1530 War and Peace, Part 68 - First Day of Conference, Night ② -

"(Bad -)"

Bugs blew up in unison in front of Renatica, who managed to avoid fatal injuries. The sound of the deaf bugs was distant for a moment because the surrounding bugs were hit simultaneously. When Renatica regained her position, she noticed the man standing behind her at some point.

Before Lunatica reacted frighteningly, he was pounded on the shoulder.

"It's not a good dance inside. You, maybe the warrior was better suited than the assassin originally. That's a shame. I didn't know you'd left the organization."

The man who entered in front of Renatica was beautifully backed by crude language. No, it looked beautiful. Beautiful man with long hair, but beauty without any features. Beauty in difficulty in expression, where to say beauty. When he realized it was because he obviously knew it was a creation, Renatica was accidentally speaking up and crushing his opponent's name.

"No way, let's top it off"

"What, you know about me? Well, I just got my nickname, and it's not like I'm gonna be able to tell you who I am."

Uplift - it is the second alias of Almas. Unlike number 3, which can even be deformed as a characteristic, he is known as a master of pure disguise. A master of disguise, who is even said to be false in appearance and gender, was once heard to be No. 2 in the organization.

But the modus operandi and methods of combat are unknown. There are only people in the workplace who have become meat chunks. Rigid as a monster, or a pleasure killer who turns his enemies into pieces of flesh. It's all just rumors, too.

And I did see Renatica in front of me. The worms touched by the uppermost fly in unison. I don't know what I did, but the bugs did blow up. But before Lunatica moved, the uplift sharply controlled Lunatica's movements.

"If you don't want to die, don't ask me anything extra, okay? The disposition order against you, the traitor to the organization, has not been withdrawn. Now it's just a priority, and if there's a direct order from Whisper or the boss, I'm gonna have to turn you off. Besides, even if you touch my secrets, it's the same.

I'm not hiding anything, but I've been hiding my existence by destroying everything I've seen. Because they tell me to. If you make a scene, the others will come out. You know what that means?

Renatica nodded silently. Assassination mostly kills only the subject, but if you do kill everyone who sees you, it can also be an assassination. And when his fingers roared with cockroaches, he approached the worms himself.

"Come on, you can kill them all, but it's just a hassle. You, you got something to do in this formation, don't you? I'll spare you the dancing earlier. I'll take care of the exposures, so just get it over with. So, as soon as it's all over, we're pulling out. I'd be better off with that too. Is that all right?

"Oh."

I didn't have time for an extra reply. If you are a human, look at the power of battle and fear, but your opponent is a bug who knows nothing about fear. I pulled it once to identify the threat of overhang. If we were to step in again and invade their positions, the bugs would strike until they were wiped out. There are assassins who incorporate worms into the battle, but the roughly unchanged principles just change in their size and type. Bugs only follow their master's orders faithfully.

Trying to be protected all over the place, Renatica began to move. The battle was intense, but the bugs were trying to get rid of the intruders at all costs, and now they've even refrained from sounding feathers and attacked almost silently. In the dark, slap them down accurately. It was a quiet battle, for the splashing bugs and the sharpness of the attack.

"All but you."

"Besides you, some of them have already stepped in, but soon the bugs will eat them, and there will be no trace of them. That's what it's like not to have a lookout inside the position. The bugs are ordered to attack indiscriminately the people in the formation, perhaps those outside the tent."

The uppermost is talking to Renatica as he raves about the bugs. It's horrible at the top where I can still afford it, but I found it more horrible at Renatica for someone who laid this formation.

"Who would do this?"

"Well, you mean the calamity body, right? The world of assassination is also vast, but I don't know a bug of this magnitude. Perhaps the main unit is coming, not the split, but it seems to be here."

"? How can you say that?

"The bug order hasn't been updated since just now. Just act on certain orders, even though I'm being judged. I would give orders a little more efficiently with the main unit.

This is an opportunity. It's hard for me to break through on my own, but I can monotonize the bug attack by turning you down. It's a mutually beneficial story. "

"What's your purpose?

I laugh when I go for it. The laughter looks unnatural, probably because the cheeky face is a creation.

"The assassination of Swendle, King of Romansland."

"... there's no assassination in my job, but if I can see how it goes, I'm being instructed to peek. I'll accompany you to the tent."

"That's fine. Let's just say we do each other's work."

Renatica went ahead with her collaboration to top it off. Even though I am the first person I have met, the collaboration goes so smoothly because I still received the same training as a person in the same organization and because I am overwhelmingly combative.

And in the meantime, Renatica was trying to figure out who the attack was all over her.

"(Attacks are at close range only. It all touches the bugs directly and they are all scattered. Probably some effect by touching it - not special abilities, but technology. It's not constant in touch, but it's narrowed down to several streets. Who the hell is that?)"

Lunatica was observing, questionably, but at the same time she was observing Lunatica again.

I know about Lunatica, too. Silver-haired daughter rebelled against the organization, said to be promising for the future. He turned his back on them, but turned away from them. But even before the rebellion, he knew about Lunatica. No, number one and number three were also immediately informed by Whisper of their existence.

"(I see. Is this what Whisper said, the heir to silver? Sure would be a good battle with # 1 if it was material. In the next few years, maybe you and I will fight each other more than we do. I can see why Whisper wanted to keep it with him. Well, me and number one, anyway, if the very silver guys attacked me with their current power - I guess)"

Though Lunatica's observation was made, he withdrew the worms. And when they came to a certain place, the bugs suddenly stopped attacking. A large tent appeared in front of him.
