“Then tell me your name at once.”
「……」
“Can you tell me who you are? Regardless of whether I know or not”.
「……」
“Why are you summoning? What’s the purpose?”
「……」
It’s true that I don’t want to tell a lie, but I was so scared I couldn’t move my mouth.
If I keep silent, I’ll die as a matter of course. It depends on the man’s mood, always without fail.
To be honest, there is no guarantee that he will save his life.
To begin with, such a splendid failure in the mission would not be forgiven by Princess Senko.
Whether we talk or not, death is already a matter of decision.
Then —
“……I won’t speak at all.”
and at least he did not wish to remain unruly at the very moment of death.
“Pff, hahaha… I will show you my loyalty. No matter how much pain I suffer, I will answer nothing.”
“Why did you left your men and ran away?”
“I have no excuse. But it was necessary to inform the abnormality. I was wounded, and I, the captain, took the lead in leaving, and my men followed me–“
With a thud?
“Uck, gya wa!”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I dropped it. It wasn’t on purpose. It’s true. But it’s just an excuse, right? I don’t think that’s cool.”
Zoff was wet all over his face with tears, a runny nose, and a beard.
(I can’t, I can’t, I can’t… This torture is intolerable…)
The pain I’ve had was not that bad. But he knew that the pain was certainly been conveyed.
(What should I do…)
If he could pass this spot he might still be more tormented than the black man.
Stop killing me.
[Wait a minute. If you act pleasantly…]
There are other people who torture me. I won’t force an insane person to confess.
If he doesn’t speak, she may escape the rebuke.
As he waited for the right time, the man stopped to pick up Zov’s body.
After pretending to think for a while, he approaches Zoff.
He reached out to one of his men on the ground, not to Zoff;
“Hii, what’s wrong with you?! Stop it, please!”
I grabbed my hair and lifted it up.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have anything else to hold. But since it’s only your head’s weight, it doesn’t hurt so much, does it?”
The man returned to the place where he lay again.
“I really don’t know…Oh, I see. If you’re aware of the connection… there it is. This is it.”
“No, don’t do that. . . .I’ll help you…
The man raised a body with his open arms. He carried it lightly and hid it among the trees.
There is no scream.
How long has the heavy silence lasted?
Then they appeared.
His head rests on his body.
It was in normal condition, but it seemed strange to Zoff’s eyes.
His face looked relieved and perplexed.
but he walked firmly on his own feet.
The man urged Golem to sit down on the fallen tree. I was talking about something, but Zoff couldn’t understand it.
“Next time… you?”
The man seized another man by the head.
“Does that mean…”
Zoff read his men’s intentions.
Do you mean to take each one of them out and let them confess everything instead of returning them to their original form? Then they check each other’s testimony to see if they have told a lie.
A third person is taken and appears with his head connected to his body. They sat side by side in a tree, looking down at each other rather than speaking to each other.
(Do you want to be guilty? Turn this way traitors!)
He started to get angry, and at the same time, he chuckled.
I feel as if I was a fool who endured the fear of torture, but now I feel as if I had no fear of it.
“…… My name is Kelly Zoff, the summoner’s captain, under the direct control of the Queen.”
