My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

“Hey! What are you doing to Ell !?”

There is such a voice between Harold and Ell. Break in.

If you look at it, Leafa, who has finished collecting ice dragon samples, dashed here while dyeing white clothed in bright red in places. In the eyes of Rifa, Harold may have appeared to be bullying Ell.

Harold controls such a leafa with a single right hand. I grabbed the small head with the so-called iron claw.

“Nyaa !?”

Rifa makes a strange voice in the sudden shock and pain.

The sight of a bloody human being fiercely approaching stimulated a sense of repulsion. Harold, who is also bathed in the blood of an ice dragon, may not have said that.

I couldn’t help grabbing Leafa, who showed fluttering and resistance, so I let go. Freed from Iron Claw, Rifa takes a distance and threatens Harold.

It’s like a cat.

Looking away from her, Harold flips the switch. By doing so, the excitement in the battle will be calmed down.

The switch is just what Harold calls it for convenience, and the early story is a switch of consciousness devised to harness the power of the original Harold.

However, Kazuki Hirasawa’s consciousness is not interrupted. He recognizes that it is a kind of mental control technology that pushes the consciousness of the original Harold sleeping in himself to the front, but the exact reasoning is unknown.

This is Harold’s guess, but from some of the rules of thumb I got from coming to this world, I suspect that the original Harold is sleeping in my body or mind. I thought so.

When you realize your situation. Who moved the stunned body and spoke the words?

When I fought against Ritzelt. Who owns the murderous intent that springs from the depths of your heart?

Harold’s conclusion by connecting these pieces together was that “the original Harold exists in me.”

So Harold has tried many different ways to test his hypothesis. Put yourself in a dangerous battlefield, sometimes life-threatening, so that you can sometimes lose consciousness and become innocent.

You will definitely need it someday, so that you can draw out its power in the battle event in the original.

As a result, Harold has acquired a new skill of switching. I don’t know if this is a proof that his hypothesis was correct, or if it just increased his mental control.

What is clear is that the fear that you should feel by switching the switch is treated as a combat instinct, and the combat ability is greatly improved. Even in a life-threatening battle, I’m no longer scared.

A body and technique that has been trained more than the original. Knowledge that is familiar with how to fight for you. The struggle instinct as the original Harold.

Harold Stokes is the best and ideal form that can be expected as an individual in terms of strength.

Harold can be said to be close to that.

At the cost of forcing a switch, the mouth of rants and insults would be even worse. Harold’s words in the switched state are mostly based on the original. I don’t want to expose it in public.

“Calm down, Leafa. I haven’t done anything else.” Speaks with a calm voice.

“Then why did you kneel!”

“Oh, that’s him-Harold’s subordinate. “Because it’s gone”

“Hey …?” Harold has a similar feeling.

Now Ell says she’s a subordinate of Harold. That’s why I got on my knees and knelt down.

It seems correct if you ask that much. However, Harold intended to ask for a give-and-take relationship, saying that if he could help, he would also help find the “memory of the stars” that the Giffelt clan was looking for.

Certainly, looking back on the previous exchange, it is also true that Harold was a superior, if not master-slave. It may have been even higher pressure than usual because the switch was left on.

I was so delighted that I passed through, but I should have felt a sense of discomfort when I was dressed up.

(Isn’t Ell accepting it? Isn’t it my subordinate or a decisive refusal?)

This situation that I was actually a subordinate when I thought I got it.

I never expected myself to stand on Giffelt. In the first place, I don’t think I can handle El, a Giffelt clan, though not very much.

“Don’t get me wrong. I just told you to add you to my umbrella.”

“Still trusted I know it hasn’t been done. Let’s win it with future actions. “

No. That’s not what Harold wants to say.

In addition to the honorifics that I have never seen in the original, the first person has changed. It’s creepy past the feeling of strangeness.

“What do you mean by your subordinates? No way …!”

“There is no such fact. I chose that. “

The restarted Leafa tries to question her true intentions, but Ell denies the pursuit head-on. Definitely exactly what Ell said. There is nothing wrong with Harold.

And I also learned how Leafa was looking at Harold.

The first means of suspicion is threatening. If that was the case, it would be a crap guy.

Well, that’s probably how the bad publicity about Harold was conveyed correctly. It’s sad that Rifa doesn’t have to hate me, but I can’t deny it because Erica, who will eventually become a companion, tells me that she’s actually a legitimate person and I don’t want her to be misunderstood.

“If you want to gain the trust of me, first change that creepy attitude.”

“Is it so unpopular? Tadaomi I intended to behave like that. “

” Oh, I’m scared “

” It failed “

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. It was easy to return to the same state as before.

Perhaps that attitude was to make fun of Harold. Or did it look unnecessarily sloppy because of information about the memory of the stars?

I would like you to correct the recognition that you are a subordinate, whether you are serious or joking, but now I give priority to descending mountains. Although it is sunny, the temperature is quite low, and it will be in the low single digits.

Rather, Leafa is a miniskirt, and although Ell is thick, she has only one overall and bleached chest. Isn’t this cold?

Well, in the original story, Erica walks through the snowstorm mountain with a hakama that seems to be licking a mountain climbing called lacquer clogs, and above all, the protagonist party is lightly dressed overall. If you think about it, it’s not something you’re going to dig into. That is also a game specification.

“It’s a waste of time to stay any longer. I’ll be back soon.” Are you going back? “

” That’s right “

” Is it the royal capital? It’s been about two years since I went there. “

“What are you doing for the royal capital?”

“I’m using it, I’ll follow Harold”

“What?”

Elle tries to accompany her as a matter of course. Attempting to reject it immediately, but Harold stopped.

Harold, who has already been removed from the Knights, will spend time in a laboratory room when he returns to the royal capital. And there is Justus in the laboratory.

If Ell can be matched with Justus, it may be possible to obtain information.

Harold has the original knowledge, which gives him a rough idea of what steps Justus will take and what will happen. However, if the progress of the plan remains unknown, it is difficult to crush the starting point, and even if it can be done, there is a risk that the knowledge of the original, which is the greatest advantage, will be useless because it will deviate significantly from the original.

So Harold envisioned always being ahead of the game. It’s a quick countermeasure 《 counter attack 》 against the events that Justus causes.

It is the protagonists Liners who will actually move, but secretly supporting it will be a big goal in the future. For that reason, I have been steadily gathering people, and fortunately I was able to bring in Ell this time.

With the help of Ell, it may be possible to find out at what stage Justus’s plans are.

“I’m going to have more opportunities to contact you, so I’d like to confirm Harold’s base.”

“Hmm, selfish Anyway “

It’s true that we’ll meet more often, and there’s a reason to say that. And if you’re Ell, you don’t have to worry about leaking this information when you meet Justus.

What is worrisome is how much Ell knows about Harold.

It seems that you understand the flow from joining the Knights to the present, but what about before that? Considering the power of Giffelt, it is no wonder that even collet and LP farming methods have been investigated, but there is no confirmation.

It is possible that you will be suspicious because you asked for a stop, and you will be exposed instead.

It was a time when I was worried about myself. Rifa, who had been waiting from the middle, suddenly declared:

“I’ll keep up with you!”

I felt like the time stopped at mysterious remarks.

I don’t understand why Leafa is going to follow Harolds.

“You have a funny thinking circuit. It’s full of bugs and requires maintenance.”

“What, Ell is good. Why am I not good? “

Ironically, it was easy to get through, but in short, that’s exactly what it is. The story doesn’t progress unless Leafa becomes a member of Liner.

In this world, which is not tied to a scenario, you can choose a route where Leafa does not meet Liner, but of course the strength of the protagonist party will drop. In particular, Leafa helps solve the miasma that occurs in the area of Summeragi.

If she is on this side, it will cause more damage than Harold expected. I also want to avoid that.

“Yes, I don’t need your power”

“I’m not going to be your subordinate. I told him to follow him to the royal capital because he was worried. After that, I’ll go back to my village. “

Rifa said so and stripped her teeth.

It seems that Harold just got to the point early, and she was reluctant to offer to accompany her.

However, it is not a big problem if it is to the royal capital. There is also an advantage in ensuring the safety of Leafa, as it is not always the case that he will be involved in an accident and die while returning alone.

“Are you worried? Is this guy?”

“Yes, that’s right. You can’t leave El to Harold, right?

What are you Ell?

Harold was able to endure such a tsukkomi while feeling the low reliability.

◇

Ell turns his gaze toward Harold, who is steadily moving diagonally forward of himself.

A moody face rather than an expressionless face. That doesn’t mean he’s frowning, it’s probably his default. Poor eyesight may also be one of the reasons why it looks moody.

Three days away from Giran Snow Mountain. The only facial expressions that Ell saw were such a moody one and the ironically distorted smile that often floats when provoking Leafa.

Harold doesn’t have a lot of words, but his mouth is very bad. I can only think that I’m always trying my best to make enemies around me.

I can’t measure the inner side yet, but judging from the outer side alone, I can’t say that I’m a very good person. Even from Ell, who has the pride of having been in contact with humans who have stronger habits than humans, he is by far the best in a bad sense.

I would never have thought of going down without the condition that I could get information about the memory of the stars. There is no hesitation in disappearing as soon as it turns out to be false.

Ell feels that way after spending a short time together.

I should have known the feelings of human beings near Harold on a daily basis.

Emotions such as hostility, disgust, and contempt that are emitted from the surroundings.

Although the place should be silent, it seems that the hallucinations of abusive miscellaneous words can be heard at any moment.

This was Harold’s evaluation at the Astral Research and Development Center.

Next to Ell, Rifa, who has been fine all the time, is giving up. Until a few hours ago, I was quite excited about the first empty ship I boarded in my life.

Reefa, who should be stronger than a normal person, is so frightened by the feelings directed toward others. Ell like this also walked slowly with a strong consciousness so as not to suppress the urge to leave this place as soon as possible and not to walk fast.

To that extent, the bad feelings that the people at this institute had towards Harold were fierce.

Even if I was exposed to such feelings, I didn’t seem to be moved by Harold.

I’m not afraid of piercing bad feelings, and I don’t show anger to counter it. He didn’t show annoyed and disgusted gestures, nor did he try to be unconscious and erase his facial expression.

Indifference. That was the word that best described Harold’s condition.

(I wonder what happened to this point …)

I’m interested in myself, both friendly and hostile. It is difficult to completely ignore a person with a certain. That interest is extremely intense, especially if there are many.

I suspect that I have a defect in my sensibility as a person.

If not, and if you are doing it intentionally for some reason, you will be impressed without good or bad.

Harold suddenly stops. At the end of the corridor in front of me, there is a white door.

An inorganic knocking sound is heard. A few seconds later, the door was opened.

A man who seems to be in his mid-thirties. He frowned the moment he found out that the Lord of Knock was Harold. After all it seems that he is hated like a snake.

“… What is it for?”

“Don’t ask me what you understand. Do you want to show off? “

(If you open your mouth, you should be disliked)

Very harsh environment However, it is the result of being completely self-employed. There is no room for sympathy.

Harold, who doesn’t seem to care about the people around him, may have sympathy and other unnecessary things.

The man who was ranted instantly dyed his face bright red and his eyes hung up sharply. It was clear that he was furious.

While shivering in anger, the man still manages to parry Harold’s words.

“The director is in the middle of an experiment. If it’s a report later–”

“My report is the highest priority. If so, let him know that I’m back. If you’re a foolish figure like you, you can use it like that. Well, it’s impossible. If that’s the case, I won’t force you. “

I was convinced when I heard this, but it seems that the provocation against Leafa was quite sloppy. The sharpness of the words is different.

The man was so angry that he might be indignant at any moment. And at that time, the terrible atmosphere of the two people was about to reach the climax.

“I think there are useful and useless quarrels. Which do you think you are trying to do? My expectation is useless. It’s going to be. “

A flat voice that makes me wonder if it was made by a person. It arrived from the back of the room.

A white-haired man with a thin-faced face. Although he is tall and thin, his back is slightly stooped, which gives a weak impression. In his appearance, the twins with an inorganic dull light are especially eye-catching.

Justus ・ Freund. There was one of the scholars representing the kingdom.
