”... that's really a last resort. So don't ever get too early.”
”I know. I know.”
”How many times have you been fooled by that word...”
”Ha ha. Now I'm serious.”
”... Absolutely, right?
Side?????
”Hihihihihihihi. It's time for the festivities in this town to end...... How's it going over there?
”Mm-hmm. It was to Diaz, the guild master, who was up for target candidacy, Widget Orrell, the beastman's summariser. Former Rank A Adventurer Fermus. Plus, Demitris, a rank s adventurer. These were the four...”
”Did you squeeze it?
It's Orrell and Demitris.
”That's it! What a hand to the rank s adventurer!
”Oh. Each of these two has a grandson”
”So it's easy to take hostages?
”That's right. Orrell isn't just fighting power, but that knowledge should help too. And Demitris. If we can pull him in here, it's worth it.”
”I know that, but hey. Both would have powerful escorts, wouldn't they? Especially if you're Demitris' grandson, I think a lot of hand-working is protecting you?
”I know.”
”Oh, I can't help you, can I, Charles?
”From my Lord, I borrow my strength. There are other wars in this town. I plan to use it.”
”Hmm? What kind of force, may I ask?
”One is the soldiers who necromanced the abducted adventurers. Your pills helped?
”Oh, is that medicine? Necromancer pills, etc., and I thought you would demand rare pills...... You can really make him necrotize alive.”
”Because it was a simple ritual, it would be much less effective than it was in life.”
”Still, you could use it for meat walls, right?
”Mm-hmm. And it's the former Rank C Adventurers' Ghouls who will be the main force of war. I don't leave reason behind like we do, but the Lord only created it from his hands, and it's highly combative enough.”
”Hihihi. That sounds interesting. Still, it's weird that we're talking like this. Because there's reason left for you in the undead.”
”The gift of the power of my Lord and of the Virgin Mary. Demitris and Orrell will be loyal to them if they become undead.”
”Hihihihihihihi! Rank s adventurer undead must be awesome performance! Looking forward to it now!
”The decision is made the day after tomorrow. Orrell, the closing ceremony where Demitris is aligned. Aim there.”
”Got it. So suppose we adjust the dosage to the people of the Kingdom of Charles…”
”I know you do, but the Kingdom of Charles still has a use for it. This time, just make a scene, okay?
”I understand. For your country, the Kingdom of Charles is situated in a good place. If it is also possible to sandwich the Kingdom of Kranzel from the north to the south, the range of strategies will also be considerably wider. You can't throw it away here.”
”That's right. Now the king is a nearby man. The more he advances, the more he joins hands with years of hatred. I don't even know if that's our agent. Phyllis, the operation at Seedland failed, but it would have been enough if we had drawn in the Kingdom of Charles. There's as much to do.”
”But some of the nobles in the Kingdom of Charles seem rather dissatisfied, don't they? Some of these dispatched men are skeptical of the king's instructions as a puppet next door.”
”It's your job to get rid of them here.”
”I understand that.”
”Be ready by the operational decision.”
”There are so many poisons I want to try, aren't there? Which one shall I use?”
”Don't forget to use the men of the Kingdom of Charles to maneuver, do you?
”You know that too. But this is going to be fun...... hihihihi!
