A young man came to us out of the blue and accused us of what we had done in the past, forcing us to make a decision.
As time passed and no one could say anything, he gently put his sword back in its scabbard and said, "I'll wait a little while so you can make up your mind. He then walked out of the village.
No one could answer whether this resolve was to free the beastmen and atone for their sins, or whether it was to antagonize him, or something else.

At first, none of the villagers opened their mouths, but when one of them began to speak, a variety of opinions began to emerge.

The number of beastmen in our village is two men from the rabbit tribe, two men and a woman from the cat tribe, and two women from the fox tribe. You can give them that much .... "Idiot!

I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with this. That's not going to be enough!

"Then what are you going to do? We may be able to negotiate with the beastmen of the villages and settlements, but the beastmen slaves of the city are beyond our control!

Then there's nothing we can do!

Well then, let's just pretend he listens to us and get rid of him. Then we'll get rid of him.

Maybe we can get rid of him by surrounding him with all of us.

Have you forgotten what they did to the men earlier? They'll kill you this time!

But this time we have knights! But this time we have knights! But this time we have knights!

The knights poured cold water on the villagers who were saying whatever they wanted to in order to protect themselves.

I think I'll pass. I'll pass. I'm no match to begin with. "I'll pass.

"I'd rather do as I'm asked and suffer to death. "If we're going to die, we'd better do it alone.

"If we're going to die, let us do it on our own. If you're going to die, do it on your own.

"I'm as reckless in battle as you three. You're as reckless as the three of you.

"Don't do it, Garv. A war you don't stand a chance in is no laughing matter. Stop it.

"I don't want to make a bad impression for later negotiations. "I don't want to make a bad impression for later negotiations.

"I don't want to make a bad impression for later negotiations.

"Is he really that strong?

"How many warriors do you know that can single-handedly annihilate a medium-sized goblin horde and goblin riders, or single-handedly subdue a weaponless opponent without killing more than a few? Do you know that some of the men who were subdued were also involved in the war in question?

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this. If you're going to fight a battle, it's not worth it unless you can devise a plan so that no one dies. But how do we get out of the city?

I'm not sure how you're going to get the beasts out of the city, but I don't think they're going to listen to anything we civilians have to say. But how are you going to free the beasts from the city?

The air was heavy with gloom.

You can't expect him to stop just because there are a lot of people or because his status has risen a bit. You know that in this day and age, relationships are more important than anything else, right? Above all, I don't want to die. I don't want to die.

A subtle atmosphere of dry laughter or something indescribable spread around us, and the discussion ended with an air of having no choice but to do it.
