Chapter 108 (2/2)
[I'm Wazu, the child on my head is Meru] (Wazu)
[Kyuii~] (Meru)
Saying so, Barro-san lowered his head slightly to us while the other beastmen raised their hands as form of greeting. I also lowered my head slightly to respond Barro-san.
[Now, I will explain our current situation..... to put it bluntly, is bad. The influential person from moderate faction got caught one after another. There are around 20 top people, including our leader, king Geo Leganile-sama. As a result losing the leaders, the rest of moderate faction couldn't move together. Even if we challange them in small scale, our power is far behind, and we got crushed instead] (Barro)
Barro-san told us with a sad face. He seems to be considerable driven to the corner.
Well, that's the reason Marao was looking Haosui for help. Certainly, it might be possible with Haosui's power. It's a feast for brute strength. I also can do it though. But there is the matter about hostages. First we need to save them.
It seems everything is clear to this point. Grave-san urges Barro-san to continue. Eh? Since when Grave-san become the main character? It seems I just an extra here. Well, it's okay though.
[I see. Do you know the whereabouts of hostages?] (Grave)
[Yeah, they are detained inside underground jail of the castle right now] (Barro)
[Well then, first we have to rescue the hostage before proceed with other talk] (Grave)
[That's right. I was also thinking of sneaking into the castle tomorrow night] (Barro)
[If you are going to that place, leave the guide to me!! Because I know the secret route] (Marao)
Marao puffing her chest with a ”leave it to me” air. However, Barro-san who saw such behavior admonishing Marao.
[No, princess will stay in this house. I will go with my subordinates and these two helpers] (Barro)
[Why is that!? I also want to rescue father!!] (Marao)
[Not happening. It's too dangerous. Princess is the last hope for moderate faction. We can't let something happen to princess. Please understand] (Barro)
Said so, Barro-san lowered his head deeply towards Marao and stayed in that position for a while. To such figure, Marao sighed greatly as she slightly tremble while looking up the sky.
[Haaa~..... I understand. I will wait here!! In exchange, you absolutely have to rescue father and the other!!] (Marao)
[..........Ou, leave it to me!!] (Barro)
Once Marao and Barro-san finished their exchange, we conclude this discussion. Beastmen are sensitive to body odor, because of that Grave-san and I are prohibited to leave this house until tomorrow evening.
Barro-san says that there is only beastman in this city now, it's going to stand out if normal human walk around the city. Every corners of this city are being monitored by hardliner faction, so it's just to make sure.
They offered us a room in this house to spend the night. Grave-san and Iura-san are sleep in the same room as expected. I'm not feeling lonely, okay!?
