Chapter 222 (1/2)

In front of William stood Rutgard with a gentle expression. There would have been a variety of sufferings up to here. Have you ever been happy when you were accustomed to the footsteps of the world you hear little by little?

“I bet you lost”

I can’t see any regrets for Rutgard.

“You thought you would win?”

The eyes are straight-

“No, it’s still worth betting. If you lose, I got these seven years. That’s enough.”

Shoot the heart of William. Ah, why are the faces of those who prepared to die restless? The beauty of the appearance of accepting it in front of death can not be changed to anything else. A miracle of resolution, self-question, suffering, hopelessness, crowding in, all accepting and encasing them.

“I’ve been thinking for a long time. You are probably different from Victoria. As you said, there should be a reason, you’re supposed to meet for the first time, why did you look away? “Why don’t you give me a favor to me?”

Rutgard listens to it happily. Whatever my thoughts, I always thought about myself. Even such things make you feel happy. if–

“The conclusion is that I’m not doing anything. It’s a sloppy al before I became an idiot, yes, that spilled name that you spilled out. I can’t remember what I did. Even when I tried to remember the times, everything was messed up that day, and the simmering writhing hate was distorting before that day, I can not remember, but I can only think so. ”

If it gets close to the core-

“I think it’s thin, but at first I wondered if the blade I left behind was a woman, I wondered if it had arrived. A woman in Lusitania … A woman who came up to my throat, she got me by some means I told someone who I was, you got it, there is nowhere but the deadly gap I showed, but then it would be funny: she knew I wasn’t Lusitania’s William, but , I should not know that I was a slave to say Al

Therefore, it can be guessed that it is not the blade left by Brigitte. Then what can the rest be considered? My memory after that day is clear. Even if it is sober Rutgardo as a noble family’s daughter, the noble family’s daughter is not a standard that I can not forget. If it is an average including citizens, she is beautiful, and if she has a preference for her, she is surely a woman with an atmosphere like her.

So I will not forget. If that day or later-

“I was full of opportunities from me”

Rutgard who laughs and smiles. I think it’s being teasing, and William is a little bit sick.

“In the old days, I was looking down all the time. I was reading a book while walking along the road, writing on the ground in the corner of the alley. I was desperate, blooded, wanted power, rejected everything. And no matter if someone called or asked, their eyes never reflected the other, but they were working hard to make only their knowledge and their own flesh. ”

She knows a time when she was called al. I also know that I worked in a bookstore and got some knowledge here. So naturally she knows. What happened to those bookstores who were acting as parents?

“I do not think that your judgment is correct, but I think that it was only for the boy Al to be up in the country. You appeared in front of me as William of Lusitania I was astonished when I was far away and I only had to look at it.

At that point I was close to conviction.

“Only I know. And I’m the closest. Nature, like the air, not get in the way, but as it is needed, someday someday Nearly … I hate the weakness, it is natural to lose to that person, I was not prepared for the courage to step in. I can’t grasp anything just by waiting.

Rutgard smiles.

“I hate me all the time. I am not suitable for you. I will surely get in the way where you are aiming. I just excuse me, I just run away and I hate the most awkward I. But Well, that’s why I like a little bit of my present. I bet and step into everything to stand next to you. I’ve grabbed these seven years. Next to you I am now. ”

For seven years, I thought that I never faded. Her mind was fixed long before William’s assumption. There was no courage to step in, and because he was so clever, he would have missed many times because he was too visible.

“I have met you, long ago, when your hair was still black”

“I’m sorry. I do not remember.”

“It’s only a little bit of destiny, but it was a big affair for me. All my values ​​were broken and the world was a monotone color. The bright red sunset on your back, Beauty, I will not forget

Rutgard’s memory did not come out after William’s memory. Perhaps the encounter wasn’t that big for the boy Al. It is not the same impact for a boy as her encounter with her sense of values ​​collapses.

“Pure red … So, Ruby, do you?”

“… Is it safe?”

“Slightly,”

The laughing couple finally exposed everything. There is nothing to hide anymore.

“It was a while”

“Yes, really. It was a happy time. How was it for William?”

“Oh, I was happy. That’s why-”

William smiled sadly.

“I will kill you. The world has chosen me. Then I have to do my best. And my best, there is no you in it. No, no one will be.”

Rutgard whispered quietly.

“I know. I know this will happen, I know it would be painful if I cut it down, and I stepped into you. My own inadequate happiness, its swing back in my life”

“It is meaningless to die by myself. If I take away you, it makes no sense. If it is a minute of fortunate happiness, I will do the same. I hold you with this bloody hand, and I have given him to Alfred. Pain, I also have to enjoy, but I would rather suffer. ”

For William, there was always a woman named Rutgard. Be aware, wise and convenient. I have been there many times over there.

“I kill you. But that’s not now. Good.”

“Yes, I will leave everything”

Surely, doing so is a punishment for each other. William was guilty of sin, and Rutgard completely missed it. Sometimes they carry a stick. There is punishment for sin. Rutgardo has his own life, William can only take away.

If you take it, the void like that time will eat away from your chest. When I lost Arlette, I was captivated by despair. When I lost Victoria, I felt the coldness of despair and the loneliness that goes beyond death. And this is the last loss.

“Have I been able to punish you?”

“It’s not enough, I didn’t say that, but I always liked you, but I knew I could not be happy and I thought I should take distance because I like it, but Those who I liked will come to reduce the distance.Even when I’m doing it with care, I’ve made a fool of it, and I’ve stepped in as smart as you are. There is no such love of such a fool as it is a true fool. ”

“The words are enough. Even if you’re a friend, you got me side by side.”

Sin, punishment, and even love are decided by hand.

“I will move forward. I will be alone before that. Victoria, you and I will come to a height where no one can come close. What will you do at the end of the road? What does it mean to you and Viktoria’s death? Look at the other side of the island, make sure to show the meaning. ”

Every time I take it, it gets stronger. I continued to rob it and I came here. I will take it again this time. And further increase the strength. No one can come along. To a place higher than anyone-

“I’m looking forward to it. I will always die, even if I die. I’m good at waiting.”

One more thing, William gets a job.

When William and Rutgard came out of the mansion, Carl saw that the talk had settled on the change of atmosphere. At the same time, Hilda feels completely different. It has been decided. It is not only this couple. The destination of this country, the world,

“I’ll leave tomorrow. Good will be rushed.”

“Are you ready?”

“If I’m alone, I’m making lots of preparations. Rutgarde and Alfred have a late move to Alcus. It’s just a battlefield, it’s good to swing a sword. There’s no need to be careful.”

“Because I just return to the place you should be.”

“I liked this place too”

Claude, who listens a little at a distance from William’s and Karl’s conversation, knows that at last he had a dream come true. A sense of helplessness that has gradually been gradually defeated and tasted each time the territory is scraped.

Possibility of breaking the present situation appeared.

“Claude, Alfred, there is a story. It’s an important story.”

“I’m going now! I’m going to see you Albo!”

“Yeah, I’m in Claude”

Alfred remembers later. This day, this time, the golden age for me was over. Father and mother who love oneself unconditionally. Interesting older brother and sister who often visits. Calm, fulfilling days, hard to get everyday,

remember. I will never return this time again.

The golden age quietly comes to an end, and the time when it has stagnated starts to move.

“Is this the present Arcass?”

Even if it is small, it will be a big influence if it continues defeat. Arcas I visited for the first time in a long time had changed a lot. William last visited only once four years ago. The atmosphere I felt at that time was very different.

“Yes, this is Arcass.”

The boulevard is not lively, and people’s faces are dark somewhere. A flock of poor people overflowing to the main street. They probably got some jobs from the beginning, but they made some money. But now they don’t have it. The war that continues to be taken away

“Not just a defeat, but last year’s hunger, isn’t it good again this year?”

“Yeah, unhappiness overlaps, but recently it’s really bad.”

“Does this country also betrayed in the heavens?

“I’m reliable. I really do.”

In seven kingdoms, this name is no longer used, but the focus of this country has expanded beyond the scope of the capitals of the countries named there. The first few years were good for seven years. Carl takes the blouse Tat and Yan holds Galias tight. Anselm is active enough to lose William’s need. I was feared a black knight from the world.

It was only one defeat that everything went crazy. The Arcadia army, who was doing well until then, crawled on pebbles. The people did not feel much about it, and Anselm, who had been the general commander, never gave up. However, from this small defeat, Arcadia falls with anger.

General Yan’s betrayal. The fact that he turned over with Gustav, who is the key to the enemy country of Garias, made a big impact on the world. As an exception, Yang was greeted as a queen, along with Lancero, who had already been accepted as a king sword.

The Arkadia kings, who were furious at betrayed, challenged a total war and ended up with an ironic result of Yan’s brilliant show. The Arcadian army, who lost power at a stretch by this defeat, still shows a persistent threat. Somehow, it was the one in Anselm that was here to stay.

“-Because the Battle Goddess has crossed over with Gallias, this country is still alive. Another monster, the Mercenary King, will appear everywhere, and if it does, it will definitely win the victory. Come on, even if Galias is the other side, it has nothing to do, because there were those two people, at the very least we were able to suppress Galias.

After that, confusion in the world situation also helped Arcadia survive. Several times a few heroes make a forgiving and repeat a beating. If you notice it, you have completed the picture to keep balance. Many met each other and could not make a big move.

“If you say so, I will come to you once. The mercenary king of the dead”

“Huh !? Have you arrived? That mercenary king, Wolf Wolf’s Wolf !?”

“Oh, I’ve come to show off the brat. My wife there is good, I firmly laid in my ass. I laughed involuntarily. My son had a good body for years, and that’s an egg of a hero.”

“Wow it’s a rarity. Did you know Claude?”

Curl calling to lead Claude. Claude looked awkward.

“I knew I was there too. I can not forgive the loveliness that I showed off as a lesson.”

“Because you used to have a shot at a long time ago.

“It’s what your child did. It’s getting addicted.”

The story goes on like a talk in the face of Karl’s surprise. But things are not so easy. Wolf is a king of one nation who is known as a mercenary king. The king of the Valhall Kingdom, based on the former Sambalt, was focused on importing and exporting its strength so as to be considered a mercenary state.

The strength gathered in Wolf’s power, which was a great day, was not many, but there were many excellent people, and Valhall’s fighting enthusiasts fought all over the world. Now, the king who swept Laurencia was in contact with the once-unioned monster. If this story was widespread at that time, that alone might have been punished. That is dangerous. If it was betrayed like a certain yan, it would be too much pain for Arcadia.

“Ernst also came after. Together with Leicester”

“Hmm, Ernst. …. Ernst?”

“”Huh!?””

The faces of the two were distorted to the surprise.

“There was a lot of change. Dangerous Rutogard and Alfred were about to be killed. In terms of risk, they are quite good.

“No, nobody should have confirmed their survival in the first place”

“I can’t help but what came.

“Dangerous, it’s too dangerous! Arcadia or William isn’t enough! It’s a category of talks”

“Anyway, let’s say it’s an interesting time for us. Keeping winning is our mission. Let’s give these weak people water to say victory. Once and twice, we go up each time. If you keep winning, you will return to the original form and you should be able to do more than that. ”

William looks to the Royal Palace rising to the end of the street.

“Sat, let’s start with a mountain, let’s go over lightly”

I hope you win. Winning is the only proof of your value. After all, the value of this country is also determined by their own actions. William came here to pull it up.

How long has it been for Eyhart to lose its former radiance? It was good when I was winning. I pushed the heroes into the countryside, but there were more than I imagined to be afraid of the strength of the heroes, and there were also a few that I felt relieved. The victory over the next few years was also bad, now. I made them misunderstand. The strength of ours, the strength of the world, the strength of the heroes we pursued.

The situation changes completely when you start losing. Everybody had a rough search for war criminals, and at the same time, he was forced to replace many military officers. But I can not win. Even if you replace your head, the quake gets deeper. Losing strength will be lost by the defeat, and those who have been retiring for restocking will be recalled and still lose.

Under such circumstances, the white knight long-awaited theory that begins to come out without saying who. I can not put it in my mouth. It is understandable to buy the idiot of the prince who led the chopsticks. However, the loss continues. Hunger was over, and the country became desolate, and the minds of the people, including the nobles, went out.
