… The Capital of Dreams
… Bei, let alone any nobles
It was the city of row For that sake, there were remnants where old walls once stood
Abandoning the outer regions, the city’s residents retreated At the port were the figures oftheir own assets on their shi+ps in an attempt to flee
And at the port, various people who’d witnessed the barbarics of Bahnseim cried out for the shi+ps to let them on board
“Please let us on board!”
“It’s !”
“You’re inhuman!”
At the chaotic harbor, shi+ps lifted anchor one after the next Aht of their loads slanted and sunk to the depths So other shi+ps of the crowded harbor as well
The chaos of Beim was truly a depiction of chaos…

… Having left to the outside of the Guild’s East Branch, Tahnia equipped her own equip into the city
Holding a spear and shi+eld, she took their archer’s support fire as she rushed at the soldiers waiting for her Their expressions were fearful
“T-this woman…!!”
Not on the main street, they were a unit that moved aside to plunder They weren’t too nu to write hoth
“Too soft”
Running horizontally across the buildings, and dodging enemy fire, she landed in their formation Now that their forround
“W-what’s this!?”
“M-!”
The soldiers began rising, their legs bicycling intheir weapons, they didn’t have anywhere stable to plant the circles in place
To theer at her hip, and cut a line across their necks A force of a few tense ended with carotid rupture of their knights and soldiers Once no one was left round
Tahnia looked around with her mask on her face The fearful residents of Beim watched her from the alleys
“Flee froh this road, and head for the heart of Beim”
On those words, she dashed off again, racing across the buildings’ walls, cli Around she could see adventurers and soldier fighting But their resistance wasn’t unified They hadn’t anticipated a fight within the city
Tahnia looked around When she spotted Bahnseio and finish the, but they were of shallow experience; they were feeling the reverberations oftaken out by Lyle’s party
“Whatever the case, we can’t overturn our loss”
It wasn’t on a level where so could be done with individual ability, yet here was the land with so norant of war
All had eventually flowed towards negotiations with surrender in their field of visions But Tahnia’s eyes narrowed
The Beiotiate had their heads displayed on the main road Surely an indicator of Bahnseiotiations
“This is… so like this is! …!”
TahniaThose arrows that burrowed deep into the building’s roof were fired several at a time
The ones s were knights of Bahnseim
“Found one of those Sweeper fellows”
“You think this’ll earn us a bonus?”
“Cover me It’ll be troublesome if the small feudal lords are eaten up We’d best crush it quickly”
That party of three that looked at Tahnia as if she were only prey were clearly different fro on to that point Tahnia started off towards those three Skillholders, drawing a knife from her pouch
One of them knocked her knife aside with her sword, but the sword shattered The knight immediately discarded his hilt and took distance The knife pierced into a building’s roof and pierced through it
“It’s terribly heavy Is that her Skill? These guys really have all sorts of strange Skills”
The knight pulling out his spare dagger The knight poised with his bow Tahnia resolved herself beneath her mask
“I can’t let any Skillholders proceed passed this point”
On Tahnia’s words, the three knights smiled Tahnia had intended to leap the , but…
“The folks of Bei It’s true we’re Skillholders, but… it’s not like we’re particularly special or anything”
Tahnia watched the men as she took a step in
Using a Skill to hts were surprised by the speed of her lightened body, Tahnia used her weightened knife to cut through one sword-and-all
From her breastpocket, she produced a sack or iron, and held it aloft Tossing it right above the knight with the bow, it suddenly grew heavier, as small lumps of iron rained down on him
And the knight with the dagger approached to cut at her
“You’re quite the strong one”
“Kuh, and you’re quite carefree with your comrades taken out”
As the foe slashed at her consecutively, Tahnia parried
“Co but trouble to ht, and that damn cheeky brat… towas mutual”
Her foe’s power had increased, and no er cut through her mask
“What, you’ve got quite a cute face there”
But Tahnia was able to plant a kick in his abdoht had some piece of mind with his ar deeply into his flesh
Seeing her opponent spit blood, Tahnia sat on the spot As she confirmed there were no other enemies around
“I can’t fight for er”
Sheto return to the Guild…

South Beim
As I was reorganizing troops and doing paperwork in the office, a report came in from Monica Novem had come to the room as well, as a vital point had come
“We’ve already begun to encounterbeco but an orna the city’s center Fights are breaking out on the streets, and both Bahnseim and Beim have put out considerable casualties”
Putting both sides together, around four hundred thousand were clashi+ng Of course, thinking of pure fighting force, it was lower than that Even so, that both sides had burst into h about
“… They really plan to kill them all And it doesn’t see to put up resistance or flee”
And it didn’t feel as if they were buying tiht Even surrender wasn’t accepted In such a situation, Bei
Bahnseiet out unscathed either
Monica looked at me with a serious expression on her face
“It does not seeinally, they’d have lowered their heads to us, but the walls were breached before news of our victory could reach They are in chaos”
Beim was frailer than we had anticipated Based on how they went about it, they’d have even been capable ofBahnseiot a lesson on how fragile everything became when the top was brittle
The Third in the Jewel laughed a bit
『… It’s scorched earth When they could’ve just had all Beim’s people retreat somewhere in a few months, and taken off with all their food and wealth It’s true in next few years… no, five to ten, whatever the case, they’ll need soet back on their feet Bahnsei on with their plunder fro adventurers chose to hide out in the Labyrinth』
Unable to accoh food proble war potential, and lose control of its assets It’s true that was a valid way to go about it The Seventh nodded
『Well, it’s too late to speak of what ifs If it were s would cooperate, or prepare to defend alone I can only sigh at Beim, who chose not to depend on anyone, yet acted as if they weren’t thinking of defense at all』
The Third to that opinion
『To be honest, the ones who h』
He said and laughed
Novem looked at me
『Lyle-sama, what shall we do? Even if we abandon Beim like that, there is a possibility the armies of Bahnseim will make their way towards South Beim eventually』
