Reverse Chapter 80 - (Chapter 143): Reverse 80

by DarkSilencer, 4 days ago Personal Journal

Well this chapter only took like a week to finish...I really don't like trying to do stuff relating to dark elf society, too many weird ass terms and people who refer to themselves gender neutral so I can't tell whether half of them are men or women. At least this was the longest of the Miduchi Reverse chapters so the rest are a bit easier... Next chapter in 3-6 hours.


Year 7444, Month 5, Day 28


"..Nn..Then, I need to start pretty soon"and, I need to fix my language as well.."

Lilus whispers that and used magic. It's an action that will reduce her amount of time remaining in the present world but it's not like she'll really die. She's just temporarily moving over to a different dimension {Other.Plane}. She'll spend a period of time there and then come back. Even she doesn't know how much time will have passed when she returns over here. A few years, a few decades, or over one hundred years.

With a smile that could be considered self-derision on her face she started mumbling about something after using magic.

The magic she's using right now is {Instruction}. It has the condition of the side receiving the orders undergoing a special ceremony first but other than that it's an extremely convenient magic. Of course the caster can freely select the target matching the conditions. It's fine if the target is just one person or even multiple people. This time 10 people were selected as the targets.

"I wonder if this is fine..it would be good if they properly take care of things while I'm gone though..since it's my first time as well..if I say anything too attentive and they might be troubled..Ah, I'm looking forward to what the town will look like when I return..after that is..just in case I guess that's necessary as well.."

How to avoid the regulations, whether there's any loopholes to it, Lilus held her finger to lip for a short period while thinking and used magic another couple of times.

And then, with a slightly satisfied smile on her face she closed her eyes.

Several days later, in the Queen's bedroom of the depths of the palace in Lail Kingdom, leaving just the hole where it's masters legs were rooted the room was empty. Leaving all of the valuable treasures and expensive various types of items in place, the room was left just to quietly wait for the return of it's master.



...............



Year 7444, Month 5, Day 28


Lail Kingdom claims an enormous tunnel beneath Mount Kinru as it's territory. In their sole capital of Erurehei it's always dark. Of course there's lighting tools that make use of magic stones here and there but it's a number far too few to light up all of Erurehei and the wasting of magic stones is strictly forbidden. It's not unusual for the lighting tools that are for the purpose of street lights aren't actually lit up. The buildings are mostly made up of dirt and stone walls that were gathered from the enormous tunnel and since it doesn't rain the roofs are made by just stretching a cloth over top.

Erurehei is a capital made by digging a tunnel in the mountains but since their population isn't all that many, there is some leeway in space. Though that's the case, the average family lives together with 7-8 people in a building with three rooms and total area of about 30 square meters. If there's a member of the warrior rank in the family then it's slightly easier for them to be allocated a a bit larger building.

Also, it's something that almost never occurs but among the small number of families that marry and are allowed to start a new household they're allocated a cramped house with an equally less amount of rooms.

In that sort of environment, the comparatively splendid building(of all things it doesn't use cloth but has an actual roof) excluding the palace that is the government building, the young elder Fantodu was taking care of paperwork in the luxurious 10 square meter individual office room when he quickly reacted to the voice echoing through his head, jumping to his feet and prostrating himself in the direction of the palace. It's an instruction from her majesty the Queen that is said to occur at a high pace when it's once in every 10 years or so. Fantodu remained prostrate for a short while and after the voice echoing in his head was finished he stood up. It's necessary to discuss the instructions with the other elders and start making adjustments to execute the details right away.

After leaving his office room in the government building Fantodu went to the meeting room in order to discuss with the other elders. There were already five other elders seated in the meeting room and he was the sixth person. The remaining four should arrive shortly as well.

The other senior elders that were already seated can't hide the excitement from their expressions. Though they aren't trying to hide it either. That's the same for himself. It was a direct instruction from her majesty the Queen that you may or may not hear even once in your life as a part of the lineage of elders. Furthermore, the instructions this time were concrete and above all else the amount of time they heard her majesty's voice was quite long compared to what was heard from previous senior elders.

The prime elder who's in their 10th year as an elder this year, Elder Webundo took over as speaker and after everyone had gathered started to speak.

"Everyone, it was great of you to gather like this without anyone saying anything. I'm grateful. I'm sure everyone has already heard but the divine orders have been handed out from her majesty Lilus. From here on out, we should move to allocating duties in order to accomplish the divine orders." 

Everyone nodded while looking at Webundo. The only thing reflected in their faces was the delight of being able to execute a direct order from her majesty the Queen.

"Starting off with the first order, in regards to increasing the amount of edible fungus. Just as her majesty stated if we can't increase the production rate by 2% within one year then no matter how long passes our population won't increase. We need reports and ideas for improvements..


.

..And also, the training of each rank of warriors. Rank 1 is fine but wasn't there worry that the quality of ranks 2 and 3 are falling..This year there's already been two casualties among rank 3. Certainly you could say it's an alarming problem."

"However, one of the two was caught up in a cave-in while checking on the construction of a new tunnel and the other one was from an attack by ogres while escorting the acquisition ranking during sales!? It was reported that there was an ogre mage mixed in with them as well...I actually found it admirable they managed to restrain it to just that much damage."

Fantodu who has the role who managing the missions of the warrior rankings objected. It's where he would prefer if Yoretto his senior that's of the same warrior ranking and in charge of military and public orders to back him up in the argument. He continued,

"I think it would be difficult to raise the abilities of the warrior ranking anymore than this but.."

And said some complaints. Hearing that Yoretto,

"Then the one who should be criticized for that is the one who was leading the escorts during that sale. Who was it at that time..Ah, Chizumagurol huh..So that was her first escort mission huh? If they're lacking in experience then I'm sure there's failure as well."

And said while forsaking her. Fantodu couldn't endure those details and tone of voice. Fantodu is still before his 30s, since he just entered as an elder this year and was the youngest of the elders so he thought he should restrain himself but he couldn't help but open his mouth to object. In the first place that wasn't Chizumagurol's first escort mission. If it was her first then she should have been escorting along the fixed route where ogres don't appear. 

"Yoretto-dono, what in the world does that mean? Are you saying we should let rank 1 warrior class Chizumagurol take the punishment for that? She was the only rank 1 from the iwaganeeresade 68 period. Even if that wasn't the case there's only a mere 29 rank 1 warriors who are still active duty. I'd like to avoid pointlessly crushing her."

I wonder what in the world this person is saying, or at least thinking that I couldn't endure it.

"Fantodu, do you not think that letting one rank 1 take the blame and tightening the discipline of ranks 2 and 3 which have far higher numbers is an effective way of thinking about it? Certainly, her majesty Lilus stated that rank 1 was fine. However, wasn't it ranks 2 and 3 that she was worrying about? In the first place, aren't the rank 1 warrior class just assassins that can use all elemental magic. It's not like they're particularly special either. A misunderstanding from the number mixed into their classification..Oh, I don't intend to criticize something that her majesty decided but.."

Hearing these words of Yoretto, Fantodu thought,

(You're just saying those things because you couldn't even become a rank 3 warrior class though..)

and was displeased with his thoughts.

Certainly the elders are an exception but Yoretto joined the course for cultivating the warrior class during his childhood. Since Yoretto has an older brother above him, that older brother was believed to become the elder. Unfortunately Yoretto's aptitude towards magic techniques was low and he was only able to acquire one elemental magic. For that reason, he only experienced a short two years of training and was removed from the warrior class training course, it was believed that he would spend the rest of his life as a part of the service ranking.

However, just before Yoretto turned into an adult, his five year older brother that hadn't become an elder yet ended up being poisoned by a monster while inspecting the surrounding territories for the rank 3 warrior class and passed and away. He hadn't experienced being an elder, in order for someone to become an elder they normally start training at the side of an active elder from just before the turn into adult around age 13, and it's been customary to perform training to become an elder in the future but the elder his older brother was with just happened to be performing an inspection that day and since Yoretto's older brother was there when the monster suddenly attack he ended up being poisoned, it was completely an unfortunate accident.

However, Yoretto was ashamed of the fact that he wasn't even able to become a rank 3 warrior and ever since then would harshly criticize the warrior classes. The period he became an elder was in his mid-40s but from the start he strongly volunteered to be in charge of the warrior classes.

Fantodu replied with all he wanted to say and decided to compete from a different dispute point. He already knew that it's rude to interrupt while the other person is still talking but while he's an older senior, publicly they're elders of the same position. It won't be considered impolite so easily.

"The rank 1 warrior class which we've invested budget, time, and starting with excellent instructors a large number of people into is a treasure of our country. And also, the warrior class is the only existence we have to earn foreign currency. That so easily.."

While Fantodu was desperately objecting to it Yoretto opened his mouth from the side.

"I can't imagine that there's a very big difference in abilities between rank 1 and rank 3 warriors though. It's just a matter of them being able to use a few more spells right? I don't think it's something to be so concerned over.."

This isn't the truth. Certainly the initial training lifestyle including rank 2 and 3 warrior classes all receive a training curriculum closely covering drills over magic and close combat techniques. However, there's a large gap between the absolute amount of time spent training. Holidays are different but they only train for roughly 5 hours a day. Of that training starts 6 in the morning and the magic lecture only last for about 1 hour, 4 hours after the start of the training at 10 am. After the lecture they're quickly made to exhaust their mana and before they go to sleep they eat an early lunch and then sleep for about 4 hours before returning to their houses.

However, once they switch over to the rank 1 warrior training curriculum, they fundamentally live in a dormitory other than holidays. Since a single days training time stretches out to 16 hours. Of the entire training time the magic lectures only take up around 4 hours and the remaining 12 hours is harsh combat technique training that's like hell. The amount of time they have to sleep is from around midnight until 6 am. All time other than that is spent in training with instructors that have three shifts and don't quite make it to man to man but it's time spent undergoing extremely deep training. It's often that the instructors are former veteran rank 1 warrior class people who retired.

In regards to chances for live combat after being assigned a position rather than ranks 1 or 2, rank 3 warriors end up with overwhelmingly more chances to combat and defeat monsters while patrolling the territory so it's not completely different from reality that one might think rank 3 is far higher in abilities from a glance though...

After seeing the debate start to go into a circle the speaker Webundo opened their mouth.

"It's already fine, there's things that should be taken into consideration for both of your remarks. It exceeds my duties but I'll add my own views to this. We'll have Chizumagurol herself who acted as the leader undergo a hearing and then it's fine if we decide for ourselves whether the decisions of her command were proper. We'll have the head warriors of each ranking participate and take their opinions as reference as well. Is Chizumagurol in Erurehei?"

Fantodu replies to Webundo's question.

"Currently Chizumagurol is independently on a type 4 headpiece mission. I believe she's in the dungeon of Baldukk in the Kingdom of Rombert right now.."

Yoretto supplemented that reply.

"Type 4 headpiece is the assassination of a low ranking noble. It's necessary for the target do die an accidental death or take the shape that the surroundings don't believe it was an assassination."

"I already know something like that. And, when is the deadline until?"

When Webundo asked again Fantodu replied again. 

"Since it's six months after we accepted the job so..Through the end of July."

"Do you think she'll succeed?"

"..The target is the son of a Marquis of Kanbitto and an adventurer. I'm sure they have allies as well and it seems they'll be in the dungeon of Baldukk so..Monsters will appear as well..I can't help but say it will be quite difficult."

Even then Fantodu had already decided that Chizumagurol would be able to do it. It was an expression with confidence.

"What's the compensation?"

"15,000,000 Z. Of course we've already received the payment in advance."

Hearing that Yoretto snorted with his nose and ridiculed as he said.

"Hmph, just that much huh? Our countries foreign currency income reaches 20,000,000,000 Z. Of that what the rank 1 warrior class is earning is just a mere 6-7%, on average it's no more than 1,300,000,000 Z. It's 500,000,000 Z more than the amount we make from sale of surplus magic stones but...Regardless the yearly budget for cultivating the warrior classes exceeds 3,000,000,000 Z. The majority of our countries income is earned by the acquisition rankings selling crops that the service rankings are producing. Since it's this occasion, I think we should cut the training costs for all of the warrior rankings from rank 1 to rank 3. There's 29 rank 1, 48 rank 2, and when it comes to rank 3 there's even 193 active duty members you know. That's a total of 270 people. If we cut all of the classes by about 20% and sent them around to the service ranking wouldn't we earn far more?"

There Fantodu(why does Yoretto-dono see the warriors as enemies to that extent?) held such doubts once again. Since he started as an elder this year, he's held pride in his first job of governing the countries military affairs and the warrior classes that oversee the public order.

However, Yoretto has his own expectations as well. Of course, if he were to say he doesn't hold feelings of inferiority towards the warrior class rankings, then that would be a lie. However, rather than that what he's thinking about is the financial expansion of Lail Kingdom. Taking the numbers from just now as an example and among the rank 1 warrior class about 10 of those are always acting as the escort leaders of caravans for the merchants. Just the same there's around 10 from rank 2 as well and 80 or so from rank 3 are always acting as escorts as they act away from the country. This is something that can't be helped.

Of the remaining 15 rank 1 warriors, roughly 35 rank 2 warriors, and over 100 rank 3 warriors, isn't the only ones absolutely necessary roughly 30 of those from rank 2 warrior class to act as gatekeepers and 12-13 groups of 5 rank 3 warrior classes, roughly 60-70 people for patrolling inside of the territory? If you think about rest then it's fine to be a bit more. Of course, while there's few of them even the rank 1 warrior class earns some foreign currency so around 10 would be necessary.

Incidentally, in regards to labor costs, the rank 1 warrior class costs a yearly average of around 8,000,000 Z and that's over double the cost of the elders. It drops sharply at rank 2 and is around just 1,800,000 Z. When it comes to rank 3 it settles around 1,200,000 Z. However, in the case of the service ranking, the average annual income is around 600,000 - 700,000 Z. You could say it's an income that's only feasible in Lail Kingdom which is almost completely self-sufficient. What they purchase mainly consists of clothing, weapons, and various metal products and there's a small portion of luxury and hobby goods but those are extremely limited.

In Yoretto's opinion, he wants to increase the income from the service ranking which makes up the majority of the population by even 1 Z. Just by increasing the disposable income potential by that much increases the money in the country and increases the scale of the economy. For that sake it's necessary to increase the size of the production base but he's read that if they were to move strong adults from the warrior ranking to the service ranking then they would be able to increase production beyond just the number moved. After all, the fate of the 3,842 people of Lail Kingdom are guided by just these 10 elders. Having the warriors who have leeway in their strength dig out tunnels, take the allotment of physical work, and increase the seedbeds for fungi directly connects to an important increase in production.

By saying that he had such intentions in his chest and acted as the supervisor of the warrior rankings.

"Yoretto, leave things around there. If the views of you two are different then that's something all of us will decide on. We'll wait for Chizumagurol's return and have the leader at the time of the escort once again report to us. If on top of that the blame is with Chizumagurol then we'll have her take responsibility. However.."

Webundo's discussion still hasn't ended.

""However?""

And Fantodu and Yoretto raise their voices to get urging a continuation.

"I find it difficult to think that the members of the rank 1 warrior class are that inferior. Prior to Yoretto becoming an elder I've taken charge of the warrior ranking before as well so I intend to know a reasonable amount. All of them are extremely loyal towards our country Lail Kingdom and in possession of extraordinary abilities...Fumu..Since this is the final topic on our agenda, there should be no need to worry about time. Call for Zageruforu."

Zageruforu's full name is Edomarin.Zageruforu and is the current head of the rank 1 warrior class and is a veteran warrior that's 35 years old this year. With beautiful white hair almost like snow, skin that is deep purple almost completely black in color, and eyes that have a suspicious lavender glow to them, he's the ideal Dark Elf. Obviously, his abilities as a warrior are suitably high as well.

In about 10 minutes Zageruforu appeared in the meeting room. Even though he's not on a mission he has his leather corset armor that's dyed deep blue on and is wearing his short mantle that goes down about half of his back.
He's taller than the average dark elf at 185 cm and is quite the big man.

"All elders, I have appeared before you as you have requested."

After Zageruforu said that greeting them Webundo called out to him.

"Zageruforu, we were thinking we'd like to have you explain things about the rank 1 warrior class Chizumagurol. Explain to everyone about Chizumagurol. Since we don't want to give you any preconceived notions we'll explain the reason after. First off, we want to hear an explanation with no reservations."

Being ordered be an elder that's in their last year of office, Zageruforu opened his attractive lips.

"Ha...Chizumaguorl is my..Yeah, since I was from the uzuuroboride 97th period so..she's a woman that graduated the education training process 19 periods my junior as a member of the iwaganeeresade 68th period and two years prior was official appointed. If I remember correctly during the education training process she was always at the top. Up until now she's had independent missions twice and cooperative missions three times, escort missions..if I'm remembering correctly she's accomplished them about six times. Among those, one cooperative mission and two escort missions were while she was an apprentice. There was nothing that could be considered a mistake her work...
Her personality is introverted and she prefers to be alone but this is believed to be as a result of her first independent assassination mission clashing with a member of her same class who she ended up having to kill. Nevertheless, she hasn't had any difficulties in her jobs up until now. Her abilities with spells are just a bit above average, I guess you could say. Though that includes a note of taking into consideration her current age of 16 years old though. Since her void magic is level 5, it's around there I'm sure.
Also, she's enthusiastic when it comes to training and is never negligent in her training even when off duty. Her normal close combat abilities are reasonably good but due to problems in experience as well, she's still a bit below the average of the rank 1 warrior class. In regards to the crucial assassination techniques she's plenty skilled and already above average. Of course, she still isn't at my level though.
Furthermore, it's believed that the majority of her compensation are being used for medicine for her older brother with a weak constitution and the person herself lives a lifestyle with just the bare minimum equipment. I think she's a good young lady with filial piety towards her older brother. Well, her hair is black and her skin color is light so she's not to my preference and I wouldn't think of putting a hand on her."

Hearing Zageruforu's explanation Webundo said a bit surprised.

"Ho, that's a considerably high evaluation. And also, so Chizumagurol was still 16 huh..Ah, you did say the 68th period of iwaganeeresade."

The other elders are exchanging glances and talking in a whisper as well.

"Umm, is there something with Chizumagurol..."

Zageruforu asked timidly.

"Umu, it's about the incident where Chizumagurol was acting as the escort leader and one of the rank 3 warriors lost their life, an opinion has come out to have her the commander take the blame for lacking in ability so.."

Hearing that reply from Webundo, Zageruforu said in a panic.

"Wha...What are you saying!? I've properly received a report on the details but that was an inevitable situation! They were attacked by a group of ogres while passing through a valley!? An ogre mage was included in them and there was a total of 5 ogres!? Even when it comes to the might warriors of the rank 1 warrior class, it's not a situation that can be settled without any damage. That time, Chizumagurol's elemental magic levels had only just reached level 4 and she could only use arrow type spells plenty, it should have taken close to 5 seconds for her to active Javelin. Let alone that for her to use Arbalest she would have required several minutes! In sort of situation she has to protect the load, her subordinates, and the members of the acquisition ranking!? Even her subordinates were only at the level where the skilled ones could somehow use Javelin! Also, there was no damage done to the essential load or the members of the acquisition ranking!"

In response Yoretto laughed scornfully while saying.

"Fumu. A mighty warrior huh? However, if she ends up taking damage from just 5 ogres then isn't she nothing special at all? Aren't you treating the rank 1 warrior class as too special? If you look at them as warriors, there's no big difference between 1, 2, or let alone 3 right?"

Hearing that Zageruforu's eyebrows went into a frown as he objected.

"Yoretto-dono, what are you saying! Certainly calling them mighty warriors might be exaggerating but normally escorts are performed with two warriors. Since it seems that in the past there was no rankings to the warriors so you could change it to say that it wouldn't be incorrect for there to be two rank 1 warriors. If we were to follow in that example then one rank 1 warrior is equal to a single rank 2 warrior leading six rank 3 warriors.
If it's just that much then they can fight them sufficiently! There's that much of a gap between their abilities! That's why they're rank 1!"

There's probably exaggeration included in these remarks. No matter how skilled of a person they are, there's no way they could match up to seven opponents who have received decent combat training. If they give their best then one person and put in some desperate effort you could say it would be a good performance for them to bring two of them down with them. If you think about it with common sense it's normal to think the side with seven people will take no damage.

However, Zageruforu thought (This complete amateur who doesn't even know how strong just one ogre is!), while objecting in retort to the inflammatory words. It was a big failure.

"Ho? Head warrior Zageruforu. If you're going to say that much then how about we prove it? You said that Chizumagurol was of the 68th iwaganeeresade period right. Well then, just as you said she should be able to win against one rank 2 warrior and six rank 3 warriors from the same iwaganeeresade 68th period right? Of course I'm sure it would be difficult to gather them with just members of the iwaganeeresade 68th period. It's fine if you mix in some members from Jorounefiridi 124th period and taranchurarikosa 80th period as well."

Hearing that starting with Zageruforu, the other elders stirred as well.

"Wha!? Do you intend to make dark elves perform a death match with each other over a reason like that!? Are you go crazy!?"
"Yoretto, are you, sane?"
"Something like that, isn't that just uselessly decreasing our countries forces!"
"How foolish, no matter how you think about it one versus seven wouldn't be a proper match."

While indifferently waiting for those jeers to pass by Yoretto opened his mouth to reply.

"..Of course, something like a death match is outrageous. It's a practice match. Since they'll use real weapons I'm sure there will be some injuries though. Going to the extent of taking lives over something like this, that itself is nonsense. If the one known as Chizumagurol is superior then that's fine, it's fine if we just have them suspend it right away. If that isn't the case then it's just a matter of fighting until she can't move anymore before stopping. However, in that case, my remarks from just now should pass and she should cut the number of warriors by 20% from rank 1 to rank 3 and send them around to the service ranking, we should be aiming for an increase in production to food."

Hearing that Fantodu objected.

"That itself has no relation at all. Just because a rank 1 loses in a fight against seven people we decrease the number of warriors? I don't understand the meaning. I don't think that her majesty's feelings are something like that though. In the first place wouldn't that end up reducing our forces for the Royal Road Paradise Construction Project!"

"Fantodu, I understand what you want to say. However, isn't using her majesty's feelings as a comparison cowardly. Of course, with my humble abilities it's difficult for me to guess her majesty's thoughts. But, her majesty mentioned it. In preparation for the time that comes, the country, particularly increase the food production. Earn money and make the economy more robust, like that. Our countries doesn't have surplus in population. Where would it be good to pull out that manual labor power from? The warrior classes have plenty of stamina as well. They can even use magic. Obviously I have no intention of saying something so foolish as all of them. Even if it's just taking 20% of those with the lowest level of skill from each ranking, we could greatly increase the speed of expanding the tunnels and with just that we can increase our production rates."

Yoretto indifferently replied. Putting it frankly it's close to an absurd reason. Even he understands the importance of the warrior classes plenty. However, there's not enough people. There's no money. Even the her majesty Lilus said this. "My children, the time of the Royal Road Paradise Construction Plan is close. Make preparations. Make food, circulate money, give birth, increase." Well, content at that level is almost close to a preface. Whenever there's an {Instruction} those are the first words they're generally told. However, this time just the usual one or two words of instruction wasn't enough. After the usual words from just now she normally ends things with a line like "put priority on expanding the 22nd tunnel."

However, this time there was even more details and they covered a variety of subjects.

Certainly included in that there were the words, "Rank 1 is..fine. Deal with the drop in quality for ranks 2 and 3." as well. Yoretto was thinking of "dealing" with the drop un quality of the warriors by including them into the service ranking. If the remaining warriors brace themselves and make efforts in their training, as a result the quality should increase. If it's for that sake then just a single sacrifice {scapegoat} from the rank 1 then I'm sure there's no problem and just thought like that. Additionally he can harass the members of the rank 1 warrior class that are paid a high salary just because their abilities are only a bit higher.

In comparison starting with Fantodu the other elders were thinking of taking a look at the time required for training and revising the details, also taking another look at the curriculum for the education training process in order to "deal" with it.

Neither of them are largely mistaken.

Yoretto is hoping that the rank 2 and 3 warriors cooperating to defeat a rank 1 warrior will connect to an increase in confidence and their training after that will reach greater heights. Of course it's not as if he just simply hates rank 1. It's certainly true that their abilities are high and even Yoretto recognizes that. However, he thinks that they should make use of this chance to reduce their wages a bit more as well. Half is going too far but if they can reduce it to an average of 2,000,000 Z then that will leave 60,000,000 Z to float. They can increase the annual income of the service ranking by 20,000 Z per person for that portion. Certainly the amount of foreign currency that can be earned in their lifetime is overwhelmingly higher for the rank 1 warrior class. It's fine that their compensation is higher than the elders as well. However, he's always thought that isn't it just a bit too much.

Also, while it's just one or two people every few years but he loathes the people who choose to leave Erurehei and live outside of the country as well. Those sorts of people are largely made up of the former warrior classes. While they're in the outside world as escorts they end up feeling the appeal of other countries than Lail Kingdom. This is believed to be an alarming problem as well.

However, included in her majesty Lilus's words today was "Don't follow those who leave and just let them be free." as well. That's why for now they have no intention of saying anything about the people who leave the country.

However, things that are necessary for the Kingdom, things that they believe are necessary must be asserted.
Every chance that can be used should be used.



....................



Year 7444, Month 6, Day 1

Fantodu and Yoretto were giving out instruction to the seven people lined up in front of them.

"..For that reason, you should always remain on guard as you carry out your decisions. Other than those who have this mark tied on them don't let them pass the fourth checkpoint. Capture them alive. However, caravans are different. Also, you must not harm anyone other than dark elves. Starting from this moment of today for the next two month, this is all your orders!"

""Ha""

A sharp reply came back from the seven people.

After dispersing, Yoretto called out for rank 2 warrior, Harugozon of the Jorounefirdi 124th period, who was going to become the commander and talked to them.

"I said that just now but rank 1 warriors are different. The opponent has a considerable level of skill as well. If you don't attack them with the intention to kill you all might end up being killed."

After saying that he patted the shoulder of Harugozon who was young and tense as he stood at attention, then from an unseen angle he grinned with a smile.

(Right now, other than the those escorting caravans there's only two rank 1 warriors outside huh..It's unfortunate but die, No..I guess that's indiscreet..We need to make sure they're at least seriously injured..)
