Chapter 302: Interlude – Chaotic Lorel

‘My head hurts’

This is simply a metaphor, it is not like she actually had a headache She simply had those words surface in her mind after the report

She couldn’t help but feel as if her head was throbbing

She even felt as if she had a fever

“I will prepare the elites to perfom the assassination at once Of course, I will also—”

“Don’t”

“! I will definitely make it succe—”

“DON’T!!”

The rejection was throith a strong tone

Her, Kahara Sairitz, raising her voice to such an extent was an incredibly rare occurrence even for the iven the report

“?!”

“I have no intention of having you kill your own child Why did you try to put your hands on Izumo, Marito?” (Sairitz)

“…As I have reported, Izumo betrayed us” (Marito)

The man, Marito Ikusabe, father of Izumo speaks out his reason bluntly

“Didn’t I order you not to do anything to him no matter what happened?” (Sairitz)

“I took it as the people of the Kuzunoha Company and those involved in it” (Marito)

That’s a lie

Marito had completely understood the point of caution Sairitz had ordered to him in his mission

That this also referred to his own son, Izumo

But thehis fa the feat that he pulled off at that instant in the execution, and to finish it off, secretly calling hi the fa his desire to be independent…

It turned into a situation where father and son clashed blades

The result was as Sairitz technically pointed out Izumo pushed back Marito

Thin, sharp, silent, and secretly

The clearness of that technique he showed in the execution wasn’t a special case or a coincidence

The fight reached a conclusion with a clear winner, and Marito basically ran back to his er, and…envy?” (Sairitz)

“!”

“Your honesty in reporting even the part that was close to a defeat is so worth of praise, but…it is about your family, moreover, with envy in the equation…this is complicated” (Sairitz)

The man in front of Sairitz is incredibly competent, and a man that possesses a rare sense of duty and honor

He reigns in stealth and infor There are times when he has to dirty his hands in truly inhuman acts, and yet, he doesn’t rot or crumble

It is because he holds definite pride in serving their liege family and the country

And yet, his own son didn’t follow the policy of the country, and the fact that so their back to their erace to hier of his

More so, Marito has never been bested by a warrior or e of the saenius in stealth had his own pride

He has of course never lost and be let off

Marito ht not have noticed, his eyes, that are in a sense specialized in looking at people, had clear jealousy towards Izunored

The root must be pulled before unsavory eyes bloo time friend and subordinate that has passed happy and painful ti in regards tohirowth, and ended up having a hard fight But with preparation, there should be no problem” (Marito)

The objection of Marito served to prove the thought of Sairitz

She let out a short sigh

Sairitz begins to treat his wounds with a loose tone, showing mostly the face of a friend

“This is a heavy wound Marito, your vision has narrowed quite a lot This is dangerous” (Sairitz)

“?”

“In the first place, why is it that you fought Izued to return?” (Sairitz)

“…!”

“Why is it that in your thought process, the name of the Kuzunoha Company didn’t come out” (Sairitz)

“Could it be…” (Marito)

“There’s no way they would just watch You, who has seen a part of their fight, ht?” (Sairitz)

“…Yes” (Marito)

Marito understands this clearly too

The fact that the people eanization called the Kuzunoha Coer than hiher ups, their power could even tip the scales of a war, and their representative Raidou is already…

‘Hhts to that point, Marito tilts his head

Then, why is it that he was able to put a hand on someone related to their company, even if that person is his son

“You were allowed to watch them as a person affiliated to me” (Sairitz)

“Yes” (Marito)

“You know that in the past, a Wise-sa into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee’, right?” (Sairitz)

In the world of politics, s that are passed down like a golden cos taken froo ‘is this a SAN valuemy movements were completely on the know?” (Marito)

“Obviously Raidou-sarasp of the many plans set in the whole city, and crush theth With that in consideration, you were able to call Izuht him” (Sairitz)

“They knew that I wouldn’t be able to bringthat the feelings between father and child were taken into consideration?

‘In that case, the man called Raidou has a soft side to hiht

But well, if he were asked if he could do anything with that infors on the scale before that, and he couldn’t think that it would be worth it

“Yeah, and…this is just , not because you wouldn’t be able to bring yourself to kill that boy, but because you wouldn’t be able to kill him in terms of ability” (Sairitz)

“?!”

“That person is not the type to put eood work on your mission in Kannaoi” (Sairitz)

“Huh?” (Marito)

It was such abrupt gratitude that Marito ended up accidentally letting out a dumbfounded voice

Sairitz didn’t really find fault in this and had a sive you a break of a few days, no, 7 days After that, I order you to investigate the movements of the dee Regarding the personnel, you can freely use the people in the division I have also ordered the dragon knight division in the national border defense front to cooperate as well, so keep in mind to have a favorable cooperative relationshi+p as you face this mission” (Sairitz)

“…Yes! Sairitz-sama, thank you very much” (Marito)

Marito understood the intention of Sairitz

Investigate the north; in other words, polish your ability

‘I will give you a break for a while, so no et ht about that, but it is also true that I am bothered by the movements of the deoes without saying but, fighting them is strictly prohibited” (Sairitz)

“I have certainly heard it loud and clear I will be taking my leave!” (Marito)

The presence of Marito disappears

Just in case, she uses a s, and after checking that there is no one, not only the inside of the room, but also around the area that she is alone, Sairitz lets out a big sigh

The contents of the report documents were unbelievable

The rise of Princess Iroha wouldn’t prove any trouble if it were that alone, and it would simply be a matter of what the name for the next decoration for the top of Kannaoi will be

But her traits as a governor she has seen recently, coupled with the documents that show in detail the people of talent in the surroundings, and the special discord between Naoi and Kannaoi, she will become a dicey problematic existence

Sum that to her favorable relationshi+p with the Kuzunoha Company, and Princess Iroha’s existence becomes the number one bomb in Kannaoi

Even so, thanks to the Godsend fact that Izumo is her fiance, she was still able to see the inforht, but…Izumo Ikusabe withdrew from the Ikusabe household

Their chess piece has turned sides, and on top of that, has grown into a powerful coi, but this is reality

There’s the need to keep in mind that your own pieces can turn to the ene it, it would have felt good

“But there’s no assurance that what Izurate or absorb the Ikusabe into the Osakabe Also, I don’t think Princess Iroha and hi Kannaoi become the capital of Lorel” (Sairitz)

In the first place, why did Izumo betray them?

It is also a ht, but that’s 100 the Kuzunoha Company’s deed, is what Sairitz concluded

She couldn’t find any other reason after all

But she couldn’t understand the reason for the betrayal

It is true that Izumo and Princess Iroha are fiance and fiancee

Obviously, they are promised to marry

She knows that they are ers

But…Princess Iroha is simply one of the many fiancees of Izumo, and they don’t even know each other’s faces

What they know coe if they were to know the current appearance of the person if they were to include a portrait or so like that, but…

Izumo and Princess Iroha are children of a military household

It should be their supreme duty to treasure their family, and live for their household and for their country

Arranged es should be just one of the many functions of a military household

Also, she can’t think it possible that Izumo and Princess Iroha would suddenly awaken the desire to bring down Naoi

“Speaking of sudden changes in thoughts, maybe the perfu somehow? But the relationshi+p between Raidou and the heroes is by no ood Especially with the Empire’s Hero… Then, I don’t think he would just leave the effects of the hero there” (Sairitz)

Then what’s going on?

That night, Izuer, and ran to Kannaoi, luckily ht there, and as if in a play, Izumo resolved himself to live by the side of Princess Iroha even if he has to betray his faot, plus the power of love, he ed to beat back Marito…

“Pfft!” (Sairitz)

Feeling how ridiculous her own i

Things like love at first sight and plays, there’s no way fairytale stuff like that could happen in real life

And in reality, the mother of Princess Iroha, Haruka, married someone she didn’t even wish to, and smoldered in Kannaoi

Even with that, she did what she had to do as a mother and as a member of the Osakabe household

Truly reality That’s just how it is

“…Ah, but Chiya-sama liked that kind of stuff, didn’t she” (Sairitz)

Beautiful and kind fairytale worlds

Overcos, continuously chanting your ideals to an unreasonable world, and finally causing change

It is the ideal world that many dream of

That’s why it exists only in paper, and all the people that understand this are able to divide reality and fiction when thinking

Saying: ‘It would be nice if that happened’

Sairitz’s life changed completely when she met one of the Priestess candidates, Chiya

Chiya said she was going to use her whole life for the sake of the world she wishes for

When Chiya eventually became a Priestess and Sairitz served her, she herself clihest position that is the Empress

If the Empress wanted, she would be able to put the Priestess as just a decoration, and do what she wants with most of the politicalthat

Everything is for the sake of Chiya

So that it gets closer to that ideal world that’s in her eyes

That’s why, she would use any and all irl’s eyes into that world

Lorel is flourishi+ng as a byproduct of that

Sairitz is loved by many of her subordinates

For this wo to beautify the world for the eyes of one person, the love of riff-raff is unih

Actually, if Sairitz were to open her heart up and were to do a banquet or so, she would be able to sympathize pretty ith a certain woman that loves the food of the Kuzunoha Co rampant just like Sairitz thinks, and ideals are nor encounters certainly do exist though

“That’s why Chiya-sama must have been attracted by that woman who is like the peak of the idealistic and doesn’t flinch even when rushi+ng to the frontlines How annoying From what I have seen, even she sees reality, and she is the kind of person that would be fine with using dirtyabout fiction I will have soht, Apple Their ely active lately Seriously, one thing after the other” (Sairitz)

She was the one who put the potent medicine into the country

The Kuzunoha Company bit into the Grand Labyrinth just as planned

They even dug it up

It has been confiron Do up, and the other one that she was told on, Futsu, they have been able to confirm that it actually doesn’t exist

They also pulled out the roup that was difficult to deal with

When looking at it in this way, she wouldn’t hesitate to lower her head to the Kuzunoha Co Lorel can do as a show of their gratitude

There haven’t actually been any bad doings fro the

But what follows isn’t good

When she dug the information about them, there was a lot of harvest from it, and if it were only that alone, it would have been soendary existences, Apple, grew active was so that Sairitz didn’t expect at all

The loyal and talented intelligence agent apprentice, Izumo, surpassed his father, and for some reason, not only did he announce his withdrawal fros with Princess Iroha

“He clashed blades with Marito and told hihim passionate, he was more like a loyal machine That’s how I saw him, and yet…” (Sairitz)

The betrayal of Izumo
