Chapter 38 (2/2)

“L-lieutenant! It´s serious!!”

“Whatever it is, it looks like rebels have appeared”

“If you becouys want you to”

Riku rebuked the tere somewhat flustered It was at times like this that it was necessary to deal with the probleave a deep breath, and then, she looked at the direction the screa from Perhaps it happened because the air of the winter was very dry1 The i scorched while it rose sounds of being burnt

“Second lieutenant Vrusto, take control of the soldiers and suppress the co off the co”

“Understood”

Lightly lowering his head, Vrusto immediately headed out at fast speeds In an instant, Vrusto vanished from the place he used to be just like the wind

“But , why do you say there should be about three people?”

Roppu asked her this aard question While looking at the fire, she flatly replied

“First of all, it was because hearing fro”

“Eh? Weren´t you sleeping at this time?”

“I didn´t feel like sleeping, and also didn´t feel like training Rather than that, how do you think they were able to get in here?”

While still gazing at the fire, she asked Roppu While lowering his eyebrows, he earnestly started to ponder about the question After the screa voices were raised two more times, Roppu spoke about his doubts

“To climb the walls of Karkata… Is impossible It is too tall for someone to forcibly try to climb it up, and even if there was so down a rope for theuards would have noticed”

“If that´s the case, then does it atekeeper had betrayed us?”

“It shouldn´t be it The role of being the gatekeeper are given to deenerations”

“Yes, even if he te to do that in his own accord At least, tonight´s patrolling is very rigorous for him to do that”

“…Right I think it would have been more effective to cause turmoil after the banquet happened”

With all that said, then how did they get in?

First of all, why did they start a fire today? Since it was easy for them to infiltrate, it would have been better to wait to cause the confusion after their vigilance cooled down It was just as Roppu had said: the confusion would have spread even more if they had started the fire after everyone was drunk at the banquet

“To begin with, ould they want to cause turmoil? Because, since it is only two or three people, even if they cause disorder, because ould be able to i to it”

Roppu said those words worriedly He was boiling with all these questions Slowly er to her chin, Riku started to think The fire was getting worse, and noas spreading to the pen the sheep were at

“Wouldn´t itto the disorder if it wasn´t caused today?”

“You mean the people infiltrated and the people outside are not in conditions to be properly cooperating with each other?”

“That´s right In other words, they had previously decided that it was [today] that they would act”

“Uhh… This means that today, the eneht a fire, and also knew that the fire wouldlike that?”

Riku nodded at Roppu´s doubts

“Yes…In other words, itwith the outside troops”

In wars, it was the standard to cause turiven fro their troops cohts, Vrusto came back

“Ojou-chan We caught the three people that put fire onto the pen”

“In the end, it was three people Where are they?”

“Right now, they are being dragged to the plaza It looks like it will take some time to put down the fire It had spread a lot after all”

Being led by Vrusto, together with Roppu, Riku headed to the plaza There, the three men were tied with ropes Curiously, they were the three soldiers she had seen before at dusk In seems like they were soldiers of the Barusak that had slipped in

“So the azes was this”

Riku understood now She was that worthless child they had thought to be dead, but for some reason, she was at the Demon Lord army now There was no way for them to not be surprised They probably had had a si at the Barusak soldiers that were glaring at her, she thought about those things for a ht now, it was not the ti her halberd, she cut the three people´s head off without saying anything

“Wai-, ojou-chan!? Shouldn´t we have pressed them for information!!?”

“Before we could do that, they ht have been fine to search whether they had boht now, ti else to do”

In reality, she wanted to torture thehly

She wanted to peel their skin, crush their bones and torture theht now, she didn´t have the tie herself in this pleasure later

“Iate”

“Ha? Why is it? Before extinguishi+ng the fire?”

Even now, the fire was vigorously burning

If they don´t put off the fire soon, it will spread even e, it was possible that even the residential area lance to the fire It was as if it would bethe corner of her lips, her eyes went back to Vrusto

“We will be using it instead This huge signal fire”2
