#16 West (3)
Even if you try to turn away from cancer, you can’t make what happened.
In that respect, Edward’s choice was quite obvious.
With tears in his eyes, he receives the letter and reads it.
‘Oh, my handwriting is so neat.’
I think so.
That was the content of the letter.
“First of all, I am sorry for sending you such a sudden letter.
If my memory is not wrong, we must have met before.
This is Tyria from the Weebin Portman family.
Dear Edward Wight, Duke of Armin…
(syncopation)
… So, I want to be allowed to enter the West.
If it is not a big rudeness, please consider it positively.』
Quite long.
However, the meaning of the words conveyed in an honest handwriting that has been practiced for a long time according to the standard is concise.
-I’m Kasha’s wife, and it’s going to be a long way since I’m going to the west.
She is a very observant woman.
In fact, the only time they met while revealing their identities would be at that moment at Wibin Station, but they clearly grasp the superiority and inferiority of Kasha and themselves and make requests with an attitude appropriate to them.
Certainly she did her best.
The railroads in the West are now out of service.
It would have been possible to get to the meeting point from the east by rail, but it was no longer possible to borrow the power of public transportation.
Not only that.
“Aren’t there wagons trying to enter the war zone?”
“Yes, the battle is so intense that no one wants to come in. Isn’t it a problem from the inspection before that?”
“Yes, I guess.”
As the all-out war has been going on for a while, the coalition is devoting itself to finding the enemy’s spies.
There was no way they would let her through as an outsider.
“What would you like to do?”
“I don’t really know about this either.”
Edward let out a deep sigh.
Leaving aside everything else, Kasha is the problem.
“It seems that the elders will never tolerate it.”
It was clear from the several incidents he had experienced so far that the feelings he had for Tyria were not at a normal level.
Anyway, wasn’t there a moment when the sword demon Kasha suddenly turned into a mild sheep?
When he left, he treated her coldly and made a face like he was about to die all the way west.
To bring such a woman to the battlefield?
The moment Kasha finds out about this, his friendship stake is… .
“Oh, I don’t even want to think about it.”
It feels like goosebumps all over your body.
Edward shuddered and rose from his seat.
“I can’t leave it at the reception area for now, so let’s go and convince him. fill up right away Oh, and don’t tell anyone about this… .”
“Don’t tell me what?”
Suddenly, the bodies of Edward and the secretary trembled.
A familiar woman’s voice, and presence.
With a creak, the heads of the two men turned toward the entrance at the same time.
Standing there was Ygret Valentia, smiling broadly.
“What are you talking about so secretly? reel? Isn’t that Portman’s seal? Ho, is there a letter from him?! Why only you!!!”
Excitement began to seep over her face.
Edward gently closed his eyes.
‘You’re sick, really.’
Why are you getting caught by this person?
*
The journey to Tyria to the western reception area was not easy, even jokingly.
It was natural.
“after… .”
“Madam, are you still not feeling well?”
“… It’s fine now. Thank you for your concern.”
It’s because of the terrible train sickness.
It wasn’t just a level of denial.
Last winter, I was on my way to the capital with Elric when I got into a terrorist accident on the first train.
It’s a situation where there is no worry inside, but this time, I had to get off the train for about five days.
Even that was impossible, so if you rode the train for a day, you had to get off and rest.
In the end, it took 10 days to reach the interview site.
However, even though the suffering is over, the nightmare is not over.
The nausea from the moment he was on the train still lingered inside and continued to torment Tyria.
“Madam, if you are tired, you will go out of the station… .”
Danal had been cautiously recommending it, but Tyria shook her head.
I am now in the reception room at the station.
The moment I revealed my identity, EW staff came forward to guide me.
Apart from safety, I had to be here so that I could respond to Edward right away when he came.
it was impatience.
Impatience that I couldn’t waste more time because I delayed this time.
“The later I am, the longer the householder will be on the battlefield.”
Tyria’s expression was very dark.
What made it so was the newspaper on the table.
『The fall of Fort Tandal, this time, the main character was Kasha.』
It is a newspaper containing his last travels.
Tandal Fortress was a famous western strategic point that even Tyria, who had never left Perdin, knew about.
I tried to siege a place like that.
It was hard for Tyria to even imagine how terrible the battle would have been.
“You don’t need to worry about that person… .”
Danal muttered, but Tyria was not in the mood to listen.
The closer I got to him, the more the tumult inside me grew stronger.
‘Are you really going to die here?’
Ask questions that won’t be answered.
So, I try to gauge his intentions.
He’s a stupid person who doesn’t even think of trying to talk.
I’m just a person who thinks that everything will work out if I sacrifice myself.
It is not difficult to know that he is devoting himself to this war to prove that Wee Bin will not do anything dangerous and that there is no reason to attack Wee Bin because of a person named Kasha.
Tyria’s teeth clenched.
‘I will never make it that way.’
I had to say everything I couldn’t say.
I just wanted to talk to him and convey each other’s sincerity inside.
Tyria believed that the memories of the past half year were not lies.
I wanted to believe that he must have a similar mindset, and that’s why he left so coldly.
When it’s all over, I’ll grab the earlobe and take him to Weibin.
If not, I will take care of him until the end of the war.
‘Don’t think bad thoughts.’
Tyria pushed herself.
Such a moment was in full swing.
click-
“The president has arrived.”
Tyria jumped up at the staff’s words.
And look outside the door.
“… hmm?”
A question floated over Tyria’s face.
“Thank you for coming a long way!”
Beside Edward, who bent his back at 90 degrees, was a man with a fairly familiar body.
“Oh, long time no see!”
Even the voice is familiar.
That was the reason that shocked Tyria.
“Chloride… sir?”
“I, you remembered me… !”
Ygret covered her mouth with her hand and wept.
Tyria became confused.
*
Yes, it is quite possible.
Chlorinated Ygret Valentia was a woman who clashed with Elric several times in the West.
You can tell that just by looking at the newspaper.
Not only that.
He had admitted that it was Ygret who had the most frequent battles with Kasha.
In fact, even after everything was revealed, it was a strange situation that I couldn’t connect the wizard who came to Wibin with Ygret.
At the thought of taking Elric, I hadn’t even thought of her.
Anyway, the atmosphere in the drawing room where the three of them were gathered was awkward.
“Haha, you went through a lot on the way.”
Edward cautiously hurried on.
“The letter was well received. I want you to take me to the battlefield… .”
Anxiety bloomed on his face.
understood.
Because that’s good enough.
How could he take a woman without combat skills to that dangerous battlefield?
It would be even more unacceptable from his point of view, an acquaintance of Elric.
However, even Tyria could not yield.
“please. I really need to meet the family head.”
As I carefully lowered my head, a response came out from somewhere else.
“You say you’re sorry!”
From noble mtl dot com
slap!
“100 million!”
Ygret slapped Edward on the back.
“Who are you to make him lower his head?!”
Tyria narrowed her eyes.
I met Ygret’s eyes for a moment, but she shuddered and turned her head away with her cheeks blushing.
‘favor… is it?’
It was quite difficult to grasp her intentions as she was the type of person I had never met before.
The only thing that comes to mind is the judgment that she is the one who agrees with his opinion.
If so, you should use it.
Tyria made a quick judgment and said.
“I will make a case for it. As much as it is my stubbornness, I can promise that even if there is a problem, there will never be any damage. So please.”
The words went to Edward, but words that Ygret could sympathize with.
Tyria was originally a person educated in aristocratic speech and behavior.
It is possible to weave a purpose in words, and also a willingness to trade and a compromise point naturally.
Ygret, thankfully, reacted as expected.
“Hey, why don’t you say you’ll find out sooner?”
I’ll have to thank her in some form later.
Tyria was thinking about that.
“That’s too much… .”
“yes?”
“I want to meet you, but I can’t.”
For a moment, Tyria’s heart skipped a beat.
Because it stimulated some very ominous imagination.
Perhaps it was a mistake, his words were different from Tyria’s imagination.
“We are in a place where we cannot go. You’re looking at something else.”
“What if it’s a job?”
The relief was short-lived.
“… He is on his way to Nazak. It looks like you made a deal with the demon king.”
Tyria’s mouth opened blankly.
“Nazak… ?”
“Yes, that undead land.”
Tyria imagined a gloomy land where corpses roamed.
I imagined Elric in it.
So it had a reaction.
staggering-
“No, madam!”
“oh! hey! doctor! call the doctor! hurry!”
Tyria passed out.
She was a person with no tolerance for grossness or cruelty.
