Path of The Dragonborn

"Already entered the fortress of Oloklos." After seeing that there were no noble soldiers around, Heliga and Levi immediately found a corner where they could hide their sight. Heliga picked up the communicator and said to the other end.

"Hmm...received." Fei's voice came from the communicator, "The next step is to wait for your further signal, and then send a message to Her Royal Highness and Eusis?"

"Yeah...but it may also be a retreat signal." Heliga said deliberately.

"Impossible... that person is not the opponent of the two of you." Fei sternly rejected Heliga's reverse flag, "Besides Levi had said it long ago? The opponent is a belligerent on the surface, but in fact it is very Accept it if you know how to see it."

"Well... just to avoid tension and get active together." Heliga smiled and said.

"That... Heliga..." Masha's hesitant voice came out-she wanted to mention this before, but now she felt that the timing was not right.

"Don't worry... Martha. If the opponent is the "North Hunter", I will be more merciful. "However, Heliga knew exactly what Martha was worried about. "Aren't they doing things for money?" So as long as they see that this remuneration is not easy to get this time, won't they let them retreat? They do not have the need to carry on with us. "

"So... I beg you. I'm sorry to make such a rude request..." Martha's voice was grateful, and gradually weakened. After confirming the problem with the communication signal with the Philippines again, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Heliga cut off the communication. Afterwards, Levi's plain question came in his ear: "How do you plan to do it?"

"You said I promised Martha?" Heliga asked knowingly.

"This is war... It's too stupid to be merciful to opponents in war." Levi just said the fact indifferently.

"Yeah...so you didn't promise her, I understand it. Because you are not sure if you can keep yourself when the hunters gather and attack." Heliga nodded, "So what do you want to do? It's all your business, I won't care about you. However, it is not necessary to do that."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"It's very simple...like what I just said. As long as they don't see the slightest hope of winning, they should retreat."

"If they retreat just for this reason, then their reputation will also be affected." Levi continued, "Even if most of them are used to saving their lives, there are also some radicals who have different ideas from others. ."

"If that's the case, then this is their own choice-since they chose to stick to death, it has nothing to do with us." Heliga said naturally. Levi was silent, and then nodded: "Well...I knew you would say that."

"What?" Heliga didn't understand Levi's overtones.

"... Do I have to point it? Then I'll just say it... If you tell me that you have no other idea about the land that has been destroyed by natural disasters, I won't believe it at all." After a while of silence, Levi still decided to make it clear, "Otherwise, even if it’s just to sell favors to friends, it won’t be... She is not the kind of person who has the mentality of an idiot Madonna. She has already recognized the battlefield and some things that exist in this world. It’s something, and I’ve already accepted this in my heart. If it’s a young man who just joined the hunting business, he might still have a trace of luck and hope for the battlefield, but as I spent this time with her, I saw that, Although there are still some innocence, she is generally not rigid."

"What then?" Heliga did not nod or refute, but motioned Levi to continue.

"So, in this case, she would make this request-and it is for you rather than me-then there is only one possibility, and that is that she believes you will do that, isn't it?"

Heliga was silent.

"As far as I know, you are not the kind of person who would give others kindness on the battlefield casually...especially in the previous Liber incident." Levi continued, "relentlessly obliterated." To tell the truth, the hunting soldiers under the group really surprised me. You don’t have any special malice towards them, you just simply did what was taken for granted—then, such you would be so open to the "North Hunter" who is also the enemy, it must be because of some kindness. What's the reason? According to my speculation, I think you want to create your own good feelings for the people of Northumbria, so as to satisfy your future thoughts and plans-you guessed it wrong. "

"...Levy. You are really a poor man if you don't engage in politics." Heliga laughed bitterly, tacitly acquiescing, "Yes... I'm really interested in Northumbria. It's not just about These people would rather use their own lives to give their relatives in their poor hometowns the respect of people who live a better life. More importantly, I have seen the great potential of this country and this nation."

"Even in adversity, I never gave up hope..." Levi sighed, "but you should also know what role the empire plays in this."

"...Refusing to recognize the legitimacy of the democratic government after the destruction of the Grand Duchy, and to provide support for "The Hunter of the North"... Of course I understand this. But there is no benefit in doing so..." Heliga shook his head, Northumbria turned into a wasteland, and the trade blow to the northern part of the empire was a big blow, and the Northumbrians were being wiped out. Before the disaster, it was never a warlike nation, nor did they show opposition to the empire in the geopolitics of some areas in the eastern part of Norder because of the influence of the Republic like the Nord Plateau. Therefore, they should have been one. Very good neighbor, but the imperial government's actions are completely opposite, which is very puzzling, "So, there must be something hidden behind this. "

"That's it... You want to take this to someone who has the secret..." Levi didn't continue speaking, both of them knew it well.

"Like what I just said...this is just my own arbitrariness. I will not interfere with your approach. If you feel necessary, you can kill the "North Hunters" and do what you should do. thing. But I have already figured out how to do it. "Heliga turned her head and looked at the noble coalition soldiers who had filed out of a barracks at some unknown time.
