A Wish to Grab Happiness

Episode 257: The City of Night and the Infiltrator

Press the knife against the guard's neck and open his lips. All this time, a smaller knife is more convenient than a treasure sword. It tames me to suck on my hands.

"Didn't an intruder come to this city today? Or were there any such rumors or reports?"

I say as I tear only one thin skin off my neck. The watchman trembles his legs, and there was no such thing, and if he hadn't even heard it, he replies so. I don't know what you're talking about.

"Oh, you... the hell..."

"Am I the one asking, or you? Which one, I think."

Dare I say, try to weigh my voice down. Push the knife to the neck a little more. Blood licked the neck of the watch.

It's not a good idea to answer questions poorly when questioning someone. Purely, it's better to make him understand better which one is in the position to ask and which one is in the position to obey, the one called interrogation goes well.

The watch nodded as he tried to make my jaw jump on my words, and that's how he obediently opened his lips. I don't know, it's like they haven't taught me how to do it when an enemy hits me. Is it because of Fengguan Phyllos' watch?

"That's how it goes. If you don't lie to me and answer them all, I'll save your life. You don't want to be like your friend."

With the tip ruptured from the neck, it's blood. Look at the corpse sticking around, say. What a painful end. If you're going to die with me, I want you to kill me a little more in peace. At least you're not gonna die of an axe cracking your head open.

After all, he made some inquiries to watch him snort like he was cramped.

Where is Philose-Trait? How many watches are there today? Where Roseau and the others are, how many escorts are there?

The watch looked frightened off and still told me about the washing up lightly. Fine. I wish everyone would be so honest.

Were you frightened of being silent for a while after you responded to my inquiry? The watch continued like this, shaking his throat.

"Phi, if you're looking for Philose-Trait, I'll show you. It's just a short way from here. I wanted to help, too, if I could!

As I turned my eyes to the words and deeds of that watch, I thought, oh, this kind of race is common everywhere.

He understood from my words and deeds that I must have come to rescue Philose-Trait. That's why I said all I had to say to get me in the mood.

That's great, it's really human. I even wanted to slap my hand and admire it.

"No, that's enough. It's bad for your gods, too. So just one message for me."

When I heard the message, I saw the force slipping out of the body of the watch. I guess that's what you thought when you saved me. After extreme tension there is extreme relaxation. The sentiment of relief is also unusual to see so far.

So, to calm you down more, to keep you from spitting out words. I communicated the contents of the message.

- Tell the Altius guy they sent me.

That's all I said, one hand restraining the watch mouth like a snake - pulling the knife in front of me that was letting it get into my neck muscle. The unpleasant sound and feeling of breaking flesh and choosing blood was in his hands.

For a moment, there was a feeling of a watching body bursting in my arms, but it also stopped right away. After a brief burst of black blood from his neck muscle, he, too, just exposed himself with his friend.

After gently wiping the blood, throw the two bodies outside the walls. There will be traces of blood on the walls, but what, during the night? It's so easy to get noticed.

"Didn't you keep your promise that life would help?"

Out of the darkness at night, my voice sounds. That was not the kind of wind to blame, but he seemed to have strong doubts. I saw the voice lord Vestalinu-Guerla, and I said,

"It was on that side that I broke my promise first. Don't you like being a steel princess?"

No, it's not like that, Vestalinu replied briefly. But under the darkness of the night, I could see that the expression was slightly stronger.

That's why I said I shouldn't follow you. The way I think and the aesthetics are too different from Vesterine, who has been raised in the upper classes everywhere of a certain kind, and me, who was born and raised in the mud.

I'll throw my words at Vestalinu, wondering if I'll ever go back now. Add to the evil that it's easier for me to do that too, so it's easy for me to take that option. But Vestalinu never tried to shake his neck vertically.

"My sister is exposing her own heart. Then you can't have my sister in her armor."

Vestalinu didn't try to put out any more words. Shoulder over shoulder, give it back. I really don't like being such a serious person. It seems easy to give, and the opposite language doesn't make sense.

Leaking exhale, look out over the walls of the castle at the full extent of the autonomous city of Philos. Not a big city, but still too big to walk around every corner. Why did Bruder, too, want to throw himself in this? Speaking of which, it seems.

Bruder identified the city of Philos as the enemy, and said he would scout the city once and for all. I'm not sure what the motive is, but you think Vestalinu cared about me? Why do you care if you infiltrate enemy cities?

But if that's the case, we can also leave it on the boulder and turn it back to the crest position. I say, sighing heavily.

"So Bruder said you were just gathering information. I'm not doing anything."

Yes, and Vestalinu nodded small. If it doesn't mean assassinating, etc., it may not be a mess yet.

But if Bruder said he'd gather information, he could walk around Philos until the moment when his life was in real danger. So it doesn't change that we should rendezvous as soon as possible.

When it comes to gathering information, we can expect to target the perimeter of Roseau, which is the heart of this city. So we should dive in with Roseau and rendezvous with Bruder, too.

There was only one catch left in my head. That's the word that the good deeds and the watchmen were saying.

Philose-Trait is noble wherever you go. To be honest, if you're going to hold such a human being, the extent to which you're going to be under house arrest in one room. I thought safety was something that was guaranteed.

But to listen to the voices of the watchmen, they don't. Instead, you should think you're far from safe. Damn, if I had found Blooder, I would have thought so.

Anyway, I don't feel like I'm at the stage of handing Philose-Trait over in the negotiations, etc.

I folded my fingers, put my gloves back on, and that's how I held my hand tight. Well, what's the matter?

Well, either way, I only have my hands to move. Infiltration is possible only in the dark. We have to accomplish this in that limited amount of time.

"Let's move carefully. For those of us who cannot use the lights, darkness is an ally and an enemy."

A serious word, Vestalinu says. That sounds like a word, I honestly thought.

I see the night falls and the lights are only slightly used by the watchmen and guards. There's no way we can use the lights if we're treading illegally into the city. Sometimes you'll be in danger for that.

But I had nothing to worry about. The city at night, the movement of people slightly clamoring in the back streets, even the appearance of windy chickens shaken by the wind, they are all in my hands.

"Don't worry, Princess Iron and Steel. It's my business to be in the dark at night. Instead, let's walk slowly to get things done."

I laughed like I was floating a line on my cheek, and I said so.
