Vol 1 Chapter 10 (2/2)
And if they were not part of the bandits, then why had Rory and the others coe?
She should just deny theht turn them into enemies
Piña wanted Rory and friends on her side After all, the townspeople and soldiers would be certain of victory with an Apostle of Ee on their side
She sensed that she lacked the leadershi+p skills to make her men certain of their victory
Although she wasn’t sure why Rory and the others had co, then she could tell the residents, “Help is here!”
No, there was no ti discussions She had to make them her allies
Either that, or forbid them entry She had two choices
As Piña was thinking of what to do, the sound of knocking caate
She held her breath
Then, Piña gulped, andde them over to her side
The thrice-bolted gate was forcefully and powerfully thrust open
“You’re here at last!”
After feeling a dull thudding sensation through her hands, Piña saw Rory, the Elf girl, and theat a man as collapsed in front of the door
His eyes had rolled up in his head and he had lost consciousness
Immediately, the three of them stared coldly at Piña
“Could it be… that… that was my fault?”
The white-clad e, the black-clad priestess, and the blonde, blue-eyed Elf nodded as one
Rory and Lelei kneas just an accident, so they did not blame Piña, but instead they went to help the unconscious Itami
Ita a heavy suit of ar hi his clothes to help him breathe
First, they should re on his head After that, they wanted to take his shi+rt off, but what they thought was a cloth shi+rt turned out to have metal plates in it The shi+rt was mysterious in more than just its appearance, and they had no idea where to start They decided to try and loosen his collar
Rory put Itami’s head in her lap, while Tuka took a water canteen from his belt
The sentries and townspeople gathered round to ask, “What’s going on?”
Piña choked up and could not answer
Lelei used all the knowledge she had to begin diagnosing Itami
She peeled his eyelids open to check on his eyeballs, then looked at his nose, ears andor injury, palpated his face and head to see if there were any hidden injuries, and after h of relief
After that, she finally looked at Piña with accusing eyes
“What were you trying to do?!”
However, the first to speak was not Lelei, but Tuka
As she poured the canteen’s water on Ita the door so forcefully when she knew someone was on the other side
She even went so far as to say rude things like “Dumber than a Goblin”, but Piña knew that it was her fault for being careless, so she reetic expression on her face She looked nothing like an Imperial Princess now
When people got angry, the people around theet excited or become even calmer Lelei was now very calm, and she seemed to have realized she was now in Italica
With a glance, she realized the exit was shut and the bolt was in place The guards and the townspeople had gathered around them
She couldn’t help glancing at Rory… but the black-clad priestess simply smiled in amusement
Itami recovered consciousness after a while
“Owie,” he said as he rubbed his chin, while opening his eyes It was then that he realized the face of Rory, the black-clad priestess, now filled his field of vision
Her black hair grazed across Itami’s face It was a little prickly
She looked very young, but her expression was like aaround He couldn’t tell if she was joking with hi serious Her hands held Ita beauty in her black pupils
“Ara~ he’s awake”
The words came from this world, but he could understand the of silver bells, and pleased his ears
“Do you re?”
Itami nodded
The door that had suddenly flung open sone black It would seem he had passed out for a while
As he opened his eyes further, behind Rory’s face… a lot of people were looking at Itami, and he saw Lelei’s worried face
Suddenly, he heard Tuka scolding sorily
He had been furiously studying this world’s language, but now he did not need a translator to understand the words around hie center in his brainbashed in the head
The No2 bulletproof vest was heavy, so Itareat effort
For some reason, his upper body was soaked
As Tuka was halfway through her scolding, she seeotten up and she asked, “Are you alright?”
“Yup I’ve let you see an e side of me”
Itami pulled up the zipper on his shi+rt and did up the buttons of his bulletproof vest
After that, he retrieved his helear
He heard Sergeant-Major Kuwabara trying to reach him, and pressed the switch on his lower chest
“Lieutenant, are you okay? I orried”
“Kind of, yeah I passed out for a bit”
“If you had waited any longer, I would have ordered our guys to burst in”
Being able to avoid an unnecessary battle was a forood fortune It would be terrible if they left behind casualties because if this Kuwabara had waited so long because such thoughts were on his mind The need to rescue a captured coht It was hard for him to decide which to prioritize
“I’ll contact you again once I figure out what’s going on Stand by for now”
“Got it”
“All right then, who’s going to tellon?”
Ita the people around him
Rory looked at Tuka, Tuka looked at Lelei, Lelei looked at Piña, and Piña looked pleadingly to everyone around her In the end, they all looked away, uneasy looks on their faces
Was it lukewarm or confused…? Well, the best word for their ht be “leisurely”
