Mission No.4 Reunion (07)
“As you said, we have multiplied the guard tenfold…”
Isn’t that too much of an overkill? They wanted to talk like that. However, the soldier who couldn’t bring himself to speak out kept his mouth shut.
Soldiers who had been walking all night due to the call-up order had to be put on alert, so the dissatisfaction of the soldiers who were brought without hearing the reason was not the only one.
Of course, it’s the military who takes it out if it’s black, but it was a small protest to show the level of flexibility that is appropriate unless it’s a wartime situation.
But, of course, the commander of the guard, who dismissed such a voice as whining, handed over the newly written vigilance plan to the soldier in front of him.
It is an unspoken pressure to go to work or stand upright at the time of gossip.
“Anything special?”
“A strange light was found. It seems to be gone now, but I confirmed that it was wandering around here until 05:00 today.”
In fact, because of that light, the soldiers deployed throughout the principality were gathered together, so there was no reason to receive a report.
The guard chief concluded the action with a simple nod of the head.
“It is an order from Your Highness. If suspicious behavior is detected in the border area, arrest it unconditionally and send it to the inner city.”
“I will follow your orders.”

Ewald, who had been silently listening to Zelena’s explanation, finally opened his mouth.
“So you think so.”
When Ewald sorted out the situation, Zelena nodded as an answer.
However, despite Zelena’s lengthy explanation, Ewald continued to tilt her head.
“But you’re not sure anyway, are you?”
“It’s not like that. But I think it’s a plausible guess.”
“It makes sense.”
Even though one had the appearance of looking at his 60th birthday, and the other had the appearance of a young man who had just passed the terms and conditions, a strange scene was being created where honorifics were omitted without hesitation. I didn’t feel the slightest sense of incongruity with the sensations I’d already gotten used to.
Instead, passers-by just clicked their tongues, calling him a spoiled youngster.
Of course, it wasn’t even Ewald who would care about that kind of gaze.
Zelena had her say.
“But there’s no way to check right now.”
Ewald also nodded and agreed with Zelena.
“The biggest problem is that the guard troops are spread out so widely that we can’t figure out where the main location is.”
“Have you tried using magic?”
Of course. Ewald nodded his head.
Pioneer, who had been detecting mana as soon as she woke up from the night before, grunted and searched for the corner where the mana was concentrated, but she could not find her at all.
Even after searching in all directions, there was no trace of abnormally condensed mana.
Of course, Ebalt couldn’t use the tracking magic to chase mana.
“It feels like it has been covered with something else so that it cannot be traced. Since the traces that were so intense disappeared in less than a day, it would be the most reasonable inference that someone was hiding them.”
Currently, there was no way to track mana with magic.
“Besides, the results that Pionir checked tell a completely different story.”
“Oh, that emaciated wizard friend?”
The two people, who had been talking about it with the person right next to them, eventually came to an agreement.
Ewald spoke first.
“I’ll have to run on my feet after all.”
“Yes.”
“It would be better to go in directly if possible.”
“Of course. Because it always has been.”
“But will you be able to afford it?”
“Has there been a time or two when you have kids you can’t handle?”
Ewald grinned and moved his lips.
“But first, it’s my baby.”
“I like you, Ewald. When did you ever worry about the pups?”
“What are you talking about? Have I ever had a baby?”
But. Zelena nodded her head.
“… Oh, and that too.”
This time, Ewald poked Zelena’s side with his elbow.
“Well, don’t you have something in mind?”
“I won’t deny it, but are you okay?”
“I was chosen for that, but I have to use it.”
They are two people who speak incomprehensible words.
Ewald gave her a slight nod, and Zelena, out of nowhere, put her hood over her head and nodded her head.
And the eyes of the two people turned to the same person at the same time.
At the end of that gaze, Pionir was gazing into their eyes and slightly frowning.
“… I am very sorry and sorry, but what are you two looking at me for?”
Pioneer, who was fighting against the two powerful powers with a voice full of anxiety, had to watch Ewald and Zelena open their mouths at the same time.
“Interesting thoughts.”

“Majesty!”
Prince Yarkin Sarmus, ruler of the Principality of Sarmus, tilted his head as his soldiers dragged a man into his office.
“What’s going on?”
“Iza was going on a rampage!”
“A riot?”
Prince Jarkin Sarmus rose from his seat.
The man, completely bound and wearing a hood, knelt down with his long legs bent.
The guards, who had been forcibly pressing down on his back, slowly backed away and pointed their weapons at him.
“Take off the hood.”
“Yes!”
The hood came off roughly.
Under the hood, the man’s face was revealed with his eyes wide open in the sudden light.
It was Pionir.
“I, the Duke of Sarmus, ask you!”
A voice full of intimidation erupted from Yarkin.
“If you don’t answer the questions, I’ll let you know what pain is! Well…”
“Ah, yes, yes, sir. I came in, I came in.”
“… Do you understand?”
“Yes? No, ah, yes, yes You say that you are the king of Gong with your mouth?”
Usbel’s voice flowed from Fionir.
“Oh, do you? Does it smell like mana? Wait a minute. But is there such a thing here?”
The people who had looked puzzled at the lively and cute girl’s voice coming out of the sturdy young man’s mouth began to back away.
This young man is insane.
It was then.
“Oh, that one, that one.”
Pioneer’s gaze turned to one place.
His gaze landed on a small skull resting on the desk where the duke was sitting.
Fionir, who had let go of Usbel’s voice, opened her mouth with a smile like Usbel’s on his lips.
“Rúlla aftur.”
Shape restoration. As soon as the magic word that returned the deformed appearance to its original state was over, Fionir shrank.
The sight of a young man over 180 cm turned into a kid in an instant threw the duke’s office into chaos.
But the confusion was missing, and Usbel completed her magic ceremony with breakneck speed, raising her right hand and twisting the mana.
“Líkami blása!”
A window of light formed in front of Usbel’s eyes. Created almost in the twinkling of an eye, the spears shot towards their target without giving them time to recognize that they had appeared.
Quaggagak!
Usbel’s magic, which passed right next to the Duke, literally shredded all the furniture on the desk, and the desk and furniture that were completely in pieces flew in all directions.
People who were filling the office staggered in the shockwave that was close to a gale.
And Usu Bell, who took advantage of that opportunity to jump up from his seat, put his hands on his hips and smiled brightly with a proud smile.
“Found!”

“I found it!”
A mass of mana strong enough to thrill Ewald’s senses was felt on the other side.
Even if Fionir didn’t use magic, he couldn’t help but sense this amount of mana.
Even Fiornier had a dazed look at the amount of mana beyond common sense.
“Go first!”
Ewald took the lead.
As soon as Ewald, who had been hiding in the bushes, appeared in an open field, the sparsely placed soldiers of the Principality aimed their weapons at them, but that didn’t even come within Ewald’s field of vision anyway.
What stimulated Ewald’s sixth sense now was the mass of mana gathered to the point of madness.
“Spring!”
Without screaming, the soldiers blocking Ebalt’s path flew through the air.
When the once perforated border collapsed, countless soldiers appeared in front of Ebalt at once, no matter where they were hiding.
For an instant, Ewald abruptly stopped.
Bald, who had slipped on the ground due to the momentum of his run, raised his staggered body and glanced at the soldiers who started charging towards him.
About thirty people.
As soon as Ewald saw it, he turned to his left and ran like a shot.
“Follow me!”
The soldiers formed a precise formation and followed Ebalt in perfect order.
The dust of late spring was so thick that it rose from under the feet of the soldiers.
However, Ebalt gave up the thought of fighting them for a moment and ran towards the castle’s resistance while maintaining an amazing distance.
The soldiers in the direction of the castle drew their weapons in the same way when they found Ewald running fearlessly, hanging on to their comrades.
And Ewald moved his hand, spreading his index and middle fingers towards somewhere in his direction.
At that moment, the rest of the crew hiding in the bushes jumped out toward the empty space.
Most of the soldiers were in a hurry to follow Ewald, so they ran towards the building where only a few troops remained and lynched the soldiers who stood in their way.
The crew members, who had pushed the body of the soldier drooping away behind the sound of the secondary strike, waved their hands at Ewald and opened the door to the building overflowing with mana.
Ewald handles the outside and the rest handles the inside.
Fiornir took one last glance at Ewald, who was frighteningly working through his plan, and stepped into the building.
Ewald did not miss it either.
In an instant, surrounded by the two groups, Ewald stopped a second time.
The soldiers who were following behind and those who were holding out in front of them all pointed their weapons at Ewald at the same time.
At a cursory glance, there are more than fifty people.
Ebalt straightened his clothes, which had been crumpled from running, and slowly put his gloves on his hands, which he had draped over his waist, and turned around to look around him.
He had no hole to run through.
But he had no intention of running away.
With his gloves tightly pressed against his hands, Ebalt slowly looked around him, clenched his fists, and began to smile evilly.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
Ewald threw a refreshing word at the soldiers who glared at him with eyes asking if he would deal with this person alone.
“Call some more kids.”
* * *
“What are you doing! Moqueek a b*tch!”
After thrusting a sturdy fist into the face of the man who said that, Usbel made a graceful motion in the air and landed lightly on his seat.
“Some, some! Use your words well! Who is the mouth and who is the snout? Agari?”
I couldn’t understand what the heck he was saying.
However, the soldiers who judged that it was an unpleasant word surrounded the duke and confronted Usbel.
Despite the confrontation between Usbel and more than 20 people, the atmosphere was completely leaning toward Usbel.
The only problem is that the dukes and soldiers are concentrated near the exit.
Usbel put on a sullen expression and put his hands on his knees, sitting down and standing up as if warming up.
“Eulacha, Eulachacha!”
Loosen his back, loosen his side.
Usbel, who had relaxed all the muscles of his whole body with his stretching, uttered a fatal magic word as he closed his eyes slightly.
“Til bardaga.”
Usbel’s body was wrapped in black mist.
Only the sound of something breaking and crumbling leaked out of his gloomy, gloomy fog that swallowed up all the bright sunlight of the morning.
However, his performance disappeared as suddenly as it appeared.
The soldiers in complete confusion began to wander, but when his fog disappeared, Usbel, who had transformed into a complete battle body, slowly raised himself.
“Guys.”
Usbel’s eyes opened again and began to emit yellow light.
“Do you want to play with your sister?”
