"What ceremony? Do you know anything? I remember that you were the first one to stand up and say there was danger last night... You were also the first one to run away with people. Do you know any news?" One of the mercenaries stood up and asked.
"Yes, I remember that too..."
"I remember your weapon, it's you!"
Many people also stood up at this time.
"What do you know? Why didn't you tell us? We have lost so many team members because we were betrayed by you guys who knew the inside story." The guy said angrily.
Sean looked at the other person carefully. Wasn't this the person who argued with Lucard to stay last night?
interesting.
Yesterday he was clearly clamoring for a group of people to stay with him, but now he has changed his attitude like this.
"Really? I remember you asked someone to stay with you yesterday." Sean said with a smile, but his expression was obviously not very good when he looked at the other person's face.
"This...isn't it because of you guys? Since you all knew something was going on, you should have told us earlier..."
"Yes, since you know everything, you should have told me earlier."
The few people accompanying them all agreed with each other's opinions.
Sean didn't immediately refute it, but his own mercenary team members stood up...
"Sir Sean came with us from Lietis City and asked us a lot of questions along the way. He's also a Silver-rank bounty hunter, so he's definitely more sensitive to danger than we are."
As soon as Jonathan mentioned the title of bounty hunter, many people looked over with surprise.
Especially since the only girl Sean had seen in the crowd also turned her attention to this side...
"No one knows what the situation is like in the southeast, otherwise the Prince and the Grand Duke wouldn't have sent someone here first. But I have heard some rumors from the wizards."
I can't spend too much time talking about my identity as a bounty hunter, after all, that's not my real job.
"There are some things that I only gradually found suspicious after coming here, so I'll take this opportunity to talk about them..." Sean didn't intend to hide too much about the news he heard from the soldiers.
Ever since meeting Frelia, Sean felt that some news was more meaningful when shared. It was better to have more people ponder it than to ponder it alone. Of course, this also depended on the situation. Right now, sharing some information would help calm the tense crowd present.
Sean recounted everything he had said about the Night Circus and the surviving soldiers in the southeast, including the goat man and the stars above his head... Of course, he said the source of this information was a wizard friend who was present at the time.
"I never understood what it meant for the stars to return to their correct positions. Now I see... maybe..."
I didn’t say anything further, but many people should be able to guess the conclusion.
Who would have thought that the sky in the Tacoma area would be like this...
"Then what should we do now? Master Sean." Jonathan and others looked to him for answers again.
Now the stars have appeared, and they are really moving (returning to their positions) as the soldiers said. I just don’t know what this means! Some kind of ritual? Or summoning something else?
The only thing Sean could think of was the Eye of Chaos he had seen in Koga City. Could it be the Immortals again? Or... the Wizards' Council...
In fact, deep down, Sean was very reluctant to associate the wizards with the current situation, but he couldn't help but think about it. Since the time in Koga City, he would occasionally think of what Bachler had not finished saying and why a wizard like him would come to his town, etc.
And now it seems that although the Tacoma area is much larger than my own town, isn't it generally just the border on the other side?
The situation was the same as in Koga City and Telemian. I remember that Frelia had asked the three girls to go to a small village here to discover the night circus and later became [frozen~].
If the location is slightly changed, these things can also happen in the city of Koga or the town of Telemian.
Sometimes Sean even thought that if he hadn't used his favorability to find Bachler in the crowd, perhaps the subsequent story might not have ended this way, including the incident in Koga City...
Giant rats, smuggling of gunpowder, riots, etc.
Somehow, my own abilities helped me change the outcome many times.
"The goat people won't let us go back so easily, so we can only go to Tacoma City." We will probably meet those goat people again if we go further out. Since they want to let us in, it is probably because of these ten planets above their heads.
The stars are back...
"Sir Sean is right. If we go out now, we'll probably be dead. If we continue towards Tacoma City, we might even run into the Black Feather Knights and the Wizards. It will be much safer with them. If something really happens in this area, I believe the Empire will send more troops."
At this time, Alphonse, who had been silent, also stood up and spoke. It was obvious that he agreed with Sean's point of view.
"While it's daytime now and the goat people won't be out, we should hurry up and get on with our journey instead of continuing to argue about meaningless things here..."
There were only a dozen or so mercenaries left, and with no better option, they could only follow the team.
At this time, everyone was in a small village near the Tacoma area. If they continued to go south, they would officially enter the area of Tacoma City. The distance was long, so they had to speed up their journey. Otherwise, they didn't know whether those present could hold on until night fell.
