In the Lietis military...
The sky, which hadn't cleared up for a long time, suddenly began to drizzle. In the place where the guards of the Prince's Palace often rested, Yuri sat alone on a stone bench, thinking.
These days, people often ask me about what happened in Tacoma. Actually, I've already told them everything I know, but I can't remember the rest...
Although His Royal Highness the Prince kept telling him to think about it slowly, Yuri, who had always lived in an aristocratic circle, could not help but see it.
His Royal Highness the Prince also has a limit to his patience. If there is no news for too long, he may be expelled from the Prince's Palace or sent to the border to guard the border.
I originally had family in Tacoma, and if I was exiled to a distant place, I would never be able to go back!
"Yuri, what are you doing here? Isn't it your turn to change shifts?" someone shouted from the other side.
As a person from the southeast, Yuri's living habits are indeed different from those of the locals, and his appearance is also different from that of people from the north. People from the southeast generally have yellower skin and are not tall.
"Oh, all right. I'll be right there..."
The soldier who came over saw that he looked a little dazed and asked again, "What's wrong? Did you remember something?"
In fact, all the soldiers in the same camp with Yuri were assigned a special mission. Everyone knew about it except Yuri himself. However, perhaps he should have noticed it but was just unwilling to say it out loud. After all, this was the key to his ability to live in the city of Lietis.
All the soldiers who were assigned to the other side were secretly informed that if the other side talked about anything about the city of Tacoma, they had to write it down and report it, and they could also get rewards for it... Over time, they formed a habit of asking each other what they remembered every day.
However, Yuri always shook his head at this time.
He couldn't remember, or perhaps he didn't want to say it for the time being. He was worried that if he said it, he would be sent to the border, but if he didn't say it, he would still go to the border after a long time, so he would always say a little bit when he remembered something, and say a little for a few days until he got news from Tacoma and then secretly ran back.
"You can't remember anything at all?"
"I can't remember. At that time, I always felt groggy and my head seemed to be unclear..."
He had always avoided it this way, and even the soldiers who asked about it had gotten used to it.
"Forget it, let's go. Judging from the weather, the rain will probably not stop until tonight, but it's a good thing that it's sunny and raining at the same time..." said the soldier, looking at the sky.
The light rain at this moment was accompanied by the sun. There was even a rainbow on the horizon, and the moon could be vaguely seen...
What is this called?
The soldier couldn't remember clearly, but the scholars often mentioned when studying astronomical phenomena that sometimes the moon could be seen even during the day.
"Let's go...what's wrong with you?" I turned around and saw that Yuri had not moved.
"I...I seem to remember something!"
"What?!" he asked anxiously, "Tell me about it quickly."
"moon……"
"moon?"
"Several things that looked like the moon appeared in the sky..." Yuri's thoughts once again fell into that day when he last saw the sky.
………………………………
The sky gradually brightened.
Sean looked outside the door and found that the surroundings were relatively safe. At least he didn't encounter those demonic goatmen again!
"It's safe outside for now." He turned around and said to the mercenaries who were lying around the room, feeling sleepy.
"You really didn't catch up?!!"
Hearing the sound, someone stood up hurriedly, his eyes were bloodshot. Many people couldn't sleep all night long, and even closing their eyes for a few seconds would feel like a long time, and then they would suddenly force themselves to wake up.
"They don't seem to be able to move during the day," Sean explained.
Thinking back to the scene of last night, even now I feel a chill down my spine...
Amidst the loud cry, a ball of green fire illuminated the fog, and then an even larger goat man walked out of the fog, almost ten meters tall, followed by another smaller goat man.
As for the goat man who was besieged by everyone, he was just one of the younger brothers.
It was then that Sean realized that the skill [Call~] was actually calling out to his companions...
Glancing at the people in the room...
There were only ten people who could walk here, and most of them were ranged professions, so they had a chance to escape. When the huge demon goat man appeared, almost none of the melee mercenaries could survive.
Even that Lucard!
At this time, Jonathan also walked out from the corner of the wall to look outside. Sure enough, it was safe and the goat people did not chase him.
"Are they active at night?"
"Maybe..." Sean said.
He couldn't really answer the other party. The reason he made such a guess was because he didn't find any signs of being chased when he ran out. They ran for nearly two hours and only stopped to rest after entering the deserted village.
It was just half an hour ago.
"No! In that case, we have to go out during the day. I don't want to stay in this crappy place for even a minute." Many people were woken up and wanted to leave after hearing the speculation that the demon goat man might only be active at night.
"Now? How can it be that easy? How do you know they aren't waiting in the woods? You all probably sensed the woods' peculiar aura when you passed by yesterday. Now think about it, are they really not there?"
