Plus, there's something pinning.

"- That says there's a demon clan nearby?

"Yes, no, I don't think so either..."

....

Isn't that right?

Different food discomfort felt in the fold. nature and the left and right eyebrows lean towards the center.

And Gregory, the one who denied it, seemed awkward for some reason. From this situation, I thought it was a suggestion to predict the danger, but what did you think? If there's no danger of demons or anything like that, you shouldn't have to do that, such as evacuate as soon as possible.

Then, the teatania.

"Gregory. I do agree with you on heading somewhere safe, but I think it's better after you think about what the Demons are up to right now. If you move without thinking about it now, it could be dangerous."

"... is as His Royal Highness said"

To the words of Teatania, Gregory, who honestly bows his head.

Are you convinced? But what was the earlier proposal? I also felt like there was some kind of impatience in the words that could chase me, but...

"... tier. Is there any chance there's a demon tribe outside the North?

Again, I ask Titania not to explore other prospects.

If the Demons are in a land other than the North, there should be no chance of them showing up here either.

"No. Supposedly not. All demons in this world have been driven north by the help of the brave men who were summoned before, so to say they are in another region.. if the legacy is correct."

"Heritage?"

"This is a copy of a book written before when I called for the brave. After defeating the demon king of the time, the nations gaining momentum defeated the demons one after the other, leaving them at the deepest end of the harshness of the North.. More than that, it is assumed that the annihilation of the demons had to give up, not in a place where humans could advance their armies"

"Yeah......"

If that is truly the right thing, is there any chance that there are other demons?

When that happens.

"... you just don't get it."

"Oh."

I agree with the roaring of troubled water trees. Talk or talk, there's no answer. I can't find the thread.

And that was the time. I hear footsteps running from afar.

And.

"Yu, brave man!

and a call to let the presence be known here. The Lord of that voice was a young knight, who, like Gregory, was still on his way to support himself unfamiliar with the outside world.

In order to keep in continuous contact with the human of the castle, he sometimes served to leave the journey, replacing the last Gregory. This time he and the other knight were temporarily away from the journey......

The young knight descends from the horse on which he was riding and greets him this way.

"Mr. Roffrey."

"Ha, I'm back now"

"Roffrey. Are you hurt?

To Titania's casual question, Roffrey rushed out to Russia after a flash of shuddering.

"Wow, the princess has a heart for me and other knights."

"Roffrey."

"Ha! No, more over there..."

To Gregory's cough, surprise. Driven by a different rush than earlier, Roffrey undoes his rising heart.

Answer such a questionable gaze of his.

"Oh, you saw that one. Just now, they attacked me, so I paid them back."

"Is that it all!?

That - I mean, they've seen the scuffs of the demons they've raided. Roffrey speaks of a screaming surprise.

If you've seen it, you won't be surprised by it now. He is a man of great esteem.

"Oh, oh."

"Exactly! Dear Reggie!... Ah, no. Not so!

... some, loud too. How are you feeling all the time or sincere about everything?

But he wants to say something.

Gregory asks against Roffrey like that.

"What's the matter with you? You've been floating around for a long time. And what happened to Luca? Why didn't you come back when I went to see the liaison with you?

"I'll tell you about it, including"

And, Roffrey sets aside once and starts talking again.

"It's abrupt, but we have to get out of here as soon as possible."

"Why is that?

"Yes, a great army of demons has crossed the border north of Astel through Tria and Chardock."

He had a hard face and remarkable mouth, Roffrey. Tria, and Chardock are the countries north of Nerferia and Astel......

It was Titania who first changed his complexion and raised his voice to his story.

"What the hell!? Is that true, Roffrey!?

"Ha... Ha, in the Liaison Officer story, perhaps..."

Teetania asking to be stuffed. Pressured by her momentum, Roffrey answers her frightening.

But there was something in Trinity that bothered me about what he said and did.

"Mr. Roffrey. Apparently, what do you mean?

Ask the intent. All vague expressions had been used for Roffrey's story from earlier.

There is not a single certainty from the devil's invasion of Astel.

About that, Roffrey...

"That's based on the fact that sleeping numbers near the border accidentally discovered traces like that, so it's clear to me too..."

"Traces?"

"is that there were different footprints and traces of magic from the demons in the places that seemed to pass by."

There's Titania.

"Has anyone actually seen the Demons?

"Yes, there seems to be absolutely no sign of standing and movement, and there is no story of witnessing or being attacked"

The water tree speaks without fear.

"... then think about it normally, you get rammed, don't you?

Everyone snorts. You're right about Mizuki. If the kind of people who are hostile to humans and have already taken action have come all the way across the border, you can assume that it was meant for confusion.

It goes without saying that there are other purposes, but they should be excluded at the point of the Great Army. Because it is a matter of contention that we can make the most of our massive battle power.

But.

"Since there is no such thing in this case, the information is uncertain, or it was not credible..."

"The people who attacked us, they might not be."

I guess Roffrey knew about the demonic raid and predicted there might be a connection. Specifically, it means they're part of that demon clan.

Then I can also nod at his audacious reaction earlier.

"Yes, it depends on what I thought too," Roffrey said bitterly.

So, Gregory did.

"So what about Luca?"

"headed to the City of Temporary Kranto to safely deliver the liaison officer. The rendezvous will be in Imperial territory later."

"Right. Okay."

And in the face of Titania's persecution.

"That's a bad thing."

"This means our moves are being found out by the Demons, right? But that was earlier..."

Yes, it's been resolved. Earlier raids were just too coincidental to have been aimed at.

Then what do you mean?

"Perhaps the demons found out that the brave men were called, but they don't know the details? That's why they came here like we were just doing some forced recon."

"Ah..."

"I see. Now you're on your way to find someone like that."

"Yeah."

That's right.

If they find out there's a big army, they could get away with it, so if they're avoiding it, taking covert action, and keeping their troops small and searching, it's something that's going to fit as if they've made Mizuki and Teatania feel better now.

(... but)

However, there should be a liaison officer to tell them about it, but there was no one who wanted them.

I feel like it's too early to pack it as an answer.

But I haven't found out, but this is a circumstance.

It was the water tree that spoke of it instead.

"Not if you're nearby. The horses were all killed by the demons earlier, except for Mr. Roffrey..."

"Yeah. Sucks, maybe you won't get away with it. Somehow, we might have to face it."

"Roffrey. Any guesses about the size of the demonic army?

"Perhaps there is more than a thousand..."

"No..."

"... it"

Following the discontinuing water tree, he has no words himself. That's just how many you can't stand.

Even the demons just now took a while to defeat. That's a thousand. If you can push it all at once, there won't be a single one.

Even now, the words of Shuiming revolt around my head.

With a face that looks spicy with water trees.

"Well, then we have to get out of here."

"No, fleeing the darkness is not a good idea. The horse is only one of mine, and I have to route it and think about food and water..."

Roffrey's suggestion, which denied the words of the water tree, which was floating, was particularly so.

Everyone nods at it, and then asks a skilled knight who, for some reason, Titania hasn't made any suggestions before.

"Gregory. What do you think you should do?

"No......"

It's disgusting and the reply is not fragrant. Things have been strange since we talked about the Demon Clan.

... No, wait. Speaking of which, what did Gregory say earlier?

When we talk about the Demons, it's like we're in a hurry for something to exist.

Everyone's gaze gathers at Gregory, who still can't wipe the unnatural atmosphere. Then he was small and groaned, "It'll be right around now..."

"Gregory?"

"... you won't be worried about that"

What does that mean?

... that word he uttered with a sinister face was the first wave of turmoil when this journey began.
