Chapter 14 (1/2)

Mountainous area in the southwestern part of Arcadia. Here is Arcadia’s border with Small Country Tire. Even though there are seven kingdoms, no, since there are seven kingdoms, there are many such border lines, and even if there is a difference in national power, it is impossible to spread all directions in all directions.

The priority of the tires is not high for Arcadia. Therefore, skirmishes antagonize. No, I was antagonistic. Until now–

“Okay, let’s go. Two are Carl’s escort, the rest are me.”

A group wrapped in a green cloak covered with soil. Seeing from the side, the landscape that was assimilating to the soil began to move. Throw away the cloak and go down the slope at a glance.

“Well!”

Surprise from a high place. It is already too late when I notice it. I caught the side of the column from the height.

“Hyu”

There is no way to do things to the enemy. in addition–

“Oh!”

Everyone is equipped with a long boat, except those who hit the enemy at the beginning. The advantage of high places, the advantage of equipment, the advantage of the enemy’s tactics. Complete absence, ready for victory. Which means that the fight is

“White Mask !?”

“Is the end”

It is over before it starts.

There are more than ten traps on the border battlefield. The lives of ten people were destroyed in an instant.

“William! Are you okay?”

Carl von Taylor, a blond young man who runs up. A man in a white mask looks back at it.

“Did you seem to be alright?”

A white mask man, William Liwius, said with a fresh smile and sarcasm in his mouth. Also, whether it is a relief or not, Karl has a relieved face.

“Oh, let’s move to the next place. It’s a great mountain game. I have to earn a little more.”

“A mountain battle has a wider range of tactics than a field war? Because the effect of the terrain is large, the position is very echoing, so there is no visibility, so it is possible to attack assaults or assaults.”

“Are you studying hard?”

“Well, I’m doing all of William’s homework.”

“… I would like to study spontaneously if possible”

“… I will treat you well”

The subordinates are conversations of master-slave reversal which is a familiar sight. The ten commander, Carl, and William, who assists it, has a personal relationship with Carl who is studying with William. Of course, in public places they make curls, and they never cross a line, but in the curling sense they had a strange relationship where they were dissatisfied with them.

“If it’s a small mountain, it’s easy to put the battlefield on the battlefield. It’s still high, I’d like to save two more. Ignaz headed up, Frank assisted, and the operation site was yesterday’s strategy if there were no unexpected movements. The point on the street is good. Carl is in the middle stage adjusting the squadron, I will go out in a row. ”

“Roger that”

Ignats is short and cool. Tranquil and calm is Frank. Both are the people who pulled out of the trading house under the Taylor family umbrella when Karl formed the Ten Corps. The arms of the sword are fair, but the level of allegiance to Carl is different. It is natural to say that it is commonplace because the family and the company are taken to a hostage.

Starting with Ignats, Frank continues with others. Shin’s William does not move until it confirms that everyone has moved. Make sure everyone is moving and wait for some distance. In any case, it seems that it is isolated by solitary action, but William’s wide view behind the back has a great effect on the team. In addition, William can escape unless it is captured or surrounded by an enemy. Therefore, we will open a little more than others. That’s why.

“……HM”

To make fun, William kicks the head of the commander of the enemy, who jumped a while ago. As I rolled around the ground, I was surprised to find a strange feeling of exhilaration and a sense of small conquest.

“How was your life so far? Was it happy? Was it unhappy? Is there a wife? Is there a daughter, a son? Is there a friend?”

William can not hold back the blazing smile.

“I’m jealous of jealousy, I’m dead, I’m finished, I’m incompetent. Good luck, unhappiness, rich, poor, noble, slave, change, I’m dead you lost, I’m alive, it won. It’s all. ”

William leaves the force of words and tries to step on the man’s head. that moment–

“Hmm?”

A sense of discomfort runs in my chest. Painful, sad, unbelievable pain.

The eyes of William, who had a mask, appeared in the eyes that were open to the abolition of the man. A horrible monster that transforms the death of a hatred beast, another, misfortune, into pleasure. “I” reflected in the back of his eyes looked at it with a sad expression.

“That’s all …. Nobuo”

Saying so, William stomped on the man’s head to defeat the illusion. A sloppy head. The bouncing blood hits the cheek and wipes it. Both the illusion and the pain splattered. What remains-

“It’s a good battlefield. It’s easy to understand the minutes when death is near, the minutes when exchanges are pure.”

A beast that suffers from human skin.

Cover the mouth with your hands and hide the smile. As you understand, this smile does not give people a good feeling. It would seem rather unpleasant. That’s why hide it.

(No, it’s not bad because the mask is also useful for selling “faces”. It’s good, too.)

I have run the battlefield many times since that day. Among them, there has never been a runaway like in Laconia. Calmly, and sometimes degassing like now, I have had full control over myself.

(Night, except)

A dream I have been watching since that day. Black-haired maiden and boy, and-

(Fullying flock of dead)

As you run through the battlefield, the growing number of dead people. The boy holds a knee and cries like a victim. The maiden holds it gently. It’s a very nauseating scene. Nowadays, rather than the dead, the relationship between the two is unpleasant. That’s why I do not know William.

“Oops, we have to move soon”

Wasteful thinking is largely eliminated. Masks look at themselves.

“Well, I guess I can switch.”

While running through many battlefields, Yuna begins to rush through the battlefield. William Liwius, a mighty devil with “White Mask”. Carl Tens. Undefeated corps that continues to raise war results. The name “White Mask” is starting to echo to the battlefield little by little.

“Oh, Mr. William. This is it.”

Frank invites William who has caught up.

“Don’t pity”

The form behind the enemy according to William’s strategy. The enemy line is over ten people and has a square. There is almost no difference in the number of people, and it is an ideal good form to attack.

“……”

We usually attack without hesitation. But William kept silent.

(The other party is probably the Hundred Captain. The armor is different from the others.)

A man with a different look at the center of the enemy team. William narrows his eyes.

(I say that reason can be won, but-)

Ahead of William’s eyes. A man who is confident and waiting for the enemy. Seeing a slight chill coming from there-

“… I will withdraw”

Judgment is withdrawal. We instruct withdrawal while keeping good condition until here. It will also be tempting to challenge William if you do not know this Carl Tens. But-

“Well, Ny head back to me again?”

Ignats promptly accept the following instructions. Others do not show a special surprise. If William says to withdraw, it will withdraw. This is the iron rule of this party.

“Oh, I’ll wait at the next point.

The reason why the Karl Tens is unbeatable. We will attack William by paying close attention to it. We will not lose the winning game, and we will completely avoid the unmatched game.

“Let’s all then go.”

The order of Karl initiates withdrawal and movement to another point. The action that is carried out orderly without worries is dreadful enough. It is extremely difficult to be reluctant or greedy to retreat. It is difficult to distribute that intention throughout the entire squadron.

“Oh, quickly, but quietly.”

“Well, if you talk, you will be angry with William.”

“Well!”

Although difficult, William’s armed forces and Carl’s personality had it rooted. William’s force and achievement make persuasive, and Carl’s favored personality makes it accept without hesitation. The atmosphere of the party is quite good. The ability is also rising.

(This is fine now. This is the best.)

William will do his best. Because it is best to make it thorough.

“……”

Still, the person who makes it thorough is

“Stuck up”

I was not convinced.

○

“Hmm?”

The center of the square. The eyes of a man looked like something that stood up slightly.

“Oh, is it a white mask? Stuck, it’s a ruthless waist.”

It seems that the withdrawal has almost finished. It is wonderful to create a situation where it is difficult to catch up with the advantage of the ground. But that’s it. There is no “fear” for a man.

“Oh a white mask! How about fighting with us without running away?”
