a rebel position not far from the imperial capital.

　Many people originally visited the position because they won an overwhelming victory over the subjugated army sent by Schulz.

　However, the current rebel positions are larger and wider than before.

　Of course, the reason for this is that it is widely rumored that the army dispatched by Cabazid was repelled after the army dispatched by Shrus.

　It is not just a victory.It is an unusual result of war, in which the subjugation force is annihilated without causing any damage to themselves.

　That's why the rebels spread the story extensively, and the crimson-infamous Ray who also carried it out and the flying force led by the crimson were treated as elite, and were widely rumored to raise morale.

　Some of the rebel leaders wanted to hide Ray's presence as much as possible, but others wanted to hide him as much as possible when it came to flying troops.

　elite troops that had been heavily trained by Ray and Seto.Of course, its fighting power is very high compared to ordinary troops, and it could be a trump card in case of emergency.

　There were quite a few rebels who agreed to it, but... in the end, the flying force was also announced.

　The reason was that we needed to raise our morale even a little now, and most importantly, it was true... No, I wanted to give the impression that the rebels were fighting this civil war overwhelmingly in their favor.

　In this area, Thiyur, who is in charge of intelligence manipulation of the rebel forces, overcomes the opposition.

　As a result, many people flocked to rebel positions in search of opportunities from merchants and surrounding towns and villages who heard of the overwhelming advantage of the rebels.

"I understand that, but how about people coming from the imperial capital, where the rebels are going to march?"

"...people are quick on the uptake.There should be no problem if we judge that it is in our own interest even a little bit.There are rumors that the rebels are humane, so I don't think there will be much resistance there."

"That rumor is being circulated by the rebels, isn't it? I don't know if it's true..."

"Because of the rumor, we were able to safely enter the rebel positions.Then, even if you appreciate it, you don't have to blame it."

"But the system..."

　At the words of his partner, Sisty shakes his head slightly and watches the surroundings before opening his mouth.

"Calm down, Moura. At the moment, inconspicuousness is a top priority.In particular, there should be crimson figures in this position. You should try not to stand out as much as possible."

　In fact, Ray is already in the imperial capital, but Moura and Systoy could not find out about it because it was basically hidden.

　However, not to mention Ray, the Gryphon's set stands out.It's hard to hide Ray's absence because he hasn't appeared for a few days.

　Still, Ray's disappearance shows the trust that rebels have placed in him, as there are no opinions that he was killed in the war or that he escaped.

　Naturally, when Ray joined the rebels, there were many people who had a grudge against Ray.

　However, Ray has allowed people with such feelings of resentment, hatred, and jealousy to show their ability and achievements.

"But I'm surprised that few people hold a grudge against crimson."

　That's why not everyone has a grudge against Ray as Moula said, but there are still fewer people who express themselves.

"Well, then it may be harder to attack than it was in the imperial capital.But there is no one left behind us."

"Yes,"

　The task of assassinating Ray as a bell of repose, we knew it would be difficult to accomplish it with our own ability, but we can't back down here.

　If we step down now, we have to give up even our lives.

"Come on, calm down.The atmosphere is floating around. What we need to do now is the additional request, including the assassination of crimson."

"Is that so? I'm not aware of it myself."

"Sistoy is already thinner and has a sharper face than before, so be a little more careful.

　While rebuking, Moura's eyes show faint sadness and relief.

　poison from a counterattack on Ray when Sistoy attacked him during a competition.

　Despite being a deadly poison, Systoy managed to escape death.

　He was able to escape death, but not completely free from the effects of poison.

　The aftereffects such as loss of appetite and a decrease in physical strength remained in Systoy.

　It was Systoy's potential, but he must have been motivated to recover his physical ability.

　But... even if you've recovered your strength, your fighting power is clearly inferior to before.

　In that sense, he may have been lucky to be given an additional job without being told to immediately start an assassination of crimson.

　While watching the situation of the system, Moula says the name of the object.

"Sobble... I think I said that.It seems to be a very important figure in the First Prince's faction.In fact, it seems that they are hiding their whereabouts quite strictly."

　Moura muttered admiringly.

　I walked around the camp to gather information, but I couldn't find the whereabouts of my goal, Sobul.

　The reason why they don't show any trouble is because they didn't expect to be able to find the location of the target through intelligence gathering.

　The target... yes, the target of the work given to them this time.

　However, even though it is a target, its meaning is very different compared to Ray.Against Ray, the target of assassination...

"I've heard that Sobul is a person who likes brains, doesn't he? If possible, I'd like to help him out of this position.

"Don't talk nonsense.In the first place, we're failing on the crimson issue.It also means kindness, so I have to do my job properly."

　Yes, Sobre was a target in the sense that he would rescue them.

　The two men were ordered to rescue Sobre because, as Moura said, they have not yet achieved the case of the assassination of crimson.

　though the request for Sobre's rescue itself was chosen by a faction led by Count Schwyndel as one of the souvenirs of the request for the cooperation of the subjugation of Kabazid.

(Still, it's definitely better to save someone named Sobble than to make someone crimson look good.In the meantime, if Systoy recovers even a little, we will be able to make our wishes come true.)

　For Moula, who wants even a little time to recover from the system, it could have been said that she wanted it.

　What is more fortunate for these two is that their soul-bomb collaborator—or, more precisely, the one they acquired—is near their target, Sobble.

　I was very lucky to say that I could leave the hardest part of my job like this, the act of finding the location of the target, completely up to others.

　However, since the collaborators themselves still need to be here, the difficulty in rescuing them was that they had to be there.

(Well, there's no point in helping if you do everything over there.)

　Even Moura fully understands that their turn came because they were in a state of moderate difficulty.

"Well, I've seen around the camp with this.To be honest, I didn't expect it to be this big."

"Well, it's not as big as a village.It's so big that if you don't do it well, you'll think it's that kind of town... but it's an element that we can go ahead in our favor."

"I know. With so many people, I think I can easily get into the crowd if something happens.But isn't it about time to meet up? They probably don't want to take up much time, so let's move before we're late."

　In response to Moura's words, Sistoy nods silently and starts walking together.

　The meeting place is a bar set up in a camp.

　However, since this is a rebel position, even a bar is not a solid building.

　It's just a place where tables and chairs are arranged.

　It was a success every day because everyone could use it comfortably.

　However, if it rains only at bars outside, it will naturally be closed, and in such cases, they will buy alcohol and drink in their tents.

　Fortunately, today's weather was beautiful in autumn and the bar was not closed.

"It might be a good idea to try something. I heard there are pretty good dishes."

"...that's right."

　She didn't have much appetite yet, but she still understood that Moura cared about her and told her, so she nodded honestly.

"Well, this is the bar, you know... well, I think it's not as bad as I imagined.I don't know how many people drink during the day.

　Arriving at the bar, Moura looks around with a silent system toy.

　The eyes are not counting the number of customers at the bar, but rather a landmark.A person with a blue sheath and a slightly flashy long sword called a red handle on the table.Looking for that person...

(Yes)

　I went without hesitation to the seat where the person I saw was.

　Sistoy also silently follows Moula.

　Moura alone may get involved in drunks, and her role is as a bodyguard.

　...but Moura is also a member of the bell of repose.Unlike Sistoy, fighting is not a regular job, but it can be dealt with by as many as ten or twenty drunks.

"Can I sit down here?"

　When Moura asks him with a smile and a way of speaking to a person he is not close to, he looks at the glass he was drinking.

　He is dressed as a typical soldier, and does not look particularly noticeable.

　a man of figure who would soon be buried among the soldiers.

　But if you see the man interrogating Sobre, you will remember him as the one who brought the lyot to you.

　The soldier nods slightly when he looks at the bracelet Moura wore as proof of meeting.

"Oh, I was drinking alone anyway.If you can drink with a beautiful woman like your sister, it's all you want.Why don't you join them? There aren't many kinds of alcohol in the bar in the camp, but there's a good selection of sake."

　In response to the soldier's words, Sistoy sits next to Moura, who sits in a chair without answering anything.

　He seems to be showing himself as Moura's bodyguard.

　Originally, it was a system toy that even wanted to stand behind the moorah, but if you do that, it will stand out.

　That's why he was sitting next to Moura and showing himself to the people around him except for the man in front of him.

　If you order ale and light food from a waitress who comes to pick up your order, it will be delivered immediately.

　As soon as possible, Moura opens her mouth while drinking ale.

"Nice to meet you. Should I say so?"

"Yes, but it's better if we don't have a relationship as much as possible.Considering that, I think it's better not to be too close."

"Hmmm, that's true.But you need a greeting, don't you? ... Anyway.Can we assume that we already know where the target is?"

"Yes, but the lookout is rather strict.A soldier with confidence in his arms is watching.If you're going to take him out, kill all the guards, or take the target out without realizing it at all.Well, I'll leave it to you to decide which one to choose, but I want you to choose the latter."

　Moura tilts her head slightly to the man who tells her while reaching for the dried meat on the plate.

　It was a deliberate performance, but the soldier could not detect it.

"Why?"

"I am certainly your collaborator.But that doesn't mean I don't feel anything about them here.Isn't that natural because we live together?"

"... I see.Let me be concerned about that.If we break through head-on, we could fight against the rebels by ourselves.If possible, I'd like to talk more peacefully... but I need more information about the area around the target."

　I think I'll be able to do something about it if I use dolls.With that in mind, Moura asks, and the soldier gives the information he knows that it will guarantee the lives of his colleagues.
