My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

When it was completely dark, the task that finally came home was told that Harold was visiting and decided to meet immediately. This is because it is quite rare for Harold to visit without making an appointment in advance. It may be just that.

Harold was wearing a yukata because he was supposed to stay late.

“It’s been a long time, Harold-kun. What’s going on today?”

“I have something to tell you in a hurry”

>

Harold, who doesn’t like wasteful talk, cuts it out without a preface.

Tasks also take the attitude of listening.

“Hmm, let me know”

“It will be about a week later, but I will go on an expedition as a mission of the Knights. The destination is the Bertis Forest. “

” It’s far away “

The Bertis Forest is located near the border. It will take a month just to make a round trip.

At least the time can be shortened if there is an empty ship takeoff and landing area around that area.

“But it’s your first mission, isn’t it too dangerous?” It develops into a battle with the Hoshiyomi tribe. “

” Naru! “

I will leak my voice.

Harold said that the Knights and the Holy Tribes would be in battle. There is a probability that it will develop into the worst ethnic conflict.

It would be strange not to be surprised because it was said that such a thing would happen.

“Is that the real story? Why is that …”

“There is an insider in the upper part of the kingdom. It’s going to be a guide and open a clue to the end of the war. “

It’s hard to believe what is said plainly.

, but the other party is none other than Harold. It seems unlikely that he will vomit unfounded delusions.

“… What are you doing that?”

“The purpose is to capture the Hoshiyomi tribe. There seems to be a danger of being dissectioned, but if you catch it, you won’t be able to follow the end of it. “

” It’s a problem that is inhumane and cannot be overlooked. Then, but. “

If you don’t have certainty or equivalent confirmation, the task-the Sumeragi family can’t move.

Given the scale of the story and the people involved, it would be a high risk just to explore. It may be sneaky while talking about humanity, but in some cases you should also consider the option of closing your eyes.

“I can’t give you evidence. There’s nothing physical.” Did you get to know? “

A natural question. You shouldn’t be able to get this information.

Harold has a mysterious information network for some time. Did I rely on it this time as well?

The hypothesis of such a task is correct.

“Do you know the name Giffelt?”

For a moment, the task couldn’t understand what Harold said. .. It’s not because I didn’t know the name of Giffelt.

Rather the opposite. Giffelt is so famous that no one knows it.

Nothing he doesn’t know about in The Shinra myriad forms. A brilliant information store that can collect all kinds of information so much that it is touted.

However, what is known is as a very occult being.

“It’s about the rumor. It’s a fairy who can get any information in the world if you pay the price for it …”

Harold face down to the task’s remarks. I shook my head a couple of times, saying that I should do it, and it returned like this.

“I don’t think you’re an idiot, you’re a fairy. Well, I’m sure you’re a weirdo, and I don’t know if you call it a fairy.”

“Wait a minute, Harold-kun. I’ll confirm … Have you ever met” that “Giffelt?”

The early story is similar to an urban legend. I don’t usually ask if I know someone.

However, “normal” did not work for the boy who folded his arms in front of the task.

“Oh, what’s wrong with that?”

I think that’s stupid. On the other hand, I was convinced. Otherwise he cannot explain his too wide information network.

I get the impression that it is close to me from the way I talk. He had a ridiculous network of contacts.

“Well, I don’t care about that. I’ll get into the main subject.”

Harold repartitions.

Sensational information came in one after another, and I wondered if this was still the main subject, and the head of the task hurt.

◇

When I gave the name of Giffelt, the task responded more than I expected. And the Giffelt fairy theory that is told.

I managed to endure the laughter that was about to blow out.

There is a big rumor in the middle, but it was also disseminated by the person himself. The truth is that it is a self-made performance to make a name for himself in the work.

“Information Shop Giffelt” is a story that appears many times in the game and has little relation to the meta-explanation and story such as the system, operation method, and hints for obtaining items. It is a character who will do it.

It doesn’t bring much important information in clearing the game, but it appears in the forest where high-level monsters are infested, a small island floating in the sea, and the deepest part of the dungeon of Las Boss. disappear unpredictably It’s a delicate character that sells for the first time.

By the way, the real name, age, and gender of the casquette cap, which has a neutral appearance and a large bulge, are unknown.

Harold has never actually met, but apparently there is Giffelt in this world as well. I’ve met countless times in the game, and I understand that I’m a person to some extent, so even if I lie a little, it’s probably a real man.

Also, considering the reaction of the task, it seemed that I could escape the pursuit if I knew the original knowledge via Giffelt.

“I don’t care if you believe this story, but I’ll give you a chance to repay the debt”

come in. It’s been a long time since Harold and the task didn’t feel uncomfortable with each other.

That may be a problem, but for now, it’s our top priority.

“While I’m here … Prepare the military uniform of the Sarrian Empire within 3 days”

“Imperial? What are you going to do? “

” Just wear it under your armor during the expedition. When the battle begins, expose it and slow down the battle situation even a little. “

If a human from the Empire appears on the battlefield of the Knights and the Stars, they will both be wondering who the enemy is.

The military uniform of the empire is too obvious, but considering that it is in battle, it would be more effective if it is so easy to understand.

“It’s dangerous. In the worst case, attacks from both sides will be concentrated.”

I understand what the task is saying. There is. If possible, Harold wants to stop the battle itself, that is the expedition itself.

However, the reality is that there is no time or means to take such measures.

“Don’t make me laugh. I won’t even scratch the attacks of those guys.” Of course, Harold also feels a strong sense of fear and anxiety.

But I can’t close. I thought that I couldn’t get the cooperation from the task that I wouldn’t be able to move easily because I had a position if I didn’t show a strong stance to accomplish it by myself.

Harold is even thinking about creating a situation where he was threatened and forced to help as a hunger.

But that’s because in the worst case you couldn’t get help from the task. I haven’t talked about it yet because I want to avoid tasks and leaving a sword with the Sumeragi family as much as possible.

“… Let’s have some time to put together our thoughts”

The task was muddy with a painful look. Perhaps after reading Harold’s speculation, he responded like this.

Well, it’s impossible to answer immediately, Harold nods inwardly. Rather, the goodness of the task person is known as much as it was not refused at this point.

I don’t know if it’s suitable as a lord, but I like it very much as a human being. Erica’s kindness may be a task transfer.

“I don’t expect it. It’s okay to decide to ignore it or prepare an alternative, but be sure to make do with the military uniform. I’ll get rid of it. “

” I’ll arrange it right away, but honestly, it seems to send you to the dead, but I’m not reluctant. “

“If you think so, you can move as you like. To the extent that it doesn’t disturb me.”

“No … I can’t stop, Harold-kun. The appearance that comes from the individuality is dazzling, but I am also anxious as a future son. “

What a shameful thing this old man said is a task It was scattered by the word “son” that was issued by.

“… Did you go crazy? You should break your engagement with Erica”

“That letter is agreed by both parties Is it a suggestion that such a thing is possible? It is one of the options, but I will ultimately respect the intentions of each other. “

Surprisingly It was an answer. I thought it was supposed to be destroyed for Erica, but apparently it wasn’t.

Well, if you respect Erica’s will, the engagement will end up being a break, so it doesn’t matter.

“That’s why I called Erica by name since the first meeting? That was” Erica-san “behavior, and I know. I feel like it’s the first time I’ve called it firmly as far as I can. “

(No, that’s not true … shouldn’t it?)

But I don’t remember calling Erica face-to-face. Most of the time, they are called “you” or “koitsu”, and even when they aren’t there, they only call them “he”. Others rarely have the opportunity to call their name, but apparently not just for Erica.

Maybe it was too much to avoid her.

It’s been 3 years since we met. It was a rude story, no matter how hard it was.

“Don’t go down …”

While saying that, it’s better to call your name as a person. Harold changes his mind.

Whether it can be put into practice is another matter.
