30: Judom Lankers

"Hmm? Oh, it's been a long time, Wel"

"We're out of time, Master Judom."

It is a man named Judom Lankers who is welcoming Wells, captain of the second unit, the [Human Nation Victorias] 's national army, with a generous smile.

He grows a fine white moustache, but is only forty-eight years old. The gray hair that is being cut short has never been discolored due to old age, but the ground.

The soft look has an atmosphere that would give the child peace of mind as well. But when you get up, you know exactly how different you look.

At a height that would exceed two metres, its arms, forged out to work, are of steely hardness and sturdiness.

I wear clothes, but I wrap my whole body around the armor of the muscles that are just ripped off, so much so that if I put a little effort into it, I think it will tear.

"Wahh, stop it! Stop it! Now you're a fine captain!

Judom slaps Welle on the back with a bang and a casual laugh.

But even though he's going to be tapping lightly, he's going to have enough shock for Wells to get his HP gradually shredded.

"Gohohohoho! Oh, it looks the same, Master Judom."

While rubbing his back, Welle is smiling happily.

"What's up? It's unusual for you to come here."

"One thing, I came for a favor. To you, Alliance Master."

This is the guild, and it is the guild master's room that has the two of us now. Seeing Welle's serious face, Judom flaunts his shoulder.

"Well, trouble again? Come on, come on, I'm retired. I'll leave the front line to the future young man."

"What are you talking about? Even now, there are adventurers in line with Judom."

"Wah! That's a buyout. A buyout! Did you hear that? He summoned you, didn't he, brave man? These are their times, aren't they?

Judom asks with a slight sharp eye, but doesn't notice that, Welle.

"No, times are always looking for the strong. Especially a strong man like you."

Listen to Welle's answer, just a little cloudy Judom, but I'll get right back to it.

"That's why my time is over. I'm a dodgy bastard in the SS ranks there now. You can't just move SSS like you once did."

I say to myself with an objectively expressive look that includes worries.

"Be modest. … Earlier Judom said that the front line would be left to future young people"

"Oh, I said that."

"I'd like you to teach those future young people how to fight."

"............... brave people?

"Yes."

The two stare at each other for a while.

Judom laughs nostalgically when he sees Wells bumping into such serious eyes.

"You have the same eyes then. And then you volunteered to be my disciple."

"In the end, I was turned down. Lady Judom said this to me then. You're not enough for my apprentice. I must disciple only those who can fight with the same eyes as myself."

"I thought you said that?

I leaked the word that I was young, too, and Judom is smiling in the light.

"This time, there have appeared those who can fight with the same eyes as you."

Judom turns off his grin and replies to Welle's words "... well".

"Please ask them for a professor! For the future of our 'human race'!

"For the future of the 'human race' ……?"

Judom looks at him with powerful eyes. Those are the eyes I've only seen straight ahead.

Judom takes out the pipe and lights the fire. And slowly exhale purple smoke.

"Hey, well."

"Yes."

"Do you know how I became Gilmouth?

"It's... No, I don't know"

"Because Gilmouth, when things happen, can command with the same authority as the king."

"Dear Judom..."

"When I was an adventurer, I always thought. I wonder why this country, no, this continent keeps fighting."

…………

"I was hoping that one day someone would make a peaceful world. You're totally on the other side. But the strife between the races intensified, and the fire broke out in the land. Of course I fought. Because there was something to protect. But where do you think Gilmouth was at that time?

You know, well has a bitter look, too.

"Gilmouth was far from this country. He abandoned the country. Using Gilmouth's authority, he fled to save himself. As a result, the adventurer's control was delayed and several lives that would have been saved were lost."

"Dear Judom..."

"It was the king who nominated that Gilmouth."

Judom's words, and Welle pushes silence.

Because the King is responsible for nominating Gilmouth like that.

And it is also Judom who was angry at himself for failing to discern Gilmouth's sincerity.

"So I became desperate and strong and went for Gilmouth. In the event of an incident, he insisted on authority to the King so that he could move firmly. And Gilmouth could exist as another king"

…………

"I aspired to be the only one who could correct the king's mistakes. It was the best I could do for an adventurer. But..."

I grip my fist with regret. Watch how it goes. Wells opens his eyes.

Even now, the King's decision is still absolute. However, Gilmouth is now in a better position to make decisions about what is at stake for the adventurer.

Judom speaks quietly and with a chilling gaze toward Welle.

"Again, the king made a mistake."

"Become! What are you saying!

Suddenly the King's criticism began, so Welle raised his surprise. Because more than that, no matter how many guild masters, it can be a crime of insult.

But Judom utters his words in a chilling manner without worrying.

"What did the king do at the cost of three lives? No, one is barely alive."

That's how you gaze at Wells. Come on. I'm telling you with my eyes to answer.

"Oh... that's..."

"The Brave Summons...... Surely this country is in crisis. But I advised the King that I had something to do before I could summon the brave."

"That's what...?

Well looks at Judom with a frown as if he didn't know. And the words that Welle should be stunned with are released from Judom.

"Why are you kicking their rapprochement negotiations?

"Harmony... Negotiation? What are you talking about?

"Hmm, haven't you been informed? Well, of course."

For Christ's sake, Judom shakes his head like a shudder.

"Duh, what do you mean, Master Judom!

"A long time ago, the Devil Tribe sent me a good book of harmony."

"Stupid! I've never even heard of that!

"You must be crushing it up a lot."

Speak with purple smoke all the time.

"Yes, no, but! Even if that's true, I can trust the protégé from the Demon Nation!

"Why don't we have a conversation?

"... Huh?

"I don't know if I can do this."

"It's..."

Wells can't argue that he seems to fully understand that it is an honest argument.

"I know how you feel. I also know it was on the other side of the traitor a long time ago when they gave me my parent's book and I came to the talks. But before you sacrificed your own daughter, something still happened?

"But, Your Majesty, with the thought of a severance,"

"Losing my daughter can't be synonymous with cutting my bowels!

It changes from the gentle look I had just had, and gives me a tremendously powerful look. Wells seeps sweat all over his body and unconsciously trembles on his body. I thought this was the hegemony of a retired adventurer...

Judom sighs as he shakes his head.

"Even if you didn't, if you'd talked to me, I could have followed you anywhere in the conversation. You guys don't know, but there are good guys in The Beast Nation, even in The Demon Nation. Most of them don't know that."

"Ha, sure, that's true, too. But also the King of the Demons is trying to destroy the Humans."

"The truth?

"Yes!

"Then you know this information? That the King of the Demons has taken his place."

"... Huh?

"If the king takes his place, the contents will change. The protégé was also sent by the king in his place. But still, the king didn't even think deeply about my story, and he called others from other worlds."

"I can't believe it's someone else... you brave men are for us"

"Risk your life...?

…………

"I don't know what the other world was like. But I don't think those brave men will really worry about this world until they hang their lives on the scale. If I were you, I'd kidnap you guys on my own, leave you guys alone and go on a journey."

That's exactly what the boy called the sun color does, but Wells is shocked and solidified by Judom's words.

"But you brave men are serious..."

"We haven't had a life loss phase yet, have we? How many of you know despair and can still stand up?

…………

"They have a hometown, too, don't they? If the king who called you really has to do it, isn't it sending him back intact?

Welle has his eyes closed with his face down. It's a sign of intent that there's no longer room for objection.

"I heard there was another guy who was summoned, but he said he had no obligation to obey, so he went somewhere?

"Oh, yes."

"I... can still believe him better than some brave guy."

"Duh, what do you mean!

Welle seeps anger into his words so that it cannot be overheard.

"If you don't know that, it means you're still immature, well."

"Dear Judom..."

Judom then makes the same soft look as he did when he visited, putting a pipe on his desk.

"Go home, Wel."

"But!

"Think again about what you need to do now, and now you will speak to the king."

"Such a horrible thing..."

"How can a man who doesn't listen to his men and friends save the world?"

After that, Judom didn't speak another word.

Welle walked out of the room with dismay.

"Judom Lankers?"

"Oh, Judom Lankers. A former adventurer named Shock King."

Apparently it's two names, but the sun color frowns when I hear that from Anold.

"What a smell of cooking..."

"Chiu?

"Nothing"

"Really? Well, you should remember that. He's not as personable as he wants to be."

"Well, there's a bastard blinded by his status and honor."

"So that's not who he is! I've been taken care of, too. A long time ago."

Anold looks like he sees the distance in a nostalgic way.

"I don't care about a guy like that, but you're saying I can't get through the barracks if I stay like this?

"I don't care...... ha, yeah, it's gonna take a lot of time to get through"

Discuss what to do now with the face of the day. Looks like we can handle this if we wait, [Victorias] But if it's going to take a week, that means more here. Exactly boring.

When the sun color is thinking of a way to open it, Anold speaks out to Winkaa, who is playing with Hanemaru.

"Hey, Wi."

"Hmm?"

"What are you going to do now? Are you gonna cross the border with us?

I decided to travel with Winkaa under odd edges, but she has her purpose. It's about looking for a father.

Wincah liked the color of the sun and decided to serve the color of the sun as his own king, but Anold asks if it's okay to leave it to the flow to follow.

"... no?

Tilt his neck cocoon with the same invisible expression of emotion as the sun color.

"Yes, no, I can't, okay? Dad, maybe you're in the human world, right?

There are three continents in this world [Idea], each connected by a bridge. the human world the continent inhabited by the 'human race'. the beast world through the continent inhabited by the 'Beast People'. Each of the continents inhabited by the 'Demon Nation' is called the Demonic Realm.

Even if he crosses the border to the beast world, Anold suggests that if his father is in the human world, he should stay here until he examines the human world again.

But Winkaa shakes her head beside the boom.

"and I'm not in the human world"

"Oh, really?

"I feel like..."

"You're kidding!

Anold's sharp penetration echoes indoors. But keep it up, Winkaa continues.

"You hit me a lot, don't you?

"No, you don't mind me saying that... I mean, the criteria for judgment are good?

"Mmm... because wi, I want to be more with everyone"

"Fugu!?

Suddenly Anold held him down with his hands as if he had been pierced through his chest.

And whispering, "Those eyes are against the rules, wi... they're against the rules in the rules... hehe" like dangerous people.

"... is Osama okay?

The sun color just makes me sick and sends a gaze to Muir.

"Uh... as usual...?

Apparently Muir is well tolerated by this anode and hasn't panicked. Though it is quite dramatic.

Surely Winkaa's ascendancy would have been remarkably destructive for Loricon (who thinks only of the sun color) anords.

(Keep it stuffy. If I die, I'll leave it for future generations.)

The sun color was determined to pass on to the later world as a great man with an extremely funny way of dying.

Anold, who had been bored for a while, wiped the sweat off his forehead, saying, "It was dangerous,"

"And you're coming with me anyway, wi"

"Ooh."

Winkaa affirms while lifting Hanemaru. Hanemaru is barking to endorse it too.

"So the only problem is clearing Hiiro... any ideas?

"Well, not"

In fact, if you're curious about it, "Character Magic" can be convenient.

"For example, you can fly over the sky and cross the border."

"... can the sky fly too you... I knew it was cowardly wow"

It's practiced to actually be able to fly in the air.

But when it comes to flying over the sky and crossing the barrier of detention, it's likely that it will stand out no matter how. If you are judged a suspicious person and you are magically shot down, I beg your pardon.

We need to figure out if there's a slightly less conspicuous way.

It would be best if we could find something that doesn't stand out even if we fly in the sky.

"We have to act cautiously for now. Only at a time like this can we get into trouble."

Everyone snorts at Anold's heavy words.

It would be best if we could cross the border sooner or later without anything, but it is also true that from all the experiences we have been involved in, we have a bad feeling about something.

(Well, just hope you get out of jail safely)

The door was knocked when the story came to a close.

This is a temporary dormitory for staff, so everyone's gaze turns to wondering if someone has come to take a nap.

Slowly the door opened, from which he wrapped a dirty robe and a turban-wrapped man appeared on his head.
