95 The Sword of Truth (Not Really)

Man, Salrut really got us I never thought that he of all people would actually be the person pulling the strings behind all this

I really wish I found out his true nature right ethe Principle of Falsehood active 24/7 wasn’t exactly so to do

The thing is, I was actually planning to sit down and interrogate hi him because he was one of the twins’ acquaintances

In fact, we ended up trusting hi the skill on him until after we’d used it on Naymario

『Hmm… What to do…?』

Either e first decided to heal the soldiers that we just beat up so that they wouldn’t die while we considered our options Only after that did I continue to ponder

I was absolutely certain that Salrut was a Reidosian spy and that he orking together with Naymario The only problem was that I couldn’t prove it We couldn’t prove that we had the ability to see through lies either, so that was a no go

Man, all this spy and conspiracy stuff was a huge pain to deal with I almost just wanted to ditch the a bit too far At this rate, Salrut was probably going to end up having the twins assassinated whilst also silencing Serid in the process

Ito Serid, but, I did want to help the twins They were Fran’s friends She’d probably end up pretty sad if so happened to them

『We need to figure out hoe can get him to confess』

（Beat him up?）

（Woof?）

『Wait, wait Beating infor you turn to It’s more of a last resort』

（Really?）

The way I saw it, spies tended to be the type of people that wouldn’t talk regardless of how ht not even help us at all to begin with

And if things went south, then wewanted by the state

「Is that enough? I would really like to get to questioning him」

crap! They’re going to go drag Serid off so quick Come on me! Think! Think!

（Brute force?）

（Woof woof!）

『Hold on! I already told you to make that our last resort!』

If this kept up, Fran was probably going to pull her supposed last resort out right away

Wait, I got it! This’ll probably sound a bit forced, but it was pretty iven a moment’s notice

『Fran, make sure you repeat exactly what I say』

（Nn Got it）

『Urushi+, go casually stand around where Salrut and Nay like that』

（Woof!）

Alright, here's to hoping this works…

「Wait Just a bit」

First things first, we made sure they didn’t actually carry Serid off anywhere

「What is it?」

Salrut seeain, which was good The less calm he was, the easier this would be

「Have iteuilt」

「Oh?」

Salrut made a bit of a dubious face in response He likely didn’t want us to interfere further, but decided to go along with it for the ti Serid, on the other hand, had his face cloud over He probably thought ere on Salrut’s side, and that ere trying to uilty than he already was

「Seal release」

I ily in response to Fran’s words I activated Thunder Blade while also using purification based ic in order to make myself appear divine

「Woah!」

「W-What in the world is that?」

The people around us let out cries of shock as they watched a glowing sword suddenly change shape right before their very eyes My blade grew several wing shaped protrusions; I turned what appeared to be a cere more than rituals

「W-What is that?」

「Sword of Truth Functionality easier to show than explain Flut」

「Y-Yes?」

「Say sister’s name」

「Wha?」

「Tell me your sister's name Give answer」

「A-Alright My sister’s name is Satia Diel Fyrias」

『The truth has been spoken』

「W-Woah, where did that voice come from!?」

「Sword of Truth Magic tool Discerns the truth from lies」

Yup, one big fat lie, co as how I do have the Principle of Falsehood Whatever, either way, this hat I oing to convince everyone that I was soical lie detector so we could demonstrate that Salrut wasn't what he appeared to be In other words, ere trying to get him to confess

First things first though, we had to ht I was able to discern betas true and asn’t

Times like this almost made , but whatever The issue was that I was kind of a sword, and I wasn’t really , so I wasn’t sure if I could actually e to convince everyone that I was in fact the real deal Moreover, the Principle of Falsehood didn’t actuallyIt did, however, uess

I made sure to make my voice as monotone and machine-like as I could In fact, I actually based my speech patterns off the syste in order to e, but unfortunately, no one here could actually use appraisal, so that ended up as nothing but wasted effort

「Next, Satia’s turn Ask a question」

「Okay In that case, I’ll ask et froellica, on our fifth birthday?」

「I believe she gave us a pair ofamulets」

『The truth has been spoken』

「It answered!」

「And it was correct too」

「I-I’ll ask the next question What is our father’s favourite food?」

「I believe it is meat」
