"...what?"

　He probably couldn't believe the sight of his head being cut off his shoulders in just one breath. a stupid rnojis
　The next moment, however, blood gushes from both shoulders, and the most severe pain I've ever experienced before hits me.

"Oh, my God,"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"

　He must have been unable to bear the acute pain. Roll around the ground and stain the surrounding ground with blood.

"Mr. Ray... isn't it a little too much?"

　The one who mutters in a dumbfounded tone is the adventurer who was near Ray. It was hard to bear to see that he had his shoulder amputated even though he had betrayed him.

"Is that so? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .."
"Of course! There's no way I'll beat Ray!"

　a man who shakes his head violently at the thought of being hostile to Ray
　Ray gazed at the man for a few seconds, listening to Renojis' screams, but then he breathed out a small sigh.
　In fact, it's true that they brought Ray here, but they're the ones who were all about to be killed by Renojis. When you think about it, you decide that at least you're not your enemy.

"I'll leave you alone for now," It's more of a fellow now."

　Turn the death-size handle in your hand and thrust its huge blade at the neck of a Renojis rolling around on the ground.
　Perhaps he noticed the symbol of death on his neck, but Renojis stopped moving any longer and looked up at Ray holding back the screams of pain.
　He was the next head of the Marquis family, and his existence was overwhelmingly different from the adventurous spirit. But I didn't understand why I was going through this, and I still understood that my life would be in danger.
　Ordinary people would beg for their lives in this situation. Or some might have accepted death in silence. However, Renojis, who was proud of himself as a noble, could not do so. I couldn't forgive the situation where I was seized with adventurous spirit. accordingly

"Dear you! Do you think I'll be forgiven for being the next Marquis of Imagen? I'll never forgive you! I'll make you regret it. Your friends and acquaintances, all of them, will be punished for treating me in this way!"

　Renojis glaring at Rey in severe pain, having his shoulder amputated. It's not a mockery that's already in the eye, it's tinged with hatred and murder. Surely, if Ray was released here without doing anything, he would do what he said. But the biggest failure of Renojis was to say it out to Ray.
　Ray looks down at the person staring at him with hatred in his eyes, and makes a mockery at his mouth. Slowly advance the death-size blade that sticks directly to Renojis' neck. The blade, moving slowly and truly slowly, cuts the skin off Renojis' throat, and moves forward without stopping.
　Eventually he noticed the blade moving toward his neck. Renojis, who stopped moving wildly with pain losing both shoulders, turned his eyes to Ray in astonishment.

"Oh, hey! What are you doing! Are you going to kill me!? Just keep that dirty weapon away from me!"
"Why? You have a chance to deal with someone who says you're hostile to me, so if you just deal with it, it won't be a problem."

　Disposal without disposal. Renojis' face turns into a tinge of dismay, as if he had understood his situation when he spoke to him as if he were dealing with something or something.

"Don't be silly, my friend! Are you going to kill me, a nobleman?"
"Oh,"

　Ray nods as if he were nodding when he was told that the weather was fine today.
　At this point Renojis finally understands. He is in front of us a person who does not even have the slightest respect for the nobility. If you get in the way, you're going to kill yourself as if you're cleaning up garbage.
　You can't say that it was too late to notice... In the kingdom of Milliana, or in the world of Elgin, aristocrats are seen as being so special. Of course there are some who don't consider nobles to be nobles, but fortunately Renojis never met them.

"I have been given permission to deal with the nobles who have been involved with me. And it's true that you tried to kill me. Then why do you have to hesitate to deal with it here? Fortunately, nobody will notice if someone dies here."
"Well..."

　When Renojis tried to shout something, The death-size blade cuts the neck and spouts blood like a fountain, even higher than the blood flowing from both arms. It was supposed to have been... Unless the adventurer's dagger was on a death-size handle to stop the blade moving.
　Originally, the weight of a long sword could not affect Ray's death size. However, he still stopped because he questioned the adventurer's behavior.
　Renojis fell unconscious to the ground, perhaps because he could not stand the fear of death. The crotch area is wet, not to mention what liquid it is.
　He fainted, but still bleeding from his shoulders, and if left untouched, he would surely die of blood loss before long.
　Or Ray turns to the adventurer thinking that he should not kill him at once, but the man with a sword on his death-size handle turned to the forest instead of Ray.

(Now that you mention it, the arrow hasn't been shot.)

　Just as I thought about it, a man emerges from the forest, suddenly raking through the bushes.
　At first I thought he was a knight under Renojis, but it was Ray's face that showed up.
　His face has many cuts on it, and he looks like a bandit at first be seen as a bandit. And there's a battleax in his hand.

"Egg?"

　Yes, it was undoubtedly Egg, the leader of the wolf in the grasslands of the bandits, who emerged from the forest.

"Oh, it seems that you were safe, too,"

　In a safe and natural tone, raise the hand of the person who doesn't have the Battleax and ask him with a mystified look.

"No, that's true, but... why here?"
"What are you talking about?" You are the one who brought me to cooperate with the Count of Larkes?"
"...that is, Mr. Dusker saw the matter?"
"That's not the case," That's why I got Verda involved."
"Verda?"

　Ray slanting his head at an unfamiliar name.
　As he watches Ray, Egg looks wryly at the adventurer's man with his sword drawn away from his death-size handle.

"What? Didn't you introduce yourself?"
"No, no, I didn't have time for that. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Verda, and I am familiar with Egg.""Is the adventurer's old friend a thief?"
"It's true, I was surprised when I met Egg again here. I never thought I'd be a thief... and I never thought I'd be under that Larkus frontier."
"There are a lot of things going on here, too. Well, at any rate, the Count of Frontiers Larx noticed this man's suspicious movements. I used a Verda to catch him."

　Eggs telling me not to feel bad. But there was a smile on his lips that I could hardly believe he was apologizing.
　Watching the smile, Ray also understands the general course of events.

"I see. I was just bait."
"Well, that's it. No, I'm afraid of aristocrats anyway. Even though it's temporary, they try to use their subordinates as bait to reduce the power of the opposing factions. and they were united in their confrontation with the Empire of Bestia."

　Eggs shake their shoulders deliberately when they're scared. However, from the outset, the tremor does not hide the threat, but only the tremor to hide the laughter. at least in Ray's eyes
　He must have felt Ray's cheek twitching in his hood. Verda opens her mouth in a flurry.

"Feed, however, must be because it was the food that he ate the fish he had eaten, and that is why he was so comfortable with it." That's Ray, who won the nickname in this war. It's easy to take it for granted that you didn't intend to throw it away. --but Egg, what are you going to do with this dying boy?"

　He must have thought it was clumsy to anger Ray any more. Verda turns to Renojis, who is fainting on the ground.
　Although the ends of the shoulders are lost, the blood from them has somehow stopped flowing. The scar on the neck was still covered, although it was still ugly.

"...why is the wound gone now?"
"That's true. ... Well, if he's a nobleman..."

　Egg muttering and checking on Renojis. Then he immediately finds the necklace around his neck.

"Well, I've seen it before. This is a magic item that will automatically activate once you get seriously injured."
"Even if you say you're going to cure the wound, the amputated shoulder will remain intact?"
"That's true. It's not such a high‐level magic item. Even if you say you're going to cure it, it's a minimal treatment, such as hemostasis or preventing death. What's more, it's disposable.

　Eggs that look at necklaces that look like mere stones for a magic item. Like disposable, Renojis's magical effect of bloodstopping his shoulders has probably disappeared.

"Well, I'll be saved if I don't die like this."

　Eggs take their hands off the necklace and lift the stunned Renojis with a wry smile.

"...and what will happen to him?"
"Well, that's what Larkes thinks, isn't it? Well, no matter what you think, it's certain that he doesn't have a happy future. Because he tried to assassinate Ray, who was supposed to be his ally. out of spite of it Besides, I've lost both arms, and at least I think it's impossible, as he said, to succeed the Marquis family. So I'd like you to pull Ray out here, too. You don't mean that I have to kill him, do you?
"You don't have to kill me, to be sure, but it's all right to kill me."

　Still, Ray puts his death size in the mistling.
　He said it was all right to kill him, but honestly, Egg's words made him faint.

(And Renojis would have been happier to have died here. If he were to be killed in an attempt to assassinate an adventurer like me with envy and jealousy, and found out that he had lost his head from both shoulders, he would have died as a nobleman.)

　Ray muttered privately, but it was easy to predict that Renojis would not appear in the light in the future, even if he had survived here, because he had exposed his uncouth appearance as a nobleman.
　Or he could have made a name for himself as a knight or an adventurer, depending on his pride. However, if you don't have both arms, you can't do such a thing.

(Well, as long as there are magic items in this world, there is a possibility that there will be prosthetic limbs... anyway, I won't be involved with him anymore, so you can do whatever you want.)

　He turns his gaze to Renojis, who is hugged by eggs for a moment, and turns his gaze away as if he had lost interest at once in a moment.

"And isn't Egg going to take it to Mr. Dusker's?"
"No, my promise to you was until the end of this war, but the Count of Larkes was very different from the nobility I had in mind." I'm going out with him a little longer.
"A little more?"
"Oh, I've been invited to be in charge of the intelligence and other matters of the Larkes. More than half of the wolves in the grass were hired with me."
"Well..."

　Ray opens his eyes slightly after hearing unexpected words.
　There was no word of Renojis in his eyes, but he was completely out of sight.

"The one who used to be a thief before is not in the possession of the nobles this time. I think I'll hire him."

　Egg shrugs his shoulders and opens his mouth to some envious murmur.

"If you really want to... if you don't mind giving up as an adventurer, I'll welcome you." Well, now I'm going to disappear. for I must bring it to Larkes."
"Oh, so be it," and the others -- I hope they'll be undead and wander around the Celemus Plain."

　Ray muttered his eyes to the dead bodies on the ground, and both Egg and Verda nodded as if they were in agreement, and the three of them returned to their positions.
