My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending

The day after finishing the meeting with Ell in the garden. Harold woke up in the dim hours of dawn, when the sun hadn’t risen yet.

If you make quick preparations in your room, you can move around the laboratory without any sign of people and go outdoors without making any noise. In his hand was the two swords he used in the battle with the Ice Dragon.

At an appropriate distance from the laboratory, Harold feels as if he is dealing with an invisible enemy, and he uses the two swords in all directions. Shake.

In addition to the sword, striking techniques such as fists and kicks were also sandwiched between slashes.

Self-discipline that I have been doing almost every day for the past eight years. Compared to when it was just started, the formidable power, speed, and sharpness have reached a level that can be said to be inconsistent. There was a rough but flowing sword dance that overwhelmed the viewer.

To put it simply, it’s just a practice of learning combo techniques in the game. From Harold’s point of view, it feels like a hobby that also serves as a real benefit.

However, as the saying goes, “continuation is power”, even considering that Harold’s body has high physical ability, it is the result of his efforts. There was no difference. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to kill two ice dragons in an instant.

Training that is carried out for two hours in a row without rest, letting the inexhaustible physical strength speak. By the time I finished it, I was really sweaty. Still, it is a terrifying body because it still has enough spare capacity.

Harold, who swept away the sweat that had been sweating for a while, walked with his own face in the place where the staff began to appear. Of course, the switch has already been switched.

Thanks to that, I arrived at the destination smoothly without being afraid of the hostile gaze that still pierces me.

It was a dining room with a feeling of openness. One corner of the wall is covered with glass, and the rising sun shining through it illuminates the inside of the dining room.

This cafeteria can be used early in the morning for all-night staff, in addition to day and night.

Harold has been a regular here since he was in the lab. As usual, the staff at the cafeteria hates it, but it’s not a big problem because I’ve given up.

Harold places an order properly, and with the breakfast he receives, he sits down in his place, a two-seater seat by the window. By the way, people are sparse at this time of the day, so it’s not noticeable, but the seats around Harold are always vacant even during a crowded lunch. In addition, he was exposed to a flickering and unscrupulous gaze and was hit to the back.

It may never be possible to use the dining room with ordinary nerves, but it was not a big problem if the switch was switched.

Harold’s slackening has been steadily getting worse.

When I was eating while doing a sad self-analysis, a noisy group came in. Among them are the figures of Leafa and El. The group was about ten people, and all but Rifa and El were men.

It seems that the people around them are relatively young people in this institute. However, he is the youngest man in his mid-twenties, so he is more than ten years old compared to Leafa. By the way, while I was wondering how old Ell was, the Rifas sat near the center of the dining room, and 20 people sat on a horizontal table where they could sit.

It’s a little far from Harold, I can’t hear the voice, but I can see it clearly.

Probably a group of such things, such as trying to deepen friendship. It seems that the men are hiding their motives, but it is unavoidable for a man with a male-female ratio of 9 to 1. Leafa’s childhood stands out in appearance, but by the standards of this world, she is not old enough to be pointed at her back even if she gets married, let alone dating.

From Harold’s point of view, it looks like a junior high school student, and sometimes even an elementary school student depending on what he says and does, so the adult men who surround her seem to have a criminal odor.

By the way, it is still unknown whether the other El is a man or a woman, but if he is a man, I am interested in how the surrounding men will react.

When I was thinking about that, I suddenly met Ell. Then, he smiles for a moment and shows a slight nod.

It’s not a relationship where you can breathe Aun enough to make eye contact, but when it comes to this, it’s like “I’m guarding well so I’m relieved”. Harold said yesterday that he hated the contact from Justus and told him not to leave Leafa alone as much as possible.

That action may have the meaning of a real man for Harold’s anxiety.

Ell is basically a high-spec person, so Harold also trusts that area. So Harold also moves his chin quickly in the sense that “I know, so concentrate on that.” Ell joined the chat to see if that was the case.

For Ell, that should be the time needed to gather information.

So Harold goes back to his meal and silently brings the classic menu he’s used to eating.

It didn’t take long until the plate was empty. When I stood up to leave the cafeteria, the area started to rustle for some reason. It was also a fuss centered around Harold.

I’m sure I hate it no more, but I have no idea about this reaction. The moment I stopped for something, I heard a voice from behind.

“Where are we going? Harold”

There was Ell. Next to him is Leafa, who was pulled by Ell. It looks a little awkward.

I wondered what happened to the gathering earlier, and when I saw the seat where they were supposed to be, the men turned their hateful gaze toward us. The grudges and Harold were also slightly flickering.

From their point of view, they may think that the two beautiful girls were separated from themselves and robbed by their hated opponents. I’m scared in a different sense than usual, so I decided not to see it.

“Where I go doesn’t matter to you”

“Yes, take some time yesterday “Did you say that?”

“That’s the daytime story”

It’s early morning rather than daytime. In terms of time, it was just around 7:30.

Few people describe this time zone as daytime. That rare human may be Elle.

“I heard that Harold is a basic free time, so I thought I should make it a little earlier.”

“Assuming It’s not a reason to neglect to confirm. “

” I’m sorry. Did you have something to do from now on? “

” ……

Nothing. Even if I was told that I was going on a trip from now on, I would be free enough to accompany him.

Rather, I would like to propose myself and go to the hot springs of Summeragi. My heart as a Japanese always wants a bath.

“If you like, please. It’s my first date with three people, and I’d be happy if I had more time.”

“So, date !?”

Rifa makes a crazy voice. Thanks to that, the shocking word reached the staff who were looking at Harold and others in a long way.

At that moment, a wave of murderous intent was sent from a single employee. Someday, it may attack while yelling, “Destroy with dust!” If it is a one-on-one close-quarters combat, it will not be defeated, but if there are many people out of control against the group opponent who has become Shura, it is possible that they will be killed after giving Wanchan. It’s not something that has stopped the internal organs of the heart.

(… it’s different! If you’re talking about fighting games!)

I managed to correct it. But the more disturbed it was, the higher the formidable power of the word Ell’s date.

It may be El’s discretion, considering that Rifa is also surprised, but he is not a person who carelessly draws attention in such a place. He must have dropped a false bomb, such as a date with three people, for some purpose.

But Harold is the only one who can understand it.

On the sidelines, it seems that the worst crap below humans, who are unanimously disliked, are trying to get two beautiful girls out into the city. .. Now you have to help Rifa and El before they get poisoned! It is not always the case that a human being driven by indignation does not appear.

Harold made a strategic withdrawal to avoid being involved in such troubles.

“Oh, Harold. I’m waiting at the main gate! Time is–”

Throws words at this look. It was a merciless follow-up, but I was convinced that it was intentionally conspicuous. I wanted you to be informed in advance more than time-related things if you would take such actions.

This situation itself is even more troublesome.

◇

Harold was so deprived of his energy from the morning, but the time specified by Ell will soon come. Harold, who left his back on the gatepost with the front entrance of the laboratory, was waiting for a person with his arms folded and a slender expression.

“Hi, wait”

One of the waiters, Ell, appeared without any ill will. In front of a refreshing smile, I don’t feel like saying one of the complaints. I would like you to explain why you took such an action rather than that.

The incident at the cafeteria seems to have already run around the laboratory, and even now, grudges are flying from all sides. I don’t feel any danger, but it’s very annoying.

However, what I was most concerned about was Leafa, whose behavior was suspicious.

“Good morning …”

First of all, I’m not feeling well. The line of sight does not match. And it sounded like my voice was trembling, maybe I was nervous.

Harold gets one answer from the above factors.

(Isn’t it so dented because it was caught by Justus?)

Certainly, don’t show a lot of gaps. I was telling you. I feel sorry for Harold because I couldn’t keep it, and at the same time I’m afraid of being scolded.

I had heard from Ell in advance, but I didn’t think I was so disappointed. The smaller figure is exactly that of a scolded child.

When you take a step, Leafa jumps.

Regardless of that, I approached and put my left hand on Leafa’s head. And when I grabbed my head, I put a lot of effort into it. Iron claw again.

“It hurts, it hurts!”

After watching the fainting Leafa for about 3 seconds, relax the power of your left hand.

Freedom Rifa glared at Harold as expected.

“What are you doing!”

“I’ll go if I wake up”

Harold went down the gate first without fighting.

Behind the scenes, Rifa follows with a protest. Harold’s ears, which even listened to it, picked up Ell’s words with a bitter smile.

“Isn’t this a chara? … Maybe “

Maybe I didn’t need it, but Harold is a little surprised by Elle who knows what he says and does so accurately.

The reason why I suddenly took such an action was because it seemed to be dragged even if I forgave it with just words because of Leafa’s personality. I didn’t know if it would pop out.

Harold’s concern is very difficult to understand from the outside. Normally, it doesn’t seem to work correctly.

Leafa seemed reluctant until he went out to the city center, but when he went out to the main street, which can be said to be the face of the royal capital, his mood recovered at once. Wow! I walked around here and there while flirting enough to cheer. It was completely up. You may have completely forgotten that you were disappointed.

Suppress and call out so that only Ell, who looks at such a rear view with a smile, can hear it.

“What are you going to do with this farce?”

I think it’s the result of my thoughts, but I can’t read what the aim is.

If you do such a thing in the public circle, not only Harold but also Leafa and El will get the attention in the laboratory. Is it a check to make Justus hard to move by doing so?

That’s all I can think of. If you don’t have the knowledge of the original, it’s like that.

“By the way, Harold. Can you prepare something that can be proved even by your person who asked yesterday?”

Ell suddenly talked about it. change. By the way, Leafa was staring at the display of a store that sells fancy miscellaneous goods. I think it’s rude to think that I have a girlish hobby.

“If you have this, you will be recognized as a relative”

A pattern that says that-the symbol mark of Frieri Take out the silver key engraved with. It is a gem that was made by using the roundabout means of asking a craftsman in the town who stopped by on a mission instead of a craftsman in the royal capital.

In addition, I will give you the contents that only you should know and the handwritten letter that Ell will take command of the organization.

“Is this the key to the door leading to the hideout?”

“It’s just a decoration”

It doesn’t play a key role because it was made only to smoothly confirm whether it is a human being of Frieri.

But even if it gets into the hands of a third party, as long as it has the shape of a key, it will try to find a usable door. That’s where the idea of being misleading came into shape. To be clear, it’s a result theory.

By the way, the members who are currently affiliated are also given bracelets and bronze coins with the same mark. Since it was a skillful work, a considerable amount of money flew, but Harold was generally satisfied. It’s a type that can be entered from a fairly good shape.

Elle, who was given an unusable key, had a strange look on her face, but she seemed to be convinced for the time being.

“Hmm. By the way, where is the essential hideout?”

I silently hand over another piece of paper. The place marked on it is, of course, not the royal capital of Justus’s knees. However, if you are too far from the royal capital, it will be difficult to move quickly, and if it is a small town, it will stand out if people gather.

A relatively well-developed and populous city far from the royal capital to the extent that Justus’s influence is hard to reach. There is the home of Frieri.

“Don’t commit the blunder of losing”

“OK. ”

” I don’t have to look around … “

I know I’ve lived for more than five years. There is almost no place without it.

I sigh involuntarily. I have a headache when I think that this is the situation because of just this much discussion.

On the other hand, Ell keeps smiling.

“Don’t say that. Even if it’s a city that isn’t fresh for us, it’s for Leafa … Oops.”

Ell staggers when she hits her shoulder lightly with a man. It wasn’t about to fall, but he grabbed his thin shoulders and supported him.

It was a delicate body. The exact age of Ell is not officially set, but if you look at it, it’s around fifteen or six. Is this fineness possible for a man of that age?

I didn’t really care about it until now, but Harold suddenly thinks about it. In a sense, he is the most mysterious person in the original character.

“Thank you. It’s surprisingly kind.” I felt embarrassed because the word, was directed for the first time in a long time, and I suddenly let go. Seeing the gesture, Ell giggled.

To hide the shyness, Harold pretended not to notice it, and headed to secure Leafa, who wasn’t too busy to get lost.
