Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 448

 

Conflict of Interest



I got a headache after hearing Tenrei's report.


"What's with-that! An attack of justice to protect Isalka!"


It seems that surrounding countries are capturing the people of Isalka one after another.


In the name of protection


How can they call it protection if they put iron shackles on the hands and feet of women and children and pull them with horses?


"No matter how you look at it, I think the purpose is not Isalka, but the process of making perfume."


I agree with Tenrei's guess.


Everyone is a piece of shit.


"Is it the same in other places?"


"There are some differences near the border, but not much. It's more like hell in the more heavily penetrated areas."


Some of the cities Tenrei investigated are even worse.


The Principality's Army, the Invading Army, the mobs that responded to the rebellion of the people with vitiligo, the vigilante groups, bandits, the Principality's citizens, and the Isalka people who have no intention of rebelling.


There is a killing spree between the 7 factions.


I can no longer tell who is a friend or enemy


They are killing their neighbors of yesterday for their own safety.


"I'd like to help... but..."


"You can't."


I was stopped by Wince


I know


If I leave here now, Baal will probably attack.


If he really has Five Eyes, he'll definitely come at the worst possible time.


"We have no choice but to endure until Yukikaze comes back."


"That’s the only option, damn it!"


Just as I am unable to hide my frustration, a young man from the Isalka tribe enters the tent.


"Chief!"


"What's wrong?"


"The Principality's army is coming this way!"




-------------




"Is that Marquis Murazuga's flag?"


Did they come to help us? No, they are not.


"There's murderous intent, I'll go respond. Wince."


"Please leave the protection to me."


I have a bad feeling about this.


So it's best if I handle it myself.




"Marquis, are you sure you don't want to defend your territory?"


"It's not something you need to worry about, Knight Commander."


He's smiling vulgarly


It's a look I've seen a long time ago


When was it?


...That's right, it's similar to the expression on that brat called Barbatt when he asked me to give Wince and the others to him.


"The current situation in the Principality is terrible."


"I guess."


"Don't you also want to protect the Isalka people and those you know?"


"You're going to help us?"


"It depends on your actions."


"Hoh? What should I do?"


"First, you must cut off your own head here."


"……Ha?"


"There are whispers within the principality that you instigated this commotion. No, there are rumors in the surrounding countries as well."


There is no way that this is true.


There's no way Tenrei would miss hearing something like that.


"Does the Marquis believe such rumors?"


"It is not a question of whether I believe them or not. If you are not condemned as a criminal, no one will put away their sword."


Well, no matter how you think about it, it's a lie


This guy probably has his own agenda and wants to kill me.


I need to find out...


"Don't worry about the Assistant to the Commander. I'll take good care of her."


Ah... is that the purpose?


As I heard those words, he looked at Wince in the distance.


No, he's licking her breasts and butt with his eyes.


"Your life will save everyone. That's not a bad deal, is it?"


"...Are you an idiot?"


"What? Did you just call me an idiot?"


"Are you having trouble hearing? Even though you are young."


"...All troops advance, kill everyone except that woman!"


Conflict of interest


I can't coexist with these guys.


Now, the number of enemies is about 1500.


If I leave it to Wince, the chief and the others won't be attacked.


1500 soldiers vs. me alone


I feel sorry for the soldiers, but I'll kill them without mercy.
