Vol 11 Chapter 214 (2/2)
After clearingboth , I could see the lu its structure
“You’re ood people! It’s not that this Lyle Walt is seducing anyone! When you get to o and fall of their own accord!”
After a little silence, the Third laughed out loud
『For his overconfidence to go this far, as expected of et seduced, if it fails, won’t it be fatal? And have you forgotten you’re regularly connected by line to Monica-chan and the others? They can determine your location instantly』
Right, just as I could tell their position, they could sense mine as well So even if I hid, and stayed silent, they’d come to find me If I told them, I think they’d listen to my orders, but that just wouldn’t be any fun
I had thought to test it out, so I decided to make use of this opportunity
I took out the sword I’d borrowed fro handed down by a skilled knight during the invasion of Selva, apparently
I smiled
“It’s fine If I use this, it’ll create an interference with the Jewel, and throw the line into disarray I can’t usually use Magic Tools, but tools are all about how you use them I can run ahenever I want FWAHAHAHA!!”
If you used a Magic Tool, it would interfere with the Jewel and disable it Because of that, I had never used the to have at a time like this
When I raised a grand laugh as I said that, the Third suddenly burst into a panic
『… Eh? Wait a second! In that case, on’t be able to watch mr lyle’s–』
The Seventh was also flustered
『Y-you can’t, Lyle! That s no joy to any of us! How about we think of a different means and…』
Milleia-san began scolding me
『Lyle, when the festival finally coet to enjoy it with everyone else Understood I’ll also assist, so how about you put the Magic Tool down, and talk things out? Look, if you just send your consciousness over to the Jewel for a bit, it’ll be over before you know it』
I’ic of persuasion too prevent ic Tool If it was Milleia-san, perhaps she would actually be able to pull it off, so I gave a laugh
“It’s too late! I, Lyle Walt… Have a principle of doing what I set out to do! I’ive in to threats! Well then, fare thee well!”
When I drew the blade, and flowed Mana in, the Skills bestowed on the metal activated, and interfered with the Jewel They both messed with one another, and the voices I could hear from the Jewel became broken and disconnected
At the end, the Fifth
『Not my… -blem…… -ore』
He said I continued pouring Mana into the sword, returning it to its scabbard as I flipped my hair
“What, I’ll be back in time for the main event, and I’ll release it these Just wait a little”
I muttered aware of the fact they couldn’t hear me
“You should really have patience once in a while, dear ancestors of mine”
Giving a grin, I exited the tent, and concealed ht seriously

… As both caer
Even when this was a farce of a war, it was still her brother’s first can She wanted to have Lyle by his side
Officially, they weren’t supposed to have any means to contact him, so as a front, they had to dispatch soue explanation, and all that was left was to wait for the man himself to arrive
Restless as she waited, Gracia looked over the inside of her tent as she awaited the return of er Miranda
As she couldn’t calht her irritated, as they hung their heads in silence
Leold tried to be tactful
“Gracia, even if you don’t puch such pressure on your surroundings… I’ht to their fullest”
Hearing those words, Gracia began putting on a play with him
“Hnorant of the battlefield When there could still be traitors a us, who can say when my head will be cut in my sleep I’ve said I would depend on the loyalty of everyone present today, but…”
Thinking over hoard it was to say such things to her cute little brother, Gracia continued acting, when Miranda returned to the tent Gracia sed down her joy, and took on an i attitude
“So you’ve come How has Rusworth replied?”
The lords all reer was about to say Miranda got onto a knee
“… Unable, is the reply”
Miranda couldn’t give a detailed explanation in this situation, so she just gave a brief relay of the result
As Gracia stood, she thought to herself
(What does he mean he’s unable!? He just has to show himself a little more on this side, does he not? Can’t he just care about me a little m… ait! Since he’s the person Elza likes, could it be she…)
Standing still, Gracia reain
“… Once o to Rusworth’s camp once more Everyone else, to your stations!”
Sending the lords back to their own armies, with only those concerned left in the tent, Gracia spoke
“Miranda-can, what do you !?”
As she approached Miranda as if to cling on to her, Miranda scratched her face with a finger
“No, um… they can’t find Lyle, it seems”
Gracia spoke immediately
“Wait, you said that autoet into contact with hi all units move to that side wasn’t part of the… it couldn’t be”
The worst possibility floated in her head A delusion of if Elza had noticed her feelings, and stolen Lyle away
“That biiitttccch!!”
When Gracia raised her voice, Leold frantically stepped on to soother her…
“Gracia, wait! There may be someone around! And he may have his own circumstances!”

… In Rusworth, the Valkyries fidgeted as they searched all through the camp
Monica was sitting, cradling her knees in Elza’s tent The line was cut, so she couldn’t supply herself fro sure not to take needless y So she remained on standby
But perhaps the individual herself wanted to go, as she wouldn’t stopto herself
“If I didn’t part fro his fever time, I’m a failure as a maid This Monica is no Monica God dammit… dammit all…”
Seeing Monica in a corner of the tent, staring at a support beah
“Just because you can’t get in contact for a bit? Lyle’s got considerable skill hiht, No… vem?”
When Aria looked at Nove to her side, she took a step back and took some distance
“… Eh? Did you say so? What could it be? Oh, do you happen to knohere Lyle-sao search for… no, but I’ve been ordered to stay… what should I do?”
Completely expressionless And a voice without any inflection, she wasn’t the usual Nove a bit, grasping the Forxuz House’s heirlooer than usual
Aria looked at Elza In the tent, sitting in her chair, Elza was also worrying for Lyle
“I tried to find hier person came for hi matches up too well”
Aria noticed Elza was acting strange, and was about to try lulling her ords he would return in no time, when she recalled her last conversation with the man
(Wait, just now, he… said he was just going to be watching, yet he was going to be busy)
Then isn’t this part of Lyle’s plan? She was about to bring that up, when Elza stood
“She did it That woman… come to think of it, her letter said she had someone she liked No ht! Pretending to send a er, she really snatched him away!”
As Elza worked herself up, Aria tried to say it wasn’t the case She tried
“There’s no way that’s true Miranda is our com—”
“—The possibility exists It’s Miranda-san, after all”
Novem quietly muttered Her usual discontentirl herself didn’t sound too mindful of what she had said But she couldn’t’ permit a situation where Lyle was unaccounted for, it seems
There, Elza grabbed a nearby staff, left the tent, and wrung out her voice
“Gather the generals at once! There’s been a change of plans I shall personally…”
After saying that much, a soldier raced over, and infor atmosphere
“E-Elza-saain…”
There stood Miranda behind the soldier
“Have you found Lyle yet? If possible, I’d like to take hiot circumstances of our own”
Aria leapt out of the tent, and looked at the er’s face But Elza turned her staff to Miranda
“When you’ve abducted Lyle-dono yourself, you have quite the nerve Go tell that woain to the end of this world I’ll have him snatched back”
On Elza’s procla at Aria Elza ienerals, and Nove
Miranda to Aria
“What happened? What do you mean Lyle isn’t here? And it sounds like she thinks I’m the one who took him”
Aria hurriedly tried to convey the present situation But the proble was Aria’s weak point After all, having heard her explanation, Miranda…
“… That wooes and does quite sos”
Seeing Miranda’s shoulders shake, Aria thought it was a mistake
“T-that’s wrong! Noveone I’m sure it’s because she’s…!”
But without listening to Aria’s explanations, Miranda turned, and headed for the horse she’s come one
And she spoke to Aria
“Go tell Noveot soo and find Lyle already… or could it be you’re in cahoots with that woman?”
Looking into Miranda’s eyes, Aria stepped back again, and shook her head Miranda smiled and spoke to Aria
“I see, that’s good You’re my friend, Aria I trust you won’t betray me”
Aria couldn’t take Miranda’s words at face value She was usually quite tactless, but looked at Miranda’s bloodthirsty smile, it’s not as if she could remain oblivious
That was a warning
Aria could understand that
(W-what are you going to do about this, Lyle~!)
On the verge of tears, Aria ran off to search for Lyle, who’d disappeared off somewhere…
