Chapter 443 - 443: Going to Lyrue, inside Mountain Kingdom part 1 (1/2)
Tibet, that's the best description that I can come up with after seeing this nation for the first time. It's absolutely stunning, with wintery theme all over the place. The people are nice even when they're basically in a deep crisis, and that's actually a bit concerning, since I can spot so many ”twins” hanging around together. Concerning because of two things
1) Are they being brainwashed by their fake doppelgangers? Or
2) Are they really in deep trouble? If they aren't, why should we help the resistance group
I mean, you can practically see two sets of identical families, from the grandparents down right to their pets, nearly identical sitting together, having their usual buttercup tea with fatty bread in one of the restaurant, all harmoniously while the light snow keep falling. If I am being honest, I am kinda jealous seeing that sight, and I just don't want to disturb them
((Are they really in trouble??)) [Lara, Nara]
((Beats us)) [Kara, Mara]
(We should probably listen to the resistance first) [Aries]
(That would be for the better) [Zerolith]
Our very twins, Aries and Zerolith are having the same doubts as mine. I'm sure the other are also thinking of the same thing, which prompts me to
”I'll explain what truly happened once we are there” [Resistance leader]
”For now, trust us” [Long hair girl]
”If you said so, but I'm only trusting my fellow siblings for now, not the resistance group they're trying to help” [Ash]
”Fair enough” [Resistance leader]
The resistance group might be lying and tricking my fellow siblings from different orphanages, but seeing as how those siblings of mine carry themselves out, even went as far as settings their own version of communication stones using the devil magic core, I doubt they will be foolish enough to get themselves tricked by the resistance group
”What is th...” [Charlotte]
”Charlotte!” [Dwarf trader]
One of the siblings make a ”SHH!!!” sign and quickly prompt Charlotte not to point her finger at a certain area behind the alley. Naturally, our eyes glued into it. None of us turn our head, but simply gaze upon the alley that Charlotte's pointed out, and
(Just...) [Diana]
(Goddess...) [Muse]
(We should probably increase our pace) [Bunny beastman]
(Good idea miss. Everyone, please follow me) [Resistance leader]
(Right!) [All]
Gosh, if only I can use the camper van golem or the bus golem inside this country, than we can all stare at that thing for as long as we wanted to, but given how we are basically infiltrating this nation, we couldn't do that.
Once we are inside a certain inn, and the owner recognize the resistance leader, all of us take a moment to let out our sigh
”Just... what is that?” [Alaric]
”I can sense multiple of the same souls inside that gooey visceral thing...” [Linda]
””Same here”” [Lara, Nara]
”Same souls? You don't mean...” [Diana]
”I get this feeling, that's what happen when the fake doppelgangers and the real live person mingles with each other for so long... Am I right?” [Ash]
”That's correct” [Resistance leader]
”Then why is there 'something'... No multiple thing that feast upon it?” [Savel]
”Kinda reminds me of how the devils cannibalized each other to get stronger” [Singa]
”You're right... It feels similar in a way” [Elise]
”And the people around here, aren't they acting overly calm... Don't they know what will happen?” [Karon]
