand

But … a long war ended

As soon occur world as saboteurs began to be perceived as a “dishonest dogs”, “cowards” and “scum” and to treat thenificant role was played by the rulers of countries, fearing sabotage skills, because they were able to organize riots and unrest And since many states have resorted to their services, it is perfectly aware of the danger they represented

Whatever it ith the onset of peace saboteurs were left without work

And what’s e their e”

Many coo on the run

These include the Torah ACURE

Although it should be called and have not hatched egg saboteur

After the war ended before he had tinment

All the skills he honed in his life for use on the battlefield, were useless

Today saboteurs likened hos, who threw home

Their life was not worth nothing They were created because they were “necessary” … but now this “need” suddenly disappeared Moreover, they are now training has become too risky

Torah … angry

Why was he born?

What was living all this time?

Everything rong … and because the Torah did not even try to work all day doing nothing

And then he had irl named Chaika Trabant

In the course of a series of events that they have experienced together, Thor learned a few things

What Seagull picking “the remains” of his father, separated into several parts

What her father was the eure of the war itself

With the support of the Governanization, seeks to capture the princess Seagull

What is the status of a legitimate heiress could help her resurrect the E the war

And much more…

Torah … saw in this a chance

The as his liking She liked him at times more of the world where there was no place for hiull and risks her life in order to find the use of their skills and stop, finally, to rot

So the Torah and became a slave Gulls

But…

– The Torah, the Torah …

He felt like sohtly tapped on his back

Gull He knew it, not even turning around

– Further Plan

– Since I have nothing more to do noould like to discuss ill do next – added Frederick

Toru corner of his eye noticed that she no longer portrayed Seagull and again took the forolden hair and red eyes

If we coht coull … but the feel of theull seemed a bit lifeless, a bit like a doll, and Frederick on the contrary – restless, like aniirl, cheerful and playful

By the way, since Frederick free to change his appearance, she was not the “true ie”, but more often it is shown on the eyes detachment of the Torah in this form Apparently, she did not like turoon

– Let’s talk hoash finish, – said Thor, as sitting with his back to the girls

He sat in the pit spring and looked out

Seagull and Frederick also swa

Actually, both of them behaved so calmly and do not care what the Torah may have no reason to so assiduously avert their eyes … But he could hardly if at the sight of theone nose blood would somehow explain, so he stubbornly continued to look the other way

– So, I finish the wash in and out?

– Yes

– And what about you, Thor? You’re not gonna go? So you sit? – Innocently asked him Frederick

– …

Thor did not answer

If he could, he would have long since left

The water in this source was unclear, and he was able to hide from them the lower part of his body with it

– You … – apparently, Frederick realized silence Torah on their own, as decided to continue the conversation- Searching for the reht?

It seeht here

Toru felt behind hiull

– The confirmation

– Why? No, I heard that the reic fuel … but there are also other sources?

– … – Seagull was not found with the answer

“By the way, because we have not told the whole truth about Frederick Seagull?”

Any creature possessing a certain level of intelligence, to accuy in the process of life It can be used to do y only as a “fuse”, and as the consuic fuel

His role was played by the res

It is easiest to ith fossils, namely, with fossils Feil, called dry fuel … but with proper treatment, you can use and not fossilized remains

The rereatest ician of all time and is rumored to have lived three hundred years, were really superb fuel

But … on the other hand, they are not essential to name

You can draw an analogy with the prices … of course, if you want to have soest ge equivalent”, it can equalize a sufficient aold

If they just wanted a ather the remains of Emperor Gaza was no

– Frederick – Torah said, continues obstinately to sit with his back to the girls – Let me first ask … What do you think about the emperor Arthur Gaza?

– I mean, “what”?

– Do you agree with the opinion of all those states that consider it the root of all evil?

– Well, as you say … – Frederica’s voice did not seem nervous

It was as if she responded to a question about his favorite color or dish

– I’et of Dominica Yes, I took part in the assault on the capital of the Empire Gas, but to be honest, I do not feel on this occasion any sense In the end, after Dominic went to the castle without me … so I could not see his face

– Clear …

Tohru sighed briefly

They could continue to hide froulls It was difficult to say anything about what he thinks of Frederick It is easy to iine that it could suddenly become their enemy Therefore it is better to share it with only the bare minimum of information …

– I have a daughter … – but thinking ahead Seagull Torah – Arthur Gas – father

Chaika admitted around itself

Tohru sighed again

She seemed almost afraid of what Frederick feil Of course, not Frederick hunted her 24 hours a day, as the Torah, and seeulls This partly explains the courage Gulls

– … Eh? – Of course, it is the recognition of a little surprised even Frederick

– Her real naull Gas

It is clear now that a senseless to deny

Tohru sighed again, then added:

– In fact, the ull just wants a decent burial of his father

– “Bury” … – Frederick repeated this word in such a bewildered voice, as if he had heard for the first time – Ah Bury Bury … so? Clear

By repeating the word several ti, Frederick nodded

– Exactly People to this very sensitive about

– Youdifferent

– Eh? Ah … you’re talking about Dominic? – Frederica’s voice was heard uncertainty

When Doirl feil contracted died, Frederick wanted so much to fulfill her wish, she started to act out the role of Dominica, took its shape and even caused Tohru squad into battle Froanized by Frederica for Dominica, but …
