Chapter 20 (1/2)
3 And so the story begins (4)
4 Their story: Aruen Rood’s story
Ahhhh I don’t want to work I really really don’t want to But reality is cruel
“The objective is Instructor Naruan”
Ah, I don’t want to have anything to do with that human anymore
To think I have to crawl back to the
And worse, he’s an ene the instructor there’s no way he’d come peacefully, and if I harirl Sia would definitely drive a few knives into my stomach without hesitation
Actually, I don’t knohat the male Sia in Internal Affairs, Maren would do either
The Intelligence Agency is scary but Internal Affairs isn’t a lightweight either
If they cut down on the budget for arrows just a tiny bit then we’d have only five arrows instead of ten
I’m scared The fanatics are scary, the person hi around just one of those daht vanishes instantly
“How ?”
The da me Even if we look like this we’d at least be ht order
Allsword ki If the squad leaders were given the time then some of them could even hit the swords to the instructor only the ones that can do it would do it You could say that they could die always at the precipice of beco a swordsmaster, but if it’s that level of co power of a powerful kingdoanization’s blackened knives
Boss’s swords that exist only to cull the traitors aroup is me But still, I hate what I hate And so
“Get everyone ready”
“Everyone?”
The instructor said this
There’s nothing as powerful in a fight as force of numbers No matter how useless they are they can still be used as a meat shi+eld so use them if you can
It’s a time-honoured tradition that hu as they listen to instructions, and unless there’s a h title present, take as istics teaainst the instructor the right thing to do is to take everyone
“The enemy is Instructor Naruan”
“I heard the rumours, but I also heard that he has no mana”
“But we could never defeat that person that had no mana, not even once”
“… Not even captain?”
“Yes Let alone 1:1, even when all seven of us rushed hile victory”
To be honest I can’t even beat hiap can be ic weapon surpasses all iet hit then that’s one out already
Just as we got used to that another one showed up And if you get hit by that then that’s not just a si in the River Styx butthe torment
It doesn’t evento go die but the soul and consciousness stays in the land of the living and keeps feeling the beating!
It’s not so it
To add insult to injury even after being hit by that pain your body wakes up the next uarantee it If you would compare it to the demons where the de, not even the de where a hundred out of a hundred die screaic weapon
At least that thing has the decency to kill you? This thing won’t even let you die
And so, using all the surveillance options I had available, I confirmed whether the instructor had the bat on him
The result, in the case of the bat, Rein’s currently in possession of it and is diligently beating the crap out of our juniors
Hmm I kinda envy him
And as for the most important metal bat, the instructor said he left it in his office Considering he said it’s an educational tool, he doesn’t seenments
Just in case I checked another 25 ti over the ain Our job is to capture the instructor alive, and take him to the promised location Since there is the possibility that the Empire’s forces could attack us after we hand the instructor over, take caution”
That’s what I’, but I still fear the instructor I suppose the same went for the rest of our cohort
Our fear of the metal bat in particular even created thea year early after all
Was there ever a ti, shi+vering in fear as I desired death?
Even the instructor-fanatics Sia and Maren, when the metal bat came out, both of them were dead serious in front of the instructor
No, from the nahly I searched through the organization’s infor that led ins
Since I went as far back as the ancient texts, this was a word the instructor invented Bat… just hearing the naly reeks of a powerful curse
As I chewed over my past’s painful memories we’d already arrived in three days
Ahh, damn it Time went by filthily quickly We headed to the promised barony in advance to surround him…
“You are already surrounded!”
“D, damn it! shi+t! Destroy all the important information, meet up at the pro
It’s burning really well even fro to plan we’d infiltrate and capture the instructor secretly, at this rate we’ll be the ones getting captured fighting the eht with the empire isn’t possible
It’s not like we’d lose, but their organizational power is so good when you’re beating one of the up to take a crack at you
And once you beat those five then another et tired and eventually succumb to sheer numbers
“Has he been captured by the empire?”
“No The instructor has no reason to be captured by just those forces Look around at places that are absent of people, and once you find hiet in contact”
Please, if things don’t go according to plan I can just say he got away, but if he is found then I need to go capture him…
But these damn subordinates see in the bushes on a hill while watching the house burn through a telescope
His eyes were always pretty good and he found hidden things quite well as a result, but noent and found the instructor as well
daot back I’d do ht
All theshot
In return for having no mana he was very sensitive to bloodthirst and presence so arroere fired so he couldn’t get anywhere far, and just in case I sent forward souys as meat shi+elds to start a conversation
“Instructor Naruan! This is the organization’s orders I strongly urge you to come peacefully”
“What’s the problem?”
